Chapter 535: Three Alliances
Before things got worse, Gu Shenwei took actions on both sides He had revealed Wei Song’s plan to the uan Nu’s testiuan Nu must have discovered that he had been sold out, so he had utilized his identity as the advisor of Wei Song to steal several letters between Wei Song and the Court of the Central Plain Auely mentioned his plan to assassinate the Khan in an atteures in his plan was the Dragon King
“It ise to have revealed Wei Song’s plan to Norland,” Fang Wenshi+ said flatteringly Since he had failed to stop the Dragon King and the Naihang Tribe fro each other as enemies, he started to work out other plans He said, “We have not lost this ga Rizhu’s plan will not succeed easily I’ve found a reliable ally for you As long as he is on our side, we can easily defeat King Rizhu and the Golden Roc Fort”
Although they had been writing to each other, Fang Wenshi+ could not include everything in his letters Therefore, Fang Wenshi+ took every chance to report all the infor Even when he dined with the Dragon King, he didn’t stop talking Sometimes, he would coan to understand the overall situation in Norland through these talks
There were over thirty large tribes in Norland After years of collaboration, they had for Wenshi+ named the three alliances, based on their stance and purpose, “The elder son party — King Dari is the leader, ranking first out of the ten lords in Norland According to their tradition, he is the rightful successor of the Khan He has the biggest influence a the ten lords, and about half the tribes overtly support hi Dari protected the Golden Roc Fort, and therefore he is an ene Kuari ranks fourth, but he is the Khan’s favorite grandson On top of that, he has won the support of h so Kuari Once the Khan passes away, the two lords will fight for the throne,” he continued
“The Bystanders — For self-preservation, so for the throne They will also not get involved in the plots and fights between the other two parties Who Dari and King Kuari are in a fierce competition Both parties want to rope in new allies fro lots of attention,” he went on
Fang Wenshi+ sighed and continued, “King Rizhu happens to be the leader of the Bystanders Party He has a special identity He is the only lord from the Queen’s family, while the other nine are from the Royal Family He is called a lord, but he has no claiure Whichever party wins his backing will be invincible Therefore…”
“Therefore, IRizhu,” Gu Shenwei finished his sentence He finally understood what the Military Counselor had meant
“Just for now Don’tRizhu will turn his support to King Dari due to his hatred towards the Dragon King Otherwise, perhaps King Kuari would desert us,” Fang Wenshi+ said
“Do you have any plans?” asked Gu Shenwei
“I think the hatred and revenge between you and King Rizhu is easily solved Gu Lun was the one who killed King Rizhu’s son, so the King only hates the Gu fa Besides, your father worked for the Gu family, so there should be no hatred between the two of you I a could openly claim that the Golden Roc Fort is your only enemy After all, it was the Golden Roc Fort that killed your father No matter as behind the scenes, they never intended to kill a servant fro Wenshi+
‘”If I told reatly surprised,” Gu Shenwei e”
“Things have changed Our forion, and the Golden Roc Fort was just a strong force in it It did us no good to challenge the Golden Roc But now our goal has expanded to the whole world, and the Golden Roc Fort is just a se on the Golden Roc FortWenshi+ explained
“But I heard that King Rizhu had the Golden Roc Fort’s back If he instructed the Supre to kill all the people in the Gu faood ter Rizhu and the Golden Roc Fort can’t trust each other Now that the Golden Roc Fort is under King Dari’s protection, they’re involved in King Dari’s fight for the throne King Rizhu is eager to cut off his connection with the Golden Roc Fort According to the infor Rizhu hasn’t cooperated with the Supre Wenshi+
Afterfor a while, Gu Shenwei said, “Well, I can claim that the Golden Roc Fort is— as for Old Man Mu, I advise that…we’d better turn hi Wenshi+
“Old Man Mu openly pledged allegiance to me If I turned him in now, others will think that I’m a spinlessto do,” said Gu Shenwei
In Gu Shenwei’s eyes, Old Man Mu was still useful to him, so he did not want to hand hiood reason for this: the on Army were from southern Tianshan They had no idea what evil deeds Old Man Mu had done in northern Tianshan, as they had only heard that the dwarf had rendered outstanding service in the battle of the seaside slope In their eyes, Old Man Mu was a loyal soldier of the Dragon King, not a devil
“Of course we can’t turn hiure out a plan to satisfy both parties,” said Fang Wenshi+ Before he ht that Old Man Mu was a black sheep He had confir him in person
Gu Shenwei shook his head and said, “We’d better not However perfect the hoax is, it will be exposed one day We’ll keep Old Man Mu with us When we negotiate with King Rizhu, it will give us oneRizhu will never negotiate with you All the people in Norland know his violent tee on his enemies Otherwise, he wouldn’t still hate people fro Wenshi+
“Are you sure that Gu Lun was sent to Norland on a diploo?” asked Gu Shenwei
“Yeah, I am Gu Lun stayed in Norland with the Seventh Prince of the Central Plain for years,” Fang Wenshi+ answered Then, he asked why the Dragon King suddenly cared about such trivial details
