Driving a Tiger to Devour a Wolf, the Reckless Qian Renxue
Soon, Xue Qinghe found Xue Ye, who was handling state affairs.
Seeing Xue Qinghe running over excitedly, Xue Ye stopped what he was doing, smiled at his successor, and asked.
What's the rush?
Knowing his son as he does, he wouldn't show such an expression unless it was a major issue.
Faced with Xue Ye's question, Xue Qinghe looked around but said nothing.
Seeing Xue Qinghe's reaction, Xue Ye understood that what she was about to say was something that couldn't be known by too many people.
So he waved his hand, dismissing the guards and palace maids around him, leaving only himself and Xue Qinghe.
"Now you can tell me, what is it?"
Upon hearing this, Xue Qinghe finally spoke.
"Father, I wish to take a wife."
"Oh, whose daughter is she?"
Xue Ye's eyes lit up; his son had finally come to his senses and knew he should get married.
So many women were found for him before, but he didn't like any of them, saying that none of them met the requirements of the Crown Princess.
His sudden proposal was quite unexpected.
"Zhu Zhuqing, daughter of the Star Luo Zhu Family."
"Who?!"
Xue Ye's smile vanished, and he slammed his hand heavily on the table, immediately alerting the guards outside.
The guards, thinking they were in danger on Xue Ye, broke down the door and entered.
Upon entering, they discovered that Xue Ye was perfectly fine and there were no signs of danger.
"Get out! Everyone, stand at least 100 meters away. No one is allowed to approach this area without my permission."
A cold voice rebuked him in the Xue Ye, and the guards who had just rushed in quickly retreated.
After dismissing the guards, Xue Ye sat back down and looked at Xue Qinghe, his most valued son, with a scrutinizing gaze.
Share your thoughts.
He knew Xue Qinghe's personality very well; she was definitely not the kind of person who didn't know her place.
The other party must have their own reasons for doing this, and he is happy to hear their explanation.
"My idea is very simple: legitimacy."
"The Zhu Family is the Star Luo Empire royal family, and now that she has become my Crown Princess, her children will have the bloodline of the Star Luo Empire royal family."
"I'd like to do something about this place."
That's right, Xue Qinghe wanted to use this method to shake the foundation of the Star Luo Imperial Family.
The Dai Family and Zhu Family families had intermarried for generations, and both families were members of the imperial family.
The Dai Family has always been the primary force, with the Zhu Family playing a secondary role.
The two have complemented each other for so many years and seem to be united, but the reality may not be so.
After all, who wouldn't want to sit on the throne, especially someone like the Zhu Family, who are so close yet so far away?
"You think you can shake Star Luo Empire with this? You're being a bit naive."
Xue Ye understood Xue Qinghe's thoughts, but he had dealt with the Star Luo Empire quite a bit, and this matter wouldn't be so easy to accomplish.
One woman cannot represent the entire Zhu Family, and her offspring are even less likely to inherit the Star Luo Empire throne.
"No, Father, I have a different opinion on this."
Xue Qinghe raised his head, revealing a confident expression.
"Father, have you ever heard of the strategy of using one tiger to devour another?"
"Using one tiger to devour another?"
On Xue Ye, he pondered the specific meaning of the plan Xue Qinghe had proposed.
You mean the Spirit Hall?
The phrase "driving a tiger to devour a wolf" means using someone else's hand to achieve one's own goals.
Currently, it seems that only the Spirit Hall can meet this requirement.
The Upper Three Sects are no good. Although they are powerful, they are not qualified to fight against an empire.
Only the Spirit Hall truly possesses this strength.
But how can I get the other person to help me?
The Spirit Hall isn't stupid, and their ambitions are considerable.
So what if there's a backlash? Wouldn't that be a losing proposition?
"Yes, it's the Spirit Hall. Your Majesty, I have a way to guide them to help us fight against the Star Luo Empire."
It's not really a confrontation. All we need to do is have the Spirit Hall support the Zhu Family and create internal strife, then the Heaven Dou Empire can take advantage of the situation.
Even if they can't defeat Star Luo Empire, they can still inflict considerable losses on the enemy.
By doing this, as long as we slowly wear down the opponent, we will eventually bring them down.
"You have a way to control the Spirit Hall?"
Hearing this, Xue Ye was somewhat surprised.
After all, the plan was indeed good, but the most difficult part was getting the Spirit Hall to agree to do it.
Given the current situation of the Spirit Hall, even if he were to plead with them, they would not agree.
He was genuinely curious about what tricks his crown prince had to make the other party take action.
"Father, have you ever heard of the name of the one Defying Heaven?"
"Defying Heaven? You mean that powerful figure who killed Clear Sky Douluo!"
Xue Ye sat up straight, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.
Could it be that the other party is one of his son's people?
No, impossible, absolutely impossible.
The thought was abruptly extinguished by the Xue Ye.
If he really is such a person, he should step down now and let Xue Qinghe take over.
His reputation as Defying Heaven had already spread throughout Heaven Dou City. He had recently discussed this matter with Ning Fengzhi, the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
The other party stated that he was also unaware of the specific details, but based on the information he had obtained, the opponent was very strong, at least stronger than the two Guardian Douluo of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect combined.
Such strength indicates he is no unknown figure; the so-called "Defying Heaven" is likely an alias.
Furthermore, the other party has had contact with the Spirit Hall, so there is a certain probability that they are a member of the Spirit Hall.
At the very least, it's related to the Spirit Hall.
It is precisely because of this incident that, apart from the Clear Sky Sect which has already secluded itself from the world, there are now only a few sects left.
The other two sects of the Upper Three Sects are searching for each other's whereabouts.
But so far, nothing has been gained.
The other party seemed to have vanished into thin air, leaving no trace whatsoever.
But now a message has come from the mouth of the Xue Qinghe, how could he not be shocked?
"Yes, it's him. Your Majesty, I have a way to contact him. As long as we use his name, we can get the Spirit Hall to take action, and then the annexation of the Star Luo Empire will be just around the corner."
She could mobilize the Spirit Hall's people on her own.
But if they wanted Xue Ye to believe them, they had to find another way.
She hadn't mentioned or informed Mo Lin about this, and she wondered if he would cause her trouble when he returned.
But since we've already started, we can't just give up halfway.
At worst, we can just give the other party some compensation later.
However, while Qian Renxue thought this way, there was one thing she hadn't considered.
That is, Mo Lin had a huge appetite, and the price she paid was far greater than she had imagined.
After listening, Xue Ye was clearly deep in thought.
I closed my eyes and tapped my fingers rhythmically on the table.
A moment later, he opened his eyes.
With a long sigh, Xue Ye stood up and walked to Xue Qinghe, speaking softly.
"Could I meet that person?"
On this Xue Ye, he longed to meet the mysterious Heaven-Defying Sword God, even though he knew it might be a false identity.
But he remained curious, after all, as Emperor, he disliked the feeling of being powerless.
This feeling was especially strong coming from his son.
However, Xue Qinghe refused Xue Ye's request without hesitation.
"Father, I cannot do it."
It's like a joke; is Mo Lin someone she can control?
Even her grandfather couldn't be persuaded, let alone you.
Despite being one of the rulers of the two empires of Heaven Dou Douluo Continent, Xue Ye is not as powerful as he seems.
In reality, the entire Imperial Family didn't even have a Titled Douluo.
The only one who could be summoned was Dugu Bo, who was the weakest among the Titled Douluo.
Defying Heaven's level is clearly above Dugu Bo's. You want to see him? Dream on.
