At the end of the red-carpeted corridor of the Gallic Emperor's dormitory, the light of the candlestick found a slender figure, and Algernon Julia watched the attendants hurriedly bring in the emperor who had passed out, and then turned around with an angry face, looked at several Praetorian Guard officers trembling behind her like ice cubes, and said in a cold voice, "Is this how you protect the emperor?" Knowing that the military ministers of the Ministry of Military Affairs want to take this opportunity to persuade His Majesty to mobilize the Northern Army to the south, and then completely control the empty Kyoto region in one fell swoop, in the hands of the Military Affairs Department, you just sit idly by?"

"Miss, your subordinates also have a last resort! His Royal Highness was confined outside the city, and the Northern Army was frequently reported, and the deputy ministers of the Ministry of Military Affairs took the opportunity to demand greater power from His Majesty's hands! A Praetorian Guard officer quickly knelt down on one knee with a sad face, and complained bitterly to Algernon Julia

"His Majesty has long forgotten the emperor's orders, and he almost responds to the requirements of the Ministry of Military Affairs."

"Some time ago, because Lord Fracis, the deputy commander of the Praetorian Guard, refused the order of the Deputy Minister of Military Affairs Ronda, the Ministry of Military Affairs forcibly took Master Frasis away from the Praetorian Guard office, because we had the order printed with His Majesty in our hands, we could only watch Francis being taken away with strange eyes.

The next day, the palace servant in charge of fetching water found the blood-stained body of Lord Francis in the stinky ditch outside the palace, and the tragedy was really chilling to think about, and we jointly vouched for Frasis to the Emperor, and the result was that the Emperor had identified Frasis as a spy in the west, and said that if it was a spy, it must be killed, for this reason, the Emperor Reprimanded us all, saying that we do not distinguish between right and wrong. Unexpectedly, the spies who sneaked into the emperor's side didn't even notice it, which made the Praetorian Guards lose face, and they were all whipped fifty times by the responsibility, "If it weren't for the fact that the Praetorian Guards have always been under the jurisdiction of the young lady, His Majesty the Emperor might have even handed over the Praetorian Guards to the ministers of the Ministry of Military Affairs!" A Praetorian Guard officer cried and mourned, and hurriedly knelt down on one knee, and complained to Algernon Julia bitterly, "The main thing is that Rasti is fighting, and the stimulation of His Majesty is too great, plus some rumors that are not conducive to adults, in the case of being unable to distinguish." His Majesty's trust in the adults is also shaking, but his subordinates still believe it,"

"Forget it before, from now on, the Praetorian Guard will take over the defense of Kyoto in an all-round way!" Algernon Julia's pretty mouth snorted, and decisively waved her hand to several Praetorian Guard officers, and secretly said in her heart that it was dangerous,

"Go ahead and arrange it now, control the gates and towers, close the streets and the passage to the outside world. For 20 hours from now, the whole of Kyoto will be put on combat alert, and it must be ensured that during this time. Not even a single rat can be released out of the city of Kyoto!" said Algernon Julia as she walked with a stern face

"Yes, my subordinates understand!" The Praetorian Guard officers behind him sensed the severity of the situation, nodded their heads one by one, and hurriedly turned away on their thorny riding boots as if they had been amnestied. The expensive red carpet in the hallway is marked with hair loss, but no one is paying attention to this, and now is not the time to pay attention to etiquette. Tonight's incident will inevitably cause strong dissatisfaction among the military, and if you are not careful, the army will attack the palace!

"Miss, what should the ministers of the Ministry of War do? If you are detained for too long, I am afraid that there will be an incalculable situation!' A Praetorian Guard officer who came to report cautiously asked, "Unless we have enough evidence, we will have to release them when the 24 hours have passed!" "24 hours is enough, bring the Minister of Intelligence Harun to me immediately!"

Algernon Julia pushed open the door at the end of the corridor, where was her office in the palace, heavy dust covered the tabletop, the floor, desk and chair were covered with a thick layer of dust, apparently no one had cleaned it for a long time, the curtains were tightly covered, not a trace of light could penetrate, there were a few messy pages of paper and draft paper scattered on the floor, dark, obscure, with an unpleasant smell of stale and dust, and when someone pushed the door open, a mouse jumped off the table in panic and "squeaked" The ground hid under the cabinet.

Algernon Julia walked to the table with a solemn expression, blowing away a thick layer of dust, and there was a brownish-red frame under the thick text

She picked it up casually and wiped it, this is a family painting, in the frame, a middle-aged couple hugging a cute little girl, the background is the majestic square of the imperial capital of Kyoto, if you know anyone will find that the man in the photo with flaxen hair is the former emperor who died five years ago, silently looking at the happy family in the photo, the slender figure of Algernon Giulia stood there, her pretty eyes moistened, through the withered yellow painting,

She saw a diligent, rigorous, and hearty figure, and affectionately called herself with a bright smile, "Julia, you must help your brother protect this country!" The previous whispers seemed to be still echoing, except for a few henchmen of the Imperial Guard, few people knew that Julia, the eldest lady in the name of the Algernon family, was actually the illegitimate daughter of the previous emperor, and had always been fostered in the Algernon family in the name of the daughter of the Algernon family,

After a while, the Minister of Intelligence, Harlan, was brought to the office by the Praetorian Guards, and Algernon Julia opened a dusty document on the table, with a flash of murderous intent in her eyes, and asked in a cold voice, "Sue me, is that information true?" or is it a false information that you know I will act tonight and make up a false information on the improvisation!"

"That's definitely a real piece of information!" Harun knelt on the ground and said with a pale face, "As for Her Royal Highness the eldest princess's plan, my subordinates don't know anything about it!"

"Also, think of a fool like you!How can you see the abnormality tonight!" The killing intent on Julia's pretty face dissipated a little, and when she received that information, she almost stopped tonight's action in fright, she didn't know if this information sent was a bait or an opportunity given by God, and finally she finally considered the importance of tonight's imperial meeting, and temporarily adjusted the plan to find out Figueros who was imprisoned in the secret prison,

Things went more smoothly than she expected, and with the experience of the Southwest Incident, Algernon Julia's arrangement this time was even more watertight.

She knew that the young emperor had been suppressed for too long, completely blind to the undercurrents surging under the actions of the military, and that the current time of Gaul Kyoto was the weakest in hundreds of years. The main force of the Praetorian Guard was split into two parts, the New Northern Army and the New Western Army, and the number of Janissaries left in Kyoto was less than 5,000, but the Ministry of Military Affairs had just given an order to Tielan, who was preparing to build a new legion, in the name of capturing the northwest spies in the Kyoto area, and transferred the 60,000 new troops of the Tielan Army to Kyoto, which was a dangerous signal.

After several years of national policy mistakes, the prestige of His Majesty the Emperor has fallen to a cruel freezing point, and the dissatisfaction of all forces against the emperor has reached the point of exploding. The local princes were eyeing the central region, and His Majesty the Emperor only saw those superficial cheers and saw the financial surplus, but he didn't think about it, because of the thorough investigation of the incident, the military had made a real determination, and Algernon Julia had a full understanding of Tielan.

This is a guy full of ambition, who can do whatever it takes to achieve his goals.

Rasti was captured by the Falcon Army in the first battle, but I don't know what means to escape again, the most likely, this guy is a chess piece deliberately put back by the Vecchia Falcon. What is the capture of spies, this guy is the biggest spy,

The arrival of the Tielan Legion finally made the military's desire start to move. The Emperor had been obscured by the successive victories of the Battle of the Northern Advance and had been able to see clearly the sight of the form, and with the encouragement of these military ministers who were eager to seize power, if it were not for the sudden attack tonight. Maybe tomorrow awaits his fate badly,

Imprisonment or exile is good, secretly executed is the most likely, in the contest of imperial power, there are only two results, life and death, whether it is for the empire, or for yourself, tonight is the last chance, although she is in the manor outside the city, but Algernon Julia in the previous month, has secretly weakened the defense of the Praetorian Guard in the palace to the minimum, many Janissaries have been sent to patrol the city, and those who remain are all Algernon Julia's diehards,

The military is waiting for an opportunity, the emperor is waiting for the results of the battle in the north, the military is also waiting, no matter what kind of report reaches Kyoto, the military will take this opportunity to launch a coup d'état, the plan is implemented very smoothly, several important military ministers have been wiped out, what to do now is to put enough charges on these guys, so that these very eye-catching guys disappear, this kind of thing, of course, needs an expert

"Sue me, if you want someone like Ronda to die, what's the fastest way?"

Algernon Julia put down the text in her hand, a puff of dust rose on the table, and she looked at the Minister of Intelligence, Harun, this sluggish-looking guy is the source of the Empire's sluggish and stupid foreign intelligence, but when it comes to snare charges, this guy is definitely a real expert

"Miss Algernon, I don't understand what you mean?" Harlan raised his head, his eyes were full of confusion, but his heart trembled to death, he didn't expect Algernon Zhu Yali to be so ruthless, and he actually wanted to kill an important minister of the Ministry of Military Affairs directly!

"Don't play dumb on me! I know you understand!"

Algernon Julia snorted very dissatisfied, "To tell you the truth, tomorrow I will behead Ronda and several deputy ministers of the Ministry of Military Affairs, if I can't think of a way before dawn, I will behead you first, and behead them! Anyway, they are all dead, and there is an imperial intelligence minister as a foreshadowing, and they are also worth dying!"

"If you don't want to die, just sue me" Algernon Julia interrupted the whole wretched creature with great dissatisfaction, she looked at Harlan, and said coldly, "Aren't you investigating the spies in the Northwest?

"I have some reports in my hand about the ministers' greed for military resources, but just because of this, I am afraid that it ......is not enough to accuse them of being spies in the northwest," Harun's face turned pale with fright, shrank his head, and said hesitantly

"Do you really think that such a crime can be enough to kill the deputy head of the Ministry of Military Affairs?" Algernon Julia said with a cold gaze and a strong murderous intent, "From now until dawn, you still have 3 hours, I will give you five hundred Janissaries and full authority to dispose of it, I don't care what method you use, whether it is to raid the house or dig three feet into the ground, before dawn, I want to see enough evidence to make their heads fall to the ground, I believe you can do it, isn't this what the Ministry of Intelligence does?" Bring out something satisfying when the owner needs it!, or you stupid fellow will go and bury them with them!"

"Yes, I understand, I will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation!" Harlan secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard such conditions. The pale face nodded again and again, and said in a trembling voice, "Since the adults have given such power, things will be easy to do, evidence of this thing, in addition to the natural existence of zài, there is also a kind of forgery, the Ministry of Intelligence has many experts in this regard, the other party is a spy in the northwest, there must be a large number of letters to and fro, as well as a large number of account books for the sale of military resources." Three hours, that's enough!"

"Then hurry up, I don't have time to delay with you!"

Algernon Julia waved her hand to him impatiently, and the Minister of Intelligence, Harun, ran out of the room with a crawl, as the Minister of Intelligence, he actually knew more secrets than others, such as the outside world had a lot of conjectures about this beautiful emperor's affairs officer, but none of them guessed correctly, only a few former emperor's henchmen. More or less guessed some,

The illegitimate daughter of the emperor, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess in the empire, such an identity is enough to scare many people to death!

The former emperor was personally promoted to the position of imperial affairs officer before his death. The 100,000 elites who ruled the entire Imperial Praetorian Guard were like a huge shadow hanging over the sky of Imperial Kyoto, like an iron curtain, cutting off the gaze of a careerist. Shelter the new emperor from the wind!

This is a ruthless and ruthless woman, if it weren't for being a woman, she might have been chosen as the heir by the previous emperor.

But the royal inheritance is so cruel, a woman cannot become an emperor of Gaul, and the character of the new emperor is indecisive and extremely suspicious.

The most severe thing is that in the face of the persecution and pressure of the Eastern and Western empires, the new emperor's endurance is obviously on the verge of collapse.

"Why, I tried my best to dodge, but I was still swept in!" Harlan was so angry that he hurriedly mobilized everyone in the Intelligence Department, and forged thousands of so-called secret letters of contact between the deputy ministers of the Ministry of Military Affairs and the northwest overnight, as for the account books, there were already ready-made ones, and the Praetorian Guard directly copied them from the homes of several military ministers

In the Imperial Council Hall, several of the Deputy Ministers of Military Affairs did not know that the courtyard had been set on fire: "Bastard, an idiot woman who doesn't know anything, dares to be so rude to us! The deputy minister of the Ministry of Military Affairs, Longda, seemed to feel something, he walked out of the door, and was blocked back by the expressionless Praetorian Guard again, and suddenly hit the table with a fist in anger, and his eyes swept over the other dozen or so people who were detained, all of whom were real ministers of the empire, more than a dozen deputy ministers of finance, internal affairs, and military affairs

Ronda scolded loudly, "Who does she think she is? Is she the master of this country? She is the one who has been blackmailing His Majesty all along, don't forget, it is our soldiers who are resisting the enemy's invasion with flesh and blood, protecting this country with blood, and expanding the territory for the country, what has she done! Go to the northwest, the northwest is defeated, the southwest is lost, the southwest is lost, the battle is over, the hundreds of thousands of troops of the empire are lost because of her indiscriminate command, even if she may be the eldest princess? After all, she is an indishonorable illegitimate daughter!If in the past, the stain that defiled the former emperor like her should be eradicated when the former emperor died!" "Shh, Lord Ronda, just say such things in your heart, and if you say it now, you will lose your head!"

"Lao Tzu is a soldier, and he has killed enough people on the battlefield, even if he dies, it is worth it!" Ronda shook his white hair angrily, like an angry lion, and as soon as his words fell, he heard a cold female voice say, "Since Lord Ronda is so contemptuous of death, if you are not satisfied, it is not very disappointing!" Algernon Julia walked in from the hall door with a cold face, carrying a bag in her hand, and a pair of pretty eyes full of murderous intent were like ice cubes, which made the air in the entire room drop a few degrees

"What kind of ability is it to talk empty words, if you have the ability, you will order to kill me!"

Ronda looked contemptuous, stood up straight, put his hands behind his back, looked at Algernon Julia with bloodshot eyes, and said, "Don't think that you can do whatever you want if you control the Praetorian Guard, the garrison of Imperial Kyoto is not only the Praetorian Guard, but also the New Ninth Army of Tielan, which has just been transferred back,

Ronda pretended to joke and said, "I heard that in Rasti, although they are all Kyoto factions, your attitude towards Tielan is very bad, I believe that this army commander will attack Kyoto mercilessly in the name of counterinsurgency after discovering that there is a change in Kyoto!"

You also know that guy's ambition, as long as he has the opportunity, he will attack, the Praetorian Guard in Kyoto is currently less than 5,000 people, and in the face of the New Ninth Army of more than 60,000 people, you have no chance of victory!

And if the news of your detention of the Imperial Minister who participated in the Imperial Council spreads, the wealthy families of the entire Kyoto will mercilessly abandon you!"

"Yes, I'm afraid you're going to be disappointed! Because the one who will be abandoned by everyone will be you!" Algernon Julia did not have the slightest panic on her face, but showed a smug smile and threw the bag in her hand on the ground.

A wad of pale yellow ledgers came out of the bag,

Algernon Julia glanced at Ronda, whose face had changed drastically, and said in a cold voice, "Deputy Governor Ronda, I really didn't expect that as the deputy chief in charge of military logistics in the empire, he would actually embezzle millions of military rations from it, and when such news spreads, even if you Ronda doesn't die, it will stink! I believe that at that moment, all the wealthy families in Kyoto will be on my side, because as long as these things are in my hands, they will bite my enemies to death like vicious dogs obeying orders!"

"And you're the first role model!" Algernon Giulia sneered cruelly (to be continued......
