"He's awake!"

As soon as the queen's words fell, there was an uproar in the hall.

Birlo, Tirpitz, Falkenhein, the faces of the ministers and generals were full of surprise.

There was no surprise here, probably only General Graff, as the commander of the Praetorian Guard in the palace and a close confidant of the emperor, he naturally knew about Prince's situation. As for the officers and men of the Praetorian Guard, political events were not what they should be concerned about, and although some knew and some did not, everyone still had a cold expression.

"Oh God!"

Bilow couldn't help but exclaim that this not only meant that the outcome of the cabinet meeting just now had no effect, but that it would have an even more unimaginable impact on Germany.

Although the generals tried their best to keep their composure, they knew in their hearts how serious this was, and that an empire, no matter how powerful, could decay because of the struggle for the throne. As soon as Wilhelm II died, Prince, who had the first right of succession. William and Gigi, who has great exploits and supporters. William, neither will easily give up their desire for the imperial throne.

"Your Majesty, if His Highness Prince has woken up, it would be a great comfort to the Empire, but why are we all completely unaware of this news?"

The whole hall fell silent again, it was the Admirati Tirpitz who had just spoken, although his tone was very plain and respectful, but the doubts behind this sentence were self-evident, and he was the only one who dared to ask such a question, knowing that after the German Navy defeated the British Navy and became the world's first navy, Tirpitz's reputation in the country was skyrocketing, and even Wilhelm II did not dare to easily move his position as Minister of the Navy.

Immediately afterwards, Biloh also said as if asking, "If His Highness has really woken up, then we will have to renegotiate the succession to the throne!" ”

The queen glanced at Billow and Tirpitz one by one with extremely slow movements, Billow's attitude was as modest and neutral as ever, while Tirpitz had a resolute expression and did not squint.

"This is what Your Majesty meant, don't announce this news to the public for the time being! As for his reason......" said the Empress, glancing back at Wilhelm II, who was getting cold, and then said nothing.

General Falkenhain only glanced at Tirpitz, but still didn't seem to have any intention of speaking.

Billo fell into thought, and many people in the hall began to whisper, and there was naturally no shortage of people waiting to see the show.

A few minutes later, Birlo talked to Tirpitz and Falkenhain in a low voice, and then walked up to the queen and said something, the queen thought for a moment and nodded slightly. Immediately afterwards, Barrow walked to the center of the hall and said in a loud voice:

"Ladies and gentlemen, for various reasons, our Government has withdrawn its previous declaration on the question of succession to the throne, and our Government and Cabinet will further discuss and deliberate on this. Now, we will arrange a bedroom for everyone present, and until the assassination of His Majesty is revealed, you need to continue to stay in the palace to cooperate with our investigation, and we hope that you can understand and considerate! ”

After this, General Graf's soldiers "invited" the people in the hall to their respective rooms, and only a few cabinet ministers and a few senior generals of the army and navy remained in the hall, and the newly established Air Force Department had basically no say here because of the lack of rank.

"Your Majesty, will we be able to meet His Highness Prince?" When it comes to the throne of a country, as the prime minister, Bilo naturally seems more cautious.

"This ......" At this point, Empress Victoria seemed a little hesitant, "do you have to see him?" His situation is not stable now, isn't it ......"

"Your Majesty, what we need to determine is the heir of the empire, a person who has the ability to fulfill the duties of the emperor!" Tirpitz coldly hinted.

Tirpitz's attitude was not entirely subjective and in fact because his naval theory was based on the idea that the navy was used in warfare, the founder of the German navy was considered a dangerous figure by Wilhelm II after the war, and the emperor even intended to have the chief of naval staff Boll, the Minister of Maritime Müller, and the commander-in-chief of the navy Ingnoll form a group to take control of the navy under his own leadership, so as to ensure that "the German navy could be on the defensive". Thankfully, Chentian cooperated with Tirpitz and took the initiative to raid the British Pascalflo naval base against the emperor's orders, and the German navy really rose from then on, and the contradictions between Tirpitz and the emperor were also covered up and hidden under the brilliant victory.

"Your Excellency, are you doubting my words?" The queen seemed to want people to know that she wasn't as weak as she looked, but Tirpitz's eyes didn't flinch.

"Your Majesty, I beg your pardon, I don't mean to be offended!"

"Your Majesty, before the cabinet revisits the discussion of the heir to the throne, I would like to talk to His Highness Prince!"

When Birlo said this, the queen was obviously a little disappointed and helpless.

"He's still recovering!" After repeating it, Victoria slowly left the hall with the help of the maid, and Billo and the others followed without saying a word.

At this time, everyone has their own thoughts in their hearts.

When the second piece of information from Berlin was handed over to Chentian, the "Stuttgart" was slowly approaching the docks of the port of Cherbourg.

"The emperor is really dead!" Chen Tian breathed a deep sigh of relief, if the emperor did not die unexpectedly, he basically had no chance to fight for the throne before he abdicated or died of old age, although the battle was not personally commanded by Wilhelm II, but after all, he led Germany into a war with brilliant results.

The moment he stepped on the deck, Chen Tian suddenly felt that this world was so beautiful, even the air was extremely fresh, and the cold sea peak became the most ideal brain awakening agent at this moment.

There were two rows of soldiers standing neatly on the dock, and the railway station in Cherbourg was not far from the dock, but the Cherbourg garrison still prepared several armored vehicles and cars for Chen Tian and his party.

"Salute to you!"

As Chentian walked by, the soldiers in the pointed helmets saluted (at that time, only two army groups were equipped with M16 steel helmets), as if they were watching the young marshal ascend to a higher throne.

Chen Tian didn't say much, and after getting into the car, he began to think about what would happen after returning to Berlin.

When Rainey, who has rough skin and thick flesh, also feels like he's about to freeze, it means it's really cold. The poor man, who had been wandering for hours outside Prince's bedchamber, had finally come to a place where he could see Prince's bedroom, the last time he had sneaked in, but outside that bedroom stood a whole platoon of guards, and even the windows were heavily guarded. It seems that the impact of Rainey's last time killing two guards was too great, but luckily the ninjas are good at lurking, believing that as long as they wait with their super stamina, the enemy will always let up and show their flaws.

Prince's room was still dimly lit, but there was no one in sight, and the guards outside changed every two hours, and everyone walked lightly, as if they were afraid of waking up the people in the room.

Finally, the silence was broken by the sound of footsteps, and the Queen, Birlo, and the others appeared in the hallway. Rainey didn't know much about the purpose of their visit, and by the light of the wall lamp, he found that these people were of a very high level, and he had no chance to blend in, so he continued to hide in the hidden place and observe what was about to happen.

After a while, with the arrival of the queen and her party, the chandelier in Prince's room was lit, and the whole room was bright.

Much like the last time Rainey had seen, Prince sat up with the help of the guards. Bilo and the others closed their mouths in surprise one by one, and the expressions of disbelief were written on the faces of these important ministers and generals of the empire, and more people didn't know whether to be happy or sad at once.

It is an indisputable fact that Prince's eyes are open.

"Your Highness!"

Barrow and the generals saluted, but the attentive soon noticed that there was no change in the expression on Prince's face, and that his gaze was glazed.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness, he ......" Bilow looked at Queen Victoria in confusion.

"Alas...... He's still recovering! The queen still said that.

"Your Majesty, can you ask the best brain doctor in the country to make a detailed diagnosis for Your Highness, the Cabinet needs to discuss something important based on Your Highness's current situation and expected recovery!" Bilow didn't say it was discussing eligibility for the throne, but the queen and the others knew in their hearts that it was "something very important."

The queen looked straight at Prince, and the look was very complicated, with kindness and expectation, and it took a while for her to turn her face to look at Birlo.

"Prince, he's awake, that's enough!"

Birlow glanced at Tirpitz and Falkenhein, both of whom had grim expressions, and it was clear that the army was unwilling to accept a man who was not even an ordinary person as the supreme commander.

"Your Majesty, with all due respect, in the current situation, it is very necessary for Your Highness to be examined! The Cabinet must be accountable to the country and the people! After Birlow said this, the Army and Navy Department expressed their support for him in silence.

The queen looked at the other people silently, especially the faces of the generals, and then she did not object, after all, she had no ambition and no ability to be the queen mother of such a huge empire.

After this, the ministers and generals did not leave Prince's room, and after about two hours, a group of Praetorian Guards officers and soldiers brought with them five or six men who looked like doctors.

Rainey silently observed all this, and then, as the night was about to leave, he had to leave under the cover of darkness, otherwise he might be discovered by the guards when it was dark. With regret and apprehension, the big man cautiously exited Prince's bedchamber.

An hour later, Billo and the others walked out of Prince's bedroom with their heads down, everyone was silent with a straight face, and Billo frowned even more.

"If there's no difference between being awake and falling asleep, why wake up?" Tirpitz muttered discontentedly that the news of the Emperor's death would spread throughout the world after dawn, but the successor of the empire was still uncertain, much to the displeasure of the generals who supported and approved of Chentian.
