Reincarnation Paradise

Chapter 1833 Human Heart

The negotiation went much smoother than expected. Although Princess Sayeto had always suspected that Su Xiao had some conspiracy, with the throne being there, she would certainly not miss this God-given opportunity.

When Sayato walked out of the Imperial Parliament Hall, she couldn't help but look back at this magnificent building. Since the death of the Black King, this has been the highest authority of the empire, and all major orders are conveyed from here.

If everything goes well in the future, the Imperial Parliament will cease to exist. Not only the Imperial Parliament, but also the Senate, Sayato is preparing to gradually abolish it.

She is even planning to abolish the hereditary system of royal power, take power away from the dukes and ministers, and change the hereditary system to an electoral system.

Regarding the hereditary system, Sayato is both a beneficiary and a victim. The empire has not had a new king for more than ten years because of the hereditary system.

The electoral system is different. When the previous king falls, the people and officials will immediately elect the next king. Sayato is even preparing to confer official positions such as 'Member of Parliament' to make the electoral system fairer.

It can be said that Princess Sayeto is full of ambitions, so she hates Su Xiao, Duke Yinyu, Bloomer and others. She once said in her heart: 'Just leave it to me, I will make the empire better. More complete' this type of thinking.

It was precisely for this reason that Shayato was a little irritable when facing Su Xiao and others.

However, the Black King initially believed that he could manage the empire very well, but for some unknown reason, he chose the hereditary system instead of the more effective electoral system, and sat on the throne for more than three hundred years.

Not to mention Sayato, who is full of ambition and has already mobilized his subordinates to prepare to become the new king. Su Xiao is also preparing.

"Is it okay?"

The old magic stick who was wandering on the street with Su Xiao, holding a metal book in his hand, spoke.

"It's basically no problem. Sayato has already agreed. Wu Fu and the Chancellor of Finance can't hold it back. Fortunately, they don't dare to jump out in a short time."

Su Xiao squatted in front of a stall, holding a palm-sized clay sculpture to observe. The workmanship of this thing was good, and there was a trace amount of eternal power inside, somewhat similar to an amulet. This gave him inspiration, whether he could use alchemy to Create disposable defensive equipment or props.

"They openly opposed you? Did they join Sayato's side?"

There was nothing unusual about the old magician's expression. It looked like he had expected such a thing for a long time.

"Not in the short term, but it will happen sooner or later."

When Su Xiao supported Sayeto to become the new king, he had already thought of the reaction of Wu Fu and the Minister of Finance. This is actually normal.

Wu Fu and the Chancellor of Finance are willing to support Su Xiao, just because they want to follow the dragon and the phoenix. Once Su Xiao becomes the new king, they will also become big figures like the founding fathers of the country.

But Su Xiao gave up on becoming the new king, which inevitably gave Wu Fu and the Chancellor of Finance some ideas. To put it mildly, they were now Su Xiao's eagle dogs, and they had both been hostile to Sayato.

Once Sayato becomes the new king, it will mean that Su Xiao loses power. Once Sayato settles the accounts, it will be enough for Wufu and the Minister of Finance to go around.

This is the human heart. In the struggle for power, no one will always be loyal to anyone. You know, Wolfe was once Bloomer's subordinate, and the finance minister once swore loyalty to the little duke.

"Explain to them the price of becoming the new king, and they might..."

Before the old magic stick finished speaking, Su Xiao, who had her back turned to him, waved her hand.

"The human heart is more complicated than you think, aren't you right, Ken Lahan?"

"maybe……"

The old magic stick's eyes were a little complicated, and his mouth opened and closed, as if he wanted to say something to Lidya Su, but after a moment, he chose to remain silent.

"Kukulin Baiye, I will always stand by your side."

The old magic stick tapped his chest with one hand, showing the same smile as when he first met Su Xiao.

"oh."

Su Xiao threw a few black coins on the stall, stood up and walked towards the end of the street. From the beginning to the end, he did not look at the old magic stick.

"Feel sorry."

The old magic stick looked at Su Xiao's back and spoke in a low voice, and continued in a voice that Su Xiao could not hear: "If you want to go there, I will go with you until I die, Cukulin."

At seven o'clock the next day, Luolanhua Manor.

Dozens of Holy City Guards were guarding both sides of the manor's main entrance. They were wearing gold and black armor, and the standard swords at their waists were inlaid with rubies. Although they stood neatly, their brows showed arrogance.

Of course, these escorts cannot be used for war, but as an honor guard, they are the best choice. Each one is young and handsome, and has some background.

Roland Flower Manor is the real estate of Princess Sayato. She does not usually live here, but tonight, it is open to all imperial officials and wealthy businessmen. As long as they are respectable people, they must be there tonight, unless they do not want to hang out in the Holy City.

Standing outside the main entrance of the manor were several officials under Sayeto. They all put down their arrogance tonight. No matter how small the official position was, they would warmly welcome them, making those small officials feel flattered.

A gold-plated carriage stopped, the carriage opened, and several old servants got out first, and then a little boy of eight or nine years old walked out of the carriage.

"Your Excellency, you are here."

A fat official with a shiny face stepped forward quickly. He was the number four person under Shayeto, named Evan. During a certain game between the two sides, he was almost caught by Wolfe and taken to the military camp outside the city. There, even if Evan was an important official of the empire, he would not survive for two hours. It was Shayato who did not hesitate to come forward in person, go to Youyu Manor to meet Su Xiao, and save him in a way that was almost flesh-cutting.

"Are you Evan?"

The little Duke was chewing something as he spoke. The Chancellor of the Exchequer was not with him today.

The Chancellor of Finance is already from the other side. Although the Chancellor of Finance is still loyal to the young Duke, this is a matter of position.

"Yes, Your Highness, please."

With an apologetic smile on his face, Evan personally introduced the little Duke into the manor.

At this time, a temporary venue had been set up in the courtyard of the manor. Of course, as the young duke, he was quickly led to the banquet hall in the castle.

The guests arrived one after another, and most of them could only attend the dinner in the courtyard. They even couldn't see the owner of the manor, Sayato, but they showed off their attitude when they came.

In the castle's banquet hall, most of the imperial officials were whispering to each other at the banquet table. The dance floor in the center belonged to young people, not old men like them.

As for the owner of the castle, Sayato, she was wearing a formal suit and standing inside the banquet hall like a star in the moonlight. The high-ranking officials of the empire were all complimenting her.

But from the beginning to the end, Sayato was a little absent-minded, because the most important guests had not arrived, and the seats next to the first place were empty.

"Is this...a bit unwilling?"

Sayeto smiled. She no longer doubted that Su Xiao would give up the royal power. With today's dinner, it was inevitable that she would become the new king.

In a dark study room in Youyu Manor.

Behind the antique desk, Su Xiao was flipping through a half-weathered notebook, while Bubo Wang was lying on the desk. Eminem was sitting in the corner not far away. Because the room was dark, he could only see the outline of it. contour.

The moonlight shone through the window, and the old magic stick stood in front of the window. Sayato's dinner invitation was ignored by him.

Boom, boom, boom...

There was a knock on the door, and Wu Fu opened the door and walked into the study, smelling heavily of alcohol.

"You should be there for Sayato's dinner party."

Su Xiao didn't look at Wu Fu, her attention was focused on the broken notes in her hand.

"I, Wulf, am a rough man. I am not used to attending egg dinners. When I was so poor that I couldn't even pay my pension, that woman didn't even look at me."

Wearing full body armor and somewhat angry, Wolves sat in the corner with a clang, holding a bottle of strong liquor in his hand, and began to drink.

After about a few minutes, the door was pushed open again, and the Minister of Finance, carrying a few tightly tied oil paper bags and wearing formal attire, walked into the room. Without saying anything else, he just found a chair and sat down. He threw the oil paper bag in his hand to Su Xiao and then to Wu Fu.

"This is the venison from my hometown. Please try it, sir."

Regardless of his demeanor, the Chancellor picked up a large piece of venison and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing it.

"Coming to my place tonight is not a good choice."

Su Xiao also picked up a piece of venison and put it in his mouth to taste it carefully. Although the meat was rough in fiber, it had a strange aroma that made people unable to resist picking up another piece and chewing it in their mouth.

"Wine is delicious, but drinking too much will kill you quickly."

Wu Fu grinned and said nothing else. Obviously, both he and the Chancellor of Finance chose to side with Su Xiao.

"Zos, this little brat has strong wings. It is said that Sayato introduced the political officer's daughter to him. That boy can be regarded as coming of age now."

Wu Fu poured a few sips of wine into his mouth, and his eyes became extremely ferocious.

"Young people are easily tempted, but Sayato promised to give me the position of left imperial guard. I am really willing to give it up."

The Chancellor smiled wryly and shook his head.

"Then the woman promised you the right to stay? What a coincidence, I am the commander-in-chief of the imperial army here. He is very majestic and commands all the frontier armies of the empire."

Wolfe looked at the chancellor with a mean look on his face, and the old gentleman threw a deer bone at Wolfe.

What Shayeto did was actually not considered despicable. In other words, she felt uneasy if she did not take away military power and finance from Su Xiao.

Unfortunately, the finance minister ignored her, and Wufu pretended to be deaf and dumb. After accepting Sayato's benefits, she was sent directly to Youyu Manor.
