Chapter 11: The struggle for rights is given to me who stayed up late in the Silver League)
"Zhabo, have you been lying to me all this time?"
The beautiful woman's eyes widened. When she heard what the beautiful woman said, the high priest Zabo was stunned.
"Iron Hand, I can give you anything you want, including money and women."
High Priest Zabo threw the package behind his back towards Su Xiao. With a bang, gems and gold coins were scattered on the ground.
Click, click...
Su Xiao stepped on gems and gold coins. He really needed gold coins now, but what he needed were legal gold coins, kingdom gold coins that could circulate freely without hiding their heads and tails.
"I have a daughter. Her name is Elena. She is already 13 years old. If you let me go, I will give her to you."
High Priest Zabo's will to survive is very tenacious, so tenacious that he loses all limits.
"Hahaha, what on earth am I talking about? God, are you punishing me? Punishing me for the things I have done that are worse than a pig or a dog."
High Priest Zabo suddenly laughed, and his spirit collapsed.
Suddenly, veins popped out on the face of High Priest Zabo.
"Bay Herbert, you will be punished!!"
High Priest Zabo roared the king's name, drew a long dagger from his waist, and embraced his wife.
With a swipe, the dagger penetrated the beautiful woman's chest and also penetrated the body of the high priest Zabo. This dagger was highly poisonous.
"Angia, forgive me."
The high priest whispered his wife's name.
"Um,"
The beautiful woman nestled in the arms of the high priest.
"Even if I said such ugly things, you still forgive me. You are the gift God gave me."
The high priest's face gradually turned blue, and the poison had already taken hold.
"How could that be? You're just too scared. We don't have a daughter at all."
The beautiful woman's body gradually became limp.
"Bay Herbert, and you, Iron Hand, wait! I look forward to your misery in hell. The angry undead gate will eat you alive. What is hidden under the throne..."
Puff, puff, puff...
The sound of slashing drowned out the roar of the high priest. It was the ten guards who waved their swords and chopped the high priest and his wife into pieces.
"Um?"
Su Xiao's eyes narrowed. According to normal procedures, the Imperial Guard cannot take action against officials, otherwise it will be very troublesome, even with the old king's secret order. This is a matter of political stance.
But these ten guards took action. Why were the direct guards of the royal family that were supposed to be sent temporarily replaced by killing machine guards? This is a question worth pondering, and what did the high priest want to say in his last words?
,What's hidden 'under the throne'? A curse? A weapon?
"Under the throne" itself is not very easy to understand. It can be understood as royal power, the royal palace, or even someone under the king.
After the ten imperial guards cut the bodies of the high priest and his wife into pieces, they quickly came around Su Xiao and all knelt down on one knee. Just now, they had exceeded their authority. Su Xiao could kill them on the spot now.
"The high priest has been executed by my own hands."
Su Xiao opened his mouth. The ten Imperial Guards just lowered their heads. Can the Iron Hand really kill people without scruple? No, this is a sensitive position. If used well, everyone in the capital will be afraid. Is it necessary?
Good things can lead to fatal disasters. The previous Iron Hand was in power for only 12 days, but the current Iron Hand has been in power for a full two years.
After hearing Su Xiao's words, the surrounding guards stood up and stood behind him again.
Three targets have been eliminated, and only the chief judge Hervé Anthony who lives in the south of the royal capital remains.
The royal capital covers a large area, and it took Su Xiao half an hour to arrive at Chief Judge Hervey's residence.
This is not a wealthy area, so the surrounding houses are dark, and you can only vaguely hear the croaking of frogs on the edge of the capital, where there is a moat.
The cool night breeze blew by, diluting the smell of blood on Su Xiao's body.
Su Xiao was squatting on a private house, and he felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere around him.
"Bubu, this is the portrait of Hervé Anthony. Identify it. You will be responsible for finding where he is later. If something goes wrong, find a way to control him."
Su Xiao took out a portrait, and the dog's face leaned forward, almost sticking to the portrait. After more than ten seconds, it looked at Su Xiao, its big watery eyes seemed to say: "Master, you
Is it the devil? Is that the giant panda in this portrait?"
No wonder Bubo Wang is like this. This is a portrait drawn with a feather pen. It is only in black and white, and the level of abstraction is completely imaginable.
"Ahem, try to identify it."
Su Xiao spoke in a low voice, Bubu Wang sighed and began to stare at the portrait.
After a few minutes, Bubuwang nodded, indicating that the identification was almost complete.
"Sure?"
"Woof~"
BuBoWang's voice was very low, and he seemed as steady as an old dog, but in fact he was full of doubts. Who is this? Where is he? Where to find him?
"Eminem, get ready."
Su Xiao stared at an ancient courtyard in front of her. This was Chief Judge Hervey's house. Although the area was not small, it looked a bit shabby. If she didn't know the person of the chief judge, Su Xiao would have thought that the other person was...
An honest official.
Of course, this purge cannot be carried out by assassination, but rather by a large-scale killing to frighten the officials in the capital who are ready to take action because the struggle for power is about to begin.
"Leave no one behind."
boom!
Eminem rushed out like a tank and directly smashed the outer wall of the chief justice's courtyard.
"Enemy attack!!"
As soon as the roar sounded, a roar came from the dark courtyard, noisy footsteps came, and streaks of fire appeared.
In less than ten seconds, the courtyard was illuminated by dozens of torches, and "soldiers" holding round shields rushed out from the castle in the center of the courtyard.
The chief judge was not as simple as he seemed. He knew what he had done, so of course he was wary of the old king, so he chose a residence far away from the palace and secretly hired dozens of mercenaries.
In fact, cultivating your own private army is the most ideal approach, but Chief Judge Hervey is not stupid. He knows that the entire capital is under the eyes of the old king, so he chooses a more secretive method, which is to spend a lot of money to hire
mercenaries, and use their power and position to send these mercenaries into the royal capital. This is the role of connections.
In fact, the old king saw all these little tricks made by Chief Judge Hervey, but the old king did not touch Chief Judge Hervey before because he could suppress this minister.
Just because the old king was able to suppress it does not mean that the new king can suppress it. Even so, the old king gave Chief Judge Hervey a chance to show his loyalty. After all, Hervey devoted his life to the kingdom. It is a pity that
, Elway did not seize this opportunity.
Ten Imperial Guards faced the mercenaries. These mercenaries were not idiots. They had experienced hundreds of battles and had no problem blocking the Imperial Guards in a short period of time.
Su Xiao walked through the crowd, his sword flashed, and two heads flew up. A moment later, he appeared in the center of the courtyard, in front of the slightly old castle.
boom.
Wood chips flew everywhere, and Su Xiao kicked the main entrance of the castle to pieces. The entrance was a very wide staircase. Above the stairs stood a bald man with a lizard tattooed on his bald head.
"I heard that you are the strongest warrior in the capital? I am very curious as to how strong the strongest warrior among the idiots in the capital will be. The real strong men are all on the front lines, and only the idiots will stay in the capital to enjoy themselves."
The bald man moves his muscles. His pupils are green, but he is not an undead. There is only one possibility. He is a holy warrior who has determined the kingdom. Money can make people go around, let alone a holy warrior?
Even the old king was jealous of Chief Justice Hervey's property.
The struggle for power is so cruel. Those who die tonight are all losers in this struggle for power. In fact, the struggle for power has already begun tonight.
