Chapter 144: A Sultry Night (Part I)
The other elders were very happy to watch the Great Elder's jokes, and Her Majesty the Empress suddenly issued a centralized notice, which greatly weakened the authority of each Elder, but compared to the deprivation of the military and administrative powers of the Great Elder, the sacrifices of the other elders were not worth mentioning at all.
Despite this, the Grand Elder retains de facto control over the Eternal Empire's main armies. Her Majesty the Empress is clearly forcing Carlos to stand up, if he does not hand over the military power, all the troops under Carlos will be listed as rebels in terms of status, and if he does not hand over the power, Carlos will be tantamount to rebellion.
Carlos quickly calmed down, "Elders, I don't think we should sit idly by, on the contrary, we should work out relevant strategies to resist Her Majesty's willful dictatorship, if the Empress insists on becoming a dictator, it will be extremely detrimental to our Eternal Empire, I don't think everyone here will watch the great rivers and mountains of the motherland in the hands of an immature young girl, right?"
The fourth elder pinched his mustache and showed the appearance of a shrewd businessman, "Please forgive my memory, if I remember correctly, Her Majesty the Empress attended the royal coming-of-age ceremony last year, so is this also an immature young girl?"
"What do you want to express?" said Carlos quietly.
"You Carlos Consortium has squeezed enough money, and there is no respite to suppress our Pace Consortium in various economic fields, if Her Majesty the Young and Beautiful Empress can really exercise her imperial power, it will not be a huge opportunity for our Pace Consortium, if there is such an opportunity, I really want to know what it is like to become the world's number one consortium. The Fourth Elder smiled coldly, "I support Her Majesty's decision, I just want to be a businessman quietly." With that, he stood up, put on his top hat gentlemanly, and walked out of the round table.
Carlos's eyes were full of coldness, and he snorted coldly, "Stupid!
The Fifth Elder shook his head helplessly, "I am the former Pope, and Her Majesty is the god of my faith. Although I am very reluctant to be deprived of too much power, but in the end, as a believer, there is really no way to resist my own gods. Sorry ......"
As the elders continued to leave the table, the second elder, who was left at the end, said with a smile: "I didn't expect that Carlos, you also had a day when everyone betrayed and left, and I had already led the entire Western Camp to pay allegiance to Her Majesty the Empress, and handed over all the decision-making power to Her Majesty the Empress." As a colleague, I advise you to save your worries and not bear the infamy of the ages. ”
Watching Layla leave, Carlos directly kicked over the seat of the second elder and gasped for breath, "Obviously, Qinghe Bay has been captured, with our country's military strength, the day of occupying Chiba City is just around the corner, the Black Domain is about to fall, and our Eternal Empire can obviously unify the world, but all this has been destroyed by these short-sighted ants!"
Wait a minute......
It's not that I don't have a chance, and if I can hold His Majesty hostage, it's not too late. Carlos had a lot of crazy ideas in his head, and if he wanted to complete the forced palace, he needed to find a suitable general.
Carlos quickly denied that there were too many uncertainties in Wuzhen, whether he was sincere to him or not, he had killed his brother after all, not to mention that Wuzhen had a strong loyalty to the royal family.
Carlos's mind quickly flashed with countless people, and in the end he settled on a suitable role, and perhaps that person would be foolproof in doing it.
Frost Ling City, in a small inn.
Wuqiu stared blankly at the candle flame on the table, he owed too much to the Sword Pavilion, and he didn't want to go back to Ni Yunsheng. From a big hotel to a third-rate inn, the difference in living environment is not small, but Xiaoxue doesn't care at all, as long as Brother Wuqiu is, which is the best destination for her.
Regarding the death of the second brother Wuqiu, Wuqiu did not hide anything from Xiaoxue. When she first heard this, Xiaoxue was also shocked and lost, but when she saw the even more sad Wuqiu, at this time, she chose to be silent very obediently, because any comfort seemed extremely harsh at this moment, Wuqiu, that was a very important relative to Wuqiu.
Go back or stay......
Wuqiu thought about it repeatedly, he wanted to escape and return to the small town where he grew up, and as time went by, he would gradually forget about it. But when I think of Wuzhen's face of betraying his brother for profit, Wuqiu's anger doesn't come to one place, if he stays, is he really sure that he will become stronger than Wuzhen?
Wu Zhen is a general, a master at the level of the Fire Dragon King, even if he stays, he will definitely be controlled by Wu Zhen everywhere, how can he be stronger than Wu Zhen?
After thinking about it for so long, Wuqiu thought of a person, Wu Ming, the master who had a relationship with him, although he didn't admit that he was an apprentice, but after all, that man had the grace to teach him skills, if he went to ask that man, I don't know if there was a chance to learn better martial arts.
Since Master Wu Ming is the head of the Sword Pavilion, then he will set off for the Sword Pavilion tomorrow.
There was a knock on the door, Xiaoxue thought it was the guy who poured tea and water in the inn, and when she opened the door, she saw a very charming woman standing at the door.
What a beautiful sister, but what is such a beautiful sister doing here?
The beautiful sister stood there, breathing like a quiet orchid, for a long time, and asked softly: "May I ask if Wuqiu is there?"
Xiaoxue immediately became vigilant for the first time, "What are you looking for my brother Wuqiu?"
"Your Majesty Ellie," Wuqiu knelt down on one knee, "Today in the hall, Wuqiu has made a number of rudenesses, and I hope Your Majesty will not blame you." "For this empress, Wuqiu still has a good impression, if it weren't for her, she might still be kept in the dark.
It turned out to be His Majesty's sister, Xiaoxue stuck out her tongue and immediately knelt down, she also heard about the things during the day, and it seemed that it was because of the benevolent help of His Majesty Ellie Jie that she was able to get out.
"No need to be polite. Ellie asked the two of them to get up, but Xiaoxue was still a little embarrassed by her previous rude behavior.
"I'm going to pour tea. Xiaoxue said in a panic and ran out.
As soon as Xiaoxue went out, there were only two people in the whole room, Alysie and Wuqiu, and Wuqiu looked at the Empress Elijie in front of her suspiciously, completely different from the Empress Majesty she saw during the day, just like two different people, Her Majesty the Empress in the day was dressed solemnly and behaved properly, and she could see her demeanor as an empress.
