Chapter 190: The Rebellion of the Palace

Cryza XVI lay on his large and soft bed, watching Fernández stride in, his handsome face and tall posture made him seem to see himself in a trance.

The deafening cheers of the first time he ascended the throne, the ringing bells of the Great Hall, the shouts of slaughter roaring on the battlefield, and the sound of horses' hooves shaking the earth echoed in the ears of Kriza XVI like a whirlpool, and he was in a trance.

It wasn't until Fernández came to Kriza's window, and the heels of his stiff leather boots touched each other with a clear sound, that Kriza XVI came to his senses.

"Ah, my child, dear Fernández, you are coming......" Kriza XVI looked at Fernández with kindness and love in his eyes.

The man in front of him, he is not only tall, well-proportioned, handsome, heroic, but also he is excellent in personal cultivation, not only proficient in mathematics, astronomy, poetry, literature and navigation, but also good in writing and drawing, he is suave and polite, even the most demanding court etiquette master is recognized as the most elegant and perfect Fernandez's ceremonial movements, he is the favorite of the Creator, integrating appearance and connotation, and is the favorite of countless young girls in the empire.

What's even more rare is that this prince is also brave and good at fighting, and he made great achievements in the first expedition, personally led dozens of horses, stepped on the company camp, and broke the enemy army by tens of thousands!

Such an excellent and outstanding man is his own son, how can Kriza XVI not look at it in his eyes and love it in his heart?

However, although Kriza XVI loved his son deeply, this love did not blind his eyes, and his wise and sharp eyes could clearly see the flame that burned in Fernandez's eyes, which was called "ambition".

Fernandez and Cork are two very different people, Cork is a standard aristocratic politician, deep in the city, good at speaking, good at internal affairs, and able to endure what ordinary people can't endure, while Fernandez is more like a vigorous and aggressive young soldier.

It is precisely because of Kriza's previous connivance that Fernandez is now in his wings, and his mind can no longer contain the ambition that grows like a wild weed, so that even in the face of his father, Fernandez can not hide the ambition in his eyes like the flames of hell!

Kriza XVI stared deeply at his child, although he was ambitious to stare at his throne, but he was his own child after all, several times Kriza XVI wanted to grit his teeth and completely wipe out Fernandez, but he couldn't do it, so he dragged it out again and again, and now he is about to die, all this will eventually have a conclusion.

The kindness and compassion in the eyes of Kriza XVI gradually disappeared, and was replaced by a cold and unforgiving gaze.

Because he is not only the father of this child, but also the emperor of this empire!

In the forest, as an old lion king, if a young male lion wants to challenge his position, then even if it is his own child, the lion king will give a merciless blow, bite it to death, or drive it out of his territory.

Kriza XVI, he was first a man, and then a father.

For a man, he must not allow anyone to challenge his power, even if it is his dearest!

This is the natural instinct of any male animal in this world to survive in the world!

"My child, you seem to be in good spirits, has something happened lately that has made you so happy?" said Kriza XVI's voice, which sounded like a cold wind blowing from a cold hell, and at once it was on the vital point.

Although the old man in front of him seems to be choking at any time, Fernandez still unconsciously fought a cold war, because this old man is not only his father, but also a famous and world-famous king, his cultural and martial arts make Fernandez revered and admired since he was a child, his resourcefulness makes him worship since he was a child, his every move makes him deliberately imitate from the beginning of his sensibility, he is like a huge shadow, has been shrouded in Fernandez's head, making him dark and breathless!

But now, O gods, open your eyes and see, the greatest emperor in the world has so much difficulty even taking a breath!

He's almost done, and the world is going to be yours soon!

Fernandez seemed to have a devil shouting in his heart, and the long-term coercion made Fernandez subconsciously fear and panic, he heard this, bent down, unwilling to let his father see his weakness in an instant, but when he raised his head, the expression on his face regained indifference and calm, ambition triumphed over panic, and ruled his mind and body.

Kriza XVI looked at every slightest change in the child in front of him, his heart was very uncomfortable, and he even suspected that this young man with uncontrollable ambition burning in his eyes would pounce in the next second and strangle him alive with his young and powerful arms!

Kriza XVI easily resisted the urge to call for the guards to kill the young man in front of him, he closed his eyes, took a deep breath, controlled his killing intent, and then said slowly: "Are you so happy because you see that I am about to die?"

After Kriza XVI finished these extremely damning words, his eyes were like knives and he stared at Fernandez.

Fernandez's body trembled slightly, his eyes lowered weakly, he didn't dare to look directly at his father, he knew that at this time, as long as he dared to contradict him, Kriza would immediately shout for the guards to drag him down and put him to death!

There was no trace of ethics and love in the eyes of this old man at this time, only the ruthlessness of the emperor's family!

Fernandez said slowly: "No, my dear father, you will always be my spiritual totem and life idol, your wisdom and light are like the sun that I will never be able to reach, I am very sad to watch you grow old little by little!"

"Oh, do you really think so?" said Kriza XVI, retracting his gaze and smiling noncommittally.

Fernandez raised a hand and swore, "The Most High God can testify to my sincerity!"

Kriza XVI scoffed, "The Supreme God will not care about our mortal affairs!" But since you think so, then I have some questions for you. ”

Fernandez bowed slightly and said, "Please speak, father!"

Kriza XVI propped himself up, sat up a little, and then coughed violently before speaking.

When he coughed violently, Fernandez, who was standing not far away, watched quietly, without the slightest intention of stepping forward to help his father pat his back, and even if Kriza XVI coughed blood, he did not have any intention of calling his son to come forward to help.

The suspicion and taboo between this father and son have reached such a strange point, which is really chilling.

"What are you walking around Hannibal and other generals in such a hurry these days?" said Kriza lightly, every word like a spear and dagger, towards Fernandezza.

Of course, Fernández would not be stupid enough to hide from His Majesty the Emperor for these actions, he had already thought of his words: "Of course, for the celebration in two days, my Majesty! My dear brother is about to borrow the throne, as his younger brother, as a member of the Empire, of course I have the obligation to escort this unprecedented celebration!"

Kriza stared at his son with deep eyes, and it was hard for others to imagine how an old man as terminally ill as him could have such a sharp gaze.

After a long time, Kriza said slowly: "You really have a heart, but if you really have a good heart, then please answer me, what are the thirteen commercial ships that were anchored in Kuniske Harbor two days ago? Is it really food and wine?"

Fernandez's face was calm as usual, but the fingers hanging beside him unconsciously pinched hard, these thirteen commercial ships under the banner of the Crumber family were definitely not loaded with food and wine, loaded with five thousand well-equipped and well-trained soldiers and war horses, once there was a coup d'état in the imperial capital, these soldiers could immediately kill the imperial capital with murderous energy, a hundred miles away, the fierce horses galloped, and they arrived in the blink of an eye!

Without waiting for Fernández to reply, Kriza then asked like a cannon: "These days, what promises have the southern counties made to you in private? These days, the violence in the empire is still high, the empire's law and order is chaotic, and the prison in the south of the city is already overcrowded, what does these things have to do with you? Several generals of the imperial city defense army have been in frequent contact with you in private these days, what kind of conspiracy exist between you?"

These questions were like a sharp sword that forced Fernandez to step backwards, until he stood on the edge of a cliff, with no place to stand.

Fernandez's face turned blue and white for a while, he could think that His Majesty the Emperor would notice his movements, but he didn't expect that His Majesty the Emperor would actually notice all his movements clearly, but what annoyed him the most was why His Majesty the Emperor came to ask him so much at this time?

Fernández raised his head, like a wolf cornered, and stared at Kriza XVI: "What the hell do you want to say?

Kriza XVI looked at Fernández, and he sighed slowly: "What I want to say is, why don't you stop?"

"Stop?" said Fernandez, as if he had heard an extremely ridiculous joke, "How do you stop?"

"If you are willing to stop, I can give you the richest counties of this empire as your domain, as long as you are willing to stop all intrigue and military action before you. Kriza XVI looked at his son with a strong expectation in his eyes, and this was his last attempt to save the relationship between father and son, brotherhood.

Unfortunately, Fernandez did not appreciate it at all, but he felt an unforgettable insult, and he smiled: "Territory, my territory, my father, I have my own territory, but what do you want those who follow me to do? Divide my territory into small equal parts one after another, and then divide it among them? Ha, at that time, it will be much easier for my brother to come and clean me up! My father, this is really the smartest idea in your life!"

Fernández laughed for a while, and suddenly waved his arms, his face was hideous, and he said angrily: "Why did I stop? Why didn't he stop my **shameless brother!!Isn't he a disgrace to the Kriza family? Didn't you hate him for a long time? Why did you pass the throne to this incompetent guy!!"

Fernandez's roar echoed through the spacious dormitory, and the guards at the door heard the voice, and they looked at each other in horror, but they wanted to hide far away, not daring to participate in this royal battle.

Kriza XVI looked at his son with an extremely complicated gaze, and he said slowly but firmly: "Because he can bring stability to this country, and you bring turmoil to this country!"

"Why? Why do you say that?" Fernández was so excited that the bruises on his forehead burst out, and he roared loudly, "Didn't you also kill the throne from the sea of corpses and blood? After ten years of turmoil in the empire, what kind of land has you beaten this continent into? But you are still in a ruin, and you have re-established this empire! Is it possible that I can't do what you can do? Or do you simply look down on me and don't believe me?"

Chryza XVI shook his head slowly: "Fernandez, my child, you are my proudest and proudest child, your intelligence is not below me in the slightest, if the two of us change positions at the beginning, you will definitely do a better job than me......!" My child, you see, things are different now. When I first succeeded to the throne, the empire had a full treasury, a strong state, and a rich and unsettling people, so that this large and ancient empire could withstand ten years of turmoil. ”

"But look at the present, my child! You go to the Imperial treasury and there are more rats than gold coins, and you go to the homes of the commoners in private to listen, and they curse this country more than they praise it, and the civil strife in the Empire was only a struggle between the royal families, and although the battle was fierce, the entanglement of forces was clear and clear. But now, the Kelsmans, the Illuminati, the Crumbels, our Krizas, and the rest of the country, these forces are intertwined, and the situation is a hundred times more complicated than before, and the empire is a hundred times weaker than before. Kriza XVI said slowly, his voice deep and full of helplessness, "Under such circumstances, if there is civil strife in the empire, it will inevitably lead to total collapse!"

"Do you want to see this country crumble at your hands?" said Kriza XVI.

Although this kind of thing is reasonable, but Fernandez can already listen to it now, and it is already difficult to ride a tiger, not to mention, where can he still listen to half a minute now?

This man is proud and conceited, and he thinks more: no matter how difficult the situation is, I can overcome all this!

Fernandez sneered and asked, "My father, I don't think you would have imagined that the black-haired pirate would be able to get out of that gladiatorial arena alive, right?"

Kriza's brow tightened, and he looked at his son, without saying a word, his face becoming more and more gloomy.

Fernandez looked at his father with a provocative and rebellious gaze: "Why can't I do such an impossible thing for such a pirate? Or are you simply prevaricating, or simply look down on me?"

Kriza was silent, and after a long sigh, he waved his hand helplessly and tiredly to Fernandez: "You go, kid, I'm done with what needs to be said...... Since you're obsessed, there's nothing I can do ......."

Fernandez's face was ugly, he looked deeply at the old emperor, then bowed deeply, and then turned around and strode out, he knew that it was the old emperor's ultimatum just now, and he refused.

From the moment he walked out of this room, the family's affection would completely collapse, and all that was left was the sword!
