Death fell into silence in the kingdom's meeting hall. The third prince stood on the stone stairs below the throne, looking a little ugly.
Joe Valentine stared blankly at the old king's body, his lips opening and closing. Although he took refuge in the third prince, he never thought of killing the old king.
"Iron Hand, we succeeded."
The third prince suddenly spoke, his face softened a lot, and he even smiled.
"Well, it worked."
Su Xiao let go of the old king's neck and let the old lion lean on the throne. The two seemed to have fallen out, but this was not the case. The old king made sure of one thing before he died, that is, Su Xiao would not be like Rowan Harvey.
That's how you betray the kingdom.
The old king risked his life to find out that Su Xiao would not betray the kingdom. This was an important message he left for the third prince. The third prince understood it, so he did not call in a large number of imperial guards to surround Su Xiao.
"I was tricked by you in the end."
Su Xiao glanced at the old king's body. There was no fear on the old king's face before death, but he was smiling.
This old lion actually couldn't hold on anymore 7 days ago. He suffered from severe asthma, so he kept coughing. The old lion knew that he was not going to die soon, but before choosing a new king, he knew that he could not die.
Can't die.
The old lion first took the secret medicine, and then injected the blood of the Necromancer into his body. The Necromancer was not transformed from the Necrons, but from a powerful holy warrior.
The blood of the Undead Lord successfully extended the life of the old king, but he also had to endure pain that ordinary people could not imagine. During these few days, the old lion could not sleep at all. He was experiencing maddening pain every moment.
, this is very scary. If the old king is in good health, how wise will he be?
The old lion managed to hold on until the new king appeared. When the third prince walked into the kingdom's meeting hall, the old lion's expression became very relaxed, because he knew that he could finally be freed.
In the end, the old king made a deal with Su Xiao, a deal that only the two of them knew, that is, the old king provided a way to enter the throne, and Su Xiao needed to help him relieve his pain and not betray the kingdom, or in other words,
Do not join the forces of the Necrons.
The result was obvious, Su Xiao agreed to the deal, so the old king died on the throne with a smile on his face.
Today, the old king told the third prince one thing through his actions, that is, 'Your uncle will always be your uncle, and you are still too young.'
The third prince is indeed not as scary as the old lion, but he is a smart man, so he did not fall out with Su Xiao.
It's not that the third prince is afraid of Su Xiao, but that he needs the identity of Su Xiaotie's hand to deter those powerful officials.
When the third prince takes full control of the king's power, he will definitely fall out with Su Xiao. It is not a simple matter to take full control of the king's power. It will take at least half a month or even one or two months.
During this period, as long as Su Xiao did not do anything to upset the third prince, the two parties would maintain a tacit understanding of not interfering with each other. This was the result Su Xiao wanted, although it was not the most ideal result.
Originally, Su Xiao wanted to support a capable puppet (who could not resist in a short period of time), but unfortunately there were too few such princes and princesses, and even if there were, it would be impossible to convince the public.
The princes and princesses received 'higher education' from childhood, and they were proficient in the art of emperors. The idiots were eliminated long ago, and those who remained were very capable.
As for supporting a complete puppet, Su Xiao has never thought about it that way. Even if he supports a puppet, the other party must be capable. The threat of the Necrons is right in front of him. If the Necrons break through the front line, the joke will be big.
After that, Su Xiao no longer had to think about completing the mission, but how to survive under the siege of the undead army.
After a period of observation, Su Xiao finally chose the third prince. This guy has a large number of troops in his hands, so he knows the army very well. If such a prince becomes the new king, even if the kingdom's economic system collapses, the Necrons will fight in a short time.
Don't come.
If the army commanders on the front line learn that the third prince has become the new king, they will be as excited as chicken blood. The third prince will definitely focus on promoting them. Heslett, the commander of the kingdom's army, may even become the third prince's right-hand man.
Even though he was a minister of the old king and a minister of the previous dynasty, he stood up very early and always supported the third prince. Unless the third prince was kicked in the head by a donkey, he would definitely reuse Hexlet. If he did not reuse Hexlet
If it is special, it will chill the hearts of many people.
The current situation is obviously beneficial to Su Xiao. He and the third prince are restraining each other. The third prince needs him to intimidate those powerful officials, while Su Xiao needs the third prince to maintain the stability of the kingdom. Only in a stable environment can he complete the concealment more easily.
Side missions.
As for the assessment task for promotion to the adventure group, Su Xiao has roughly guessed how to activate this task. If so, he will leave the royal capital after completing the hidden side task and go straight to the frontline battlefield.
The third prince came to the throne. In fact, he had no relationship with the old king. He occasionally saw the old king when he was young and ignorant. When he was a teenager, he got a fief on the border. From then on, he had a constant feud with the Necrons.
, it can be said that the third prince grew up in a military camp, which is why he is so iron-blooded and ruthless.
"Your Majesty, how should the old king's funeral be arranged?"
Joe Valentine spoke in a low voice, and he changed his words very quickly. The third prince directly became his majesty, and the old lion became the former old king.
"Valentin, please give me your opinion."
The third prince looked at Joe Valentine with a smile on his face, his smile already slightly similar to that of the old king.
"this……"
Joe Valentine changed his previous respectful attitude and became enthusiastic and familiar. In fact, he was not too familiar with the third prince.
"In my personal opinion, it would be better not to hold the old king's funeral."
"Oh? What should I say?"
The third prince looked at Joe Valentine with interest.
"Your Majesty, please think that only the three of us know about the old king's death."
"Woof!"
BooBoo Wang, who had been watching the fun nearby, barked, and Joe Valentine was startled. BooBoo Wang stared at him, which meant: "Isn't this dog a human? I am a dog."
"cough."
Joe Valentine coughed slightly in embarrassment. Of course he recognized Bubo Wang, who was inseparable from Su Xiao, but he didn't know when Bubo Wang entered the meeting hall.
When he saw BuBoWang, the third prince's eyes jumped. There were so many guards guarding the outside of the palace, and he couldn't figure out how the dog got in.
Bubo Wang looked around at the situation in the meeting hall. After looking around, Bubo Wang was very disappointed, which meant: "We agreed to have a banquet."
When Bu Boo Wang entered the meeting hall, he was not just looking for something to eat, but to warn the third prince that even with the protection of a large number of guards, Su Xiao could still take his life. Maybe one day when the third prince was sleeping, Bu Boo Wang would
It will sneak up next to him and bite his throat out.
"I will go under the throne in the near future and lend you my sister."
Su Xiao walked out of the meeting hall.
"My sister?"
Before the third prince could ask which sister she was, Su Xiao had already left the meeting hall with Bubu Wang.
