Seeing the hatred in Princess Carol's eyes, Leng Shiqi knew she no longer had the will to die.
He said, "Actually, you should know that if you and Princess Consort interfered in the fight for the throne, you would likely end up like this.
Even if Sang Hetong did not kill Princess Consort, she would have died at Gus' hands sooner or later.
You should be glad you hid in this Gu worm cave, otherwise, you would have died long ago. "
Princess Carol knew Leng Shiqi was speaking the truth, but she did not want to hear it now. She said darkly, "What do you want to say?!"
"Have you ever thought about why Princess Consort interfered in the fight for the throne?
Why do you think she chose to work with the pro-war faction after knowing she was poisoned? This is like asking a tiger for its skin, but she still did it. "
Leng Shiqi looked into Princess Carol's eyes and continued, "She did it for you!
If I am not wrong, Princess Consort's original intention is for the pro-war faction and the pro-peace faction to both suffer losses, and she will benefit from it.
If her plan succeeds, do you think it will be her or you who will sit on the throne? "
Princess Carol bit her lips, her shoulders starting to tremble. Every word Leng Shiqi said seemed to stab at the weakest part of her heart!
But Leng Shiqi did not stop. "Therefore, only by ascending to the throne of Zhu Lu Country can you truly inherit the will of the king and Princess Consort, you can truly take revenge for them!
And I can help you! "
"Haha!" Princess Carol laughed bitterly, "Throne?
I am alone right now, I have nothing, how can I ascend to the throne?
It is simply a fantasy! "
"You cannot do it now, but that does not mean you cannot do it in the future. You can take a look at this first." Saying this, Leng Shiqi took out a mustard seed bag and threw it over.
Princess Carol subconsciously caught it and opened the mustard seed bag to take a look. Her pupils shrunk as she showed a shocked expression.
This mustard seed bag contained all of Sang Hetong's Gu refinement techniques!
There was even the next level of the 《Ten Thousand Gu Spirit Devouring Method》!
Princess Carol knew how precious these things were, but she was even more shocked. How did he obtain them?!
Leng Shiqi stood with his hands behind his back, he did not explain, but said: "Your highness, there are some Spirit Cultivators who cultivate Gu techniques in Zhu Lu Country, with your talent and the support of these resources, you can establish your own sect.
Furthermore, with your means, you can hide your identity and take up an official position in Monarch City. This way, you'll have some followers both inside and outside the city.
Of course, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that you are a princess and have the right to inherit the throne. When the time is right, you will have the opportunity to overthrow Gus. "
Princess Carol's eyes flickered with uncertainty. It did sound possible, but she shook her head and said, "Even if that's the case, I'm afraid the possibility is less than half. I'm digging my own grave by doing this."
"Of course, that's not all."
Leng Shiqi smiled strangely and said: "There is also a highly respected old official in Monarch City who has pledged allegiance to us. Although he is under house arrest now, the foundation behind him is still very deep. When the time comes, he will be a great help to you!"
Although Princess Carol had not come into contact with the outside world, from Leng Shiqi's words, she could guess who that person was. It must be the previous Elder, Qu Li!
She could not help but be surprised. The other party could actually rope in Qu Li. How many unimaginable methods did they have?
"In addition, we also have great experts in the Unity of Heaven realm. You don't have to worry about the high-end battle strength. When the time comes, you can contact the royal family and gain some strength.
In this way, you really want to overthrow Gus! "
Princess Carol's breathing became even more rapid. Clearly, she was tempted!
Even though the possibility of that happening was still very small, it was still possible!
However, she did not let it go to her head. Instead, she frowned and asked: "Why are you helping me?
Why are you interfering in the battle for the throne of Zhu Lu Country?
What do you, or should I say, what do you want?! "
Leng Shiqi raised a finger and said: "First, you must give me the Gu King."
Princess Carol nodded without hesitation. The Gu King was very precious, but Sang Hetong's Gu refinement technique and the Ten Thousand Gu Spirit Devouring Technique were more important to her!
Leng Shiqi raised a second finger, "From now on, I will send people to collect some Gu worms from you every once in a while."
Princess Carol understood that the other party wanted to use her to nurture Gu worms. However, this matter was going with the flow, so she agreed.
Finally, Leng Shiqi looked deeply at Princess Carol and said meaningfully: "After you successfully ascend the throne, you need to join our organization."
Hearing this, Princess Carol's eyes widened slightly. She understood, she understood everything!
It turned out that the other party did not really want to help her ascend the throne, but wanted to use her to indirectly control the entire Zhu Lu Country!
What great ambition!
She even thought that even if she really became the king in the future, she might be secretly controlled by the other party!
Leng Shiqi saw through her thoughts and said: "Princess Carol, don't worry. Our organization is not a sect, but a loose one. Everyone gathered together for mutual benefits.
We won't restrict Princess Carol in any way, nor do we want to plot against Zhu Lu Country. We just want a place to live.
We will help you take revenge and ascend the throne, and you will provide us with a place to live. Speaking of which, Princess Carol is the one who benefits.
And the things in this mustard seed bag are my sincerity. "
Princess Carol closed her eyes, seemingly hesitating. Leng Shiqi was not in a hurry, he stood at the side and waited quietly.
After about a quarter of an hour, Princess Carol's eyes suddenly opened. Her eyes were filled with determination, she only said one word: "Okay."
Hearing this, Leng Shiqi smiled and said: "Princess Carol made a very correct decision."
Princess Carol suddenly seemed to have matured a lot. She raised her hand and released a Gu worm, it was the Gu King!
"This is what I promised to give you."
Leng Shiqi put away the Gu King with a smile. "Your Highness, the throne is not something that can be achieved overnight. We all need to slowly accumulate strength. Therefore, in the next few years, you must lay low and secretly cultivate your forces. That is the way to go."
Leng Shiqi did not want Princess Carol to expose herself in her eagerness to take revenge, so he specially reminded her.
After that, they set up their contact signs and went their separate ways.
The reason why Leng Shiqi would help Princess Carol take back the throne was not empty talk, it was really possible!
Sang Hetong had already planted a mind controlling Gu in Qu Li. Sang Hetong was dead, so Qu Li became an important trump card in Leng Shiqi's hands.
In terms of battle strength, he also had Tu Deng!
Moreover, he could mobilize the assassins of the Blood Garment Pavilion. Presumably, the Blood Garment Pavilion was also very interested in secretly controlling Zhu Lu Country.
Of course, the most important thing was Princess Carol's identity!
Even if Princess Carol were to openly seize the throne, the Sky Origin Stage experts of the Hall of Worship wouldn't interfere. That way, they wouldn't have to deal with the most troublesome force.
Moreover, Leng Shiqi had tentatively scheduled this matter for a few years later. By then, his strength and influence would not be weak, and Zhu Lu Country would be his target!
