Samsara Paradise: Dream Weaver of Connections

Just two years ago, the previous prince was suddenly abolished by the old king.

This move caused an uproar in the royal city, and all kinds of speculations and rumors were everywhere.

The new prince is the youngest and most mediocre of all the old king's children.

Some clever nobles have guessed what the old king wants to do, and the old king obviously does not want to step down from the throne.

This 83-year-old man, like an old lion, still holds on to his territory and is unwilling to let go.

Despite the support of the magic potion, the old king's life has obviously entered the countdown, and he will only live a few more years at most.

Against this background, the political situation in Shenglong City has become more and more complicated and subtle.

At present, there are three forces with the greatest possibility of taking the throne. They each have different advantages and ambitions, and they are all secretly arranging and waiting for an opportunity to move.

The first is the force of Prince Longte.

As the emperor's younger brother, Prince Longte is over fifty years old. He not only has a deep foundation in the royal family, but also has the support of a large number of noble officials in the court.

These nobles, either out of consideration of interests or out of fear of the future political situation, chose to attach themselves to Prince Longte, thus forming a huge political group.

Prince Longte's influence is not limited to the court. His tentacles have even penetrated into the army and civilians, becoming a force that cannot be ignored throughout the Longteng Empire.

It can be said that whether it is the court officials, military generals, or ordinary people, Prince Longte's people are in all walks of life.

The second is the power of the prince.

As the most orthodox heir today, the prince naturally has a very high voice and represents the stability and orthodoxy of the royal family.

He has received the support of a large number of old-school nobles and royalists, which makes him have a certain influence in politics.

However, the problem with the prince lies in his personal ability.

This term of the prince is very mediocre. Not only does he lack foresight and talent in governing the country, but he even seems unable to balance the power of his subordinates.

This lack of ability makes people question his future ruling ability.

If it weren't for the fact that he was the crown prince, with his ability and performance, he would not be worthy of competing with political elites like Prince Longte.

The last one is the Seventeenth Prince.

Among the three powerful competitors, he is the youngest, just 23 years old this year, at the prime of his life.

However, being young does not mean being weak.

On the contrary, the Seventeenth Prince is the most cunning and strategic among the three.

Although he is young, he has a very high reputation among the people, thanks to his proposition - to destroy the entire tribe.

This radical political concept has attracted a lot of support from the army and civilians.

The power of the Seventeenth Prince has risen rapidly among the people, and its development speed is remarkable.

In some ways, his influence has even surpassed that of the crown prince and Prince Longte.

His youth, courage and unique political ideas have made him the most promising political star in Shenglong City, and also made him a strong contender for the future throne.

Prince Longte once tried to use his power to eradicate the Seventeenth Prince, but soon discovered that the power of the Seventeenth Prince had risen rapidly and became a behemoth that could not be underestimated.

Whether it is Prince Longte or the Crown Prince, it has become extremely difficult to easily get rid of the Seventeenth Prince, and it may even cause a greater political turmoil.

In this political vortex, any blow to the Seventeenth Prince may become a handle for other competitors and be used to make a big fuss.

Therefore, all parties are extremely cautious when considering taking action against the Seventeenth Prince.

As time goes by, the Seventeenth Prince's power is getting bigger and bigger, and he has the strength to compete head-on with Prince Longte and the Crown Prince. In this complex political game, Prince Longte, the Crown Prince and the Seventeenth Prince each adopted different strategies to consolidate and expand their own power.

Prince Longte may try to consolidate his position by manipulating the court, the Crown Prince may seek more support from nobles and officials to maintain orthodoxy, and the Seventeenth Prince uses the support of the people to promote political ideas.

The outcome of this game is still full of uncertainty.

Any small change may have a profound impact on the entire situation and change the balance of power.

In this struggle, the final decision is still in the hands of the emperor.

The emperor's attitude and choice will directly affect the determination of the successor. Therefore, before the emperor makes a clear statement, no one can ensure that the successor he chooses can successfully ascend the throne.

At present, the struggle between the three competitors is still going on in secret and has not been made public.

This is because the old emperor is still alive and he has absolute control over the entire situation.

As long as the old emperor is still there, these three people cannot really ascend to the supreme throne.

Therefore, they can only make plans in secret, wait for the opportunity, and at the same time guard against each other's movements.

"Interesting."

After the inventory of the night, Lin Yi found that the current Shenglong City is much more interesting than the front-line battlefield.

Although Shenglong City is prosperous on the surface, it is actually full of wolves who eat people without spitting out bones. If you are not careful, you may become their prey and be devoured without leaving any bones.

"What are you going to do?"

Su Xiao walked to Lin Yi. He could see that Lin Yi was very serious when he listened to Nei Ye's description of the situation in Holy Dragon City. It seemed that he had already made a plan in his heart.

"It's very simple. This time we are also going to watch the plot of the nine sons seizing the throne, but this time we are just the audience."

After leaving the sewer, Lin Yi and Su Xiao went straight to Holy Dragon Academy.

When they arrived at the gate of the academy, they happened to meet Master Bohai who was distributing test subjects to other teachers.

"Brother, is the teacher still there?" Lin Yi asked.

"Here, if you want to find the teacher, just go to the office." After receiving the reply, Lin Yi waved to Master Bohai, and then hurriedly pulled Su Xiao and Bubu Wang towards the dean's office.

They passed through a group of teachers who were discussing the contractors of Apocalypse Paradise. Those teachers were enthusiastically discussing the advantages and disadvantages of each contractor, hoping to select the best experimental subjects.

At this time, the dean, Mr. Yunlong, was sitting in the spacious and bright office, sipping tea leisurely.

Suddenly, the door of the office was pushed open by Lin Yi, and he rushed in like a gust of wind.

"Teacher, I'm back." Lin Yi sat down next to the old man Yunlong carelessly, picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea, looking as if he was familiar with it.

Seeing Lin Yi's rude behavior, Old Man Yunlong couldn't help frowning and scolded: "You kid, you always want to take advantage of me. Also, put down my teapot. This pot of tea is specially made by the elves." The flower of life is extremely precious, and the output is less than one kilogram a year. You guys are just wasting a good thing."

Hearing this, Lin Yi smiled, put down the teacup in his hand, scratched his head and said, "Teacher, don't be angry, I'm thirsty. Besides, you have so many good things, you don't care about this little tea, right?" "

"Teacher, is our old emperor really prepared to continue sitting in that position?" Lin Yi asked straight to the point. This question can be said to be quite sensitive and direct.

The moment Old Yunlong heard this question, his hand stretched out in the air froze. He slowly put down his hand and his eyes became deep.

He pondered for a moment, and then slowly spoke: "Even you can see that Hal Adam looks really old."

Hal Adam, the current emperor of the Dragon Empire, is 83 years old, but he still sticks to the throne and shows no signs of abdicating.
