Kingdom of Daxia Capital
In the main hall
In the center of the hall stands a splendid and glorious throne.
On both sides below the throne are ministers and generals with titles.
At the front of the hall are several elderly elders, whose demeanor and status are not comparable to those of ordinary people.
These are all bigwigs in this country who have been awarded the title of Duke and Marquis, and they are also staunch members of the King faction.
Sitting on the throne was a white-haired elderly man who was full of the aura of a king, but also had a twilight complexion.
This person is King: Cassius·Mill of Kingdom of Daxia
"Your Majesty, please make a decision as soon as possible. After all, there is no need to delay now."
I saw a slightly older man among the elderly people standing at the front, speaking with a very solemn expression to Cassius Mir, who was already gray-haired but full of kingly aura on the throne.
After finishing speaking, the several nobles at the front who were obviously in high positions nodded one after another.
"Yes! The current situation is no longer a choice for you. Please make a decision as soon as possible."
The person who spoke was an obviously older woman standing next to King, but her youthful beauty could still be seen between her brows.
This person is none other than Queen of Kingdom of Daxia.
At this time, the ministers who listened to the words of the great nobles and Queen were a little confused.
"No, what are you talking about!"
"You know what?"
"You don't even know, do you think I will know?"
"I don't know either!"
"Is it possible that we are not on the same channel as them?"
"This is the main hall, that's right! Why can't I understand a word?"
"That's right, that's right!"
"+1"
"..."
"..."
"+!"
But standing at the head of the civil servants, an old man who looked to be in his fifties, silently did not speak, and just glanced at the many civil servants who were talking about it.
A bunch of fools, why don't you think about why we don't know? It's obvious that King and those big nobles don't want us to know about this!
He has no political consciousness at all, no wonder he can only be a civil servant for the rest of his life.
"Oh, indeed, I really never thought that the second guy would collude with Kingdom of Falmes! I thought... sigh!"
At this time, Cassius Mir, who was sitting on the throne, sighed. He thought it was an ordinary rebellion, but it is no longer like this.
"What do you mean!"
"Why do I understand less and less!"
"Could it be the reason Second Prince?"
"Could it be Second Prince's plot..."
"Shut your mouth! Is it allowed to say such nonsense?"
Looking at the civil officials and military generals who were talking about each other, Cassius Mir, who was sitting on the throne, waved to the nobles.
"Tell them what happened! There's no point in hiding it now."
"I originally wanted to solve it secretly, but it's impossible now."
"If I had known this would happen, I should have solved it earlier."
At the end of the sentence, the face of the twilight king was full of regret.
With King's signal, one of the marquises made a quiet gesture toward the civil servants and generals below.
Later, under the Marquis's explanation, everyone understood the whole matter from beginning to end.
After the officials heard this, they immediately exploded.
"What? Second Prince really wants to rebel."
"Have you read the script?"
"Just go ahead! Is this important?"
"Collusion with Kingdom of Falmes, treason... no, Second Prince is... sigh"
"It seems that His Highness Second Prince is well prepared this time!"
"Oh, what a troubled time!"
Looking at the courtiers talking about each other, King didn't say much for a while?
"Your Majesty, may I ask a question?"
At this time, a middle-aged man who looked very sensible came forward and asked Cassius Mill.
"Ask! I will tell you everything."
Cassius Mir sighed and did not refuse the visitor's question.
"I would like to ask, how many soldiers does Second Prince have?"
The middle-aged man thought for a moment and finally asked this key question. Indeed, the number of soldiers in Second Prince's hands depends on their chances of winning.
Part of it also depends on where they stand.
Upon hearing this person's question, many of the ministers who had been talking about each other just now immediately fell silent.
There is no other way, they are also curious about this issue.
After all, as long as you are a human being, you don't want to die.
Cassius Mir took a deep look at the minister who asked this question. It was obvious that he had seen through the thoughts of these people, but this is the reality.
"Kingdom of Falmes aided this scoundrel with an army of 40,000, and the border nobles and he controlled an army of almost 50,000."
Cassius·Mill was unhappy in his heart, but he still said it honestly. After all, the taboo on the battlefield is inconsistent intelligence.
When the ministers heard about the 40,000-strong army, their expressions changed, but when they heard that Second Prince and the border nobles had gathered an army of 50,000-strong, they became even more panicked.
"A total of 90,000 troops! It's over, it's over!"
"How can we fight this! You must know that there are only 30,000 troops in the royal capital now, which is twice the number. It's over!"
"That's it, what should I do!"
"What on earth did Second Prince do to make Kingdom of Falmes assist his 40,000-strong army!"
"Is this important now? The important thing is that we are finished."
"How about packing up your things and running away!"
"Shut up, Your Majesty is still here?"
"Yes, yes!"
Looking at the noisy crowd, some people who clearly saw something just stood silently and said nothing.
At this time, Cassius, who was sitting on the throne, just looked at this scene coldly, as if he wanted to remember the faces of these people so that he could settle accounts later.
"Okay, I will give you a chance. You can leave here now. I will not stop you, but you must know that once you step out of the hall today, it means that you will no longer have contact with Kingdom of Daxia."
Cassius Mir said coldly that in his opinion, this rebellion was just an opportunity to clean up the government and the opposition. As for his second son, he had many ways to deal with him.
After listening to what Cassius Mir said, some ministers looked at me and I looked at you, and then knelt down directly in front of Cassius.
"Sorry, Wang, I still have family after all."
"King, I'm sorry."
"Sorry..."
After speaking, many ministers left the palace.
