Chapter 57: The Hidden Crisis of the Empire

"Father, have a good rest, nothing else, I'll go first" Chloe shook her head and looked at Germaine and said lightly.

"Wait, I still have something to tell you," Germain hurriedly stopped when he saw that Chloe was leaving.

Seeing that Germain had something to say to herself, Chloe stopped, looked at Germain and did not speak.

Seeing that Chloe didn't speak, Germain shook his head and said helplessly: "The imperial brother has been in a coma for several days now, and now the situation in the imperial city is turbulent, and now there is a master like the Sword Emperor Saxim, if you can, I hope you will stay in Art City in the near future and don't go anywhere." ”

"What about you, what are you going to do?" Chloe asked, thinking for a moment, looking at Germain.

"Now many people must think that I am dead, I plan to make a mistake and create a fake death news, and take this opportunity to secretly go out to find the third prince. Germain thought for a moment, looked at Chloe and said lightly.

"I see, I'll be staying in Art City and not going anywhere in the near future, be careful yourself," Chloe nodded and looked at Germaine as he promised. After saying that, he slowly walked out of the room.

Looking at Chloe slowly walking out of the room, a relieved smile flashed on the corner of Germain's mouth.

"Croe, is your father's injury all right?" asked Ellie, looking at Croe, who had come out of Germain's room.

"Father is fine, but he is very worried about the affairs of the empire now, so I should stay in Yat City and not go anywhere. Chloe shook her head, looked into the distance, and sighed.

"Oh, is His Majesty the Emperor almost overwhelmed?" Asher said in surprise as he looked at Chloe.

"That's right, my father said that His Majesty the Emperor is almost unable to hold on, and now he has been in a coma for several days, and now the undercurrent of the imperial city is turbulent, if it is not handled well, I am afraid that the entire East Empire will fall because of this. Chloe looked at Asher and shook her head.

"Hasn't His Majesty chosen an heir yet?" said Vermeo, looking at Chloe.

"Father said that His Majesty already has a candidate in mind, but not everything in this world can be as he wishes, even if the lord of a country even reaches the legendary ninth ladder, there will be this or that helplessness. Chloe looked at Fomeo and nodded.

"Oh, who is Your Majesty's chosen heir?" said Ellie, rolling her eyes to Chloe.

"Your Majesty wants to choose the third prince Assel, because only the third prince Asel can protect the empire for a hundred years, but the third prince Assel is not keen on the throne, he only likes to take the team he formed to go on adventures everywhere, and left the East Empire a long time ago, which made His Majesty a headache. Chloe thought for a moment and explained to Ellie.

"Oh, why didn't Your Majesty choose the eldest prince and the second prince, but the youngest third prince?" Luna also looked at Chloe and wondered.

"Although the eldest prince Slater is the eldest son, he is selfish and cruel, and he does not have strong ability, so he is not a good candidate for the lord of a country, as for the second prince Daniel, although he is talented, capable and skillful, His Majesty also wanted to pass on the throne to him at first, but later saw that his ambition was too great, if it was not handled well, the East Empire would perish because of him, only the third prince Axel had the ability and a benevolent heart to make the empire develop for a long time. Croe thought for a moment and explained as she looked at the crowd.

"I see. Vermeo nodded in understanding.

"And what is Your Majesty's plan for the future?" asked Asher, shaking his head and looking at Croe.

"Your Majesty later planned to wait until the third prince himself changed his mind to accept the throne, anyway, he could hold on for a few years, but he didn't expect that he couldn't hold it before this, and he couldn't contact the three princes for a while, so he left a photo scroll for my father, if he died, let my father use the scroll to tell the world to pass the throne to the three princes, although the three princes have no intention of taking the throne, but they are a filial person, in this case, they will not refuse Your Majesty's final request. Croe looked at Asher and explained.

"Then wouldn't it be nice for your father to directly use the photo scroll to announce that it was the third prince who inherited the throne. Elle looked at Chloe and wondered.

"How can things be so simple, although Your Majesty is in a coma now, but the person is still alive, how can it be possible to use this scroll while Your Majesty is still alive, besides, my father was attacked as soon as he left the city of Ate before. Chloe shook her head and explained.

"That's right, neither the eldest prince nor the second prince wants your father to come out and stir up the situation. Asher leaned back on the couch and nodded.

"Now we can only hope that Your Majesty will come to his senses himself, so that he can declare himself heir. Chloe looked into the distance and said lightly.

"I'm afraid things won't be as simple as you think......" Ashur thought for a moment and looked at Chloe and shook his head.

"What do you mean by that?" said Fomeo, looking at Asher with some confusion.

"Although I don't know whether it is the eldest prince or the second prince who wants to take your father's life, but seeing that he can ask the Sword Emperor Sax to make a move, it must be inevitable for the throne, and now that His Majesty the Emperor is unconscious, I am afraid that many forces in the imperial city have already fallen into his hands. Ashur leaned back on the couch and said lightly.

"What should we do, although it has nothing to do with us who is the emperor, but if, as Chloe said, the empire is in the hands of the eldest prince or the second prince, the Easter Empire and even the entire Landis continent will be affected, and then I am afraid that no one will be able to stand alone. Vermeo thought for a moment and looked at Asher and asked.

"The current way, your father is seriously injured now, with the arrogance of Saxim, I am afraid that your father has died in his hands, it is better to let him pretend to be dead, so that he has a chance to find the third prince, but even if he finds the scroll in the hands of the third prince, I am afraid that the matter will not be so easy to solve." Asher thought carefully and looked at the crowd.

"That's what my father meant, I hope the empire can survive this catastrophe. Chloe shook her head and sighed helplessly.

At this time, in a mansion outside the imperial city, Saxm swaggered in, he stepped on the ground after entering, the ground suddenly shook, and an underground entrance slowly appeared, and Saxm did not hesitate to walk in directly.

"Saxom, has what Your Highness told you to do succeeded?" As soon as Saxes entered the secret room, the old man sitting in the first place looked at Saxes and asked lightly.

"Hey, old Alfre, I'm not one of your men, you'd better not talk to me like that, it's just a deal. Sax looked at the old man sitting in the first place and said politely.

"Then you have to answer my question before we can continue with the next transaction. Alfree shook his head, looked at Sax, and said lightly.

"Well, although things have encountered obstacles, no one can save the people I want to kill. Saxm nodded and looked at Al Verley confidently.

"That's fine, Duke Germain's life will only be an obstacle, tell His Highness the news, and His Highness should be able to carry out the next plan. Alverje looked into the distance and said lightly.
