The Eleventh Prince, Lelouch. V. Bunitania quarreled with the emperor in front of the emperor for Mariana, and angrily returned the right to inherit the throne. Enraged, the emperor angrily handed him over to Japan as a hostage along with Nanali in order to ease the current tension in diplomatic relations.

Such rumors spread throughout the upper echelons of the Holy Bnetanian Empire in an hour.

"The dissemination of information at the top of the empire is really far more efficient than the military department and the intelligence bureau (secret intelligence bureau)!" After returning to Pisces Palace in the afternoon, Kamiyu, who received this information, made a sarcastic comment in front of Honezel.

The empire is currently in a period of expansion, and the transmission of information from the front and intelligence departments is the highest priority, for which the empire does not hesitate to spend a lot of money. However, in the face of the speed with which these nobles delivered court messages, the budgets spent by these two departments really made people feel that the money was wasted.

In fact, by the time Kamiyu learned about it, he was already one of the last few people.

"Don't you think it's weird? Father's reaction: "Schunezel didn't take up the topic of Kamiyu, he was used to it, and even he himself had become one of the protagonists of those messages several times.

"It's weird." After being bored for a while, Kamiyu also calmed down and thought about the emperor's actions.

Mariana's dead emperor did not make any moves, but waited quietly for something. But judging by the various attitudes, there is no doubt that Mariana has a considerable weight in the emperor's heart, and there is no reason why Lelouch should make such a heartless decision because of such an impulsive move.

"The most strange thing is that Nanali is even involved in what is going on."

The dispute only existed between Lelouch and the Emperor, and Lelouch angrily returned the throne to the throne and inherited the throne was always his own decision, but the Emperor's decision included Nanali, which was somewhat unreasonable.

"The law of the jungle, survival of the fittest. This is the purpose of the empire, and Nanali can be said to have lost the ability to live as an ordinary person, but because of the identity of the royal family, it is best to become a diplomatic prop. "Shunezel is obviously knowledgeable, and many nobles have spoken so in front of the emperor.

"This is still unreasonable, people are selfish, His Majesty the Emperor could not be so ruthless, and the two of them were abandoned like abandoned sons not long after Princess Marianna's death."

Kamiyu suddenly thought of a possibility. "Will it be a protective measure?"

"Hmm," Schunezel lowered his head in thought.

"It is also possible that Princess Mariana was assassinated in the court of Bunitania, and it is difficult to guarantee that she will not attack Lelouch and Nanali, coupled with the collapse of the Ashuford family, which originally supported Mariana behind the scenes, the next days of the two siblings who lost their care are very dangerous. But there are two major problems."

"For what emperor can calculate that Lelouch will definitely go to him? And why will it be sent to Japan? Kamiyu took over Schunezel's words and made the crux of the matter.

"Lelouch's question is easy to explain, his mother, who is also the princess of Bunitania, was assassinated, but as an emperor, he ignored it, and as a child, he would definitely question it. Forbearance still broke out, and Lelouch chose the latter, although there was a provocation and anger under the emperor's majesty at work, but it was intriguing to say the sentence of returning the right to inherit the throne. ”

"yes!" Xiu Naizel agreed and said, "If someone instructed it, it would be reasonable, but if this is Lelouch himself, then I really underestimated this imperial brother!" ”

Now that he has lost his support, for Lelouch, who is young and does not have a high succession ranking, it has become impossible whether he has the will to take the throne or not, and continuing to have the right to inherit the throne will bring him endless danger. In this case, it is better to abandon the inheritance, whether it is for Nanali or herself, it is the most correct decision.

"Lelouch has always been smart, but he has always been under the protection of Princess Mariana and Princess Cornelia and others, so he didn't show it. Now that his umbrella is no longer there, it seems that he has made a choice between growing up strong or sinking. ”

Camillo, who has a deep impression of Lelouch, has a very high opinion of him.

[However, Lelouch is too far behind you. Shonezel is very proud of his own brother.

"Lelouch aside, it's hard to understand what his father did."

Yes, one way or another, Lelouch's presence has become irrelevant, and the crux of the matter is the very puzzling actions of the emperor.

"We have discussed before that with regard to the Empire's strategic policy towards Japan, war with Japan is imminent, and it will break out in one year at the latest. And the father sent the two to Japan, although it can play a role in temporarily pacifying the Japanese government, but this not only cannot protect the two but also kills them. ”

"Or will the Empire abandon its current strategy for the sake of the two of them?" Kamiyu's words were just a joke, and no one with a brain would believe that the emperor would change the empire's policy for the sake of two of his many children.

"No, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has already sent a note to the Chinese Federation expressing its intention to negotiate. In other words, the strategy towards Japan has become imperative, and after the two are sent to Japan, waiting for the Japanese government to settle down is the opportunity for everything to begin" Schunezel, as the Minister of the Interior, already knew this inside information.

“”

At this time, Kamiyu was also silent, the emperor's idea was really unexpected this time.

"Could it be that there is any backhand under Your Majesty? Can you guarantee that the two of them can survive well? "The only thing I can think of is this possibility.

"This is something that only the father and the gods know."

[I can't know the way! If you really know what everyone thinks at all times, even gods will go crazy! In his heart, Camillo vomited with contempt for Schunezel's words.

"What time are they leaving?" Camillo, feeling speechless, asked.

"Why are you going to send them next week?" Shonezel was a little surprised, his younger brother and Lelouch were not close, and even being good could only be said to be reluctant.

"Hmm." Kamiyu only nodded imperceptibly, ending the conversation.

A week later, the imperial capital was in the royal airport.

The only people who came to see off the declining prince and princess were a few of their usual playmates.

Lelouch pushed Nanali, who was in a wheelchair with her eyes closed, her expression very stiff, or with a hint of anger. However, in front of Yuphimia, whose eyes were teary and constantly saying goodbye to him, he still forced a smile. A few older ones, such as Cornelia and Clovis, stood by and watched the scene quietly.

However, Camillo always felt that every time Lelouch looked at his side, a trace of deep hatred flashed in his eyes.

Suspiciously, he looked at Cornelia beside him, and happened to collide with the other party's eyes looking at him, as if Cornelia should have also discovered Lelouch's abnormality.

"It is said that I don't know who spread the rumor that Princess Mariana's death was a revenge planned by the Shonezel and the Lipsita family, and that it was for the death of Princess Angelott," said Conelia, who understood that Kamiyu might not know about the matter.

"It should have been Lu Luxiu who mistook this rumor as someone telling the truth about him, so now he hates both of you brothers."

"I see." Camillo's reaction was very flat, and this performance surprised Cornelia slightly.

"Why don't you explain?" Cornelia asked, a little worried.

She didn't believe in such rumors, not only her, but also people with brains in the upper echelons of the nobility wouldn't believe it. Because of this incident, judging from the emperor's reaction, it has exceeded the ability of the Lipsiu Tower's family, and engaging in wind and rain before the emperor vents his unhappiness is tantamount to suicide.

Lelouch believed it, but it was only because the news was too closed, and he was blinded by the revenge of killing his mother, which caused him to listen to and believe partially.

Kamiyu turned his head to look at the two siblings and shook his head lightly with a light smile, "No, this is a good thing for him." ”

"Huh?"

Sensing Cornelia's surprised look, Kamiyu turned around and smiled.

"Hatred is a very strong emotion, and although it is full of negative emotions, it can be a source of strength. Let's hope this false hatred will support him to survive in that sinister place in Japan! ”

"But isn't that unfair to you? In case of a future," Cornelia looked at Camillo in shock.

"Nothing."

[It seems that she still doesn't know the strategic intentions of the Dao Empire. Kamiyu glanced back at Cornelia and said in her heart.

Once the Empire launches a war against Japan, the hostages of Lelouch and Nanali will be in a very dangerous situation, not only will they face the pursuit of the Japanese government, but the Japanese people will also kill them quickly, not to mention that they will die under the stray bullets of war at any time.

"This kind of rumor full of loopholes, if he can survive, I believe he will definitely figure it out in the future. Think of it as my gift to him. ”

"I've really wronged you." Cornelia still didn't understand why Camillo thought that Lelouch would be very dangerous when he arrived in Japan, a question that was not understood until a year later when the war between the Empire and Japan broke out.

Now she is touched by his behavior. Reaching out and putting it on Kamiyu's head, he began to rub it gently.

Unfortunately, she didn't notice that when Kamiyu turned her head several times, she threw a few cold glances at Monica. The latter understood, and quietly disappeared into the ranks of the knights.

The rumors of the members of the royal family are not so easy to create, especially the highnesses who are in the first line of succession, and they have a huge family behind them. The next day, one or more noble families may be removed, but no one cares, because new nobles will soon be replaced. What the empire will never lack is nobility

"Don't do that, I'm not a kid anymore." Dissatisfied with Kamiyu, she tried to slap Cornelia's hand away.

However, the latter moved a step faster, pinching Kamiyu's extremely elastic soft face with both hands, and then began to pull back and forth with a little force.

"Dare to rebel against the imperial sister me, it's 100 years early!" Cornelia had a big smile on her face, and she was now more and more fond of the feeling of pinching Kamiyu's face, so much so that she always tried to find reasons to bully Kamiyu.

It seems that the main tone of this sad farewell party has unconsciously changed.
