If Vitry didn't find any trace of Ferdinand, Ferdinand could stay on the outskirts of the city for a while, and it would not be too late for him to enter the imperial capital when Situ Jin's good news came from the imperial capital!

But now, Vitri has discovered Ferdinand's whereabouts, and it is good to say that in a short time, after a long time, Vitry will definitely order several surrounding cities to conduct a large-scale search and encirclement of Ferdinand, and then Ferdinand will be embattled!

Now there is only one way in front of us, that is, to give it a go, no matter whether Robert is dead or not, the advanced imperial capital will be said, it is best to control the imperial capital before other cities have reacted, although from the current point of view, this is a difficult thing to do, but only by doing so can we grasp a trace of initiative.

Ferdinand walked out of the grove with the reins of his horse in both hands, glanced at the imperial capital, and said to Lear, who was following him: "I know that we want to enter the imperial capital, but how can we enter with only a few dozen people now? Let's wait a little longer!"

"Still waiting?" Lear looked at Ferdinand with a puzzled expression: "Your Highness, you can't wait any longer!

After Lear finished speaking, he saw that Ferdinand didn't speak, but just looked inside the imperial capital, and he didn't know what he was looking at, he said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, although there are few of us, all of my men are the best knights on the mainland!

So far, Ferdinand was also anxious, but when he thought that Situ Jin had told him before that he must wait for the signal released from the imperial capital before breaking in, he still didn't let go.

Seeing this, Lear said in a hurry: "Your Highness, what are you waiting for?

......

At the same time, inside the imperial capital.

Vitry, dressed in armor, stood majestically on the city, and in front of him stood the officers of the city defense army who were in charge of the four gates of the imperial capital, east, west, north and south.

After learning that Ferdinand had fled from Billez, Vitri immediately ordered the gates of the imperial capital to be blocked, and without his permission, not a single bird could be allowed to enter the imperial capital!

I have to say that this Vitri is really a talent! From the beginning of his career to the present, he has reacted quickly and arranged properly, and it can almost be said that he has not left any loopholes for Ferdinand to exploit!

Now, the reason why Vitryy called these four of his men was because the two thousand city guards he had sent to the outskirts of the imperial capital to capture the second prince Ferdinand in the morning had not yet returned, which made him very keenly aware that something was wrong!

"You four listen to me!" Vitri said in a calm voice: "When I go back, I will guard the gate you are responsible for, if any gate makes a mistake for me at that time, don't blame me for not thinking about my colleagues!"

Vitry's words fell, and the four city defense officers standing in front of him all nodded solemnly.

At this time, an officer with a thin figure and a small mole on his chin spoke: "Sir, the two thousand people we sent out have not returned yet, don't we have to go out of the city to have a look?"

Vitri shook his head: "Don't worry about them! The most important thing for us now is to hold the imperial capital, as long as the second prince can't enter the imperial capital, even if he tosses around outside, it will be in vain in the end! Just now I have sent people to notify the city divisions of several surrounding cities, so that they will immediately send troops to carefully search for the whereabouts of the second prince around their jurisdiction, and once they find the second prince, they will be arrested and sent to the imperial capital!"

Vitry's words fell, only to hear a sudden loud noise from the direction of the imperial capital, and several people present subconsciously turned their heads, only to see that the sky above the palace was a sea of fire, illuminating the entire imperial capital in a fiery red.

Vitry was shocked, and at this moment, the officer with a small mole on his chin who was standing in front of Vitry suddenly raised his foot and stepped forward, and before Vitry could turn around, he took out a dagger and stabbed Vitry in the chest!

"Poof—"

With the muffled sound of a sharp weapon piercing into the flesh, Vitry's whole body stiffened, he turned around, and just saw who was attacking him, but he didn't expect the officer to suddenly pull out the dagger and stab him in the chest again!

Vitriden gasped, his big eyes still wide open, as if he were still alive.

All this happened very quickly, and it is no exaggeration to describe it as lightning fast, and the three officers and other sentries standing guard around were still stunned, and the officer who had assassinated Vitry had already pulled out the dagger from Vitry's chest, turned and ran, and as he ran, he shouted to the city guards: "Chief Vitry is dead!

Hearing the man's words, the city guards standing in the city suddenly became in an uproar.

And it wasn't until the man ran far away that the officers who had just stood with Vitry realized what had just happened, glanced at Vitry, who was already dead and could no longer die, several officers looked at each other, and then pointed at the fleeing officer and shouted: "He killed Sir Vitry, catch him!"

While speaking, several people raised their feet and chased all the way in the direction where the man had fled, only to see the man run to the corner of the street, suddenly took out a signal flare from his body, opened the plug, released a red bullet into the sky, and then turned into the alley next to him.

When a cadre of city defense troops caught up, they saw that the alley was empty, and there was not even a single figure.

......

At the same time, outside the imperial capital.

Ferdinand, who saw the flare, looked uplifted, and said to Lear beside him: "Lear, we can enter the imperial capital now!"

Lear looked in the direction of the imperial capital, and then at the second prince, feeling more and more suspicious in his heart!

When he first met Ferdinand before, he had taken the initiative to ask Ying to get rid of His Majesty Robert, but he didn't expect Ferdinand to tell him that he didn't have to worry about this matter, and someone would handle it! Lear really couldn't imagine who in the empire had the ability to break through the heavy guards in the palace and the magicians around Robert who were close to him to protect him, and get rid of Robert!

Now it seems that the other party is not only responsible for getting rid of Robert, I am afraid that the other party has also made a lot of arrangements within the imperial capital!

Ferdinand took the lead and galloped in the direction of the imperial capital, and behind him, Lear and more than twenty other knights followed closely.

After a while, the group came to the main gate of the imperial capital, Lear glanced at the city, saw that the city was in chaos, he was happy, and said to Ferdinand: "Your Highness, it seems that something is going on in the imperial capital, taking advantage of their chaos, I will now take a few people to rush up and open the city gate from the inside!"
