"Prittwitz, tell me, who is it? Who is the mastermind behind all this?" Wilhelm II asked. Since instigating rebellion would not work, he had no other choice but to wait for a turning point. He firmly believes that this is his Empire. No matter who it is, it is impossible to overthrow him and take his Empire away from his hands.

"Your Majesty, you will know soon." Lieutenant General Prittwitz said with a smile on his face. The expression he looked at Wilhelm II was full of teasing. This look made Wilhelm II feel an unprecedented humiliation.

"Damn it, I must hang this guy to death!" Wilhelm II cursed in his heart. He secretly made up his mind that when he got out of trouble this time, he would hang Lieutenant General Prittwitz to let him know that Emperor of the Empire could not be insulted.

Wilhelm II fell silent, and Lieutenant General Prittwitz did not continue to tease him. After all, that was Emperor of the Empire, the person he once loyal to.

Time passed little by little, and the mutiny of Crown Prince Wilhelm and his accomplices went very smoothly. Before 12 o'clock in the evening, they had occupied the entire Berlin. At the same time, important places such as train stations and government buildings were also controlled by them.

In a secret manor on the outskirts of Berlin, Crown Prince Wilhelm and Eitel? Prince Friedrich are waiting here.

"Brother, why hasn't there been news yet?" Eitel? Prince Friedrich was a little out of breath. After all, this time they gambled their fortunes and lives. If they failed, they were doomed.

"Don't worry, there will be no problem!" Crown Prince Wilhelm seemed very calm. In other words, after experiencing a vegetative state, his whole person changed a lot, and he was no longer as irritable as before. Of course, another reason is that the mutiny has been launched and he has no way to retreat. Anyway, his right to inherit the throne has been lost. Even if it fails, the situation will not be worse than now. Once successful, he will be able to inherit the throne immediately. For Crown Prince Wilhelm, this is undoubtedly what he has always dreamed of. Crown Prince Wilhelm also believes that his luck will not be so bad every time. This time, they will definitely succeed.

"Your Highness, we succeeded. The entire Berlin has been controlled by us. The palace has also been captured by us." Marshal Goltz reported to Crown Prince Wilhelm with a smile on his face.

"Where is Father Emperor? How is he?" Crown Prince Wilhelm asked.

"Your Majesty has also been controlled." Marshal Goltz said.

"Haha, okay, that's great. Brother, we really succeeded!" Eitel? Prince Friedrich cheered loudly. The heart that had been hanging in the air finally returned to the stomach.

A smile also appeared on Crown Prince Wilhelm's face. At this moment, it was as if all the pressure in his body had disappeared without a trace. At the same time, a feeling of joy arose in his heart. He knew that he was one step closer to the throne.

"Your Highness, let's go to the palace. We need to have a showdown with Your Majesty immediately. If it's too late, I'm worried that the news will be leaked." Marshal Goltz said.

"Okay!" Crown Prince Wilhelm nodded.

The group of people rushed to the Berlin Palace by car.

After being pushed into the palace, Crown Prince Wilhelm couldn't help but become more and more nervous. After all, the person he wants to force to abdicate this time is his father. Wilhelm II has been very fond of him since he was a child. Although he is harsh sometimes, Crown Prince Wilhelm knows that it is for his own good. Wilhelm II has always wanted to train him to become a qualified emperor!

However, all this changed until Oscar suddenly emerged.

"The throne is mine, and no one can take it away. Even if that person is my father!" Crown Prince Wilhelm secretly made up his mind.

The door to the hall was opened, and Wilhelm II immediately looked there. He knew that the mastermind behind the scenes was about to appear.

However, when he saw clearly who those people were, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Moltke the Younger, his former chief of general staff and his playmate since childhood. Marshal Goltz, an army veteran, is his most important marshal. General Graf, another general of Imperial Guard, is also his trusted confidant. Duke of Württemberg, the leader of Kingdom of Württemberg, and Commander of the Imperial Army 4th Army Corps, are also his friends.

These people were all trusted by Wilhelm II. He didn't expect that these people would betray him.

Of course, what really shocked Wilhelm II was the man in the wheelchair and the man pushing the wheelchair. These two people are his sons. The person pushing the wheelchair was his second son, Eitel? Prince Friedrich. Sitting in a wheelchair is his eldest son, the former Imperial Crown Prince Prince.

Wilhelm II stood up from his position with a look of astonishment on his face.

"Prince, are you awake? When did you wake up? Why didn't I know?" Wilhelm II asked.

"My dear Father Emperor, aren't all your energy now focused on the war? You are about to become the emperor of the entire Europe. How can I, who has already lost my position as Crown Prince, be taken seriously by you?" Crown Prince Wilhelm looked sarcastic. Although, Wilhelm II is his father, a person he once respected. However, when he learned that his position as Crown Prince was lost, he no longer had any respect for Wilhelm II, but only resentment.

Wilhelm II couldn't help but blame himself. As Crown Prince Wilhelm slept longer and longer, he also lost confidence that Crown Prince Wilhelm would wake up. In addition, after the war broke out, he had a lot of military and political affairs to deal with, and indeed he no longer took care of Crown Prince Wilhelm. However, Crown Prince Wilhelm betrayed him and planned this mutiny, which was still unacceptable to him.

"Prince, Eitel, do you actually have the guts to plan a mutiny? Who gave you the courage? Take your people and leave here immediately. I can give you a lenient sentence. Otherwise, you should know the consequences!" Wilhelm II said sternly.

Eitel? Prince Friedrich was immediately frightened and almost wanted to turn around and run away. Even Crown Prince Wilhelm couldn't help but stagnate. But then he puffed up his chest again. After all, they have the upper hand now.

"Father Emperor, is there any use in saying that now? I advise you to recognize the reality clearly. You once said that the throne belongs to me. So, please write an abdication edict now and pass the throne to me!" Crown Prince Wilhelm looked at Wilhelm II, his eyes full of desire for the throne.
