That night, after detaining the little girl who brought medicine to the third elder, the first and second elders, accompanied by the tiger leader and the deer tribe leader, rushed to the bedroom where the old king of Yin Kingdom lived.

In order to facilitate surveillance, the eldest prince placed the old king and the second prince in the same bedroom.

This operation made it easier for the Great Elder and his men to rescue people. Not only did it save them time in rushing around, it also directly blocked the Prime Minister's chance to transfer the hostages.

He was caught off guard, and by the time he received the news and rushed to the scene, the situation had already been directly controlled by the people brought by the tiger leader, and he no longer had the chance to intervene.

In this land, the Holy Maiden Temple is definitely the spiritual leader of all the tribesmen. This is not only due to the power of faith, but also stems from the noble character and selfless spirit of generations of elders.

Because of trust, the people in the entire tribe will obey their orders unconditionally. Although they have supreme power, the elders are strict with themselves and will not interfere in the affairs of the tribes unless it is absolutely necessary.

Therefore, where Chief Tiger and his men could not enter, the Saint Lady and the three elders could pass freely and their words were law.

This is one of the reasons why Soma is so eager to get to the top. People without self-discipline will find it difficult to extricate themselves from power after tasting it.

Upon receiving the news, the Prime Minister rushed to the scene without even having time to put on his coat. When he saw the two people standing by the old king's bed and taking his pulse, he suddenly felt dizzy in front of his eyes.

It's over, it's all over. This was the first reaction of the Prime Minister.

They had planned everything, but they had never expected that the first and second elders would come out of retreat just as the team set out, and directly come to the old king's bedroom, not giving him any chance to fight back.

If he were asked to do something under the eyes of the two elders again, he would not dare to do it even if he had the guts. Because if he made the slightest move, the tribesmen would eat him alive.

After confirming that the old king, the second prince and the third elder had the same symptoms, the first elder secretly let out the breath he had been holding, and his heart finally settled down.

Although this was a trap, and everyone on this land was a part of it, if any of the Third Elder, the Old King, and the Second Prince made a mistake, it would be a pain they could not bear.

Fortunately, although he and the second elder arrived a little late, it was not too late in the end.

The three of them were in very poor health, but as long as they took good care of themselves in the coming period, they would be able to make up for it.

Only then did he feel like turning around and looking at the Prime Minister of Yin State, who had been standing there wiping his sweat since entering the room.

"I heard that you were the one who took charge of this matter?" The Great Elder turned around, flicked the non-existent dust off his sleeves, and asked lightly.

The Prime Minister felt an invisible pressure rushing towards him, and his standing body could not help but sway.

Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore and fell to his knees on the ground.

"No, no, please investigate carefully, two elders. I, I had no choice but to do it." The Prime Minister's voice was trembling.

"oh?!"

Just one simple word was enough to make the Prime Minister speechless.

Not wanting to waste any more time talking to him, the Great Elder directly ordered the Tiger Chieftain, "Tiger Chief, have someone take him down, and send someone to check who else was involved in this incident, and keep them under careful watch. When the old king wakes up, hand them over to him for punishment."

"Yes," Chief Tiger winked at the people he brought with him, and someone immediately stepped forward and pulled the Prime Minister, who was slumped on the ground, down.

Two days later, the third elder, the old king and the second prince regained consciousness one after another, but it was five days later before they were able to handle simple government affairs.

The Great Elder gave the order to suppress the matter and strictly forbade anyone to reveal the situation of the three of them.

Therefore, the fact that the three of them had woken up and started to manage their affairs was not leaked at all.

One of the most important reasons is that the eldest prince trusted the ability of the prime minister too much, so he brought all his people with him on this expedition. In addition, the old king quickly woke up and regained control of the government, leaving no chance for others to act.

"This rebellious son still wants to be the crown prince? Ha!" The old king of Yin Kingdom, who was still lying in bed, could not help but snort coldly after listening to the report from the courtier who was imprisoned for refusing to go along with the eldest prince.

Several court officials quietly wiped their sweat and lowered their heads silently. The internal strife in the royal family brought disaster to them as officials.

"How much food and grass did that rebellious son collect this time?" The old king took a breath and continued to ask.

The court official in charge of the Ministry of Revenue of Yin State stood up and said, "Your Majesty, according to investigation, together with the other three tribes, the total of 30,000 dan can support the army for more than one or two months."

"Have all the people in the clan who were involved in this incident been investigated and punished?" The old king turned to look at the courtier in charge of the Ministry of War.

"Yes, they are all under strict surveillance."

In just a few words, such a big thing was over, and the next step was to discuss other matters of other tribes.

It was these few words that made all the court officials present understand that the tribe would no longer give any support to the eldest prince and his men.

The tribe gave up the 90,000 troops who went out to fight! This was the common understanding of all the court officials.

However, after this battle that was bound to be a defeat, the strength of the Yin Kingdom and the other three tribes involved in this incident was undoubtedly reduced by half. It is unknown how many years it will take for them to restore their former glory.

Then why did the king and the three elders watch the eldest prince and his men fight this battle that had no chance of winning, and not stop them in time? This was something that all the court officials could not understand.

"Father, are we really just going to watch like this?" The second prince was also puzzled.

The old king sighed upon hearing this, and his already aged face looked even more decrepit after this incident. This was his own son, and although it was the fault of the father if the son was unfilial, he felt sadder than anyone else to see his child go to his death without being able to do anything.

but......

"Do the things at hand well and restore the tribe to its vitality as soon as possible. This is your most important task now. The rest depends on his luck."

But the eldest prince, who was about to arrive at the border with Haoyue with his army, did not think so.

On the chariot, the eldest prince stood upright, full of vigor and vitality, as if he could easily take down the entire Haoyue Dynasty in the next moment.

Not far behind him, following closely behind were four other chariots, in which stood Soma, the Leopard Chief, the Fox Chief, and the Rat Chief, all dressed in gorgeous clothes.

They stopped three miles away from the narrow pit. "Let's set up camp here today. Send scouts to explore the situation ahead. Everyone else can have a good rest."
