On the streets of Wangdu, Su Xiao and Boubo Wang walked slowly, each holding a fruit that looked like a peach in their hands.
?One person and one dog each bit off a large mouthful of flesh in almost divine synchronization.
Su Xiao was very hungry, and so was Boubo Wang. From last night to now, Su Xiao was either fighting with people, or on the way to fight with people. He had no time to eat or even drink saliva. .
At ten o'clock in the evening, he finally finished fighting with people, but he still didn't have time, because he was going to a small village to find out the mastermind behind the scenes.
After that, the mastermind behind the scenes was handed over to the old king. He thought he could rest for a while, but who knew that he would visit those princes or princesses soon.
When Su Xiao finished all this, it was already 3 o'clock in the morning. When he visited the last princess, that princess was very nervous and thought that Su Xiao was looking for her for a fling.
At 3 o'clock in the morning, of course there will be no shops open on the streets of the capital, so Su Xiao got some fruits to satisfy his hunger. What I have to say is that the fruits in this world look a bit ugly, but the taste is not bad.
"Wow."
Boobwang called out, which meant: "Master, I want to eat meat."
crunch, crunch, crunch
Su Xiao chewed the pulp in his mouth. Although the taste of this thing is good, but with his physique, at most it can relieve hunger slightly.
"Be patient."
Su Xiao spoke vaguely, and Boubo Wang sighed.
"Unsurprisingly, the old king will host a banquet later."
Su Xiao has been running around all night, and now he returns to the palace at 3 o'clock in the morning. If the old king doesn't say something, it will be too unreasonable. You know, after Su Xiao solved the "little princess murder case", the old king didn't even give a verbal reward .
Of course Su Xiao doesn't want verbal rewards. According to his judgment, the old king will not forget this matter.
Hearing Su Xiao's words, Boubo Wang, who was already so hungry that his steps were trivial, had a lot of energy, which meant: "Really?"
"Of course, if there is no banquet, we will turn against him."
Su Xiao smiled, he wasn't joking, if the old king didn't offer a reward at this time, it meant that the old king had already begun to suspect Su Xiao.
Once this happens, Su Xiao will kill the old king and a large group of princes and princesses before being emptied of power.
When Su Xiao returned to the palace to return to his command, the old king did not hold a banquet, but rested on the throne in the chamber.
Su Xiao looked at the old king sitting on the throne. At this time, the old king gave him a very strange feeling, that is, he was so angry that he might die at any time.
Just when Su Xiao thought that the old king was going to kick his legs, the old king's eyes opened, and the feeling of being angry disappeared.
"Have you dealt with it? Cough cough cough"
The old king let out a dry cough, his face flushed.
"It's been dealt with."
Su Xiao felt that the state of the old king was very wrong.
The old king took out a clay bottle from his arms with trembling hands. He poured some gray powder from the bottle, poured it on the position of the tiger's mouth with his left hand, raised his left hand in front of his mouth and nose, and took a deep breath.
"Hoo~"
The old king's breathing became much smoother, and his flushed face gradually recovered.
"Thank you for your hard work. I originally wanted to help you host a banquet, but I don't seem to be able to hold on for too long."
The old king waved to Su Xiao, signaling Su Xiao to come forward.
Su Xiao doesn't know what the old king wants to do now, but just now, he felt that the old king's life is not long.
"Iron Hand, among my heirs, who do you look up to the most?"
The old king's eyes were bloodshot, and he shouldn't have had a good rest in the past few days.
"Prince."
Su Xiao knew who the old king supported most, so he chose a relatively safe prince.
"Valentin is also optimistic about him."
The old king smiled. The Valentine he was talking about was Consul Joe Valentine.
"Heslet is not in the capital, whoever you and Valentine support, or who you are willing to assist, can take over the kingship as quickly as possible."
The old king turned his eyes and looked at the side hall of the chamber: "Valentine, come out."
With a creak, a wooden door was pushed open, and Consul Joe Valentine walked into the chamber. This fearful power minister was tired, and he probably hadn't had much rest in the past two days.
"You and the Iron Hand made the same choice."
The old king signaled the consul Joe Valentine to come forward, and Joe Valentine bowed to the old man.In front of the king.
"Cough cough cough"
The old king began to cough again and again, his hands shook, and the clay bottle in his hand fell to the ground, Joe Valentine
Quickly rushed forward, picked up the clay bottle, and poured the gray powder into the hands of the old king.
"Hoo, hoo, hoo"
The old king gasped.
"I used to use the medicine once every 5 days, but now I have to use it at least 30 times a day. It is useless when people are old."
The old king laughed a few times dryly, while Joe Valentine bowed his head aside, not daring to apologize.
"How long can it last?"
Su Xiao opened his mouth, and when he heard this sentence, the corners of Joe Valentine's eyes twitched.
"I maynot make it through tonight."
The old king gave Su Xiao a wink, the meaning is obvious, as long as Joe Valentine's expression is slightly different, then Su Xiao will immediately kill Joe Valentine on the spot.
"Your MajestyYour Majesty?"
As if struck by lightning, Joe Valentine looked at the old king in astonishment, his bloodshot eyes turned red, and tears welled up from his eye sockets.
The old king stared at Joe Valentine's eyes. After a few seconds, the old king felt a little guilty. If Joe Valentine was wrong, he would ask Su Xiao to get rid of Joe Valentine.
Judging from the current situation, Joe Valentine is a loyal minister. When the old king said that he would not survive tonight, Joe Valentine's eye circles immediately turned red. The old king had seen countless people, and he could see that Joe Valentin Lundin was heartbroken.
"Valentin, at my age, life and death are quite normal."
The old king wanted to raise his hand to pat Joe Valentine's shoulder, but he didn't even have the strength to raise his hand now, and the secret medicine he took three days ago was rapidly failing.
"Your Majesty"
Joe Valentine knelt on one knee, tears dripping on the smooth marble floor, Joe Valentine recalled the past in his mind, when he was 30 years old, he was just a subordinate of a great nobleman.
"This man is not bad. Although he is ugly, he is capable. Send him to the capital."
This is what the old king said to the great nobleman. Joe Valentine, who was kneeling on the ground at the time, was a little apprehensive, but in the following ten years, he was full of gratitude and grateful for the old king's kindness.
"I'm 65 years old. I have so many shit to deal with every day. Of course my body can't bear it."
The old king was not afraid of dying, but faced it calmly.
"Valentine, go and call the prince."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Joe Valentine wiped away his tears, turned around and walked out of the chamber. When Joe Valentine left the chamber, the old king looked at Su Xiao.
"This is my choice, and it is also your choice. Although it is against the rules, the rules are set by people."
The old king still looked half dead, but Su Xiao felt that the old lion was very wrong
