Chapter 33: Cai Jiu's thoughts
Najeta arrived at Heaton's side with a team of about fifty men left.
Najeta is nowhere near as easy as Estes after several big fights.
There is a gap in strength after all.
Although the flying dragons raised by Emperor Gu [Stars] are not super dangerous species, they have also reached the category of second-level dangerous species, and many of them even have first-level level.
Hundreds of Wyverns are besieged, or attacked in the air, if there is no General Bud to make a move, it is good that a hundred-man squad can leave ten people.
Adjutant Rewa and Guy are relatively good, and with the blessings of the emperor and the vassals, it can be dealt with a lot easier.
After this battle, Rewa was extremely satisfied with the young man Guy, and agreed with each other that they would see the flower street in the imperial capital together when things were over.
Nahaxiu and the others from the assassination force arrived one step earlier, and all four of them had vassals, and they didn't encounter any enemies along the way, except for hurrying and flying dragons, which seemed to be a little redundant in this battle.
Heaton doesn't have any special ideas about the world protagonist, and the status gap is there, so it would be weird if he really wanted to intervene in the assassination team.
Guy said hello to Reva when he arrived, and then went to Gozzi to report back to the team.
Looking at the boastful expression on his face as he hugged Nahasiu, he knew that he was talking about his glorious deeds of defeating the emperor's envoy.
"General Najeta, hard work."
Heaton thanked Najeta, no matter how useful it was, Najeta's hundred people were always a distraction in the eyes of the minister, and he specially sent two imperial envoys to deal with Najeta's team, and even the guards around the palace were pinned down by Najeta.
All of this would save Heaton most of the trouble, otherwise General Estes would have to work harder.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! ”
The ministers who had been waiting for a long time had come from nowhere.
When this group of people saw that the movement in the palace had disappeared, they watched one by one, and saw the minister lying on the ground with blood on his face like a dead pig, and immediately understood everything.
But this is not to marvel at the little emperor's operation against the wind, nor is it when he is worried about whether he usually licks the minister ruthlessly, but when he has to kneel down and hug his thighs!
Heaton is too lazy to care about this group of people, and the waste that is useless to the country and the people will have to be disposed of sooner or later.
At a glance, he saw Cai Jiu hiding behind the ministers and fishing in troubled waters.
Hunched over, with rat eyes, looking left and right, peeking at Heaton from time to time, trying to see Heaton's reaction.
But it didn't matter, it happened to be Heaton's gaze.
Cai Jiu suddenly felt a sigh in his heart, and he really couldn't hide this little fox.
"You Interior Ministers have a heart, but tonight the palace has changed dramatically, and the Minister has been planning for a long time to rebel, thanks to the escort of General Estes and General Najeta, I am safe.
For the sake of safety, it is best not to go out at night, if there is anything, we will talk about it tomorrow. ”
When the internal affairs officials heard this, they said yes one after another, and one by one they couldn't wait to put on their backs and fly home immediately.
"Hey, Cai Jiu's internal affairs officer, you stay first, I still have something to order."
Heaton looked at Cai Jiu, who was about to turn around and leave, and couldn't help but roll his eyes, you kid really dare!
For Cai Jiu, Heaton is still slightly interested in this kind of person.
The success of this plan is indispensable to this old boy's secret fueling.
Whether it's Bud's connection with the assassination force, or the assassination team's connection with Estes, or Lubbock's connection with Najeta, you say Cai Jiu doesn't know, but Heaton doesn't believe it.
Regarding the control and grasp of the imperial capital, Cai Jiu is called the second, and no one dares to call it the first.
As the number one dog leg of the minister, of course, it is in the eyes of others.
Cai Jiu's political thinking is higher than that of anyone in the room.
The empire's tax policy, the assassination of troops, the burning of troops, and the laboratory are all directly responsible for Cai Jiu, and the minister doesn't care.
It's not trust, but that Cai Jiu won't betray him, he doesn't dare!
Cai Jiu really didn't dare, with the protection of life as the first principle, in the heart of no one to be offended, the first time Bude contacted the assassination force, Cai Jiu knew that there was a conspiracy!
But he just didn't investigate, didn't even ask, and didn't tell the minister, let it develop.
And then for the last time, Heaton said that he would make a big effort to ask General Najeta to wait for General Estes to return to the imperial capital.
At the critical moment, the last straw was put for Heaton to overwhelm the minister.
As a result, I don't ask for credit now, so I just think...
"Can't see me, can't see me..."
Heaton grabbed Cai Jiu's hand.
"Cai Jiu's internal affairs officer, I can see it very clearly!"
Without Cai Jiu's first turn of a blind eye, Heaton didn't dare to directly let Gozzi contact Estes!
"The position of minister is already vacant, why don't you become Minister Cai Jiu?"
Heaton said half-jokingly, smiling.
"No, no, no, Your Majesty's words are serious, how can I be virtuous, I don't deserve it~"
Cai Jiu's obscene face squeezed out a smile that was more ugly than crying, he really didn't want to be it.
If it were someone else, how dare you say that you are not impressed by this position under one person, but Cai Jiu really doesn't want to do it.
What are you doing sitting on it? Was he punished by the Ming Dynasty and beheaded to show the public to vent the anger of the people?
He knew very well that there was a rebellion in various places because the tax policy he had set was too high and the people could not have enough to eat.
He dared to agree to be a minister, and he believed that his overly clever majesty would drag him to West Street to hang a cross the next day.
"Then Your Excellency, you say, who is more suitable than you in the court now, a minister who is suitable for the empire and the people?"
Heaton asked rhetorically.
"I..." Cai Jiu still doesn't understand, Your Majesty wants to govern the country, and he has two choices, either he himself or he doesn't recommend someone.
Those who become ministers also have two choices, one is to punish the canon, and the other is to have real talent and hard work to govern the country well.
Although he has real talent and hard work, but his own value is obviously more suitable for beheading.
Why don't you chop Earnest!
This was Cai Jiu's first thought, but after thinking about it, no, Earnest is not enough alone, his biggest crime now is to manipulate the royal family, and these bad policies seem to be set by himself!
"Your Majesty, leave the choice of minister to me, and I will definitely give you an answer tomorrow!"
Cai Jiu swore and assured Heaton.
"Oh~ Then His Excellency Lao Caijiu will bother."
Only then did Heaton let go of Cai Jiu's hand, and didn't bother to pay attention to him, looking at Estes and Najeta on the side.
"The two generals have worked hard at night, about the emperor's tool, why don't you go to the palace treasury now?"
The Imperial Palace's treasure trove is not limited to imperial equipment, because it is underground and has a high defense factor, so it will not be destroyed by tonight's explosion.
"I'm tired of Your Majesty!"
Najeta answered with Estes.
