Chapter 259 Revealed
Thank goodness, the reunion dinner was not disturbed by anything that spoiled the fun.
Moving from the restaurant to the terrace, the guards who had just changed shifts also came back to join in the lively bonfire barbecue.
Tianjiu, who was so tired that he couldn't walk, huddled with the Marshal on the sofa, watching Wu Ping and the Eleventh Team perform magic tricks for everyone.
The excitement continued into the night, and the happiness blurred my eyes. Tian was so drunk that he felt sleepy.
The rising of the third moon means the arrival of the second half of the night.
Yuan Xu quietly left with Tianjiu, leaving the excitement to the people who had worked hard for a year.
Unexpectedly, when I turned around, I met Zhou Chang, who was on duty for Chizhou today, and Xiao Aolai who came with him.
The two looked embarrassed and hesitated to speak.
"marshal……"
Well, today's fun ends here. The night shift begins.
"His Majesty the Emperor has accepted the closed-door meeting with Speaker Chris and is waiting for you to attend."
Yuan Xu looked at the two of them with some confusion.
The two men had rosy complexions, and there were no signs of moisture on their shoulders. They even looked like they had eaten.
Yuan Xu asked, which was very unusual for him: "When did it happen?"
Zhou Chang answered immediately without checking the time: "Six hours ago."
Little Ole next to him tried to avoid the marshal's gaze by looking at documents.
"You are the ones who reported it?!" This is outrageous!
The two men lowered their eyes and dared not reply.
understood.
It turns out that it was not God's blessing that allowed them to enjoy such rare happiness, but Zhou Chang's sensibleness!
Zhou Chang believes that the Marshal accompanying Miss Shen is the top priority, so everything else... can wait!
This resulted in a few people flipping the table and cursing.
Everyone!
A group of people headed by His Majesty the Emperor had been waiting for half the night but received no reply.
When asked, where are the people? They are busy.
Then ask, where are the people? They are busy.
What are you busy with? Miss Shen.
OK! No one dares to urge me anymore, so I just have to wait.
So when the marshal finally arrived at the venue with his men, the emperor and his men had already lost their temper.
Chris even wondered why he was so rude to bring up such a thing and cause trouble for himself!
-
The closed-door meetings used to be life-and-death games between the two parties for the struggle for power.
And this time, Yuan Jue wanted to die with a clear conscience.
The world needs a reason that it is willing to accept, and the royal family also needs a presentable excuse.
Yuan Jue was a member of the royal family and the old emperor's third brother. The old emperor did not want to and could not just close the case so casually. After all, there were still some unresolved doubts in his mind.
Yuan Xu, holding Tianjiu, Chizhou, and Li Nuo, walked over leisurely. Everyone was sitting in the corridor outside the venue.
No matter what your identity or status is, you will all have to sit on a small stool and wait.
The old emperor frowned and waved his hand with a tired look. The royal guards opened the door of the underground fortress and escorted Yun Jue in first.
The old emperor deliberately slowed down his pace and waited for Yuan Xu and Tian Jiu to come up: "Have you eaten and drunk enough?"
He leaned over the Marshal to ask about the wine, showing no anger at all.
Tianjiu licked his lips in fear and nodded quickly. Eh~ Could it be that he didn't wipe his mouth clean and got discovered?
"It's good to be full. I have a hard time today."
After saying that, the handsome old man ignored his son and walked forward leisurely.
How should I put it? It's kind of cute.
"It will be interesting. But if you feel bored, you can go to sleep first. I'll have someone prepare a bed inside."
"Then you guys have your meeting, I'll just listen from my bed!"
It was so great that such a good thing actually existed. Isn't this what she had hoped for the most when she was little, to go to school without desks and chairs, and everyone would have a bed!
It’s just like the treatment of online classes.
Chris had never seen anything like this in his life. It was hard to say which side was more unseemly, holding a meeting at someone's bedside.
-
This kind of closed-door meeting only happens once in several generations.
Those who hold meetings may not necessarily pass on their experience to the next generation, so each generation has little idea of the specific process.
Who cares! Just say it.
But where to begin?
Chris: “Where do we even begin?”
There were so many people attending the meeting that Tianjiu couldn't recognize them all.
Philip: "Emperor, we need a definite answer. How far do you want to go? How many generations can we survive?"
The old emperor said: "I never thought of not giving you a chance to live. It's just that I almost died on the battlefield that year, and you have already declared war."
Chris: "I support Yuan Jue. That is in line with the orthodox succession law. You want to seize the throne, how can I give it to you!"
The old emperor: "I'm trying to seize the throne, but what the hell am I trying to seize? I'm about to get married! Why would I want to be an emperor?"
Chris: "If you're not going to seize the throne, what are you doing with 500 million soldiers? Are you going to kill the Zerg or to commit treason?"
The old emperor: "What nonsense! The third brother also led 500 million soldiers, why don't you accuse him of treason!"
Wow! This is so exciting! Tianjiu couldn't even lie down in bed! He stood up straight and stared at everyone, not wanting to miss even the slightest expression.
I was so serious that I even saw Chris drooling in excitement!
So this is what a closed-door meeting is. They can say anything, and they dare to say anything!
"I, let me tell you something. Back then, the Third Prince went to the defense zone where the First and Second Princes died in battle. A large number of Zerg appeared there. I suspect someone deliberately induced the Zerg outbreak, but I have no evidence."
Tianjiu's second uncle actually raised his hand tremblingly and spoke!
"Nonsense! You don't have to say that! My father was on interstellar patrol and died in that defense zone. Do you think we are stupid?
I lead the troops to kill insects!"
Although Yuan Jue, who lost an arm, looked a little haggard, but in a closed-door meeting, everyone was equal, so he looked much more handsome after he cleaned up.
The explosive conversation triggered the core of the incident:
The previous emperor and the death of the outstanding eldest and second princes.
This is what the old emperor wanted to ask.
He has always been suspicious of the cause of his father Yuan Su's death between the two answers: his third brother and the aristocratic family.
But what Yuan Jue meant just now clearly meant that he wasn't the one who did it.
"Third brother, why didn't you come to save me when I ran out of energy?"
Huh? There's this part?
Tianjiu looked at the emperor, seemingly exhausting all his energy in asking this question, a question sixty years late.
The old emperor is almost a hundred years old, and he still can't let go of what happened 60 years ago.
Who could let it go? When he was about to ask his father for permission to get married, at the happiest moment of his life, he received bad news one after another.
His father died on the way to an inspection tour. His most admired elder brother, an S-class marshal, and his equally outstanding second brother were both killed by the insect swarm.
It has been many years since the Yuan family has experienced such a tragic situation.
The two remaining sons of the direct line, his third brother and him, are far less outstanding than his eldest and second brothers.
He never thought that one day the throne would be his, and he never wanted to learn the so-called power tactics.
The eldest brother is a marshal and the future emperor. He only needs to follow the procedures to serve in the military, propose marriage, get married and have children.
Living a simple and happy life is enough.
But since the bad news came, everything has changed.
He couldn't accept it anyway.
Third brother might be the evil person who murdered our father.
