Reincarnation Paradise - Chapter 1247
[Chapter 17: Big Shots]
Seeing the information of these five people, Boubo Wang is obviously in a tangle. In its view, the probability of these five people becoming the new king is not low.
Of course, these five people are only the most likely to become the new king, and the remaining ones are not completely hopeless.
These competitors can basically be classified into four types. The first type is active abstention, with a total of 18 people. The second type belongs to soy sauce, with a total of 16 people. Ambition also has strength, that is, the five princes and princesses.
For a period of time after that, Su Xiao will of course pay due attention to these people. After all, his main quest is related to these people. He needs to choose one of the 49 princes or princesses and let him successfully inherit the throne.
Su Xiao still has 14 days to observe, so he is not in a hurry to make a choice.
Walking on the bustling streets, Su Xiao quickly arrived near the palace.
As Su Xiao approached the palace, the expressions of the officials who were talking at the entrance of the palace changed. It was obviously not acceptable for them to walk away. It would be a shame.
Now, in the eyes of these officials, the Iron Hand is a combination of the God of Killing + God of Plague + God of Death.
The three officials walked towards the palace, keeping their expressions as natural as possible.
The old king’s summon today is not a discussion, but a banquet, a luncheon.
Of course, this meal was not so delicious, because ten princes or princesses also attended the banquet, and all officials with real power in the capital must also be present, this banquet must be very ‘lively’.
When Su Xiao entered the banquet hall in the palace, he found that more than a hundred people had gathered here.
Don’t underestimate these hundreds of people. Any one of these people is a big man. He has no real power and huge wealth in his hands, and he is not qualified to participate in this luncheon.
There are many long square tables in the banquet hall, and high-end drinks, various rare fruits, and exquisite snacks are placed on the square tables.
The old king has not yet appeared, so the atmosphere in the banquet hall is very lively. Among the many officials, there are many big businessmen. Although they have a lot of wealth in their hands, their status in the banquet hall is not high.
The reason why the old king summoned these big businessmen was mainly to let these people see the princes or princesses. The meaning was obvious, and he chose one of them to support.
Of course, the big businessmen who can enter the eyes of the old king are not small people, but in today’s banquet hall, they have become small characters.
As soon as Su Xiao walked into the banquet hall, many eyes were focused on him.
“Hey, this way.”
A rude shout came. Of course, the person who dared to greet the Hand of Iron was not a small character. This person was the commander of the kingdom’s army, Heshlet, who was in charge of the kingdom’s military power. He was dressed in black and had several vertical and horizontal lines on his face. Staggered scars.
There were two people sitting beside Heshlet. One of them, Su Xiao recognized, was the old man Rowan Havina, the treasurer of the kingdom. The other, Su Xiao, had never seen it before. According to his guess, this person was probably the Archon Joe Valentine.
Including Su Xiao, the four most trusted confidants of the old king are all together.
Su Xiao stepped in the direction of Rowan Harvey and others. If it was in the past, Rowan Harvey would definitely show a hostile attitude, but today is different, he no longer needs to show that kind of hostile attitude.
“Iron Hand, you slipped away early yesterday, but I haven’t slept well yet.”
The old man Rowan Harvey spoke, his face was undisguised tiredness, it seemed that raiding a house was not an easy job.
Su Xiao sat at the wooden table, next to Rowan Harvey and other three people side by side. This square table was the closest to the old king’s seat. Except for Su Xiao and other four people, no one else was qualified to sit here, even those princes or Neither can the princess.
“Murdering is not easy. I met Joseph Ko last night.”
Su Xiao also changed his taciturn attitude before, because he knew that the current situation is very special.
Before the power struggle begins, Su Xiao and the other four most trusted officials of the old king must have some minor conflicts with each other, even if the conflict is just a show,
This is actually an attitude that reassures the old king.
Now it is different. The previous situation where there were minor contradictions with each other is obviously not suitable for the current situation.
Once the power struggle begins, no matter how many officials the old king kills, the situation in the capital will be a little turbulent. At this point in time, of course, there can be no more ‘minor conflicts’ between the four of them. On the contrary, the four of them must show solidarity. , so as to help the old king to calm down the scene.
“Joseph Coe?”
Heshlet, the commander of the kingdom’s army, spoke, and he obviously recognized Joseph Ke.
“Right now he……”
Heshlet seemed to ask unintentionally, but in fact he wanted Joseph Ke to live.
“I was slaughtered by me. If I guessed correctly, he came to pay the debt of favor.”
“Is that so?”
Heshlet sighed, and there was some regret in his eyes. This regret was not for the show, but from the heart. He fought side by side with Joseph Ke.
“have a drink.”
Heshlet raised the wine glass, and the wine in the glass was very full. Rowan Harvey and Archon Joe Valentine both raised the metal wine glass, and Su Xiao also raised the wine glass.
Ding~
When the wine glasses touch each other, the four drink it all in one go. This is an attitude. Many people in the banquet hall see the four people clinking glasses.
“Bai Ye, let’s talk about private topics. When you killed the High Priest last night, did he say anything interesting? That guy is a genius.”
Archon Joe Valentine spoke up, a thin middle-aged man in charge of most of the officials.
Hearing that Joe Valentine mentioned the high priest, Su Xiao turned his eyes to look at the other party.
“Interesting thing? He said he would marry his daughter to me and let me spare his life.”
“The high priest has a daughter?”
“Maybe it’s an illegitimate daughter. That guy’s style has always been disrespectful, but with the guy’s appearance, his daughter…”
“Hahaha.”
Heshlet laughed out loud, this guy has a more forthright personality.
“By the way, who are you optimistic about this time?”
The little old man Rowan Harvey put down the wine glass in his hand and held his hands together. He is definitely a sweet pastry in the struggle for power, after all, he has the financial power.
“I’m optimistic about the third prince, no matter how I look at him, he is pleasing to the eye.”
Legion Commander Heslett said that his support for the third prince was something everyone thought of. As for being on the wrong team, don’t be kidding. What if Heshlett was on the wrong team?
He holds the military power in his hand, and once Heshlet dies, the joke will be played, and the front-line theater may collapse.
As long as the new king’s mind is normal, no matter who Heslett supports, the new king cannot touch Heslett, but will win over the commander of the kingdom’s army.
“Who do you support? Do you think I don’t want to live anymore?”
Joe Valentine gave a dry laugh, he couldn’t show who he was supporting at will, and it would be bad if he was in the wrong position.
“Valentine, did you get beaten up by your wife again? Why is your face blue?”
The little old man Rowan Harvey began to tease Joe Valentine. Joe Valentine, a big man, has a characteristic, that is, he is afraid of intimidation. His wife is a super cruel person. uncertain.
“Shut up for me, old pig.”
“He was definitely beaten up by his wife again,”
Hezlett added fuel to the fire.
“A reckless man, an immortal, you two ****.”
Joe Valentine swears again.
These three are the people with the most power outside the old king, so the big man must be serious?
Behave Svenly?
No, these big figures in private will also swear, but they are not known to outsiders. In the eyes of outsiders, they are high above, and they have a sense of majesty as long as they sit there.
Don’t talk about these three people, the old king will also swear at Su Xiao and other four people when he is very angry. One time the old king was very angry with Heslett and pointed at Heslett’s nose and roared, “Get out of me.” ‘, this is the cronies, if other officials anger the old king, no, there is no way they can anger the old king, because before that they have been turned into corpses.
At the dining table in the distance, two seventeen- or eighteen-year-old girls were chatting and laughing in a low voice. These were two princesses, but because of their young age, they gave up the struggle for power directly, so they didn’t need to fight each other.
“Lydia, what do you think the four of them are discussing?”
One of the princesses spoke.
“I don’t know, it should be discussing a major matter. Lord Joe Valentine’s face is flushed, it should be a very important matter.”
Lydia was actually very curious about what national affairs Su Xiao and the other four were talking about.
In fact, Rowan Harvey is describing a time when he was having fun with Joe Valentine, and was then blocked by Joe Valentine’s wife, who was so scared that he didn’t even wear his pants. Jumping out of the window, but this guy is worthy of being a consul, and his IQ is absolutely top. Although he is clueless, he covered a particularly critical part with his hands, that is, his face.
At this moment, the door of the banquet hall was pushed open, and the king arrived.
PS: (Today’s two shifts are considered a day off. The temperature in the north has dropped sharply recently, and the small plastic body of the waste mosquito has naturally caught a cold.)
