"I want to send troops to the imperial capital." The eldest prince Tiexiong said, looking at his younger brother Tiewei with a serious look on his face.

"No." Tiewei shook his head slightly and opposed.

"Why?" Tiexiong asked with some surprise. He thought that his brother should support his decision.

"Mr. Hu and I have the same opinion. Now the time is wrong. We will send troops and the division is Wuming." Tiewei glanced at his brother and slowly said his reasons.

"How come Wuming is known? Mr. Plin's testimony..."

"No. Although I believe what Mr. Plin said is the truth, in the imperial capital, Mr. Plin has been marked as a traitor. Even if we believe Mr. Plin, it is still an unknown number for how many people in the alliance will believe it. Besides, Mr. Plin also said that Lao Wu found a person who is similar to his father and was impersonated. With Lao Wu's style of doing things, the fake beast king must have been trained by him to make the real one. If the fake beast king asks us to hand over Mr. Plin, brother, do you think we will hand over or not?"

"I'll give his grandmother a grandson." Tiexiong cursed.

Tiewei frowned and said, "Brother, scolding cannot solve the problem. Mr. Hu and I discussed it before the meeting and felt that the first thing we should solve is the rebellious remnants at the moment. After they are eliminated, we still need to rest for a while before we can consider the matters in the imperial capital."

"What do you mean is to make Lao Wu arrogant for a while?" Tiexiong asked unwillingly.

"From the current situation, I'm afraid it's true."

“…Is there no other way?”

"Brother, how can we do something else if the rear is uneasy? There is no stable rear. If we send troops and our hometown is taken over, where will we settle down at that time?"

“…I’m not willing.”

"Brother, you are unwilling to accept it, and I am also unwilling to accept it. And I believe that there must be someone in the league who is as unwilling to accept it as we do."

"…You mean the third brother?"

"Yes, the person who was originally designated as the next Beast King suddenly found that his position was about to be taken away. How could he be willing? And let's take a step back and say that there are three forces in the alliance now. One is us, the third brother, and the fifth brother. We have a military advantage with the third brother, while the fifth brother has an advantage in justice. Among these three forces, we are comparable to the third brother. If we kill the fifth brother, although we can win, our strength will not be damaged. How can we fight against the third brother at that time?"

"So what you and Mr. Hu meant was to let the third brother go and fight with the fifth brother first, and let's sit on the wall to watch."

"Yes, but we cannot let outsiders see our true intentions. So we need a reasonable reason, that is, to eliminate the remnants of rebellious forces, and to resolute the internal affairs before fighting foreign countries. I believe no one will blame us for this."

"...Okay, then do as you and Mr. Hu want to do it."

The Governor's Office of the Red River

Tielie, who had already led his army back, met Basat who had rushed back from the imperial capital in the Governor's Mansion. Compared with Principe, Basat was a little better along the way. Because Basat was not injured, he could participate in the battle. It is precisely because of this that there were five guards living beside Basat.

"Mr. Bassat, what do you mean is that the one sitting in the imperial palace is not true?" Tielie looked at Bassat in disbelief and asked. Fortunately, there were no outsiders next to him, otherwise he would have been furious.

"Yes. This is what Plin and I saw with our own eyes, and it cannot be fake." Bassat replied affirmatively.

"I didn't expect that Lao Wu was so crazy for the sake of the throne." Tie Lie said with a hint of emotion.

"Third Prince, what are you going to do next?"

“…Sir, please teach me.”

"I have a question to ask the Third Highness."

"Sir, please ask."

"Can the Third Highness completely control the Red River Plain?"

"……cannot."

"Then please don't think about rushing the army north for the time being, and focus on stabilizing the rear first."

"……Why?"

"A war is nothing more than the military's courage, and more about the logistics. Our foundation is unstable. Now we will send troops, we will be like rootless duckweed. Failure will only be a matter of time."

"What do you mean is that Lao Wu and I should be with me and I? "

"Not with the fifth prince, but with the fake beast king." Basat corrected.

His family knows his family affairs, and Tie Lie is very aware of his current situation. For Honghe, he is an outsider and has no foundation here. At this time, he is a warrior to go north. It is estimated that as long as the fake Beast King in the imperial capital has an order, he will be attacked by various forces within the alliance. After all, Lao Wu held the Beast King Order in his hand and had a lot of say.

"I wouldn't have left the imperial capital if I had known it." Tie Lie said to himself with some annoyance.

"...Third Your Highness, do you know the current situation of your other brothers in the imperial capital?" Basat asked.

“What is the current situation?

"In summary, it is to be raised as a pig."

Tie Lie: "..."

"The Third Highness, leaving the imperial capital is actually not without benefits. No matter when, the big fist is the bottom line. Look at the Great Highness and the Second Highness in the north, since the quelling of the rebellion in the north, the alliance dared to shirk their demands. Although many people wrote to the letter saying that the Great Highness and the Second Highness have their own troops and suggested recalling them back to the imperial capital. But when it comes to whom to send, who dares to speak? As long as there is a soldier in your hands, you can speak loudly. What we have to do now is to accumulate strength. Only with enough power can those who want to plot against us dare not take action easily." Basat encouraged Tielie.

On the way he came, Bassat had already considered it clearly. He was different from Prin. Even if he was not for himself, he would consider the future for his wife and children. Tielie, the future beast king with great potential, is the target of his loyalty to him in the future.

"...Thank you for your encouragement. I wonder if you have any good ideas?"

"Build high walls, accumulate grain, and send troops slowly." Basat said to Tielie in a deep voice.

"...I understand." Tie Lie was silent for a while, nodded and said to Basat.

In the guest room of Lord Fengyang Mansion

"Your Highness, what's wrong with you?" Lao asked Abby with concern. Since he finished talking to Ye Kaihuai that night, Abby has become a little worried and feels a little restless when doing anything.

"Ah? Oh, no, I'm fine. Teacher Lao, thank you for your concern." Abby, who came back to his senses, said repeatedly.

Lao's brows frowned. Is it like nothing wrong?

"Your Highness, what did that boy Ye Kaihuai tell you that night?" asked Abby, who wanted to leave.

"No, it's okay."

"No, there must be something wrong with Your Highness. Did Ye Kaihuai bully you?"

"No, how could Brother Ye bully me? It's just that some of the things Brother Ye said made me a little confused."

"What do you mean?" Rao asked.

"..." Abby was silent for a moment, walked to the door and looked outside, and saw that no one was passing by. He closed the door and asked Rao quietly: "Teacher Lao, do you say that the demon world really represents evil?"

"This..." Lao felt a little uncomfortable to answer.

Seeing Rao hesitant, Abby suddenly felt that what Ye Kaihuai said might be correct. He then asked again: "Teacher Lao, you have been in the Light Church for so many years and have heard so many words about the evil world being evil. Can you tell me, have you seen the evil things that the demon world has done with your own eyes?"

"this……"

"...It turns out that Teacher Lao has never seen it. Teacher Lao, that night, I went to Brother Ye to ask how the sea monster that appeared in Feng Yang was solved? Brother Ye told me that he used the natural law of life and restraint and used the water demon fish in the Demon Realm to kill the sea monster. Then I told Brother Ye that the Demon Realm is evil and it would be better not to have anything to do with them, but Brother Ye refuted me, using the question I asked Teacher Lao just now."

"You mean Feng Yangling has something to do with the Demon World?"

"……Yes."

"He is really bold and dares to deal with people in the demon world."

"I heard from Brother Ye that he deals with the Demon Realm because there are a large amount of metal minerals in the Demon Realm, and what Feng Yang's leader lacks is a large amount of metal minerals."

"No, as far as I know, the metal minerals in Fengyang's lord are abundant, and they are not as what the boy said."

"Although it is rich, the buried place is not good and it is not easy to mine." A helpless voice came from outside the door, which scared Laou and Abby. Looking at the door, he saw Ye Kaihuai standing at the door.

"What does this mean? Can this small problem still stump you?"

"You old man, don't say it, this really stumps me. Those minerals are all in the deep mountains and dense forests. I won't mention the harsh nature of the natural environment. Just those fierce and powerful monsters make me feel a headache."

"I don't have the surname La." Lao's correction was made with a black line.

"Oh, Mr. Nalao has been formed."

"Just put the old words away."

"Okay." Ye Kaihuai said as if he was good.

"Brother Ye, why are you here?" Abby interrupted the conversation between the old and the young in front of him and asked Ye Kaihuai.

"Didn't I hear you seem to be having a bad time, so come and see you? Why? Haven't you figured it out yet?"

"Yeah." Abby nodded.

"If you can't figure it out, don't think about it for the time being. Look at it from the perspective of a bystander. I believe you will have a new understanding then."

"Brother Ye, can't you tell me an answer directly?"

"... There is no fixed answer to this kind of thing. Just like there are good people and bad people among human beings. Can you say that everyone is bad people because you are bullied by bad people? Things are relative. Just like when I make a deal with the Demon World, I need metal minerals in the Demon World, and the Demon World needs necessities of life. Both parties communicate with each other and achieve their own goals..."
