"Just say it. It's time to make some things clear." Xia Zhe nodded again with a smile on his face.
Everyone knows the ambition of King Philip of Macedonia.
I'm afraid that in three to five months at most, he will officially send troops to attack this small town.
Since you are planning to save your life by being removed from office, you really need to hurry up.
Is it time to make it clear?
Hearing this double entendre, and noticing that the king was in a good mood and did not seem to be pretending, the general involuntarily shuddered and his mind was suddenly enlightened.
That was close!
Could it be that this young king has been pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger all along?
I’m afraid that the attitude of eating, drinking and having fun in the past was all pretended!
You know, the fight for the throne is extremely bloody and cruel everywhere!
Although the eldest prince is gentle by nature, the second and third princes are both narrow-minded!
In order to reassure them, as the last heir, it is not impossible for me to pretend to be crazy and stupid to protect myself!
As for the fact that the king discussed surrender and fled the city after ascending the throne, who knows if this was also a strategy to lure out the snake and test the loyalty of his subordinates?
Three days ago, it was not the Macedonian army that attacked the king, but a bandit group that took money from people to ward off disasters.
Maybe those people were hired by Wang to act!
That’s why Wang can create miracles with just a few gestures!
Glancing around, the general suddenly realized that the number of guards standing around the conference hall was at least twice as many as usual.
What’s even more terrifying is that as the highest commander of the imperial guard, many of the guards themselves have no memory of him at all!
not good!
Could it be that the king has laid an ambush and is about to launch an attack?
Thinking of this, the general broke out in a cold sweat. He secretly thanked himself that apart from his words, he had not yet taken any actual action to rebel.
"My king is wise! Just now, after hearing what the high priest said, I realized that my king is both civil and military, and is also blessed by the gods! Having you is truly a great blessing for our city and for all our people!"
Thinking of this, the general lowered his posture and replied.
As he spoke, he knelt on one knee, pressed his right fist against his left chest, and bowed deeply to Xia Zhe.
Such an attitude was beyond Xia Zhe's expectations.
What is this about?
Shouldn't you take the lead in deposing me and taking first blood?
Surprised, Xia Zhe even forgot to say "My dear, please stand up." He glanced directly at the commander of the border defense army and the commander of the reserve army, hoping that the two of them would jump out quickly.
These two were the second and third of the three generals. Everyone was used to calling them the Second and Third Generals.
The situation changed suddenly, and the ministers were even more surprised than Xia Zhe.
What's going on?
The general who had always looked down upon the new king actually bowed his head and knelt for the first time!
What I don't understand even more is,
The new king didn’t even say stand up!
Without saying a word, he just let the general kneel like that!
So scary!
Several flashes of lightning flashed through the minds of the ministers, and everyone seemed to understand something.
The second and third generals, who were the focus of Xia Zhe's attention, felt a chill down their spines and broke out in cold sweat!
As the most aggressive pioneers who had just called for Xia Zhe's removal, both of them felt that the situation was not good!
Very bad!
The general had actually been secretly communicating with the king for a long time!
In this case, wouldn't we become the target of public criticism?
Looking at Wang's eyes, they are scarier than a knife!
If we don't express our opinions quickly, we may not even have the chance to leave this conference room!
Thinking of this, the two of them fell to their knees at the same time.
Then, without any prior agreement, they raised their hands above their heads and leaned down towards Xia Zhe until their faces touched the ground.
"My king is mighty and mighty! Your humble servant has no choice but to bow down to me and dare not harbor any dissenting thoughts!"
"That's right! I think the same thing, as the sun and the moon can attest!"
The second and third generals vied to express their opinions, their voices trembling.
What do you mean?
What about the promised recall?
What about the announcement to the world that I would be stripped of my royal status?
You guys can’t play like this!
Seeing the three generals acting like this, Xia Zhe was greatly disappointed and looked anxious. He couldn't help but snort coldly.
"snort!"
They are all so awesome on weekdays!
When we really need you, you act like cowards!
How did I end up with trash like you?
It really is an extremely difficult mode!
Not only is the city small and the army weak, there is not even one person who has the courage to rebel!
Xia Zhe's face turned pale and he shook his head secretly.
Hearing the king's cold snort and noticing that his expression was beginning to look bad, the other ministers who were still standing hurriedly knelt down one after another.
The high priest had certainly already been convinced, and most of those who were originally sitting on the fence also recognized the situation!
In just a moment, only the prime minister was left standing among the two rows of ministers.
"Sad! Truly sad! We all clearly had a consensus, yet it was shattered by a few political maneuvers! Do you still want to allow this tyrant to continue his reckless behavior and ruin our city's six hundred years of foundation?"
Faced with such a situation, the Prime Minister spoke proudly.
This is quite a serious statement.
Coupled with the Prime Minister's fearless attitude, the conference room immediately fell silent, and many ministers blushed unconsciously.
However, the silence lasted only a few seconds. Soon, several people who had grudges against the Prime Minister started shouting.
"How dare you! Prime Minister, are you coveting the throne? Are you planning a rebellion?"
"Yes! My king is wise and powerful, and he leads the country well. How can there be any talk of him messing around?"
"That's right! Who would agree with a traitor like you? Where are the guards? Drag him away! Chop him into pieces!"
The situation is stronger than people.
At this moment, those ministers who had a good personal relationship with the Prime Minister did not dare to speak rashly.
