Immortal V4C15: The struggle of City Lord.

Translated by: RedLotus.

Five days later, Zhong Shan knew everything about the general situation.

Great Luo Heavenly Dynasty has four great crown princes, also the four crown princes were respectively sealed as princes, so that prince can hold two Middle Positions, although could not completely overlay to twenty times the speed of the original cultivation, but there were also fifteen times the speed of cultivation which was a lot faster than ten times which was only for the Prince.

His Majesty has numerous male offspring, but there were only four crown Princes, because these four have the most potential. It was not necessarily to be the son of His Majesty, might be a grandson, as long as he was a descendant of His Majesty, he would have the opportunity.

Similarly, the princess division system was also different from the mortal division. The female descendants of His Majesty were called princess, holding a Soft Position. Only some special people have the chance to be sealed as princesses, holding a Middle Position and have ten times cultivation speed.

Princess Qianyou, the daughter of the great crown prince, the granddaughter of His Majesty, was sealed as a Princess, holding the Middle Position of Heaven and Earth Virtue Position and has ten times cultivation speed.

The four great crown princes, each of them was a peerless, fierce and ambitious character, the great crown prince, the father of Princess Qianyou, Crown Prince Zhengyi, and also known as King Zhengyi.

The Unparalleled City here, in fact, was actually the area under the influence of two great crown princes.

The second great crown prince, Great Xuan Crown Prince, also known as Great Xuan King. Great Xuan King, with his mighty strength, can resist the Great Yu Emperor Dynasty.

This side, whether it was a civil official or a military commander, were mostly the people of Great Xuan King. Except for His Majesty, in this area, Great Xuan King has the largest influence, no one can have the influence of the Great Xuan King.

Unparalleled City City Lord was a person of the Great Xuan King. The army of the Unparalleled City belonged to the Great Xuan King. However, the Four City Officials were appointed by the royal court. The Northern City Official was a person of Great Xuan King, while the Southern City Official was the person of King Zhengyi.

Once the City Lord is promoted, it is necessary to elect a new City Lord among the Four City Officials.

Now, there was an election between the Four City Officials.

Originally, this was screened by the royal court, and it was handed over to His Majesty, then His Majesty would directly decide which one to be the city lord. If it was according to the original situation, so when Wuchaung city lord was promoted, there was no doubt that Northern City Official Mo Baili was the next one to be the city lord.

However, the political situation was complicated. The Great Luo Heavenly Dynasty Capital was full of turbulence, and everyone didn't hope that the Great Xuan King side to prosper steadily. So there were violent debates rising in all directions.

The four great crown princes had their own ideas, and there was a collision of the potentials, their respective trusted advisors offered their suggestions, above the deliberation hall, they said that they would hide the truth about this plan then reveal everything after it was completed. At that time the situation would be extremely complicated, such as the Heaven and Earth laws which were without form and invisible.

By observing calmly the deliberation hall, they can manage Heaven and Earth audiences.

Above the royal court, His Majesty was waiting for the battle of various officials, to sort out his thoughts, as if to sort out Heaven and Earth laws, to bring order out of chaos, unravel the situation, and to frighten Great Luo.

His Majesty's words were like the destiny. He was taking care of Heaven and Earth. He was handling the complicated affairs of the dynasty on a daily basis. It was not mentally exhausting, but it was like experiencing the highest matters of Heaven and Earth, all phenomena on the earth and the laws of Heavenly Dao.

To sort out under the heavens in order to meet the heavenly power!

Unparalleled City, it was a fortress and was located on the border with the Great Yu Emperor Dynasty. It was a strong city, a fortress and a barrier.

The position of city lord is a Soft Position, receiving Luck which was due to being sealed by Heavenly Dynasty, and also receiving the Luck of the city. Although it is still of the Soft Position, but the degree of Luck he receives, is much more compared with an Soft Position official of Dynasty Capital.

The position of the Soft Position, cultivation speed is normally three times, but in this City Lord position, it may be 3.5 times, or even more than four times. Similarly, the former City Lord was a subordinate of Great Xuan King, so Great Xuan King was receiving some of his Luck.

Although this Luck was not much, but it was better than nothing. If he gathers a little from one place, he would gather a lot from many places. If he was gathering a lot of Luck, who would give up this opportunity?

This time, after the dispute of the royal court, the final result was achieved, and it was also approved by His Majesty.

The Four City Officials were allowed to run campaigns for themselves, and the ruling person will be jointly selected by Unparalleled City’s millions grassroots and officials. This was not the first time, but, in this way, everyone was satisfied.

Great Xuan King believed in his power in Unparalleled City. The army was basically his own granary. The former City Lord had been operating for so many years. Losing in the election, it was obviously impossible to say.

As for King Zhengyi, he was very satisfied now. What he couldn't have, now he has a chance. Moreover Southern City Official Shui Tianya was still his own person. Sending his most intelligent daughter to help, there will be a chance to succeed.

Everyone else was watching quietly.

Unparalleled City, adding common people, military personnel, and officials, has a total of 10 million people. It was a powerful city. Among them, the military has a huge population of 1.2 million, and there were more than 50,000 officials of all kinds, and the remaining 8.75 million were all grassroots.

Looking at the data at hand, Zhong Shan was soaking in a hot spring that was sparkling with thunder current. Relaxing in the hot spring, there were thousands of thoughts in his mind.

In just a few days, Princess Qianyou mobilized the enormous resources, creating a new environment for Zhong Shan, an environment that was most suitable for Zhong Shan cultivation.

The Thunder Stone martial arts room, Pure Thunder Spirit Fruit and special wine were gathered to help in cultivation. Even the extremely beautiful maidservants were serving to adjust the current intensity of this hot spring, to make Zhong Shan continue cultivation.

The external conditions given to Zhong Shan were the best. Naturally, this best treatment was because of the ability of Zhong Shan. If Zhong Shan was a country bumpkin and even has an extremely good body root, he would still be just a stupid thug. Even a person who has a great potential, his value would still be inferior to those who have a higher cultivation boundary.

Zhong Shan was a man of sentiment. In the past, he received the kindness of Princess Qianyou at Eight Gates Mountain, but he was the sole winner. Although it was based on his ability, Zhong Shan always owed a favor to Princess Qianyou. If was not for Princess Qianyou, Yinglan would not get the inheritance of Eight Gate Golden Lock Array. The courteous reception here was one aspect, but the original kindness of Yinglan receiving the inheritance still needed to be repaid.

Therefore, these days, Zhong Shan was racking his brains thinking to find a solution.

Shui Tianya was obviously at a disadvantage. The army definitely will choose Mo Baili, and many of the wealthy and powerful families in Unparalleled City already have an agreement with the original City Lord. They will definitely choose Mo Baili with their servants and relatives. Four City Officials were leading the Unparalleled City four directions. As for the south of the city, Shui Tianya still has not fully grasped it. If they wanted to achieve the final election success, it will be quiet difficult! Extremely difficult!

After soaking in the hot spring for a while, Zhong Shan gently got up and walked out of the hot spring. the peerless beautiful maidservant who was arranged by Princess Qianyou, quickly dried the body of Zhong Shan, and neatly put his clothes on, then Zhong Shan walked out slowly.

When he first arrived to the main hall, he suddenly saw Princess Qianyou carrying a teacup. Ah Da and Ah Er were standing behind while Shui Tianya was sitting on the side.

Princess Qianyou was still in men’s clothes and looked unusually refined.

"Uh? Did the princess come? Why did not someone report it?" Zhong Shan immediately went forward and said with an ashamed appearance.

"Mister was bathing, and Qianyou, naturally, didn't want to bother." Princess Qianyou said with a smile.

"The princess is polite." Zhong Shan shook his head and said with a smile.

"Mister, what about the City Lord elections? Have you though of the means?" Princess Qianyou asked immediately.

Zhong Shan walked over to the chair opposite Princess Qianyou and sat down.

"Princess, can you tell me about this Mr. Shui Jing? I have been thinking about it for a while, but I still need to understand the situation of the other party." Zhong Shan said.

"Speaking of Mr. Shui Jing, except for my father, His Majesty, and of course Mister, Qianyou has admired Mr. Shui Jing the most, I have been in contact with Mr. Shui Jing for a long time, Mr. Shui Jing is the rare talent under the heavens, his strategies are extremely dreadful, but also likes to remain hidden. Because of special reasons, he is staying at the Great Xuan King palace. I have invited him many times but I could not convince him." Princess Qianyou said.

Upon hearing what Princess Qianyou said, Zhong Shan frowned. From these few days, Zhong Shan could feel the great intelligence of Princess Qianyou, moreover she was a very proud person. Although she has been calling him Mister, it was only a way of flattering. She really didn't admire him from the bottom of the heart, but this Mr. Shui Jing was given such a high appraisal by Princess Qianyou?

"Mr. Shui Jing and Gu Lin, arrived in Unparalleled City three days earlier than me. In these three days, Mr. Shui Jing convinced the Eastern City Official and the Western City Official to abandon their campaigns and also promised to help the Northern City Official Mo Baili campaign." Princess Qianyou said with a frown.

"In other words, now the east, west and north of the city are helping Mo Baili, while Lord Shui now only has the south of the city, and yet has not completely grasped it?" Zhong Shan took a deep breath and said.

"Good” Shui Tianya nodded slightly with a sigh. The situation was really very bad.

"Does the princess have any previous arrangements?" Zhong Shan asked.

"The princess asked me to make a thousand subordinates to mix between the ordinary common people. They are making a propaganda for me in Unparalleled City, letting the people in the city know that, so long as I took the position, I will reduce taxes and give enormous policies that benefit the common people. In other words, They are garnering the votes of the common people." Shui Tianya said.

"I really admire what the princess has done." Zhong Shan said right away.

This was a propaganda to boast up the support, although it was only the foundation, but it was not something that anyone could do.

"Mister is teasing me, if I can find someone to garner the votes, also Mr. Shui Jing can do, there are also many people who are promoting Mo Baili in Unparalleled City." Princess Qianyou shook her head and said.

"Oh, garnering votes is a normal matter, but this is a long process, and it is impossible to quickly turn the tables around, so I just have an idea for the princess." Zhong Shan suddenly said with a smile.

When she heard Zhong Shan say that he had an idea, the eyes of Princess Qianyou were flashing brightly, because the ten staff advisors under Princess Qianyou, none of them could come up with any idea. Did Zhong Shan have one in just these few days?

Shui Tianya was also looking at Zhong Shan, he didn't know what was said, was true or false!

They only saw that Zhong Shan turned his hand and took out a pile of Chinese chess pieces, then placed the white Chinese Chess pieces on the south and north sides of the tea table. Then four black Chinese Chess pieces were put around the south, east, north, west borders.

Zhong Shan picked up the black Chinese Chess piece and moved it near a pile of white Chinese Chess pieces gently, and said with a smile: "Now, if Great Yu Emperor Dynasty is about to attack Unparalleled City, Princess, what do you think that this black chess in the south should do?"

Zhong Shan Just gave them a riddle. Shui Tianya did not understand, he was staring at the black chess piece between Zhong Shan’s fingertips with a doubtful facial expression, but Princess Qianyou suddenly slammed the tea table and stood up with excitement.
