Chapter 1045: Chapter 830, This is Impossible (One More Today). Chapter 1045: Chapter 830, This is Impossible (One More Today). The matter of the Lundham City Messenger finally reached here.
Originally, the messenger was meant to locate the Second Prince.
But the messenger wasn't as fast as Wu Heng; it had been so many days since people were killed before the negotiations with the messenger were officially conveyed.
Of course, when the Second Prince was killed on the train.
The information they exchanged on paper among the four of them had mentioned the matter of the messenger, but at that time, it was still just intelligence being transmitted, and the person hadn't yet arrived at Nirali City.
“Now who has the energy to deal with that matter,” Wu Heng, impersonating the Second Prince, showed an impatient expression.
In Nirali City, level 18 professionals either died or fled; staying calm was impossible.
The two ministers below exchanged glances.
The administrative minister stepped forward and said again, “Your Highness, perhaps contacting the messenger from Lundham City might lead to a turning point.”
Wu Heng looked up at him and asked, “What turning point?”
“Can't we use Lundham City to jointly restrain the threat from the Royal Capital?” the administrative minister said softly.
Wu Heng's eyes narrowed slightly, somewhat surprised that the other party would take the initiative to make this decision.
“How to use them?”
The administrative minister continued, “The fact that Lundham City sent a messenger indicates they want to negotiate. If we fall, they will have to face the Royal Capital's army directly.”
He paused briefly, observing Wu Heng's expression, then added, “We are willing to negotiate, but we need their help to withstand the threat from the Royal Capital.”
Unbeknownst to them, the situation here had developed to such an extent.
No one spoke it out loud, but it was clear they could no longer contend with the Crown Prince.
Forget about reclaiming the throne; once the news reached the Crown Prince's ears, and he arranged for a second wave of assassins.
No one here would survive.
Of course, the real Second Prince had already died at Wu Heng's hands.
Wu Heng said, “We just arranged for assassins to kill the female city lord.”
“So we still have to resolve this misunderstanding.”
What a thing, to call an assassination a misunderstanding.
Wu Heng looked at the Commander, “How do you feel?”
The Commander replied, “Getting their support would be the best outcome for us, but figuring out who should handle this because Your Highness can't go there for safety reasons, we must choose someone capable of making decisions.”
After saying this, he looked directly at the administrative minister.
The latter's brow twitched but still stepped forward and said, “I am willing to go and talk with their messenger.”
“How many days till we can expect a result?”
“The journey takes three days, I will notify you as soon as possible,” the administrative minister said.
“Then depart as soon as possible, try to negotiate the cooperation,” Wu Heng's voice also immediately became stern.
“Alright.”
Then, the three of them sat together to discuss negotiable chips and acceptable conditions.
They also granted the administrative minister considerable authority for the negotiation.
After arranging some details.
The administrative minister and the Commander finally stood up and left.
After the two had left, Wu Heng remained seated.
He pondered the cooperation the two ministers had discussed.
From their attitudes, the disappearance or fleeing of all level 18 professionals in Nirali City was a huge pressure on them.
If not for their identities being completely bound to the Second Prince, they might have considered leaving with their wealth.
High level, and they had gathered enough money.
They could live well anywhere.
The threat from the Crown Prince forced cooperation with Lundham City.
Plainly speaking, they wanted to drag Lundham City into the fray, to openly antagonize the Crown Prince.
But for their own side,
If handled well, they could use this cooperation as a way to transfer the power in hand.
Diminish the role of the Second Prince, transfer all the land and power to Wen Mansha.
“Indeed a chance!”
Thinking this, Glenda and Bella flew back in from outside.
Glenda spoke first, “The Commander has arranged the Guard Team to escort the administrative minister out of the city.”
Bella followed, “I was with the administrative minister; he went home to pack up and even spoke to his family about his arrangements, it seems this minister really does care about the Second Prince.”
“According to Natalia, he was the Second Prince's teacher; there's probably some teacher-student affection there,” Wu Heng said.
Xiao Xiao muttered from the side, “The Second Prince must have been a good student.”
Glenda continued, “Are you planning to transfer the power to Wen Mansha through this negotiation?”
“Given the current situation, any condition Lundham City proposes will be accepted; if handled well, the transition could be made faster,” Wu Heng shared his earlier thoughts.
Bella nodded, “Yes, indeed.”
Xiao Xiao echoed, “Yes, indeed.”
Glenda quickly thought and then said, “There's another point to add in the negotiation.”
“Which one?”
“Request that the Second Prince stays in Lundham City, as a hostage or under the guise of his protection; you can't always stay here as this prince; once you head to Lundham City, you will be free,” Glenda asserted earnestly.
Wu Heng's eyes lit up, “I indeed hadn't thought of that; I'll have Wen Mansha include it.”
“Okay.”
After finishing their conversation, Wu Heng said, “Xiao Xiao, help me watch outside, let me know if anyone comes.”
“Okay.” Xiao Xiao flew to the door.
Wu Heng took out a portable radio, connected it, and tuned to Wen Mansha's frequency.
“Wen Mansha, can you hear me?”
After about a minute or two, Wen Mansha's voice came from the other side, “Master, I'm here.”
