Chapter 531: The Scream

Garcia clutched the hilt of the sword in his hand one by one, but even he didn't know if he really had the strength to wield the sword and fight when those chaotic troops broke in.

At this moment, all the courage and all the energy are worn away in this long wait.

The colorful candles hanging high in the hall also seemed to be swaying gently, and the shadows of the people reflected kept shaking one by one, as if they were trembling and trembling in fear.

In this deathly silent hall, only the heavy and slow breathing of the old prime minister was heard.

Finally, the cold sweat on Garcia's forehead fell drop by drop, and he couldn't bear the anxiety in his heart anymore, and opened his mouth to mutter: "Why is it so long, why is it so........."

"Your Majesty. ”

Salumbonelli finally let out a long sigh and opened. , the old prime minister's sigh sounded like a helpless despair at the moment.

The emperor was so flustered that he didn't hear the prime minister's call, Salembonili smiled bitterly, and shouted again in an aggravated tone: "Your Majesty!"

"Huh?" Garcia was startled and turned to look at the prime minister.

Salumbonelli's eyes were very calm, and he said slowly: "Your Majesty doesn't have to wait, if you don't come back at this time, I'm afraid ......"

"I'm afraid of what?", Garcia suddenly changed color, and said sharply: "You mean that Mr. will fail?! No! Impossible! Sir is extremely powerful, my father said when he was here, as long as he is by my side, nothing will happen! With Mr.'s means, even if Adric has elite guards around him, it will be difficult to resist his thunderous blow......!

"Your Majesty!!"

The third shout of the old prime minister seemed to be like a bell, and the sound struck Garcia's heart, and Garcia suddenly shut up, and looked at the prime minister with a frightened face.

"Adric is a master of strategy and is a famous general of the Empire, and a famous general like him must have all the factors taken into account before going through battle. It is not a great secret that His Majesty has top masters around him, since he dares to launch a mutiny, he is naturally prepared and has the backhand to deal with the people around His Majesty. Alas...... "Launching a mutiny and risking the world's greatness!" Such a major matter is no child's play. Since he dares to do it......"

Garcia's face became paler and paler, and he took a few steps back, and actually fell directly on the cold steps.

"Your Majesty, instead of pinning your hopes on that master's body, it is better to make more ambitious plans as soon as possible. Salon Bonelli shook his head.

"Intending to ...... "Intending to ......," Garcia muttered to himself, but he couldn't say a complete sentence.

As if to confirm the old prime minister's prophecy, suddenly there were hurried footsteps outside the main hall, the door was almost slammed open, and a general wearing the armor of the Imperial Forest Army entered in embarrassment, his face was full of panic, and he didn't have time to salute, so he hurriedly said loudly: "Your Majesty! The rebel army has entered the imperial city, please retreat quickly!"

"What!"

Garcia screamed, and then screamed uncontrollably: "What are you talking about! The rebel army has entered the imperial city? How is it possible! The imperial city is impregnably defended! There are thousands of elite royal forest troops! In the past, the Hughes rebels could not enter, and this made those rebels break the ?!!."

The general of the Imperial Forest Army couldn't speak, he just stamped his feet and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, let's go! I'm afraid that I'm ...... late."

The old prime minister said slowly: "In the past, Hughes couldn't come in because there were guards of the Central Military City guarding the imperial city. Even though the Imperial Forest Army is elite, but in the face of the chaotic army outside, it is afraid that it will not have the heart to fight to the death, Your Majesty ......, "This situation is already like this." ”

The general of the Imperial Forest Army looked like ashes, and said with a pause: "What the Prime Minister said is right, my Imperial Majesty is not strict, although I ordered to defend the city to the death, but my soldiers have no will to fight, and someone actually took the opportunity to open the gate of the Imperial City and let the rebellious army in! My Imperial Forest Army, those who are willing to fight, will not save one in ten! Your Majesty!! Let's go!!"

"Let's go!!" Garcia laughed angrily, "The city guards are all in Adric's hands! Osgilia is in his hands!Can I still go to heaven and earth!?"

As he spoke, he suddenly waved the sword in his hand, shaved off his hat, and suddenly his hair fell out in a mess, and the young emperor raised his eyes and cried: "God!!! If you really exist, open your eyes and see! I, the Byzantine Empire, my Krenma family, have been established since the beginning of the country, is it really coming to an end!!!"

With that, he took the long sword in his hand, and slowly descended from the high steps, staggering step by step, towards the gate.

Prime Minister Salembonili suddenly stopped sideways in front of Garcia: "Your Majesty!"

"Why, Prime Minister, do I want a decent death at the end?" Garcia frowned.

"Your Majesty, the situation has not yet reached the point you said. Salembonili said slowly: "I know that Adric is a person, he is different from Minas, Minas is a wolf with ambitions, but Adric is loyal, and his mutiny is not to seek the emperor's throne, but he is afraid to ............."

After a pause, the old prime minister didn't say anything, but the implication was obvious: I'm afraid that I was forced by you, the emperor.

Garcia's eyes flashed with a slight glimmer of hope, and he grabbed the old prime minister's withered arm: "Prime minister, you say, there are still things, there are still ...... "Is there room for redemption?"

The old prime minister's eyes shot a sharp light, his words were calm, and he said slowly: "Your Majesty as long as you are willing to listen to the words of the old minister for a while, the old minister is eighty percent sure that your majesty will be worry-free!"

As he spoke, he took two steps forward, picked up Garcia's hat from the ground, and then helped Garcia sort out his scattered hair, then cut the hat on, and helped Garcia smooth out the wrinkles on his shirt, slowly took two steps back, and bowed: "Your Majesty, you are the supreme of the empire, now at this time, please don't panic and be angry, and show the momentum of the emperor!!"

Garcia stared at the prime minister, and suddenly his eyes turned red: "Prime minister, I have been unfair to you in the past, I was wrong! If I can get through today's difficulties and the power of this empire in the future, I will share it with you!"

As an emperor, it is not important to say such a thing.

However, the old prime minister only raised his eyebrows slightly, smiled indifferently, and did not answer.

This wise old man had already seen the young emperor's temperament. He is suspicious and suspicious by nature, and he has a strong desire for power, although he said such a big promise at this moment, but if he really passed today's hurdle, he will definitely regret it in the future. This kind of thing is just a matter of listening, and it must never be true.

Immediately, the old prime minister looked at the general of the Imperial Forest Army, with a solemn and majestic expression: "May I ask Your Excellency, how many powerful and credible subordinates are there in your hands?"

The officer of the Imperial Forest Army immediately replied solemnly: "There are less than three hundred outside the main hall, but these people are all brought out by me, and they are all willing to die for Your Majesty!"

"Good!"

The prime minister took a deep breath: "Please go out immediately and let your people line up in front of the main hall, if the rebels are approaching the main hall and the rebels do not attack, you will not move, if the rebels are attacking, please remember, you are the last barrier in front of Your Majesty!!"

The leader of the Imperial Forest Army was awe-inspiring, and shouted loudly: "Command, please rest assured, if the rebel army wants to hurt Your Majesty, it will be the corpse of the minister!"

After saying that, he turned around and walked out proudly, and immediately there was a loud shouting and the movement of soldiers lining up outside.

"Please go out with me and meet the rebels. The Prime Minister then laughed.

Outside the main hall, there were less than three hundred Imperial Forest troops lined up in a weak array, across the high steps.

Garcia walked out of the hall side by side with the old prime minister, and stood at the door of the hall, just behind the queue of the Imperial Guards.

In the distance, on the square of the palace between, there was a shouting sound outside the two gates, and a moment later, both gates were opened, and the central army swarmed in, cloaked in stubbornness, murderous, looking at this target in front of the main hall, he immediately rushed over.

In the square outside the main hall, I suddenly saw that the heads of people were moving like ants, and the cold air of the sword was pressing!

The tide of chaos had already swarmed under the steps of the main hall, and it seemed that they were about to rush up, and by this time, the situation was already chaotic.

Seeing that the chaotic army was about to rush up, the old prime minister suddenly took a step forward, and the old man, who was seriously ill and dying, suddenly didn't know where the breath came from, and suddenly shouted: "The central army listened! Your Majesty the Emperor again! You are the emperor's people, and when you see His Majesty the Emperor, don't you quickly retreat and salute!!"

The old man's voice was hoarse, but the voice actually overshadowed the shouts of the audience, and clearly fell into the ears of every soldier!

The old prime minister straightened up, held his head high, his old face was bloody, his eyes were wide with anger, and he shouted: "You are loyal to the good people of Byzantium, and when you see Your Majesty in front of you, don't you quickly retreat! Do you want to do the evil act of killing the army and rebelling!!"

Sure enough, with the two shouts of the old prime minister, the rebels of the Central Army who ran in front, whether they were soldiers or officers, were all stunned, and they involuntarily stopped at their feet.

After all, the Byzantine Empire has been established for hundreds of years, the royal family is still there, and the idea of respecting the emperor and being loyal to the country has been deeply rooted in the hearts of these emperors.

Seeing that the chaotic army suddenly stopped, Salembonili breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

The most dangerous time has passed.

In the heart of the old prime minister, in fact, he is not worried that Adrick will really rebel, from beginning to end, he deeply understands Adric's character, with the character of this upright and loyal man, he will never be able to do anything to rebel, and today he is in such a big mess, I am afraid that he will be forced to be urgent, and use military advice to force the emperor to submit.

However, the old prime minister understood that Adric certainly had no objections, but it was difficult for others to say it! Perhaps Adric's subordinates, among those vulgar generals in the army, there would inevitably be no careerists, and no one would have dreamed of the founding fathers.

I'm afraid that these chaotic troops will come in, and when the situation is chaotic, they will kill indiscriminately, and they will hurt His Majesty first, causing the facts, and even if Adric regrets it at that time, it will be useless.

Especially...... Well, especially that Ruhr!

The prime minister looked at the dense chaotic army below, and his heart was a little calm, knowing today's events, and he had more than eighty percent of the situation, so he coldly raised his breath and shouted: "You have offended Your Majesty and trespassed on the imperial city, Your Majesty has realized that you are also dedicated to the country, so you have to do this disorderly act! Didn't you ask to see Your Majesty and ask for your wishes! Now Your Majesty is here, if you are really still loyal soldiers dedicated to the country, you should salute! You and I are both Byzantine people, and the world has been favored by the country! The Central Army has always been the iron wall of the Empire! If you really have the intention of rebellion, I Salumbonelli is here! Kill me first, and then do the rebellious deeds!!"

The old prime minister's voice was like iron, loud and loud, with a righteous and awe-inspiring spirit, these chaotic troops were shocked, and for a while, this scene was actually quiet to the extreme!

Only among the Royal Forest Army, the general of the Royal Forest Army, whose clothes were already soaked with cold sweat, looked at the dense crowd of chaotic soldiers below, and his heart beat wildly.

Finally, I heard a horn from outside the square, but it was a stop in the middle of the army!

Hearing the sound of this horn, many officers in the chaotic army breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.

Although they are loyal to Adric and are willing to do this military advice, but after all, they are not really rebelling, and they want to rush forward now to hack the emperor to death, if no one provokes the head, I am afraid that few people really have the courage to do it.

With the sound of the horn, a horse galloped from outside the gate, and the black horse golden armor, it was Adric who rushed in with his entourage, and he rushed into the square, and shouted loudly: "The Central Army obeys the order! All of them retreat fifty steps back and line up! No orders, no rash step forward!"

He shouted these words to both sides in one breath, and the chaotic army below immediately retreated like a tide, Adric rode forward, and came to the bottom of the main hall, he turned over and dismounted, knelt down on one knee, and shouted to the top of the steps: "Emperor **Minister Adric, please meet His Majesty the Emperor!"

Seeing that Adric finally appeared, Garcia's expression became more and more ugly, at this moment, although he stood on the steps and looked condescendingly at the general of this empire, he suddenly had a subtle feeling in his heart: the other party is still a chair army at the moment, and he is still the emperor, but the status of the two sides has been completely reversed!

And the man kneeling at the foot of the steps, as long as he speaks, he can decide his life and death!

His heart was in turmoil, and Salon Bonili next to him had already gently pulled the corner of Garcia's clothes, and Garcia's face was complicated, so he slowly spoke, but his voice was hoarse, and there was no momentum at all.

"Adric, you have come to see the troops, if you have anything to say, just say it!"

When Garcia said this, he could barely stand, but he still had to rely on the old prime minister next to him to resist him!!

"Your Majesty, please stay away from traitors and adopt advice!"

'Your Majesty, please stop the chaos and take back the rebellion!'

"Your Majesty, please work hard to set things right!"

, 'Your Majesty, please set up the emperor's mind, do not alienate loyal ministers, and do not let righteous people centrifuge!"

"Your Majesty, please ......"

“...“”

Adrick knelt at the foot of the steps, and the array of the Imperial Forest Army on the steps was above him, and the tips of the Imperial Forest soldiers' spears were only a few steps away from him! Adric was full of emotion! Every word, every sentence, every word, every word, like the sound of Jin Ge's iron, spread throughout the audience!

Every time Adric said a word, Garcia's face twitched, and when he heard the end, Garcia was extremely angry in his heart, but he didn't dare to open his mouth to reprimand, but barely stood up under the comfort of the prime minister.

Finally, when Adric finished speaking, the majestic man at the bottom of the steps stood up, although he was standing at the bottom of the steps, but the figure seemed to have already overshadowed the Imperial Supreme standing on the steps!

"Adri..."Adric...... "Garcia spoke, but he was choked by the cold wind, and coughed several times before he said miserably: "You say one sentence at a time, it seems that you have already had a grudge against me, the emperor, in your heart?"

"Adric stood upright, but his eyes were fixed on Garcia: "The minister is just asking for the country, for the thousands of people, for the thousands of soldiers!"

Garcia's heart was dripping blood, and he only felt a wave ......of anger rushing to the top of his head, but fortunately, the prime minister next to him, Salemboni, grabbed his hand with force and squeezed it hard, and Garcia spat out and calmed down.

At this moment, the emperor's face was as pale as earth, expressionless, and even his eyes were like ashes, and no one knew what he was thinking at the moment.

After a long time, he felt that the cold wind was blowing, and the hearts of the people who blew were cold, and Garcia finally spoke again.

His voice was still so cold, so weak.

"Adric, you wait for the soldiers to ask, I already know, okay, Prime Minister, give me an order!"

Garcia said the last few words, and his body shook, and he almost couldn't stand.

Salembonili looked at Adric below, and the two looked at each other, but they were both awe-inspiring.

Finally, the prime minister groaned for a while, and slowly spoke: "All the chairmen under the stairs listen to the order! The emperor order: I will forgive you and others for the crime of trespassing on the imperial city today! Forgive you for the crime of offending the emperor's driver! Pardon you for the crime of transferring away without authorization!"

Speaking of this, Salenbonelli glanced at Adric again, and said slowly: "Order! Adric, the Minister of Imperial Affairs, with the rank of Imperial Marshal, leads the 'Marshal of the Protectorate' to lead internal and external military affairs, control the Imperial soldiers and horses, appoint and dismiss in the army, and act cheaply!"

These last few words finally made Garcia unable to support it, and he glanced at Adric standing at the foot of the steps with resentment, his body shook, and a line of blood slowly oozed from the corner of his mouth.

Adric listened to the Prime Minister's last sentence, and finally knelt down on one knee again: "Your Majesty's Order! Long live the Empire!"

After speaking, he turned around and looked at the dense Central Army in the square, raised his right fist, and shouted: "Long live the Empire!!"

Under this shout, all the soldiers in the audience immediately shouted in unison.

"Long live the Empire!!"

The sound is like a mountain and a tide, earth-shattering!

But in the midst of this shout, in the central army on the square, I don't know who made the first start, and shouted "Long live the marshal", and suddenly the surrounding chorus rang out.

"Long live the marshal!" "Long live the marshal!!"

In the midst of this shout, Garcia finally opened his mouth, and a mouthful of blood sprayed on the shoulder of the old prime minister next to him..."
