Chapter 205: Surprise Attack on the Palace

As soon as he heard that the king had finally arrived, the Duke of Amberton's heart suddenly relaxed, and he let out a long breath, as if he had just run several miles.

"Why are you so tired?" asked the butler on the side, concerned.

"I didn't ...... Nothing, get ready for Your Majesty. The duke said, wiping the beads of sweat from his forehead.

As he spoke, a group of knights on white horses had arrived at the door of the banquet hall, and the duke looked at these knights in bright armor and beat a drum in his heart, and he didn't know how to deal with these people later, if he didn't handle it well, it would probably make the coup fall short.

Thinking of this, the duke's heart couldn't help but worry, so far he had not seen Savan's army, and he was still at a loss as to how this coup was going to be carried out.

By this time the king's carriage had stopped in front of the door, and the duke hurried a few steps forward to the carriage, only to see the door open and a round man moved out of the carriage. The Duke saluted respectfully and said, "Welcome to Your Majesty, it really makes the Burrow shine." ”

King Malves III is a distant relative of the Duke of Amberton, and in terms of kinship, King Malvez should call the Duke an uncle. I saw Malveis wave his hand and said, "The duke doesn't need to be polite, I have long wanted to visit the mansion, I don't know which daughter is engaged today?"

The Duke of Amberton smiled: "It's the little daughter Vissenia who is engaged, and your majesty must remember her." ”

King Malves nodded, oh, and thought to himself, "How can I possibly remember so many of your daughters." ”

The two laughed and walked into the banquet hall, and the nobles who were already seated all stood up and saluted the king when they saw that the king had arrived. The Duke of Amberton immediately instructed his butler to prepare the food, and the banquet hall suddenly became busy. Standing in the corridor on the second floor, he watched the banquet in the hall below, and saw the servants serving the dishes shuttling back and forth between the guests like butterflies wearing flowers, and the exquisite dishes were served to each guest like flowing water......

Sawan held the wine glass in one hand and said to Alwyn beside him: "The duke is really attentive and has prepared so many good dishes, but unfortunately they will soon be unable to eat." ”

Alvin nodded and said: "My lord's method of giving medicine is really good, saving everyone from doing it, and it will inevitably cause some damage at that time, and it is the best result to minimize the number of casualties." ”

Sawan sneered, "Hehe, this is also what others taught me. ”

As the banquet progressed, the guests gradually let go of their reserve, and the atmosphere in the banquet hall became more and more high, from the soft and polite at the beginning to the rough and atmospheric, profligate and dissolute. At this time, Narros quietly came to Savan's side, lowered her voice and said, "Lord, the king's guards have been put down. ”

Savin asked, "How did you put it down?"

"Most of them were drugged, and the guards had to do it directly. Narros replied calmly.

"Nothing out of the ordinary, right?" asked Samhain again.

"No, the people of the Duke's family are also in control. Narros replied.

"Very good, I guess it's going to be fast here. Savin nodded and said, "Elwin, you call the Duke out, we're almost ready to go." ”

Alwyn said yes and walked down the hall, and Sawan took one last look at the crowd before leading Narros to the second-floor terrace.

During the banquet, the Duke of Amberton was called away by a butler-like man, and the crowd who was eating and drinking did not notice the Duke's departure at all, and even if anyone did, they would not care. After the Duke left, the servants began to bring in fine wines, and explained that they were specially prepared by the Duke, and that they had been cellared for more than 20 years.

All the guests couldn't wait to taste it, and everyone drank it all with their glasses, although some people thought that this wine was a little bitter, but there must be something different about good wine, maybe this bitter taste is the characteristic. So although everyone felt that this wine was not as good as before, no one was willing to say it, for fear that others would laugh at him for not knowing how to taste it.

After a few glasses of wine, the banquet hall that was still warm just now slowly quieted down, and the guests either leaned on the back of the chair and closed their eyes to recuperate, or their hands and cheeks were straightened, and there were fewer and fewer people talking, and at this time, a few people with a little sober mind began to feel that something was not quite right.

However, even if they found a problem, they didn't have time to react, and when the last person fell, they saw the door of the banquet hall pushed open, and a group of heavily armed people broke in......

Sawan couldn't help but laugh when he looked at these staggering aristocrats, he didn't expect things to go so smoothly, and he wiped out Teitur's high social circles, including the king, without a single soldier, no wonder those gangsters like to drug people so much, it is indeed a miracle effect.

"Come, take them all to the cellar and take care of them. By the way, search the king's body to see if he has a royal talisman. Sawan commanded, and everyone moved the nobles of the palace to the duke's cellar like a bag, and a soldier searched the king for the talisman.

Sawan took the royal talisman and saw that it was a golden statue of a lion, which was extremely exquisite, which was a symbol of the king's power, as long as he had this royal talisman, he could mobilize any army in the country at will. Sawin smiled and put the talisman in his pocket.

Sawan said to Naros again: "I'll leave it to you, don't let the news leak, let alone let anyone leave." ”

After explaining what happened here, Savin immediately led the soldiers who had lurked into the city, and then took the Duke of Amberton to the palace. By this time it was already completely dark, and the Duke of Amberton was on horseback, and behind him a group of heavily armed soldiers rushed towards the palace.

Such a fanfare was soon discovered by the soldiers of the city defense army who were in charge of security patrols, these city defense soldiers were lazy on weekdays, bullying the common people is an expert, and they really encountered big thieves and bandits who ran faster than rabbits one by one, at this time, when they saw the duke's posture, although they felt bad in their hearts, no one dared to step forward to stop them, and they ran towards the headquarters of the city defense army one by one.

At this time, only one of Azir's subordinates was in charge of the headquarters of the city defense army, and from early in the morning Azir had gone out of the city with a large group of men, and such drills were occasionally carried out, so that no one would be alarmed at all. In the evening, a large caravan entered through the north gate, and the leader of the caravan took out the pass issued by Azil, and since Azil had already explained it beforehand, the caravan entered the city without hindrance.

After completing the task assigned by Azir, the cronie was casually drinking wine in the headquarters office holding his friend. Who expected that at this time, someone came to report that a suspicious team had appeared on the street, everyone was fully armed, and it didn't look like a good class. The officer in charge of staying behind was taken aback, but he immediately remembered Azil's explanation, and pretended not to know no matter what happened, not to mention that the team was outside the city, and even if he wanted to, he didn't have so many people.

So the officer waved his hand and said, "Tell the brothers to withdraw from that area, and treat it as if you didn't see it." ”

The soldier who came to report the news said hesitantly, "Sir, is this really all right? I don't think those people look like they are going to do something good......

"What do you tell you to do, you can do it? If something happens, Lord Azil will be responsible, what nonsense are you talking about!"

"This ...... The subordinates understood. ”

The city guards on this side could not retreat, but Savin and the others had already arrived in front of the palace gate unimpeded, and the guards suddenly saw a group of soldiers of unknown origin coming to them, and their faces turned pale with fright. There has been no war for many years, and the sharpness of these soldiers has long been polished, and suddenly I saw a team of men's and horses, and before they could start their hands, their momentum declined.

"Who's in front, stop at once, this is the forbidden place of the palace, no trespassing!" shouted a slightly more daring guard.

Sawan glanced at the Duke of Amberton, and now that the Duke had let go, there was no turning back at this point. Seeing that the Duke went immediately, he flashed the royal talisman in his hand and said loudly: "I am the Duke of Amberton, and by the order of His Majesty the King, all the palace guards will gather here at once!"
