MTL - Male Inferiority and Female Supremacy in the World of Immortal Cultivation-Chapter 658 657. This is different from what was promised
Chapter 658 657. This is different from what was agreed
Morgan took the two princes to meet a group of court mages.
This group of court mages are all Morgan's confidantes, and they have clearly stated that they will support the two princes.
This made the two princes who had no political power very happy.
Court mages are also an indispensable and undervalued force in kingdom politics, and their support is crucial.
The old king wants to hand over this power to his eldest son Adams through Morgan's assistance to ensure that he will not be overwhelmed by the nobles after registration.
As a result, Morgan transferred this power to the other two princes.
Of course, this is not without cost. Therefore, the two princes can only obey Morgan, and cannot escape his help and constraints.
Under Morgan's needlework, the two princes began to connect with the nobles.
Originally, it was impossible for these two brats to get any attention if they wanted power but no money, but it was different when they had the support of the court mage.
And the two of them, under Morgan's orders, promised the nobles great benefits, promising to hand over many rights that originally belonged to the king after they got the throne.
This extremely important benefit has really moved many people, and made those who are on the fence and those who are waiting to stand in line.
The entire king began to have an undercurrent, but the old king knew nothing about it, because Morgan was in charge of his source of information.
Morgan directly blocked all news, and the old king and eldest prince Adams who lived in the deep palace knew nothing about what was happening outside.
Fang Zhou and Aya watched Morgan's actions silently, and did not try to stop them, just protecting the safety of the eldest prince.
During this period, the two princes even secretly poisoned the eldest prince without telling Morgan, but they were all secretly stopped by the ark.
The two of them were still puzzled as to why they hadn't succeeded, and then they continued to work hard. They failed to succeed in poisoning more than a dozen times from the beginning to the end.
After half a year, the private connection between the two princes was finally completed, and at least two-thirds of the nobles in the entire capital had exchanged benefits with them.
Coupled with the support of at least half of the court mages, this is already the advantage of the flying dragon riding on the face. Morgan, including the two princes, can't imagine that there is any possibility of losing to the lonely eldest prince.
After preparing for more than half a year, Morgan also started to implement the plan.
Picking a suitable one, Morgan took the two princes to the old king's bedroom.
He prepared a cup of refreshing black tea, asked the two princes to poison the tea personally, and served it to the old king.
This is to completely drag the two princes into trouble. If the notoriety of patricide spreads, even if they get the throne, they will be kicked out.
The two princes are trembling, one side is their father who loves them more than others, and the other side is the supreme throne.
Finally, the desire in the hearts of the two overcame the family affection, and they entered the bedroom with poisoned tea.
Not long after, the two princes came out in panic.
Of course the poisoned tea would not kill them immediately, otherwise they would be too suspicious, but the old king who drank the poisoned tea was still in a daze, and the two princes ran out in fright.
Morgan left the palace with the two princes and waited outside for news. He had already bribed the king's attendants, and he would not announce the death of the old king until midnight.
When the time comes, Morgan will directly bring the two princes in, forge the will of the old king, pass the throne to the second prince, and directly kick out the eldest prince who is still in the dark.
This is Morgan's long-term plan, and the coup is just the last insurance.
At midnight, a scream suddenly resounded throughout the palace.
Morgan waited for a while, and then hurried into the palace with the two princes, and walked quickly all the way to the old king's bedroom.
The old king lay quietly on the bed, his face pale, and several attendants knelt beside him tremblingly.
The two princes looked at their father who had been poisoned, and they panicked for a while, their eyes fluttered with guilt, and they didn't know where to put their hands and feet.
Morgan frowned and glanced at the two of them, then stretched out his hand and slapped them twice.
"Why hit us?"
The two princes covered their faces, dumbfounded.
Morgan gritted his teeth in a tone of hatred for iron and steel: "Cry for me!"
Father died right in front of you, who are you two trying to show your guilty conscience?
Both stupid pigs are smarter than you!
The two men came to their senses, and rushed to the old king, howling together.
Morgan looked at the face of his friend for decades, and said silently in his heart, "Don't blame me, you are the one who blocked my pursuit of the truth!"
He was about to turn around and order his attendants to find all the ministers who were biased towards him.
Although the old king did not leave a will until his death, as the chief court mage, he would have it if he said so, and no one would doubt his authority.
As long as the matter is finalized with a few ministers, the second prince will be pushed directly to the throne, and a few attendants will be disposed of afterwards, and the matter will be successfully completed.
Just before Morgan started to implement it, there was a rush of footsteps outside the bedroom.
Morgan's expression changed, and he turned around abruptly, only to see the panic-stricken eldest prince Adams rushing in.
Behind Adams, there are many current ministers, and these high-ranking ministers are all on the side of Adams.
Those who have exchanged interests with the two princes, none of them!
Morgan's eyes instantly showed a stern look. An insider leaked the news secretly, and even targeted him.
As soon as Adams came in and saw his dead father, he was struck by lightning, and walked slowly step by step. When he reached the bedside, tears were streaming down his face.
The other ministers also mourned with red and swollen eyes.
Morgan's mind was running at high speed, constantly guessing who leaked the news.
Even if the news leaked out, he didn't arrive here so soon, but he ordered the guards to seal the palace gate.
Unless Adams and these ministers had received the news before the death of the old king, they would arrive in advance with Morgan and others.
Morgan is still guessing who is the ghost here, and several ministers over there have begun to ask the attendants whether the old king left a will before his death.
These ministers did not ask Morgan, but instead asked the attendants. It was obvious that they did not trust the chief court mage.
In the past six months, Morgan helped the two princes to exchange benefits. Although the old king was deceived, the ministers knew it clearly.
It's just that they can't guess what the old king really thinks, and they don't dare to expose it rashly.
Morgan watched coldly, these attendants were almost all his people, they would never talk nonsense, and finally had to ask him.
"No, the king left no will."
Morgan's thoughts had just arisen when the attendants gave him a slap in the face.
The chief court mage was shocked, staring at these attendants with a murderous gaze.
How dare you say that?
The ministers ignored him. Since the old king did not leave any will, the person who inherited the throne according to the rules was the eldest prince Adams.
Morgan was left alone, and no one asked for his opinion.
The two princes looked at him with help-seeking eyes. Why is this different from what was agreed?
