"You two betrayed me too!"

Seeing the person clearly, Alpha I rebuked in disbelief.

This time the matter was too big, and everyone else could make a move against him.

Unlike Venerable Phoenix, Venerable Fervio was the founder of the Alpha Kingdom, and there was a vassal relationship with Alpha I.

"Demons, everyone will be punished!"

Venerable Vervio said disdainfully.

Loyalty, that's just not enough chips for betrayal.

The friendship between monarchs and ministers has been smoothed out by the years in the past 300 years.

If Alpha I had been the founder of the country, they would have given this monarch enough face, but now he is not.

When Caesar IV decided to attack him, he naturally had to make thorough preparations.

In order to kill Alpha I, Caesar IV chose the conservatives to join forces, this time gathering eleven Sanctuary powerhouses to ambush, and also mobilized a large number of troops to cooperate.

"You rebellious ministers and thieves, no one ...... deceive my royal family"

Without waiting for Alpha I to finish speaking, Madeleine mockingly mended the knife and said, "Demon, you don't have to fantasize.

Field Marshal Hudson, did not appear here, guess where he was? ”

Years of imperial life have not been in vain, and by simply arranging an attack, Caesar IV can still control the market.

Alpha I has a special status, and the powerhouses in the royal family are all his descendants. I couldn't determine the position of these people, so I simply kept it a secret from them.

In order to ensure that nothing went wrong, Caesar IV also invited Hudson over, and at this time he was exchanging cultivation experiences with the powerful people in the royal family.

Getting the exact answer, Alpha I, who had suffered heavy injuries in many parts of his body and ran out of oil, had a bitter smile on his face.

The most ruthless imperial family!

Ruthless and resolute, it is essential for a good king.

Alpha I did it himself, and his juniors, who he looked down on, did the same at this time.

Caesar IV was decisive in killing, and he personally taught it. Sadly, the first time it was used: it was used on him.

If there were no previous changes, with the character of Caesar IV, no matter how unpleasant he looked, he would not have the idea of killing his ancestors.

"Give this manuscript to Caesar IV, maybe he will be able to use it!"

With that, he threw the manuscript to the Archduke Madeleine, with a hint of calmness in his eyes.

When a man is about to die, his words are good.

After planning so much, and finally falling into the current field, Alpha I closed his eyes unwillingly.

Everyone looked at each other, and then made the final stab on Alpha I's body.

The former generation of heroes is now left with no bones, and everyone can't help but show sad expressions.

"Your Highness, our business is done, Your Majesty, you can tell it on your side!"

Venerable Phoenix said in a deep voice.

It's not a glorious thing to make a move on your own feudal monarch. If it weren't for Alpha I's murder of the monarch and the seizure of the throne, which seriously undermined the rules of the political game, they would not have made a move.

If you are forced to make a move in desperation, there is no need to receive credit.

"Your Holiness, rest assured, I will tell the Imperial Brother truthfully!"

After receiving a reply from the Grand Duke of Madeleine, everyone chose to take their leave. Everyone tacitly suppressed their curiosity and did not mention the manuscript.

Madeleine, as the victor, opened the manuscript and looked at it, and was directly taken aback.

Inheriting the legacy of the Goddess of Calamity, looking at the entire continent of Aslanth, she is the most knowledgeable wave of people.

I still can't imagine that there is actually a "Emperor Dao Law" in the world, this kind of cultivation method that is almost open.

In an instant, she understood why Alpha I would jump out shamelessly and compete for power with future generations.

If she is Alpha I, she has such a shortcut in her hand, and she will not hesitate to pounce on it.

It's a pity that times are different!

The founding monarch of the country more than 300 years ago is already a legendary hero for everyone.

If he retreats from the world and cultivates and does not participate in worldly disputes, everyone still respects him.

Once you let go of the forced rules and participate in the secular power game, then it is better to die. The noble group, which is a vested interest, will not accept a legendary monarch.

In the absence of the participation of the royal powerhouses, Caesar IV was able to bring so many Sanctuary powerhouses to surround him, and the identity of the emperor was secondary, and it was more that Alpha I touched everyone's bottom line.

Regardless of success or failure, the Emperor's Law figured out by Alpha I is priceless for the monarch.

As long as the sovereign of a great country is not too poorly skilled, he can almost protect the Holy Land. Once this thing is lost, the continent that has just been stabilized will fall into chaos again in a short period of time.

There are too few strong people who can cultivate on their own and break through to the realm of the Holy Realm.

After the shortcut appears, the princes with a little strength will not be able to bear it.

Whether to give the things to Caesar IV or not, for a moment Madeleine became entangled. With all the resources heaped and the fortunes of the Alpha Empire, Caesar IV may be able to get a glimpse of the Sanctuary in his lifetime.

After taking this step, Shouyuan will grow substantially. Caesar IV survived, and her plans were all ruined.

Before this operation, Caesar IV had communicated with her alone, hoping that she would serve as an auxiliary minister to protect his nephew.

Rightfully grasping the power of the empire and using the resources of the empire to help herself go further, this is exactly what she has been pursuing.

After hesitating for a while, in the end, the interests prevailed over the thin emotions, and the manuscript in Madeleine's hand was directly reduced to ashes.

Deep down, she also kept comforting herself that once Caesar IV obtained the cultivation method of the Emperor's Law, the future empire would inevitably be in constant war and the people would be in dire straits.

……

"Venerables, let's communicate here today, and we will meet again next time we have the chance!"

Sensing the end of the war, Hudson immediately chose to leave.

There is no such thing as retention, and if you don't turn your face on the spot, you just have self-cultivation.

In the face of the villains blocking the door, no one will be in a good mood. If it weren't for a few Sacred Domain powerhouses in the royal family, who didn't want to get involved in the infighting, they would have to fight just now.

Of course, everyone was able to sit down and communicate calmly, mainly because Hudson's record was too impressive.

If there is a fight, there may be deaths. It is not easy to cultivate to the realm of the Holy Realm, and everyone will not easily put themselves in danger.

"Little Caesar is really ruthless, this method is about to catch up with his old man!"

Venerable Tyran couldn't help but complain.

Decisive killing has always been the hallmark of Caesar III. To be able to turn the tide in the midst of a crisis, killing is indispensable, and it must be legal killing!

Now what Caesar IV is doing is to emulate his father Caesar III, but the goal is different.

The evidence is not needed, and there is no second person in the empire who can get Hudson to come over and block the door except the emperor.

"The main thing is that it's too hard. The life of being tossed is about to be gone, and no matter how good-tempered people are, they will explode.

The killing of evil spirits is only the beginning of an era.

In the following days, it is indispensable to continue to toss. It's all the world of young people, so there is no need for us old bones to mix! ”

Robert briefly expounded the facts, and the unfortunate thoughts of Caesar IV disappeared without a trace.

Caring about the same junior who is about to die is not in line with their identity and bearing. As for the matter of Alpha I, now that the wood is in the boat, it is useless to say anything.

simply make mistakes and blame the black cauldron on the demons, and have an explanation for all parties.

After this episode, not only did the relationship between the conservatives and the royal family ease, but the dispute between the military and conservatives also came to an end temporarily, and the shadow hanging over the imperial city was finally dissipated.

From the perspective of the Empire, the death of Alpha I is of great strategic importance, easing the contradictions between the major forces within the Empire.

The only big loser is the royal family!

In terms of high-end power, a second-order powerhouse of the Sacred Domain was damaged, and politically it fell into a decline with no successor.

Caesar IV was fine when he was alive, but once the new emperor ascended the throne, it was inevitable that the imperial power would fall.

The auxiliary ministers exercised the imperial power on their behalf, but after all, they were not as good as the emperor himself holding power. If you want your son to become successful, you must rely on the art of power balance.

After the events of Alpha I, Caesar IV had realized that no one in the royal family could be relied upon, and now no one dared to fully believe it.

……

The Great Hall.

After listening to the description of the Grand Duke of Madeleine, everyone smiled with joy. The empire's greatest cancer has finally been eradicated.

Then it's time to sit in a row and divide the fruits.

Although Alpha I left no profit, he still had a bunch of unlucky followers. caught up with the murder of the king, and it was impossible to get out of the way.

"Your Majesty, this is the list of cult members we have collected, and we only need the last step to approve before we can arrest them.

Please take a look! ”

Prime Minister Beckett took advantage of the situation and buttoned his hat.

These unlucky bastards have no backstage in the court. It does not belong to the camp of the emperor, nor to the camp of the conservative aristocracy, let alone the camp of the military aristocracy.

From the moment Alpha I was identified as a demon impersonator, his followers were automatically classified as cults.

"You can do it!"

Caesar IV said weakly.

After the curse was removed that day, his life was saved, but his body collapsed.

Holding on to a strong breath, after the layout got rid of Alpha I, the hanging heart was relaxed, and the thoughts of Caesar IV were gone.

The only thing he wants to do now is to put his son in the position as soon as possible. The rest of the side matters, Caesar IV could no longer take care of.

"Your Majesty, pay attention to your body, the court can't do without you!"

Prime Minister Beckett reminded tactfully.

In order to get rid of Alpha I, they had a secret agreement, and now it was time to fulfill that promise.

"Don't worry, I won't be able to die for a while.

It's just that the court is busy with government affairs, and with my current state, I am not suitable for presiding over the government.

For the sake of the normal operation of the empire, I have decided to appoint five auxiliary ministers to handle the affairs of the DPRK and China in my place! ”

As soon as Caesar IV finished speaking, Prime Minister Beckett's face darkened on the spot.

According to the tradition of the Al Person, there is only one auxiliary minister, and I never expected that Caesar IV would be so unmartial and actually make five at once.

The five-member group handles the government together, and the power subdivided is not as great as the power of him, the prime minister.

Just as he was about to open his mouth to object, he swallowed back the words to his lips. As the prime minister and then the auxiliary minister who tried to plot a single minister, the ambition of the autocracy was suddenly laid out on the surface.

In political struggle, many things can only be done quietly, but they must never come out of their own mouths.

Caesar IV's life was short, and the more times like these, the more careful and vigilant we must be.

Too much exposure of ambition, he thinks it will threaten his son's rule, and before he dies, he pulls a cushion on his back, which is a high probability event.

"Archduke Hudson, Archduke Ephiero, Archduke of Newfoundland, Duke Beckett, Archduke of Madeleine, all of them were highly respected.

I hope that the five of you will be able to handle the government affairs on my behalf while I am recuperating. In the unfortunate event that I die of illness, I will ask the five assistant princes to ascend to the throne...... Ahem......"

Before he finished speaking, there was a coughing sound. The queen on the side hurriedly reached out and patted Caesar IV on the back.

Seeing this, Hudson frowned. Caesar IV's health was even worse than expected.

"Your Majesty, and recuperate with peace of mind, the affairs of the court are taken care of by your own ministers.

In charge of the country, the queen should not be absent from the involvement. If I can't go out of retreat all year round, I won't occupy the position of auxiliary minister. ”

Hudson's words came directly to a two-level reversal.

In the previous sentence, everyone thought that this marshal wanted to dominate the dynasty alone; The latter sentence let everyone's hanging hearts go.

The current Hudson is not alone, and there is a huge camp of military nobles behind him. Once in the court, this loose group, spread from the center to the localities, quickly transformed into the largest political faction in the empire.

"Excuse me the marshal penance, it's not mine. Anyway, my body is seriously deficient, I'm afraid I don't have much time, and the little prince still has to ask the marshal to take care of it.

Queen, the matter of the court is fortunate to you. If someone is tyrannical and threatens the safety of the imperial power, you can ask the marshal for help! ”

In order to pave the way for his son, Caesar IV also fought. This performance clearly framed Hudson, and gave him no room to refuse.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured!

Above the court, they are all virtuous ministers and officials, and they will definitely assist the little prince.

If someone usurps the throne and rebels, my sword is still sharp enough to cut off the rebellious ministers and thieves! ”

Hudson said immediately.

Although there were some twists and turns in between, on the whole, the two generations of monarchs, from Caesar III to Caesar IV, treated him well.

It was his duty as a vassal to ensure the normal replacement of imperial power. If someone really wants to ride on the new emperor's head and, he is also slapping him in the face.

usurpation and rebellion, not to mention, everyone will be punished.

The lyrical session ends, followed by a naked political struggle. Even if everyone took pity on what happened to Caesar IV, they would not be relentless when it was time to act.

"Your Majesty, the position of an auxiliary minister is very important, and you must be cautious.

Previously, the Archduke of Ephiero and the Archduke of Newfoundland had a close relationship with the demons, and his son also followed the demons to practice, so it was not appropriate to entrust him with important tasks until the suspicion was eliminated!

Although the Grand Duke of Madeleine was of noble birth, she was a woman after all, and lacked experience in handling government affairs.

Boldly conferring a high position, I am afraid of provoking criticism! ”

The Minister of Agriculture, Marquis Tariq, was the first to strike.

The emergence of the five auxiliary ministers has greatly weakened the discourse power of the conservative camp. Even if the six ministers could tolerate it, the younger brother below would not agree.

Hudson himself retreated, not to mention, but also launched the queen's governance, which is a mainland tradition, and it must not be sprayed.

The prime minister is his own person and does not need to be tossed.

The remaining three are the thorns in their side. As soon as this shot was made, it hit the core point.

Everyone present knew that Alpha I was not an evil spirit. It is not surprising that the Archduke of Ephiero and the Archduke of Newfoundland, who are descendants of the younger generations, are moving closer to their ancestors.

In addition to them, many of the children of the royal family had dealings with Alpha I. Including several Sacred Domain powerhouses in the royal family, they have all received the guidance of Alpha I.

But politically, Alpha I was labeled as a demon, and he was charged with the felony of killing the king and assassinating important ministers, and they also passively became suspects.

The conservative camp clung to this, and Caesar IV could not appoint two people to important positions, otherwise he would not be able to quell the criticism of the government and the opposition.

In contrast, the question of Grandduke Madeleine's qualifications and experience is relatively easy to solve.

If it is lacking, then find a way to make up for it.

Caesar IV is not dead yet, and now the appointment of her as an auxiliary minister cannot be passed, and when the edict is issued before his death, there is a high probability that it can be passed.

However, in this way, Caesar IV's counterbalance will not work.

Without the participation of the two respected dukes in the royal family, it is obviously beyond the power of the queen and the grand duke of Madeleine to compete with a group of old foxes politically.

The eyes of asking for help glanced around the court, but no one opened their mouths to refute.

Including the parties, they did not dare to jump out of the confrontation at this time. No one knows how much evidence the conservative camp has in their hands, and this kind of big case, as long as it is slightly implicated, it can kill people.

"I'm tired, let's get here today!"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Caesar IV decisively chose to terminate the meeting.

Even if he knew in advance that it would not go well, the strength of the conservative camp still made him at a loss.

Hudson, one of the five auxiliary ministers, picked on his son, which was not surprising to him. I finally jumped out of the storm whirlpool, and I definitely won't jump in again.

The other four were rejected by three at once, but it was much more than expected. Thinking that it was his own royal sister who was vetoed, Caesar IV was ready to compromise.

Unexpectedly, the most promising Archduke of Efiero and the Archduke of Newfoundland were the first to go out. For a while, Caesar IV wanted to change people, and Caesar IV didn't know who to push to the throne.

The conservative camp must not be arranged, and the spiritual leaders of the military aristocracy and the emerging aristocratic camp are all Hudson.

If you look down, no one is convinced. No matter who is supported to take the position, they will not be able to integrate the camp behind them and compete with the conservative camp in the court.

The other political factions in the country are too weak. Expecting them to come out to counterbalance the conservative camp is completely inoperable.
