The death of a royal heir could not have caused such a shock to a prince who had endured decades of political experience.

However, the royal heir died in the Orion Empire, and before his death had such a complicated connection with his daughter and son.

On top of that, the two countries have only just formed a strategic alliance, and Orion is still on the side of the seeker.

The Empire of Orion is a vast territory, and unlike the Esapse Divine Kingdom, Orion is not a lordship of the old times. In many important government affairs, the various city lords of Orion do not have the right to decide, and these government affairs will fall on the shoulders of the lord of a country.

The Emperor simply could not handle all the affairs of the government alone. Even if he has a large number of ministers under his command. Therefore, in addition to the prime minister, the royal family will handle some government affairs with other members of the royal family.

His Majesty the Emperor was primarily responsible for foreign and military affairs, while internal affairs were shared between him and his younger brother, Prince Xia Zuo.

If it was in peacetime, with the character of these two brothers, it was natural that there was a division of labor, and the monarch and the ministers were harmonious, but the empire was in the midst of this distant war.

The two brothers, Xia Zuo and England, did not have any political conflict. Although Xia Zuo did not agree with his brother's actions in military and political affairs, he also knew that he should not be involved.

Xia Zuo even had little contact with the generals of the military department and the commanders of the garrisons sent by various countries.

One is to avoid suspicion, and the other is to show trust in my brother. If the matter of brotherly discord spreads, it will not only be ridiculed by other countries. If it is serious, it will even affect the stability of the alliances of various countries and the momentum of the coalition forces.

The two brothers have been handling this matter very well, but in the past few years, everything has changed.

Five years ago, the fledgling Essapos Divine Kingdom was invited to join the Alliance. More than a decade ago, this country was divided into cities and full of bloody wars, and now although it is unified, it still smells of brutality and barbarism.

Most importantly, this country is not an ordinary small kingdom, but a powerful empire that is very small in terms of national power and force.

Barbarism and brutality mean that it is difficult to get along with other people, especially since the countries of the Eastern Continent have experienced 10,000 years of dark history, and the people have already become more peaceful and enjoy stability.

With the official opening of the trade alliance between the two countries and the reduction of tariffs, a large number of desert merchants poured into the Orion Empire.

However, the warlike and lawless desert people soon turned the whole of Orion into a miasma. Accusations followed, and the number of crimes climbed as quickly as the anger of the desert people.

The addition of a new powerful alliance from the enemy country has also made the Shadow Empire feel a serious crisis, and at the same time, it has also increased the export of war on the border battlefield.

As the war became more and more tense, His Majesty Aldrich gradually put aside all internal affairs and concentrated all his energy on the military.

At the same time, he handed over all the internal affairs to his younger brother, Prince Xia Zuo, and the new prime minister, Clive, who had just taken office. At the same time, Prince Xia Zuo was thrown to the injustice and grievances brought about by the extremely unfair "Huai'en Order".

Prince Xia Zuo has repeatedly played the abolition of this flattering "Wai En Order", and at the same time hopes that His Majesty's grace will expel all unlawless merchants.

However, before the desert people could strike and the merchants made trouble, Orion's military department and many ministers were the first to oppose it.

For the sake of the stability of the front-line coalition forces, His Majesty the Emperor refuted Prince Xia Zuo's recitals again and again, and even quarreled with the prince several times in several court meetings.

Many powerful people who were at odds with Prince Xia Zuo or those who benefited from it even faintly used the topic of the prince's interference in military affairs to secretly remind the emperor. This made Prince Xia Zuo have no choice but to return, and at the same time, the two brothers also had a lot of gaps.

Prince Lunn was also a loyal supporter of his father, Prince Chazzo, and even expressed his position on many occasions. This caused his eldest uncle, the emperor, to be secretly dissatisfied with Prince Lunen, and until now he has not given Prince Lunen any real power, and even rejected his request for decentralization.

Prince Xia Zuo learned of the summons of His Majesty the Emperor, and he knew that this matter might not be good.

Xia Zuo originally didn't plan to keep this matter a secret from his emperor brother, but Xia Zuo hoped that after his daughter was successfully rescued, he would tell the other party about it.

Xia Zuo knew that although this brother had become more and more estranged from him in recent years, he had always loved his only niece very much, almost to the extent that he could respond to his needs.

Prince Xia Zuo knew that on the one hand, their clan had only two brothers in this generation, and the emperor and empress had never had a daughter, so they loved Xia Duoer as his daughter.

On the other hand, Xia Zuo believes that this is a kind of compensation from his brother for his dedication to the country over the years.

Because of this, Xia Zuo never talked to his daughter about government affairs, and at the same time forbade his son Lunn and his sister to talk about these things.

If His Majesty the Emperor knew that his niece was in danger, he would probably immediately use the high-end force of the empire. This will not only make this matter known to everyone, but also cause the imperial city to be empty in defense and damage to the reputation of the empire, and it will also cause various frames against him by political opponents, and I am afraid that it will be out of control.

Thinking about it, Prince Xia Zuo had already stepped into the hall with one foot. He took a deep breath, let go of the confusion in his mind, and looked at his brother on the throne.

"My brother has seen Your Majesty. "Prince Xia Zuo bowed according to the ancestral system.

"Xia Zuo, do you know what news I got today?" England quickly sat up straight when he saw his brother walking towards him, and motioned for Xia Zuo to sit on a chair that had already been set up not far from the throne.

Prince Xia Zuo walked under the throne, but did not sit down. He looked at his brother who looked melancholy but pretended to be calm, and he was a little speechless for a while, and he didn't know how to speak.

"Xia Zuo, what's wrong?" England seemed to see that his brother was a little speechless, and this hesitation had never been seen on the face of his all-powerful brother.

"Your Majesty, are you talking about the killing of a royal heir in Tamuya City?" Prince Xia Zuo finally spoke.

"You know, too? Sanya, the big-mouthed guy, I told him not to publicize it. England was a little surprised, but didn't think anything was wrong.

"Your Majesty, my brother didn't know about it from Viscount Sanya. Prince Xia Zuo shook his head and said.

"Huh?"

"What should be said is what needs to be said after all......" Xia Zuo sighed in his letter.

In the face of England's puzzled expression, Prince Chazzo seemed to have finally mustered up the courage to recount what Lunn had told his brother in the letter.

Sure enough, Xia Zuo had just said a few words, and England jumped up from the throne with a shocked face.

As an emperor, his self-control did not interrupt Xia Zuo's narration immediately, but as Xia Zuo narrated, England's face gradually changed from shock to anger, and gradually became gloomy. This made Xia Zuo's heart go up and down for a while.

Xia Zuo was not afraid of His Majesty the Emperor's anger, and in the past few years, he had quarreled with his only brother and turned his face.

But this time is different, it is not only about the stability of the coalition and the rise and fall of the empire, but also about his son Lunn.

He knew that his brother didn't like Lunn, and that Lunn was prejudiced against the desert people because of his influence. It was also the first time that he was frustrated several times at the court meeting, which also made Lunn become more radical, and even faintly showed his dissatisfaction with him, the emperor's uncle.

Xia Zuo had nothing to say about the estrangement and boredom shown by the emperor. I only blamed myself for seeing my son too maturely, forgetting that he was a hot-blooded young man in his early twenties.

Xia Zuo can only let his son restrain and calm now, hoping that His Majesty can gradually change his opinion of his son.

The emperor's elder brother had a total of four heirs, and the eldest prince, as the eldest son, was quite talented in government affairs, so he was appointed as the crown prince, that is, the next His Majesty Aldrich.

The second prince and the third prince have no talent in political affairs or cultivation, and the two have no ambitions, and they are willing to be powerless royals for the rest of their lives, and live their lives leisurely.

Thirty thousand years ago, when the human race had just risen, it was like a ray of sunrise at the dawn of dawn, breaking through the dark ages. Kingdoms began to be established in various places, and the first royal families were formed.

However, due to the fact that the royal family does not know how to share power, as time goes by, there are more and more members of the royal family, resulting in many royal family personnel who have no virtue and ability to grasp the lifeblood of the country and make the country complain.

As a result, many kingdoms were overthrown and destroyed by the people who rebelled. After a few times, the royal families of later generations gradually summed up the experience of the "predecessors".

In order to avoid chaos caused by the flood of royal personnel, after the establishment of the Orion Empire, the Orion royal family divided the future royal family into three types of people.

The first type, the rulers: the emperor as the leader, and the contemporary royal family whose abilities are recognized by the ministers. It can be one person or several. These members of the imperial family were given the position of the highest prince and the second prince by the emperor in their personal capacity. It was used to assist the emperor in the internal affairs of the empire, but not to interfere in military affairs.

The second type, the ordinary royal family: the prince who has no duties and only has the status of royalty, enjoys the treatment of an earl. After the abdication of the previous emperor, he will lose his status as the heir, that is, the name will be crossed off the "list".

This is also to "give way" to the ruling members of the royal family, who are more useful to the empire. But the general emperor would not have included such members of the royal family in the "list". The second and third sons of the contemporary emperor England were members of this type of royal family, and they were also not included in the "list" by England.

The emperor's son could only enjoy the treatment of an earl unless he had great talent, and his grandson was demoted to the same rank as the prince's son until he became a commoner without any title. In this way, there are not a few people who have a royal name but do not have a royal status.

These royal family members want to move up the ranks, or even become county kings and princes, so they can only desperately improve their merits. It's just that there are not many such competitors, and most of them have to be obtained in war, so it is very difficult.

Prince Lunn is also one of a kind, and he now enjoys the title of viscount. If he didn't have enough merit to impress the emperor and his ministers, he would only be a pitiful worm without any rights in his life, and it would be even more difficult for his next generation to become the king of the county.

The third type, royal worship: this kind of person has an extremely special status, and they are the ultimate embodiment of royal force. Only the most talented members of the royal family could be selected into it, and they would be fully poured and cultivated by the cultivation resources of the entire empire. As for the treatment they can enjoy, there is no need to say much.

It's just that there are very few people who can become royal worshippers, and most of the royal worshippers are still foreign surnames, and the fourth son of England is this kind of person.
