At midnight, at the entrance of the Camel Kingdom's Rose Palace.
It was even livelier than the red carpet.
More importantly, the palace gate was in a mess, and no one from Rose Palace came out to take care of it.
A group of reporters surrounded Clayton and the others, their mouths firing like cannons.
" Mr. Clayton, what do you think about Mr. Jiang Chen's succession to the throne?"
"Mr. Clayton, is there an emergency? Why did you come to see Mr. Jiang Chen at this time?”
"Mr. Clayton, what is your comment on the high-level meeting between the Dragon and Luo yesterday?”
Interestingly, from the logo on their clothes, it was easy to tell that some of them belonged to the Dragon Country's National News Channel, while the other part belonged to the Camel Kingdom's National News Channel.
The reporters from the Camel Kingdom were better off. Most of them stood in the distance and frantically held the shutter of their cameras to record the entire process.
On the other hand, the reporters from the Dragon Country were not so easy to deal with. While they were talking into the microphone, their mouths were also unforgiving.
All sorts of questions with buffs were thrown at him.
Seeing this scene, no matter how stupid Clayton was, he understood what was going on.
He had been tricked.
To be precise, the trap he had set for Jiang Chen had been seen through by Jiang Chen.
Otherwise, Rose Palace would not have been able to find so many reporters to wait for them in just twenty minutes.
It was obvious that Jiang Chen had seen through Clayton's plot. He had deliberately asked the reporters to guard the palace gate, in case Clayton launched a sneak attack.
As long as Clayton did not enter the Rose Palace without the presence of a third-party media.
Then Jiang Chen would still be able to clear his name.
How ruthless.
He had deliberately waited until midnight to come.
Are you really going to let a bunch of reporters wait until midnight?
Jiang Chen, I underestimated you.
At this moment, facing the large group of reporters around him, Clayton forcefully controlled his expression and did not let himself go berserk.
At the same time, he thought that Jiang Chen, his opponent, was on a higher level.
He had underestimated Jiang Chen.
This twenty-five-year-old young man was far more cunning than his peers.
however
Clayton looked at the large group of reporters from the Dragon Country around him and could not help but reveal a seemingly harmless smile.
If you think that finding a group of reporters will solve today's trouble?
Then I'm afraid you're underestimating me, the Secretary of State.
...
At this moment, facing a large group of reporters, Clayton's bodyguards were also anxious. They were deeply afraid that there would be an accident if there were too many people. They hurriedly hugged Clayton and forcefully pushed the reporters away, wanting to protect Clayton into the Rose Palace.
Beside him, Clayton's assistant hurriedly blocked the bullets and took the initiative to draw the firepower for Clayton.
" Dear reporters, if you have any questions, you can ask them via email or phone, or make an appointment in advance. We do not accept direct interviews…"
Clayton was about to enter Rose Palace under the protection of his bodyguards.
But suddenly, Clayton's hand was placed on the shoulder of a security guard.
"Stop, I want to talk…"
Clayton's voice wasn't loud, but as the focus of the crowd, the entire Rose Palace seemed to have been silenced as soon as he spoke.
The group of Dragon Country reporters clearly did not react. Clayton was really going to reply to the media?
No, why did you reply?
You barged into the palace at night and wanted to mess around, causing a misunderstanding between the Dragon Kingdom and the Camel Kingdom.
The lice on this baldy's head were obvious.
If it weren't for us, you would have succeeded today.
Now that they had been collectively captured, they should have run away.
You still want to talk?
What are you talking about?
Not to mention the reporters from the Dragon Country, even Clayton's assistant was stunned for two seconds before he hurriedly came to Clayton's side and whispered.
"Sir, it's not appropriate for us to say anything now…"
Before the assistant could finish, Clayton raised his hand to stop him.
At the same time, the smile on his face, which was used to deal with reporters, became even brighter.
Seeing Clayton's smile, the assistant seemed to have guessed something. He immediately heaved a sigh of relief and took the initiative to retreat to the side.
When the bodyguards who received the order heard that Clayton was about to speak, they took the initiative to spread out and control the reporters a few meters away, leaving Clayton with space to speak.
At this moment, the entrance of the palace was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
The group of reporters stopped asking questions and picked up their microphones to listen to the sound. They all wanted to see what tricks Clayton was playing.
Not far away, the guards at the entrance of the palace noticed that something was wrong.
Through the invisible earpiece in his ear, he hurriedly informed the higher-ups of this scene to prevent any accidents from happening so that the higher-ups could have time to react.
At the same time, he stretched out his ears to hear what Clayton was saying.
Clayton, who was facing the reporters, smiled and maintained his usual gentlemanly demeanor. He even deliberately waved at the camera.
Then, under everyone's gaze, he finally spoke.
"I didn't expect our reporter friend to be so dedicated. This is the first time I've given a speech at midnight since I became Secretary of State.”
After saying a few words, Clayton changed the topic and looked at the reporter from the Dragon Country who had asked the most active questions just now.
"Just now, this reporter friend from the Dragon Country's National Channel asked me why I visited the Rose Palace so late at night.”
Hearing this, the reporter from the Dragon Country immediately sensed that something was wrong. As someone who had been working in the news for a long time, he had a bad feeling.
He felt that Clayton, this old fox, was up to something.
Instinctively, he wanted to leave this place, but in this situation, Clayton had already turned from a passive to an active one. He had no reason to leave.
He could only bite the bullet and stay here to deal with the changes.
Not only him, but the surrounding reporters from the Dragon Country also had the same feeling.
The Eagle Kingdom's Secretary of State, Clayton, was famous for his shrewdness. Even if he plucked out a strand of hair, it would be hollow.
In one sentence, there were eight hundred hearts.
If he took the initiative to speak, how could there be good words?
As expected, what Clayton said in the next second made the reporters of the Dragon Country turn pale with fright.
Clayton deliberately revealed a puzzled expression in response to his repeated question.
" I don't think you should ask me why I came to the Rose Palace at night. You should ask Mr. Jiang Chen…"
Clayton spread his hands as he spoke.
" I originally came to Camel Kingdom for a vacation in my personal capacity, but just now, when I was about to rest in the hotel, my assistant suddenly received a call from Rose Palace…"
"They said that the new king of the Camel Kingdom summoned me urgently for an urgent meeting.”
" Although I am very reluctant to part with my vacation, you all know that I have no choice but to give up my precious vacation to meet a king…"
When the reporters from the Dragon Country heard Clayton's explanation, they were all shocked.
Even if they all believed that Clayton's words were bullsh * t, they had no reason to refute.
They were the ones who had raised the question, and Clayton had answered them directly.
As for who called who and who wanted to meet who.
This kind of thing was simply impossible to explain with just one mouth.
This was troublesome. Mud fell into his pants. He couldn't explain it no matter what.
Now, it was useless no matter how much evidence he had.
No matter how much the higher-ups of the Dragon Kingdom trusted Jiang Chen, they knew that it was Clayton's trick.
He knew that the Eagle Kingdom wanted to cause trouble.
However, if a high-ranking official of the Dragon Country believed it, would all the high-ranking officials of the Dragon Country believe it?
As long as there was a trace of damage on a mirror, it would be impossible to restore it to its original state.
At this moment, facing Clayton's tricks, the reporter from before quickly realized the seriousness of the problem. He held the microphone and hurriedly asked again, trying to make up for it.
"Mr. Clayton…"
But before he could finish, Clayton hurriedly raised his hand and smiled.
"I'm sorry, everyone. My time is limited, so I can only answer the question just now.”
" I'm going to see Mr. Jiang Chen now. If you have any more questions, you can make an appointment with my assistant. Thank you.”
With that, Clayton did not give the reporters any chance to make things difficult. Under the protection of the bodyguards, he strode towards the door.
Only the reporters from the Dragon Country were left stunned on the spot.
At this moment, Clayton was smiling even more happily.
The question of who invited whom was not important.
He wasn't afraid that the reporters would investigate.
It would be fine if the Camel Palace didn't explain, but if they wanted to make the phone records public and prove that it was Clayton who had asked to see Jiang Chen on his own accord, it would be fine.
Hehe…Wouldn't that mean that there was no silver here?
If you don't have any ulterior motives, why are you busy proving it?
But if you don't prove it, you can only suffer.
At this moment, Clayton thought of Jiang Chen, and his heart was filled with disdain.
Little fellow, finding a group of uncrowned kings to block the door?
When I was playing this game, you weren't weaned yet?
You're definitely going to eat this pile of shit today.
If you don't eat it, I'll stuff it into your mouth and force it down your throat.
