854, Bloody Night
Imperial Capital Security Office.
This is a powerful department in the imperial capital second only to the imperial military department, and the building is prominent.
On weekdays, the soldiers of the security station, who only wore light armor uniforms, changed into all the same medium armor at this time, with bright armor and unsheathed swords and guns, and almost sixty-seven percent of the forces responsible for maintaining law and order in the imperial capital were concentrated here, and the soldiers all looked solemn and the atmosphere was extremely tense.
In the hall deep in the pavilion of the security station, finally no longer wearing a long skirt, but a white leather armor demon witch Paris, long golden hair poured on her shoulders like a waterfall, a blood-colored rose still stained with dew was inserted in the temples, bewitching and incomprehensible, and the weak and boneless slender hand held a two-handed sword, which gave people a very visual impact, and the face of the peerless style was cold and solemn.
The [Redbeard] Granero, whose face was silent and his eyes were cold, had a strange expression, and there was a rare eagerness to try, standing behind Paris, also fully armed, with a silver strange helmet on his head, lifting his face armor, the usual cold color was gone, and his body was filled with a rare martial aura.
These two important ministers, who were regarded as the right-hand men of the second prince Domingos, appeared in the imperial capital security office, and their expressions were so solemn, indicating that something big was about to happen.
Beside the two of them, there stood a figure whose whole body was shrouded in a black cloak, silent, full of mystery.
Suddenly, a sinister soldier hurriedly came in and reported loudly that the forces of the police were ready.
"It's time, according to the previous plan, let's go. Paris took the lead out of the hall with her two-handed sword in her hand.
"Can you trust the people of the Iron Battalion?" Granero reminded.
"This time, it can be trusted. The witch didn't look back, and went out of the hall.
Hearing this, Granero took a deep breath, glanced at the black-clothed cloaked man beside him, and stopped talking, his eyes showed a desperate light, and he buckled his silver armor, like a silver-armored martial god, and drove the armor on his body to click and make a metal friction sound, and walked out.
And the mysterious man in the black cloak, like a shadow, silently followed behind.
In less than ten minutes, nearly 10,000 fully armed elite soldiers of the Imperial Capital Security Station set out from the building, divided into four or five groups, like a black tide, and rushed towards the city of St. Petersburg in all directions.
......
In the 1342nd year of the Terran Era on the mainland, the eighty-fifth year of the imperial calendar, on the night of the ninth day of the sixth month, the imperial capital St. Petersburg, began to bleed.
Bloody Night.
Later generations of historians, troubadours and scholars of all shapes and sizes have different evaluations of this [bloody night], but there is one thing that they agree on - this night is the beginning of the beginning of a long period of powerful military dictatorship in the Zenit Empire, and it is this high-intensity military dictatorship system that makes this small empire in the northern region of the mainland finally have the last laugh in the chaotic war on the mainland.
And the history books of the imperial royal historian record and evaluate this night like this-
"This is a night full of incredulity and killing, the two princes who fought for the throne of the empire in the past, Arshavin and Domingos joined forces for the only time in their lives, and raised their butcher knives against the decaying nobles who had been meritorious and glorious in the empireใ There is no doubt that this was the largest massacre of nobles since the founding of the Empire, and it was also a cruel and ruthless purge, and if the Empire needed to survive in troubled times, it must cut off those rotten and festering tumors, and the two far-sighted princes agreed on this, which was the most basic basis for their cooperation. โ
There are also some historians and scholars who have thought more deeply -
"Since the rise of Chambord King Alexander, the empire has had signs of slaughtering nobles, and the occurrence of [Bloody Night] has not been without the figure of Chambord King Alexander, if after a hundred years of development, the ancient body of the empire has begun to become decayed and old, and urgently needs a drastic purge, then the so-called 'Chambord King betrayed the human race' incident, the catalyst for this purge, of course, the silence of Yashin the Great is also a tacit approval of this massacre to a certain extent. For a period of time, it was always difficult for people to understand the attitude of this genius emperor and warrior towards the entire empire and several princes, and even more difficult to understand why he was so indulgent and doting on the restless factor of King Chambord, until the chaos of the entire continental empire came to an end, and all the mysteries were slowly solved. โ
......
The Imperial Senate is a power group that cannot be ignored behind the strength of many aristocratic groups.
At the beginning of the empire, this institution, which was originally set up to win over the imperial aristocracy and appease the local power groups, was only a pitiful foil in the imperial political arena when the Yashin Emperor was in his prime, and many old and deaf nobles spent the last days of their lives here.
However, as the Yashin Emperor flourished and gradually let go of political affairs due to illness, the Imperial Senate gradually played an unimaginable role, and the nobles began to divide the power of the royal family and the military, and even in the decisions of many major events of the Empire, this institution began to play a role that could not be ignored, becoming a second power group after the imperial family.
In the final decision on the Chambord King Alexander incident, the Imperial Senate has been fueling the troubles, and the nobles who are unwilling to harm their own interests need to maintain the current stable state, they do not want the complete outbreak of war, and they do not want to have contradictions and confrontations with powerful figures like Dali Sandro, so the nobles do not hesitate to betray the interests of the empire.
Yesterday, the Senate invited the envoys from the Twenty-Second Empire into the Great Hall.
Repeated provocations against the majesty of the royal family finally brought about the murder of these proud and greedy nobles.
When the news of the ruthless killings in the Imperial Military Headquarters and many noble mansions reached the Senate, the residences of the main members of the Senate and the main hall of the Senate were already surrounded by the bloodied [Iron Blood Battalion] and the soldiers of the Imperial Capital Security Office.
The sound of shouting and killing shook the sky, and the panicked nobles in Chinese costumes turned into ghosts under the knife one by one.

The first one, there are more.
