I maintain law and order in the feudal world

After that, the journey went smoothly, mainly because three security robots led the team. Although there were many evil spirits along the way, they did not pose too much threat to them. In the next five days, they rescued 15 people one after another, and they became more and more As they got closer to Antu City, the evil spirits around them became denser.

Today they finally arrived at Antu City, and they saw the gate of Antu City from a distance. With Xiaoqi’s information, 069 arranged for 071 to protect the others. He and 070 went to the gate of Antu City to check the situation, and they set off Wang Xu also followed them during the time. As the captain of the team, it was impossible for Wang Xu to continue to hide at such a time.

The situation in Antu City was different from that of Cambay City. There were not many evil spirits outside the city gate. They killed a few of them and came to the city gate, only to find that the city gate was closed and blocked from the inside.

Wang Xu called out, "Is there anyone inside?"

"Bang bang bang-"

Following his words, there was a bang bang bang sound from the huge city gate. Wang Xu couldn't help but took a step back and asked in surprise, "What's going on?"

069 said: "The evil spirits on the other side of the city gate are knocking on the gate."

Wang Xu's face turned green, and he couldn't help taking a step back. The city gate in front of him trembled from the impact, and the sound of the impact became louder and louder. Obviously, if this continues, the city gate might be smashed, so he stepped back a few more times. Bu Bu said in a low voice, "You two, what should we do now? It seems that most of Antu City is really full of evil spirits. Shall we go in?"

069: "There may be survivors inside."

Wang Xu swallowed and said, "But...we can't get in either."

In fact, Wang Xu didn't want to go in either. Just listening to the movement at the door, he knew that the situation in the city was definitely not optimistic. There were only three of them, did they go in and seek death?

069 looked at Wang Xu and said, "We can go in, but you can't."

070 also said to Wang Xu: "You go back and wait for news from us."

Wang Xu straightened his chest, summoned up his courage and said, "No, how can we only let the two of you go in, and those who come out together should go back together, and we—"

Before he finished speaking, two security robots quickly climbed up the city wall. Wang Xu looked up at them in a daze, then looked at the straight city wall, swallowed a mouthful of saliva and murmured: "I really can't go up." .”

At this time, 069 and 070 were already standing on the city wall, looking around, the street below was full of people, these people were walking around unconsciously on the street, the evil spirits under the city gate seemed to have spotted the two people on the city wall, rushed The two let out a loud roar.

——Antu City has become a ghost town.

Yingcheng, which is behind Campbell City and Antu City, is still a peaceful and lively scene. Just this morning, a man in ragged clothes stumbled to the gate of Yingcheng City. The guard team at the gate shouted loudly. The man was full of horror and said: "Evil ghost, the evil ghost is coming! The evil ghost is coming!"

After he finished speaking, countless ferocious ghosts swarmed behind him——

The same scene happened at the same scene in several big cities near the border of Insmolli in Oselene. Countless carrier pigeons flew away from these cities, and the news finally spread, and the five border cities of Oselene The evil spirits have attacked!

"What ghost? It's ridiculous!"

In the palace of Banlai, the king threw the letter in his hand to the ground, and he said angrily: "The orphan is the destiny! The gods bless Auselain, how could there be evil spirits! These people spread false news, damn it!" !"

"Your Majesty, forgive me! Your Majesty, forgive me!"

The servants and ministers knelt down together, their hearts were extremely terrified. Since the king started to recover, his temper has become more and more irritable. If something goes wrong, he will kill people and behead him. He died in the palace in just ten days. I hired more than 20 servants and several ministers who served the king personally, and now all the servants are trembling, for fear that they will move without saying a word.

The king seemed to be really out of breath, and he blushed and scolded angrily: "What evil spirit? What evil spirit? Gu's body is recovering, and Osellein should be thriving!"

A minister said cautiously, "Your Majesty, I dare you, maybe we can send a team to check the authenticity of the news before making a decision."

"What are you looking at! Don't look at it, I know it's fake, it's absolutely fake! I still want to ask Gu to borrow gunpowder and troops, just dreaming! I think they are going to rebel! Pass Gu's order, and anyone in Banlai People are not allowed to support the five border cities!"

Everyone: "Yes."

When the meeting was over, the ministers gathered together with sad faces, and someone said, "General An, what should we do now? There are reports of evil spirits attacking the three cities. It is said that it won't last long. We got support, but the king—”

"That's right, it sounds absurd at first glance, but since the news has come from the three cities, there must be a reason for the incident, and we must send someone to investigate!"

An Cheng only said: "Without the king's order, I cannot send troops."

The ministers sighed, and someone asked again: "Master Hou, the city guards are all over the country, have you got any news?"

Hou Fu shook his head.

I don't know who said: "This is not a small matter. The city guards have not been able to spread the news. There must be someone behind the scenes. If we continue to delay, we may be in danger of destroying the country."

In the palace at this time, the servant walked into the bedroom cautiously, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the national teacher asks to see you."

The king □□ drunk with his upper body on his back, and asked drunkenly, "National teacher? What is he doing here?"

The servant carefully said: "The national teacher said that he has a way to deal with the evil spirits in the five border cities."

The king narrowed his eyes: "Oh, let him in."

Not long after, the national teacher came in and saluted respectfully: "Your Majesty, I am very worried when I heard about the evil spirits on the border. Your Majesty's health has fully recovered, and you are the King of Osserraine again." , all evil should not invade, how could there be evil ghosts?"

"Whoa-"

The wine glass was thrown to the ground and shattered, and the king slapped the table in agreement: "The national teacher is right, the solitary is invulnerable to evil, how could there be evil spirits in Oxelin, they must be deceiving the solitary!"

The national teacher bowed his head and said: "It is possible, but what I am most worried about is the king's body. As the king of Oserlain, the turmoil of the whole country is connected with the king. I am afraid that this time the evil spirit is right. A foretaste of the king's body."

He was on the verge of death and regained his health, especially now that his energy is even worse than when he was in his prime. The king began to attach great importance to his body. Hearing this sentence, he stopped drinking, sat up straight and asked drunkenly: "Master, what do you mean by this?"

The national teacher said: "The five border cities are located in the north of our country, and the north is water, corresponding to the ears, feet, and perineum of the king's body. I am afraid that this may indicate that the king's heirs... will be hindered."

"presumptuous!"

The national teacher knelt on the ground and said: "Please forgive me, my lord. This is just my conclusion from the analysis of this matter. The truth is still unknown, but I dare to ask the king to go to the altar and use the edge stone to communicate with the gods. Since the gods have extended the king's His lifespan will naturally not be a hindrance to the king!"

"Your Majesty, this matter is related to your holy body. I would rather believe it than believe it!"

This can be said to have reached the king's heart. Now he doesn't care about anything, the only thing he cares about is his own body. After dying, he didn't make him look down on life and death, but made him more obsessed with living. So he Said: "The national teacher is right, go to the sacrificial altar when you are isolated."

"My lord," the national teacher said, "Shangtong Tianshen needs to be at noon, please wait until noon."

On the second day, the worried ministers came to the court meeting, thinking that even if they risked their lives, they would ask the king to distribute supplies and send troops to aid the five border cities. , the king at the top suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, and everyone below panicked. Amidst their shouts, the king fell straight to the ground.

At noon that day, news came out from the palace that the king had passed away after exhausting his vitality because of the evil spirit.

At such a time of chaos, the matter urgently needs to be dealt with by the king, but the king has passed away, and the ministers of the whole dynasty have no leader. At this time, the issue is no longer the five border cities, but who will be the king.

Some people say that it is wrong to select people from the offshoots of the royal family, and some people retort that it is not appropriate. People from the offshoots of the royal family have never been trained according to the standards of the crown prince. How can they take on such an important task? The precedent for the succession of the throne, inappropriate and inappropriate.

Some people say that Shen Bilai, the son of the Eldest Princess, is allowed to inherit the throne. The son of the Eldest Princess is extremely capable. He alone controls the shipping, water department, and school of the entire Othelain. Surnamed Shen, only half of the blood of the royal family is on his body, and his eyes are not even blue, so he is not considered a royal family at all!

This is neither that nor that, I don't know who said: "Then it's better to be His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness has been the candidate for the crown prince since he was a child, needless to say in terms of ability."

"But His Royal Highness is not the son of the king, let alone the royal family."

"So what? For more than 20 years, we have treated His Highness as the crown prince, and we can just pretend that what happened more than ten days ago didn't happen."

The ministers were silent. At first glance, these words seemed reasonable, but when you think about it carefully, it is too unreasonable. It is really surprising that there is such an operation as if what happened did not happen. Eye-opening.

While they were arguing endlessly, a person came in, and it was His Highness who was supposed to be in the prison. He was dressed in snow-white thin clothes, went to the ministers and knelt down with a plop, and said, "Gong Heng!" I knew that I was not qualified to think about the throne any more, and I didn't dare to have any thoughts that I shouldn't have. However, Heng was alone in the prison, and when he heard the evil spirits appearing on the border, and then he heard the news of his father's death, he felt unbearably sad. I came here specially to see my father off for the last time."

After he finished speaking, he kowtowed a few times in the direction of the throne, and when he raised his head again, everyone found that his head had been smashed, and their hearts were moved. Gong Heng said again: "Although the father has passed away, Osei Rein is the world of the father, and now the border is in danger, Gong Heng only hopes that the adults can discuss a good strategy as soon as possible, and stabilize the world of the father!"

What he said was sincere and reasonable, and seeing the blood on Gong Heng's forehead dripping onto his face, the courtiers couldn't say anything to reprimand him for going to court as a sinner.

In the silence, a minister sighed and said: "The hall... makes sense, but there are no soldiers like us now, and there are no generals. Scattered soldiers can't do anything unless someone is willing to stand up."

When saying this, many ministers looked at An Cheng and Hou Fu, and only these two were qualified to make a temporary decision.

But An Cheng and Hou Fu closed their eyes and rested their minds. An old god was there, and no one took over. They made decisions on behalf of the king without the appointment of the king. Now there is no new king, so no one cares, but if there is a new king The superior, the first one to tidy up is probably this person.

Everyone knows this, so no one wants to take the risk.

In the silence, someone whispered: "The situation is urgent now, and there is no reason to discuss the matter of the throne for a while. In my opinion, it is better to let His Royal Highness take over temporarily?"

"Ridiculous!" A minister scolded, and as soon as he spoke, seeing Gong Heng kneeling in the middle, the minister swallowed the curse in his mouth, and said: "Gong Heng is no longer a member of the royal family, how can he be temporarily replaced?" Your Majesty handles business!"

"This... I don't think it's impossible. The king left in a hurry and didn't leave a word. We discussed it for a long time and couldn't figure out why. There are also precedents in the past that non-royal officials acted on behalf of the king. Can't."

"Speaking of which, the most important thing now is the matter of the evil spirits in the five border cities. If it is not handled properly, the country will be ruined, so what else can we talk about?"

These words touched the hearts of all the ministers present, and it seems that there is no better way now. As for those royal families who came out after hearing the news, no one came out to stop them, so after more than ten days in prison, everyone His Royal Highness Gong Heng has returned to the peak of Oxelin's power.

After acting as the interim king, the first order he gave was to send people to the five border cities to investigate the real situation. That night when he returned to his original residence of the Great Highness, when he opened the door of the study, he saw a blond man sitting inside. He smiled and said, "Your Highness Ledo."

Leido stood up and cupped his hands: "Congratulations, Your Highness, no, you should be crowned king now."

Gong Heng waved his hand: "Your Majesty, the horoscope has not been written yet. I have to thank His Highness Lei Duo for his support behind this matter. His Highness Lei Duo will continue to support Gu in the future."

Leido smiled slightly: "It's natural, but please don't forget the agreement with me, Your Majesty."

Gong Heng smiled and said: "As long as I am in power, you can take the five border cities. I will send people to the five border cities to inquire about the news. When they come back, everyone in Osselin will know that the so-called evil spirits are just deliberately fabricated by someone. rumors."

Ledo bowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
