The negotiation went much smoother than expected, although the princess Sayeto had always suspected that Su Xiao had any conspiracy, but the throne was there, and she certainly wouldn't miss this kind of God-given opportunity.

As Sayato walked out of the Imperial Diet Hall, she couldn't help but look back at this magnificent building, which had been the highest authority of the Empire since the death of the Black King, and from which all important orders were heard.

If everything goes well after that, the Imperial Diet will cease to exist, and not only the Imperial Diet, but even the Senate and Sayeto are ready to be gradually eliminated.

Even, she was ready to abolish the hereditary system of royal power, withdraw power from the dukes and ministers, and change the hereditary system to an electoral system.

Regarding the hereditary system, Sayeto is both a beneficiary and a victim, and the empire has not had a new king for more than ten years, because of the hereditary system.

The electoral system is different, the people and officials will immediately elect the next king when the previous king falls, and Chayeto is even preparing to canonize official positions such as 'councillors' to make the electoral system fairer.

It can be said that the princess Shayeto is full of ambition, so she is extremely disgusted with Su Xiao, Duke Yinyu, Bloomer and others, and the idea of 'just leave it to me, I will make the empire better and more perfect'.

It was precisely for this reason that Shayeto was a little irritable when facing Su Xiao and the others.

However, the Black King initially thought he could govern the empire well, but for some reason, he chose the hereditary system, abandoned a more efficient electoral system, and sat on the throne for more than three hundred years.

Not to mention Shayeto, who is full of ambition and has already mobilized his subordinates to prepare to become the new king, Su Xiao is also preparing here.

"Already okay?"

He was wandering around the street with Su Xiao, and the old god stick with a metal book in his hand spoke.

"It's basically no problem, Sayerto's side has agreed, and Wufu and the Chancellor of the Exchequer can't hold it down, but fortunately, they don't dare to jump out in a short time."

Su Xiao squatted in front of a stall, holding a palm-sized clay sculpture to observe, this thing was well made, and there was a trace of eternal power inside, some similar to amulets, which gave him inspiration, that is, whether he could use alchemy to create one-time defensive equipment or props.

"They are openly against you? Got on the Sayeto side? ”

The expression of the old god stick was nothing unusual, and it looked like he had long thought that there would be such a thing.

"Not anytime soon, but it's a matter of time."

When Su Xiao supported Sayeto to become the new king, he had long thought of the reaction of Wu Fu and the Chancellor of the Exchequer, which was actually normal.

Wu Fu and the Chancellor of the Exchequer are willing to support Su Xiao, nothing more than to climb the dragon and the phoenix, once Su Xiao becomes the new king, they will also become big names like the founding fathers.

But Su Xiao gave up becoming the new king, which inevitably made Wu Fu and the Chancellor of the Exchequer have ideas, and it is not good to say, they are now Su Xiao's eagle dogs, and they were all hostile to Shayeto.

Once Shayeto becomes the new king, it will be equivalent to Su Xiao's loss of power, and once Shayeto settles accounts after the autumn, it will be enough for Wu Fu and the Chancellor of the Exchequer to walk around.

This is the human heart, in the struggle for power, no one will always be loyal to anyone, you know, Woolfer was once a subordinate of Bloomer, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer once swore loyalty to the Minor Duke.

"Explain to them the price of becoming a new king, and they may ......"

Before the old god finished speaking, Su Xiao, who was facing away from him, waved his hand.

"The human heart is more complicated than you think, are you right, Ken Rahan?"

"Perhaps......"

The old god's gaze was a little complicated, his mouth opened and closed, as if he wanted to say something to Su Xiao, but after a while, he chose to be silent.

"Kukulin White Night, I'll always be on your side."

The old god stick tapped one hand on his chest, revealing the smile he had when he first met Su Xiao.

"Oh."

Su Xiao threw a few black coins on the stall, got up and walked towards the end of the street, from beginning to end, he didn't look at the old god stick.

"I'm sorry."

The old god stick looked at Su Xiao's back and whispered, and continued in a voice that Su Xiao couldn't hear: "If you're going there, I'll go all the way with you until I die, Kukulin." ”

……

At seven o'clock in the evening the next day, Roland Blossom Manor.

On both sides of the main gate of the manor were dozens of Holy City guards, dressed in gold-black armor, with standard swords inlaid with rubies on their waists, and although they stood neatly, their eyebrows exuded arrogance.

Of course, these guards can't be used for war, but as a guard of honor, they are the best choice, each of them is young and handsome, and has some background.

Roland Manor is the property of the princess Sayeto, she doesn't usually live here, but tonight, it is open to all imperial officials and wealthy merchants, as long as it is a person with a head and a face, she must be there tonight, unless she doesn't want to mix in the holy city.

Outside the main entrance of the manor stood several of Sayato's officials, all of whom had put down their shelves tonight, and no matter how small the position of the officials who came, they would greet them warmly, flattering the petty officials.

A gold-plated carriage stopped, the carriage opened, and several old servants got out of the carriage first, after which a young boy of eight or nine years old stepped out of the carriage.

"Your Excellency the Duke is here."

An obese and oily official stepped forward quickly, he was the fourth person under Shayeto, named Evan, in a game between the two sides, he was almost caught by Wolfer in the military camp outside the city, and when he got there, even if Evan was an important official of the empire, he would not live for more than two hours, and it was Sayeto who did not hesitate to come forward in person, go to the right imperial manor to meet Su Xiao, and protect him in a way that was almost cut meat.

"You're Evan?"

The little duke did not know what to chew in his mouth when he spoke, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer was not by his side today.

The Chancellor of the Exchequer is already on the other side, and although the Chancellor of the Exchequer remains loyal to the Petty Duke, it is a matter of position.

"Yes, Your Highness, please."

With a smile on his face, Evan personally introduced the little duke to the manor.

At this time, in the courtyard of the manor, a makeshift meeting place had been set up, and of course, as a little duke, he was soon led to the banquet hall in the castle.

The guests arrived one by one, most of them could only participate in the dinner in the courtyard, and even they could not even see the owner of the manor, Sayeto, but they came with an attitude.

In the castle's banquet hall, most of the Imperial officials whispered to each other at the banquet table, and the dance floor in the center belonged to the young men, not the old men.

As for the owner of the castle, Sayato, she was standing in the banquet hall in a formal attire, and the high-ranking officials of the empire were sparing no effort to compliment her.

From beginning to end, Sayeto was a little absent-minded, because the most important guests had not arrived, and the chairs next to the first one were empty.

"It's ...... Are you a little unwilling? ”

Shayeto smiled, she no longer doubted that Su Xiao had given up the royal power, with today's dinner, it was inevitable that she would become the new king.

……

Right Imperial Manor, in a dimly lit study.

Behind the antique desk, Su Xiao was holding a semi-weathered notebook and flipping through it, Bu Buwang was lying on the desk, and Eminem was sitting in the corner not far away, because the room was relatively dim, only its general outline could be seen.

The moonlight shines through the window, and the old god stick stands in front of the window, and Sayeto's invitation to dinner is directly ignored by him.

Knock, knock, knock......

There was a knock on the door, and Wooder pushed it open and walked into the study, smelling of alcohol.

"You should be there for Sayato's dinner."

Su Xiao didn't look at Wufu, and his attention was focused on the broken notes in his hand.

"I, Wu Fu, am a rough man, and I am not used to attending any egg dinners, and when Lao Tzu is so poor that he can't even get a pension, that woman doesn't even look at Lao Tzu."

Dressed in full-body armor and a little angry, Wu Fu sat in the corner with a bottle of spirits in his hand, and began to drink sullen wine.

After about a few minutes, the door was pushed open again, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer in formal clothes walked into the room with a few oil-paper bags tied tightly, he didn't say much, he casually found a chair and sat down, and threw the oil-paper bag in his hand to Su Xiao, and then to Wu Fu.

"This is the venison from my hometown, my lord try it."

The Chancellor of the Exchequer, regardless of his demeanor, picked up a large mouthful of venison and stuffed it into his mouth, and chewed it heavily.

"It's not a good choice to come to me tonight."

Su Xiao also picked up a piece of venison and put it in his mouth to taste it carefully, although the meat fiber was rough, but there was a strange aroma, which made people can't help but pick up another piece and put it in his mouth to chew.

"The wine is delicious, and if you drink too much, you will die quickly."

Wu Fu grinned and didn't say anything else, obviously, he and the Chancellor of the Exchequer chose to side with Su Xiao.

"Zos, this little rabbit cub has stiff wings, and it is said that Sayeto introduced the councilor's daughter to him, and that kid is now considered to be out of the way."

Wu Fu poured a few sips of wine into his mouth, and his eyes became extremely ferocious.

"Young man, easy to be tempted, but Sayeto promised me the position of left emperor, I am really willing to do it."

The Chancellor of the Exchequer shook his head with a wry smile.

"That woman promised you left? Coincidentally, on my side is the commander of the imperial army, who is more prestigious, commanding all the border army of the empire. ”

Wolfer looked at the Chancellor of the Exchequer with a grim expression, and the old gentleman tossed a deer bone at Wolfer.

Sayeto is actually not despicable in doing this, or rather, she is uneasy not to take away military power and finances from Su Xiao.

Unfortunately, the Chancellor of the Exchequer ignored her, and Wu Fu pretended to be deaf and dumb, and after receiving the benefits of Sayeto, he sent it directly to the Right Imperial Manor.
