Chapter 541: A New Turning Point for the Succession to the Throne
The eldest prince, now that the king has collapsed, the first king has not set up any heirs before the king again, as the eldest son, you should inherit the throne and calm the domestic turmoil. ”
The old Duchess Joy Chesnat suggested that at this moment the king had collapsed, and that among the royal family and among all the nobles, there was only this one, who was both the uncle of the old emperor and the highest elder of the current reincarnated prince.
At the same time, it is also the highest ranking among the four major princes in China.
So no matter what angle you stand on, now, only he can say this kind of thing, and after this sentence is said.
After most of them looked at each other, they knelt down in unison and bowed to Helsay, who was standing in front of the old king's sickbed.
"Wait for the new King of Hersaise!!"
When Hersayy heard this, he immediately closed his mouth with joy, and at the same time, his mind had begun to fantasize about the enthronement ceremony, and the crown and robes he had dreamed of for decades, and the beautiful pictures of countless beauties and achievements.
But at this time, Magnolia Duchess Magnolia Alice walked in front of everyone and looked up at the triumphant Hull Circuit on the stage.
"Everyone be quiet, be quiet, listen to me!!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience immediately fell silent, and at the same time looked at Magnolia Alice with strange eyes.
"Duke Magnolia Alice, what are you doing?", Joey Chesnat was a little angry, he was now ready to welcome the new king to the throne, but suddenly jumped out of the junior, as if he had objections to his decision.
No matter from any point of view, Magnolia Alice is clearly slapping Joey Chessnut in the face when she jumps out.
So Joey Chesnat immediately retorted.
And Magnolia Alice also knew that she shouldn't have come forward in this situation, and after thinking about it for a long time, she didn't want her so many years of plans to be shattered.
Another very important reason is that more than ten days ago, a mysterious messenger came to the Grand Duke City of Magnolia and sent her a letter.
The contents of the letter are so important that if what is said in the letter is true, then the current battle for the succession to the throne is true.
On the surface, it seems that the eldest prince Hersey will inevitably become the new king, but if that thing is there, it will probably all be overturned, and then the whole succession to the throne will be repeated with another form of development.
Because of this, Magnolia Alice really had to face all the pressure at this moment and stand up directly.
The consequences of standing up, she also considered that he would be attacked by the old Duke Joey Chesnat, so after the other party belittled her, she replied directly without cowardice.
"Joey Chesnat why don't I seem to be left with you, right?"
"You are a duke, and I am also a duke, and my military merits are higher than yours, my territory is bigger than yours, and I have more soldiers than you, so can't I say a word here?"
At this point, Magnolia Alice paused, walked forward again, glared at Helsay, turned around, and said again to the crowd.
"The succession of the new king is about the development of our entire country, and even whether our country can continue to prosper and move forward and achieve greater goals for hundreds of years to come."
"So today, at such an important moment, we have to be cautious, and Magnolia Alice, as one of the four dukes of this country, also has to say something!!"
Magnolia Alice said impassionedly, originally the hall was overwhelmed, and everyone thought that Hersey should be the ironclad king, and the king of heaven did not say who was his heir before his death, and did not personally determine the position of this heir.
Then according to common sense, it should be the eldest prince Helsay who inherits the throne, which is unquestionable, so many people chose to stand at the beginning.
Or is it because they don't have a choice at all, so they can only choose to agree.
But now, as one of the four major dukes of this country, Magnolia Alice actually stood up, obviously opposed, which made many officials present, and many counts and viscounts, began to waver, and 13 people nodded yes!!
And in the face of this situation, Helsay, who had been carried away by desire, was suddenly poured a layer of cold water, which was extremely uncomfortable.
"Your Excellency Duke Magnolia Alice, do you have any problem with my succession to the throne?"
Hersey decided to start retorting, paused, and said as he walked down.
"As the eldest son of the king, as the eldest prince of this country, I think I am fully qualified to inherit this throne. ”
"For so many years, my father has been bedridden, sometimes he can't, sometimes he can't, I am responsible for many political affairs in the kingdom, every decree I have issued, everyone has seen it, I have made achievements, everyone can see it, why can't I be the successor king?"
Helsay's words were like a hammer in everyone's hearts, causing ripples, and everyone nodded.
Hersey did tell an objective fact, for so many years, the king has been in a hospital bed, and the second prince and the eldest prince are almost at the same level as the first prince to deal with the affairs of the country.
As the eldest son, the eldest prince has great power, and many times he is much more effective than the second prince.
Over the course of almost a decade, he issued many decrees, suppressed many, many rebels, manipulated border trade, and fended off foreign enemies.
So when Hersaye said this, he really wasn't bragging, and everyone felt justified.
Moreover, this time of laying out the facts and speaking reasonably, everyone felt that in this case, whether in terms of identity or from some previous circumstances, Helsail should be a well-deserved new king.
But even like this, Magnolia Alice still refused to bow her head, but took a step forward and was only one side away from Hersey, and between the two pairs of aggressive eyes, there was an inexplicable smell of gunpowder.
Everyone only heard Magnolia Alice groan.
"The reason is very simple, that is, our old king, our new king once made an edict to choose an heir!!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, and no one expected that things would turn so drastically.
The old king had made an edict, and Joey Chesnat, the king's own uncle, didn't know anything about it.
Everyone looked at Helsay's face was also pale, and it was obvious that he didn't know anything about it.
"This is impossible, as the king's own uncle, it is impossible for me not to know that the king has made an edict, how can you, as an outsider, know?"
Joy Chesnat couldn't figure it out, and retorted as he took two steps into the money.
As soon as Joey Chestnut finished speaking, Helsey directly sneered and added.
"That's right, Duke Joey Chesnat is right, the duke, as the king's uncle, he doesn't know, and I, as the son of the previous king, don't know anything, how can you make me believe you?"
At this moment, everyone in the audience felt that the situation was becoming more and more delicate, and no one knew what would happen in the next moment.
So many people chose to remain silent and quietly wait for this to happen.
As for this matter, what will happen later, they can only wait until the matter is clear before they come out to take sides.
"It's very simple, because the second prince is right, your eldest son Helsai did some things that his son shouldn't do, didn't he?"
Yixiu and the third prince Hessey hid on the beam of the house and watched, Magnolia Alice was full of power and nodded silently.
Then Ichishu saw Helsey frowning and pretending to be nothing.
"Then since the Duchess of Magnolia Ellis said that my father had written a letter of succession for the new king, then please take out the things and let everyone taste them!"
As he spoke, Helsey unscrupulously reached out and begged Magnolia Alice for something.
But Magnolia Alice suddenly sneered, and then took a step back, and glanced at the old king who had returned to heaven.
Then, Magnolia Alice took out a very luxurious scroll of silk from her cuff.
Seeing the style of the silk and the quality, everyone can see at a glance that this is definitely something for the king.
Because at present, folk crafts can never make such exquisite things, and this kind of thing is still contraband.
Under normal circumstances, only the national letters, such as those that went to war with foreign countries, as well as the earls, dukes, queens, princes, princesses, and princesses of this rank will be used.
So after this circle of things was taken out, everyone's hearts chuckled.
Although everyone didn't know what was written in it, they vaguely felt that something was wrong, because if the successor written in it was the current eldest prince Helsay.
According to common sense, there is no reason for Magnolia Ellis to stand up, the frown of this new king, which is not good for anyone.
If this is not the case, there is only one explanation, and it is possible that the successor written in this letter is not the eldest prince Helsay, or the second prince.
But what everyone never expected was that Magnolia Alice said that she was not in a hurry to open the scroll, and then read it out in public.
But he walked straight to Joey Chesnat and handed him the scroll in his hand.
"Duke Joey Chesnert, this is when the king is dying, he sent someone to send it to the Duchess, and please help me to see, what is written in it?"
The next moment, everyone's eyes looked at Joey Chesnat neatly, and after Joey Chesnat glanced at it, his face changed drastically, and then he said five words that shocked everyone present:
The Third Prince Hessey!!
