Chapter 81: The Man Behind the Scenes

"You, it's you, you did it!"

The third prince saw the elegant man in front of him calmly walking into the council hall step by step, followed by a team of guards, and shouted angrily. You must know that his own men and horses suffered casualties when they broke through the palace, and he thought that as long as he successfully obtained the right to inherit the throne, he would have no scruples, so he gambled all his net worth in this battle.

And now, the plan is all ruined!

The sound of death in the palace sounded again and again, and without anyone else to deliver the news, the third prince knew that his people could no longer withstand it, he drew his sword, no longer cared about everything, and cut it like that.

"It's me, long time no see, third brother. ”

"Really, long time no see, big brother!" said the third prince through gritted teeth, and the sword he waved in his hand was also blocked by one of the guards beside the elegant man.

The ministers were speechless in surprise when they saw the deceased eldest prince, and only a few ministers looked coldly at everything that was happening in front of them, as if they had long expected this kind of plot to play out.

The eldest prince shook his head lightly, he had always disliked his rude younger brother, and at this moment, seeing his angry eyes that wanted to kill him and his hair, which had become a little messy from excitement, he couldn't help laughing, and in the eyes of the third prince, it was undoubtedly the biggest ridicule of himself.

"Dear brother, shouldn't you be happy to see that my brother is still alive? Being so excited and reckless is not the behavior of a true nobleman, it seems that your etiquette teacher should teach you etiquette again, is this the attitude you have when you treat your own royal brother?"

The eldest prince looked at the blood-stained palace with disgust, he was a person with a habit of cleanliness, and he couldn't wait for the third prince to make the palace so unbearable, he couldn't wait to let the third prince kneel on the ground and brush the dirty blood on the ground at this moment.

The guards around the eldest prince quickly took down the third prince and rescued the ministers, and when the eldest prince's people carried the old king out, the old king finally saw the person who rescued him, not the sixth prince, but the eldest who watched the burial with his own eyes.

"Father, you are frightened. ”

The eldest prince came to the old king's side, leaned over and wiped the corners of the old king's mouth with his handkerchief, and then threw the handkerchief to the people around him. Then, he knelt on one knee and looked calmly at his father, a man who had sat firmly on the throne for more than thirty years, he had been brilliant, powerful, and had made himself admire, but now he had lost control of the kingdom, and the so-called king was just an ordinary dying man, nothing more.

In this struggle for royal power, a winner has been born.

"Take the throne if you want. ”

The old king sighed deeply, as if he was too tired, and closed his eyes, only the sound of heavy breathing and the heaving chest meant that he was still alive.

"Thank you Father Chengquan, you and I are tired, I will let you go back to rest. ”

The eldest prince smiled and watched the old king leave.

This fake death, lurking in the shadows, was planned by him and the Grand Duke, including the killing of the third prince, so that he relaxed his vigilance, thinking that he had everything under his control.

Of course, the old king's recall of Allen made him think that he still had to watch a few good shows, and it would take a long time for the third to get such a good opportunity for himself. After all, it is also a pleasure to secretly watch the sixth child fight with the third child with the help of his father. It's a pity that no one could have imagined that the third child made such a stupid move and easily got the coveted throne.

And the third prince, who was kneeling on the ground, had given up thinking and quietly waited for his final ending.

Suddenly, the old king's voice sounded.

"Boss, where has Eren gone?" asked the old king, struggling to his feet. "Don't hurt him, I will order him to go far away, let him go back to his fiefdom, never set foot in the royal city, let him go, he is your youngest brother!"

The eldest prince was stunned for a moment, and said softly: "We three brothers, in the end, you still only think of him." That's fine, that's fine. ”

"Promise me, this is what I owe her, I owe her...... Promise me! Don't hurt Alan!" the old king shouted excitedly, and the soldiers beside him hurriedly held the king to prevent him from falling out of his chair.

"Well, as you wish, my father. When I get what I deserve, my dear brother will return to his territory, after all, I don't want to kill them all. ”

When Alan returned to the palace with the searched people, everything was already over, and what was waiting for him was naturally the summons of the new king, Alan understood that his strength was still too weak, even if his father tried to protect himself, he still couldn't fight his eldest brother, so he obediently handed over the things that his father gave him to the new king under his father's order, and when his father urged him to get out and leave as soon as possible, he refused.

Alan knew that this must be the last time he stayed by his father's side, and leaving, that is, goodbye, when the two of them took off the identity of king and prince, it was just the last send-off of the son to his father. The new king seems to be extremely tolerant of Allen, after all, he is now in power, and if he is too harsh on Allen at this time, it will cause the people to resent him.

As for the former three princes, the new king was to be hanged according to the law.

On the day of the public execution, the whole city gathered outside the royal city, because the new king ordered that everyone should be present to watch, in order to warn others of the fate of the rebellion, and the three princes were the head, including those who openly supported the three princes' accession to the throne, and those who were in harmony with the three princes on the day of the palace, a total of forty-three people, all of whom were hanged.

The sky was drizzling, on the high platform, the third prince was unwilling to look at the palace that symbolized power, as well as the winners and losers under the power struggle, just an order, the support on the soles of the feet was removed, and the last image left in the mind of the third prince was the moment when he was embraced by his father and mother when he was young, and he remembered that his father also loved him......

The rain became heavier and heavier, and the civilians left one after another after the execution, and the new king also left surrounded by everyone, only Alan stood on the city wall, watching his third brother's last journey.

"I failed, the third brother died, my father was also critically ill, Yir, the third brother said that his cavalry did not find you in the end, and the eldest brother's people did not see you, I have sent people to look for you for a long time, where did you go?" Alan muttered in the rain.
