Logically speaking, both of them are the kings of Jingyang and their status is equal. Even if Zhao Xiaole takes the main seat, it makes sense.
However, King Pingxi is the master after all.
Zhao Xiaole has always been arrogant and is not suitable to compete with his master for position.
Hearing this, Zhao Xiaole slowly took off his mask, looked at him and said, "Your Majesty's ears and eyes are very sensitive. How did you know my identity?"
After showing his original appearance, although he looks handsome.
But King Pingxi couldn't help but shrink his eyes when he saw it. This face was too familiar to him.
In the beginning, it was the person in front of him who made him suffer great shame and humiliation.
Now, compared with the childishness before, this face is not only more mature, but the killing intention of the battlefield is also deeply engraved on his face.
After not seeing him for just over a year, this face looked even more terrifying.
It also made King Pingxi more afraid.
He forced a smile and said: "I received the letter from King Liang before, so I knew that you would definitely come to Yun Mansion."
"Therefore, I often sent people to inquire, and I accidentally learned about this matter."
King Pingxi refused to sit down at the main seat, and Zhao Xiaole didn't bother to talk to him, so he took off his cloak and sat on it.
"The king's letter is very clear, asking you to form an alliance with the Saint of the Demon Cult. Why has the matter been delayed until today?" Zhao Xiaole asked.
King Pingxi smiled bitterly and said: "The devil's methods of teaching demons are weird and cunning. He actually tricked me into writing a letter of rebellion."
"If you weren't worried..."
At this point, he suddenly raised his head and looked at the Saint, and realized that the Saint was also a member of the Demon Cult, and had to shut up in embarrassment.
However, Zhao Xiaole looked strange.
After a brief conversation with King Ping Xi, he had learned a lot of information.
For example, King Pingxi did not know that the saint was the empress, nor did he know that he had instigated people to frame King Pingxi and wrote those rebellious letters.
But King Pingxi knew his whereabouts.
Could it be said that he really does not have such a deep connection with the main war faction?
After some brief thought.
Zhao Xiaole understood instantly.
His whereabouts were still leaked to King Pingxi by the Warring Faction, but the Warring Faction never mentioned anything about the Saint.
It's because the Saint originally wanted to frame the other party without anyone noticing, but the main war faction took the opportunity to infiltrate Prince Pingxi's palace.
It was not until Shifang Walker intervened that the forces of the main war faction were eliminated from the palace.
The Warring Faction did not reveal the identity of the Saint, probably to comply with religious rules, but Zhao Xiaole believed that this matter was also inseparable from the Warring Faction.
Once it arouses King Pingxi's dislike of the Demon Cult, it will make the battle for the Holy Girl more difficult out of thin air.
Emperor Jingyang and King Pingxi would never know that the woman they slept with was Ruhua.
No one will expose this matter until death.
If not, Emperor Jingyang and King Heping Xi would definitely discuss how to exterminate this demonic sect as soon as possible?
How can we discuss the alliance?
The main war faction must have had the same concerns and deceived King Pingxi about many things.
The truth is often too cruel.
It's a good thing that he doesn't know, and Zhao Xiaole will not cause trouble to himself and take the initiative to make it clear.
At the same time, Zhao Xiaole figured out King Pingxi's thoughts.
He had been sitting on both sides of the wall, waiting and watching. He even wanted to wait until Zhao Xiaole and the Demon Sect, as well as the Yan and Jin countries, would lose in the fight.
He is still safe as his own prince.
Sneering in his heart but not showing it on his face, Zhao Xiaole said: "In that case, let's finalize the alliance as soon as possible!"
"I can guarantee that as long as you form an alliance, the Demon Cult will not cause harm to Yun Mansion in the future."
Upon hearing this, King Pingxi once again said in embarrassment: "I can't help myself. You know, Elder Liao and others have united the Yan and Jin countries and frequently put pressure on me. If this matter is made public, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction between the two countries!
"
Zhao Xiaole sneered, "What? Yan and Jin can be dissatisfied, but you can turn a deaf ear to Jingyang's dissatisfaction?"
"I don't dare. I am also considering this for the sake of the country, so I would like to ask the King of Liang to take a closer look!" King Pingxi wiped his cold sweat.
Zhao Xiaole snorted and ignored him.
He can continue to put pressure on King Pingxi, but once King Pingxi is forced to the Yan and Jin countries,
In the end, the gain outweighs the loss.
Now is not the time to fall out directly.
The saint spoke at this time, "So, what do we need to do so that the prince can be willing to publicly announce this matter?"
King Pingxi smiled and said: "This matter is simple. As long as the saint gets the power in the church, Elder Liao will not dare to cause trouble again."
If you want to gain more power in the teaching, you need King Pingxi to make an alliance with them. If they form an alliance, you need to gain power in the teaching first.
This is a dead end.
The Saint sneered, "Are you entertaining me, Your Majesty?"
King Pingxi was very anxious after hearing this, but no matter how he explained it, the saint would not listen. Finally, Zhao Xiaole said:
"If you don't want to, that's fine. However, I will no longer care about the favors that the Travelers of the Ten Directions sold to me."
"When the time comes, when you and I meet on the battlefield, no matter who dies under the sword of the other, there should be no complaints."
"Let's go!"
Zhao Xiaole stood up and left with the saint.
Since the other party refuses to form an alliance, why is there any need to attend this banquet?
How could King Pingxi still stand? He hurriedly stepped forward to hold Zhao Xiaole and said, "I have surrendered to you. Is it not enough to obey?"
Looking at him, he was so anxious that he almost cried.
Zhao Xiaole found it funny, "Okay, since you are willing to agree to this, I can ensure that your status will not be affected in the future."
"The imperial court will not pursue the matter in Chuzhou any longer."
King Pingxi nodded reluctantly.
He originally wanted to sit back and watch the fight, but ended up becoming a pawn in the game between the two sides. His weakness was the fundamental reason why he lost his right to speak.
The dinner is about to start.
Zhao Xiaole put on his mask again and moved to the main hall with the saint. Outside, Old Man Jin and Sun Cheng had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing them come out, Sun Chengcheng led them to the main hall and sat down.
I saw clouds and fog surrounding the main hall. When the first day of the new year arrived, Zhao Xiaole thought he was in a fairy palace.
No wonder this place has the reputation of Yunfu.
It is indeed a good place to go!
Old Man Jin was led to the door and sat down, while Zhao Xiaole and the Saint took their seats at the top.
After Sun Cheng left, the saint asked in a low voice: "Are you sure that King Pingxi will announce this in public?"
Zhao Xiaole sneered and said: "This old and cunning thing will definitely not do this obediently. Later, he will definitely instigate others to attack us. If this king's prediction is correct, he has also said the same thing to the main war faction.
"
The saint was furious when she heard this, "Then why didn't you expose him just now?"
"Is exposure useful?" Zhao Xiaole looked at the guests in the hall, all looking at them with murderous intent. He continued, "If you want to break the knot, there is another way, which is to strike first and get rid of Elder Liao!"
