Chapter 1187
"How much power do you think the Imperial Court still has?" "In this world, the power of the common people is much stronger than you imagine."
Su Fan said indifferently, then pointed his finger at Lv Bu's forehead. Instantly, streams of information were transmitted into Lv Bu's sea of consciousness.
"The power of hundreds of millions of people, when gathered together, cannot be stopped even by an Earth Immortal. The Imperial Court has lost the hearts of the people, lost these hundreds of millions of commoners, which means it has lost its power."
"What can a few Earth Immortals do? Under the great trend of the world, they cannot stop it. Under the giant waves, those people first consider self-preservation."
In the Great Qin era, perhaps mortals were like grass, but the Liu Han Imperial Court was a different situation.
Perhaps facing an Earth Immortal, mortals are still like ants, but when these hundreds of millions of ants gather together, even an Earth Immortal cannot stop them.
With hearts rebelling everywhere in Liu Han, Liu Han will never have a chance to turn the tables.
"The chaos of the Imperial Court, the local power controlled by aristocratic families, the common people at the bottom living in misery—eventually, someone will be unable to help but stand up."
"Once this happens, it will form a giant wave."
"By then, when the chaotic times arrive, the Imperial Court will have no time to worry about anything else."
"So that's how it is!"
Lv Bu, at this moment, was dazed, his eyes gradually brightening: "So this is the reason why the Yuan Prince's Mansion has been recruiting us martial generals."
"The ambition of the Yuan Prince's Mansion seems not small."
Lv Bu was not stupid; he was not the purely crude person from history. After all, in the transcendent era, once one practiced, there were no fools.
Lv Bu was not a greenhouse flower hiding in a sect to practice. The rise of his Lu Clan over three generations was not smooth sailing either.
In the army, it was not that simple to stand out.
Without some methods, how could it be possible?
Having experienced quite a lot, Lv Bu also had his own thoughts. Now, after Su Fan's guidance, he instantly synthesized everything and understood a lot.
"Who doesn't have ambition?"
"Even you have ambition, let alone the Yuan Prince's Mansion, which is already ranked among the human extremes."
"Doesn't that mean that it won't be long before I can strike back?"
Lv Bu thought of this suddenly, and the cold look in his eyes burst forth.
"Correct! When the chaotic times arrive, it is indeed possible. However, are you sure you can take revenge by then? The Yuan Prince's Mansion has a full million elites. Unless you are always prepared to ambush."
"Are you sure you can do it?"
Su Fan looked at Lv Bu with a smile, and the latter fell silent upon hearing this.
Although he was not a great man, he still felt some disdain for ambushes. What he wanted was to defeat the opponent openly and kill the person who dared to plot against him amidst their million-strong army.
"Then I will wait until my strength reaches that point."
Lv Bu said in a deep voice. To kill someone in front of a million-strong army, what is needed is not the peak of Spirit Refining, but at least the cultivation of the Earth Immortal realm.
Lv Bu had sufficient confidence in breaking through to the Earth Immortal realm, so his tone was deep but very firm.
"In the struggle of great trends, your strength is improving, but will others stop moving forward? The foundation of the Yuan Prince's Mansion is thicker than yours. They can borrow the luck of the great trend, and their strength can improve faster."
Su Fan shook his head. He naturally knew Lv Bu's confidence; the other party indeed had this potential.
But to be honest, the actions of the Yuan Prince's Mansion—perhaps ascending to the throne in the end might be difficult, but that doesn't mean they are worse in the early stages.
Even with the foundation of the Yuan Prince's Mansion, they definitely occupy a great advantage in the early stages of the struggle for the dragon.
After all, the Yuan Prince's Mansion currently commands a million troops. Once the chaotic times approach, they are enough to become the largest force among the thirty northern provinces.
Dominating in chaotic times, quickly defeating Youzhou, is enough to become the King of the North.
This advantage and potential are incomparable to anyone else.
Even those top-tier aristocratic families cannot compare. Perhaps the history of the Yuan Prince's Mansion cannot compare to some aristocratic families.
But in terms of true power, the Yuan Prince's Mansion is not inferior at all.
Over these thousands of years, the Yuan Prince's Mansion has deeply cultivated the northern border. Who knows how many people are their people?
In history, the Yuan Clan was "Three Excellencies for Four Generations," with students and former officials all over the world. The Yuan Prince's Mansion has a history of thousands of years and has always controlled the army.
This is true real power.
Although the fief only covers one province, the areas they can involve are absolutely terrifying.
This is a force even more terrifying than the Yuan Clan in history.
Su Fan was even clearer that in the many provinces of the Beidi, many local armies and officials were closely related to the Yuan Prince's Mansion.
It can be said that this Yuan Prince's Mansion likely started preparing a thousand years ago.
Outsiders don't know, but Su Fan knows that in addition to the million-strong army controlled by the Yuan Prince's Mansion on the surface, it can be said that the armies secretly defecting to the Yuan Prince's Mansion are no less than a million.
Among them, there is no shortage of elites.
The majestic luck of the Yuan Prince's Mansion is also very shocking, and it is definitely much stronger than the Taiping Dao now.
On this point, Su Fan has to admire that the first generation of the Yuan Prince, that old Yuan Prince, has not died.
Instead, he has cultivated well with the help of the Yuan Prince's Mansion's luck, and now he has reached the realm of a True Immortal.
That the Yuan Prince's Mansion has today is likely only due to his guidance from behind; otherwise, it would be impossible to remain firm under the intentional or unintentional suppression of the Imperial Court.
You must know that during the time of the Liu Han Taizu, the Yuan Prince's Mansion could exist intact because of the relationship between the Yuan Prince and the Liu Han Taizu.
That Taizu had been saved by the Yuan Prince many times.
Moreover, the great cause of Liu Han Taizu was also firmly established under the constant support of this Yuan Prince.
But during the time of Emperor Wu, the Yuan Prince's Mansion was different. That Emperor Wu had great talent and bold vision, and his personality was also arrogant.
During his reign, he took down countless aristocratic families. Even among the Liu princes, there were dozens, and as for the relatives of the Emperor, who knows how many there were.
And the Yuan Prince's Mansion, which possessed military power, was definitely a nail in his side. But during the time of Emperor Wu, they stubbornly survived, only losing a lot of troops.
And their military power was not completely abolished.
The political methods involved cannot be said to be weak. Except for the first generation of the Yuan Prince, I am afraid that none of the later Yuan Princes could have held on.
That Yuan Prince was indeed a person who was both civil and martial. Although not in history, even if he were in history, he would definitely be on the list.
However, judging from the recent actions of the Yuan Prince's Mansion, Su Fan estimates that the first generation of the Yuan Prince is likely no longer paying attention.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for the other party to use the scheme of borrowing a knife to kill, hurting Zhang Hu and Lv Bu.
From the traces of the first generation of the Yuan Prince, Su Fan can see that his character was still considered upright.
And he himself was a nationalist. ===== CHAPTER 1188 =====
