"His Highness Arthur, His Highness Arthur, wake up! The big thing is not good, His Royal Highness the Duke has been assassinated! Her Majesty wants to see you! The door of the lavishly decorated room was suddenly pushed open, and a gentleman who looked old and steady had red eyes at the moment, rushed in and shouted loudly.

"Uh-huh?" The sleeping Conrad Arthur woke up in an instant, got up from the bed, and hurriedly asked the old gentleman, "Butler Hunt, what happened?" ”

"There's no time to say more, Your Highness Arthur, go to Her Majesty's side. His Royal Highness the Duke was assassinated on the streets of London this morning, and now the royal family and the entire government are investigating the matter. The butler named Hunt said with red eyes and a little crying.

"Huh? What the hell is going on? How could my father have been assassinated? Conod Arthur was momentarily startled and asked in disbelief.

Arthur Arthur's father, Arthur William Patrick Albert, was one of the greatest monarchs in the history of the British Empire, the third son of Queen Victoria, and the honorable Duke Connaught and Strathason and the Earl of Sussacks.

Such a noble prince and duke were assassinated in the capital of his own country, and Conod Arthur could not believe it.

"I don't know, everything was fine at first, who would have thought that suddenly an assassin would come to assassinate His Highness? There's no time to think about it now, Your Highness, go to Her Majesty's side first, at least it's still absolutely safe there. Steward Hunt said with sadness and concern.

Speaking of the resume of the old Hunter butler, although it is not brilliant, it is very deep.

Since the Duke of Arthur William Patrick Albert was knighted in 1874, Steward Hunter has been the steward of the entire Duchy and Duke Arthur for more than twenty years.

In the past twenty years, not only Duke Arthur has grown into a qualified duke step by step as Steward Hunter, but even Conod Arthur has grown up under the watchful eye of Steward Hunter.

This is why Butler Hunt was so sad after hearing that Duke Arthur William Patrick Albert had been assassinated.

"So what now?" Connad Arthur had only been on this body for a few months, and he didn't know much about the environment he was in during those months.

In addition, my previous understanding of the British Empire was only half-understood, and I only knew that Queen Victoria was one of the greatest monarchs in British history and known as the grandmother of European royal families.

Under such circumstances, after the assassination of his father, Duke Arthur William Patrick Albert, Connad Arthur did not know what to do for a while.

"Go to Her Majesty's side first, the most important thing now is to ensure your safety, Your Highness." Butler Hunter said decisively.

After losing Duke Arthur William Patrick Albert, the lord who watched him grow up, Steward Hunt could no longer tolerate another accident with Conod Arthur, who he watched grow up.

"Alright then, Steward Hunter." Conod Arthur also understood the importance of the matter and nodded.

Buckingham Palace, Queen Victoria's meeting room.

The room was filled with senior officials and members of the royal family from the United Kingdom, at least at the level of ministers.

"Your Majesty, please pay your respects. The departure of His Royal Highness Duke Arthur is regrettable, but the most important thing now is to find out the reason for the assassination and the real culprit behind it. Robert Selsey, the current Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, said with a sad face.

In any case, the assassination of the prince and noble duke of the British Empire in the capital of the British Empire was a great humiliation to both the royal family and the government.

This is not only a provocation to the dignity of the royal family, but also to the dignity of the British Empire.

You must know that the British Empire is now the world's first power, and the navy has crushed the world's second and third powers.

Under such a premise, someone who dares to plot the assassination of the Duke and Prince of the British Empire in London, the capital of the British Empire, is equivalent to slapping the British Empire and the British royal family in the face.

"The Prime Minister is right, check it out for me immediately! Within three days, I need to know all the information about the murderer and whether there is anyone behind him who is behind him. Anyone implicated in the assassination was arrested and released after no suspicion was confirmed. I want to make those who dare to hurt Arthur understand that the dignity of the royal family is not so easily provoked. On top of that, Queen Victoria, who was already eighty years old, said with a sad and angry face.

Prince Arthur William Patrick Albert has been Queen Victoria's favorite son since birth, and although a large part of Prince Arthur's favor was split after the birth of his sister Princess Beatrice, he remained Queen Victoria's favorite son.

In particular, after the second son, Prince Alfred, went to Germany to inherit the title, and the fourth son, Prince Leopold, died of hemophilia in 1884, Prince Arthur was more valued by Queen Victoria.

In addition, the eldest son Edward was not loved by Queen Victoria, and after repeated scandals of inappropriate private life, Queen Victoria did not care about him.

It is precisely because of this that there have been repeated rumors in British politics and among the people that Queen Victoria wants to appoint Prince Arthur as the crown prince.

Although Queen Victoria did not make any moves to abolish Edward's throne, it is not known whether she secretly thought so.

"Knock knock!"

A sudden knock sounded outside the door, interrupting Queen Victoria's angry roar.

Everyone looked at the door, trying to find out who dared to disturb Queen Victoria's anger at such a time.

"Grandmother." Arthur walked in slowly, calling out with red eyes.

This grandmother instantly dispelled Queen Victoria's anger. Looking at the face in front of her, which was very similar to her favorite son, Queen Victoria couldn't help but shed two tears from the corners of her eyes, and said in a choked voice.

"Good boy, come to grandmother. You can rest assured, with your grandmother here, no one can hurt you. Queen Victoria stepped forward, took Arthur's hand, and led him to the top position.

"His Highness Arthur." Government officials saluted Arthur.

"The decree was that Arthur's title was to be inherited by Arthur the Younger, including all the castles and possessions. Arthur was buried as a prince, and the flag was lowered to half-mast for three days. Queen Victoria said sadly as she stroked Arthur's face with red eyes.
