Oscar's brows could not help but frown tightly. He also did not expect that at this time, Empress Victoria would still intercede for Crown Prince Wilhelm. After all, she saw her husband die at the gunpoint of Crown Prince Wilhelm with her own eyes!

Although, Oscar already knew it. Wilhelm II and Empress Victoria both love Crown Prince Wilhelm very much. He has always been trained as the successor of the Empire. However, you must know that what Crown Prince Wilhelm has committed now is the unforgivable crime of killing Father Emperor!

"Oskar, Prince was completely out of his mind to launch this rebellion. Killing Your Majesty was not his original intention. He was beaten by Your Majesty at that time, so he was angry He was so angry that he did things without thinking. In addition, he had just woken up from a vegetative state, so he committed such a serious crime. "Empress Victoria seemed not to notice Oscar's increasingly ugly face and continued to plead.

Although Empress Victoria also hated Crown Prince Wilhelm very much, he had already lost his husband, but he did not want to lose his most beloved son. If that was the case, she wouldn't be able to withstand such a blow.

"Huh!" Oscar exhaled deeply, as if he wanted to vent the frustration in his heart. He can't understand Empress Victoria's point of view at all. Just because you love Crown Prince Wilhelm, you cannot forgive his sins! You know, every sin is almost unforgivable.

"Mother Empress, Prince, he not only launched a rebellion, but also killed Father Emperor. With his behavior, how can anyone plead for him? Have you ever thought about it, After he killed Father Emperor, he also wanted to trick me into entering the palace. Once I was really fooled, what would happen to me? I'm afraid I would also be killed by him," Oscar said with a bitter smile.

"Oskar, no. Prince just wants to get the throne back. He won't really kill you. After all, this throne originally belonged to him. If he hadn't become a vegetable, you wouldn't be Crown Prince. What's more, At the beginning, Your Majesty promised that once he wakes up, you should return Crown Prince's position to Prince. Now, he should know that he was wrong and will no longer ask for the throne, so just let him go!" Empress Victoria said.

Oscar was very speechless. He had finally seen what it means to be a loving mother but lose her child. Why does Empress Victoria, who is also her son, dote on Crown Prince Wilhelm to such an extent?

Although, Empress Victoria is also his Mother Empress. However, Oscar knew that this time he had to be ruthless. Otherwise, there will be endless troubles. What's more, since Empress Victoria doesn't take his son seriously. Then, there is no need for him to pay attention to these so-called family ties. Anyway, the real Prince Oskar is already dead. He is now Oscar. It just borrowed the body of Prince Oskar. It would be very easy to give up these family ties.

"Mother Empress, I'm sorry, I can't agree to your request. The mistake my brother made this time is unforgivable. I believe that the court will give him a fair trial. Even if I am Imperial Crown Prince, I cannot interfere with the fairness of the law!" Oscar said coldly.

Empress Victoria, was stunned for a moment. His face became even more pale, with no color at all.

"Mother Empress, you should have a good rest. The rebellion is over, and I will take care of the aftermath." After Oscar finished speaking, he saluted Empress Victoria and then exited the room.

"Oskar, you can't do this." Empress Victoria exclaimed. Now, he no longer looks like Empress, just like a unruly village woman.

Oscar, on the other hand, didn't pay any attention to it.

After going downstairs, Oscar returned directly to the headquarters, his face not looking good.

"Crown Prince, what's wrong?" Chancellor Bülow and Foreign Minister Wacht were discussing Wilhelm II's funeral.

"Empress Your Majesty wants me to let go of Prince." Oscar said.

"What? How is this possible?" Chancellor Bülow exclaimed.

"He killed Your Majesty and launched a mutiny. He wanted to usurp power. He will never be forgiven!" Foreign Minister Wacht also said.

After all, the nature of this incident was really too bad. Nothing like this has ever happened since German Empire was established. If there is no severe punishment, how can we warn future generations?

"Your Highness, we will immediately organize Special Tribunal to try all those involved. Your Highness, do you have any requirements for this?" Chancellor Bülow asked.

Although, West countries advocate judicial justice. However, that is just to deceive ordinary people. For those who hold the power of the country, the judiciary is just a tool of their rule and serves them entirely.

Oscar thought for a while, and then said, "None of the masterminds who participated in this mutiny will be spared. I will hang them all. Those soldiers, depending on the severity of the case, will be sentenced to death or shot to death."

Oscar knows that this time he must be hard-hearted.

"Yes, Your Highness. However, will Your Highness and Duke of Württemberg also be sentenced to death? In that case, Kingdom of Württemberg may fall into chaos. Württemberg Royal Family still has a great influence on Kingdom of Württemberg." Chancellor Bülow was a little worried.

"No matter what, Duke of Württemberg can't stay. If possible, Württemberg Royal Family can definitely stay. I will order Other Units of the 9th Army Corps to transfer to the country. Marine Corps will also mobilize two more divisions. These The troops will march to Kingdom of Württemberg as quickly as possible. If the royal family dares to make any changes, I will uproot them. Kingdom of Württemberg will completely become a state of the Empire!" A hint of murder flashed in Oscar's eyes.

Although, both Chancellor Bülow and Foreign Minister Wacht feel that Oscar is a bit too tough. But they also know that this is undoubtedly a very good opportunity to strengthen centralization. Kingdom of Württemberg will become a breakthrough point for them to weaken local power and strengthen centralization. If we can open up the situation here, it will be much easier next time.

"Okay, Your Highness, let's do it according to your opinion! I will instruct the judge in charge of the trial to sentence them to hanging!" Chancellor Bülow said.

Oscar nodded and said nothing more. Although, among the masterminds, his two brothers were included. However, he had no psychological burden at all about sending them to the gallows.
