Forty Millenniums of Cultivation

Chapter 2309 Unexpected Evidence!

His laughter was like a rotten crow, unspeakably eerie.

If Li Yao was really an immortal cultivator, a revolutionary, and had any ambitions for supreme power, he would definitely be horrified.

"It's useless, even if you can wipe out all the four major elector families, it's useless to rule the empire by yourself. At that time, you will have to face all the problems I face today, and you will have to eat until I have had enough." suffering!"

Dongfang Wang's eyes were full of strong sarcasm and hearty hatred, "There are hundreds of worlds, each world has its own interests; tens of thousands of resource planets, all the cultivators are secretly fighting against you, and they are fighting against you again." You use the cover to seek benefits for yourself; apart from you, no one cares about the fate of the empire. Even you yourself will degenerate under the erosion of power, and soon become unrecognizable and bloated. In the end, like today Just like me, I watched myself being swallowed by the sea of ​​stars and going to perish!

"At that time, hahahaha, then I will watch you in the depths of the Nine Netherworld, to see how you repeat the same mistakes and struggle to the death, hahahahahaha!"

Dongfangwang was out of breath from laughing, and then coughed violently, coughing up a large black blood clot, or maybe it wasn't a blood clot, but fragments of internal organs.

Li Yao was really worried that he would suddenly die laughing with a smile, and hurriedly said: "Prime Minister Dongfang, don't get excited, let's talk slowly if you have something to say, in fact, I personally agree with your point of view, and think that no matter the reformist or the four major families There is no future, but they are going to perish in different ways. At most, one dies a little faster and the other dies a little slower, but in the end they can't escape the word death! What you said just now is so profound, it really enlightened me , Mao Sai suddenly opened up!"

Dongfang Wang was dumbfounded, and after a long while he moved his lips: "...What, you, you are 'Vulture Li Yao', aren't you a reformist?"

"Uh, I'm a more progressive young man among the reformers, let's just call it 'the reformers of the reformers'."

Li Yaodao, "My identity is not the point. The point is that these air-to-air theories are too illusory, and it's useless to talk about them at length. Everyone is very busy. If you don't have anything to do, why don't you just do it first? I'll just do it." Don't bother you and die slowly, by the way, you are the former prime minister of the empire, if you have any last words, I can help you take them out."

Dongfang Wang's eyes rolled around and around, as if he was carefully pondering Li Yao's identity and the meaning of his words.

However, in his current situation, he didn't have the slightest bargaining chip at all, and he had no other choice except to trust Li Yao.

"etc!"

Dongfangwang breathed hard, barely straightened his back, a faint flash of electricity flashed in his eyes, and the 1% demeanor of the former "iron-blooded prime minister" filled his almost withered body again.

"Tell me, Li Yao the Vulture."

Dongfangwang looked at Li Yao eagerly, "For you, Li Linghai and the empire, which one is more important?"

Li Yao looked directly at Dongfang Wang, and said without hesitation: "I am a true patriot. Of course, the empire is more important. No matter how bad the empire is today, I don't want to see it fall apart. If the empire really collapses, it will definitely cause more damage. Great chaos, as you just said, human civilization is divided into dozens or hundreds of small countries, conquering and destroying each other, and this has not taken into account the factor of the Holy League!

"So, it is precisely because Her Highness the Queen is the leader of the Reformation faction that I am loyal to her, and because your four major elector families first created the 'Blood Alliance Incident' in an attempt to completely kill the Reformation faction, we had no choice but to fight back , and you are the enemy of the Prime Minister of the East!"

Dongfang Wang sneered a few times, and asked again: "General Lei Chenghu was also rescued by you, right?"

Li Yao nodded: "That's right, I entered the Shenwei Prison single-handedly and rescued Liaohaihou Lei Chenghu!"

Dongfang Wang's eyes became brighter and his thinking became clearer, and his voice was louder and more stable than before: "Okay, even if I die, I must let you know something, please help me tell Lei General."

Li Yao regained his energy and knew that the key was coming. He hurriedly looked towards Dongfang and injected a soft spiritual energy into his body, and injected him with a medical potion to temporarily delay the collapse of his body and soul: "Prime Minister Dongfang, please tell me, I am all ears, and I vowed to my heart demon that I will help you bring the words to General Lei Chenghu."

"Okay, listen to me clearly"

Dongfangwang moved his head closer, almost putting his bright eyes into Li Yao's face. His face was distorted, he gritted his teeth, and said word by word, "I may have done a lot of things that violated the laws of the empire. The peripheral forces of the empire, wanting to ensure the long-term rule of the four major families, especially the Dongfang family, are not fair to the miscellaneous army commanded by Lei Chenghu. They often use them as cannon fodder, and even thought about annexing his power countless times, including I have done things like "cannibalism and cultivation".

"Yes, I did all of this. I admit it. From your standpoint, it's not an exaggeration to say that I'm a 'heinous sin', but the 'Blood League Incident' is indeed not my doing!"

This time, it was Li Yao's turn to be stunned: "What, the blood alliance incident was not your trick?"

"No, although Dongfang Tuo, the president of the Imperial Expansion Bank, and I have some conflicts within the family, and our ideas are not in line with each other, including during the Empire Strikes Back, in order to squeeze out more resources, I exerted a lot of pressure on him , so that the relationship between each other was frozen to the freezing point, but he is a dignified veteran of the empire after all, how could I assassinate him in public?"

Dongfang Wang said with a wry smile, "Besides, just three days before he was assassinated, I had secretly negotiated a package agreement with him, transferring part of the benefits, and letting his private consortium deeply participate in the post-war reconstruction. Big boon to him!

"Everyone has clearly reached an agreement, why is there any need to fight to the death?"

Li Yao turned his mind and said, "Why didn't anyone know about such an important matter beforehand, and why didn't you justify yourself?"

"This is a secret agreement, and there are many shady places."

Dongfang Wang blushed slightly, and said, "The benefits of post-war reconstruction are not given to him for free, but he is exchanged for the rights and interests of the Imperial Development Bank. This is a big matter, how can it be made public?"

Li Yao understood instantly.

Although Dongfang Tuo, the elder of the empire who was assassinated, is the president of the Imperial Development Bank, it does not mean that the Imperial Development Bank is his private property. He is just a leader, and at most holds a certain amount of shares.

Using the power in his hands, secretly dig out the interests of the Empire Development Bank, transfer these interests to Dongfangwang here for a while, and then transfer them back to Dongfangtuo's private consortium, then 100% will belong to him. Everyone is really happy.

Of course, the other shareholders and stakeholders of the Imperial Development Bank will never allow Dongfang Tuo to poach his own corner in this way. Naturally, this package agreement must be kept secret.

Dongfang Wang groped hard for a while, took out a Qiankun ring, and said intermittently: "The secret agreement between me and Dongfang Tuo is all in it, and there are two drops of our hard work, and our soul imprint as signatures, but I want to add it. Sin, there is nothing to worry about, since everyone wants me to die, what is the use of "conclusive" evidence? I have already lost my reputation, and even real evidence will be said to be forged, and I will rashly defend myself , Instead wasting a good card.

"I can only hold back until someone who is likely to believe in me appears and falls into the right hands. This agreement can prove that I have absolutely no motive to assassinate Dongfang Tuo. It is absolutely possible to assassinate another elder of the empire, not the Dongfang Tuo who was finally recruited!"

Li Yao held the Qiankun Ring in his palm, and the thoughts deep in his mind were like a storm, causing waves.

"Also, I didn't intend to put General Lei Chenghu under house arrest at the beginning. After all, he is the supreme commander of the third war zone, the commander of the Thunder Fleet, and he has such great prestige in the expeditionary force. If he is not fully prepared, he will be punished." military power? I wouldn't be so confused!"

Dongfang Wang panted, "But someone below will kill him first and then play later. I didn't receive the news until he was under house arrest for two days. At this time, rumors have spread on the front line, and General Lei Chenghu's prejudice against the Senate and me cannot be eliminated. It's a done deal." Naturally, I can't go back to the mountain again, and let him go back to the frontline troops, so I can only bite the bullet and put him under house arrest until the end."

"You didn't plan the blood alliance incident, and you didn't want General Lei Chenghu to be placed under house arrest?"

Li Yao frowned and said, "Don't forget, General Lei Chenghu is your son, and Dongfang Bai, the leader of the 'Guangtong', personally arrested him and put him under house arrest. Could it be that you were taken away by your own son?"

"Birth son, hehehehe, what is a biological son compared to the interests and power that spread across Xinghai?"

Dongfangwang laughed worse than crying, "I just can't figure it out. I am already the prime minister of the empire, and Dongfang Bai also became the director of the 'Guangtong' at a young age. He is one of my favorite sons. First, for him, isn’t the biggest benefit for me to help me consolidate the current situation, and even help me go further? One day I am the prime minister, and he is one day the director of the "Guangtong" bureau. It is not good for him to make it like this what good?

"How much interest and power does it take to seduce him to make him betray me without hesitation, and why does he believe in that person so much, that after I step down and the Dongfang family falls apart, he will still be able to stand tall, even better than me?" How about a step higher today?"

Li Yao said: "That person? Who?"

Dongfang Wang said coldly: "Naturally, it is the person who really planned the blood alliance event and put General Lei Chenghu under house arrest. Our Queen, Li Linghai!"
