Chapter 42: Lend Your ......
There was a dead silence in the kingdom chamber, and the third prince stood on the stone staircase under the throne, his face a little ugly.
Joe Valentine stared blankly at the old king's corpse, his lips opened and closed, although he had taken refuge in the third prince, he had 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 turned their faces, but in fact this was not the case, the old king was sure of one thing before he died, that is, Su Xiao would not betray the kingdom like Rowan Harvey.
The old king used his life to test that Su Xiao would not betray the kingdom, this was an important message he left for the third prince, and the third prince understood, so he did not call a large number of Praetorian Guards to besiege Su Xiao.
"In the end, you calculated it once."
Su Xiao glanced at the old king's corpse, and the old king's face did not have the fear before death, but was smiling.
The old lion was actually going to be unable to hold on 7 days ago, he suffered from severe asthma, so he kept coughing dryly, the old lion knew that his life was short, but before the new king was elected, he knew that he could not die, he must not die.
The old lion first took the secret medicine, and then injected the blood of the Necromantic Monarch into his body, and the Necromantic Monarch was not transformed by the Necromantic Race, but by the powerful Holy Warrior.
The blood of the Necromantic Monarch successfully sustained the life of the old king, but he also had to endure unimaginable pain, during these days, the old lion could not sleep at all, he was experiencing the pain of madness every moment, this is terrible, if it was a healthy old king, then how wise would he be?
The old lion successfully held on, and when the new king appeared, when the third prince walked into the kingdom chamber, 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 to betray the kingdom, or not to join the forces of the necromancy.
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 with his actions, that is, 'your uncle will always be your uncle, and you are still too young'.
The third prince is indeed not as feared as the old lion, but he is a smart person, so he did not turn his face with Su Xiao.
It's not that the third prince is afraid of Su Xiao, it's that he needs the identity of Su Xiaotie's hand to deter those powerful ministers.
When the third prince is fully in charge of the royal power, he will definitely turn against Su Xiao at that time, and it is not a simple matter to completely take over the royal power, it will take at least half a month or even a month or two.
During this period, as long as Su Xiao did not do anything to make the third prince blow up, the two sides would maintain a tacit understanding of not interfering with each other, which was the result that Su Xiao wanted, although it was not the most ideal result.
Originally, Su Xiao wanted to support a capable puppet (the other party couldn't resist in a short time), but unfortunately there were too few such princes and princesses, and even if there were, it was unlikely that they would be able to convince the public.
Princes and princesses have received 'higher education' since childhood, they are proficient in the art of kings, and the straw bales have long been eliminated, and those who remain are very capable.
As for supporting a puppet through and through, Su Xiao never thought about it that way, even if he supported a puppet, the other party must also be capable, the threat of the necromantic clan is in front of him, if the necromantic clan breaks through the front line, then the joke will be big, after that, Su Xiao does not have to think about completing the task, but has to think about how to survive under the siege of the necromantic 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, such a prince becomes the new king, even if the economic system of the kingdom collapses, the necromantic clan will not be able to defeat it in a short time.
If the commanders of the front line learn that the third prince has become the new king, then they will be as excited as if they have been beaten with chicken blood, and the third prince will definitely focus on promoting them, and the kingdom legion commander Heslett may even become the right hand of the third prince, even if he is the courtier of the old king and belongs to the former courtiers, but he has stood in line very early and has always supported the third prince, unless the third prince's head is kicked by a donkey, he will definitely reuse Heslet, if he does not reuse Heslet, it will chill the hearts of many people.
The current situation is obviously beneficial to Su Xiao, he and the third prince contain each other, the third prince needs him to deter those powerful ministers, and Su Xiao needs the third prince to keep the kingdom stable, only in a stable environment, he can complete the hidden side quest more easily.
As for the assessment task of the promotion adventure group, Su Xiao had already roughly guessed how this task would be activated, if that was the case, he would have to leave the royal capital after completing the hidden side quest and go straight to the frontline battlefield.
Before the third prince came to the throne, he actually had no relationship with the old king, he could occasionally see the old king when he was ignorant when he was young, and when he was a teenager, he got a fief on the border, and since then he has been fighting with the necromantic clan all year round, it can be said that the third prince grew up in the military camp, so he will be so iron-blooded and ruthless.
"Your Majesty, what should be done with the old king's funeral?"
Joe Valentine spoke in a low voice, and he changed his words quickly, and the third prince directly became His Majesty, and the old lion became the former old king.
"Valentine, you give me an opinion."
The third prince looked at Joe Valentine with a smile on his face, which was already somewhat similar to that of the old king.
"This ......"
Joe Valentine changed his previous respectful attitude to become enthusiastic and familiar, in fact, he was not too familiar with the third prince.
"In my personal opinion, it is better not to hold the funeral of the old king."
"Oh? How so? ”
The third prince looked at Joe Valentine with more interest.
"Your Majesty, you think, only the three of us know about the death of the old king."
"Wang!"
Bu Bu Wang, who had been watching the excitement nearby, screamed, Joe Valentine was startled, and Bu Bu Wang glared at him, which meant: "Isn't Ben Wang a person, Ben Wang is a Wang Xing person." ”
"Ahem."
Joe Valentine coughed lightly in a slightly embarrassed way, of course he recognized Bu Bu Wang, who was inseparable from Su Xiao, but he didn't know when Bu Bu Wang entered the council hall.
Seeing Bu Buwang, the corner of the third prince's eyes jumped, there were so many Praetorian guards outside the palace, he couldn't understand how this dog came in.
Bu Bu Wang looked around the meeting room, and after looking around, Bu Bu Wang was disappointed, which meant, "What about the banquet that I said." ”
Bu Buwang entered the council hall, not simply to find something to eat, but to warn the third prince that even if there was a large number of Praetorian Guards to protect him, Su Xiao could still take his life, maybe one day when the third prince was asleep, Bu Buwang would sneak up to him and bite his throat.
"In the near future, I will enter the throne and borrow your sister by the way."
Su Xiao walked towards the outside of the conference hall.
"My sister?"
Before the third prince could ask which sister it was her, Su Xiao had already left the council hall with Bubuwang.
