There's a reason for Theresa I's anger.

In this rebellion coalition, more than 90% of the troops from the Spany Empire were dispatched, and the Church of Light room only dispatched a priest and a knight order with less than 10,000 troops, and the commander of the rebel alliance was also Marshal Lean from the Spanne Empire.

In any way, the Spany Empire is undoubtedly the most central part of the Rebellion Alliance, and the Church of Light forces are only here to support at best.

But in such a situation, the commander of the Sbanney Empire's War Secretary, Duke Lean, quietly made such a surprise attack plan with Pope Leo of the Church, and he didn't even report it to Theresa I!

This made Theresa I visibly very unhappy, and in fact no Emperor of the Spany Empire would be happy about such a situation.

Even if Teresa I had already told Duke Lean that she would not express any opinion on the combat operations of the army before leaving, and asked Duke Lean to let it go, Duke Lean's way of reporting to the Pope but not to the Empress obviously made the Empress unhappy.

There is no doubt that this is an absolute contempt for Her Majesty's authority!

As the brain in charge of the Blood Shadow Guard, Duke Habs has long understood the reason for the Empress's anger, and at this moment, Chancellor Paul has also come to his senses.

After understanding the cause of Her Majesty's anger, Prime Minister Paul suddenly felt that this was a good opportunity.

Chancellor Paul was certainly not stupid, in fact, as an old politician, the Prime Minister was far more familiar with all the sordid and shady politics than anyone thought, so he had long understood the Empress's intention to let Duke Habs replace him.

If it were before the events of Celebration Day, Prime Minister Paul would have chosen to give in to save himself and the entire Ice Bear family, because they had made the wrong bet in this battle for the throne.

But with the Celebration Day incident, Prime Minister Paul's mind was different. There is no doubt that after Cleverley's assassination of the former Emperor Charles XVI, the position of the Golden Lion Family and the Duke of Leanne has been shaken, and the unreserved trust that successive emperors have had in the Golden Lion Family for three hundred years will never be possible.

In that case, why not take the initiative to get rid of Duke Lean and let Duke Habs replace Duke Lean's position as Minister of War? Prime Minister Paul felt that Her Majesty would not mind the Duke of Habs becoming the new Minister of War.

As long as Duke Habs takes over as Minister of War, it will be difficult for anyone to challenge Paul's position as Prime Minister for at least a year or two, and Prime Minister Paul can take this opportunity to win more benefits and bargaining chips for himself and the Ice Bear family, and make better guarantees for the future of the family.

Thinking of this, Prime Minister Paul decided to stab Duke Leanne in the back, and this knife was certainly not the kind of knife that pierced Duke Leanne's body directly, but a blade of lies forged by framing and slandering.

Prime Minister Paul spoke unhurriedly: "Your Majesty, you remember that you just told us not long ago that His Excellency Duke Lian seems to have close contacts with the Church of Light and even reached some kind of agreement. ”

Prime Minister Paul did not name anyone who was suspicious, but the other two people present knew exactly who he was talking about. Her Majesty's brow furrowed almost immediately, and the anger on her face began to increase.

Seeing this, Prime Minister Paul immediately struck while the iron was hot: "I don't know if Your Majesty has noticed, the one who led the army to attack Paris City all the way was actually a general from the Church of Light!" What does His Excellency Duke Lean mean by this, does he think that among the nearly fifty generals in our imperial army of more than 100,000 people, there is not even a single person capable of carrying out such a task? ”

As soon as these words came out, the anger on Teresa I's face became even more obvious, Her Majesty's slender fingers kept tapping on the armrest of the throne, and only those closest to her knew what her action represented, which meant that Her Majesty's anger was on the verge of exploding.

Prime Minister Paul carefully observed all this, and felt that it was time to throw out the final killer weapon: "The minister also wants to remind Your Majesty that the original plan was that the Duke of Lion would use our army still stationed in the Kingdom of France to find a way to win over a group of high-ranking members of the Kingdom of France and overthrow the future Queen of France, but now with the secret communication between the Duke of Lion and the church, this plan seems to be difficult to achieve, once the fiancée of Pope Leo, Princess Bela, completely controls the Kingdom of France, Then the time comes—"

"Enough!" Teresa I interrupted Prime Minister Paul's words and said to the Duke of Habs in distraught: "Lord Habs, what do you think on this matter?" ”

The most important thing for a qualified emperor is to be able to listen and understand, so although Teresa I still regards Prime Minister Paul as an important figure in the empire at the moment, he will not be biased in his opinion.

Duke Habs thought for a moment and said, "The Prime Minister's words do make sense, if His Excellency Duke Lean completely falls to the side of the church, then even if we finally win the war on the side of France, the result will only be to make a wedding dress for others, and enhance the strength of Pope Leo and the church out of thin air, but——"

Duke Habs lengthened his tone, and then said: "In the opinion of the ministers, it is impossible for the Duke of Lean to completely fall to the side of the church, because the creed of the Golden Lion Family for three hundred years is to protect the empire and protect the royal family, and this creed has long been engraved into the bone marrow of the Golden Lion Family. Therefore, even if Duke Lean wanted to betray, most of the Golden Lion family would never agree with him. ”

Teresa I nodded, the expression on her face looked a little softer, in fact, Her Majesty the Empress still has the deepest worry in her heart that has not been said, that is, at this moment, most of the elites of the local side of the Spanne Empire have been transferred to the command of Duke Lean, once Duke Lean suddenly rebelled back to Spani with this army of more than 100,000 people, Theresa I had no way to stop it.

When Chancellor Paul heard this, he frowned, and said in his heart that the Duke of Habs, as the person most relied on by Her Majesty, actually spoke out to exonerate Duke Leanne, does this imply that Her Majesty actually believes in Duke Lean? In this way, the eye medicine I took in front of Her Majesty today was not in vain?

However, Duke Habs's words were not over: "But Your Majesty has to guard against the signs in front of you, so I suggest that an important Imperial Minister be sent as a supervisor to join the rebel coalition army, first, to monitor the Duke of Lien nearby, and secondly, to better grasp the movements of the rebel coalition and the implementation of the Empire's plan for the Kingdom of France." ”

When Prime Minister Paul heard this, he felt that this idea was not bad, with this overseer as a constraint, the Duke of Leanne's command and transfer of the army would not be so easy, and the collusion with the Church of Light would not be so smooth, so the Prime Minister immediately spoke: "I agree with Duke Habs's opinion, but the candidate for this overseer needs to be carefully considered." ”

As soon as Prime Minister Paul finished speaking, the eyes of Theresa I and Duke Habs suddenly fell on him.

Prime Minister Paul was stunned for a moment and then suddenly realized that this was Duke Habs's attempt to take the opportunity to transfer himself out of Ridmar City and fight the rebel coalition to fight Duke Leanne's dog-eat-dog!

It's over, now I really picked up a brick and hit my own foot!
