Chapter 1359 Fighting openly and secretly, power struggle
"snort......"
Seeing Hu Kui being stopped by Xue Yun, he did not make a big mistake according to his plan.
Lin Zerong snorted in dismay, turned his head and began to drink by himself, ignoring the two people in front of him.
"Everyone, please sit down for me!"
Above the high position.
Xuanyuan Zhong slapped the armrest of the seat fiercely, and he could tell at a glance that this was done intentionally by Lin Zerong, who wanted to anger the young and irritable Lord of Longdu City.
"I believe in the people of Longdu..."
Xuanyuan Zhong took a long breath and said categorically: "There is no doubt about their loyalty to Daxia. There is no need to judge a gentleman with a villain's heart."
As soon as these words came out.
No matter how much Lin Zerong complained, he couldn't continue to complain.
after all.
Now that the most senior regent in the royal family has said this, it would not make much sense to continue to entangle him.
"Put away the armed freaks..."
With a little force, Hu Kui, who was still angry, was pushed back to his seat.
Xue Yun leaned close to his ear and whispered: "This is always an important part of the imperial city. If you want to deal with this scumbag named Lin, there will be many opportunities in the future. There is no need to rush now."
Secretly gritting his teeth.
After gradually calming down, Hu Kui also realized the seriousness of the problem.
He quickly waved his hand.
On the spot, he dispersed the grinning golden ape in mid-air, and slowly sat back down with the guards behind him.
"Back to business!"
Not wanting to cause more trouble, Xuanyuan Zhong quickly changed the subject.
"Concerning the capture of His Majesty, I have sent a group of dead soldiers to collect relevant information from the people. The other party is a world-famous rock singer. Now he is desperate and dares to openly kidnap my Majesty, the Emperor of Great Xia. He must have a plan.
"
"As the saying goes, those who do evil will surely die..."
Narrowed his eyes.
Raising his hand to support his chin, Xuanyuan Zhong continued in a deep voice.
"I have reason to believe that this group of arrogant people may take action in the near future. At that time, we will only need to see them exposed."
"All in all, the king is the most important thing and the country is the most important thing..."
He pondered for a moment.
Xuanyuan Zhong said with deep eyes: "Even if these people want to use His Majesty's life as a bargaining chip and make excessive demands, I will never compromise!"
Faced with the danger of his ancestor's foundation, Xuanyuan Zhong had to make the worst plan.
When the time comes, it will be nothing more than establishing the young prince Xuanyuan Hong as the new emperor.
As Xuanyuan Sword Spirit said, as long as it is the bloodline of the Xuanyuan family, it actually doesn't matter who will sit on the throne.
He does not mean that.
Playing with the glass wine cup on the table, Lin Zerong frowned and suddenly felt something bad.
He instinctively believed that Xuanyuan Zhong deliberately wanted to take the opportunity to replace Xuanyuan Longcheng's position and sit on the throne of the supreme emperor of the Great Xia Empire.
Originally it was understandable to do so.
But the problem is that Xuanyuan Zhong's attitude towards Xue Yun and his party is obviously completely different from Xuanyuan Longcheng's.
Once he is allowed to rise to power, if the Lin family wants to bring down this big tree like Xue Yun, it will be as difficult as climbing to the sky.
It's a shame, a huge humiliation, and irreconcilable.
The feud between his two sons cannot be left alone, especially if Xue Yun's rise to power is likely to cause the Lin family to lose power, which is a result that Lin Zerong cannot accept.
therefore.
Even if his body and soul were shattered to pieces, Lin Zerong would never allow such a thing to happen.
"These matters can be put aside for the time being, and besides, no one person can have the final say."
He raised his eyebrows and looked at everyone.
Lin Zerong said eloquently: "There are also hundreds of civil and military officials from the Manchu Dynasty in the imperial city. When necessary, the Coordinating Office also has certain decision-making power."
Everyone knows.
As the center of Daxia, the Coordination Office has always been controlled by Lin Zerong.
These words seemed to be a warning to everyone, not to think of the Lin family doing anything outrageous behind his back.
"its not right."
He had already sat next to Hu Kui.
Xue Yun played with the spoon on the table and said meaningfully: "The rule of our Daxia is that the imperial power is always supreme. After all, the regent's surname is Xuanyuan. Isn't his words not as good as a small coordinating office?
!”
With just one sentence, Lin Zerong was immediately angry and almost vomited blood.
No matter how courageous he was, he would not dare to deny the authority of the Daxia royal family on the spot.
"Yes, the supremacy of imperial power is the foundation of my Daxia!"
He nodded silently.
Already hating Xue Yun to his core, Lin Zerong suppressed the anger in his chest and said coldly: "However, His Majesty is not sitting in the palace now. According to the usual practice, all major and minor matters in the court should be discussed by the Coordination Office and the officials together, and only
Only in this way can we truly ensure peace in the world."
"I see......"
He grinned, deliberately pretending to be enlightened.
Raising his hand to wrap around Hu Kui's shoulders, Xue Yun immediately shook his head and said.
"Fortunately, Mr. Lin explained the situation, otherwise I would have really thought that you were trying to use your power to suppress others on behalf of the Lin family, and then you would come up with a trick to usurp the throne!"
"Xue Yun——!"
Unable to bear it, he started shooting.
Lin Zerong's face was full of gloom and he said: "You are obviously spitting blood!"
Tit for tat, hidden murderous intent.
Without the checks and balances of imperial power, the shortcomings caused by the power vacuum are undoubtedly revealed.
Originally, everyone came here to discuss matters related to their mission to the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets.
Unexpectedly, because of the capture of Xuanyuan Longcheng, a secret war over the distribution of power began uncontrollably.
Although Xue Yun didn't want to be involved at all, being in the Imperial City and Tiger Capital, it was inevitable that he would be involved in a series of relationships.
"Stop arguing!"
Xuanyuan Zhong, who was sitting in a high position, looked decadent and spoke out again to stop the confrontation between the two sides.
The old man rubbed his forehead, raised his hand slightly, and said mentally and physically exhausted: "Don't worry, Mr. Lin, I am old, and I have no intention of coveting the throne of Daxia. Even if I have to appoint a new king as a last resort, I should do it by him."
The prince will succeed..."
As soon as these words came out.
Lin Zerong suddenly felt relieved. The prince of the imperial city, Xuanyuan Hong, was only a ten-year-old child. It should be easy to control him.
"I would like to toast you all..."
Pick up the wine cup in front of you.
Xuanyuan Zhong had a wry smile on his face and couldn't help but sigh: "This is an extraordinary period. You are all the pillars of Daxia. I hope that you can temporarily put aside your personal grudges, put Daxia's country first, and tide over the difficulties with me."
Just say it.
The old man raised his head and drank the wine in one gulp.
Xue Yun in the main hall was silent, looking at the white-haired regent in the high position, and suddenly felt a little inexplicable melancholy.
The eldest royal descendant of the Great Xia Empire was obviously struggling to support himself.
The old blacksmith who lived in the northern border town and acted like a worldly master has long since ceased to exist.
People in the arena involuntarily.
Trapped in the whirlpool of power.
Even if Xuanyuan Zhong doesn't want to fight at all, the world and people's hearts will still force him to exhaust his efforts.
For the sake of this so-called world, the late regent still lived the way he hated the most at the beginning.
boom--
Just as everyone was thinking about their thoughts, somewhere in the palace outside the meeting hall, there was a sudden loud noise.
A Forbidden Palace messenger ran into the main hall in a panic, immediately knelt on the ground with one knee, cupped his hands and said: "In the imperial city, a burst of fire suddenly jumped up. Judging from the direction, it should be the "Scientific Research Department" There’s a problem over there!”
"Department of Scientific Research..."
He raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but repeat the sentence.
Xue Yun thought for a moment, realized something on the spot, and shouted quickly: "Oh no, it must be Zhao Tianyi who is causing trouble!"
