His laughter was like a rotting crow, indescribably eerie.
If Li Yao was really a cultivator and a reformer, and had any ambitions for supreme power, he would definitely be horrified.
"It's useless.
Even if you can wipe out all the four Elector families and come to power to rule the empire, it's useless.
By then, you will have to face all the problems I faced today, and you will have to eat until I have had enough.
The pain!”
Dongfang Wang's eyes were full of strong sarcasm and heartfelt hatred, "There are hundreds of worlds, each of which has its own interests; there are tens of thousands of resource planets, and all the immortal cultivators are secretly fighting against you, and they are fighting against you."
Your pretense is to seek benefits for yourself; except Apart from you, no one cares about the fate of the empire.
Even you yourself will transform under the erosion of power and soon become unrecognizable and bloated.
In the end, like me today, you will watch yourself.
Swallowed by the sea of stars, heading towards destruction!
"When the time comes, hahahaha, then I will watch you from the depths of the Nine Netherworld and see how you repeat the same mistakes and struggle to your death, hahahahahaha!"
Dongfang Wang laughed so hard that he was out of breath, and then coughed violently, coughing up a large black blood clot, or maybe it was not a blood clot, but fragments of the internal organs.
Li Yaozhen was worried that he would suddenly die laughing while smiling, so he hurriedly said: "Prime Minister Dongfang, don't get excited.
Let's talk slowly if you have anything to say.
In fact, I personally agree with your point of view very much.
I think that both the reformists and the four major families no before They are just going to perish in different ways.
At most, one dies a little faster, and the other dies a little slower, but in the end, there is no escape from death!
What you just said is so profound, it really enlightens me.
Suddenly enlightened!"
Dongfang Wang was stunned, and after being stunned for a long time, he trembled his lips: "...What, you, you are the 'Vulture Li Yao', aren't you a reformist?"
"Well, I am a relatively progressive young man among the reformists.
I can be considered a 'reformist of the reformists'."
Li Yaodao, "My identity is not the point.
The point is that these air-to-air theories are too vague.
It is useless to talk about them in long words.
Everyone is very busy.
If you don't have anything useful, why don't you just do this first?
I will I won’t bother you and go and die slowly.
By the way, you are the former prime minister of the empire.
If you have any last words, I can help you take them out.”
Dongfang Wang's eyes rolled around and around, as if he was carefully considering Li Yao's identity and the meaning of his words.
However, in his current situation, he had no bargaining chips at all, and he had no second choice except trusting Li Yao.
"etc!"
Dongfang Wang breathed hard and reluctantly straightened his back.
A faint electric light flashed in his eyes.
The 1% charm of the former "iron-blooded prime minister" was once again filled into the almost withered body.
"Tell me, vulture Li Yao."
Dongfang Wang looked at Li Yao eagerly, "For you, which one is more important, Li Linghai or the empire?"
Li Yao looked directly at Dongfangwang and said without hesitation: "I am a true patriot.
Naturally, the empire is more important.
No matter how unbearable the empire is today, I don't want to see it fall apart.
If the empire collapses, it will definitely cause more disasters."
Great chaos, as you just said, human civilization is divided into dozens or hundreds of small countries, conquering and destroying each other, and this does not take into account the factors of the Holy Alliance!
"Therefore, it is precisely because Her Royal Highness the Queen is the leader of the Reformists that I am loyal to her, and because you four Electoral Prince families first created the 'Blood Alliance Incident' in an attempt to completely kill the Reformists, we had no choice but to fight back with all our might. , and you are your enemy, Prime Minister Dongfang!”

Dongfang Wang sneered a few times and asked again: "You personally rescued General Lei Chenghu, right?"
Li Yao nodded: "Yes, I was the one who single-handedly entered the Divine Power Prison and rescued Liaohai Hou Lei Chenghu!"
Dongfang Wang's eyes became brighter and brighter, his thinking became clearer and clearer, and his voice became louder and more stable than before: "Okay, even if I die, there is something I must let you know.
Please help me tell Lei General."
Li Yao was refreshed and knew that the key was coming.
He hurriedly looked towards Dongfang and saw that soft spiritual energy was flowing into his body.
He injected him with a medical potion, temporarily delaying the collapse of his body and mind: "Prime Minister Dongfang, please say, I am all ears and swear an oath to help you bring your message to General Lei Chenghu."
"Okay, please listen to me clearly."
Dongfang Wang leaned his head towards Li Yao, almost piercing his bright eyes into Li Yao's face.
His face was twisted, and he gritted his teeth and said word by word, "I may have done a lot of things that violated the laws of the empire, and there are also some weakening effects."
The peripheral forces of the empire guarantee four The long-term rule of the big families, especially the Dongfang family, is not fair to the motley army led by Lei Chenghu.
They often treat them as cannon fodder, and have even thought of annexing his power countless times, including the practice of 'cannibalism'.
I have done many things.
"Yes, I did all of this.
I admit that from your point of view, it is not an exaggeration to say that I have committed a "heinous crime", but the "Blood Alliance Incident" was indeed not done by me!"
This time, it was Li Yao's turn to be stunned: "What, the Blood Alliance Incident was not a trick of yours?"
"No, although Dongfang Tuo, the president of the Imperial Development Bank, and I have some conflicts within the family, and our ideas are not in line with each other.
Including during the Empire Strikes Back, in order to squeeze out more resources, I put a lot of pressure on him. , causing the relationship between them to freeze to the freezing point, but he is a dignified empire veteran after all, how could I assassinate him in public?
" Dongfang Wang smiled bitterly and said, "Moreover, just three days before he was assassinated, I had secretly negotiated a package agreement with him, transferred part of the benefits, and allowed his private consortium to deeply participate in post-war reconstruction.
One day Great benefit to him!
"We've obviously reached an agreement, so why bother fighting to the death?"
Li Yao's mind raced and he asked, "Why is it that no one knew about such an important matter in advance, and why didn't you defend yourself?"
"This is a secret agreement and there's a lot of shady stuff."
Dongfang Wang blushed slightly, but still said, "The benefits of post-war reconstruction were not given to him for free, but were exchanged for the equity of the Empire Development Bank.
This matter is so big, how can it be made public?"
Li Yao understood instantly.
Although Dongfang Tuo, the assassinated imperial veteran, was the president of the Imperial Development Bank, it did not mean that the Imperial Development Bank was his private property.
He was just a leader, and at most he only held a certain share.
Use the power in your hands to secretly explore the interests of the Empire Development Bank, transfer these interests to Dongfang Wang here, and then transfer them back to Dongfang Tuo's private consortium.
Then they will be 100% owned by him.
Everyone is really happy.
Of course, the other shareholders and stakeholders of Imperial Development Bank would never allow Dongfang Tuo to poach themselves like this, so this package agreement would naturally be kept secret.
Dongfang Wang groped for a moment on his body, took out a Qiankun Ring, and said intermittently: "The secret agreement between Dongfang Tuo and I is in it, as well as two drops of our painstaking efforts, and our soul brand as signatures.
However, if you want to add it, crime, There is no need to worry.
Since everyone wants me dead, what's the use of presenting "conclusive" evidence?
A waste of a good card.
"I can only hold back until someone who is likely to believe me appears and falls into the right hands.
This agreement can prove that I have no motive to assassinate Dongfang Tuo.
Even if I really want to direct and act in a play, It’s entirely possible to assassinate another empire veteran instead of Dongfang Tuo, who he finally managed to win over!”
Li Yao held the Qiankun Ring in his palm, and the thoughts deep in his mind were like a storm, making waves.
"Also, I was not prepared to put General Lei Chenghu under house arrest at the beginning.
After all, he is the supreme commander of the Third War Zone, the commander of the Thunder Fleet, and he has such great prestige in the expeditionary force.
I would kill him without complete preparation.
Military power?
I’m not that confused!”

Dongfang Wang gasped, "However, someone down below killed him first and then reported it.
He was under house arrest for two days before I received the news.
By this time, rumors were already spreading on the front line.
General Lei Chenghu's prejudices against the Senate and me could not be eliminated.
'The deal is done' Of course, I can't let him go back to the front line, so I can only keep him under house arrest until the end."
"You didn't plan the Blood Alliance incident, and you didn't want General Lei Chenghu to be placed under house arrest?"
Li Yao frowned and said, "Don't forget, General Lei Chenghu is your son.
Dongfang Bai, the leader of 'Guangtong', personally arrested him and put him under house arrest.
Are you being ignored by your own son?"
"My biological son, hehehe, in front of the interests and power that spread across the sea of stars, what does my biological son mean?"
Dongfang Wang laughed harder than crying, "I just can't understand it.
I am already the prime minister of the empire, and Dongfang Bai became the director of Guangtong at a young age.
He is one of my favorite sons.
First, for him, isn’t the biggest benefit to me, help me consolidate the current situation, or even help me take a step further?
One day I am the Prime Minister, and the other day he is the Director of Guangtong.
What’s wrong with him is that he is like this now.
What are the benefits?
"How much profit and power would it take to tempt him to betray me without hesitation?
Why would he trust that person so much?
Believe that after I stepped down and the Dongfang family fell apart, he would still be able to stand, even better than How about taking a step forward today?”
Li Yao said: "That person?
Who?"
Dongfang Wang said coldly: "Of course it is the person who really planned the Blood Alliance Incident and put General Lei Chenghu under house arrest, our Queen, Li Linghai!"
