Chapter 358 Sit Down
"Master!"
In the darkness of the night, the eldest princess, looking panic-stricken and disheveled, hurried forward and met an equally disheveled team in front of her.
The leader of the team was the stern-faced head of the state religion.
"There has been a dramatic change in the temple..." The head of the national religion was unusually weak, "Eight of the ten elders in the church were actually instigated by the second princess to rebel."
The eldest princess looked over and saw that the few defeated soldiers following behind the chief were indeed all small characters, without any elder-level figures.
"The eight of them joined forces with their subordinates, and the believers loyal to me also suffered heavy casualties... I never thought that the state religion had been supreme in Huaxu Country for so many years, but it was actually controlled by a mere princess in my generation. It is really... a great shame."
The eldest princess sighed and said, "Master, don't worry too much. Take care of yourself. You may be able to make a comeback. At least... there are still two elders who are loyal to you, right?"
"The remaining two elders were against my plan to revive Taowu. I secretly killed them three months ago, and I have not yet replaced them with new ones... In fact, there are only eight of the ten great elders of the state religion at present."
The head of the state religion said expressionlessly.
The eldest princess remained silent.
After a pause, the head of the state religion looked at the eldest princess again and said, "Such a big thing happened in the state religion. How come you are not surprised at all?"
"Because..." The eldest princess pointed at her body and said, "Look at me, am I any better than you?"
"Just half an hour ago, a sudden change occurred in my palace." She also began to narrate: "There are a total of 150 palace servants in my palace, and 148 of them are undercover agents planted by the Second Brother..."
"There were two who knelt down and begged for mercy when they turned against us, claiming that they were undercover agents planted by my mother and the third prince..." The eldest princess had a blank expression on her face.
“……” The head of the national religion was also silent for a moment.
The eldest princess looked at the head of the state religion, her eyes seemed to say, when I grow up I will become you.
The head of the state religion looked at the eldest princess with eyes that seemed to say, you are truly better than your teacher.
After a long time, the abbot turned his head angrily.
"I only regret that something happened to my Taowu, and I don't know where he went... If I have this great beast in my hands, what do I have to fear even if there are thousands of enemies?"
"Master, it's too late to say this now. We should think about how to escape from the palace. The four walls of the palace are now covered with formations set up by the Second Brother's men, making it difficult to escape!"
The eldest princess reminded her master of the most urgent matter.
"Is that so..." The head of the state religion's face changed. "She has mobilized at least four troops from the outer city. Now the streets of the royal city are full of her people. We were chased all the way to the temple. I also want to quickly enter the palace to ask for your help and mobilize your troops to fight those traitors again."
The eldest princess's face was also full of gloom. It seemed that the severity of the situation was beyond her imagination.
She asked in confusion, "The palace is heavily guarded, how did you get in?"
"We just... walked all the way in, and no one stopped us." The head of the national religion frowned.
"Master, you guys...even if you want to enter the palace on ordinary days, there should be many obstacles. Don't you think it's wrong that you just walked in straight away?" asked the eldest princess.
The head of the national religion sighed heavily: "I only realized something was wrong after I came in!"
"It seems that the second eldest sister has already taken control of the royal city. At this moment, the entire palace must be in her hands!" The eldest princess analyzed, "She deliberately let you into the palace. I'm afraid she wants to get rid of the queen mother directly, and then frame us as the murderer of the monarch, and catch us all in one fell swoop. In this way, all obstacles that prevent her from ascending the throne will be removed."
The head of the national religion looked at her meaningfully, "Why didn't you seem so smart before the incident?"
"Because I once made a rebellion plan that was exactly the same as this one..." The eldest princess pondered, "Now that I think about it, since everyone in my palace is an undercover agent, the plan might have been stolen by her a long time ago. What a shameless plagiarist..."
She became angrier and angrier as she spoke.
"Why, do you still want to ask for copyright fees?" The head of the national religion advised her to calm down, and then asked: "How do you deal with your opponents in the end of your plan?"
"Of course, first beat him half to death, then destroy his cultivation, and finally criticize him severely in front of the people of the whole country, and then torture him to death for three days and three nights." The eldest princess answered without hesitation.
As he spoke, his face gradually turned pale.
At the end, her lips trembled and she said, "Is it too late for me to change it now..."
"It's useless. Even though she plagiarized you, she updates faster than you...it's almost the end..." The head of the national religion covered his face with his hands.
"Master, your cultivation is the best in Huaxu Kingdom. Why don't you lead us to break out from the sky directly!" said the eldest princess.
"If I could fly away, wouldn't I have taken off long ago?" The head of the national religion shook his head and said, "The eight elders have already covered the entire city with secret treasures. Anyone who takes off will be imprisoned. When the eight elders besiege you, you will definitely not be able to escape."
When the master and disciple were at a loss, they heard a sneaky shout from the shadows ahead: "Your Highness! I am late!"
The eldest princess looked up and was surprised to see a row of white teeth floating towards her.
It was not until the row of teeth walked out of the shadows that we discovered that he was a tall, thin, black-faced palace servant.
It was Dulank,
"It's you?" The eldest princess was surprised.
"Who is this?" When his location was discovered, the head of the state religion immediately became cautious.
"He is an undercover agent I planted in the Second Prince's palace..." the eldest princess replied.
"Yes, I heard that the whole palace was being hunted for His Highness, so I hurried over to assist." Lao Du nodded repeatedly.
"Haha..." The head of the national religion smiled, "You are really amazing to come here to assist her at this time."
Lao Du said sincerely, "The peak brings false supporters, and the dusk witnesses true believers!"
The eldest princess was deeply moved and held Lao Du's hand: "I never thought that there would be someone in this world who is so loyal to me, even though he is a useless piece of trash..."
"..." Lao Du resisted the urge to complain and gritted his teeth, saying, "I have a way to help Your Highness reverse the situation!"
"Haha." The head of the national religion sneered twice again, "Do you know what you are talking about? At this moment, there are at least 100,000 soldiers and horses mobilized inside and outside the royal city by the second princess. How dare you say that you can turn the situation around? You are just a small steward, and you dare to speak so arrogantly. Who do you think you are?"
"Humph!" Old Du waved his sleeves and said in a sonorous voice, "Since it has come to this, what difference does it make if you listen to what I say?"
The eldest princess and the head of the state religion looked at each other, nodded together, and said, "Go ahead."
"The most heavily guarded areas of the palace are the four walls. The Second Princess expected that you would try your best to break through, so she has deployed the most elite forces on the periphery. The troops in the royal city will gradually move into the palace, increasing the search range on all sides. Sooner or later, there will be no place for us to stay!"
"Our only chance to turn the tables right now is to steal the home!"
Lao Du waved his hand and said decisively.
"Stealing home?"
"That's right. The Second Princess just killed the emperor in His Majesty's bedroom. She is now in the palace, preparing to sit on the throne! But the guards around her are the weakest!"
Lao Du said viciously: "We will find the right time, stab her weak spot, and smash her center with one quick, accurate and ruthless blow!"
The eldest princess hesitated: "Cut her in the middle?"
The head of the national religion shook his head: "It's not that easy."
"Whether it's easy or not, we'll know after we give it a try." Lao Du smiled slightly, "This opportunity cannot be missed, please follow me quickly!"
The head of the state religion and the eldest princess both frowned. This man looked so ordinary...but how could he be so confident? At the end of his rope, the eldest princess was actually moved by him.
"Okay!" She nodded heavily, "I'll believe you this time."
Immediately.
Dulanke, along with the eldest princess, the head of the state religion, and the remaining defeated soldiers including the kitten, walked forward in a swagger along the wall in front of them.
Keep your chest and head high and look up to the sky.
Looking at the way he walks, he looks just like a fox walking in front of a tiger.
Even the head of the national religion couldn't stand it anymore and said in a deep voice: "I have never seen such an arrogant person in my life. There are 100,000 people outside searching for us, and you don't even try to hide?"
"Oh." Dulanke smiled proudly: "The castrator has his own clever plan."
The strange thing is that all the main gates of the palace along the way were wide open, and there was not even a single guard in sight.
He actually drove in easily.
"This is so strange... No matter how short-handed the situation is, the Second Princess can't completely abandon the arrangements around her..." The head of the national religion wondered again.
While I was wondering, I actually passed through more than a dozen tall palace gates and arrived at the imperial palace.
"Is it really possible?"
The eldest princess felt as if she was blessed by gods along the way.
It really feels like a dream.
"The Second Princess's arrangements are all under my control. No matter how cunning she is, she still has to drink my wine... hehehe."
Duranke smiled with the corners of his mouth raised high.
“Could this be the legendary…” The head of the national religion stared at Dulanke’s dark face, with doubt in his eyes that could not be concealed: “Stupid master of the art of countering?!”
"puff……"
Dulanke almost vomited blood.
"The hall is ahead. If the second sister is really in there, she has always been very skilled, and must be protected by experts..." The eldest princess frowned again, "My master and I are both injured at this moment. If we fight against a large number of people with a small number of people, we may not be able to defeat them."
"Why not let this servant lead the charge for His Highness?"
Dulanke rolled up his sleeves and prepared to go forward.
"No..." The eldest princess grabbed him and said, "Are you so brave?"
"Your Highness..." Lao Du gently shook off her hand and said in a deep voice: "Today I will let you see who says men are inferior to women!"
After saying that, he strode into the hall with big strides and a heroic and confident look.
He pushed open the door with a creak and quickly slipped in.
Then, a series of "bang bang pa pa ah ah" noises were heard inside.
only……
"Why do I feel like he's the only one shouting?" The head of the national religion was suspicious. "Could he be the only one being beaten?"
Just when everyone was curious, Lao Du pushed open the door.
"Your Highness, everything is ready."
"What?"
With shock and confusion, the group walked into the palace.
In the extremely spacious and empty hall, there was a row of people tied up neatly, and the first one was the culprit of the chaos in the royal city.
The second princess.
She sat there quietly, not moving at all. The eldest princess had never seen her so honest in all these years.
There is only a look of despair in his eyes.
The dozens of people in guard uniforms behind him were also like this. In addition to shock and fear, there was also fear as if they had seen a ghost...
"Is this successful?"
The eldest princess looked at Dulanke with a hint of absurdity in her eyes.
I never knew when this undercover agent became so talented in both literature and martial arts. If he was a real man... I would definitely make him my twelfth prince consort...
At this time, Dulanke had already run up to the high steps and wiped clean the huge golden phoenix chair that symbolized the throne.
"Your Highness..." He turned around and smiled flatteringly, "The Golden Phoenix Chair is ready, come up and try it on your buttocks."
"This..." The eldest princess was a little embarrassed, but she still walked over and prepared to sit down, smiling shyly, "It's not settled yet, isn't it?"
"You also know that this is not a good idea?" The head of the national religion glared at her. "There are still so many messes out there that have not been solved. Even if we catch the second brother, do you think they will completely obey you? There are still many things to do! Do you have the mind to sit on the throne now? Forget it."
"Master is right." The eldest princess was shocked and said, "I was just bewitched by a ghost and actually thought that the throne would be mine."
"The throne is yours..." The "ghost" behind him suddenly said faintly, "Your Highness, just sit down for a while. You won't suffer any loss or be fooled by sitting down for a while... You have longed for the throne for so long, why not experience it first?"
Lao Du patted the gorgeous golden phoenix chair again.
"This chair...is big and comfortable..."
"Hmm..." The eldest princess heard and saw it, and was also very moved. She was about to lift the hem of her skirt...
His figure suddenly stopped.
Because the head of the state religion flew over and held her butt.
"I have taught you since you were little that you should never let your guard down until the last moment. Now your mother and your third sister are still in danger of life and death, and you want to test for the throne. Do you think you are sure to win?"
“…”
Old Du was standing by and saw the eldest princess about to sit down, but she actually held him up with one hand.
Suddenly, anger rose in my heart and evil thoughts came to my mind.
He pointed at the head of the state religion and cursed, "Hey, you gossipy woman, I've tolerated you for a long time! You've been making sarcastic remarks all along the way. Now I've worked hard to send the eldest princess here, just to let her sit on the throne. What's wrong? What's wrong? You jump out and whine. Have you never been beaten before?"
The head of the state religion had a bad temper and said angrily: "You are just a small steward. Don't think you can speak loudly to me just because you have made a little contribution! Even if I lose my power, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse!"
"Why, you don't have a horse?"
"How is it?"
The two of them were getting closer and closer, and they exchanged a few words. But that being said, Lao Du's series of superb performances just now made the head of the national religion unsure of his strength, and he really didn't dare to make a move. Otherwise, if an ordinary manager dared to be so rude, he would have been killed by the head of the national religion with a palm.
Lao Du didn't dare to really take action. He knew better than anyone how he got the credit...
So the two continued to provoke each other.
"How is it?"
"How is it?"
As he was shouting, Dulanke suddenly stretched out his left hand and pushed the shoulder of the head of the state religion.
"I pushed you with my left hand, what's wrong?"
"Then I'll push you back with my left hand, how about that?"
The head of the state religion responded bluntly.
Dulanke suddenly stretched out his right hand and pushed the first seat.
"I'm going to push you with my right hand now, what do you think?"
"Then I'll push you back with my right hand, how about that?"
The chief was constantly arguing with Lao Du when he saw a cunning smile on his face.
Then he looked at his two hands raised in the air and suddenly realized something was wrong.
As her lifting hand moved away, the eldest princess's buttocks inevitably fell on the Golden Phoenix Chair...
Bang——
It was like a super slow motion replay.
Lao Du's pride, the eldest princess's ignorance, and the chief seat's astonishment were all frozen in this moment.
finally.
"ah……"
As the eldest princess sat down, Lao Du let out a comfortable groan of satisfaction.
