Chapter 702: Exposed
Outside the window, fires rose into the sky.
Usually a warlock who couldn't even easily find a single one to look for it, actually hovered in mid-air on various flying mounts, so that every resident of the imperial capital could clearly see the smooth hairy feathers on the mounts.
In the blink of an eye, the manor was surrounded by countless soldiers, and several knights in red armor rushed into the gate of the manor, already handing hands with the knights in the house.
When Edward and his aunt were hurriedly escorted to the carriage, they broke out of the encirclement and rushed into the prepared safe house, he was still a little confused, as if the knights on his aunt's side were also a little powerful, and there were still a lot of them, and the red-clothed armor was the elite of Prince Harry's side, all of whom were powerful people who had received the tilt of the top resources of the royal family since childhood.
Such a person...... I was stunned that I didn't break through the defenses of my aunt's house.
There was the roar of swords clashing in his ears, and from time to time there was an explosion, and his mood was extremely complicated.
But Edmund felt that his master was very calm.
The knights also felt that their master was too prescient, and maybe there were other hole cards, and they were more relaxed at once.
At such a time, the people above are reliable enough and do not mess up, which can obviously give people great comfort.
Edward: "......"
He had indeed expected that something big might happen in the imperial capital at any time, and it might be dangerous, but it was not the danger of Prince Harry leading his troops into the palace.
The Yonglan Empire has no shortage of iron and blood, no shortage of killing, from the father down, most of the princes and princesses have learned knightly skills since they were young, and all of them are good at commanding troops.
The royal palace has been rebuilt seven times in a hundred years, and the name has been changed five times, but during the reign of his father, Yonglan was very peaceful.
His father, Garfield the Great, was widely loved by nobles and commoners during his reign, and everyone admired and respected him, and his sons and daughters were people who did not have much ambition, and the whole family had a very good reputation among the people.
As the eldest son of the queen, Prince Harry has always been valued by his father, and apart from not having the title of crown prince, he deserves nothing but nothing.
The throne of the king of the Yonglan Empire, at present, it seems that his chances of getting it are much higher than those of other heirs, as long as he holds on, he has more than ninety percent of the chance of becoming the final winner.
Edward really didn't understand, although now that the queen had died, this incident might cause some fluctuations in Prince Harry's heart, but how could he suddenly rebel without any warning.
No matter what Edward thought, the entire Yonglan Emperor was already in chaos.
Edward himself was trapped in a safe house by Edmund and his aunt, unable to step out, but his men were scattered throughout the streets of the imperial capital in an instant.
Every day new news comes in and is delivered to Lady Anne.
"Prince Harry has taken over the palace. But His Majesty was not found. ”
"More than half of the major nobles in the capital have taken refuge in Prince Harry, and among the remaining half, some have raised troops to confront Prince Harry, some have fled and disappeared, and some have closed their doors."
"Now Prince Harry's people are basically in control of the entire imperial capital, and several ministers of the Ministry of the Interior are dumbfounded, they were originally members of Prince Harry's party, and naturally supported Prince Harry to sit in the position of prince, but Prince Harry tossed like this, and half of these people changed their minds."
"Both Home Ministers of the Home Office today publicly condemned Prince Harry in front of the palace and demanded that he immediately withdraw from the palace and dismiss his men, but Prince Harry ignored them."
"The Minister of War is now sick, it is said that he is terminally ill, and he has invited several people from the Holy See to see him, and they all say that he must recuperate, but his deputy has evacuated the palace with the men of the Holy Order, and is now in pieces, and attacks Prince Harry's people every day."
The military map on the table showed the situation since the incident in detail, and Edward sat beside him, looking at his aunt and Edmund like a wooden man, and a group of knights discussing the problem with serious expressions, and sighed faintly.
His eyes slid over the faces of the people around him, and he knew for the first time that his aunt had a lot of power in the imperial capital, and the intelligence network was even more outstanding.
It is estimated that except for a few big figures, it is impossible for anyone to investigate the situation so clearly.
He always thought that his aunt was just the daughter of a common people's family, and she had the current family business, all because his mother saved the king back then.
The aunt in his sight is indeed a restrained, gentle woman, who likes to read, play the piano, write, and occasionally inlay her clothes with lace, decorate her hat, or fiddle with gems like young girls.
Now it seems that he is the real fool.
There was a rumor outside, and the flames of war were about to break out.
Edward sat in the safe house, worried more than just the war. He had a gut feeling that Prince Harry was not doing all this.
Growing up in such an environment, Edward was certainly not a simple person, he didn't pay attention to power, he didn't pay attention to power, but he didn't want to do nothing for the rest of his life.
Over the years, in addition to his intoxication with calligraphy and painting, he has also run a lot of business, and his business is not only in Yonglan, but also in several neighboring countries.
Edward may still owe some heat to those giants, but in terms of money, he is not much worse than several siblings such as Prince Harry, who has a strong mother's family and his father's serious support.
Edward was a smart man to be able to do such a business, and he didn't have much affection for his siblings, especially Prince Harry.
But he still knew Harry, how could the person who had been carefully taught by his father to take over the throne of the Yonglan Empire in the future be a madman? His character is not untrustworthy.
At least, he would never rebel because of some trivial matter, an unworthy reason.
Now it was another time like this, and Edward didn't dare to think about it too much.
"I knew that I wouldn't deliberately avoid these things in the imperial capital all these years."
——————
Until now, his aunt and the people under her have put the military map in front of him, and explained the respective actions of the nobles in the imperial capital one by one, and have never shied away from him, but he is still like a wood, he doesn't understand this, can't judge, and can't react.
However, there was one thing he could see, although neither his aunt nor Edmund said anything.
But Prince Harry's people ignored the nobles who were fighting with him in an open fire, and they didn't pay attention to the nobles who were closed, so they sent troops to raid his house first.
"Mother's ......"
"Call Auntie."
Lady Anne corrected.
Edward was more willful when he was a child, not to say that Lady Anne was his mother, he kept screaming, he was young at the time, Lady Anne felt sorry for him, so she went with him, but as the Duke of the Yonglan Empire, Lady Anne didn't want him to be rude in front of outsiders, and always told him not to shout casually when there were outsiders.
"Auntie, has Prince Harry been targeting us since this happened? Why, aunt, do you know? ”
Edward frowned, "If anything, he's targeting me and thinks I'm a threat to him...... But Sheeran, Hamm, York, Andre, any of them were more of a threat to him than I was, but he ignored them. ”
Although Sister Xilan is a woman, she is a powerful person, and she is also in charge of the Golden Guard, which is the only one of all the guards in the imperial capital that has a warlock legion.
Everyone else has their own hole cards.
But what about yourself? He Edward is a well-known literary and artistic person, since he was a child, he likes painting, attending balls, drinking and talking with beautiful young ladies, his no ambition, but he is not casually made to show people, that is real, since he was a child, he has not shown much qualification in politics.
"Is he targeting his aunt?"
Edward's heart was furious, "Prince Harry thinks his aunt hurt the queen?" ”
That night, when Edward was half asleep, he suddenly heard all kinds of chaotic footsteps and fighting outside, and the others let Edmund roll up in the quilt, even cover his head, and resist the shoulders and rush outward.
Edward's head was rolled up in the quilt, and he couldn't see the situation outside, he could only hear all kinds of noisy sounds, and he was even more scared in his heart, and couldn't help but say in his heart, it would be nice if Yu Yingjun was nearby!
In a pinch, he really missed the girl who seemed to be omnipotent.
Yang Yuying was really standing on the high wall next to her to watch the chaos at this moment, but she didn't pay attention to Edward, so she stared at the two people who were facing each other not far away.
Hugh stood silently behind her and whispered, "Let's just observe, don't care." ”
Yang Yuying didn't speak, at this time, the street under her feet was already full of fire, and the ordinary people were running around crying, and what caused all this was not the insect plague she had thought about, but two groups of human beings.
Not far away, Prince Harry's red-armored knight was unsheathed.
Lady Anne on the opposite side is also dressed in battle armor, heroic and cool, and the knights around her are relatively low-key, but in terms of bravery, they are not familiar with the red armor knights at all.
The two sides are glued together, and people keep falling.
This war is so primitive, yet so meaningless.
Hugh Ke: "I really think it's strange, people who practice martial arts, practice their magic skills day after day, how much sweat and how much blood they shed in order to succeed in learning, how can they draw a knife and kill people so easily?" ”
He likes to fight, fight with his companions, and fight with any stranger, but there is nothing else in this world that can make him raise his sword and fall into the killing, except for the glory of the Nata tribe, that is, for the life and death of his companions.
"Why are they fighting?"
Hatred? Survive? Dignity?
When Hugh was born, Nata had just recovered a little from the disaster, and every Natarian was particularly precious, and every Natarian valued his companions.
I heard that a long time ago, Nata also fell into a chaotic day, his own people killed his own people, every step of the crisis, everywhere danger, but Hugh only read in the information, when he was born, the Nata people have become the most united race in the whole universe, and each of their warriors can fight hard with any force in order to protect their clansmen, especially cubs.
Harry stared at Anne, his eyes red, and his forehead bruised, "What, showing your true face?" Only the Father will believe that you are innocent, how can you be innocent? Oh, I'm going to see if those bastards will regret it when I kill you and kill Edward! ”
There was a hint of sadness in Anne's expression: "You are wrong. ”
She said only that, and then bowed her head and fell silent.
The situation on this street was like a ball of thread that could not be disassembled, Hugh Ke did not look at it, and his eyes were a little evasive, but he made up his mind, and if he said not to interfere, he would not interfere.
He only stared at the detection software on the communicator, nervous when he saw the red logo gathering, and bit his fingernails when he saw the red retreat, and continued to send various messages to the universe while biting.
Yang Yuying glanced at him and suddenly smiled.
"Big beauty, what are you laughing at?"
"Well, I don't know."
Yang Yuying blinked, she just felt that she should be the most nervous and top-notch, but she was very calm at this time, and she was not as anxious as Xiuke.
She didn't know that she was the kind of character who was more relaxed the more things came.
These two groups of people are still fighting for life and death, Hugh Ke didn't want to see it, and reached out to hold Yang Yuying's arm: "Let's go, it's almost dawn, go back and rest." ”
Yang Yuying nodded, and the two of them disappeared into the night as soon as they flashed.
I don't know if Edward knew that he was experiencing a life-and-death crisis below, and the girl who had saved him was not even happy to raise his hand to catch him, and he didn't know what his mood would be.
Luckily, he wouldn't know.
Yang Yuying and Hugh Ke flew lightly on the eaves, and even if others saw them, they would probably suspect that they were dazzled, and that it was an image left by the green smoke blown away by the wind.
After walking a few steps, the shouting in the distance gradually became quieter, Hugh Ke suddenly frowned, raised the communicator and looked: "Hmm, let's turn a corner." ”
When Yang Yuying heard the sound and looked at the street in front of her, she saw more than a dozen insects walking down the street with a dozen little girls.
The eldest of these little girls was eleven or twelve years old, and the youngest was only seven or eight years old, and each of them was very beautiful and cute, with pure eyes, dark hair, and gentle smiles.
They are not very old and may be a little scared, but everyone holds hands in twos and threes to cheer each other on: "They gave a lot of money, which is enough for my grandma to save her life." ”
"My family too, my father took the money and was able to pay my brother's tuition. The host gave a lot of money, and he must have attached great importance to us, and he didn't suffer a loss when he went. ”
Huke's footsteps stopped instantly.
He recognized one of the little girls, with blond hair and sky-blue eyes with a beautiful glint in them.
Hugh Ke remembered that the little girl's voice was very sweet, several times sweeter than the desserts made by the girl at home, and the moment she called herself 'big brother,' he thought of his little sister far away from home.
Suddenly, the sword light was shining, reflecting the night sky.
Hugh flew down with his sword, his dark cloak covering the child's eyes, and the knife slashed at the insect's eyebrows without hesitation.
With a loud bang, the good man turned into a gray-green worm one and a half years tall.
Countless frightened cries rang out in the room to the left and right.
