He went out to relax, but who would have thought he had heard bad news from his hometown.

Chang Xi returned to the Eighth Princess's Mansion in a heavy rain. Seeing his junior brother's strange appearance, the second brother hurriedly held an umbrella to greet him. After knowing that Kunlun Sect Master Ran Buqi fell on the battlefield in Jiayuguan, he stood in the rain blankly and remained motionless for a long time.

He clenched his fists, his fingertips embedded in the flesh without knowing it, and blood and raindrops spread.

The battle for the throne began because of the third prince's return to the imperial city.

The competition for the throne, which is absolutely not very noble, originated from the several drastic reforms of the Ying royal family's system against the crown prince in recent hundreds of years.

The Ying royal family had several extremely short-term situations in history, and the reason was that the crown prince who inherited the throne was too stupid and incompetent. Therefore, in order to prevent this situation, the royal family in later generations adopted an ingenious battle for the throne. Not only could they test the strength of several competitors themselves, but they could also see whether the methods and scheming of the princes and princesses passed, which was also a great test for their respective connections.

As the saying goes, those who have attained power have many helps, while those who have lost power have few helps. Princes or princesses with more connections can often determine the direction of the battle for the throne and even who will eventually fall into.

The battle for the throne can test the ability of young members of the royal family to the greatest extent, but its disadvantages have been secretly criticized by many people. In the battle for the throne, the princes and princesses have all the means for the throne, and they can be said to be using everything they can. As a result, the final winner will not consider leaving other living mouths at all, and they will be wiped out on the spot, so as not to eliminate all the weeds of hatred in the future and regenerate again with the spring breeze.

Hundreds of years ago, Ying Zheng crushed his brothers and sisters with his iron-blooded wrists. After ascending to the throne, he sentenced all the defeated brothers and sisters to death, but he was the only one.

The next day, a minister from the palace came to the Eighth Princess's Mansion and sent a jade talisman.

The minister handed the jade talisman to Ying Zhaojun, squinted his eyes and said, "Eighth Princess, you must keep this jade talisman for the throne with your own eyes."

For most members of the Ying royal family, they only participate in the battle for the throne in their lifetime. Success can ascend to the throne in the near future. Failure will become a pile of unpopular bones under the feet of the ascendant, and no one has the means to touch these things.

Because the only member of the Ying royal family who survived hundreds of years ago was Ying Zheng.

Ying Zhaojun’s impression of the rules of fighting for the throne was that she learned a little bit of the skin from the Qijie Ying Zhiyu several years ago, and she also had more inside information.

The minister with white beard on his chin was obviously prepared. He sighed and probably only the Eighth Princess was still in the dark. He pointed to the jade talisman in Ying Zhaojun's hand and explained: "This jade talisman for the throne was given by Your Majesty. It represents the qualification and identity of the Eighth Princess to participate in the battle for the throne. The reason why you need to keep it properly is that in the battle for the throne, if your jade talisman is robbed or destroyed, you will immediately lose the qualification for the throne and be demoted."

Not only Ying Zhaojun, but Chang Xi and his second senior brother Yun Mo both felt a sudden blow. It turned out that this jade talisman was the key thing in the battle for the throne, which was only a little more difficult.

Chang Xi immediately thought of something bad and interrupted and asked, "I dare to ask the Minister of the Secretariat, if one of the parties is in charge of the battle for the throne..."

The minister, who is rarely called respectfully, smiles and dispels Chang Xi's doubts.

"This young master doesn't need to worry. Your Majesty has set rules. The powerful demon gods' travel realm can support a member of the royal family, but it is prohibited to fight and hold a jade talisman. This jade talisman must be worn by a member of the royal family, otherwise it will be considered a violation."

Chang Xi and the second senior brother looked at each other and let out a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the powerful people in the Shenyou Realm cannot fight or hold jade talismans. Otherwise, those crazy princes would not have the possibility of winning the battle for the throne by the powerful people in the Shenyou Realm?

The third prince Ying Wei was in charge of the vanguard army. Even if he was defeated in Jiayuguan and left Maicheng, it was still not difficult to pick out some powerful people from the army and take them under his command. Especially the second prince Ying Ruhui is good at calculating. Since he can pull up a huge organization like Wuliang, he may have already gathered many trusted followers in secret. And now Zhulu Mountain has returned to the world and is full of talents. Chang Xi does not think that the second prince, who is well-in-law, will miss this great opportunity.

This old minister, who rarely left the palace, was very talkative and patiently answered the questions raised by Ying Zhaojun. It was not until Ying Zhaojun finally had a clear understanding of the battle for the throne that he left the Eighth Princess's Mansion with a clear sleeve.

Ying Zhaojun sat on the railing of the chasing veranda with Qingzhu's support, quietly looking at the blue sky on the courtyard in the yard. She felt unreal in her heart. She was told by the minister that she started a fight in the Weishuiyuan west of the imperial city three days later.

Are you finally going to fight with several brothers who are related to blood?

But when thinking of the seventh sister Ying Zhiyu, Ying Zhaojun's dissipated eyes quickly condensed.

For a better tomorrow in the Demon Realm and for the unfulfilled dream of her sister, she could not fall down here easily, but to do her best for the unattainable throne.

Chang Xi sat on the ground with his back against the railing and said softly: "When I went to Batuo Mansion yesterday, I met the second prince Ying Ruhui who went to pay his respects."

Ying Zhaojun said in surprise: "Has he attacked you?"

Chang Xi shook his head and said, "He gives people a very cold feeling. Compared with Zhang Kuang and Absurd, the third prince Ying Wei, who was exposed by Zhang Wei. But it was precisely because he took the initiative to talk to me yesterday that I also made sure that he was the mastermind behind the scenes of the monster."

Chang Xi smiled and said, "If he is sick and stays in vain and cannot practice, how can he be at ease with the changes in the external situation?"

The second senior brother Yun Mo nodded and said, "Only, a guy who is good at calculating will become uneasy and restless once the situation exceeds his control several times, so he can't help but do something that exposes his position. It can be imagined that this lord of the monster must have been smooth sailing for many years, but when it comes to the most critical battle for the throne, the situation has changed several times, causing him to lose his previous character."

Yun Mo hugged his arms and shrugged his shoulders and said, "After all, they are peers. After all, they are not those old monsters who can lie dormant for a hundred years. He can't hold back."

After realizing it, Yun Mo noticed the young master's breath. He didn't know when it was already the magnificent atmosphere in the late stage of the Living Void Realm. After asking a few questions, he found out the reason. He looked up at the sky and said seriously: "Maybe it is Uncle Ran's spirit in the sky. He saw you running around in the Demon Realm for the hope of the human race, and he gave you the opportunity."
