Chapter 410: The Prime Minister's Invitation Again
"Is the coronation ready?"
At the same time, in the hall of the palace, General Stewart sat on the throne, glanced at several officials in the audience, and slowly spoke, gradually revealing an unbeatable atmosphere. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"General, why are you in a hurry?" said the Prime Minister with a smile, "Freden is already in your pocket. With my contact, most of the officials in various localities submitted to me. Several other generals from other places are now rushing to Xuedi City. They have quite a few troops, and we're going to have to work on it. β
Hearing this, Stewart raised his eyebrows, and said angrily: "General...... Is it?"
The prime minister hurriedly replied: "Those generals outside are certainly not the same thing as you. Once you've completed the ceremony, no one will call you 'General' anymore. β
Stewart was silent for a moment, then nodded, not objecting to the title.
β...... What about Master Benjamin? have you reached him?" he asked, after a moment's thought.
"I've already sent the letter. It's just that if he doesn't want to contact us, there's not much I can do. The Prime Minister said slowly, "However, I have sent people to explore the Black Rock Valley, and there was indeed a big battle, and I have found many fragments of the robes of soldiers and priests. Whether Bishop Victor lives or dies, he should have been hit hard at this moment. β
Stewart nodded, but still didn't seem very happy.
"I want more than just a hard hit. Bring that mage, and I must make sure that the bishop is dead before I can secure this throne. β
The Prime Minister nodded deeply: "I do my best." β
Seeing this, Stewart waved his hand, and the prime minister and several other officials walked together, turned around and pushed down, leaving Stewart alone. He reached out and gently stroked the handle of the throne below, falling silent.
Meanwhile.
In another city in Freden, Benjamin returned to the hotel with the letter sent by the Prime Minister.
After reading the announcement, he really wanted to take a break and digest the excessive amount of information. It's just that at the agreed address, the prime minister sent him another letter. He made sure that there were no people around him, and then took the letter away, ready to read it.
After all, this series of events made Benjamin feel like he was being tricked, which made him a little angry. And now, if he doesn't go to the other party's trouble, forget it, but the person who tricked him wrote him a letter instead?
He wanted to see what the prime minister was going to say.
However, after a short while, Benjamin frowned.
This is an invitation.
In the letter, the prime minister invited Benjamin to meet in the city of Shelly three days later, and said that whatever doubts Benjamin had at the moment, he would explain it to him when he arrived there.
The letter is not long, probably some apologies at the beginning, and the content of the invitation at the end. Throughout the letter, Benjamin didn't get any useful information, let alone what the other party's purpose was in inviting him.
...... Hongmen Banquet?
A sense of crisis rose in Benjamin's heart.
He had every reason to suspect the other party's intentions. Now, the general and the prime minister are in power, and the relationship with Benjamin has become very delicate. After reading the announcement, Benjamin felt that the other party might not really be from the church, but ...... That doesn't mean they're all in the same boat.
It was true that they were touting Benjamin in the announcement, but in Benjamin's view, the other party was just using him, and maybe even framing him.
-- All of this may have happened because they used Benjamin to defeat the church, and then they profited and seized power.
Now think about it...... No wonder. No wonder the prime minister took the initiative to find him, test his tone, and deliberately told him that the general was a member of the church.
It's all about today's bureau.
Not to mention the greatest benefit, but now, they have issued an announcement saying that it was all something they had planned, as if Benjamin was their subordinate. Wouldn't the whole rebel group be doing things for them, and what would the mages who followed Benjamin think of him?
This is when Benjamin was forcibly recruited without asking.
It's true...... Very under-flattened.
Benjamin is really a bit of a fire.
No matter who is standing behind the prime minister and the general, at this moment, he is very eager to fly to the palace and give them a blizzard. Still, shaking his head, he gradually calmed down.
You can't be rash, at least, you have to figure out the real purpose of the other party.
The other party took great pains to set up such a game, whether it was for the church, for Ikor, or even for Caritus, or ...... For power?
After thinking about it, he put the letter away, took out another pen and paper, and wrote a letter to Mikel. He wanted to hear what Mikel had to say, and then decide whether he wanted to go to this feast.
After writing the letter, Benjamin felt a little headache when he thought of the mages who followed him.
How could he explain the situation to them?
This so-called organization...... Can it continue to exist?
Clearly, anti-church was their greatest intention. Now, the church has been kicked out of Fredon - at least on the surface. And these mages are basically Freeden, and the affairs of other countries, to be honest, Benjamin feels that these people don't care much.
They were asked to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots, and follow Benjamin all the way to Haven Wright, and put the church's nest to ...... Is it possible?
Thinking of this, Benjamin let out a long sigh.
Killed a bishop...... And how?
It's not a good road.
Lying on the bed in the hotel room, he felt only a pang of exhaustion. So, maybe the world was being turned upside down outside, and he also had the urge not to care anymore, just close his eyes and fall asleep.
Probably too tired, he slept directly from the evening to the next morning, and when he woke up, he was groggy. Still, he opened the window, took a breath of fresh air, lifted his spirits, and started his day.
After sending the letter to Mikel, he gathered the original patriarch and held a meeting in the inn room.
"I want to ...... You've all seen what the announcement says, right?"
To his surprise, there were more than 20 people in the group, and the reaction seemed to be quite happy.
"Of course, we finally succeeded in driving out the church. Mr. Benjamin, it says you're the greatest hero!" Joanna nodded, a little excited.
Benjamin was stunned.
Seemingly...... The way he understood that announcement seemed to be a little different from everyone's.
But come to think of it, there weren't many things that the other mages knew. They don't know what happened to the Prime Minister or General Stewart's vagaries of stance. The only thing they knew was that the bishop had been killed by them, and now Freden had reinstated the ban on the church. And so, they succeeded.
If they succeeded, why weren't they happy? They didn't think they were being taken advantage of, and they just had to drive out the church.
Thinking of this, Benjamin also smiled helplessly.
Knowing less is really a blessing.
Pity...... In his current position, he is no longer qualified to be a naΓ―ve fool.
