Chapter 273 Destined
Steve may have been too shocked. Hearing this news, he was not too shocked. He just repeated mechanically:
"You mean, merge into the Blood-Headed Eagle Empire? This distance..."
Mr. Minglang nodded vigorously: "That's right, your father wants to merge the Sun Kite Kingdom into the Blood-Headed Eagle Empire, which is tens of thousands of kilometers away from here, and make it their enclave."
"And your brother decided to carry out the plan to kill the king because he couldn't accept this decision."
Mr. Minglang sighed again, even with a hint of a smile on his face, and continued:
"When it comes to getting the best of both worlds, striking a balance, and testing people's hearts, your father is definitely a genius. In this regard, he has a very bachelor-like temperament."
"He also clearly realized that in the upcoming world war, it would not make much difference whether he served as a pawn of the Blood Alliance or as an enclave of the Snow Head Eagle."
"If you fail, it will all be reduced to scorched earth or become someone else's spoils."
"But if the Blood Alliance wins the world war, then for an enclave tens of thousands of kilometers away from the Snow Head Eagle, I believe it won't be difficult to regain independence at that time."
After saying this, Mr. Minglang's tone suddenly changed:
"But this is after all courting disaster. In the final analysis, all your father did was to avenge Takeda Nagayoshi who betrayed him."
"He couldn't tolerate that a former top military general who betrayed him could enter the Sun Kite Kingdom again as a victor."
"So, because of this, he is willing to start a plague. Now, he is a little hysterical."
"However, this is also your best chance. If your brother and his men launch an attack, you must mobilize the Blood Shadow Army. After all, the combat effectiveness of the army under McTornado is ranked first."
"I estimate that they may launch a surprise attack similar to the Orange Army at that time."
"So now, what you need to do is to hand this document to McFlurry, tell him that you have discovered that someone is planning a plague attack, and then apply to go to the front line with him to investigate. Leave here and stay out of it."

When Steve heard this, he suddenly raised his head and looked at his teacher with shining eyes:
"You mean I won't participate?"
Mr. Ming nodded vigorously, his tone firm:
"Yes, this is the best choice for you. No matter whether Dennis and Alex's plan to kill the king succeeds or not, you will be the final winner."
Mr. Minglang's tone was exceptionally calm. He continued to analyze:
"If their plan to kill the king fails, then you will no longer be the first among the three heirs to this country, but the only heir to this country."
"And if your two good brothers succeed in their plan to kill the king, then you can come back with McTwister and the Blood Shadow Army, and with the support of the army, do your best to regain power."
"After all, you are the first in line to the throne."
Mr. Minglang looked at Steve's face, which was red and white at times, and said in a gentler tone:
"I know that the plan I am proposing to you now is to sever your father-son relationship."
"But if I don't propose this plan, then you will just become a stepping stone for your brother to ascend to the throne."
"So, I don't want you to regret it. Remember, this path is not chosen by you, but by your father."
"It was your father who pushed the Sun Yuan Kingdom and your Mai family step by step to this point. You and your two brothers had no choice."
"It's just that your luck is much better than those two."
Having said this, the whole room fell silent again.
After a long time, Steve picked up the folder on the desk with difficulty and held it tightly in his hands.
At this time, Mr. Minglang also smiled and nodded, turned and walked out of the room.
The moment he closed the door, he heard his favorite disciple muttering:
"Is it my destiny to betray my own father..."
The door was closed, and Mr. Minglang, with his back hunched, walked into the empty corridor again.
In an inaudible voice, he smiled and said to himself:
"That's right. Your fate has long been determined. Since the Mai family established their country through betrayal, they will also perish through betrayal."
Just when the eldest prince Steve made the difficult decision, more than a hundred kilometers away, Shen Yiyi in the Bastille was extremely happy.
Because, that hole was finally opened!
It took more than ten days, and without alerting her three roommates, Shen Yiyi used a simple silent drill to drill a palm-wide hole in the wall made of three kinds of composite materials.
This is finally the first step in the grand plan of jailbreaking!
Next, Miss Shen quickly took a piece of prepared cardboard and pasted it over the hole.
Then he quietly took some water, mixed it with mud and smeared it on the surface, making it look no different from the wall.
After that, I fell asleep. It took me nearly half a month to dig such a hole. It was really hard!
This also caused her to have very insufficient sleep every day.
Just a short while after waking up, Shen Yiyi started dreaming.
She dreamed that as soon as she opened her eyes, she was moved to another cell.
This made her so anxious that she burst into tears immediately...

Shen Yiyi cried so hard that she woke herself up from her dream.
She sat up suddenly and sat in a daze on the bed. After a long while, she suddenly realized that she was just dreaming.
However, her disturbance frightened the thief king, the middle-aged man and the former prison bully Heishan who were sleeping in the same cell.
In this tiny place, if Shen Yiyi really went crazy like a ghost, I'm afraid these people would be beaten into sugarcane residue by morning.
Fortunately, Shen Yiyi was stunned for a while, then lay down and continued to sleep.
Everyone then breathed a sigh of relief.
Soon, it was morning.
After breakfast, everyone gathered in the main square for roll call as usual.
At this time, the Bastille prison warden, who rarely appeared in public, stood on the podium and announced a big news:
In half a month, the "One Line of Life" unlimited fighting arena challenge will be held here.
By then, many dignitaries will come to watch.
Therefore, he warned all prisoners to behave themselves and not cause trouble during this period.
Anyone who does anything slightly out of line will be shot immediately.
At the same time, he also announced several restricted areas and demarcated areas for the construction of spectator stands and arenas.
Next, another deputy warden began to read out the list of prisoners who participated in the construction of the ring.
The prisoners selected this time are all relatively honest and well-behaved in daily life. They will cooperate with a professional construction team to build a huge grandstand.
And in the center of this stand, an extremely huge arena will be set up.
This arena can be divided and combined freely. During the preliminaries and semi-finals, it will be divided into nine smaller arenas.
In the final, they will be combined into a super large arena that can accommodate up to 30 people for collective fighting. In the end, only one person can win and get the chance to be pardoned by the emperor.
This behavior of making people fight each other like wild beasts, using fists, kicks and even teeth to bite each other, actually caters to the psychology of the "superior people" in the Riyuan Kingdom.
When they watched the so-called "lower class" fighting without limits for the slightest chance of survival, the excitement made them feel extremely refreshed.
No wonder, this is the favorite show of Emperor Macbeth of the Sun Yuan Kingdom.
This time, the construction of the arena and the audience seats was actually a lucrative job.
Prisoners who participate will receive corresponding holiday compensation and some extra meals.
Of course, as a spy who had just been imprisoned and sent in by the prince himself, Qin Xinghe had no chance of getting this job.
Many of those who were actually sent in to work were pre-determined by various gangs who bribed the prison guards.
In fact, from this time on, the power struggle among the various gangs inside the prison centered on the fighting ring competition began.
During this period, the prison guards will not interfere in the struggle between the various forces in the prison.
As long as they don't riot or escape from prison, the prison management will turn a blind eye even if some people die.
Even some prisons...
