Chapter 775: The Battle for the Throne (Fourth Update)
The third prince Delong snorted coldly:
"Humph! This handwritten letter, I will naturally ask a handwriting expert to do the identification! ”
"Also, I'm going to send someone to find out how my father died!"
"Could it be that some people with bad intentions brutally killed my father!"
General Tony's mind was calm, and all of this was expected by him.
He had long thought that there would definitely be people who would not believe the letter he had brought back and would not believe what he had said.
Therefore, he not only manipulated the handwritten letter of King Deno, but also thought of a rhetoric a long time ago.
He shook his head and sighed:
"Although His Majesty the King has personally entrusted me with the throne, this throne is not a comfortable chair for me Tony, but a dangerous seat full of nails!"
"Therefore, although there is a holy decree to let me sit on this throne, I will not sit on it."
"The eldest prince, the second prince, the third prince, the three of you, it's best to discuss, who should be on the throne?"
"When you have discussed it properly, we will hold a ceremony for the registration of the new king."
"As the saying goes, a country cannot be without a king for a day, and you had better discuss this matter as soon as possible."
At this point, General Tony paused, then looked at his ministers, and continued:
"I'm tired, it's time to go home and rest."
"I announce that from now on, I will resign from the post of general, go home to farm, and live for the rest of my life!"
After saying this, Tony bowed deeply to the thousands of civil and military officials above the court, and then turned to leave.
When the civil and military officials saw this, they were all stunned.
Just now they suspected that Tony had bad intentions, but now, Tony took the initiative to resign as a general, and he didn't want to be the king of the Anoma Kingdom!
What does this mean?
This shows that he doesn't care about this throne at all!
As a result, after General Tony left, only three princes and civil and military officials remained, standing on top of the court, with a bewildered face.
Tony is gone and resigned as a general, so who should preside over this court?
The civil and military officials were immediately divided into several factions, some supported the eldest prince Deis, some supported the second prince Deke, and some supported the third prince Delong.
These three factions should argue even above the court.
Tony walked out of the palace hall alone, listening to the sound of argument coming from behind him, and couldn't help but laugh.
These three young heads, let them fight among themselves first, and when they fight to the death, the fish die and the net is broken, I Tony will make another move, and then clean up the mess, and at that time, it will not be a matter of minutes to win the throne in one fell swoop?
The corners of Tony's mouth curled slightly.
Since the death of Commander Kus, many capable generals in the army have become his confidants, and although he has now retired to the countryside on the surface, in fact, his control of the army is still firmly in his hands.
His move is to retreat into advance, just to win the hearts of the people in the world.
However, to Tony's surprise, three days later, news came from inside the palace.
The second prince, Dirk, withdrew from the battle for the throne and chose to leave the palace for the remote Arcas Desert.
When General Tony learned the news, he was surprised.
Dirk was the smartest of the three princes, how could he be squeezed down by the other two so quickly?
It's absolutely impossible!
Could it be that the second prince is also like him, retreating as advancing?
General Tony frowned slightly, thoughtfully, and immediately issued an order to let people follow Dirk, no matter what he did, he had to come back and report it at 1510!
Two days later, the man in charge of tracking Dirk came back and told General Tony that Dirk was dead!
Killed by a group of men in black!
At that time, Dirk was resting in the camp in the Arcas Desert, when countless men in black suddenly appeared, and then hacked Dirk to death!
Dirk's head hung on the banner of the Men in Black's warhorse!
And the men in black, with Dirk's head, all fled the scene and disappeared without a trace.
When General Tony heard the news, he was even more shocked.
Dirk died like this?
It's too sudden, isn't it?
He doesn't believe in this fact.
You know, Dirk is the smartest of the three princes!
He's always seen him as the biggest stumbling block!
How could he just die like this?
So he asked the next person: "Are you sure that the second prince is dead?" ”
The subordinate replied: "The villain did see the second prince being hacked to death with his own eyes. ”
General Tony asked:
"Why didn't you bring his body back?"
The man replied, "His body has been chopped into meat sauce, and only one head remains, which was hung on the banner by the men in black and taken away. ”
When Tony heard this, he was still not at ease, and sent people to sneak into the Arcas Desert, and searched for a long time, but he didn't find those men in black, nor did he find Dirk's head.
So he can only stop there, and can only believe that Dirk is dead.
Well, now there are two more princes, one is the eldest prince Deis, and the other is the third prince Delon.
The struggle between these two princes was fierce.
Both of them were assisted by countless courtiers who gave advice.
Although the two are brothers, they are always thinking about how to kill each other.
For this reason, they even did not hesitate to use conspiracy methods, sending people to assassinate, secretly poisoning, beauty schemes, etc., all kinds of schemes emerged in endlessly.
directly made the entire palace into a miasma, and the people were panicked.
Although the eldest prince usually seems careless, but when it comes to critical times, he is vigilant and cautious everywhere, so he has been assassinated many times, but he has survived by luck, and in terms of food, every time he eats, he has to let his subordinates try it in advance and then eat it.
In the past few days, several people who have tried it have been poisoned and died.
As for the beauty scheme, he never goes to find those beauties of unknown origin, and all his concubines must be strictly selected before they can sleep.
And the third prince's side, he has also been assassinated several times in the past few days, and the sedan chair he is riding in has also been installed with a time bomb, fortunately, he knows how to read minds, and everyone around him, as long as he is ten meters close to him, he can know what they are thinking.
Therefore, those who want to harm him have no way to get close to him!
The third prince has a very strange personality.
No one could fathom what was going on in his heart, but he could know what was going on in the hearts of all those who approached him.
He naturally knew that all the assassinations against him were committed by the eldest prince.
So he gritted his teeth with hatred for the eldest prince, but what made him helpless was that he had no evidence that the eldest prince was targeting him.
Because those who failed to assassinate themselves committed suicide by poisoning themselves in the first place, leaving no clues at all.
It made him angry.
In a fit of rage, the third prince directly carried the sword and went to the eldest prince to settle accounts.
He decided to solve this problem in the most straightforward way.
"Big brother, this is the last time I call you big brother!"
The sword in Delong's hand pointed to Deis's chest and said:
"Now that the throne of the king, you and I are fighting, the organs are exhausted, and we are torturing each other, it is better to have a happy duel directly!"
"Big brother, do you dare to fight me to the death?"
When Deys heard Delon's words, he was stunned for a moment, and then laughed out loud:
"Ahaha!"
"Why don't you dare!"
