The whole territory of Desik fell into chaos, the army killed each other, the senior generals were assassinated, the ships of the navy were sunk at the slightest resistance, and chaos became the main theme of the Desik Empire.

Of course, White Rock City is no exception.

Chaos was also growing in White Rock City, starting with the Great Military Tent. A group of black-clothed mages who don't know when they sneaked into the territory of Desik. After a long war, the emperor was also on the front line, and the guards of White Rock City were indeed much lax. The Kyoto garrison, which was originally responsible for guarding the city's defenses, went to the front, and only newly recruited recruits or young children of noble families were left in the city.

These people were also full of love for the Desik Empire and respect for the Emperor, completely ignoring the fact that the front line was defeated and Edward VI, who imprisoned himself in the palace as soon as he returned to White Rock City.

The man in black walked into the military tent, and soon, several golden wolf heads who stayed in the country followed them hand in hand, and there were constantly heralds walking out from behind them, scattering to the corner of the city. Groups of soldiers who had just returned to the camp put on their armor and weapons and assembled in the direction of the palace to the north of the city.

In a small courtyard in White Rock City, a woman in a gorgeous palace robe was coldly watching the soldiers running past the house. Those soldiers were soldiers who had just retreated from the south bank of the Morro River and had experienced the long and arduous battle with San Jose.

Who is going to organize them, and what are they going to do?

"Your Royal Highness Princess?" A greeting came from behind him, and an old court eunuch stepped forward with his body bent.

The woman turned around, her tall body and cold face seemed to have the words "Don't enter the living" written in big words, she was not very old, and her face was very resolute. "Alfred, why are you here?" the woman seemed slightly surprised when she saw someone coming.

"Her Royal Highness Princess Elizabeth!" the court eunuch saluted again, "the Prince's Lady has asked me to come and visit you. Knowing that you have returned to White Rock City, I am a little worried about you. ”

"Mother doesn't need to worry, although I have been following the third uncle in the north, but I have been so independent since I was a child, and my mother doesn't know it, isn't it, Alfred?"

The two people who talked to each other were Elizabeth, the daughter of Prince Ferdinand, the former crown prince of Desik, and the court eunuch of the prince's palace, who were also the housekeepers of their family.

Elizabeth had been walking in Desik since she had left Oakland after bidding farewell to Archduke Bazemore, and no one knew what she was planning. "Alfred, what the hell is going on in town, it's a mess. ”

The court eunuch named Alfred looked around and saw that there was no one but Elizabeth, so he replied in a low voice, "Edward VI has exhausted his military force, and he has overdrawn too much of Desik's potential in order to wage war, and his economy and finances are on the verge of collapse." Naturally, some people in China can't look past it, and this is no different from what he did a few years ago. ”

Elizabeth's mouth opened slightly, and she instantly understood what was going on, "Another coup d'état?"

The basis of Edward VI's coup d'état was that he had a heavy army of Desik at that time, and at the same time used persuasion, threats and bribery to obtain the support of some Steppenwolf riders, which was able to complete the battle, completely defeat the old emperor's guards, and ascend to the throne in one fell swoop. But after years of war, the nobles within the Desik Empire also had their dissatisfaction.

Originally, everyone lived a good life of aristocrats, although the Desik Empire was poorer, but no matter how poor it was, it was not as poor as the nobles, they should drink good wine, drink good wine, eat delicious food, eat delicious food. As soon as the war came, the first troops went to the Shang League, conquered large territories, and benefited their families from the captured property. The San Jose War that followed was not easy, first with the death of his sons, then with the collapse of the country's finances and the shortage of supplies, and the nobility without a good life.

The high-ranking officers of the Desik Dispatch Army in the territory of the Shang Alliance also began to listen to some of the Desik domestic propaganda. The situation in San Jose is stalemate, and even if all 150,000 troops are sent into San Jose to fight, it may not be of much use. Not to mention, it would mean that they would have to give up all the territory they had already gained.

As a result, as the situation changed, the nobles in Desik's country began to divide into three factions: the supporters of Edward VI, led by Generals Hans and Heinrich, firmly followed the emperor and gritted their teeth and insisted on the war; and the last faction, which is quite complex.

Some of them were the remnants of the conservative faction led by the former General King, who had managed to escape the emperor's pursuit, some were allies and supporters of the Earl of Norton, and some were cronies and family members of the former crown prince Prince Ferdinand, who had always been deeply suspicious of the prince's death.

And the representative of it is Elizabeth's mother, the wife of the former Crown Prince Ferdinand.

"You're saying that what happened here has something to do with my mother?" said Elizabeth, incredulous.

"The Prince's Lady has her own considerations, Your Highness the Princess. Edward VI was desperate to keep him like this, and the Desic Empire would be dragged into the abyss of Satan. So, when they come to your mother, your mother will not refuse. Alfred was quite respectful, as if he were stating an unrelated matter.

"She's wrong, Alfred! I know who you're talking about. ”

Finding the prince's wife is naturally the rise of darkness. The outward forces of this organization have been evacuated from the Desik army, but the forces behind the scenes have been in action. In fact, while Dark Rising had been a staunch ally of Edward VI for many years, their goal was never to help Edward VI conquer the continent. All along, they have only used Edward VI to cause chaos among the countries of the continent.

Ignorant people like the Prince's wife are also being used. Dark Rising moved Edward VI's supporters and opponents almost simultaneously, and all the affairs of Desik's country were proceeding according to the plan of the Dark Rising Patriarch.

The Prince's wife, or their faction, had long been blinded by hatred, and when so-called allies came to the door and said that there was a solution to Edward VI, they naturally rushed to meet him.

But just because they don't know doesn't mean Elizabeth doesn't know. "The one who helps you is the one who has risen from darkness, Alfred. Elizabeth asked in a low voice.

Although he did not speak, the old court eunuch still acquiesced, "The garrison soldiers will soon surround the palace, and the end of Emperor Edward will come." He said nonchalantly.

"What are you going to do when Edward is dead, where are you going to find another heir to the throne?" Elizabeth wondered.

Alfred didn't continue, but looked at Elizabeth in a daze. Elizabeth laughed angrily, "My mother is stupid." Darkness Rises, Are You Doing Charity as a Person?"

No matter what Elizabeth thinks, the army in White Rock that has been bought, infiltrated, and influenced by the Rise of Darkness is carrying out its actions in an orderly manner. They disarmed the uncooperative army and imprisoned them in the barracks of White Rock City, and then organized armed forces to surround the Desik Palace, the Emperor's Great Tent.

The Desik of today is not the Desik of a few years ago. At that time, General Jin was still there, tens of thousands of garrisons plus the Royal Guards Wasteland Samurai Regiment, who dared to make a mistake in White Rock City. Later, Edward VI staged a coup d'état to ascend to the throne, and a large number of Desik soldiers loyal to the emperor were sent to the battlefield to become cannon fodder. Immediately afterwards, Edward VI's own close soldiers also died in large numbers on the battlefield of San Jose.

When the rebellious soldiers surrounded the Emperor's premises, Edward VI, who was already in his old state, no longer had the spirit of his youth. Perhaps from the moment of defeat, Edward VI's heart was dead. Looking at the soldiers with swords and guns and staring at him with anger in his eyes, Edward VI seemed to want to laugh.

I don't know who organized the rebellion, but they can think of what these soldiers said: it was nothing more than the emperor's rebellion and the emperor's brutality...... The crowd suddenly parted, and an old lady dressed in full aristocratic attire slowly walked towards the palace gates. Edward VI stood there, the few hundred guards of the palace still loyally guarding his voice.

Seeing that the person who came was getting closer, Edward VI shook his head, "I didn't expect that the person behind the organization was you. But I think you've been deceived. ”

The man was furious, "Edward, don't talk about it. I have long decided in my heart that you are the culprit of Ferdinand and Kuigang's death!You launched a rebellion against the Desik Empire, and today you must give an account to all of our Desik nobles!" With the words of the comer, behind her, a large number of nobles stood up.

Edward VI's gaze swept over and he couldn't help but smile lightly, "You're all being taken advantage of. The nobles who didn't understand what he meant scolded angrily, but Edward VI didn't look at them with a straight eye, but shouted to the crowd behind them, "Don't hide, they don't know, you officers don't know." Come out, Dark Rising Bugs! I know, it's you!"

Suddenly, the audience fell silent. The soldiers were confused, the officers were ashamed, and the nobles were unhappy to be despised for a moment! There was only a moment of silence, and the rebellious nobles all scolded again, but it caused another scorn from Edward VI: "Although I am dying, my eyes are still there, a bunch of bugs." ”

As if to reflect his words, a stranger's voice suddenly came from the crowd, "Your Majesty the Emperor has good eyesight, let you know before you die, you didn't guess wrong." ”

As the words of the comer fell, a black ball of light suddenly appeared in the crowd, and all the nobles and soldiers looked at this ball of light in surprise and were speechless. Only Edward VI, who was not far away, snorted contemptuously, "It's still this trick." You've got your hands on it this time, and you're going to wipe out all of our Desik nobles!"

"Oh no, Mother is gone, too?" and in the other corner of White Rock City, Elizabeth looked anxiously at the court eunuch Alfred in front of her.
