Secret Wilderness!
When he heard this, the prime minister kept silent for a long while and then said, "I am thinking for the future of the Fire Empire. The Illusion Realm Competition is held once every five thousand years and our Fire Empire can't afford to lose. I am the prime minister of the Fire Empire, so I have to think for everyone. That's right, with one order, a few billion people might die in the Secret Wilderness, but I am saving the future of 100 billion people."
"I have to admit that you are a good prime minister, a qualified prime minister. But you and I can never be friends." The king said expressionlessly.
"I know, I just understand that being close to a ruler is like being close to a tiger. That's why I've never practiced any combat skills. Even if it's my two sons, I won't allow them to be promoted. Even if they risked their lives to earn their merits, I've never allowed them to continue being promoted. Because I understand that merits frighten the ruler. Your term of office is less than a thousand years, right? When you step down, the crown prince will take over. If I leave behind an excuse, I'll only cause the death of my entire family." The Prime Minister said emotionally.
That's right.
He was the prime minister of a country.
He knew the way of being with a king.
If he used his power for personal gain, if his merits scared the king, if he raised troops and made friends with nobles, then when the new king took over, he would definitely get rid of those old fellows who were a threat.
That was why he was really careful and didn't leave an excuse for anyone.
"My Prime Minister, you are very smart, very smart. The old King once gave the order that as long as you stay in the Flame Empire, then you will be the Prime Minister of the Flame Empire. But if you have any thoughts of leaving the Flame Empire, then you will be killed. At that time, I didn't understand what it meant, but after interacting with you, I realized that if you go to other countries, you will definitely be a terrifying opponent." The King walked in front of the Prime Minister.
"Thank you for your trust." The prime minister said.
"Don't worry. When I step down, I will pass these words to my son, who is the current Crown Prince. You and everyone in the Prime Minister's residence will be safe, including this time. I will tell the Crown Prince about this matter and ask him not to make things difficult for the Prime Minister's residence." The King patted the Prime Minister's shoulder.
The prime minister bowed, "King, I have another reason for coming here."
"En?"
"I want to find a genius for the Fire Empire, an expert who might even help the Fire Empire participate in the Illusion Realm Competition." The prime minister said.
"Who is it?" asked the king.
"Our Prime Minister's grandson-in-law, Xiatian!" The Prime Minister said.
"Are you trying to protect your grandson-in-law? Is that why you're saying all this?" the king asked the prime minister.
"No." The Prime Minister shook his head.
"Prime Minister, you have contributed greatly to our Blazing Empire, so of course I will protect you. However, the Crown Prince is my eldest son, and also the future master of the Blazing Empire. I have to give him a reason to vent his anger, right? Just give up on your grandson-in-law. You haven't known him for long anyway. Just treat it as a trade item, "the King said directly.
"No, Your Majesty, he has the Lava Essence, which is ranked tenth on the Divine Fire List," the Prime Minister said directly.
"What?" The King was stunned.
"Moreover, his control over flames is extremely terrifying. He is also very bold. It would be best if the Crown Prince didn't do anything to him. If he really did, I can't guarantee that this genius of the Blaze Empire won't do anything to the Crown Prince. I can't guarantee that he won't become the enemy of the Blaze Empire in the future. I can't guarantee that he won't become the opponent of the Blaze Empire in the future."
"Why are you only telling me this now?" The King looked unhappy.
"I just felt that it was strange and familiar, but I couldn't be sure. Your Majesty also said that you and I can never be friends, so I have to give you accurate information before coming to you. Otherwise, you won't believe me. I have been looking for information these days." The Prime Minister said.
"Let's go. It seems that I have to go personally this time. Prime Minister, you always give me surprises." The King said.
"Is it a surprise or a surprise?" The Prime Minister Asked.
"It depends on whether we are late or not. If we are late, it will be a surprise." The King smiled.
The King went personally.
Of course, there were guards around him.
This was especially true for the two people who were following the king. These two people's backgrounds were not small. As long as one was a famous expert, one would recognize them with a single glance. Many people would even run away when they saw them.
Inside the Crown Prince's Palace.
"Oh my god, such a big commotion!" The Prime Minister was stunned when he saw the huge flame alchemy furnace.
"Break the alchemy furnace." The King glanced at the person on the left.
"Okay!" That person nodded.
Then, he pointed at the alchemy furnace with his left hand.
Pop!
The alchemy furnace shattered.
"The person inside has a strong control over fire. Your Majesty, why don't you leave first?" That person said.
"No, I am here to find someone, not to fight." The King said and walked straight in.
When they walked in, they saw the Crown Prince's subordinates were burnt all over.
Those people were in a very sorry state right now.
It was as if they were roasted by fire.
Although the Crown Prince wasn't injured, he was obviously shocked.
"Xiatian, are you okay?" The Prime Minister hurriedly ran over.
However, when he saw Xiatian sitting on the lounge chair with his legs crossed and drinking, he knew that Xiatian was fine.
"Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty, Father!"
Those people were all very respectful.
"Are you done?" The King Asked the Crown Prince.
"Your Majesty, I …"
"Alright, take a look at yourself. How are you going to take over my position in the future with that little heart of yours? How can you be the next King? "The King reprimanded.
"Your Majesty, I know I was wrong."
"It's good that you know you were wrong. Apologize to Mr. Xia." The King said directly.
Apologize!
The Crown Prince was stunned when he heard this.
He was the Crown Prince of the Fire Empire. Now, the King wanted him to apologize to an ordinary person.
"Your Majesty, I …"
"Apologize!" The King's face turned cold.
"Mr. Xia, I'm sorry!!" The Crown Prince saw the King's attitude and could only apologize.
"There's nothing to be sorry about. No matter what, a bottle of wine is enough. If one bottle isn't enough, then two bottles. Of course, the prerequisite is that you don't cross my bottom line." Xiatian's face showed a smile.
"Mr. Xia, I have a lot of good wine. I wonder if you can come with me?" The King Asked.
