Douluo: Rebirth Davis, Zhuqing, you calm down

#317 - Prelude to the Palace Coup, Davis's Methods (Part 1)

With the "Shadow Clone" soul skill, Tang Yuehua's strength could increase geometrically, and Davis wouldn't have to worry about her safety anymore.

As everything got on track, Davis continued to cultivate in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, absorbing the ice and fire energy from the spring water to completely evolve his spine into a dragon bone.

Near the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, usually only Davis and Zhu Zhuqing were present, and occasionally Dugu Bo would come to select herbs or cultivate.

However, Davis noticed that recently, Dugu Bo had been returning with a worried look on his face, and every time he came back, he would go to the herb garden, looking left and right to see if there were any herbs he needed, and he would sigh from time to time.

This time, Davis finally couldn't help it and asked, "Senior Dugu, what's wrong with you? Why do you look so worried these days?"

"Alas! I'm worried about the affairs of Prince Xue Xing and Prince Xue Beng!" Dugu Bo sighed and explained the whole story.

"Now, Emperor Xue Ye of the Heaven Dou Empire is seriously ill. From my observation, Emperor Xue Ye already has the appearance of death, and I'm afraid it won't be long before he passes away..."

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Davis was secretly shocked. Emperor Xue Ye was seriously ill, which meant that Xue Qinghe was starting to take action! Recalling the destruction of the Seven Treasure Blue Lightning Alliance, he instantly understood everything!

So that's how it is. The reason why Xue Qinghe didn't act before, apart from gaining the support of high-ranking officials and even the military of the Heaven Dou Empire, was also because Ning Fengzhi was still alive and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School still existed.

Davis thought to himself, Ning Fengzhi was the national teacher of the Heaven Dou Empire, and he was quite scheming. Moreover, he had the deep trust of Emperor Xue Ye, and at the same time, he had the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School as Ning Fengzhi's private power...

Therefore, Qian Daoliu joined forces with Bibi Dong to completely cripple the Seven Treasure Blue Lightning Alliance, so that Ning Fengzhi could recognize his position and situation, and only gave him two choices.

Either continue to support Xue Qinghe's claim to the throne, or leave the Heaven Dou Empire. Obviously, Ning Fengzhi chose the latter, resigning from the Heaven Dou Empire and going to the Star Luo Empire.

Although Xue Qinghe no longer had Ning Fengzhi's support, Emperor Xue Ye had also lost a right-hand man, and Xue Qinghe could do whatever he wanted next!

After understanding this, Davis instantly realized that the Heaven Dou Palace change might be in the next few months! And if he wanted to get the Vast Sea Barrier, this would be the best opportunity!

If he wanted to fish in troubled waters and get the Vast Sea Barrier, he must first make Heaven Dou City and even the entire Heaven Dou Empire chaotic. Then, Prince Xue Beng, the纨绔, was a chess piece that could be used!

Thinking of this, Davis couldn't help but say, "I didn't expect Emperor Xue Ye to have such a thing happen, but what does this have to do with Senior Dugu?"

"Of course it has something to do with me!" Dugu Bo sat on a clean rock, picked up a highly poisonous herb and stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it twice, and swallowed it into his stomach. At the same time, a rare expression of enjoyment appeared on his face, as if he was eating some delicacy.

"If Emperor Xue Ye dies, then Crown Prince Xue Qinghe will inherit the throne!"

"Is there anything wrong with him inheriting the throne? As far as I know, Emperor Xue Ye has four sons, of which the second and third princes died early, and only Crown Prince Xue Qinghe and Prince Xue Beng are still alive.

I heard that Crown Prince Xue Qinghe is gentle, kind, benevolent, and reasonable, while the fourth prince Xue Beng is a playboy who does all kinds of evil and is tyrannical. Frankly speaking, I think it's a good thing for the Heaven Dou Empire to let Xue Qinghe inherit the throne!"

"Alas, little friend, you don't know, Prince Xue Beng's appearance as a纨绔 young master is actually a disguise. In order to avoid assassination, he has no choice!"

"Oh?" Davis revealed a hint of surprise and asked knowingly, "Is there any hidden secret in this?"

"Yes, you also know that Emperor Xue Ye has four sons, and the second and third princes died for some unclear reasons in their early years.

Prince Xue Xing noticed that the deaths of the two princes were suspicious, so he asked me to investigate the cause of the two princes' deaths, and instructed Prince Xue Beng to pretend to be a playboy and a cynical person on weekdays, so that those people would think that he was not a threat to the throne!"

After a pause, Dugu Bo suddenly said something that had happened recently, "By the way, you must have heard about the recent deaths of many officials in the Heaven Dou Empire, right?"

Davis nodded slightly, "Yes, I've heard a little about it!"

"Do you know what kind of people those dead officials are? They are all people who openly and secretly opposed Xue Qinghe's inheritance of the throne. Even those who remained neutral and impartial were either threatened or had their relatives missing.

It can be said that more than half of the officials and generals in the court are Xue Qinghe's people now, even Grand Marshal Ge Long is no exception.

Now Xue Qinghe has completely controlled the government. If we can't find evidence that Xue Qinghe designed to murder the princes, I'm afraid the entire Heaven Dou Empire will fall into his hands."

Speaking of this, Dugu Bo sighed heavily again, while Davis was thoughtful when he heard the words, and said after a moment of contemplation, "If you really can't find evidence that Xue Qinghe murdered the princes, just let him take the initiative to show his feet."

"Oh?" Hearing this, Dugu Bo's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked, "What is the little friend's plan?"

"It's very simple, we can use Prince Xue Beng as bait!" Davis said his plan, "We assume that Xue Qinghe's murder of the princes is true, then his murder of the two princes is ultimately for the throne. If someone appears at this time and threatens his throne.

Then, according to Xue Qinghe's thinking, he will definitely take the initiative to attack and eliminate all hidden dangers. We can then use this plan to take him down in one fell swoop! And the person who threatens Xue Qinghe's throne is the fourth prince Xue Beng!"

Dugu Bo couldn't help scratching his head in confusion when he heard the words, "But in everyone's impression, Prince Xue Beng is just a纨绔 young master, and now all the civil and military officials are Xue Qinghe's people..."

"Hehe, since there are no allies in the court, then look for allies outside the court..." Davis didn't say everything, but just said to Dugu Bo, "Can Senior Dugu help me introduce Prince Xue Beng? I have a way to help him save his life, or even win the throne!"

"That's naturally no problem!" Dugu Bo nodded confidently, "But little friend, I don't quite understand, you are the Crown Prince of Star Luo, why do you want to help Xue Beng?"

"It's very simple, when the snipe and clam fight, the fisherman benefits!" (End of this chapter)
