Alyssa knows Lin Qiu.

So she knew that as long as she told Lin Qiu the truth of what happened nine years ago, the entire imperial capital would be in trouble the next day, but she also knew that even if she didn't say it, there would be a series of "insiders" who came out of nowhere and accidentally told Lin Qiu the news he wanted to know.

Lin Qiu always had a way to find out what he wanted to know.

In order to prevent someone from deliberately distorting the truth of the incident nine years ago, Alyssa felt that it was better to tell Lin Qiu by herself. After all, as a person who has personally experienced the events of that year, her objective notarization may be second only to Captain Dragonfly.

To summarize the whole incident briefly and implicitly, it is probably that the plebeian class at that time was instigated to rise up overnight, occupying all areas of the imperial capital and the Church, and the spearhead was directly aimed at the regime of Henry V. The fundamental reason for their success was that the vast majority of the soldiers in the army at that time were also dissatisfied with Henry V's policy of placing them, and participated in the coup d'état, becoming accomplices of the civilian class.

When the church received the news of the royal family's request for help, it was late at night, and the city was full of riots and fires. Henry V immediately sent a letter to the Senate asking for help, hoping that the Church would send troops to keep them safe before the Senate troops arrived. At that time, the only army stationed near the church was Melia, and the two of them were knights of the church before they set out.

Before fully understanding the situation, she and Melia were tasked with guarding the palace and trying to avoid clashes with civilians and the army.

In terms of numbers, the royal family was at an absolute disadvantage, and the bishop, on the one hand, feared that the situation would worsen, and on the other hand, suspected that the uprising was not accidental, but was planned. The Church received information that there had been a simultaneous rebellion in four different districts, and that the rebels had quickly taken over the main transportation routes in each district, sealing off all areas.

Another reason why the imperial capital got out of control overnight was also the policy of Henry V's wars.

The nobles had far enough knights to fill the void on the frontal battlefield, and they needed more men to fend off the Iron Cavalry of the Byron Empire. In the midst of many opposition, Henry V resolutely introduced a series of policies, including the fact that any gifted child is eligible to enter the knight's academy, and for those from poor families, the royal family will also waive all tuition fees, and the only requirement is that they must be conscripted into the army after graduation.

This policy largely compensated for the lack of front-line soldiers, and it took four years to train a knight capable of fighting, and in the nearly 20 years since the policy was implemented, the composition of the army has gradually changed from nobles to commoners. In addition to important positions such as Master Chief and Commander, the vast majority of soldiers come from the civilian class.

It was the end of the war when Alyssa was admitted to the Furnace Academy, and Henry V did not expect the war to end so quickly that a series of wartime policies that had been used to inspire him could not be realized.

One of the most important is that the soldiers returning from victory can stay in the imperial capital and receive knighthoods, and this unattainable edict is the main irreconcilable contradiction between the two sides.

Cold and famine were the last straw that crushed civilians, destroying what little patience they had left.

"It was the last war I ever had. Alyssa recalled.

It's just that the enemy on the battlefield has changed from the iron cavalry of the Byron Empire to the teammates who fought side by side in the past. Within a short distance from the church to the palace, more than ten of her troops left and joined the rebels. On the battlefield, only two are unshakable.

Position, and Beliefs.

The defense of the palace can only be described as a meat grinder, after a night of fierce fighting, the corpses blocked the mountain road leading to the royal family, and the walls in front of the palace were stained red with blood.

"You don't want to know what it was like. Alyssa said.

It was not only the rebels who died, but also many middle and low-class nobles living in the four major cities, and after the rebels occupied the area, in order to coerce Henry V to sign a treaty, they took all the nobles as hostages and brought them to the palace. After losing the siege, the rebels became angry and agitated, and executed all the hostages at dawn in front of the palace defenders.

Even in this case, the order received by Alyssa and the others was still to "protect the royal family and not to leave the city".

The bishop preferred that the Senate would have intervened to settle the matter, and as we all know, the Senate's approach to insurrection was a complete eradication.

The Church does not want to wade into these troubled waters, and does not want its painstaking image to collapse because of the inhumane massacre.

"Melia did the work of the 'wicked' in place of the Senate?" Lin Qiu guessed.

"To protect Princess Sophia. ”

Alyssa didn't know much about what happened next. All she knew was that Princess Sophia, after witnessing the execution of the hostages in front of the royal city, sneaked out of King Henry's secret and tried to negotiate with the leader of the rebel army. After learning the news, the bishop reluctantly ordered Melia to secretly go out of the city alone and bring Princess Sophia back.

And then it wasn't just Alyssa, but the rest of the church was also informed.

In the process of rescuing Sofia, Melia slaughtered nearly half of the rebels in the city, and later death statistics showed that not only soldiers but also the elderly, women, and children were killed. Apparently she had gone beyond the limits of a Church knight, but more importantly, she had violated one of the most important treaties that the Church had to banish her.

Templars are not allowed to go into battle.

This is an iron law set by St. Gosya herself.

As a popular candidate for the Knights of the Round Table, Melia had reached the threshold of the Templars before Alyssa, but the timing of her display was so special that the Church had to expel her.

Later, the rebel leader was identified as a commoner named Canor, who had been a wealthy merchant who had exhausted all his assets by helping the poor, and even many soldiers had benefited from him to a greater or lesser extent, which gave him a high status in the civilian class. ”

Carnor did not come to a happy end, and like the rest of the rebels, he died easily at the hands of Melia.

"Wait a minute, the orphan of sinners who rebelled against the royal family, should it refer to ......?" Lin Qiu was stunned.

"It is true that some say that Canor once adopted a girl, that she was missing after Canor's death, and that she died at the hands of Melia, as did Canor. ”

"Melia thinks that person is Ella?"

"I don't know...... But if Melia is so sure, there shouldn't be anything wrong with that. Melia's best skills on the battlefield are tracking and assassination. ”

That is to say...... Ella is in trouble. ”
