Reincarnation Paradise
Chapter 1179 Grade? ? ?
In the meeting hall, the old king looked around at everyone. The situation at the moment was already obvious. The third prince secretly united with the Iron Hand, the consul Joe Valentine and others. As for the commander of the kingdom's army, Heslett, he was originally the force. Like the third prince, but Heslett has already gone to the border.
The third prince was originally one of the two most promising candidates to become the new king, but the assassination of the little princess caused his advantage to completely disappear, and the third prince was unwilling to accept it.
In fact, the third prince had a large number of troops in his hands. If he wanted to rebel, no one could stop him. But the third prince did not rebel. In other words, he was always trying to maintain the stability of the royal capital, no matter how great his disadvantage in the struggle for power was. , he will not mobilize the troops guarding the Wall of God. He can seize power and fail, but the Wall of God must be defended. The third prince has always known which is more important.
Originally, the third prince had no hope, but who knew that Rowan Harvey had actually committed treason. Upon hearing the news, the third prince was surprised and delighted. Rowan Harvey's treason almost caused the eldest prince's advantage to plummet.
Rowan Harvey was in charge of the finances, and the eldest prince also held certain financial powers, so the two must have an unclear relationship.
When he heard the news about Rowan Harvey's treason, the eldest prince was so frightened that he almost peed out. Rowan Harvey had treason, and his eldest prince would definitely not get any good results. The kingdom's finances are a whole, not divided into separate parts. .
Therefore, the eldest prince immediately expressed his loyalty, that is, he withdrew from the power struggle and devoted himself to stabilizing the kingdom's finances. It seemed righteous, but in fact he was protecting his own life.
The old king was not surprised that the eldest prince stood up, because the old king knew the eldest prince's character, that cautious, elegant, but hypocritical character. This was actually very similar to the old king when he was young, so the old king liked the eldest prince very much.
But the third prince also stood up, which surprised the old king. In the old king's view, the eldest prince was forced to withdraw, and the third prince was the most favorable candidate.
The third prince just stood up. Not only did he stand up, he also jumped towards the throne.
The third prince jumped to the throne, and one person's help was indispensable for this. That person was Joe Valentine. This henpecked guy just knelt in front of the old king and burst into tears, but now he stood behind the third prince. .
The gift of acquaintance? Don't be kidding, the old king is determined to kill Joe Valentine. How can Joe Valentine care about the kindness of acquaintance? The royal power is ruthless, and the ministers under the royal power will value love and justice?
"Father, I hope my son will not disappoint you."
The third prince walked towards the old king. He had some potential as a tyrant, he was iron-blooded, ruthless and decisive, but he was also thoughtful.
The third prince stepped onto the stone stairs in front of the throne, and he approached the throne step by step.
The royal capital, in a luxurious courtyard.
"kill!!"
Hundreds of 'Jade Guards' formed a battle formation, and they surrounded a young man covered in blood in the center.
"A sign of death."
The young man roared angrily, and invisible energy spread around.
"Shield array!"
With a crash, hundreds of 'Jiang Guards' blocked the giant shields in their hands in front of them, and the invisible energy swept through them. These guards took a few steps back, but they immediately stepped forward in order, pulling the young man away. Surrounded in the center.
"ah!!"
The young man roared angrily, unwilling to accept it. Although his face was stained with blood, he was a handsome man. He was... the seventh prince!
The third prince took action against the seventh prince. Others would be wary of the seventh prince's appeal as a holy warrior, but the third prince didn't care. He had an army. Under the dense human sea tactics, any holy warrior who dared to make a mistake would also die.
In a courtyard somewhere in the royal capital.
Pfft. Puff, puff...
Intensive stabbing sounds were heard. Several assassins dressed in black and holding daggers were stabbing a middle-aged man wildly. The middle-aged man's body twitched and his expensive clothes were stained with blood.
"You...can't kill me, I am in charge of wealth..."
Pfft. Puff, puff...
The stabbing sound drowned out the middle-aged man's weak voice.
"So what if you are in charge of finance? There are so many people in the kingdom, and you are not the best at finance."
The second princess walked out of the darkness holding a black folding fan. She opened the small folding fan and covered her mouth and nose.
"Anyone who opposes Mathil will die. Who allows him to get the support of so many people?"
The second princess snorted coldly. Although she was unwilling to accept it, she understood the situation clearly, so she survived.
Similar things are happening in many places in the capital.
In the palace meeting hall, the third prince stepped up the stone stairs step by step, and he was getting closer and closer to the throne.
"It seems that among all my descendants, you are more similar to me."
The old king looked at the third prince with a smile. The third prince paused in his steps. He felt that something was wrong with the old lion, very wrong.
"It took you five years to infiltrate the Guards. It was too slow. It only took me two years."
"Ha~?"
Hearing the old king's words, the domineering third prince was obviously confused.
"Your eldest brother is very good, but he is indeed a bit narrow-minded. Just kill him. As for your second sister, she may be your helper, but don't forget that she is not the kind of person who is willing to admit defeat. And Your seventh brother, being granted the title of Wings of the Kingdom is seeking death, and I have actually wanted to get rid of him for a long time."
The old king spoke calmly, but the third prince couldn't calm down. He subconsciously took a step back. At this moment, he felt firsthand how terrifying the old king was. If he was fighting for power with the old lion, how could he possibly die? I don’t even know, I will definitely be played to the point of doubting my life.
"I am very pleased that you did not touch the troops on the front line. As for the deal you reached with the Iron Hand, I am not very interested, but don't forget that once he is unhappy, your head may fall on the ground."
The old king waved his hand and motioned for the third prince to continue forward, but the third prince stood still.
The third prince, who was originally domineering and arrogant, was weakened by the old king with just a few words. Maybe he will leave a certain degree of shadow in the future.
"Iron Hand, I can see through them, but I can't see through you. Although I don't know what your purpose is, as long as it's not kingship, that's fine.
No matter what your purpose is, you first helped me get rid of unstable factors, and then solved the undead assassination incident. During the struggle for power, you helped me do many things, some honorable and some disgraceful. Since you think of Under the Throne, Then go ahead, it's a place of no return. "
The old king looked at Joe Valentine, and Joe Valentine shrank his neck subconsciously. The old king now looked like an old lion, with an evil beast standing beside him. God knows what kind of relationship this old lion had with him. Whether that evil beast had made any deal, he, Joe Valentine, was at best a watchdog. Even if it was a dying lion, he would not dare to provoke it.
"Bring me a pen."
When the old king opened his mouth, Joe Valentine hesitated for a moment and then took a pen and paper from the side hall.
The old king wrote a few lines of text on a piece of parchment. The old king holding the parchment looked at Su Xiao.
"Iron Hand, are you sure you want to go under the throne?"
"certainly."
Su Xiao stretched out her hand to the old king. The old king nodded and handed the parchment in his hand to Su Xiao.
As soon as Su Xiao took the parchment, she grabbed the old king's neck with her other hand.
"Iron Hand, what are you doing!"
Seeing Su Xiao grabbing the old king's neck, the third prince roared and turned pale with shock.
Su Xiao and the old king looked at the third prince at the same time, which made the third prince's cheek twitch. The third prince already understood that compared to other contenders for royal power, these two people were much scarier. One seemed to see through everything, and the other There is no one who dares not kill.
"It seems your heir is not ruthless enough."
"The throne will make him more ruthless and sharper in his attacks. Killing is what you are best at."
"no problem."
Click!
Su Xiao pinched the old king's neck under the stunned expression of the third prince. It wasn't that the third prince didn't want to kill the old king, but he didn't dare to kill him. This old lion was too scary.
