Chapter 176: Cleanup and Awakening
"Move fast, clean up."
"Wow!"
A large number of Praetorian Guard soldiers carried buckets full of water and splashed blood stains on the ground, washing the ground in the square in front of the temple over and over again.
Fortunately, the royal capital was built on the edge of the Jinlong River, and the water source was sufficient.
There were many cisterns built in the palace, and they were all used to wash the blood stains on the ground.
The corpse in front of the main hall has been cleaned up, because Wren did not accept the order to surrender, and the final battle was extremely tragic,
Although the corpses have been transported out of the city, it is difficult to clean up the blood stains left on the square in a short time, and a strong smell of blood may not be able to dissipate in a short time.
For a long time to come, the monarchs and ministers of the Golden Dragon Kingdom had to come and go in this smell of blood.
Qing has returned to his own courtyard, this old man only knows about his existence by the kings of the Golden Dragon Kingdom, and this time he is completely exposed to people.
Wren was holding his shoulders, calculating the gains and losses of this turmoil.
The secrets of the royal family are exposed to two,
One is that there is a secret passage in the palace that is enough to pass through the army, which has now been exposed, and it must not be used, so it can only be temporarily blocked.
The second is that Qing, an unimaginable powerhouse, also appeared in front of everyone for the first time, after all, the nobles present at that time were not fools, but they all said that they were human spirits.
There are only a few people like Viscount Sauter, and that sigh and the last Qing by Wren's side can easily connect the two.
showed so many cards, but the harvest did not make Wren very satisfied,
After all, the main goal of the church's upper echelons, especially the Pope,
And most of the powers that Nozomi exposed can only be regarded as a joke in Wren's eyes, and in Wren's eyes, Nozomi is just a tool he uses to fish.
Most of his actions are under Wren's control, and this action is to put all the forces he integrated into the eldest prince's department on the gambling table, just so that Wren can catch them all.
Only Pagathou was an unexpected surprise, but he didn't expect the church leaders to dig such a deep nail in the upper echelons of the kingdom.
…
First Banner Regiment Station,
The sound of fighting in the square in front of the palace not far away before had already made the middle and lower rank officers and soldiers of the First Banner Regiment of the Praetorian Guard feel more and more that something was wrong.
It's just that the head of the flag has been pressing not to let people investigate or let people out of the camp, and everyone can only wait anxiously.
Waiting until the fighting had subsided for a long time, several Golden Palace knights entered the garrison with the king's orders and hundreds of soldiers,
The knights of the Golden Palace, with the king's command, could not hinder them from entering the camp.
Only a few dozen guards tried to stop it, and they were easily suppressed by the soldiers brought by the knights of the Golden Temple,
"Bang!"
The Golden Palace Knights led by him violently kicked open the door of the room where the head of the First Banner Regiment was located,
As a captain-level knight of the Golden Palace, with the strength of a great knight, he is not afraid of a flag leader.
However, when the door was kicked open, what he saw was not a heavily armed Kingdom officer, but a corpse dressed in the robes of the Cult of the Rising Sun.
The corpse collapsed on the table, with dark lips and a pale face, apparently poisoned to death,
A knight of the Golden Palace walked up to the other and probed the other's snort and confirmed his death.
"Rip off that robe and burn it."
In the previous battle, the Golden Palace Knights were beaten by the Pope and suffered a lot of casualties, and the captain of the Golden Palace Knights was also on fire in his heart.
At this time, I thought I could fight a fight, but I didn't expect the other party to commit suicide directly, and even this bit of combat merit had to give him a discount.
"Call the people of the First Banner Regiment to identify the people, and then bring the body back to hand it over."
"Yes, my lord"
This scene was staged in the palace guards, as well as in various places in the royal capital,
was already targeted by the black prison, and the ones exposed in this rebellion, were found one by one.
They don't have the strength of the Pope or Hussein to escape the Kingdom's violent apparatus.
"Your Majesty, the remnants of the church in the royal capital and some of the elements involved in the rebellion have been arrested according to the list, and all those who resisted were killed on the spot, and some of the fugitives are being pursued with all their might."
Harris is reporting the results of this operation to Wren, and many people have problems with the fact that the black prison has long grasped the situation, just to cooperate with Wren's actions, and has not been alarmed.
This time he made such a big move, at least Wang Dunei was relatively clean, and the rest of the church couldn't do anything in a short time.
"Hmm"
Wren nodded, acknowledging Harris's actions.
"Your Majesty, there is one more thing..."
"Huh?"
"Prince Ward controlled some of the city guards before, and there were signs of sorties, but in the end they were not launched."
"Hehe, worthy of being my good son."
This kind of thing, Wren can understand it after thinking about it for a while,
Ward is his eldest son, and he only has the strength of the peak of a quasi-knight, so logically speaking, he has no inheritance.
But rules can be used to obey, and nature can also be used to break.
If Nozomi kills him, Ward will then transfer his own city guards to attack the palace and take Nozomi down.
Who's to say he's not eligible to inherit?
Of course, the premise is that he has to have the opportunity to kill Nozomi in a short time, otherwise according to tradition, the legitimacy of Nozomi's succession to the throne is above him.
"This ambition is the seed of our Charman family, but unfortunately, it lacks some brains."
Wren even commented on Ward's actions, like a father helping his son summarize the gains and losses of a certain exam.
Harris stood silently to the side and did not answer, he was only responsible for telling Wren the information, this kind of Charman's family affairs, it was not his turn to take care of the beak.
"By the way, how's Richard doing?"
Richard's performance this time made Wren quite satisfied, loyalty and bravery, and strength in Wren's eyes Richard is not lacking.
The natural favorability is not low, so you should pay more attention to it.
"Lord Richard didn't suffer any injuries, he should have used some secret technique to stimulate his potential, and he is a little weak at this time."
Similar potential to stimulate secret techniques, the Black Prison itself has a lot, but the consequences of using it are light and severe.
It is not surprising that Richard's post-war detachment was judged by Harris to have used a secret technique to stimulate potential.
"Well, send the best doctor in the palace over, and you can take whatever you need directly."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
…
In a richly decorated room, several doctors were discussing something around a large bed.
"I think Lord Richard is overstimulating his potential, and he is a little weak, so he can use the flame spirit with deer antler velvet as medicine."
"Won't this make up for too much, Lord Richard is in a weakened phase."
"Lord Richard has excellent strength and a good physical foundation, so there should not be a situation where he is unable to make up for it."
"You can control the dose of the decoction, it shouldn't be a big problem."
While several people were discussing, Richard suddenly opened his eyes and looked up at his surroundings.
"What is this?"
"Lord Richard is awake, does Lord Richard feel unwell?"
After Richard got up, he ignored the questions of several court physicians, but contacted Zebul and the others first.
"Squeak~"
Zebble pushed open the door and walked in.
"Your Excellency, you're awake."
"Hmm"
Spotting that Zeble and the two Vanguard Knights were still nearby, Richard was relieved.
It's a bit outrageous to use the angel necklace and the berserk potion at the same time,
When the effect of the berserk potion passed, Richard collapsed directly to the ground and lost consciousness.
Although he is conscious now, his limbs are still in a state of weakness, and in his current state, an ordinary person can stab him to death with a knife, so he is naturally extremely insecure, and he was relieved until Zebul came in.
"I'm fine, you guys go down first."
Richard knows his own business, this time he is playing a little bigger, and it is estimated that he will have to be weak for several days to recover.
"Well, we'll get you through it later."
"Hmm."
Richard didn't refuse, this precious decoction can play some role in his recovery, although it doesn't have much effect, but this is also the kingdom's inventory, he is a meritorious hero, and it is safe to spend some of the kingdom's resources.
"Princess Messiah."
"Is Richard here?"
"Well, Lord Richard is inside."
At this moment, a glutinous female voice came in from outside the door,
Then Dow's graceful figure appeared in the room.
"Woo, Richard, I'm so worried..."
As he spoke, he came up and hugged Richard, and Zebul and the others also knew each other and did not stop him.
"Uh-uh..."
Only Richard was a little held for breath because he was weak......
