Reincarnation Paradise
Chapter 1155 Big shot
Seeing the information of these five people, Bubu Wang was obviously entangled. In his opinion, the probability of these five people becoming the new king was not low.
Of course, these five people are only the most likely to become the new kings, and the remaining ones are not completely hopeless.
These competitors can basically be classified into four types. The first type is those who voluntarily abstained, with a total of 18 people. The second type is those who are soy sauce, with a total of 16 people. The third type is ambitious but not powerful, with a total of 10 people. The fourth type is those who have Ambition also has strength, those are the five princes and princesses.
In the following period, Su Xiao will of course pay due attention to these people. After all, his main mission is related to these people. He needs to choose one of the 49 princes or princesses and let him successfully inherit the throne.
Su Xiao still has 14 days of observation time, so he is not in a hurry to make a choice.
Walking on the bustling streets, Su Xiao quickly arrived near the palace.
As Su Xiaogang approached the palace, the expressions of the officials talking at the entrance of the palace changed. It was obviously not possible for them to just walk away. It would be too embarrassing. As for standing there blocking the way, forget it.
Now, in the eyes of these officials, the Iron Hand is a combination of the God of Death, the God of Plague, and the God of Death.
The three officials walked towards the palace, keeping their expressions as natural as possible.
The old king's summons today was not to discuss matters, but to hold a banquet and a luncheon.
Of course, this meal was not that delicious, because ten princes or princesses also attended the banquet, and all officials with real power in the royal capital must also be present. This banquet must be very 'lively'.
When Su Xiao entered the banquet hall in the palace, she found that more than a hundred people had gathered here.
Don't underestimate these more than a hundred people. If you pick out any one of these people, they are all big shots. They have no real power or huge wealth in their hands, and they are not qualified to attend this luncheon.
There are many long square tables placed in the banquet hall. On the square tables are placed high-end drinks, various rare fruits, exquisite snacks, etc.
The old king has not shown up yet, so the atmosphere in the banquet hall is very lively. Among the many officials, there are also many big businessmen. Although they have a lot of wealth in their hands, their status in the banquet hall is not high.
The reason why the old king summoned these big businessmen was mainly to let them meet the princes or princesses. His intention was very obvious, and he wanted to choose one of them to support him.
The big businessmen who caught the old king's eyes were certainly not small figures, but in today's banquet hall, they had become small figures.
As soon as Su Xiao entered the banquet hall, many eyes focused on him.
"Hey, this way."
A rough shout came. Of course, the person who dared to greet the Iron Hand like this was not a small character. This person was the commander of the Kingdom's army, Heslett, who was in charge of the kingdom's military power. He was dressed in black and had several horizontal lines on his face. Crossed scars.
There were two people sitting next to Heslett. One of them, Su Xiao recognized, was the old man Rowan Harvey, the Kingdom's financial officer. The other Su Xiao had never seen. According to his guess, this person was probably the old man. Archon Joe Valentine.
Including Su Xiao, the old king's four most trusted confidants are here.
Su Xiao stepped forward and walked in the direction of Rowan Harvey and others. In the past, Rowan Harvey would have shown a hostile attitude, but it was different today. He no longer needed to show that hostile attitude.
"Iron Hand, you ran away early yesterday, but I haven't had a good sleep yet."
The old man Rowan Harvey spoke, his face showing fatigue that could not be concealed. It seemed that ransacking a house was not an easy job.
Su Xiao sat in front of the wooden table, with three people sitting side by side, including Rowan Harvey. This square table was the closest to the old king's seat. Except for Su Xiao and the other four, no one else was qualified to sit here, even those princes or Neither can the princess.
"Killing is not easy either. I met Joseph Ke last night."
Su Xiao also changed his previous reticent attitude, because he knew that the current situation was very special.
Before the struggle for power begins, Su Xiao and the other four officials who are most trusted by the old king must have some minor conflicts with each other. Even if the conflicts are just for fun, it is actually an attitude that makes the old king feel at ease.
It's different now. The previous situation where they had minor conflicts with each other is obviously not suitable for the current situation.
Once the struggle for power begins, no matter how many officials the old king kills, the situation in the royal capital will be a little turbulent. At this point in time, of course, there cannot continue to be 'small conflicts' between the four people. On the contrary, the four people must show unity , so as to help the old king calm down the scene.
"Joseph Co?"
The commander of the Kingdom Army, Heslett, spoke. He obviously recognized Joseph Ke.
"Right now he……"
Heslett asked seemingly unintentionally, but in fact, he wanted Joseph Co to live.
"He was killed by me. If you guessed it correctly, he came to repay a debt of gratitude."
"Is this so?"
Heslett sighed, with some regret in his eyes. This regret was not for fun, but from the bottom of his heart. He had fought side by side with Joseph Co.
"have a drink."
Heslett picked up the wine glass, which was filled with wine. Rowan Harvey and Archon Joe Valentine both picked up the metal wine glasses, and Su Xiao also picked up the wine glasses.
Ding~
The four people clinked their glasses and drank it all in one go. This was an attitude. Many people in the banquet hall saw the four people clinking their glasses.
"Bai Ye, let's talk about something private. When you killed the high priest last night, did he say anything interesting? That guy was a master."
Archon Joe Valentine spoke, a thin middle-aged man who was responsible for managing most of the officials.
Hearing Joe Valentine mention the high priest, Su Xiao turned to look at him.
"Interesting thing? He said he wanted to marry his daughter to me and asked me to spare his life."
"The high priest has a daughter?"
"Maybe it's an illegitimate daughter. That guy's behavior has always been inappropriate, but with that guy's appearance, his daughter..."
"Hahaha."
Heslett laughed out loud, this guy has a bold personality.
"Speaking of which, who are you optimistic about this time?"
The little old man Rowan Harvey put down the wine glass in his hand and shook it with both hands. He was definitely a favorite in the power struggle. After all, he held the financial power.
"I like the third prince. I like him no matter what."
The commander of the army, Heslett, spoke. His support for the third prince was what everyone thought of. As for being on the wrong team, don’t be kidding. What if Heslett was on the wrong team? He holds the military power in his hands. Once Heslett dies, the joke will be big, and the frontline theater may collapse.
As long as the new king's mind is normal, no matter who Heslett supports, the new king cannot touch Heslett, but will win over the commander of the kingdom's army.
"Who do you support? Do you think I don't want to live anymore?"
Joe Valentine laughed dryly. He couldn't reveal who he supported at will. It would be bad if he stood on the wrong side.
"Valentin, were you beaten by your wife again? Why is your face so blue?"
The little old man Rowan Harvey began to tease Joe Valentine. Joe Valentine, a big man, has a characteristic, that is, he is henpecked. His wife is a super ruthless person. When the two couples spend the night together, whoever rubs against who is the real one? uncertain.
"Shut up, old pig."
"He was definitely beaten hard by his wife again,"
Heshlett added fuel to the fire.
"A reckless man, an old man, you two are cunts."
Joe Valentine swears again.
These three people are the most powerful people outside the old king, so a big man must be serious? Behaving politely? It's not that these big figures also use foul language in private, but it's just not known to outsiders. In the eyes of outsiders, they are aloof and have a sense of majesty just sitting there.
Not to mention these three people, the old king would also swear at Su Xiao and the other four people when he was extremely angry. One time, the old king was so angry with Hexlett that he pointed at Heshlett's nose and yelled, "Get out of here." ', these are the cronies. If other officials anger the old king, no, they have no chance of angering the old king, because they have turned into corpses before that.
At the dining table in the distance, two girls aged seventeen or eighteen were chatting and laughing in a low voice. They were two princesses, but because they were younger, they gave up the fight for power, so they did not need to scheming with each other.
"Lidya, what do you think the four of them are discussing?"
One of the princesses spoke.
"I don't know. They must be discussing something important. Mr. Joe Valentine's face turned red. It must be something very important."
Lidya is actually also curious about what national events Su Xiao and the other four are talking about.
In fact, Rowan Harvey was describing a time when he and Joe Valentine were having fun, and then Joe Valentine's wife blocked the door. Joe Valentine was so scared that he didn't even put on his pants. He jumped out of the window, but this guy was worthy of being a consul, and his IQ was absolutely top-notch. Although he was naked, he covered a particularly critical part with his hands, which was his face.
At this moment, the door of the banquet hall was pushed open and the king arrived.
PS: (Two updates today, just treat it as a day off. The temperature in the north has dropped sharply recently, so it’s natural that the little plastic body of the waste mosquito will catch a cold.)
