According to the records, Charles XVI at that time was a very typical young prince in every way, not only fond of hunting, but also keen to pursue other noble girls. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

At the age of twenty, Charles XVI, then a prince, set out from Ridmar City in late autumn with a hundred palace guards and a few young aristocratic men of similar age, heading northwest to Lionheart, the capital of the Golden Lion Family.

According to the original plan, the group was supposed to cross the mountains northwest of the empire into Lionheart before the first snow of winter arrived, and return to Ridmar the following spring when the snow melted. However, the plan could not catch up with the change, and the winter of that year came very early, so when Charles XVI and his party were at least 100 kilometers away from Lionheart, they were already stopped by the heavy snow that arrived in advance.

Because horses and vehicles were completely impassable in the mountains in winter, Charles XVI and his party, with hundreds of horses and ten carriages, were forced to spend the winter in a small castle built by a baron.

The name of this small castle is White Peony Castle.

And then the puzzling happened. Three months later, when spring descended on the land, young Charles XVI returned to Ridmar alone, claiming that the hundreds of centaurs and the entire castle of White Peony had been completely destroyed by the demons summoned by the heretics due to the attack of the dark cult.

This incident immediately caused a sensation in the upper echelons of the entire empire, and even led to a very brutal purge. Judging from the court's subsequent investigation, several very serious doubts were found.

First of all, the hundred guards who followed Charles XVI were all the elite of the elite, and there were even several masters of the Blood Shadow Guard, and their purpose seemed to be not just to protect the safety of Charles XVI, who was still the prince at the time, but also had other missions that were very important to the top of the entire empire. Moreover, judging from the information that the Church of Light has, it would take at least two or more Sacred Domain powerhouses to attack at the same time to be able to defeat and slaughter such an elite force.

Secondly, the identities of several noble children who followed Charles XVI were also very sensitive, these people were all the core children of the major super families in the Spany Empire at that time, and they all played a very important role in their respective families, almost every one of them had a high probability of becoming the future head of the family, and one of them was even the brother of Duke Paul, the current Prime Minister of the Spany Empire.

The loss of such an important core child for no reason is of course unacceptable to these big families, so these extremely influential families in the empire united to put pressure on the royal family, demanding that the royal family must give an explanation.

Charles XVI's father, the reigning emperor at the time, Charles XV, who had been bedridden for a long time, was furious because of this incident, and the angry emperor not only directly put Charles XVI under house arrest, but also personally selected a large number of cronies and experts to launch a comprehensive investigation into the incident.

Because Charles XVI claimed to have been attacked by the dark sect, the Church of Light at that time also sent elite soldiers to join the investigation team, and came to the place where the White Peony Castle was located to investigate.

Not only that, but the joint mission also found a very surprising news. In the White Peony Castle, which has been completely reduced to ruins, the breath of holy power can be detected everywhere, as if an elite army from the Holy See raided the castle and slaughtered everyone in the castle except for Charles XVI!

It would be fine if this matter was really done by the Church of Light, but all the high-level members of the church knew very well in their hearts that in view of the very strong defensive force in the White Peony Castle at that time, if they wanted to completely eliminate these people, the church would also have to use a lot of elite forces. And the mobilization of such a powerful elite force is not to mention concealing the upper echelons of the church, I am afraid that even the spies of the royal family ambushed in the church cannot be concealed at all!

In other words, the church has neither a position nor the time to do so. But all of this shows the fact that the church did it! Charles XVI just lied that he was being attacked by members of the Dark Sect because he didn't want to have a direct confrontation with the church.

The news immediately shook the entire Sbanny Empire, and even Charles XVI was thrown into prison and tortured countless times just to find out what was going on. However, no matter how severe the torture was, Charles XVI still insisted on his previous statement, and showed no sign of relenting at all.

Under such circumstances, although Charles XVI still had many supporters, under the joint pressure of several super families and other royal mothers, his father, Charles XV, made an unprecedented decision - to sentence the then eldest prince Charles XVI to death and choose a date to be executed!

Seeing this, Leo finally couldn't help but look up and ask Daisy in front of him, "We really did this tragedy?" ”

We are not referring to Leo and Daisy, of course, but to the entire Church of Light.

Daisy smiled very charmingly and shook her head gently: "I don't know." ”

This answer made Leo, who was full of anticipation, almost not come back in one breath, and his whole face was suffocated. After finally relieving himself, Leo couldn't help but roll his eyes at Daisy, who was snickering in front of him, and then continued to look.

Just when the matter seemed to have settled completely, another astonishing upheaval took place - it seemed that there were only three days before the day of execution, but at this juncture, Charles XV, who had been sick in bed for a long time, could no longer support it and died in the middle of the night!

The death of Charles XV threw the entire imperial hierarchy into chaos, and less than half an hour after Charles XV's death, a mysterious force that has not yet been identified raided the heavily guarded Ridmar City prison and rescued Charles XVI after a bloody battle.

The rescued Charles XVI immediately gathered all the forces that were still on his side and launched a deadly counterattack against the political enemies who were still in chaos. After seven days of fighting and fighting, most of the political enemies and princes were slaughtered, and Charles XVI stepped on the throne of the emperor with the corpses of countless political enemies and brothers.

From the current point of view, such a result may be the worst outcome for the Church of Light. Because instead of protecting the Church of Light as his political enemies imagined, Charles XVI, who sat on the throne of the Emperor, chose another outcome that surprised everyone at the time - a break with the Church!
