Reincarnation Paradise

Chapter 1833 Human Heart
The negotiation was much smoother than expected. Although the princess Sayetuo has always suspected that Su Xiao had some conspiracy, but the throne is there, and she will certainly not miss this kind of god-given opportunity.

When Shayeto walked out of the imperial parliament hall, she couldn't help but look back at this magnificent building. Since the death of the Black King, this is the highest authority of the empire, and all major orders are conveyed from here.

If everything goes well afterwards, the Imperial Parliament will cease to exist. Not only the Imperial Parliament, but even the Senate and Sayetto are planning to gradually abolish it.

Even, she plans to abolish the hereditary system of royal power, withdraw power from the duke and ministers, and change the hereditary system to an electoral system.

Regarding the hereditary system, Sayetuo is both a beneficiary and a victim. The empire has not had a new king for more than ten years because of the hereditary system.

The electoral system is different. When the previous king falls, the people and officials will immediately elect the next king. Sayetto is even planning to confer official positions such as 'members' to make the electoral system fairer.

It can be said that Princess Sayetto is full of ambitions, so she hated Su Xiao, Duke Silver Feather, Bloomer and others extremely, and once appeared in her heart: "Just leave it to me, I will make the empire better, more perfect' kind of thinking.

It is also for this reason that Sayetuo is a little irritable when facing Su Xiao and others.

However, the Black King also thought that he could govern the empire very well at first, but for some reason, he chose the hereditary system instead of the more effective electoral system, and sat on the throne for more than 300 years.

Not to mention that he is full of ambition and has already mobilized his subordinates to prepare to become the new king. Su Xiao is also preparing.

"It's all right?"

Wandering on the street with Su Xiao, the old magic stick with a metal book in his hand spoke.

"Basically no problem. Sayetto has already agreed. Wu Fu and the Chancellor of the Exchequer will soon be overwhelmed. Fortunately, they dare not jump out in a short time."

Su Xiao squatted in front of a stall, holding a palm-sized clay sculpture to observe. The workmanship of this thing is good, and there is a small amount of eternal power inside, which is somewhat similar to an amulet. Create one-time defensive equipment or items.

"They openly opposed you? Did you join Sayetto?"

The old god stick's expression was not unusual, it seemed that he had expected such a thing a long time ago.

"Not for a short time, but it will be sooner or later."

When Su Xiao supported Sayetuo to become the new king, he had long thought of the reaction of Wu Fu and the Minister of Finance, which is actually quite normal.

Wu Fu and the Minister of Finance are willing to support Su Xiao because they want to climb the dragon and become the phoenix. Once Su Xiao becomes the new king, they will become big figures like the founders of the country.

But Su Xiao gave up becoming the new king, which inevitably made Wu Fu and the Minister of Finance have ideas. To put it bluntly, they are Su Xiao's eagle dogs now, and they were once hostile to Sayetuo.

Once Sayetuo becomes the new king, it will mean that Su Xiao loses power. Once Sayetuo settles accounts after autumn, it will be enough for Wu Fu and the Minister of Finance to go around.

This is people's hearts. In the struggle for power, no one will always be loyal to anyone. You must know that Wu Fu was once Bloomer's subordinate, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer swore to be loyal to the little duke.

"Explain to them the cost of becoming the new king, they may..."

Before the old magician finished speaking, Su Xiao, who had his back turned to him, waved his hand.

"The human heart is more complicated than you think, are you right, Ken Rahan."

"maybe……"

The old god stick's eyes were a bit complicated, and his mouth opened and closed, as if he wanted to say something to Su Xiao, but after a while, he chose to remain silent.

"Kukulin Baiye, I will always stand by your side."

The old magic stick tapped on his chest with one hand, showing the smile he had when he first met Su Xiao.

"Oh."

Su Xiao threw a few black coins on the street stall, got up and walked towards the end of the street. From the beginning to the end, he didn't look at the old magic stick.

"Feel sorry."

The old magic stick looked at Su Xiao's back and spoke in a low voice, and continued in a voice that Su Xiao couldn't hear: "If you want to go there, I will go with you until I die, Kukulin."

……

At seven o'clock in the evening the next day, Luo Lanhua Manor.

Dozens of holy city guards were guarding both sides of the main gate of the manor. They were wearing gold and black armor, and the standard long swords around their waists were inlaid with rubies. Although they stood neatly, their brows revealed arrogance.

Of course these guards cannot be used for war, but as a guard of honor, they are the best choice, each of them is young and handsome, and has some background.

The Roland Flower Manor is the property of the princess Sayetuo. She doesn't usually live here, but tonight, it is open to all imperial officials and wealthy businessmen. As long as they are famous people, they must be there tonight, unless they don't want to hang out in the holy city.

Outside the main gate of the manor stood a few officials under Shayeto. They put down their airs tonight. No matter how small the official positions were, they would warmly welcome them, flattering those small officials.

A gold-plated carriage stopped, and the carriage opened. Several old servants got out of the carriage first, and then an eight or nine-year-old boy walked out of the carriage.

"My lord, you are here."

An obese official with a shiny face stepped forward quickly. He was the fourth person under Sayetto, named Evan. During a game between the two sides, he was almost caught by Woofer in the military camp outside the city. There, even if Evan was an important official of the empire, he would not survive for two hours. It was Sayetuo who did not hesitate to come forward in person to meet Su Xiao at Youyu Manor, and kept him in a way that almost cut his flesh.

"You're Evan?"

The little duke was chewing on something when he spoke, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer was not by his side today.

The Chancellor of the Exchequer is already on the other side. Although the Chancellor of the Exchequer is still loyal to the little duke, this is a matter of position.

"Yes, Your Highness, please."

With an apologetic smile on his face, Evan personally led the little duke into the manor.

At this time, a temporary venue had been set up in the courtyard of the manor. Of course, as a young duke, he was quickly led to the banquet hall in the castle.

The guests arrived one by one, and most of them could only participate in the dinner in the courtyard. Even, they couldn't even see the owner of the manor, Sayetto, but it was an attitude to come.

In the banquet hall of the castle, most of the imperial officials whispered to each other around the banquet table, and the dance floor in the center belonged to the young people, not the old men like them.

As for the owner of the castle, Sayetto, she was wearing formal attire, standing inside the banquet hall like stars holding the moon, and the high-ranking officials of the empire spared no effort to compliment her.

But from the beginning to the end, Sayetto was a little absent-minded, because the most important guests did not arrive, and the seat next to the first one was empty.

"Is this...a little reconciled?"

Sayetuo smiled, she no longer doubts that Su Xiao would give up the royal power, and with today's dinner, it is inevitable for her to become the new king.

……

Right Imperial Manor, in a dark study room.

Behind the antique desk, Su Xiao is flipping through a half-weathered notebook, while Boubo Wang is lying on the desk, and Ah Mu is sitting in a corner not far away. Because the room is rather dim, only its outline can be seen. contour.

The moonlight shines through the window, and the old magic stick stands in front of the window, and Shayeto's dinner invitation is directly ignored by him.

Boom, boom, boom...

There was a knock on the door, Wu Fu pushed the door and walked into the study, smelling heavily of alcohol.

"Sayetto's dinner, you should be there."

Su Xiao didn't go to see Wu Fu, but focused on the broken note in his hand.

"I, Wufu, am a rough man. I'm not used to attending egg dinners. When I'm so poor that I can't even afford a pension, that woman doesn't even look at me."

Wearing a full body armor, Wu Fu, who was a little angry, sat in the corner with a clang, still holding a bottle of spirits in his hand, and began to drink dull wine.

After about a few minutes, the door was pushed open again, and the chancellor of the exchequer in formal attire walked into the room carrying a few tightly bound oil paper bags. He didn't say much, just found a chair and sat down. The oil paper bag in his hand was thrown to Su Xiao, and another to Wu Fu.

"This is the venison from my hometown, my lord, try it."

Regardless of his demeanor, the chancellor picked up a large piece of venison, stuffed it into his mouth, and chewed it.

"It's not a good choice to come to me tonight."

Su Xiao also picked up a piece of venison and put it in his mouth to taste it carefully. Although the meat fiber was rough, it had a strange fragrance, which made people couldn't help but pick up another piece and put it in his mouth to chew.

"Wine is delicious, but if you drink too much, you will die quickly."

Wu Fu grinned and said nothing else. Obviously, both he and the Minister of Finance chose to side with Su Xiao.

"Zos, this little bastard's wings are hardened. It is said that Sayetuo introduced the councilor's daughter to him. That kid is now considered to be in his early years."

Wu Fu took a few sips of wine into his mouth, and those eyes became extremely fierce.

"Young people are easy to be tempted, but Sayetuo promised to give me the position of Zuo Yu, I am really willing."

The Chancellor shook his head with a wry smile.

"The woman promised you to be the left guard? Coincidentally, I am the commander-in-chief of the imperial army, so majestic, commanding all the frontier troops of the empire."

Woolf looked at the Chancellor with a mean look on his face, and the old gentleman threw a deer bone at Wulf.

Sayetuo's doing this is actually not despicable, or in other words, if she doesn't take away military power and finances from Su Xiao, she feels uneasy.

It's a pity that the Minister of Finance ignored her, and Wu Fu pretended to be deaf and dumb. After accepting the benefits from Sayetto, she was sent directly to Youyu Manor.
