Reincarnation Paradise

Chapter 1156 Beginning
The old king arrived, and the banquet hall immediately fell silent.

"Father."

"Father."

A total of three princes and a princess greeted them. They were the eldest prince, the third prince, the seventh prince, and the second princess.

Except for the sixth princess, the four most favorable competitors all arrived in the capital. The reason why the sixth princess didn't come was not because of the long distance, but because there was something wrong with her territory. She would come tomorrow at the earliest. Or maybe the day after tomorrow.

The old king looked at the four children in front of him, and the surrounding officials were silent.

Ten seconds later, the old king waved his hand, indicating that the four princes and princesses could go down.

Su Xiao was looking at the four princes or princesses. The eldest prince is nothing special. The mustache on his chin is an obvious sign. The only feeling he gives people is that he is gentle and polite. He is in the middle of a large group of officials. The stars hold the moon.

The third prince was wearing light armor, and his expression was slightly gloomy. His age was similar to that of the eldest prince, but he gave the impression that he was iron-blooded and unambiguous.

The Seventh Prince is a handsome and personable guy. Unlike the previous two princes, he is only 28 years old, so he is flirting with his sister in the banquet hall. Of course, this flirting is just an abbreviation, the full name is flirting with his own sister. Now the banquet In the hall, apart from officials and wealthy businessmen, there are a bunch of old men. There are only two young girls, which are the two princesses.

The second princess is sitting on the edge. Although she is not young, she has a beautiful appearance. There are also several officials beside her who are courteous, trying to make a good impression. As for 'standing in line', it is not yet possible.

Today, the old king is not the protagonist of this banquet, these four people are.

The old king signaled the servants and guards behind him to retreat. On this occasion, the officials in the banquet hall did not need to salute the old king.

Holding a glass of wine, the old king walked slowly in the banquet hall, like an old lion patrolling his territory.

"His Majesty."

"Slow down, Your Majesty"

"His Majesty……"

Wherever the old king went, the atmosphere would become lively. The old king's attitude towards those officials was not close, but he was not alienated either.

Soon, the old king came to the seats where Su Xiao and the other four were seated. Seeing the old king walking slowly, Heslet, the head of the Kingdom Army, shrank his neck. He is the only person who is not afraid of anything today. It is the old king.

"Your Majesty the King."

Consul Joe Valentine hurriedly stood up and ran to the old king to help him, vividly and exquisitely interpreting the image of a dog leg.

Su Xiao sat still, and the same was true for the financial officer of the Kingdom, Rowan Harvey, who seemed to be drinking too much, while the head of the Kingdom Army, Heslet, was looking around, looking for an opportunity to escape.

With the help of Joe Valentine, the old king came to the vicinity of the three and sat in the position before Joe Valentine.

"Heslet, do you want to slip away when you see me coming?"

The old king spoke without any haste.

"How...how is it possible, Your Majesty, you are worrying too much."

"Sit here honestly. If you dare to slip away early today, I will break all three of your legs."

"Yes Yes."

Heslet, who was dripping with cold sweat on his forehead, nodded repeatedly, while Rowan Harvey secretly turned his head to the side, with a mean smile on his face.

"Rowan, how did that matter go?"

The old king seemed to have noticed Rowan Harvey's smirk, so he was also picked out.

"Your Majesty, except for the real property, the property of Elvi Anthony has basically been confiscated, among which there are..."

The old king raised his hand to signal that he didn't need to continue talking.

"Whoever dares to make trouble in the capital, you four will crush him to ashes."

The seemingly unintentional sentence of the old king actually contains many meanings, the most obvious meaning is to let the four people temporarily unite the power system.

Four people stood or sat beside the old king, and the four held different positions, including the dog leg (Joe Valentine who was in charge of managing officials), and Rowan Harvey who was in charge of financial management. The old king loved Heslett, the head of the Kingdom Army, and as for Su Xiao's Iron Hand, he only needed to be responsible for killing people, which was simple and rude.

The old king didn't go to sit in the first place, so there was no one in that separate seat. It was the highest seat, which represented power as well as loneliness.

The old king seemed to be tired of this kind of loneliness, and he would abdicate in a short time, so he came to share a table with Su Xiao and the four of him, and exchanged cups with the four of his most trusted people. It looked like he was going to die soon.

The atmosphere in the banquet hall gradually became lively. After a few glasses of wine, the faces of the old king, Rowan Harvey, and Joe Valentine turned red. The three of them were just ordinary people.

Su Xiao and Heslet's expressions remained unchanged. This kind of low-alcohol fruit wine was nothing to Su Xiao, and it was very difficult to get drunk.

While several people were pushing glasses and changing glasses, a knight in armor walked quickly into the banquet hall, went straight to the old king, and whispered something to the old king.

After the old king heard the knight's secret words, his expression didn't change at all, he just let the knight back down.

"Your Highness..."

Joe Valentine sensed that something was wrong, so he tried in a low voice.

"Charlene was killed."

The old king's voice was not high, and there was basically no emotion on his face.

"Little princess..."

The head of the Royal Army, Heslet, was just about to stand up, when an arm was pressed on his shoulder, it was Rowan Harvey.

"Heslet, calm down."

Rowan Harvey lowered his eyes, leaned over the old king, and said something in a low voice.

"Well, then I will leave it to you, and this matter will be dealt with as soon as possible."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The financial officer of the kingdom, Rowan Harvey, got up and walked out of the banquet hall. He still had important matters to deal with, and even if the little princess was killed, it would not be his turn to investigate. The old king had professionals around him, such as Iron hand.

"Your Majesty, do you need to block the capital?"

Consul Joe Valentine also whispered to the old king. At this time, there was no trace of drunkenness on his face. As for the blockade of the royal capital he said, it was actually blocking other officials from entering and leaving the royal capital. Others could not do this, but Consul Joe Valentine can do it.

"Seal until... tomorrow morning."

The old king agreed, and Joe Valentine got up and walked out of the banquet hall. At this time, the officials and wealthy businessmen all saw the clue. The old king was still present, and his two cronies actually left first?It doesn't make sense.

"Heslet, you start now and go to the front line."

"As ordered."

Heslet didn't ask about the cause. The old king definitely had a purpose in issuing such an order at this time. As for what it is, Heslet has become accustomed to "following orders", which is also the main reason why he can hold military power.

Heslet also got up and left, and he went straight to the frontline battlefield, which means that he will have nothing to do with this power struggle. The person who lost the most is the third prince, and Heslet is supporting the third prince .
