MTLNOVEL Chapter 200 Yan Buming, the Ke Family that Doesn't Recognize the Portrait_1
Becoming the target of all arrows,
this was not a good thing for the Luo Family.
However, if these forces really intended to target the Luo Family...
there always had to be someone who took the lead.
And who would that person be?
This was another tough question.
The alliance of several forces indeed made the Luo Family somewhat inferior,
but the Luo Family had survived until now and even held sway over the territory of four prefectures.
They were despised by many forces, yet they managed to continue their existence safely on this continent.
There surely was a reason for that.
...
Inside the room.
After perusing for a long time,
Luo Ping silently put down the piece of intelligence in his hand.
Then, he picked up a cup of tea that was still emitting steam from the table.
He took a small sip from the edge.
The unity between several forces indeed posed a tough match for the Luo Family,
but obviously, the situation had not reached the worst possible scenario yet.
Not to mention, the Great Flame Dynasty alone.
They had made multiple requests to send military aid, all of which were refused by the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family.
The New Emperor Feng Wumian, in order to rapidly deplete the strength of both the Luo Family and the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family,
was merely amassing troops at the border, at most engaging in minor skirmishes with the Luo Family, and had never collided in earnest.
As for Feng Wuhen,
he was probably contemplating sitting on the hill to watch the tigers fight around this time, right?
Having played the role of a fisherman once and reaped the benefits,
Feng Wuhen would naturally grow fond of the feeling of gaining without effort.
Besides, if multiple forces really did unite together, that indeed would be formidable.
It could even mean the Luo Family might be crushed.
This was not impossible.
But would the internal powers within the Da Feng Dynasty, as well as the outsider Great Flame Dynasty, really unite over the Luo Family?
Don't make me laugh!
The only true driver for these forces to unite was absolute interest.
In front of absolute interests, people could set aside everything.
But if one were to say that the Luo Family was still at its peak, not yet weakened,
under such circumstances,
it would be a pipe dream to expect these forces to act together.
The Luo Family is indeed powerful; there is no doubt about that.
It is also true that New Emperor Feng Wumian wishes to see the Luo Family die.
But whether it's New Emperor Feng Wumian or Feng Wuhen,
the magnitude of their hatred toward both the Luo Family and the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family was nearly equal.
If possible, seeing the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family and the Luo Family fight to the death would be beneficial for New Emperor Feng Wumian, wouldn't it?
In terms of comprehensive strength, the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family indeed ranked somewhat below the Luo Family.
But if the outsider Great Flame Dynasty were added into the mix,
the gap in strength between the two parties seemed to be gradually levelling.
...
"How is the situation in Wan Shan Prefecture now?"
Inside the room.
Luo Ping sipped his tea, Enjoy new chapters from empire
as if suddenly recalling something, he then asked Lu Jun, who was beside him, in a low voice.
Lu Jun pondered for a moment before responding, "It's the same as usual. The forces from Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family keep attacking. While their gains are still minimal, they are faring slightly better than before..."
Luo Ping put down his cup of tea.
He nodded silently, murmuring, "That makes sense. After all, the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family has the resources of the Great Flame Dynasty.
If they can't do slightly better under these circumstances, it might be time for the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family to stop fighting, or they might as well just surrender, or like those families in Jiangnan Prefecture, sell off their land for a good price and then take the money and run..."
Inside the room.
The more Luo Ping talked, the more heated he became.
Whether it was Lu Jun by his side or the others dealing with official affairs,
they all closed their mouths at this time,
choosing not to carelessly join in on such a topic.
...
In a flash,
another half a month had passed.
Outside the Da Feng Dynasty,
with in the Great Flame Dynasty, not too distant from the Da Feng Dynasty,
within an Imperial Palace guarded by numerous imperial guards, glorious and majestic, radiating an aura of dignity,
in a very brightly lit hall,
but where only one person resided,
there sat the current Emperor of the Great Flame Dynasty, Yan Buming, wearing an Emperor's Robe,
with a dignity emanating sporadically,
a face that appeared contemplative,
eyes that were extremely spirited,
an entire being exuding an intimidating presence without anger.
At this moment, he was sitting quietly on the throne in the palace.
His mood did not seem very good.
Clearly, the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family, who repeatedly refused his offers of military support, had displeased and upset him.
However, apart from the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family,
it seemed that his Great Flame Dynasty had no better opportunity to participate in the power struggle of the Da Feng Dynasty.
As the reigning Emperor of the Great Flame Dynasty, this left Yan Buming both annoyed and somewhat helpless.
"Someone..."
After a long silence,
Yan Buming called out softly to the outside of the hall.
Before long, an elderly official in a solemn robe, slightly stooped,
quietly walked into the hall.
