Since the last time I tried to use Mu Hanyan to make a name for myself in the restaurant, but was forced by Mu Hanyan to be unable to get off the stage, the fifth prince lost all face. laughing stock.
He Qingwei and other aristocratic children are not fools. Seeing that he had not succeeded in his apprenticeship, he was disgraced when he returned to the capital. He felt that there was no future with him, and he became increasingly alienated from him.
But he didn't want to give up his ambition so easily, and he started thinking about other things.
The second generation ancestors of those eight great families can't be counted on, but there are not only eight great families in the capital, other wealthy families are not weak, as long as the descendants of these families are gathered around, the momentum will be strong, I am not afraid that He Qingwei and others will not change idea.
With such cares in his heart, the fifth prince regained his previous fighting spirit. While recruiting the descendants of other aristocratic families, he also recruited strange people and masters from all walks of life in the capital.
It's a pity that the descendants of other wealthy families are not stupid either. Seeing that even the second generation ancestors of the eight great families respect him, how could they easily take refuge in him? How cruel the struggle for imperial power is, if the five princes are really capable of aspiring to the throne, that's all. If he follows him, he may ascend to the sky in one step, but if he is incapable, he will be cheated to death by him, and he will never be able to stand up again.
Therefore, those princes and buddies from wealthy and aristocratic families pretended to be submissive to him on the surface, but in fact they were indifferent and would never give their allegiance to him lightly.
At the beginning, the fifth prince felt quite complacent when he saw how much they respected and saluted him, but then things were not as good as he had imagined.
In desperation, the fifth prince had no choice but to lower his figure by another level, and set his sights on those families in the Jianwei Mansion outside the city. Although these families could not compare with the rich and powerful families in the capital, their strength was not too weak. Once he recruited young masters from various families in Jianwei Mansion, even if they were not famous like Qingwei and the others, their abilities were no worse than them.
The Rong family was one of the small families he recruited, and it was also the first family to pledge allegiance to him.
It's no wonder, because he offended Mu Hanyan, Rong Tianhai was beaten up by Mu Zexian indiscriminately, and he didn't even bother to tell him the reason, and then kicked him away.
The Rong family lost their backing, and those families who were kicked out of the Jianwei Mansion by the Rong family in the past had the idea of revenge. So as soon as the fifth prince opened his mouth, Rong Tianhai immediately brought the entire Rong family to pledge his allegiance to him.
Afterwards, under his call, coupled with Qu Fengting's lobbying, some other small families of Jianwei Mansion also joined the Fifth Prince.
The fifth prince finally found the sense of superiority as a child of the royal family again, and he was in high spirits for a while.
Of course Rong Tianhai would not throw himself at the fifth prince for no reason, he naturally wanted to get benefits from him, and soon begged him to come forward and seize the Fang family market place, one is to drive the Fang family to extinction, and the other is to make an example to others. Cut off the idea of revenge for several other families.
After all, it was the first family to pledge allegiance to him. Even if he wanted to win people's hearts, he would never refuse Rong Tianhai's request.
Of course, having learned the lesson from Mu Hanyan last time, he became more cautious. He sent Qu Fengting to investigate first, and only after they realized that the Fang family was just a small down-and-out family with no backing, did they start to leave.
Unexpectedly, when he came to Fangjiashifang, the fifth prince knew that the barren mountains and wild ridges in Rong Tianhai's mouth had become a cornucopia. Originally, he just wanted to stand up for Rong Tianhai. He bought all the territory around the peak. In order to win people's hearts, he didn't eat alone, but agreed to share it with Tianhai and others.
Rong Tianhai originally just wanted to drive the Fang family to extinction, so naturally he was overjoyed to encounter such a good thing, and the young masters of several other small families were also very excited, and they expressed their loyalty to the fifth prince with tears of gratitude.
It's a pity that their wishful thinking was too early, and they were thinking about how to divide the spoils before they got it.
When we arrived at Fangjiafang City, as soon as we made the request, Patriarch Fang refused without hesitation.
In the past, he would feel a little guilty when he saw Rong Tianhai and others approaching aggressively, but the territory around Fangjia Village was already owned by Mu Hanyan, so why would he feel guilty.
Being rejected by him, the fifth prince and others will inevitably have some coercion and temptation. Although the owner of the Fang family is not afraid of them, he knows that their family power far exceeds his own Fang family, especially the fifth prince who is the leader, is not angry. , so I dare not offend them easily.
Later, being entangled by them was really helpless, so I could only infer that this territory had been sold to others.
The fifth prince didn't quite believe his words, but since the rejection was reasonable and reasonable, he shouldn't be too pushy. After all, he was a son of the royal family, so even if he deliberately kept his name low-key, he couldn't leave a bad name of bullying others.
So he was given a deadline of three days, and he took Nian Anyao, Rong Tianhai and others to Feilai Peak to find out in person. Speaking of Nian Anyao, it was also a great harvest for him during these days. Relying on a pure heart and soul guarding stone bestowed by his father when he returned to Beijing, coupled with repeated lobbying between him and Qu Fengting, he finally convinced the famous The beast master in the capital worked for him.
Later, when the group arrived at Feilai Peak, the fifth prince realized how cheap he had picked up. Hmm... Although the deal hasn't been completed yet, the Fifth Prince already regards Feilai Peak and the surrounding territories as his possessions.
If it was said that he still cared about his reputation and was unwilling to reveal his true identity easily, then now he has made up his mind to get this territory no matter what.
This is a divine beast, even a top-level divine beast that is stronger than the legendary divine beasts. More importantly, this divine beast is reborn with divine sense, not much stronger than ordinary newborn cubs, and can be tamed and tamed completely.
Once he has such a beast, who can stop him from competing for the throne? Perhaps at that time, he would no longer care about the mere An Yun throne, and it would not be difficult to aspire to the world.
The fifth prince had a lot of YY in his mind. Although he tried his best to suppress the excitement in his heart, there was still a hint of blood red on his face, and his cold eyes were as greedy and cruel as seeing a wolf in Xiao Mianyang.
"Brother Tianhai is right. As soon as the Fifth Highness reveals your identity, the old man of the Fang family would dare to push back. At worst, we can wait a few more months until Master Nian is fully prepared before we start." Qu Fengting and the Fifth Prince After getting along for a long time, I can't understand his temperament very well. Seeing the greed and cruelty in his eyes, I guessed his thoughts, and no longer shy away from his identity, and said bluntly.
