Chapter 2695 The fisherman gets a profit

After the brown lion died, Lin Fengzhi found an excuse to lead the imperial army and raid two strongholds under the fourth prince as a warning.

Without an army, the fourth prince would have no real power.

No matter how many people there are, they are just killers and cannot stand out. Compared with Lin Fengzhi, a high-ranking official who controls the imperial army, they are still not good enough.

Lin Fengzhi's move was also seen as a statement.

Although I don’t know who Lin Fengzhi supports specifically, it at least means that Lin Fengzhi is opposed to the fourth prince.

Therefore, many big forces moved further away from the Fourth Prince, making his power weaker and weaker.

Moreover, the sixth prince and the fourth prince have been fighting fiercely recently. The two sides refuse to give in to each other and are very likely to die together with the fourth prince.

The Fourth Prince also became more and more ruthless, and even the princes who did not want to take refuge with him were not spared. He sent someone to poison one of them, and also assassinated him when he took the opportunity to go out.

There was still no movement from Liu Yunyao's side, as if she didn't want to participate in this fight.

But she also did not escape the assassination.

This was not the first time he poisoned her food.

The food all comes from the imperial dining room. Even if Hongling is careful, there will be some oversights.

Sometimes she only found out after eating it.

Fortunately, she had practiced the Heart Sutra of Ten Thousand Poisons in advance. Once the poison was applied to her stomach, the Heart Sutra of Ten Thousand Poisons would automatically activate and turn all the poisons into poison sources.

The fourth prince also sent invisible killers, but as soon as they approached Liu Yunyao's practice room, they were all killed by Xuanwu.

These low-level killers are simply not worth mentioning in Xuanwu's eyes.

Therefore, the fourth prince had no way to deal with Liu Yunyao.

It wasn't until Liu Yunyao consolidated the power of the soul that she learned about the situation outside the palace from Hong Ling.

“It’s already a mess outside.

The fifth prince and the eighth prince were both killed by the fourth prince.

Almost all the black team under the Sixth Prince were killed by the Fourth Prince.

However, the Fourth Prince is not having it easy either. He doesn't have many people he can use anymore.

They killed so fiercely that some ministers with real power now dare not easily choose sides.

All waiting to see the results.

Our forces are all fine and we haven't suffered any major damage.

But they don’t know your attitude. There are rumors that you are ready to give up the fight for the throne..."

Hong Ling talked for a long time before basically explaining the situation outside clearly.

"Where have the Fourth Prince and the Sixth Prince been recently?"

Liu Yunyao asked.

"The sixth prince left the royal city to recruit some mercenaries nearby.

The fourth prince went to the front line again, probably to recruit troops. "

Hongling replied.

Liu Yunyao nodded: "That's just right, let's reap the benefits.

Let's first win over some of the big forces in the royal city.

It's time for me to go out for a walk. You can make arrangements. You don't need to bring too many guards. "

"yes."

Hong Ling also immediately summoned the maid and a small group of guards to wait for Liu Yunyao.

Liu Yunyao called the Nine-Headed Demonic Dragon and Xuanwu, and followed Liu Yunyao openly and secretly.

As soon as Liu Yunyao left the palace, the fourth and sixth princes received the news.

"Sure enough, this girl is going to take advantage!"

The fourth prince said angrily.

However, he was far away now, so he could only let his men who stayed in the royal city gather their experts and ambush Liu Yunyao along the way.

The Sixth Prince did not attack Liu Yunyao again. He was now seriously short of men and no longer had the strength to deal with Liu Yunyao.

We can only recruit people first and then talk about it.

Liu Yunyao first went to visit the big forces he used to have, expressed his attitude, and asked them to continue to support him.

These major forces have retained their strength in this struggle and are happy to follow Liu Yunyao and enjoy the results.

So everyone expressed support.

Liu Yunyao also set his goal to first take down the forces that had previously taken refuge with the Fourth Prince, and let these forces help clear some peripheral obstacles.

Liu Yunyao visited them one by one in person.

Those big forces had been severely damaged in the struggle between the Fourth Prince and the Sixth Prince. Now that Liu Yunyao takes action, they will not be able to hold it back.

Moreover, the fourth prince was also very domineering and did not bring any benefit to these big forces at all.

Now Liu Yunyao is asking people to take action while taking the initiative to recruit, and many of them have surrendered.

In the end, there were only two more difficult forces left.

One is the Fang family outside the royal city.

Although the Fang family does not have an official position, their strength is amazing and they are an established martial arts family.

Fang Feiyan, the only daughter of the head of the Fang family, is engaged to the fourth prince.

They also fully supported the fourth prince and planned to let Fang Feiyan ascend to the position of queen in the future.

Many martial arts cultivators under the fourth prince are from the Fang family.

There is also a big force supporting the fourth prince, which comes from the lineage of the fourth prince's mother.

Lin Yuanan, the deputy commander of the border border, is the uncle of the fourth prince.

The fourth prince went to borrow troops from his uncle before leaving the royal city.

These two forces are the core forces of the Fourth Prince.

If they are not eliminated, it will be difficult for the Fourth Prince to fall.

Liu Yunyao was worried about how to attack these two powerful forces without an excuse, but she was ambushed by martial arts cultivators.

"Catch them alive!"

Liu Yunyao immediately spoke up to remind the Nine-headed Demon Dragon and Xuanwu.

If you speak too slowly, these two monsters will kill you.

So the Nine-headed Demon Dragon and Xuanwu wounded the assassins, and then handed them over to Liu Yunyao to search for their souls.

Liu Yunyao searched one by one and found the martial arts cultivator assigned to the fourth prince by the Fang family.

Later, Liu Yunyao killed all the other assassins, but took three assassins from the Fang family to find Lin Fengzhi.

"Lin Dutong, these three assassins are all members of the Fang family.

Now that the witnesses and physical evidence are all there, I would like to ask Lord Dutong to take action to completely annihilate the Fang family and maintain law and order in the royal city. "

As she said that, she handed over a list of the strongholds where the martial arts cultivators around the fourth prince were hiding in the royal city, as well as the detailed strength and number of the personnel.

Although Lin Fengzhi is the deputy capital commander, his main responsibility is to be responsible for public security in the city.

This matter also happens to be under his control.

Zhengdutong was only dispatched by King Liulin and was responsible for some major affairs of the dynasty.

The reason why Liu Yunyao came to him was because she knew that he and the fourth prince had already had a stalemate, and now they wanted to force him to take sides.

Lin Fengzhi also knew that the matter was serious.

If he takes action against the Fang family, it will be to disturb the foundation of the fourth prince, which is equivalent to directly showing that he is on Liu Yunyao's side.

So he thought about it and said: "Of course it is my duty to maintain public security in the city.

But to go out of the city and annihilate the Fang family, you still need the king's order! "

Liu Yunyao also pretended to be difficult, but in the end she reluctantly agreed with Lin Fengzhi: "Okay! But Lin will not let all the assassins in the city run away, right?"

"Princess, don't worry! We, the Forbidden Army, don't take these little thieves seriously.

Make sure no one can escape! "

Lin Fengzhi patted his chest and assured.

He felt that there was a suitable reason to deal with these little minions, and the fourth prince could not say anything.

Moreover, if he did not touch the core strength of the fourth prince, the fourth prince would not regard him as his mortal enemy, so he was confident in agreeing.
