After rebirth, one gold coin bought the Elf Princess

"The worst plan is simple. Show him a flaw and let him do it in front of everyone. Then the alliance between us will be triggered and I will kill him."

Roland smiled and said, "You don't have to feel any psychological pressure. Even if Green has experts, can they be stronger than the Goblins?"

Of course not.

Lily saluted Roland again, her voice exceptionally calm.

"My life is in the hands of Mr. Roland!"

Volume 209: The City of Freedom: Chapter : Fighting Rumors with Rumors

While Roland was acting as Kong Ming and giving advice to Lily, Green was also gathering his confidants to discuss countermeasures.

You can't hide the look in your eyes when you want to stab someone.

After a brief glance at his sister, Green knew that she knew everything and was determined to fight him to the end.

They are siblings. Although they do not have the same mother, they have had many interactions and know each other very well.

Especially after Lily replaced him as the new crown prince, his understanding of his sister grew day by day.

He is twelve years older than Lily and has been the crown prince for more than ten years. He has always been trained as the heir to the throne and has received elite education in governing the country.

Over the past decade or so, with his father's tacit approval, more and more people have gathered around him, and a small group has long been formed.

These people include backbones of the military, frustrated ministers, and ambitious businessmen.

They are all people who are unwilling to accept the fact that they are not valued by their father.

Since you can't get what you want from the previous king, invest in the new king in advance.

A very reasonable investment idea.

The old king did not object to Green establishing his own team. According to the rules of the Oro Kingdom, the king's term of office is ten years, which can be renewed twice or he can retire early.

His son built up a team in advance so that he could take over smoothly after retirement.

However, an incident that occurred more than a year ago made the old king change his mind and he changed his heir.

Fortunately, he still has several years left in his term, which is enough time for Lily to build a team and for Green's team to disperse.

Whether he leaves office at the end of his term or lives a few more years before dying, Green will lose the political capital to seek power and cause chaos.

It’s a pity that the old king died at an awkward time.

Lily had no team, almost no ministers who listened to her orders, and no foundation in the army. Her prestige in the army was not even as high as that of her sister Lucy, who led troops in two battles.

She is just a bare crown prince.

Just as she was preparing to gradually build up her team, the old king died as expected.

A fourth-rank strongman died inexplicably at the age of over fifty. This matter itself is shrouded in doubt, and his death directly led to the old crown prince becoming stronger than the new crown prince.

If this dangerous situation is not handled properly, the Kingdom of Oro may fall into internal strife or even civil war.

Green's trusted team all knew that this was a critical moment and gathered very quickly.

Soon, seven or eight members of the Great Prince's Party with serious faces walked into the meeting room.

After using magic to block out the noise, Green did not greet everyone, but simply stated the current situation directly.

After saying this, he turned his gaze directly to his chief strategist, Meier.

"Mr. Meier, what do you think?"

The skinny middle-aged man who had been silent all this time suddenly raised his head and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, we have no choice but to kill Lily in the Senate and eliminate all her supporters."

Green's breathing became a little rapid and his heartbeat was accelerating.

"Wait, Mr. Meier, you said to do it in the Senate?"

His voice trembled slightly and his eyes widened.

"Yes, the Senate."

"The Senate is a sacred place. It's inappropriate to assassinate here," Green asked softly.

"What else? Do you intend to fight a brutal street battle in the royal city and the royal palace, or a protracted civil war throughout the country?"

Mel's eyes were exceptionally cold, and his voice was filled with murderous intent.

"Your Highness, only by taking action behind closed doors in the Senate can we minimize the damage to the country."

"Only in this way can we catch all her followers."

"At this critical moment, her followers will definitely go to the Senate together to protect her."

Meier snorted and said coldly: "Is there a better time than this?"

Green hesitated.

The Kingdom of Oro has existed for more than three eras, and there have been countless fights and even sacred duels in the Senate, but no one has ever directly staged a coup here.

"If I kill someone in the Senate without a proper reason, even if I succeed, the elders will not accept me as the successor."

Mel sneered and said, "So what if they don't accept it? The previous king only had three children. As long as the other candidates are killed, you are the only option. Do they want to see the purest bloodline of the Oro family cut off?"

Green was speechless for a moment.

Taking action in the Senate is indeed the best option, but he is destined to be infamous in history.

"Is there no other way?"

Green sighed.

"Of course, we give up and surrender."

Mel said in a deep voice:

"We surrender to Her Highness Lily. She won't use us, but she won't kill us either. We can get by with the support of our family, but what about you, Your Highness?"

"Even if she is vindictive, it will only target us personally, and the family will not be harmed. But what about you, Your Highness?"

"Can she let go of the hatred that drove the sorcerer to assassinate me?"

Green fell silent.

Seeing that Green was slow to express his opinion, Mel stood up and walked out.

Green looked over in shock and asked in surprise, "Where is Mr. Meier going?"

"I will surrender to Her Majesty Lily! I am the first one to surrender, and I may even be treated as a valuable horse bone."

Green's face looked very ugly.

Mel certainly wasn't going to surrender, he was just warning him not to hesitate any longer.

He shouted softly and stopped Mel.

"Mr. Mel, I know what to do, but you have to help me think of a reasonable reason."

"A reason to bring this matter to a dignified end."

Mel stopped and turned slowly.

Seeing the murderous intent flashing in Green's eyes, he knew that Green no longer had any worries and finally felt a little relieved.

As a counselor, what you fear most is not a brainless leader, but a weak-willed person who is indecisive and afraid of everything.

If Green hadn't sent the assassin, there might have been a chance for reconciliation...

No, there is no room for reconciliation even if the assassins are not sent.

Mel met the old king only a few days before his sudden death.

He looks energetic and has a rosy complexion, and he doesn't look like he will have a short life.

How could such a person die suddenly?

Mel didn't dare to ask, nor did he need to ask.

It doesn't matter how the old king died; what matters is who benefited from it.

If Lily comes to power, Green will be liquidated, and no one present will be able to escape.

Now that Green has made up his mind, everyone present has a backbone.

They began to think divergently and brainstorm according to Green's request.

Killing is difficult, but finding a reasonable and legal reason for killing is even more difficult.

Lily is the crown princess, and unless something major happens, she is the legal heir.

It would take a solid reason to overthrow her.

"That woman is too young to handle the responsibility!"

Someone suggested.

The proposal was quickly rejected.

Lily has grown up and has demonstrated good political skills, performing well in several events she has participated in.

Even if she is temporarily incapable of governing the country, she should be assisted by ministers and members of the royal family until she is capable.

"I have already said that I would issue an edict to change the successor. It is not too late now."

Someone muttered.

His ideas were quickly drowned out by opposition.

Forging an imperial edict would only leave unnecessary evidence.

What Green needs is a reason, not something to catch him.

The Senate holds great power and will not tolerate such a habit.

Everyone was talking about it, but no one could find a suitable reason.

Just as Mel was about to stand up and persuade Green not to waste time and take action directly, someone sighed and muttered:

"That woman is not going to have an affair with Roland, that scoundrel. This bastard is not easy to deal with."

Mel stood up suddenly, his eyes lighting up.

"Pollock, what did you say?"

The person named by Mel was startled by his fanatical eyes and stammered, "I said that Roland is a bastard that is not easy to deal with."

"last sentence."

"Could that woman be having an affair with Roland?"

"Yes, that's it!"

Mel laughed and said, "We have to let everyone know."

Green frowned and reminded softly: "I know Lily, she is not that kind of person."

"Your Highness, she is this kind of person, and she must be this kind of person!"

Mel reminded in a deep voice, looking at Green with a look of disappointment.

Green was stunned for several seconds, then suddenly realized.

It is easy to spread rumors but difficult to dispel them.

There is nothing between Lily and Roland, will ordinary people believe it?

What is Roland? A king with three crowns, a human hero who defeated the dirty goblins!

If there wasn't some shameful relationship between him and Lily, how could he escort her personally?

The most terrifying rumor is the "fact" that everyone is willing to believe.

After figuring this out, Green's mind, which had been away for a while, finally came back to him.

He quickly issued orders, asking his subordinates to spread rumors and invite and hire experts.

He himself will not be idle.

During this period, he had to visit several more senators to prepare for the debate in the Senate.

...

While Green was busy making preparations, Roland fell into deep thought.
