In the early morning of the second day when Bolton was ordered to return to the royal city, while the generals of the Guards were still eating breakfast, a thunderbolt of news suddenly came from the sky and the second prince, His Royal Highness Bolton, the commander of the Guards Legion, was sick and asked to resign from the Legion and go home to recuperate.

The request was approved by Pertheus on the same day, and a special person was sent to inform the whole army, which meant that Bolton officially withdrew from the front line, and it was not a transfer to the line, but a direct resignation from all posts and going home sick, which caught all the soldiers off guard.

In the post of chief general after Bolton stepped down, according to the transfer order, the military command of the Pro-Guard Corps would be taken over by Persius himself, and there was also a large-scale transfer of middle and high-level generals, and a large number of them were scattered and promoted to other corps, and the vacant positions were filled by the people designated by Pertheus.

Such a transfer meant that the nature of the Guards had changed, from the elite of the army led by Prince Bolton to the king's personal soldiers of Pertheus.

This was not the end of the story, as soon as the command of the Guards changed hands, Percius's second order came down.

In the royal decree, Pertheus transferred the cardinal garrison army originally stationed in the royal city to the northern province of Tayu on the grounds that "the country must not be without borders, and the border defense must not be without elites", and cooperated with the capital of Lengyan Valley to guard the frontier.

The garrison of the royal city was served by the Guards Corps, who had just finished the blood exchange.

On the surface, this movement seems reasonable, given that the northern border suffered a large-scale invasion by the remnants of the Six Kings last year, and the exchange of the garrison troops from the Personal Guard Corps to the more elite Cardinal Guard Corps is a move to further consolidate the border defense.

However, in the eyes of the discerning person, this transfer is extremely unusual, because for so many years, the Cardinal Guard has been stationed in the royal city, and has the closest relationship with the royal family, which is why every kingdom soldier wants to sneak in and serve here.

Fortunately, the Cardinal Garrison has been sent to the North, leaving the center of power entirely, and it should be noted that their duty is to "coordinate with the capital of the Cold Valley to guard the frontier", which means that the Provincial Governor Sting has control over the Cardinal Guard!

What kind of ordinary change of defense is this, it is to transfer the cardinal guard legion and throw it to the north to be monitored by the cold valley, and in the name of Boton's illness, let the guard legion accept the king's command and settle in the royal city, completing a major blood change of the forbidden army.

While the ministers were still trying to understand the political signals, another royal decree arrived like a thunderbolt.

Shortly after Pertheus took complete control of the forbidden army in the royal city through the adjustment of defenses, he held a formal meeting in the palace hall to demand the reopening of the investigation into the greedy Eucalyptus of Danyu City.

Last year, when Danyu City was first exposed, the whole territory was shocked, from the royal family to the common people, they all knew that there would definitely be greed for ink in a rich place like Danyu City, but no one thought that those dog officials could do things like burning granaries and reselling strategic reserve grain.

However, in the end, the thunder and rain were small, and the royal family only hastily cleaned up the then Danyu City Governor Gomai, the Inspector Lin Gengsen, and some local officials.

None of the ministers in the palace who were implicated in the matter dealt with it, and Solandale was slapped by Perseus until he vomited blood for impeaching the Eight Princes at the Imperial Council.

Many people thought that this matter was over, but they didn't expect that after Pertheus dealt with the two major external troubles of the Far Eastern Dynasty and the remnants of the Six Kings, he would directly turn over the old eucalyptus.

At the royal council last year, Pertheus reassured them by burning all the books in front of the princes.

The princes thought they would be able to sit back and relax without evidence, but in fact the contents of those books had already been memorized by Solandelle, and she had written them down in their entirety.

Although legally speaking, the ledger written by Solandermer does not have any legal effect, after all, no one knows whether what she wrote is true or false.

But in fact, it doesn't matter whether it's true or not, under the political system of Dogurand, the king has great power, and the royal power is greater than the law, as long as there is an excuse to give an explanation to the outside world, he can do it.

On the day of the resumption of the old eucalyptus investigation, the pro-guard legion controlled the suspects in the palace with a thunderous force, and the follow-up investigation only lasted less than half a month.

And the Chancellor of the Exchequer, who served as the main culprit in the case, was directly given to death, which is also the highest-ranking official that Perseus has dealt with since he took office.

In addition to the eight princes, many royal ministers were implicated, and after the fall of these people, some of the powers were taken over by Perseus himself, and some were taken over by newly promoted officials.

Very delicately, through the list of transfers, some commonalities were discovered.

Among the Guards Legion, the newly promoted middle and high-level generals are basically soldiers who returned from the frozen fortress last year.

And the ministers in the palace were either related to the soldiers of the frozen fortress or were the confidants that Pertheus had cultivated single-handedly.

Those with a keen sense of politics finally realized that Perseus had begun to purge the palace of the intricate factions and began to rebuild a new leadership team.

The people who were purged were basically people from the Bolton and Andre factions, and it is not difficult to see from the experience of the subsequent transfers that the people used were all people with close ties to Solandelle.

Last year, Solandale risked her life to bring the soldiers of the Frozen Fortress back to the interior, and these people and their relatives, regardless of their political leanings, must have been very grateful to her, and their promotion to important positions was undoubtedly an extremely powerful help for Solandale.

The seeds that were stumbled in the snow and ice finally bloomed proudly this spring.

Everyone finally understood that Perseus was paving the way for Solandel in advance.

Solandale is too young, only 15 years old this year, and has never cultivated her own power, and in terms of influence, she cannot compare with her two older brothers.

In order to make up for this Achilles heel for Solandale, Perseus had no choice but to take the initiative to use the royal power in his hands to weaken the power of the two princes, and tailor a group of capable generals for her to control in the future.

Whether Pertheus's move is to reconstruct the power between the three candidates and form a balanced competition, or whether he has already decided that Solandale is the crown prince in his mind and wants to push a queen out with all his might, this transfer is undoubtedly exciting news for Solandale and the supporters behind her.

However, for those who are frustrated, will they really do nothing and just sit back and wait?
