Judging from the current situation, Su Xiao felt that the power struggle would end soon, and the old king would not let the power struggle continue to drag on, and he would not allow it to drag on now.

If it is according to the original situation, it is obviously impossible to help a prince or princess ascend to the throne in a short period of time.

At present, the most favorable contenders, the eldest prince and the third prince, withdrew for the sake of the kingdom, and there are a total of 29 remaining competitors.

Among these 29 people, the seventh prince and the second princess. The six princesses have the highest chance of winning, and the remaining 26 people are either playing soy sauce, or they are ambitious but incapable.

The Seventh Prince has no military power and average financial resources, but he can summon a large number of holy warriors, that is, he has a huge number of high-end combat power.

This kind of person, if he wants to, he is more likely to inherit the throne than the eldest prince, but this is too Buddha, and he is also a little lazy.

Su Xiao seriously doubted whether this thing was really willing to become the new king, which was why he didn't directly choose the seventh prince before.

If the seventh prince is really full of ambition, then Su Xiao is seventy percent sure that the other party will become the new king, as for the other princes or princesses, if they are willing to give up, they will have a way to live, and if they are not willing to give up, they will all be killed.

Although Su Xiao is an iron hand, it is not convenient to directly support anyone, but the current situation is obviously different.

The assassination plan of the Necrons + the hidden danger of the kingdom's finances make the current kingdom of St. Sordin very much in need of a new king, rather than a long-term struggle for power.

The old king must know this, but he can't directly appoint a new king, which will make the power system more unstable.

If Su Xiao guessed correctly, the old king would not let the current situation go unanswered, and he would definitely have some countermeasures.

Cutting through the chaos quickly and finding a new king from among the many heirs is the best way to solve the current crisis.

While Su Xiao was thinking about what to do next, a Praetorian Guard walked into the council hall, and he came to Su Xiao's side and whispered something to Su Xiao.

At first, Su Xiao was obviously a little surprised, and then nodded.

"This old lion is more ruthless than I imagined."

Su Xiao snorted, a smile appeared on his face, compared to himself, the old king wanted to end the power struggle as soon as possible, and now that the enemy was current, if he continued to fight for power, it would be a little brainless.

Su Xiao's eyes looked at the sixth princess, and the second princess on the side closed her eyes and said, "I'll quit now, it shouldn't be too late." ”

"You don't need to give up just yet."

Su Xiao opened his mouth, and the old king asked him to do one thing just now, so as to speed up the election of a new king.

The old king and many officials were not blind, and it was already obvious which princes and princesses were eligible to inherit the throne.

The so-called power struggle is not to let all princes or princesses try their luck, whoever is lucky can inherit the new king, on the contrary, only with the approval of the majority of officials, that person is likely to inherit the throne, the power struggle is not luck, but a competition for ability.

The abilities of the eldest prince, the third prince, the seventh prince, and the second princess are all obvious, they all meet the requirements for inheriting the throne in some aspects, as for those non-royal heirs in the second echelon, Rowan Harvey has just committed treason, who would dare to let these people be the new king? If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what if, if someone from the Necromancy is really the new king, then the Kingdom of St. Sodin is not far from destroying the country.

The finances of the kingdom are in a mess, and there is a time bomb hidden, and the necromantic clan outside the god's wall is ready to move, and in today's situation, it is no longer 29 to 1, but 4 to 1.

Su Xiao walked up to the sixth princess, and the mad dog and the sixth princess narrowed her eyes.

"Iron Hand, you're trying to kill me?"

The sixth princess was not stupid, on the contrary, she had seen the current situation clearly.

"You have a chance to give up."

Su Xiao took out the golden lion pendant, and the old king didn't get it back before, because Su Xiao needed it very much for what he wanted to do in the future.

The sixth princess glanced at the golden lion pendant, pursed her lips, and the corners of her mouth turned up.

"I, no, choose."

The sixth princess glared at Su Xiao, and opened her mouth word by word, there was nothing else in her eyes except for killing accidents, in fact, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the spirit of this sixth princess was not very normal, if she was placed in the reincarnation paradise, maybe she could become a ruthless person.

Click!

In the flash of light, Su Xiao's hand had already pinched the neck of the sixth princess, and Bi pinched off the neck of the sixth princess.

The body of the sixth princess leaned limply on the seat, and the pupils of the other four people in the council hall constricted.

"Iron Hand, are you crazy?"

The third prince's voice was very low, no matter how mad the sixth princess was, she was a royal family.

"That's what my father meant."

The eldest prince is obviously much calmer.

"Father's ......"

The third prince was silent after thinking of the current situation, and the current situation was obviously that he could not continue to fight.

Su Xiao turned around and walked towards the outside of the council hall, there were other princesses or princes waiting for him to deal with.

When he walked to the door of the conference hall, Su Xiao's footsteps stopped.

"Congratulations to the four of you on making the cut."

Su Xiao pushed open the door and walked out of the conference hall.

"Huh?"

The corners of the second princess's mouth twitched, although she knew in her heart what was going on, but she didn't expect the old king to really do it.

Now all the princes and princesses have arrived in the royal capital, and they do not live in the royal palace, but in all parts of the royal capital.

What the old king asked Su Xiao to do was very simple, except for the eldest prince, the third prince, the seventh prince, and the second princess, the other princes or princesses did not perform very well in this power struggle, or in other words, except for these four people, most of the others were playing soy sauce, or engaging in some small actions, and even in trysts.

The old king was really angry about the indecent tryst between a certain prince and the princess, and he even thought about letting Su Xiao get rid of these two directly, so as to avoid this kind of scandal.

However, the younger princess was a bit strong, she was a holy warrior who was not weak, so the old king could only choose to turn a blind eye to prevent making things bigger.

……

In front of the door of a luxurious three-story residence, Su Xiao knocked on the door, and about two minutes later, a woman wearing a blanket opened the door.

"The Iron Hand?"

The woman looked Su Xiao up and down, her eyes a little puzzled.

"Give up this power struggle."

Su Xiao got straight to the point, and there were many famous princes or princesses waiting for him to 'greet'.

"What does Father mean?"

This woman in a blanket is very strong, but she is a princess.

"You can understand it that way."

The female princess pouted: "What good do I have?" ”

In terms of force, she was not afraid of the Iron Hand, at least she thought so.

"The matter between you and your brother will not be pursued from now on."

The bait thrown by Su Xiao was not small, and when she heard this, the female princess reached out and grabbed Su Xiao's shoulder: "Really? ”

The blanket slid down a little, and the female man's action almost caused Su Xiao to pull out a knife and cut off her head.

"Literally."

"Okay, I agree."

The female princess is very sincere, so sincere that she shows her breasts.

Things went more smoothly than expected, Su Xiao turned to leave, and the female princess pulled the blanket on her shoulder, and she looked at Su Xiao's back.

After a while, the female princess suddenly shouted: "Is the situation already so bad, help me tell my father, if I need to go to the battlefield, I will not refuse." ”

Su Xiao stopped, and the female princess raised her chin to Su Xiao, these princes, princesses and palace fighting dramas are different, they all know one thing, that is, compared to power, the continuation of the kingdom is more important, if there is no kingdom, they will all be hunted down by the necromantic clan to the ends of the earth.

Su Xiao began to 'visit' the princes or princesses who had participated in this power struggle, and most of them were surprisingly unanimous in their attitude, that is, they could give up, but they could not deprive them of the territory under their rule.

These territories are the 'consolation prize' for giving up the struggle for power, and the old king has long agreed to this, and as for the territory of the new prince's heir, it is no longer considered so much, and how to survive the current catastrophe is the key.

In about 2 hours or so, Su Xiao 'visited' a total of 26 princes or princesses, 2 of whom were ambitious, and now someone is already dealing with their funeral.

Su Xiao left from the last princess's residence, a smile appeared on his face, judging from the current situation, he has a chance to complete the main quest first, although the stay time will be greatly reduced, but there are many tasks in the original world, which can greatly extend Su Xiao's stay time.

If the main quest is completed, the burden on Su Xiao's shoulders will be reduced by one-third, and then there will be no restraint in his actions in the royal capital, even if he directly turns his face with the royal family, it doesn't matter, the worst result is to kill him.

An unrestrained iron hand, even the old king has to be afraid of three points, if the old king knows Su Xiao's true identity, I don't know how surprised his expression will be, or how terrifying it will be?
