Chapter 291 The imperial meeting (various requests)
"It's been a long time since I've seen the nobles from Shangjiang come together. This should be thanks to the arrival of the holy Lord Bella. The holy light of Yunzhong City still shines on this city. Tonight, please drink to your heart's content, I want each of you to be carried back drunk by your attendants."

After a burst of laughter, Neptune's short speech ended, Duke Howard raised his glass and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty!"

The banquet officially begins.After seeing the holy angel with their own eyes, the nobles of Shangjiang City were the happiest group of people.Now that Joshua and Howard are here, it is almost certain that the infighting in the Shangjiang area will come to an end.

When the nobles celebrated in advance, an imperial meeting was held in another room under the auspices of the East China Sea King.

At that time, all the people who surrounded Shangjiang's power circle participated, including Da Liang who was brought in for no reason.

The angels of Shangjiang City stood behind the King of the East China Sea, setting off his power.The city lord and ministers sit on both sides according to their status and status.

Holy Bella sits aside as an accompanying spectator and witness.She put her left leg on her right leg comfortably, and slowly ate the fruits and vegetables on the side plate, her expression was full of contempt for this power struggle, her eyes despised everything in the main world.

After a violent cough.

The king of the East China Sea showed his majesty and said: "Everyone has not sat together for a long time. Some unpleasant things have caused a gap between us, but you should not want to see Shangjiang continue to be divided like this. This will only make us Become weaker, allowing foreign enemies to take advantage of it.

Today, in the name of the Holy Bella, I sincerely invite you to come here. I am willing to put aside all grievances and discuss with you a solution to the current situation in Shangjiang, a way to unify Shangjiang without war.

Joshua, your city is already being upgraded, I allow Chongming City to be upgraded to level 12, and keep the dragon army at its current size.But I cannot promote you to duke, because there is only one duke, and that is my brother Howard.

Other than that, what more can you ask for?
I will try my best to promise you that all I want is your loyalty, loyalty to me and to the future king of the East China Sea. "

Joshua said: "Your Majesty, I feel that I belong to a small role now. If you can persuade the Duke to return to Shangjiang City, I... have no choice."

Facing the first question, Joshua cleverly kicked the ball back to Donghai Wang.There is now a powerful dragon army in Chongming City, but it belongs to the side with the weakest war potential.If the East China Sea King fights Howard, he can deal with it; if Howard returns to Shangjiang City, it will be useless for Chongming City to struggle again.

Joshua didn't express his opinion, so the King of the East China Sea had to look at Howard. Although the two could still express their intimacy on the outside, they had actually created a huge gap.

"Howard, you are willing to come back."

Duke Howard said: "I don't want to come back all the time, but there is one thing I want to ask clearly. In Songjiang, who appointed Wilson to poison me?"

The whole venue suddenly turned cold.

All along, most people thought that Howard rebelled and stayed in Fengxian City to support himself, but they didn't expect that he didn't return to Shangjiang City because he was assassinated.It is estimated that there are only two people in this venue who can send an important minister like Wilson to assassinate Howard.

One is Joshua, who had been secretly in touch with Wilson, and the other is the King of the East China Sea.

Even Joyce, who knew something, could only make a little guess based on Da Liang's description. No one knew the real situation at the time, and the only one who could give the most accurate answer was the King of the East China Sea.

Everyone looked at the King of the East China Sea.

Howard is his younger brother, the most important hero of Shangjiang City, and he fought for this city all his life.It is precisely because of his existence that Joshua dared to rebel when he mastered five cities.

If it happened in Songjiang, it should be when Howard was seriously injured. At that time, he was also in danger for the city. If the king of the East China Sea really sent Wilson to assassinate Howard at that time.

The last bit of prestige of the King of the East China Sea will be gone.

The people sitting here are all people with real power in Shangjiang. They are all waiting for the answer from the King of the East China Sea. Even the holy Bella who is sitting on the sidelines is very curious about the answer.

The only one who didn't look at the King of the East China Sea was Joshua, and he should be the person closest to the truth.

The King of Donghai sat there with a blank expression, and after a while he said: "Actually, you have already guessed the answer, so why ask again? That's right, I sent Wilson to poison you, because I think you are the biggest in this city." hidden danger."

"Because of William?" Howard asked.

The King of the East China Sea did not deny: "As a father, I know that William's character is difficult to become a wise king, but he is my son after all, the legal heir of this city. And you, my younger brother...have your own heir in William Before, you were the second in line of succession. Listen to the voices that you caused after entering the palace as an enemy? How can I die in peace and pass the throne to William?"

"So you're going to kill me?"

"I know this is a stupid way, not a means used by a wise king. When I made this decision, I was just a father. Howard, you can think of a way for me to make sure that you will not threaten William's throne. I die in peace."

Howard said: "I will not make any promises to you. It has nothing to do with whether you assassinate me or not. I belong to this city, and this city is facing too many crises. If William can be king, I will do my best to assist him , and if he is not competent, I will replace him."

The King of the East China Sea coughed violently again: "It's already this time, aren't you even willing to say your perfunctory promise to me?"

"Your Majesty, you understand me. I never promise anything easily, but once I promise, I will do it. I'm sorry, brother, William is far from meeting my promise to you. In fact, what caused the current situation in Shangjiang The root of everything is William. Under your leadership, everyone here has been invincible. Whether at sea or on land, we have never encountered an opponent. The Oath is the strongest warship in the entire Western Pacific.

But now Jeju City dares to compete with us for the East Sea, which was unimaginable before.

I very much hope that Shangjiang will be strong again.But as your only son, William is still unable to shoulder the responsibility of leading these strong men. "

The King of the East China Sea looked at Howard and asked sharply: "So, you still have plans for the throne."

"No, I have never peeped at your throne, I was just performing my own duties. If you can guarantee that William will not do anything wrong after inheriting the throne, I will eliminate all those who threaten his throne."
