a183ss4509291 Chapter 160 "What do you mean" Nicole looked at His Majesty the Pope Corsica VI in front of her with a look of surprise in her eyes.
I couldn't help but glance back at the queen sitting behind her.
Corsica VI smiled faintly, he gently held the staff in his hand, wearing a white spotless robe, although he was just standing there, he seemed to look at the two women in front of him with a kind of overlooking gaze, and said lightly: "You heard it right.
On behalf of the Divine Cult of the Empire of Light, I would like to extend my greetings to His Majesty the future Emperor and wish Her Majesty the Empress good health and prosperity."
Nicole exclaimed: "Your Majesty, what do you mean, can I understand that the Divine Cult is willing to stand on Her Majesty's side?"
Corsica VI smiled meaningfully, but he didn't speak, and said lightly: "The Cult of God has never intervened in the power of the Empire, we are just a group of faithful believers in the gods, but if anyone wants to disobey the will of the gods, or subvert the authority of the Cult in the world, then the Cult will not sit idly by."
Nicole took a deep breath: "Your Majesty, you mean, Prince Barang" But Corsica VI stopped talking, just nodded slightly to Her Majesty the Empress, and then turned away.
The queen's face was a little surprised, she looked at Nicole, and said in a low voice: "Miss Nicole, His Majesty the Pope, will you really support us?"
Nicole pondered for a moment and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the Pope's words, of course, we can believe it, but we can't be unguarded."
Looking at the queen's blank expression, Nicole sighed and said in a low voice, "You should know about the Divine Sect of the Northern Continent."
In the Northern Continent, the authority of the Divine Cult is even above the kings of various countries because the Northern Roland Continent does not have a strong centralized power and the Bright Continent, because there is a powerful empire, the imperial power and the Divine Religion are almost neck and neck, and there is no situation where anyone is stronger than the other.
"What do you mean?"
Nicole nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Although the people of the Divine Cult keep saying that the temple of the Roland Continent is a heretic, but in fact, they hum in their hearts, they are not envious of the power of the temple in the north, and now the Imperial Power of the Bright Empire is fighting, and the prestige of the imperial power has been reduced to a minimum If the Divine Cult wants to expand their influence, is there a better time than now Prince Balang is ambitious and a person with a strong personality, if he succeeds to the throne, he will not be at the mercy of the Divine Religion, and you tell the truth, if it is your son who succeeds to the throne, Such a young child, after all, is much easier to manipulate." ` Prince Baran was at the palace of the Marquis of Caroline at this moment.
The old marquis's face was calm at the moment, and he said lightly: "Your Royal Highness, you must calm down now, even if the Pope has met the Empress, there is no god and religion that has never participated in the power struggle of the empire, even if they want to support it this time, there is no excuse, as long as you insist on the issue of inheritance, then His Majesty the Pope will not be able to mobilize the Flame Warrior Regiment to fight with us for their support, and he just wants to take the opportunity to make some benefits." ” Prince Balang nodded: "It's a pity that Mr.
Qiu's guy is now guarding the palace inch by inch, otherwise, just find a way to let the queen die, and all the problems will be solved."
Marquis Caroline smiled faintly: "Your Royal Highness, it's better not to do these things and use these means, after all, it's too obvious, even if it succeeds, it will spread in the future, it will affect your image Those nobles and wealthy families don't say it on their lips, and their hearts may not be loyal to you Do you want a complete empire or a broken empire" After a pause, a strange smile appeared on his face, and he suddenly said: "Your Royal Highness, there is one thing to do immediately" "What" The old marquis smiled slightly: "Among the medical officers of the palace, there must be people from His Royal Highness, although His Majesty the Emperor's body has always been not very good, but this time he suddenly fell into a coma, presumably hehe" Prince Balang's face was gloomy, and he sneered: "Lord Marquis, you don't have to hide it so much, and now we are standing together, and there is no need to hide those things from you, the medical officer in the court, there is indeed my person, Abbasid XI's health, has always been bad, because for the past two years, he has eaten a little bit of what I specially prepared for him every day."
The muscles in the corners of the old marquis's eyes trembled slightly, but the expression on his face remained unchanged, and he said in a low voice: "Then, this matter must be done immediately, and the medical officer must get rid of this matter immediately, without leaving any handle, otherwise, your succession will be very dangerous."
Prince Balang frowned: "It's not difficult to get rid of that person immediately, it's just that we can't grasp the emperor's condition now, after all, those medical officers around him are not easy to buy, and I have successfully arranged such a person over the years." ” The old marquis showed a sneering look in his eyes: "You don't have to worry so much Since you have been arranging this matter for two years, then how is Your Majesty's health now, and there is no need for anyone to report what the Emperor eats, you know best in your heart, do you still need to worry about it, we just need to wait for Your Majesty once and then act immediately."
Prince Barang nodded.
The old marquis thought for a while, and said: "Now the queen is definitely more anxious than us, they are most anxious now, that is, they hope to immediately determine the status of the crown prince, and before the emperor dies, if the emperor dies, the position of the crown prince is still vacant, then you have an excuse to inherit the throne, so they will definitely make moves in the next two days, let's wait and deal with it."
Before Prince Barang could speak, someone from outside came in to report.
"An order came from the palace to summon all the nobles and officials of the imperial capital to meet in the Hall of Light tomorrow."
Prince Balang frowned: "Seeing the ceremony, the emperor has already been lying in a faint and died, how can I see it?"
The subordinate didn't speak, just stood there with his head bowed.
Marquis Caroline waved his hand and let him go down first, and then the old marquis smiled faintly: "That is naturally an order issued by Her Majesty the Empress in the name of the emperor According to the practice of the empire, before the emperor is dying, he naturally has to inform the ministers of his illness in order to prepare for the past few days, although the news has come out, but after all, there is no official announcement, this time I called everyone to go, I think, first, to announce that Your Majesty is probably about to die, and second, it is natural to officially announce that the queen is pregnant with the prince, In a good name, the position of the crown prince is set first, even if it can't be decided for a while, things must be put on the table, this is the idea of these two women."
"Hmph" Prince Balang's eyes became gloomy: "Is it so easy, I will immediately send troops to surround the palace, no matter how powerful Mr.
Langqiu is, he can't stop it."
The old marquis's face changed slightly, shook his head and said: "No, no matter what, now His Majesty the Emperor is not dead, the emperor is not dead, you immediately sent troops to surround the palace, that is a rebellion, besides, if you can kill them all in one fell swoop, it will be enough, if you let them run out, run to the south or northwest, ascend to the heights, and shout, gather local troops from all over the empire, that is the outbreak of a full-scale war in the empire, I dare to ask you, in terms of the appeal to the army, will those troops follow you, Prince Balang, or will they follow the tulip flag."
Prince Barang immediately ceased to speak.
He naturally understood in his heart that in terms of the appeal of the army, he was far inferior to the Tulip family, who had served as the marshals of the empire in the era, even if two of the four main army corps of the empire were already in his hands, he would never dare to start a war head-on The empire still has hundreds of thousands of local garrisons in various provinces, and in addition, although the Northern Legion and the Central Cavalry Legion are now on their side, it is because the legion commander is his own man.
But if there is a real war, whether those armies will follow them or not, whether they will obey the orders of the army commander, or not, is still two words Thinking of this, Prince Barang sighed, suddenly looked at the old marquis, smiled, and said, "Then according to what you said, will we go to the palace tomorrow?"
"Go" The old marquis smiled faintly: "Of course we want to go, in fact, they hope that we don't go, no one on the hall will object, and we can justifiably set the name of the child in the queen's womb, tomorrow we will naturally go, you must insist on the issue of inheritance tomorrow, and you can't let go, as for the question of the prince, an unborn baby, will those nobles trust him, tomorrow we just want to put the contradictions out and see who those ministers and nobles follow, so your attitude tomorrow must be tough, It doesn't matter if it's a little arrogant, tomorrow is the time to show your strength, let all aspects of the imperial capital understand your strength, and force them to choose which side to stand on" ` That night, on a certain street near the imperial palace in the imperial capital, by the moonlight, two figures, one large and one small, flashed from the side of the street.
"You guy, first deceived my horse, and now you trick me into coming out at night to run around with you, what the hell did you think?"
The other person laughed in a low voice: "Look at you, my curiosity can't help it, I said that I came to the emperor to have some interesting things to do, and you yourself heard me say interesting things, and now you can't hold your breath anymore." ” Tianlie snorted and said, "You guy is so strange, if it weren't for the fact that you are still a little interesting, you would have beaten you flat with one punch a long time ago."
The person next to him shrugged his shoulders: "It's not difficult for you to beat me, you are a strong person in the field, I'm afraid there are not many people in this world who you can't beat, but if you beat my old man, that interesting thing, I'm afraid you won't be able to see it" Tianlie looked like he was scratching his ears and cheeks, and scolded: "Lao Tzu obeyed you, hurry up and do what you want to do, I really don't know if you are a human or a ghost, you can see that Lao Tzu is a strong man in the field, but you open your mouth and close your mouth in the field, are you annoyed, is it not annoying Lao Tzu has two words in the field written on his head Hmph, even if you are not a strong person in the field, it is estimated that it is not much worse, since you entered the city, Lao Tzu has tested you several times, don't want to hide any strength in front of my Uncle Tianlie" The man grinned: "You're that kid's friend, and I happen to have a good relationship with that kid, if you really want to help that kid, shut up for me."
Tianlie rolled his eyes, but finally closed his mouth.
The street is not far from the palace, but the streets feel very quiet, and in the past, even at night, there are many soldiers from the police station patrolling back and forth.
But now the army inspected by the imperial capital has all been replaced by people from the Central Cavalry Corps.
In order to avoid unnecessary conflicts, Prince Barang ordered his troops to try not to approach the palace when they were on patrol.
And the royal guards of the palace, under Nicole's order, have also shrunk inside the palace to guard, try not to take a step out of the palace, to avoid unnecessary trouble, so now the streets around the palace have become a subtle buffer zone.
"This is it," the man smiled suddenly, and pointed to a house in front of him, and jumped into the fence with his body scurrying up.
Tianlie scolded, but he didn't dare to stop at his feet, and his body followed and rushed in.
This house is not big, but it looks like the decoration is not simple, and it seems that the status of the owner is not low, not to mention, living so close to the palace, presumably the identity of the master's family is not ordinary.
Tianlie and the man had just taken two steps, and the man suddenly whispered, "Well, it's weird" Tianlie also nodded, frowned, and said, "Why is there a smell of blood" He suddenly glanced at the person beside him, and said with a strange smile: "It won't be the trap set by you bastard to block Lao Tzu, if that's the case, Lao Tzu will screw your head off" The man gave him a blank look: "Shut up, you fat man, I really don't know what you have such a big head for." ” The two swaggered into the courtyard like this, without the slightest intention of hiding their figures, according to Tianlie's statement: "If someone notices, just kick it unconscious, Uncle Tianlie never does sneaky things" When I opened the door with the smell of blood, I immediately saw a corpse lying in front of me.
"What kind of person is this" Tianlie frowned: "You dragged me around the city at night, just to see a dead man?"

The man had a contemplative expression on his face and glanced back at Tian Lie: "This person is a medical officer in the palace.
Alas, I didn't expect it to be him, it seemed that my luck was really good, and I found a random one, and I actually found the ghost house arranged by Prince Balang. ” Tianlie shook his head: "What kind of inner ghost and outer ghost, what are you going to do?"
The man smiled slightly: "I'll tell you what I'm going to do, I'm going to sneak into the palace, planning to find a medical officer who can get close to the emperor, and then enter under his identity."
This guy is the person I'm looking for tonight, but I didn't expect to find him by such a coincidence.
Looking at his appearance, it seems that he was killed not long ago, alas, don't you understand that now the emperor is fine, and suddenly he is about to breathe, it must be Ba Lang's hands and feet that this guy has done, this medical officer is also angry now, most of it is a simple matter of Ba Lang killing people and destroying his mouth, my old man's mind turns around and understands that you have such a big head" Speaking of this, looking at Tianlie's annoyed expression, he finally stopped his mouth and changed his words: "Fatty, do you want to see me change something interesting for you" Tianlie snorted coldly.
The man smiled slightly: "Let me tell you, my current body was put together a few days ago, and I always feel that it is not very suitable, because these bodies are alas, but now this body is good, I just died, and it happened that my old man borrowed it for use."
At this, a strange laugh erupted from the man's mouth.
Tianlie had a strange look in his eyes: "What do you say, your current body is not your own" The man smiled slightly, and a strange light suddenly appeared on his body, and then the clothes on his body gradually shattered, and then the muscles on it fell softly and piece-by-piece Tianlie was dumbfounded, and he couldn't help but get goosebumps on his body, and immediately stood far away.
The man laughed continuously, and the muscles on his body gradually shook off, revealing a skeleton, but the bones were not as white as ordinary skeletons, but faintly flashed with a metallic luster.
Tianlie couldn't help but mutter: "Hell, what kind of weird thing are you, Lao Tzu has never seen such a variety like you" He couldn't help but scold: ", hell alive" The skeleton was finally fully revealed, and then his jaw trembled twice, looking at the broken body on the ground, a laugh came out of his mouth, and then he said: "Alas, after all, it took a lot of my old man's spiritual power to get the body, although it is a pity, but I had to give up after all, it is just an experiment." ” The skeleton turned to face Tianlie, who was stunned, and let out a strange laugh from his mouth: "Fatty, what are you looking at, what you are seeing now, but it has been the result of my old man's research for a long time, if it weren't for the physical energy of that demon dragon in the south, I really can't think of this good way to get a body for myself."
After saying that, the skeleton slammed towards the corpse of the palace medical officer lying on the ground, and then a strange light emanated from the entire skeleton, and the skeleton seemed to gradually turn transparent.
The skeleton slowly lay down against the corpse on the ground, and the entire skeleton seemed to be as transparent as air ` On a major road in the south, a mighty cavalry was rushing like a violent wind, and on a black horse in the lead, there was a young man with blond hair, his blue eyes flashed with anxious gaze, and countless heavily armed elite cavalry behind him followed quickly, everyone had a resolute expression, but there was a flash of excitement in his eyes The man on the horse was none other than Roddy, who had become Seth's appearance again.
In the middle of Mercedes, he couldn't help but gently stroke his face with one hand: "I really can't imagine that I will wear this mask again." a183ss4509291:
