Reincarnation Paradise
Chapter 1176 One-third of the Burden
Judging from the current situation, Su Xiao feels that the struggle for power will end soon. The old king will not let the struggle for power continue to be delayed, and he will not allow it to be delayed now.
If the original situation were to follow, it would be obviously impossible to help a prince or princess rise to power in a short period of time.
The most favorable contenders at the moment, the eldest prince and the third prince, have withdrawn for the sake of the kingdom, leaving a total of 29 remaining contenders.
Among these 29 people, the seventh prince and the second princess. The Sixth Princess has the highest chance of winning. The remaining 26 people are either fooling around or ambitious but incompetent.
The seventh prince has no military power and average financial resources, but he can summon a large number of holy warriors, which means he has a huge number of high-end combat capabilities.
This kind of person, if he wants to, is more likely to inherit the throne than the eldest prince, but this guy is too Buddhist and a bit lazy.
Su Xiao seriously doubted whether this guy was really willing to become the new king, which was why he didn't directly choose the seventh prince before.
If the seventh prince is really ambitious, then Su Xiao is 70% sure that he will become the new king. As for the other princes or princesses, if they are willing to give up, they will have a way to live. If they are not willing to give up, they will all be killed.
Although Su Xiao is an Iron Hand and it is not convenient for him to directly support anyone, the current situation is obviously different.
The assassination plan of the Necrons and the hidden financial risks of the kingdom make the current Saint Sodin Kingdom need a new king instead of a long-term power struggle.
The old king must know this, but he cannot directly appoint a new king, which will make the power system more unstable.
If Su Xiao guessed correctly, the old king would not let the current situation go unnoticed, he would definitely have some countermeasures.
Cutting the mess quickly and finding a new king from among the many heirs is the best way to solve the current crisis.
While Su Xiao was thinking about what to do next, a guard walked into the meeting hall. He came to Su Xiao and whispered something to Su Xiao.
Su Xiao was obviously a little surprised at first, then nodded.
"This old lion is more ruthless than I thought."
Su Xiao muttered, with a smile on his face. Compared with himself, the old king wanted to end the struggle for power as soon as possible. Now that the enemy is facing him, it would be a bit crazy to continue the struggle for power.
Su Xiao looked at the sixth princess. The second princess on the side closed her eyes and said, "It shouldn't be too late for me to quit now."
"You don't need to give up just yet."
Su Xiao spoke. The old king asked him to do something just now to speed up the selection of the new king.
The old king and many officials were not blind. It was obvious which princes and princesses were qualified to inherit the throne.
The so-called struggle for power does not mean that all princes or princesses try their luck. Whoever is lucky can inherit the new king. On the contrary, only with the approval of the majority of officials can that person inherit the throne. The struggle for power is not about luck, but Competing ability.
The abilities of the eldest prince, third prince, seventh prince, and second princess are all obvious. They all meet the requirements for inheriting the throne in some aspects. As for the non-royal heirs in the second echelon, Rowan Harvey has just committed treason. Who the hell dares to let him pass? These people serve as the new kings? Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst. If someone from the Necro clan really becomes the new king, then the Saint Sodin Kingdom will not be far away from being destroyed.
The finances within the kingdom are in a mess, and there is also a hidden time bomb. The undead clan outside the God's Wall is ready to make a move. Under the current situation, it is no longer 1 out of 29, but 1 out of 4.
Su Xiao stepped up to the Sixth Princess, Mad Dog Sixth Princess narrowed her eyes.
"Iron Hand, are you trying to kill me?"
The Sixth Princess is not stupid. On the contrary, she has seen the current situation clearly.
"You have one chance to give up."
Su Xiao took out the golden lion pendant. The old king did not take it back before because Su Xiao needed it for what he was going to do next.
The Sixth Princess glanced at the golden lion pendant, pursed her slender lips, and raised the corners of her mouth.
"I don't choose."
The sixth princess stared at Su Xiao and spoke word by word. There was nothing but murder in her eyes. In fact, anyone with a discerning eye could see that this sixth princess was not mentally normal. If placed in the reincarnation paradise, maybe she could Become a ruthless person.
Click!
In the flash of lightning, Su Xiao's hand had already grabbed the sixth princess's neck and pinched her neck.
The sixth princess's body leaned softly on the seat, and the pupils of the other four people in the meeting hall tightened.
"Iron Hand, are you crazy?"
The third prince's voice was very deep. No matter how crazy the sixth princess was, she was still a royal.
"This should be what the father meant."
The eldest prince was obviously much calmer.
"Father..."
The third prince stopped talking after thinking about the current situation. The current situation obviously meant that the internal fighting could not continue.
Su Xiao turned around and walked out of the meeting hall. There were other princesses or princes waiting for him to deal with.
When reaching the door of the meeting hall, Su Xiao stopped.
"Congratulations to the four of you for successfully advancing."
Su Xiao opened the door and walked out of the meeting hall.
"ha?"
The corner of the second princess' mouth twitched. Although she knew what was going on, she didn't expect that the old king would actually do this.
Now all the princes and princesses have arrived in the royal capital. They do not live in the palace, but in various parts of the royal capital.
What the old king asked Su Xiao to do was very simple. Except for the eldest prince, third prince, seventh prince, and second princess, the other princes or princesses did not perform very well in this power struggle. In other words, except for these four people In addition, most of the other people are just having fun, or engaging in some small tricks, or even having a tryst.
The old king was really angry about the incestuous tryst between a certain prince and a princess. He even thought about asking Su Xiao to get rid of these two people directly to avoid such scandal from spreading.
However, the sister-in-law princess was a bit tough. She was a strong holy warrior, so the old king could only choose to turn a blind eye to prevent the matter from getting worse.
…
In front of the door of a luxurious three-story house, Su Xiao knocked on the door. About two minutes later, a woman wearing a blanket opened the door. Except for wearing a blanket, the woman's upper body was completely empty, and her abdominal muscles were clearly visible. .
"Iron Hand?"
The woman looked at Lidya Su up and down with some doubts in her eyes.
"Give up this power struggle."
Su Xiao got straight to the point, and there were many princes or princesses waiting for him to 'greet'.
"What do you mean, father?"
This female man wearing a blanket is very tough, but she is a princess.
"You can understand that."
The tomboyish princess curled her lips: "What good do I get?"
In terms of force, she was not afraid of the Iron Hand, or so she thought.
"No one will pursue the matter between you and your brother from now on."
The bait thrown by Su Xiao was not small. After hearing this, the tomboyish princess reached out and grabbed Su Xiao's shoulders: "Really?"
The blanket slid down a little, and the spring light suddenly appeared. This action of the female man almost caused Su Xiao to draw a knife and chop off her head.
"literal meaning."
"Okay, I agree."
The tomboy princess is very sincere, so sincere that she exposed her breasts.
Things went smoother than expected. Su Xiao turned around and left. The tomboyish princess pulled the blanket on her shoulders. She looked at Su Xiao's back.
After a moment, the tomboyish princess suddenly shouted: "Is the situation already so bad? Help me tell my father that if I need to go to the battlefield, I will not refuse."
Su Xiao stopped, and the tomboyish princess raised her chin at Su Xiao. They all knew the difference between these princes, princesses, and palace fighting dramas. That is, the continuation of the kingdom was more important than rights. If there was no kingdom, they would all be killed. The undead tribe chased them to the ends of the earth.
Su Xiao began to 'interview' the princes or princesses participating in this power struggle one by one. Most of them had a surprisingly consistent attitude, that is, they could give up, but they could not deprive them of the territory under their rule.
These territories are a 'consolation prize' for giving up the fight for rights. The old king has long agreed to this. As for the territory of the new prince, he can no longer think about it so much. How to survive the current disaster is the key.
In about 2 hours, Su Xiao 'interviewed' a total of 26 princes or princesses. Two of them were extremely ambitious, and someone has already taken care of their funeral affairs.
Su Xiao left the last princess's house with a smile on his face. Judging from the current situation, he had a chance to complete the main mission first. Although the stay time would be greatly reduced, there were many missions in the native world, which allowed Su Xiao's stay time was greatly extended.
If he completes the main mission, the burden on Su Xiao's shoulders will be reduced by one-third, and there will be no restrictions on his actions in the royal capital. It doesn't matter even if he falls out with the royal family directly, the worst result is to kill him.
Even the old king would be wary of an unfettered Iron Hand. If the old king knew Su Xiao's true identity, I wonder how surprised or horrified his expression would be?
