After the holographic video conference was over, the old king pressed his chest and coughed violently.

The intelligence officer, the octopus, was in a hurry to turn around, but there was nothing he could do.

The genetic medicine that should be eaten, the old king has never stopped.

But no matter how powerful the potion is, it can't save the withering life of the old king at this time.

But the old king seemed to have seen it.

After a violent cough, the old king of Zhulu took a sip of the nutrient gene essence with difficulty, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

"Old Zhang."

"Your Majesty! Subordinates are here! ”

"Hehe, don't be sad. This call with Chen Xing, I am really happy! Not bad! That's good! Chen Xing, this little guy, is really a rare genius! ”

"Your Majesty, please don't get too excited, it's not good for your condition." The octopus kindly reminded.

The old king coughed heavily a few more times, and the high-grade nutrient gene solution he had just drunk was mixed with the blood in his lungs, and he coughed it out.

"Your Majesty!" The octopus looked at it in his eyes, and his mood was unusually sad.

During this time, the old king's condition became more and more serious.

With such a condition, the old king should not have come forward to adjudicate the dispute between the border army and the local army.

Moreover, according to the old king's original plan, even if he wanted to intervene in the dispute between the two armies, he would have to intervene when Chen Xing was cornered.

In that case, it is equivalent to sending charcoal to Chen Xing, which can better win Chen Xing's hearts.

This is the power of kings.

However, the old king seemed to feel that his time was afraid that he would not be able to hold on to the point where Chen Xing was forced to the end of the mountain by the local army.

Especially when he saw that the entire border army was inspired by Chen Xing's victory and began to mobilize on a large scale, the old king realized that if he didn't come forward again and really let the local army and the border army fight, then I am afraid that in a year or two, Chen Xing would not have any difficulties.

Rather, it wasn't to save time, and directly got Chen Xing to the capital of Zhulu.

In the eyes of outsiders, bringing Chen Xing to the capital of Zhulu was a punitive measure for the old king's imprisonment and supervision.

But in reality, this was a major strategy that the old king had been waiting for for a long time.

"Lao Zhang, after Chen Xing comes to the capital star, he will inevitably encounter a lot of difficulties from the powerful, even from the royal family."

The old king took a breath, "You have to protect Chen Xing secretly for me, understand?" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The octopus said strangely, "Your Majesty, aren't you going to summon Chen Xing?" ”

The old king smiled, "Summoning him?" Of course I want to, but the intention is too obvious, so let's use the stocking strategy and let Chen Xing run out in the capital star by himself. By the way, isn't he the king of soldiers of the Frontier Army? It stands to reason that he should go to Zhulu Imperial University to study, so arrange him to go to Zhulu Imperial University and see what fame he can make. ”

The octopus asked tentatively, "So, should the third princess and the northern regent Xiang Fan return their freedom?" ”

The old king shook his head, "No, let them stay within the safe reach of this king." The undercurrent of chasing the deer capital is turbulent, and I don't want them to have any mistakes, and I can't let them have any mistakes. ”

"Understood, Your Majesty."

The eight-clawed octopus sighed and said, "I just don't know if Her Royal Highness the Third Princess and Lord Xiang Fan can understand this piece of Your Majesty's hard work." ”

The old king of Zhulu smiled dumbly, "I am not doing this at all to let others understand my good intentions, I just want to leave a powerful and unified Zhulu Empire after my death." ”

The octopus was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but think of the king's personal intelligence AI "Suzaku" once prophesied - split.

Will the Chase Empire really go to split?

Or will it maintain the current stable situation under the strategy of chasing the old king?

The octopus is really worried about whether the old king will not be able to sleep one night.

The octopus quickly cleared the cluttered thoughts in his mind, stabilized his mind and continued to report: "Your Majesty, there is one more matter. As soon as Liao Xinghui died, a commander of the royal garrison was already vacant, and the queen nominated a new commander, does Your Majesty agree? ”

The old king smiled faintly, "Let me guess, this new commander is probably also the queen's mother's family, a member of the Wolf Empire, right?" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Hmph, the Royal Garrison is second only to my Inner Court Guard. The Guards were responsible for the security inside the palace, while the royal garrison was responsible for the security outside the palace, i.e., the entire capital. Such an important position was finally vacant because of Chen Xing's merits, how could I let the queen have the opportunity to install her own people again? ”

The old king sneered and said: "Lao Zhang, when you go to reply to the queen, just say that I have been unwell recently and don't want to think about the government for the time being, and I will give her an answer when my mood calms down." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Anything else?"

"Not for the time being, Your Majesty."

"Alright, I'm going to rest."

King Zhulu closed his eyes leisurely, but he still murmured: "Lao Zhang, you are now the only person I can trust, you can't betray me." ”

The octopus suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and quickly knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty! The subordinates are loyal to Your Majesty and will never betray Your Majesty! ”

"Well, that's good, that's good."

The old king snored slightly, as if he had fallen asleep.

The octopus did not dare to make any alarming sounds, and cautiously left the inner sanctum.

Half an hour later.

In the Queen's bedchamber.

"What? Your Majesty actually said that you don't want to think about the government?! The little prince Li Shixiong frowned angrily and said.

The queen sighed, "Yes, male, that's what the octopus said. ”

"The Queen Mother! This is clearly the old guy's excuse! The little prince said angrily.

The queen hurriedly went to block the little prince's mouth, "Xiong'er, how can you say that about your father! By blood, he's your father! In terms of identity, he is your king! ”

Li Shixiong smiled coldly, "He is already terminally ill, but he still refuses to declare me the heir of the Zhulu Empire, and he still does not appoint a new commander of the garrison!" This is clearly going to deal with us! Queen mother! Since he, the father and king, is so ruthless, then I, the son, don't have to be polite to him! ”

"Xiong'er! You must not say that! ”

The queen grabbed the little prince stubbornly, "The queen mother knows that after you lost to Chen Xing twice in a row, your mood is inevitably impatient, but you must wait and endure now!" What's more, I heard that your father has brought Chen Xing to the capital, and the capital is our territory! When the time comes, it will not be easy to deal with Chen Xing! ”

Li Shixiong's eyes flashed, "Oh? Are you sure? ”

"Of course it's true!"

The queen breathed a sigh of relief, "No matter what, Chen Xing is the primary confidant!" Get rid of Chen Xing first! ”

"Good! Queen mother! I listen to you! ”

Li Shixiong narrowed his fierce eyes and said, "This time, I won't lose again!" I want Chen Xing to die without a place to be buried! ”
