Chapter 130 The Eve of the Storm
When the sky turned slightly white, the purple moon gradually disappeared, leaving only a faint outline.
When Salist left the palace and returned to the camp of the Second Battalion of the Kingdom Guards, Dossueen and Saphirland rushed over as soon as they learned about it.
She sat on the chair, gently stroked her smooth forehead with one hand and closed her eyes. She felt an indescribable melancholy and sadness on her bright and charming face.
Compared to her angry look when she left, it was like a different person.
Dosseyen and Saphirland rarely see the appearance of Salice. She is a person who rarely shows sentimentality. Anyone who is a little familiar with her knows that her heart will always be full of tenacious will.
What happened when the palace was traveling at night?
Duo Xiuen took a step, looked at her carefully and said, "Sir, the First and Second Team of the Kingdom Guards have been assembled."
"Announce new orders and let them all disband."
Salice opened her eyes, casually glanced at the two people in front of her and waved her hand to order.
“…As for the order.”
After hesitating for a moment, Duo Xiuen responded and turned around and left. Although he didn't know why Lord Salice changed his previous orders, it was not the time to go against doubts.
He didn't want to anger her, who was unpredictable at this time.
Saphirland stood aside, Salice had no intention of speaking, and he could only wait honestly until Doshuen returned.
"This time I was impulsive and reckless. It turned out that His Majesty had already learned about the invasion of Sugarro from the military headquarters..."
Salice stood up, although there was no emotion on her face, but her words could not help but reveal a faint bitter taste.
"In the near future, Your Majesty will appoint me as the commander of the army to fight against Sugro, and the Silver Wings Army and the Kingdom Guards Second Battalion will follow me."
"What?" Doshuen and Saphirland said in surprise.
Salice walked out the door and looked at the rising sun gradually rising in the sky. After sighing, she laughed out loud.
"Now, I have roughly understood what Your Majesty means..."
"Master Commander, His Majesty..." Saphirland looked at her back with a serious expression and guessed.
"Yes, that old guy is finally going to die."
She turned to them and smiled.
"Before he died, he entrusted me with the future safety of this kingdom."
Quiet, heavy.
In comparison, there is another room across countless streets.
"After those nobles witnessed Tilrant's body with their own eyes, they reached a consensus after a debate. In the near future, they would not give up their original idea decision."
Sasso picked up a cup of tea that woke up on the table, and the troubles in the middle of the night made him extremely tired both physically and mentally.
"It seems that His Majesty's actions have completely angered them, but Tirrant is now dead and they have no key evidence in their hands." Bedwin said in confusion.
Sasso shook his head and chuckled, saying, "Sometimes the corpse can speak."
"Does...they want to forge evidence?" Bedwen frowned and asked subconsciously after thinking about it.
"That's right!" Sasso narrowed his eyes slightly, and said with a deep cold light: "According to the inside line of the royal palace they bought, the father will not live long. They believe that if the father does not want the king to be involved in the turmoil in the future, then after their group is saddened toward Volance, it is very likely that the inheritance of the throne will be decided."
"They are gambling!" Bedwin said in surprise.
"I don't want to bet, but at this time we can't stand a step back! They are already forcing me to make the final decision!"
Sasso clenched his fists and smashed it on the table with hatred. So what if he is a prince? But in the end, he was like a puppet and was controlled by those powerful noble groups!
This feeling of powerlessness, this sense of shame, and this sense of compromise all stimulated his arrogant heart.
"His highness calms down!" Bedwen quickly comforted: "Maybe those nobles are indeed too presumptuous, but they are allies on our side after all. Once there is an internal strife at this time, it will only be unfavorable to Your Highness. As long as you ascend the throne in the future, you will have enough time to slowly get everything back!"
"Of course I know this."
Sasso looked gloomy and said, "Bedvin, is the source of information about the Sugro invasion true?"
"The subordinates dare not be very sure, but the intelligence is very likely to be true." Bedwin said respectfully: "According to the intelligence person who sent the news, the towns and areas on the border with Sugro were severely blocked by some mysterious army soldiers. The news about Sugro's invasion could not flow into the hinterland of the kingdom at all, so..."
"Do you suspect someone deliberately intercepted this important military intelligence?" Sasso asked with a serious expression.
"Yes!" Bedwin said heavily: "And only the military headquarters are capable of doing all this!"
"Military?"
Sasso fell silent, and at this moment, he suddenly thought of many things.
Why did the military headquarters block this important military information that concerns the safety of the kingdom? Do they want to rebel? It is impossible! They absolutely do not have the courage to do this. They must have been instructed by someone to let go.
Who is it? Is Volance? No, the old foxes in the military headquarters will never obey his orders before the throne is settled. Then, there is only one person pointing the finger at it.
But why did he do this?
His thoughts were like a mess that made people irritated. Sasso pondered for a long time and still couldn't figure out the inside story. He stood up and walked back and forth, but his face became increasingly ugly.
At this time, the closed door made a rhythmic sound.
"Your Highness, my subordinates take a step back for the time being." Bedwin's ear moved, and he turned to Sasso and asked.
Sasso nodded absent-mindedly, and he could naturally hear the movement of the door. It was the secret code of the latest information from Bedwin's subordinates.
After Bedwen left the room, he saw an ordinary-looking attendant standing by the side and waiting quietly.
The two of them didn't say anything, but walked around the quiet and deserted garden together, and then Bedevin asked in a low voice: "What kind of information has been sent from the palace?"
He knew him because he was the person in charge of the palace intelligence.
"Mr. Bedwin, the palace just sent back the news that Commander Salice had entered the palace to meet His Majesty not long ago." The attendant said softly with his ears.
"Have you found out what His Majesty and Commander Salice said?" Bedwen sank.
"No, Your Majesty only let Lord Salist meet alone, and Franmingo commanded Lord Salist to guard his Majesty's bedroom, so no one knew what was going on inside." The attendant paused and said, "However, according to the intelligence informant, Lord Salist looked very sad and melancholy after coming out."
"You retreat first, I need to report this news to Your Highness."
After saying that, Bedwin hurriedly walked quickly towards the room just now!
If the entire king is the one who deserves attention and vigilance the most, Salist is probably the one who can make her look like that, and it would never be a trivial matter!
After knocking on the door and receiving a dull response from Sasso in the inner room, Bedvin quickly opened the door and entered.
"Your Highness, information from the palace..."
Looking at the thoughtful prince at the table, Bedwen hurriedly recounted the information he had just obtained.
After listening, Sasso closed his eyes and leaned back on the back of the chair and sighed softly.
"Bedvin, I already have an unknown premonition."
"Your Highness, do you know what happened in His Majesty's bedroom?" Bedwen was stunned.
"I have no idea."
Sasso smiled bitterly and said, "From childhood to adulthood, I have never guessed the real idea of my father's heart. Every time I thought I guessed it right, but the result was always beyond my expectations... Do you know? Once the father makes a decision, I, Volance, and the nobles can't stop the violation. He always has his own unique ideas, he always has an unexpected decision, and this time, the result will probably be the same."
"Court Council..."
He sighed and sighed.
"That will be where everything is clear."
...
"Losling, Sugro has reached an agreement with us, and this little girl Salist will completely leave the capital in the near future."
In the darkness, an old voice echoed.
Roslin was sweating on his back and his face was filled with anxiety and said in a low voice: "Teacher, will Salice really leave?"
"Haha, speaking of it, I have been with the man on the throne for many years. I naturally know the thoughts in his heart than anyone else. His body is no longer good. He doesn't want to see this kingdom causing irreversible turmoil due to the struggle for the throne. He wants to keep the vitality of this kingdom to survive, and the only person he can trust and entrust is Salice!" The old voice explained without any haste.
"Teacher, I have always had a question. If His Majesty had set the position of heir to the throne early, this kind of tortuous and bizarre situation would not have happened now." Luoslin mustered up the courage to express his doubts.
"You don't understand that person. He ascended the throne by stepping on his brother's body. Outsiders think he is a king who is focused on power, but in fact he wants to inspire this kingdom. After so many years, he has been committed to cracking down on the power of the nobles and gathering the country's economic and military power. If his methods were too fierce back then, this kingdom would have been broken up."
"He has laid the foundation for the future, but who can follow his will? So, he decided to let what happened to him happen again!"
"What?" Luoslin said in surprise: "Has he arranged it intentionally from the beginning to the present?"
"There is no affection on the road of power, nor any affection! He always believes that the winner is the king!" The old voice laughed, "We chose Volance because he is far more ruthless than his brother. Speaking of which, he is the person who is most like the king's nature back then."
"If Worans ascends to the throne in the future, we may..." Roslin said worriedly.
"Don't worry, since we can let him sit on the throne, we will naturally have the ability to drag him off the throne!"
