After Li Zhen and his party returned to the hall, the guests and hosts took their seats.
Tiqi no longer sat on the main seat and directly gave up his position to Li Zhen. The pirates did not raise any objections and all followed Tiqi's decision. This shows that Tiqi is definitely a man of his word among the pirates. Character, very high prestige.
Teach looked excited and couldn't help but slap his thigh and asked loudly: "President, please give the order directly. I will attack Hawaii how you want me to. When I think of entering the palace of Kamehameha IV, I was so excited that I didn’t sleep well last night, and I’m still a little sleepy now.”
Li Zhen chuckled, this guy is really a fighting maniac.
Thomson smiled and said: "President, Captain Teach is a famous adventure maniac. The more people he cannot mess with, the more dangerous things, he is not afraid at all. You asked him to attack the Kingdom of Hawaii. This is under his control." It’s tickling my heart.”
"You're the only one who talks too much," Teach said.
Li Zhen said: "The first step, which is also the step to lay the foundation for winning the Kingdom of Hawaii, is for Captain Teach to take action."
"Oh, great." Teach said excitedly.
Thomson rolled his eyes and asked: "President Lee, there are thousands of soldiers from the Kingdom of Hawaii imprisoned on the island. If all our brothers come out, there will be no one to guard the island. What are you going to do with these soldiers?" Woolen cloth."
Li Zhen gave a thumbs up and said: "Thomson hit the key point."
Thomson became confused. He thought to himself, Teach was the first to take action, so why did the soldiers of the Kingdom of Hawaii become the key?
Li Zhen smiled slightly and immediately told the first step of the plan, telling Tiqi and Thomson in detail the next operation. After listening to it, both of them widened their eyes with an incredible look, and Tiqi even more He praised, gave a thumbs up and said: "The President is worthy of being a famous general on the battlefield. His actions can be called a stroke of genius."
Thomson also said: "President Lee's plan is incredible. No one would have thought of such an unexpected method. When the time comes, he will definitely win the Kingdom of Hawaii without any effort."
Li Zhen smiled and said, "Stop flattering and go ahead and execute it."
After receiving the order, the two men immediately went to prepare.
…
Oahu, Honolulu.
The palace and the main hall were in chaos. Most of the officials were arguing about the crown prince. Kamehameha IV was still young and no one expected that he would be killed suddenly. Because the crown prince was not established, Kamehameha When the news of the fourth generation's murder came back, the officials could not find anyone who could convince the public, and they argued endlessly.
"As the king's wife, Queen Emma has always fulfilled her responsibilities in governing the country with the king. Now, the king is suddenly in disaster. As a person who knows the government affairs well, Queen Emma will undoubtedly be very important to the kingdom if she is in power. It is beneficial and can make the kingdom stable. I insist that the queen inherits the throne, and I ask you to support the queen."
"No, I firmly oppose the queen's succession."
"invalid objection."
"Although the Queen has the possibility of inheriting the throne, there is no doubt that the Queen is not the first heir. When His Majesty Kamehameha III was still alive, he sent His Majesty the King and His Majesty the King's younger brother Prince Lot to study together. The purpose of the various countries was to cultivate the talents of the two people. After the two returned to the country, His Majesty the King and Prince Lott served in the Privy Council and the House of Nobles, becoming the best in the kingdom and gaining recognition from the people. Now His Majesty the King was killed, and Lott Prince Te deserves to inherit the throne."
"I am opposed to Prince Lott inheriting the throne. His Majesty the King still has heirs, and the young prince should inherit the throne. If His Majesty the King has no heirs, then Queen Emma or Prince Lott may succeed. Now His Majesty the King's son Still, the little prince should inherit the throne, and then Queen Emma should be the regent and Prince Lot should be the assistant. This is correct."
"The little prince is under four years old and is weak. It is obviously not possible. For the long-term development of the kingdom, he must be young, strong and talented. Prince Lot is the most suitable candidate. I propose that Prince Lot should succeed him. .”
There was a lot of noise in the main hall.
Some of the ministers of the kingdom have even started to fight with each other. They are completely unbecoming of a minister of the kingdom. They treat the main hall like a quarrelsome vegetable market, where you come and go without any politeness.
Queen Emma and Prince Lot, the core figures involved in the center of power, said nothing.
For a long time, the hall felt like a vegetable market.
"Quiet, this is the palace hall, not a market for buying vegetables. If anyone messes around again, I will kick him out immediately. He is simply unseemly and does not look like a minister of the kingdom."
A loud voice came and Prince Lot spoke.
As soon as he spoke, the hall suddenly became quiet.
Prince Lot is in his early thirties and has a burly figure, but he is so fat that it affects his image.
However, this does not affect his majesty at all.
Wherever Lott glanced, everyone immediately shut up and became quiet.
This scene fell in Queen Emma's eyes, and Queen Emma's heart suddenly sank. Lot's high prestige was not a good thing. For Emma, as long as Lot did not inherit the throne, everything would be easy, even if she herself could not When a woman like Queen Victoria rules a country, her son will inherit the throne, and she can still hold the power.
Queen Emma's thoughts changed and she asked: "Lot, what do you think about the king's matter?"
This question kicked the ball out.
What Queen Emma means is that if I take the initiative to ask, you can't recommend yourself to be the king. If you recommend the little prince to take over the throne, then I will directly agree to complete the handover of power.
Lott's eyes narrowed, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
Immediately, a smile appeared on his face.
Lott looked calm and said calmly: "Your Royal Highness, in my opinion, the life and death of His Majesty the King have not been truly confirmed yet, so we should not rush to discuss the matter of the successor to the throne. After all, we have only heard that His Majesty the King was killed. , but no soldier came back to tell the truth, and no one proved that the king was killed. Therefore, maybe it was pirates who captured His Majesty the King and deliberately disrupted the order of the kingdom. I think it is best to confirm the news about His Majesty the King first. What do you think? "
The words were neither humble nor arrogant, and Queen Emma's expression changed drastically.
Emma thought to herself, What a cunning Lott.
However, Emma was not a gas-efficient lamp. She nodded, and then said with a smile: "I agree with Lott's suggestion to check the life and death of His Majesty the King first. However, His Majesty the King has not come back for the time being, and he has to deal with political affairs. A charter.”
Lot snorted in his heart, knowing that Emma wanted to fight for power.
He secretly said that Emma was difficult to deal with. After all, she was the queen and had a son.
"Report,."
When Lot was thinking about how to seize power, a soldier from outside the hall quickly ran in with an eager expression. After the soldier entered the hall and stood still, he saluted respectfully and then said loudly: "Her Royal Highness the Queen, Her Royal Highness Prince Lot, follow His Majesty the King The soldiers who left together are on their way back and will soon arrive outside the city."
