Compared with the old king, Su Xiao's attention was more focused on the throne under the old king.

"Under the throne."

The old king spoke suddenly, and spoke in astonishment.

"You're under the throne of curiosity."

The old king looked directly at Su Xiao, that kind of gaze was definitely not the gaze that a dying person should have.

"The High Priest and Karen Jarrett both know that there are secrets under the throne, but they don't know what is under the throne, they die in front of you, and as expected, they will reveal some secrets before they die."

The old king patted the armrest of the throne, and his body leaned back on the throne, feeling the uneven touch of the throne.

"Iron Hand, what do you want to look for under the throne? There's nothing out there that you're craving. ”

There was dead silence in the chamber.

"Find the key."

Now, Su Xiao is also ready to talk to the old king, he doesn't know what is under the throne for the time being, but judging from the tone of the old king, the other party doesn't seem to be too resistant to what is under the throne.

"Keys?"

The old king was stunned for a moment, and then thought of something: "The key is on the first layer, you really need that thing, after all, you have inherited the power of the guardians. ”

Su Xiao's identity as the shadow of the law could not be concealed at all, and if the old king could not find out about this, then he would not be able to crack the assassination carefully arranged by the necromantic clan.

This old guy looks like he is going to die, but in fact he has a mirror in his heart.

"It turns out that what you are pursuing is still power, so I am relieved, originally I thought that you were pursuing that thing, and it was good if it wasn't that, if it wasn't."

The old king breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes were no longer sharp, however, the thoughts in his heart were not like this, in the old king's opinion, if Su Xiao entered the throne, he would not be able to come out alive at all.

The old king trusted the Iron Hand, but he was not sure that the Iron Hand would be loyal to the new king.

It is true that the old king will die soon, and before he dies, he will use last resort to get rid of some people.

It was clear that it was not wise to remove the Iron Hand by force, but it was a good choice under the throne, so the name of the High Priest was added to the list of 'Killing Nights'.

Under normal circumstances, the high priests should be dealt with by the Praetorian Guards, because the Praetorian Guards are dead soldiers and can keep many secrets.

With the old king's thoughtfulness, could he not have imagined that the high priest would tell the secrets under the throne before he died?

He had long thought that the news under the throne was actually deliberately revealed by the old king.

The struggle for power is so ruthless, just now, Joe Valentine, who has worked hard for the old king, accepted the temptation, if Joe Valentine's expression was slightly wrong at that time, he would definitely not be able to leave the chamber.

A generation of emperors and courtiers, officials like Su Xiao, Joe Valentine, and Heslett who hold great power, can the new king really suppress them?

Therefore, the old king made a series of temptations, Heslett passed first, Joe Valentine also passed just now, and as for Rowan Harvey, before the old king could test the goods, the goods gave the old king a surprise.

As for the temptation of Su Xiao, Su Xiao didn't have this opportunity at all, because most of the things he did were not visible, killing powerful ministers, knowing a lot of secrets of the royal family, and persuading a large number of princes and princesses.

It's not that the old king doesn't want to find an opportunity to test Su Xiao, but he can't do this, God knows what will happen when he is tempted, others don't know Su Xiao's combat effectiveness, but the old king knows.

The old king had thought of besieging Su Xiao with the Praetorian Guards + holy warriors in the royal capital, but that would definitely make a big noise, and once it spread, the reputation of the royal family would plummet.

As for not getting rid of the Iron Hand, don't be kidding, except for the old king, the other princes or princesses were a little stunned when they saw Su Xiao, and they were all stunned when they met, how could this make Su Xiao help them die? It's simply impossible.

Not only that, the old king also vaguely felt that there was something wrong with this iron hand, as for what was wrong, the old king didn't know, and sometimes Su Xiao's unintentional gaze made the old king a little frightened.

For example, now, the old king suspected that Su Xiao would cut his throat with a knife.

This was not the old king's delusion, Su Xiao was indeed thinking about doing so.

Su Xiao walked slowly towards the old king, and the old king's eyes narrowed.

"Your Majesty, you allowed me to enter under the throne?"

At this moment, Su Xiao was only one meter away from the old king, and at this moment, many doubts in the old king's heart suddenly cleared up.

"There are at least 300 Praetorian Guards outside the temple."

The old king continued to look at Su Xiao, but a smile appeared on Su Xiao's face, this was the first time the old king saw the Iron Hand smile, and he once thought that the Iron Hand did not smile at all.

"They can't stop me."

"You~"

"You've allowed me to go under the throne."

This time, Su Xiao was no longer in an inquiring tone.

"What if I don't allow it?"

The old king's bite muscles protruded, and his body probed forward.

"Then I will slaughter all the royal lineage."

“……”

The old king was silent, and just now, he showed his fangs, but what he didn't expect was that an iron hand that obeyed him also showed its fangs, which caused him to think of a word that was useless.

Regarding the Iron Hand, the ideal way is for the Iron Hand to die under the throne, or to become the same kind of those things under the throne, to be suppressed under the throne forever.

"Who the hell are you?"

Things have developed so far, if the old king still believed that Su Xiao was the original Iron Hand, then he would have died long ago under the frequent assassinations of the Necromantic Clan.

"It doesn't matter, Bai Herbert, how about we make a deal?"

"Oh?"

The old king looked at Su Xiao in surprise, he didn't expect the other party to be willing to make a deal with him now.

"Allow me to bring a prince or princess under the throne, and as for royal power, I have no interest in that thing."

"You ......"

The old king looked at Su Xiao in astonishment, this was the first time he showed astonishment, or rather, this was a rare state of affairs for him.

"How do you know what it takes to get under the throne, how can you possibly know!"

The old king forced himself to calm down, and now the situation was clearly beyond his control.

"You may have forgotten how many people I've killed for you? It's almost time, and the deal is over. ”

“？”

The old king was stunned for a moment, and then thought of something, and at this moment, he smiled, and smiled with some relief.

"Who is it? Which of my descendants is it? Let him come to me. ”

The old king wanted to stand up, he already knew that Su Xiao was stalling for time before.

At this moment, the iron door of the council chamber was pushed open, and two figures entered the council chamber, after which the door of the council chamber was locked.

Blood soaked down the crack at the bottom of the metal door, and at the door of the council chamber, there were more than a dozen corpses lying densely, all of them the corpses of the Praetorian Guard.

Hundreds of blood-stained Praetorian Guards stood guard around the chamber, preventing anyone from entering.

"Father, I've come to see you."

A male voice came from the door of the council chamber, and Joe Valentine followed respectfully behind the visitor.

"Hahahaha."

The old king laughed, and he was now very relieved, very relieved.

"Martier, you have become my finest offspring."

The old king was not angry, nor did he roar, but he looked at the people who came with only satisfaction.

The person who came was not the eldest prince who everyone expected, but the third prince Martil Herbert, the third prince who had lost some power at the beginning of the power struggle, and the third prince who was not very high-profile for a while.
