Chapter 279 Order
Prime Minister Cenarius stood there, telling the story of a thrilling experience. However, the more he listened, the more Barrow felt that something was wrong, and when he heard that he was trembling in the end, he was so frightened that he almost couldn't stand and wanted to sit on the ground.
He was an extremely smart person, and at this time he had already experienced many strange things in the whole thing tonight, and his heart was full of questions.
Prime Minister Cenarius had just said that he had been helped by the guards to kill Augereau in the army and seize military power, but where did the extra guards come from? Barrow had seen with his own eyes, and all the guards in the palace had been mobilized to defend themselves. In other words, the Emperor also has a secret guard hidden in the shadows that others don't know.
Barrow can also understand this, as an emperor, there are always some backhands and trump cards, but even when the eldest prince attacked the palace, this hidden secret guard did not appear.
The Emperor is so confident that he can escape this catastrophe without relying on these secret guards?
Another doubt is the emperor's astonishing strength, he turned out to be an archmage! But in the operation of escaping from the palace, he acted like an ordinary old man, and he never made a move at all! You must know that in that operation, many palace guards died!
It can be said that the emperor watched these guards die.
The biggest doubt is Gletchev's deadly rebellion at the most critical juncture. It was he who assassinated the Grand Prince, causing the rebels' plans to rebel to fail, and finally falling into the trap of the circle in a desperate situation.
But why did he rebel? According to the conversation he had just had with the Emperor, Gletchev said that he himself had woken up at the last moment, and to put it bluntly, he had discovered his conscience and felt that he could not help the abuse. Barrow scoffed at this, and had no choice but to deceive the hairy kid for this reason.
Such a careerist, a conspirator, a conscience, repented? Barrow didn't believe it at all.
And generally such a rebel, two or five boys, normal people will be disdainful and unwilling to get close, but the emperor was extremely generous to Gletchev, and he even comforted Gletchev a few words. Such treatment is rare even for Prime Minister Cenarius.
Thinking about it, there is only one reason, that is, Gletchev was originally the emperor's person, and he was a secret chess piece that the emperor placed next to the emperor. Thinking in this way, many problems can be easily solved, and it is precisely because of this that the emperor will know the plan of the great prince well, and will be confident in dealing with this rebellion, and send the secret guard to Cenarius, instead of defending himself.
But Barrow had the same doubts in his heart as the rebel general: why go to such great trouble? If Gretchev is really a secret son who is lying in ambush beside the great prince. It would have been easy to assassinate him, so why cause such a big trouble?
If you want to be justified, you are afraid of causing criticism. With Gletchev's position, it is not easy to find out the evidence of the great prince's secret rebellion? When the time comes, the evidence will be revealed to the world, and the punishment will be justified, and it will be a unicorn family in the south, and there will be nothing to say.
Thinking of this, Barrow didn't dare to think about it anymore, the more he knew, the more he thought about it. But at this time, he hated that he knew so much, and Barrow knew that many times it was rare to be confused to save his life, and smart people who knew everything clearly would not survive to the end.
What's more, to accompany the emperor.
When the Emperor and Gletchev sang and harmonized just now, they were actually just looking for a reason to give a rhetoric to the outside world. At this time, Barrow was eager to cover his ears, listen to nothing, and look at nothing, and now he could only stand there honestly, pretending to be a clay statue, and rotting all his thoughts in his stomach.
Emperor Grievous snorted lightly, "Well killed, such a rebellion is worth dying." As a nobleman, as a soldier, he has completely forgotten the nobility and noble duty of his bloodline, and it is cheap for him to die in the barracks, if he is captured alive, this king will definitely let such a traitor not survive, and he can't die!"
The coldness in his words was like the cold wind in the cold winter, and the straight sect froze into his bones. Barrow on the side shivered with fright, he knew that after tonight, there would probably be a bloody storm in this Holy Radiance City, and all the nobles or officials who were involved with the Great Prince would not be able to get rid of it.
I don't know how many people in this Shenghui City will drop their heads, and how many families will be ruined.
After pondering for a moment, the emperor immediately issued an order: "Gletev, you quickly lead your troops to surround the harem, and no one is allowed to let go, especially the queen, you must keep a firm watch and not lose anything." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty. Gletchev's heart sank, and he took the order, and several people present knew in their hearts: Your Majesty, it's over. As for the fate that awaits her, whether she will be imprisoned in the cold palace until death, or will she be directly given death by the emperor? It depends on whether the emperor will take care of the love between the two of them for so many years.
"Prime Minister, you can directly draw up the decree for this king. ", the Emperor then commanded.
"Yes, Your Majesty. Cenarius spread out the pen and paper that had been prepared for a long time and began to write.
"The eldest prince, Lance Grievous, as a member of the royal family, is guilty of rebellion and conspiracy to commit treason, which is an unforgivable crime. Since he is dead, he will not be held accountable for other crimes, deprived of his royal status, and will not be buried in the imperial tomb after death. The Emperor hesitated for a moment and gave the first order.
"Lance has been operating in Shenghui City for many years, and he has been a network of henchmen, expanding his power, and colluding with the conspirators in the city in a vain attempt to turn the world upside down and cause trouble to the imperial power. Prime Minister Hibbert Cenarius is now ordered to take full charge of this matter, and the National Police Department, the City Guard, and the Ministry of the Interior all listen to the order, and all other departments will cooperate, and it is necessary to exterminate all the rats in these ditches in the city, and not a single one will be left!"
Barrow gasped, the power given by the Emperor to Prime Minister Cenarius is not insignificant, it can be said that the entire Shenghui City has been delivered to Cenarius, and the trust and expectations in it can be imagined.
"Queen Dominica Medici, the mother of a nation, joined forces with Lance Grievous to commit rebellion and even murder the king. As an example for women in the whole country, such a poisonous woman, how can she be dethroned, and she is now abolished as queen, imprisoned in the cold palace, without amnesty, and not allowed to leave the palace. ”
This order did not surprise everyone, everyone thought: After all, the emperor still relented and left the queen with a life, but for the queen, what is the difference between being abolished and imprisoned in the cold palace for life, and death?
