Chapter 552 State Funeral
"Okay! General Durand is indeed a quick talk. This spirit is really admirable!" Xu Ziye said immediately, and he must not let Durand's words fall to the ground.
The veterans saw that Durand himself said so, so they couldn't plead for Durand anymore, so they started drinking with their own worries. Xu Ziye nodded to Louis with a smile. Louis also responded to Xu Ziye with the same attitude, and the two reached an agreement at least in this regard.
Then, Xu Ziye used the excuse that he had drunk too much and needed a rest, and then gave Lu a wink and asked Lu to come with him.
Xu Ziye and Lu came to a room, mainly because it was not easy to avoid the royal spies here. To be honest, these royal spies are a very capable team. If Xu Ziye had not slightly affected their consciousness, then they would not have lost people.
"How is it? Have the veterans among these people figured it out?" Xu Ziye said directly to Lu. He must speak quickly and be careful in this place, otherwise he may not be discovered by the other party.
"Well, these old schools are basically led by the old bishop Mendelev. I believe Mendelev must have agreed to what they have." Green said in a affirmative tone.
Xu Ziye nodded. Mendeleev must have thought that Louis was a restless king, so he supported these veterans who were greedy for pleasure, so that he could maintain the overall stability.
If you want to attack the arrogance of the veteran school, you must solve Mendelev. However, Mendelev is an archbishop in white and his skills are definitely not worse than Louis. Moreover, the power behind Mendelev is unnegligible, that is the entire Temple of Light!
The more humans in this world there are, the more powerful the Temple of Light is. This is a force that he is absolutely unmatched at present. Even the Seven Dead Monarchs are definitely not the opponent of the Temple. The power of the Temple is so strong that it is unpredictable. Xu Ziye has played games for so long that he has seen many people who have scored a temple dungeon, but he has not even passed the level. The probability of making such a dungeon is very low, and the chance of passing the level is infinitely close to zero.
The five guilds that once ranked in the top five jointly fought the dungeon of the Temple of Light, but they were all destroyed! No one came back alive, which shows what kind of existence the Temple of Light was at this time.
Although he would not be killed, Xu Ziye could not guarantee that he would not be imprisoned. Ru Yun, a master of the Temple of Light, had his own strength at that level that was not even a second-rate. Once he was imprisoned, he would not be able to travel through space to the world of the game and take out his soul.
In other words, once you are thrown into the divine prison, you really have no chance to turn over! Unless you self-destruct, the enemy will be unable to imprison you.
However, if I am the King of Mountains for the rest of my life, then I will be in vain!
Don't worry! Since you are here, don't think about the consequences anymore.
"Mendelev must be eliminated. Only by eliminating him can the elders be more honest. Without Mendeleev's restraint, then Louis would dare to start a war. Only when our plan could be implemented in the future." Xu Ziye said.
"Lord, what should we do next?" Green asked.
"The Temple of Light regards Louis as a puppet that governs the country. Then we might as well find a puppet in the Temple of Light and recommend him to be the chief priest. In this way, Louis will have no bonds and he will launch it boldly. Even if he doesn't launch it, I will create friction!" Xu Ziye said.
"Yes! Lord!" Green said.
At this time, Louis came to Mendelev with a glass of wine. Mendelev's expression was a little embarrassed, while Louis looked at Mendelev and the elders present: "A little unpleasantness just happened, so everyone might as well forget this matter! I'll do it first!"
"What did Your Majesty say? When you become a general, you should know what steadiness means. General Durand is so impulsive, and this is his own fault!" Mendeleev said, and he picked up the cup and finished the wine in the cup in one breath.
In fact, both of them knew what the other party was thinking, but they didn't say it out. Louis understood that what happened today was probably what Mendeleev ordered Durande to do. The reason why he opposed Xu Ziye's promotion to prince was very simple, that was, he didn't want Louis's men to take on important responsibilities and seize power.
Perhaps, this kind of banquet should have been spent in such a strange atmosphere.
The next day, news came from the palace that Durand hanged himself and left a suicide note with the reason for his suicide, and he could not face the days of losing power.
Mendeleev silently burned the suicide note and suggested that Louis Widurand hold a state funeral. Louis also remembered that although Durand was not his own, he had also defended the territory for the Principal of Madrid for decades. He had no credit and had worked hard. So Louis agreed to Mendeleev's request, but at the same time, Louis also made up his mind to get rid of Mendeleev immediately.
Mendeleev has been the bishop for more than thirty years. When Louis was young, Mendeleev was already a bishop. Now Mendeleev is over 80 years old, but he still refuses to delegate power. Therefore, Louis decided to deal with Mendeleev, because once Mendeleev takes action, everything will be too late.
Mendeleev may not have expected that what happened at the banquet had deeply stimulated Louis, making Louis determined to assassinate Mendeleev, and he would never let this old guy survive again.
The state funeral was held very grandly, and many important figures were coming. For the Principal of Madrid, which had just held the promotion ceremony of the prince, the atmosphere of the state funeral was quite strange.
