Chapter 1215.2: Astounding Efficiency
Only five princes and princesses had the right to be near the king at such a time. The first was the eldest prince with astounding financial resources, the third prince with serious army support, the seventh prince, a candidate from the holy warriors, the second princess who looked white and fluffy, and the sixth princess with extreme style.
With the exception of the sixth princess, Su Xiao had seen other princes and princesses. The sixth princess was wearing a black dress, she looked to be around 20 years old, but she was actually 27. She was a real beauty, a femme fatale with a gorgeous smile. It was rumored that she liked to feel the eyes of powerful people on her.
— Father, Iron Hand has come to see you so late, does he have any good news? The eldest prince asked. He was sitting closest to the king, and the smile on his face looked gentle.
— Perhaps, " the king himself didn't expect the Iron Hand to bring him any good news. The incident had occurred about ten hours ago, and it seemed to have been carefully planned.
Finding evidence so quickly was simply impossible.
— Perhaps Iron Hand had come to ask his father for help? I learned a little about what happened during the day. The sixth princess 'voice was very clear," This is probably all set up by the undead. Whenever her eyes looked at a certain prince or princess, her interlocutors immediately looked away from her, because in the eyes of others, she was a mad dog. Although she was beautiful, her temper was too bad.
*Boom*
The doors to the assembly hall swung open. The eldest Prince, the third Prince, and the others were startled and thought that it wasn't Iron Hand who had come here, but an assassin, but the king only rubbed his forehead.
He was already used to it.
— Iron hand, aren't you resting at this late hour? the king's tone was formal because of the presence of "outsiders." Normally, he would have just asked how the case was progressing, but he couldn't be so casual right now.
— Su Xiao's reply surprised the princes and princesses. This answer sounded too casual. All of them immediately looked at the king, but the king's expression didn't change at all.
Perhaps he was already used to this attitude.
At this moment, the eldest Prince, the third Prince, the seventh prince, the second princess, and the sixth princess were all very excited. They understood that the king didn't trust his four acolytes the most, but in fact only two, Iron Hand and Huslet, so if they could get Iron Hand's support...
— This is the one behind the creation of this plan, " Su Xiao said, and threw Luper forward.
At this point, Luper still looked like a typical farmer.
— This is - " the king frowned. He felt that such a person was unlikely to create such a good plan, but he quickly realized that this person was most likely an undead in disguise.
— This is Luper, the undead.
— Luper, " the king said in surprise, and slowly rose from his throne.
— Father, be careful... " The eldest prince also stood up, to which the king waved his hand.
— Luper created this plan, and was assigned three known assistants in total, Dannika, Saja, and Elduo. Yesterday, the young princess was killed by the commander of the Royal Guard, Karen, and the Queen drank poison to stop me. All of this was meant to distract me so that the trio could carry out an assassination attempt in the banquet hall, but their plan failed, " Su Xiao briefly told them everything he knew. Since the king himself clearly knew something about the case from his own sources, some of the omitted details he could insert into the story himself.
Listening to Su Xiao, the seventh Prince opened and closed his mouth. He was shocked by the effectiveness of the Iron Hand. In less than 12 hours after the incident, all those who took part in the plan were revealed, including the Tributary, a notorious undead.
— Where is the Tributary? "of course, the king knew who the Tributary was, sometimes these undead creatures kept him up at night.
— In the next world.
— His assistants?
— In the next world. I'll move their bodies to the palace early tomorrow morning.
— All right, " the king said, leaning back in his throne and taking a deep breath.
The princes and princesses exchanged glances. Today, they finally understood why Iron Hand possessed such privileges.
Its effectiveness was too terrifying.
Today, they understood why the Iron Hand position was needed at all. Although this title did not give a particularly good position, it did not give the financial and real power with which Iron Hand could control officials, and because of the focus of his work, the risks were too high, since Iron Hand would constantly have to offend powerful people ... However, it was Iron Hand that the king trusted the most. During the battle for the throne, as soon as all these princes and princesses do something outrageous, for example, they decide to seek help from the undead to eliminate their opponents, it is the Iron Hand that will eventually eliminate them immediately, leaving them with no chance of survival.
— There's something else. The treasurer of the kingdom, Rowan Harvey, has committed high treason, " Su Xiao announced a truly explosive piece of news that caused the room to fall dead silent.
