The stone hall for discussing politics is gloomy and solemn, shrouded in cascading shadows. Only a little bit of light penetrated from the thick cloth of the gods, outlining the shape of the sun in the corner of the icy floor.

The king sat upright among the shadows, his faint gaze cast from a height, like a beast entrenched on the throne. His voice was distant and cold, it seemed to freeze the air, making people feel cold all over.

Husok took a light breath, smelling the smell of blood vaguely. His expression was always firm and steady. As a noble warrior who has fought for the rest of his life, his tenacious will will never be easily feared. He lowered his head, but answered frankly.

"Your Majesty, the Hill family and the royal branch have been friends for generations. When I passed through Trokampang, he was very hospitable, so it was not easy to refuse. At the banquet, we just talked about the scenery and common things, and we were drunk until we were drunk. Second When I woke up, I left without even seeing him once."

"Oh, personal friendship for generations."

Avit smiled lightly, noncommittal, and there was no emotion in his voice.

"Huosoke, I heard that Tepetel is dissatisfied with the New Deal and wants to support the royal branch and replace me as the king of the alliance?"

Hearing this, Xiusok's expression froze. He hurriedly raised his head and looked at Avit sincerely.

"Tepeter is only a whimper, and he will never dare to betray the alliance. I have warned him sternly... The black wolf is the forerunner of the tiger and the leopard, and the kestrel accompanies the eagle to fly high. Your Majesty, the royal branch is loyal to you. , have always regarded you as the supreme sun!"

"Oh, there is no difference in loyalty."

Avett smiled again. Then he suddenly sighed and asked in a deep voice.

"Heusok, Tepetel has the intention of rebelling against the royal family. If he contacts you, what should you do?!"

"...witness of the Lord God! Your Majesty, I am loyal to you. If Tepetel really dares to rebel against the Alliance, I am willing to lead the royal army, kill relatives righteously, and bring him down for His Majesty!"

Huosoke sweated slightly on his forehead. He clenched his fists secretly, his expression still calm and firm.

"Oh, righteous extermination."

Avit raised the corners of his mouth and looked at the in-laws in front of him with a half-smile.

"Yes, Husok, I believe in you."

The king's voice finally brought a smile, but the words became more and more chilling.

"Because Tepetel himself said so."

As soon as he finished speaking, Avet raised his divine scepter and tapped the throne lightly with the silver end. The symbols of theocracy and kingship burst out at the same time.

"Gilliam."

"Kings."

"Show him."

"As ordered."

Gillim nodded silently, and finally stepped out of the shadow of the throne. At some point in time, a one-foot-high wooden box was already in his hand. Then, the intelligence officer silently approached, gave a solemn salute, and placed the wooden box in front of the kneeling Hursok.

As the intelligence officer approached, the **** smell became stronger. Husok stared at the red at the bottom of the wooden box, a strong premonition welling up in his heart. He took a deep breath, letting the smell of rust pour into his heart, as if facing the battle on the battlefield, he slowly opened the wooden box. Then, he just glanced at it, his pupils shrank suddenly, and his hands trembled violently.

Inside the wooden box, it was Tepetel's head! He widened his eyes, his eyes were full of resentment before death, and he opened his mouth with force, as if he was roaring unwillingly!

"Ah, this... this!"

Looking at the familiar old man, Xiusoke's calmness was finally completely broken! Three days ago, the two of them were still talking and drinking happily until they were drunk. Three days later, Tepetel was already one step ahead of himself and came to the king's hall!

Violent emotions surged in his heart, and after a few breaths, Xiusoke barely regained his ability to speak. He was shocked and looked at the king in disbelief.

"Your Majesty, this, this, who moved this hand?!"

Avett smiled flatly and did not speak. Gilim bowed his head and replied solemnly.

"Of course it's you, the deputy head of the Eagles, Lord Husok."

"Ah I?!..."

"Yes, it's you. Tepetel divided the royal family and opposed the king's new policy. You were loyal to the king, and you left with the royal order that killed him, intending to get him drunk at the banquet. Then, in the evening, you left After the banquet, you dispatched the jaguar warriors in the Quds Force to kill relatives righteously. Under the leadership of the Shanshan family, you will kill Tepetel, who has been a personal friend for generations but intends to rebel. Finally, under the witness of the priests in the city, you help Iser, who made great achievements in the Western Expedition, inherited the position of the Mountain Patriarch, and left with a smile while the other party saw him off!"

"What's even more admirable is that on the night of the big event, you still held the two daughters at night and fell asleep calmly! This kind of loyal warrior creed and heroic warrior actions are the most heartbreaking. Your deeds will soon be Sing it all over the alliance and be admired by all the people!"

After Gilliam finished speaking with a smile, he bowed his head in a solemn salute again, his eyes full of sincere respect.

"His Majesty!..."

Husok clenched his fists in his chest, not looking at the salute intelligence officer. He was just flustered and stared blankly at the king on the throne. Avit smiled indifferently, and came to a conclusion slowly but surely.

"Shusok, this is the 'fact' known to the world. Remember, you are the father of Shulot, the son of the high priest, and the representative of the royal branch! The two royal families need to be closely integrated, and there must be no left behind. In the gaps, come to be used by the nobles! ... In addition, you are not of high background, and you need a credit to be the deputy head of the Eagle Noble Chapter."

Husock was silent. He stared at the blood-stained deceased's head, as if it still carried some kind of lifelike freshness. Scenes from a few days ago appeared in front of him one after another, and finally settled on Iselle who was smiling and pouring wine.

"The herbs in the wine...fall red in front of the flowers...that's how it is!"

Husok murmured. After a while, he bowed his head and paid homage again.

"Your Majesty, follow your will."

"Well, very good!"

Avit smiled, looked at the deputy head who showed his surrender, and said softly for the first time.

"Xu Suoke, you have done a great job for me in the crusade against Ti Suoke. You have also handled the logistics of the Northern Army very well this time."

"You are the concubine of the royal branch, and Shulot is your son. After all, the relationship between us is very close. When you come to the capital this time, you can ask me anything you need in life. , or Gilliam."

"The Eagle Chapter is the most honorable Sun God Guard in the Alliance, a powerful Chapter that protects the king. I am very relieved that the position of the deputy commander will be handed over to you! The current Eagle Commander is my family's trusted general, Stanley. You have to work side by side like a loyal pack of wolves. The number of eagle warriors will soon expand, and many noble children will be added. Do your best, and the noble descendants who value you can sign up!"

"...Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Husok clenched his fists and bowed his head, greeting again. Then, his fisted hand loosened and clenched again, and after a while, he asked in a low voice.

"Your Majesty, Tepetel's head..."

"Oh, Gilliam, what do you think?"

"Tepetel has a bad heart and intends to rebel. This end is the punishment of the Lord God! His head will be displayed to the great nobles who come from the alliance states at the victory ceremony three days later. At that time, Lord Husok As the deputy head of the group who has made great achievements, he will also stand on the Great Temple and accept everyone's tribute!"

Gilliam gave a solemn salute and looked at Hursok with a smile.

"Lord Huosoke, please accept this achievement safely! Without you, it would not have been so easy to punish Tepetel, who is so wary!"

Hearing this, Xiusok glanced at the head of his old friend again, then bowed his head silently and said nothing.

"Very well, just deal with it like this!"

Avit struck the divine staff again, and the crisp thumping sound fell into his heart.

"Hundreds of warriors from the Quds Force were all merged into the Royal Legion. I knew the names of several Quds Jaguars who bravely beheaded Tepetel, and they were all promoted to the Royal Jaguar Corps and served as captains of a hundred. Well, Husok, the Jaguar Chapter of the royal family is also expanding. You can also sign up for the outstanding civilian warriors in the Quds Force!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Well, let's go! Take a good rest for two days and prepare for the sacrificial ceremony."

"Follow your will."

Husok's expression has returned to calm. He saluted respectfully, then turned around and strode out of the hall of light. Soon, he walked out of the stone hall, the warm sunlight fell on his face, and the clamorous voice of the human voice came into his ears again. The resolute samurai raised his head, narrowed his eyes to look at the sun, and let out a long sigh.

"It's a beautiful day to meet old friends!"

Husock whispered to himself. Before leaving, he turned his head and took one last deep look at the King's Hall. The heavy stone door has been closed, and the flying cloth curtain blocks the sunlight. And the throne of shadow is towering in it, like the most dangerous lair of beasts.

There was silence in the stone hall of the lair. Avit looked at the portrait of the Lord God on the curtain, his eyes like the bottom of a deep lake. After a while, he asked in a deep voice.

"What did the high priest say?"

"The high priest just found out this morning. Facing the king's messenger, in front of many priests and elders, he said aloud, 'Well killed! Eagle warriors should be like this.'"

"Ha, the old fox."

Avette smiled slightly, with some emotion.

"The high priest has a deep plan, and the wisdom of Shulot is divine. Even Shusoke can be called sincerity, perseverance and bravery. I am a little envious of a three-generation hero!"

"Your Majesty, after the new year, His Royal Highness Chimarpili will be five years old. He has been smart since he was a child, and now he can recite the poems of the previous king proficiently, and he can also draw two small battle sticks. The future His Royal Highness must be a wise and brave man. A hero of both perfection!"

The intelligence officer's words came from the shadow of the throne, with a rare smile.

"Well, little Chimalpilly, this little tiger cub, haha!"

Avit shook his head with a smile and continued to return to the topic.

"The New Deal has been promulgated, and there are no changes in the city-states?"

"Your Majesty, the alliance has pacified the Tarasco Kingdom and defeated the Tlaxcalans. Your prestige is at its peak! Regarding the reform of centralization, the northeastern city-states do not have too many objections, and the northern commander Ocellol expresses his obedience. The southwestern city-states participate. In the fierce battle between the two armies, the most rebellious nobles were arranged to die. The southeastern city-state was invaded by the Tlaxcalans, and many nobles were unfortunately killed. Now, the leader of the northwestern city-state, Tepetel of the Mountain Family was also sentenced to death. Coupled with the great nobles who were transferred from the central part of the Lake District, the central royal family will not have too much resistance to the centralized reform of the Texcoco Lake District!”

"very good!"

Avet nodded in satisfaction. Then, he asked thoughtfully.

"The new head of the Mountain Clan is Izel? Is he young enough to win the hearts of the city-state?"

"Your Majesty, as long as Iser relies on the royal family's center, he can control the situation of the city-state. The new chief priest of Trokham State will also help him. In addition, although he is not young, he is already a qualified successor. Wolf. He himself took the jaguar warrior into his father's house on the night he started three days ago..."

"Oh? He is indeed a qualified wolf! If he can be brave again, he can be reused."

Avit appreciatively praised. The Mexican inheritance laws are jungle-like, always brutal and bloody, and only the victors are appreciated.

"Gilim, the sacrificial ceremony is about to begin, and the sacrifice must be grand and solemn! Have the important god-born sacrifices been handled?"

"Your Majesty, everything has been handled properly. Starting tonight, members of the royal family in Tarrasco will reduce the amount of narcotics. On the day of the sacrifice, an appropriate amount of psychedelic drugs will be added to make them look calm and die calmly."

Talking about the sacrifice of the gods, the intelligence officer looked calm, and there was no trace of waves. In his eyes, there is no noble blood.

"Very good. As usual, Su Angua is the most precious sacrifice, a gift to the Lord God. In these few days, let him live as comfortably as possible, and arrange a few beautiful girl priests!"

Speaking of which, the pride of the victor appeared in Avit's eyes, and then the pride turned into pity, giving alms to the prisoners who were also kings.

"Follow your will."

The intelligence officer smiled and saluted. After a while, he asked softly.

"Your Majesty, Su Angua is willing to take the initiative to kneel down and pay homage to you at the ceremony, in front of the messengers from all the states and ministries in the world. First, I bow humbly to show my submission, and then I lead my neck to be slaughtered!"

"Oh, so it is! What conditions does he have?"

Hearing this, Avit was quite moved. The old rival was willing to kneel and surrender before his death, but it was more hearty than fine wine.

"He asked you to leave the condor bloodline."

Gilliam bowed his head solemnly~lightnovelpub.net~ He knew the king's preferences.

"Your Majesty, there is also a young prince in the Tarasco royal family named Chatini. He has the blood of a noble chief and is not an orthodox heir. As the cub of the condor, it is also possible to borrow the excellent medicine of the alliance. Domesticate one or two."

"Well...the elder's side..."

"The elderly are getting older. Recently, they have been living in seclusion to cultivate their energy for the New Year's festival. The immortal sun is high above and will not shine in such a hidden corner... Besides, the Tarrasco royal family, there are still many bloodlines fleeing."

"Ok..."

Avit pondered for a long time, and then nodded lightly, revealing a cold smile.

"Let's do it like this. The festival is about to start, so I'm really looking forward to it!"

The king's words echoed in the great hall, lingering in the shadows, the towering throne. Then, there was another crisp ding-dong, praising the supreme power and the icy king's heart.
