Chapter 159: The Last Stand

"Hmph, what are you panicking! It's all gone now, and it's useless to panic. www.biquge.info The queen stood up gently, and under her calm makeup, a pair of phoenix eyes flashed with madness: "Since they want our lives wholeheartedly, then we can only have a fish to die and break the net!"

"Andrews, you immediately gather the palace guards to block the palace, and take down all the Raymond and others who entered the palace! As long as they are controlled in the palace, and there are four major legions outside to suppress the situation, see what they can do to stop me from seizing the throne!" The queen's order made Andrews a little dumbfounded.

This is not an ordinary thing, at this time, the palace is blocked to arrest Raymond and others, there are not only Raymond, Duke Solo and other imperial parties, but also the prince of the Holy Griffin Empire and the cardinal archbishop of the Church of Light, Andrews can't imagine that he will be crazy enough to round up the princes and bishops of the two empires.

However, Andrews is also a sensible person, he knows that he has gotten on the queen's thief ship and can't get off, even if he turns against the water now, Raymond and the others may not forgive him for what he did before. Thinking of this, Andrews gritted his teeth, nodded and went to gather his cronies and subordinates.

The queen arranged for her chamberlains to go to the stations of the four legions, and mobilized the four legions to enter the imperial capital with her own warrants and tokens, tightly sealed all the gates of the imperial capital, and suppressed the Knights of Light who guarded the arbitrators.

Along the way, Prince Grantham always looked at Leo with a meaningful look, and the way he wanted to speak several times made Leo feel a little creepy, and he secretly wondered if His Royal Highness the Prince had a habit of breaking sleeves. Taking advantage of a corner, Leo took the opportunity to distance himself from Prince Grantham and walked to the back of the line, far away from the eccentric prince, which was a little reassuring.

As soon as the group came to the stone steps outside the emperor's dormitory, they saw a palace guard gushing out from both sides of the dormitory, surrounding them.

Crown Prince Raymond stepped forward and shouted to the palace guards: "I am Raymond, the Crown Prince of the Varu Empire, what are you doing here?

"On the orders of Her Royal Highness the Queen, arrest Crown Prince Raymond who colluded with foreign thieves and wanted to rebel and kill his father!" Andrews walked out of the palace guards.

"Bastard, Andrews, it's you!" Seeing the appearance of Andrews, the queen's confidant, Raymond didn't understand that this was clearly the queen's trick, and wanted to take down himself first, but Raymond didn't understand how the queen dared to make a move against Prince Grantham and Cardinal Owen?

This is still Raymond is too young to know that once a woman goes crazy, she will not scruple so much. At this moment, Andrews also followed the queen to fight to the death, and he didn't talk nonsense with Raymond and the others at the moment, and ordered the palace guards to come forward and besiege as soon as he waved.

Raymond and the others naturally did not sit idly by, and immediately fought with the palace guards. Due to entering the palace and handing over everyone's personal weapons, most of them were bare-handed at this time, only a few high-ranking imperial officials such as Duke Solo and Patriarch Nathaniel carried their own swords, and the others could only desperately snatch the weapons of the palace guards.

Fortunately, none of these people are mediocre, Duke Solo and Patriarch Nathaniel were also born in the army back then, although they are old and frail, they are not something that a few palace guards can easily take, not to mention Prince Grantham and Cardinal Owen, one is as motionless as a mountain in front, and no matter how much the palace guards attack, they can't break through the defense of a knight's sword, and the other is performing the magic of light in the back, "Power Blessing" and "Divine Armor" and so on, so that everyone can give full play to their best state.

Leo and Cahill defended Raymond on the left and right, Cahill allowed the sword because of his status as a guard, and Leo also grabbed a palace guard's sword with Cahill's help, which can be regarded as self-preservation. It's a pity that Feng Xifan and Ney are not allowed to follow Leo into the palace because of their identities, otherwise Leo wouldn't have to be so embarrassed.

Although everyone is in a brave state, and the palace guards will not be able to take them for a while, but the palace guards are numerous, and under the command of Andrews, a steady stream of teams are coming, and the pressure on everyone is also increasing.

At that moment, a powerful beam of light shot out of the crowd and pierced into the sky.

"Hold on, everyone, I've sent a signal that the Knights of Light will be coming to their aid soon. Cardinal Owen's voice rang out, lifting everyone's spirits.

Andrews, who was among the layers of palace guards, saw the beam of light that went straight to the sky, and then heard Cardinal Owen say this, he secretly said something bad in his heart, and hurriedly ordered the palace guards to step up the attack, and he ran towards the palace wall, and he must block the Knights of Light from the palace before taking Raymond and others.

At this time, the people of the entire Valudi capital saw the beam of light that went straight to the sky, and when the ordinary people were watching the excitement, those nobles knew that this was a signal for help from the Church of Light, and now there was only Cardinal Owen in the Valu Imperial Capital, a clergyman of the Church of Light, and he could be forced to cast a call for help, and what civil strife happened in the palace?

Seeing this signal, the Knights of Light acted quickly, and did not care that in the bustling Valu Imperial Capital, one by one the Knights of Light rode their horses and galloped towards the direction of the Valu Palace. Outside the city, after receiving the queen's warrant and seeing the emperor's imperial seal on it, the four major legions immediately began to enter the imperial capital to block the city gate, and at the same time rushed towards the station and palace where the Knights of Light were located.

At this time, Feng Xifan and Ney also saw the abnormality in the palace, Ney was familiar with the situation in the imperial capital, shouted that it was not good, and hurriedly summoned the Wei soldiers who followed Li Ao into the imperial capital, and ordered them to go to the palace immediately with him to rescue Li Ao. And Feng Xifan relied on his outstanding light skills and rushed towards the palace one step earlier.

For a time, there was a great chaos in the imperial capital of Waru, first the palace city was closed, then the Knights of Light swaggered through the city, and a team of hoplites rushed to the palace by the Wei military guards, followed by the four major legions of the empire entered the imperial capital, and after blocking the city gate, they also surrounded the palace.

Many nobles from various countries who have participated in the arbitration process in the council hall know that this must be a new twist and turn in the battle for imperial power in the Varu Empire, otherwise even the four major legions would not have been dispatched.

The agent of Archduke William and the magician of the Kingdom of Lorraine hurriedly spread the news of the rebellion of the Hou Party through magic transmission. (To be continued.) )
