Inside the meeting hall of the royal palace. Hundreds of guards are guarding near the throne. Since the palace suffered a sudden earthquake yesterday, the entire palace has been under martial law. You should know that when choosing the location of the royal city, the royal family had taken natural disasters into consideration. Now the location of the royal city where the Kingdom of Saint Sodin is located has not experienced an earthquake for thousands of years. When the earthquake suddenly struck yesterday, the people were terrified and almost thought that the dead spirits had broken in. This made the fourth princess very upset. She took great efforts to calm the panic of the people. In the next room of the parliament hall, the fourth princess held a pile of official documents and war reports in her hands, which described the current critical situation in detail. Recently, the soldiers of the dead spirits seemed to be crazy, attacking the Wall of God like a tide. The fierce offensive caused the pressure on the front line to increase sharply. The kingdom's general Heslett has sent messages for help many times, and the words between the lines reveal the tension and difficulty of the war on the front line. Looking at the financial situation of the kingdom, it is simply too terrible to look at.
Since Rowan Harvey explained all the situations, not only the fourth princess was shocked, but the upper class of the entire kingdom was in an uproar. Today's kingdom's finances are already in vain, like an empty shell. On the surface, it seems that there are still a lot of money and property, but in fact, the remaining money and property are a bit difficult to maintain the normal operation of the kingdom. Fortunately, the old king had foresight and dealt with the chief justice in advance, which left a large amount of wealth for the newly appointed king. Otherwise, with such an empty treasury now, let alone supporting the front-line war, it would not even be enough to pay the salaries of these officials in the kingdom. Now the fourth princess is guarded by four holy warriors. Since she got the seal of the seventh prince that symbolizes the wings of the kingdom, the fourth princess can be said to have firmly controlled the military power in her own hands. During the few days when she was acting as the king, the fourth princess suddenly felt that the position of the king was simply a hot potato. Whoever wanted to be the king could do it. Looking back, she was really obsessed to fight for the throne. The fatigue of handling state affairs in the past few days made her miserable. She only slept for three hours in four days, and her dark circles were so heavy that it was like being punched twice. What made her most unacceptable was that she found that she began to lose a lot of hair. So the fourth princess had already thought about it. As long as the seventh prince came back, she would immediately return the kingship to that guy. After all, the fourth princess fought for the throne in the first place, largely to save her life. In this treacherous royal family, if you are particularly outstanding in one aspect, you will naturally become a thorn in the eyes and flesh of others. Even if the fourth princess does not want to continue to fight now, she has to bite the bullet and fight for this symbol of power because of the various forces around her. "Pass my order to mobilize 300,000 troops from the northern military region to the Wall of God. We must stop the attack of the undead tribe at all costs." "Yes!" After hearing the order of the fourth princess, the officials below did not dare to delay at all, and quickly bowed and retreated to pass on this extremely urgent order. Although the fourth princess has only been in power for a few days, she has fully demonstrated her vigorous and iron-blooded means in this limited time. Relying on the holy warriors around her, she directly killed those stubborn and clique-forming officials, and executed more than 100 officials at once. This bloody act was like dropping a huge rock into a calm lake, instantly causing a great uproar in the entire royal city, and the officials in the royal city were all in danger.
Just when the fourth princess was having a headache due to this series of events, she suddenly heard a faint movement coming from next door. Bang! The metal collided, and the throne high up in the conference hall flew up directly. At this moment, a large group of guards rushed into the kingdom's conference hall like a tide. The fourth princess hurried to the location of the kingdom's parliament hall with several holy warriors. "Sure enough, the air up there is still good. I've been down there for a long time, and I feel like I'm about to become a corpse after breathing too much air." Hearing this voice, the fourth princess' eyes lit up instantly. She was sure that she had not heard it wrong. This was the voice of the seventh prince. The next second, Am climbed out from under the throne with an ice hammer. Then, the seventh prince, Lin Yi, Su Xiao and Bubu Wang filed out, and the last one to come out was the prisoner. These people now look dirty, or as dirty as if they had just crawled out of a garbage dump. There is no way to do this, after all, there is no place to wash below, and the blood on their bodies has dried and condensed into lumps. "Is this the breath of freedom? It's so comfortable." Prisoner Xing slightly raised his head, his eyes focused on the ceiling that had not been repaired in time, looking at the beam of sunlight that came in, and his breath involuntarily escaped a part. The fourth princess forced herself to put her hand on the shoulder of a guard beside her, and then she barely stabilized her body and did not make a fool of herself in front of everyone. "Constrain your breath a little." The seventh prince frowned, walked over quickly, raised his hand and gave Prisoner Xing a slap. Prisoner Xing, who was a little dazed by the sudden attack, came back to his senses and retracted his breath. "In this case, the contract has ended and I should leave." Prisoner Xing murmured. As he spoke, a contract appeared in front of him and began to burn out of thin air. The blue flame jumped and soon devoured the contract. What Prisoner Xing never expected was that after this contract burned out, there was another contract hidden under the ashes. Under the gaze of everyone, the newly appeared contract suddenly seemed to be controlled by an invisible big hand and split into four. The strange thing was that there were prisoner Xing's handprints on all four contracts. Prisoner Xing had never seen such a strange scene before. He widened his eyes and was stunned. He looked dumbfounded. Looking at the newly appeared contract and the contract power that kept surging from his body, Prisoner Xing's mind seemed to have suddenly crashed and was blank. After a long while, he slowly turned his head and cast his eyes on Su Xiao. "This is to prevent you from turning your face and ignoring me." Su Xiao said slowly while lighting a cigarette. The smell emanating from his body was indeed a bit pungent. It was not noticeable when he was under the Xia Temple. After all, the rotten and heavy smell in the mausoleum was much stronger than the smell of the few of them. Now that he was up there, the smell seemed a bit unpleasant. The prisoner's face became a bit gloomy and ugly. He then looked at the contents of the four newly signed contracts, and his face eased a little. The main content of the four newly signed contracts was actually to restrict the prisoner from attacking the other three people. In simple terms, this was equivalent to a one-way non-harm treaty. "You are nothing like your ancestors." Prisoner Xing stared at Su Xiao. In his impression, the Shadow of Destruction back then would not have so many complicated twists and turns. He always relied on one man and one sword to kill everyone in fear and flee.
"No way, I am not as powerful as my predecessor." Su Xiao did not feel the slightest guilt about this. In his opinion, this was just a necessary measure to ensure his own safety. "You are finally back! Here, this is the Iron Crown, take it back quickly." When the Fourth Princess saw the Seventh Prince, she quickly stepped forward and could not wait to hand the Iron Crown on her head, which symbolized the supreme royal power, to the Seventh Prince. When the Seventh Prince saw the Iron Crown, it was as if he saw a bomb that could explode at any time, and he was immediately shocked. He coughed twice and said hurriedly: "Ahem, look at me now, I am in such a mess, how can I be the king? You have been managing the country well these days, why don't you be the king?" The seventh prince racked his brains and tried every possible way to get rid of this hot potato. He didn't want to be bound by the throne for his whole life. In his opinion, if he really sat on the throne, he would not be able to go outside the Wall of God to find trouble with those undead monarchs, and he would not be able to go out freely to have fun with those beautiful young ladies. The fourth princess was so angry that she laughed. She could see that the seventh prince was just going to be a hands-off boss. "Don't try to push this thing to me again. Just sit on this throne honestly." The fourth princess smiled grimly and put the crown on the head of the seventh prince without saying anything. The seventh prince was a little helpless and raised his hand to touch the iron crown on his head gently. It's really strange. Just a few days ago, everyone was fighting for this crown, but now, everyone has begun to dislike it. "Okay, since the crown has been returned to you, I'll leave. I haven't slept well these days, and I have dark circles under my eyes." The fourth princess took out a small mirror and looked at herself in the mirror distressedly. You know, before she took the throne, the fourth princess kept herself more beautiful than those 28-year-old girls, but now, she looks as if she has aged by a dozen years. "Don't worry, fourth sister, you must help me. Political affairs are really not my area of expertise. Otherwise, how about giving you the position of cabinet head?" When the seventh prince saw that the fourth princess was about to leave, he immediately became anxious and hurriedly reached out to hold the fourth princess. Such a capable helper can't be let go so easily. "Cabinet head?" Hearing this position, the fourth princess frowned slightly and began to hesitate. The position of the head of the cabinet is actually equivalent to the prime minister, with great power. And the affairs of this position are not so complicated. The only responsibility is to submit some key matters to the emperor for the final decision. "Deal. But now, I have to go back and have a good beauty sleep. Don't disturb me if you have nothing to do." The fourth princess glanced at the seventh prince, then turned and left the kingdom's meeting hall. She hummed a light tune while walking towards her villa in the capital. She planned to clear all the messy things in her mind first, and as for the follow-up matters, she would talk about it after she took care of herself. Several people did not mind the blood stains on their bodies, and directly held a banquet in the kingdom's meeting hall. Ten minutes later, they sat down in a circle in the conference room and began to eat heartily. Originally, Lin Yi thought that Am's appetite was ridiculously large, but until he saw the unique eating style of Prisoner Xing, he suddenly felt that Am's eating style was very cultured compared to Prisoner Xing. Am at least finished the food before putting the plate into his mouth. Prisoner Xing was even more fierce. He directly picked up the plate and stuffed it into his mouth with the food. I really don't know if his stomach can digest these things. "Two more roasted lambs and a roasted cow." After the prisoner Xing crunched the bones in his hand, he continued to shout loudly to the attendant beside him. Fortunately, Prisoner Xing learned human language very quickly. Although he still stumbled when speaking, there was no problem in normal communication. After hearing Prisoner Xing's request, the servants around him immediately walked out of the conference room quickly and asked the chefs in the kitchen to work overtime to prepare food.
"What are you going to do after you come out from down there?" The Seventh Prince looked at Prisoner Xing with his eyes piercing, and suddenly a strange idea came to his mind. "I want to go around first, to see how much this world has changed compared to the original Shia Dynasty." A confused look appeared on Prisoner Xing's face. He had been trapped in the Shia Temple for hundreds of years, and this long time was enough to erase the scenes in his memory. "What do you plan to do after you finish your journey?" The Seventh Prince asked. Prisoner Xing shook his head slightly and said softly, "I don't know." The Seventh Prince smiled and said enthusiastically, "If you have nowhere to go, why not come to me. I dare not say anything else, at least I can guarantee you enough food." Hearing the Seventh Prince's words, Prisoner Xing stared at him deeply. At this moment, he suddenly saw a trace of the shadow of Emperor Shia in the Seventh Prince. This meal, everyone ate and drank to their heart's content, lasting for three hours. The imperial chefs in the kitchen have been replaced by three groups. The first two groups were helped out because of hand cramps. Am ate the lamb leg in front of him cleanly, and then burped with satisfaction. Lin Yi and the Seventh Prince and others had already eaten their fill, and they lay on the carpet in the conference room, holding their stomachs. As for the dried blood on the bodies of several people that made the carpet in the conference room dirty, the Seventh Prince didn't care at all. In his opinion, the worst thing would be to change a new carpet. "By the way, this is the iron crown you want." The Seventh Prince lay on the ground, as if he suddenly remembered something, and then casually took off the crown on his head that symbolized the royal power and threw it to Su Xiao who was carefully maintaining the Dragon Slash. Su Xiao reacted quickly, raised his arm slightly, and caught the iron crown steadily. This crown is made of iron, with a hard texture and not easy to damage. In the middle of the iron crown was a bright red ruby. Su Xiao skillfully removed the ruby and threw the crown back to the Seventh Prince. "I'm going to leave." After obtaining the Law Stone, Su Xiao suddenly said this to everyone. Lin Yi was not surprised by this, because before they left, Su Xiao had said in the communication channel that he was going to look for the ruins of the Law Destruction. Originally, Su Xiao wanted to invite Lin Yi to go with him, but was rejected by Lin Yi. The ruins of the Law Destruction are Su Xiao's exclusive ruins. Su Xiao will definitely gain something if he goes there, but Lin Yi may not gain anything if he goes there. "Hey? What are you going to do?" The Seventh Prince asked curiously. "I'm going to the outside of the God's Wall. It is said that there are ruins of the Law Destruction there. I have to go and see." Su Xiao did not pretend to be mysterious, but told the Seventh Prince his plan without reservation. The Seventh Prince and the old king are completely different people. The old king is full of conspiracies and tricks, and likes to go around in circles when he says anything. If you don't keep a few more eyes open when dealing with such people, you may get cheated without knowing what's going on. But the Seventh Prince is different. His own strength is strong enough, and he doesn't bother to play those crooked routines. He prefers to be straightforward and open, and likes to make things clear in everything. Although sometimes you may wonder if this person has some problems with his brain, in most cases, the affinity of this kind of person will make people around him unconsciously attracted and slowly stand by his side.
With the ability and life span of the Seventh Prince, maybe in a few hundred years, he will become another Xia Emperor. "Oh, I really hope you can continue to be my Iron Hand. I have to say that this position set up by the old man is really useful. I will definitely set up such a position in the future." A look of disappointment appeared on the Seventh Prince's face, but he quickly adjusted his mentality. He then asked: "Do you need me to help you with anything on this trip?" Su Xiao waved his hand and said: "No need, the area outside the God's Wall is not your sphere of influence, if I go alone, I will be less targeted." The Seventh Prince nodded: "Okay, I won't take back the Golden Lion Mark that the old man gave you. If you need help later, go find Heslet, the old guy should still be fighting those stinky guys from the Undead Clan at the God's Wall." "Um." Before leaving, the seventh prince gave Su Xiao a map outside the Wall of God. This map was not a treasure of the kingdom, but was drawn by the seventh prince himself based on his own memory and understanding. Because of this, the map looks a bit difficult to identify, but for Su Xiao, this has been a big help. Having a map and not having a map are two completely different things. After leaving the Wall of God, the Seventh Prince's map will definitely play a huge role. Later, Lin Yi also said goodbye to the Seventh Prince. The seventh prince said with some reluctance: "Cousin, your seventh brother and I are in need of someone right now. Why do you have to leave?" For Lin Yi, the Seventh Prince was really reluctant to part with him. There are really not many people he can speak his mind to now, half of them are the fourth princess, and one is Lin Yi. After Lin Yi left, the seventh prince felt that he would not be able to find anyone who could speak his mind to him. Lin Yi waved his hand and said: "Hey, I just want to go out for a walk. When the old man was alive, I never had time to go out. Now that I finally have free time, I definitely want to go out and walk around. By the way, old man Where is his tomb? I want to pay my respects before leaving." The seventh prince replied: "It's still in the same place, the Royal Cemetery. You should be able to see it when you get there." With that said, the seventh prince handed Lin Yi a hand card. With this thing, Lin Yi could directly call on the local army no matter where he was in the Kingdom of Saint Sodin. It can be seen from this that the seventh prince really regards Lin Yi as one of his own. After Lin Yi left the Kingdom Council Hall, he came to the Royal Cemetery. This place is in sharp contrast to the bustling and bustling royal capital, making it seem particularly quiet. After all, this is the resting place of kings throughout the ages, so naturally no one will break in at will. In the entire cemetery, apart from Lin Yi, there were only royal guards patrolling around. Bayherbert's tomb was not difficult to find. It didn't take much effort for Lin Yi to find the newly piled grave. This was the burial place of the old king. Looking at the sacrifices placed in front of the tomb, Lin Yi smiled and said softly: "Now, you can finally have a good sleep." "Reincarnation Paradise, return." (End of chapter)
