"If one person can't tell, then why don't we just find a few more people to ask? I still don't believe it. Isn't anyone willing to tell?
If they refuse to say it, then force them to say it! "The fourth elder said.
"It's not okay to kill people. The people who came back this time are all the confidants of the foreign king, especially the monks who are in the tribulation period.
If we kill these people, the foreign king will not give up so easily! "The great elder reminded.
"I just said to force them to talk, but I didn't say that I really wanted to kill people. Moreover, if we knew that the foreign king was really injured, how could we give them a chance to report the news to the foreign king? Why don't we go directly to the foreign king's palace? Already?" the fourth elder said.
"But those people are in the outer palace. It is not easy for us to find them out!" said the Eighth Elder.
"I have my own way, it just depends on whether you are willing to give it a try!" said the Fourth Elder.
"If the foreign king is really injured, then it is indeed an opportunity. But, once the foreign king dies, will we be the foreign king again?" said the great elder.
If he doesn't want to be a foreign king, it is absolutely impossible.
Perhaps the eight elders present actually want to be the outer king. Although they are now considered powerful in the outer court, compared with the status of the outer king, how can it be a little different?
Let's just say that if something good happens in the inner dynasty, the outer king will only be thought of, not the chief elders like them.
Although they need to pay tribute to the inner dynasty on a regular basis, the inner dynasty will also reward the outer kings to varying degrees based on the value of the tributes paid. These are benefits that the elders in charge will not receive.
Therefore, after becoming an outer king, not only will you get more resources in your outer dynasty, but your status and benefits will also increase in your inner dynasty.
Because of this, if the foreign king steps down or is killed, none of these people would want to be the foreign king.
"I know everyone wants to be the foreign king, but if we decide on a fifth foreigner like this, no matter who we choose, others will definitely be dissatisfied.
In this case, I can give you a tip, which is also the fairest! "Sixth Elder said.
"Sixth, tell me!" Everyone looked at the sixth elder curiously.
"If the Outer King is no longer here, then we will all share the Outer King's position equally!" said the Sixth Elder.
"Split the position of the Outer King equally? How is this possible? There is only one Outer King position, how can we share it equally? You treat it as the Outer King's chair, and each of you will get a piece!" the fourth elder said angrily.
“Of course it’s not divided equally, I mean, we can all take turns being the foreign king.
Set a time limit, such as three years, and after three years, the next one will be the foreign king. In this way, everyone will have a share, which is definitely the fairest! "Sixth Elder said.
"Then who will be the first? If the ranking is based on the order of the elders, then wouldn't I have to wait until twenty-one years before I can sit on the position of the foreign king? Isn't that too unfair to me?" Eight The elder said.
"So we can draw lots, and for the sake of fairness, after everyone takes a turn, they draw lots again to determine the order of becoming the outer king. In this way, there is nothing fair or unfair. It all depends on your own luck!" said the Sixth Elder.
"This method is acceptable, but if the inner dynasty calls the king from outside, wouldn't we be different every time we go to the inner dynasty?" the great elder said.
Although going to the inner court may not always be a good thing, but if something good happens, wouldn't it be the person who becomes the outer king who makes a lot of money?
"What does this have to do with it? It's just different if it's different? Anyway, the inner court doesn't care who the outer king is, as long as enough tribute taxes are paid within the specified period." said the Sixth Elder.
"But what if the inner court wants to distribute rewards to the outer king? For example, when I was the outer king, I made a contribution to the inner court, and the outer king wants to give me a reward. But when the rewards are distributed, I have already stepped down. So does this reward belong to you or to me?" the great elder said.
If there is no profit, then there is no problem with everyone's constant rotation.
But once major interests were involved, he didn't believe that everyone would still behave like this.
When someone else takes over, all the benefits will be attributed to him alone. Then won’t the person who made the contribution suffer a big loss?
"Then let's make an agreement first. Whoever makes the contribution will get the reward? This has nothing to do with who is the foreign king?
If it is a joint contribution made by all of us over a period of time, then the rewards given to us by the inner court will be equally divided, so there will be no question of who takes advantage! "The Sixth Elder replied again.
"Well, whoever's contribution counts as his. Two people have made contributions during their reign. If there is a reward in the inner dynasty, then two people will share it. If there are four people, then four people will share it.
If it is everyone, then everyone will share, and it has nothing to do with who is the foreign king at that time! "The third elder said.
"Okay! It's settled then. If everyone is willing to do this, I'm willing to give it a try!" said the second elder.
"I am willing too, but it is a bit early to say this now. Do we have to find out first whether the foreign king is really seriously injured?" the fifth elder reminded.
“This matter will be left to me, but before that, everyone had better be prepared.
If possible, we'd better attack Wai Wang's Mansion before tomorrow, otherwise, if we wait one more day, Wai Wang's injuries may recover even more, which is not good for us! "The fourth elder said.
"That's right. If it can be confirmed tonight that the outer king is seriously injured, then we will take action tonight and get the matter done early to avoid a long night and many dreams!" The great elder also agreed.
"Well, let's all go back and prepare! As soon as the Fourth Brother has news, he will immediately notify everyone to start a war against the City Lord's Mansion!" said the second elder.
"Okay!" Several elders nodded and hurried back to the house with excitement, excitement, anticipation and anxiety.
Once this matter is done, good times will come for everyone, so everyone hopes that the plan will go smoothly.
However, while the eight elders were plotting to become the outer king, Cheng Yu was also plotting against the eight principal elders.
"Listen carefully. Tomorrow you go and invite the eight elders to the back mountain. Then you will lead the entire outer palace to guard the back mountain. No one from the eight elders will be allowed to enter the back mountain. Do you understand?" Cheng Yu In the outer palace's own residence, everyone began to be arranged.
"Please rest assured, King Wai, we have arranged for everyone, and we are just waiting for you to invite the eight chief elders!" said the leader.
"Very good, you go down first!" Cheng Yu nodded and waved his hand.
As long as the eight chief elders are taken care of, there will be no problems in this foreign court!
boom!
But at this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from outside the Prince's Mansion!
