"This is betrayal! This is a shameful betrayal! How could he betray his emperor! The Emperor's voice was still like a storm and thunder, and it shook the entire hall of the goddess of Pallas. Even the people who were blocked out by the heavy bronze doors could faintly hear the emperor's voice, let alone the members of the "Privy Council" who were inside.

The so-called Privy Council system is a very traditional political system in Auckland, which was founded during the Griffon Dynasty. In different historical periods, its members ranged from about 5 to 20 people, all of whom were trusted by the emperor and served as the emperor's state advisers. Of course, the powerful local faction exercised political power in the central imperial court in a legal capacity, so one can imagine what kind of power monster it will create. The Privy Council soon became the most powerful authority in the Auckland Empire, influencing the authority of a powerful king, even during the reign of a powerful king. Of course, since the members of the Privy Council must be members of the noble nobility, in a sense, you can even think that they are hereditary.

Emperor Iken's first "achievement" after ascending the throne was to restore the Privy Council, and appoint the heads of the First Rank Gate, including Tyrion, Duke of Lancaster, Archduke Dilisa, and Eufrik, Duke of Stormkod, as members of the Privy Council. The rest of them were all old hereditary nobles who were born, and they got this position that should have been passed on to the garbage heap of history a long time ago. But now, when they faced the emperor's roar and spit at close range, did they ever regret it? Naturally, they know their own warmth and coldness.

"He promised me that he would respond when the time was right. Give the rebels the deadliest blow! But now he has betrayed not only his rightful king, but also his own promises! Such people. It is simply a shame for the entire empire to be able to occupy such a high position, and to be regarded as the first-class gate valve of Auckland for thousands of years! The emperor could not bear to tolerate that he would be played with by his own vassals as monkeys, and banged the table hard, as if to make his words more convincing: "He is a shameful scumbag, scum!" In the past days, the important ministers I trusted have disappointed me and broken me countless times! But this time, I was particularly sad. The honour of the historic Auckland aristocracy is talkative. Your heraldic banner has been trampled on the ground and will never be able to turn over again. This is what I want to think of you! Look at you adults with a long history! Whether you are still regarded as a friend and a right hand, or a group of lowly mercenaries and thieves who have milk and are mothers! ”

“…… Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Duke Ufrik alone cannot represent all the nobles of Auckland, and you cannot insult us like this. The Marquis of Minonas couldn't help but say loudly.

"Really? Am I insulting you? But if you are not insulting yourself, how can the emperor insult you? Look at all of you, my niece, who has been beaten countless times by my niece, a little girl who is not as old as your children. We failed in the North. Defeat in the Whispering Hills, defeat in the Rainbow River, defeat under the city of Herin, and now to Serokhya. We can't afford to lose anymore! Hanel and Kassandal lost 200,000 troops, and the main force I managed to raise was under Herring. Thanks to your stupidity and cowardice, once again the whole army has been destroyed! The fate of my military adviser, Neahru, is unknown. My most loyal warrior and best friend lost his life! Do you dare to sit here and defend yourself now? ”

“…… Your Majesty, we are also fighting bloodily! ”

"You're just busy running away!" The emperor was furious. Directly picked up the golden wine glass on the table and smashed it at the Marquis of Minonas, who was "outspoken".

"Phew!" The glass smashed on the marquis's forehead. It stands to reason that this direct minister, who directly admonished that "the emperor should not insult the nobles", should have directly expressed his dissatisfaction, but at this time, he fell on the ground like a pug and began to tremble.

Fortunately, the enraged emperor would not pay attention to this dog-like man disguised as a great nobleman, and he continued to roar frantically: "Yes, yes, you have history, you have a lineage, you call you nobles, you are lords, you have armies and territories!" But compared to the mob traitors under my niece's command, your only strength is that you can eat with knives and forks! ”

The emperor's voice had faintly reached the outside, although it was intermittent, but it was enough to make the nobles and high-ranking officers who looked at each other, numb and desperate, understand that the lord was very angry, and was very dissatisfied with their subordinates, and almost scolded them directly.

"You cowards, trash, rice buckets!"

…… Well, now nothing is bad.

A little maid seemed to be unable to stand such pressure, lowered her head, and let out a low sob.

"What happened?" A mild-to-somewhat submissive voice rang out outside the crowd. Obviously, it was such a sound that was particularly easy to bully when he heard it, but it made the imperial ministers and generals present seem to have heard the gospel from heaven, and some even sighed in a low voice, as if they had only resumed their breath at this time.

"Your Highness......" the little maid whispered, "Your Majesty, he ......"

In the face of so many people's collective onlookers, a hint of cringe flashed on the face of the young man who had just arrived, but he still gritted his teeth and walked slowly towards the door. Everywhere he passed, everyone flashed a path for him.

"Your Highness Somans, you'd better not go in at this time. Your Majesty...... Well, the Imperial Council is being held. "Viscount Harriel, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, has already been in charge of being the royal merchant of Emperor Iken's family, which is equivalent to watching the children of the sovereign grow up, and of course he is less cautious in speaking. He looked around, lowered his voice, and whispered in the young man's ear, "...... To the north, Herrin City has fallen. ”

"What?" The young prince let out an exclamation, but then realized that his action seemed too unsteady and too un"human-oriented", and immediately lowered his shoulders again and coughed awkwardly. He noticed that everyone present seemed to be looking at the decoration of the corridor of the Yongchen Palace. And "didn't" notice his actions, this slight relief.

This young man was none other than the eldest son of Emperor Iken. Somans? Walter? Sanskrit? Di Marhia. Of course, after his father's accession to the throne. As the eldest son, he soon assumed the status of crown prince, and the title changed from the former Marquis of Césaire to the current Prince of Calgary.

Yes, it's the "Calgary" in Karin's title "Duke of Calgary".

The emperor ascended the throne, but his niece raised troops in the north, and announced the fact of his assassination and a series of ironclad evidence on the spot, and slapped his uncle in the face on the spot. In a fit of rage, the Emperor Iken gave his eldest son, even though he gave his niece's fief and rightful title to his eldest son, and transferred an army of 20,000 men and several experienced generals to his eldest son, Somans. Let him be in charge of the southern raid on Calgary to prevent the "rebels" from echoing in the north and south.

I have to say, let this unlucky child who was turned into a "naturally stupid and herbivore man with a weak face and red eyes being bullied every day" to lead the troops to fight? If Lu Xi knew, he would definitely praise His Majesty the current Emperor for being a great husband who was very creative and courageous.

At this time, the emperor's anger was still continuing.

"For many years, I always thought you were the backbone of Auckland. The emperor's to the emperor, the nobles to the nobles, a stable society. Solid country, this is order! But look at it now, you who were born noble have long since deviated from the glorious traditions left by your ancestors. You are now the disgrace of Auckland, and your incompetence will cut you off. Your territory, your everything! A year ago, I thought I already had the Empire. But a year later, I lost it again. With your help, I lost him little by little! I should have ...... you a long time ago No. Kill all these incompetent but stealing high-ranking guys, just like Caterina did! ”

"No, Your Majesty, we still have a chance, we can still recruit troops from among the refugees, and if we don't have enough time, we can also ask the surrounding vassals to provide us with more troops! You are their rightful lord, and they have an obligation to protect you......" Duke Celeras seemed frightened and began to speak incoherently and incoherently.

"You idiot! They have provided us with an army of 100,000, but all of them have been buried in the city of Herrim. I have been betrayed by my lord, so why should I mobilize the army of my subjects? What will it cost to get them out? Do you want to disgrace Oakland's ancestors? The Emperor roared and baptized the face of the old duke, who was ten years older than himself and full of brains, with a fat brain: "Why would I let such a fool as you live in the Privy Council, I should have chopped you up and fed to Caterina!" ”

He finished spraying, and finally got tired, and sat down in his chair slowly, losing all his spirit, as if even his soul had left his body with vitality. He sat dejectedly, silent, and raised his eyes to look at the Privy Council ministers who were being sprayed with blood.

These people are nothing but identity, but because they have identity, they must let them occupy high positions under their command. Otherwise, how could he gain the support of these people and sit on the supreme throne?

As soon as he thought of this, he suddenly became extremely envious, and even admired his niece. This little girl, with her seemingly weak body, contains a strong will directly from her grandparents, and dares to wage war against these ancient nobles who have dominated the land of Auckland for thousands of years. And he, Iken? Walter? Sanskrit? Dimahia, once Prince Césaire, now the rightful emperor of Holy Auckland, is known to many supporters and admirers as the "Iron Man", but he knows that he does not have the courage to change the world and the world.

"No, I'm not wrong...... The traditional is order, and order should have strict nobility and cheapness. I was right, father, you and your granddaughter are wrong. The Emperor kept repeating these words in his heart, trying to convince himself in this way.

What he didn't know was that when he was so frantically ridiculing and scolding his important ministers, it didn't mean that each of them could have self-cultivation or cheekiness.

"Is this the Supreme of Auckland?" The Marquis of Gerbat hung his head, listening to the emperor's crazy insults, and a different emotion naturally brewed in his heart: "This is the emperor of Auckland? Is this the heir of the Sun King and Estelle of Light? How did I kneel down and swear allegiance to such a person? ”

It is said that Emperor Iken is an old-fashioned and paranoid person, but he is determined and strict and polite, although such a person will definitely not become a Taoist monarch, but he will definitely not be a faint monarch. Perhaps, in an era of peace, he may be able to become a king of observance, and if he is lucky, he may be able to leave a historical evaluation close to that of the Ming monarch...... It's a pity that when he encounters events and people that are out of his control, he completely loses his bearings. He so threw the blame into the hands of his subordinates, forgetting that he, as the ruler, would be most responsible for all the failures.

He didn't even have the means to comfort his subordinates to pretend to buy people's hearts, how dull, how clumsy......

"Maybe I really need to think about my future." The Marquis of Gerbat hung his head, but he thought so.

At this time, the emperor spoke again, his voice was still cold and hard like a stubborn stone, but at least he had regained his due sense, and it was obvious that he had finished venting.

"Tell me, gentlemen...... As the Lord whom you have sworn allegiance, is my command absolute? ”

"Yes, my majesty." After a few seconds of silence, the people present all answered at the same time. Actually, they don't really have much to say other than that.

“…… Well, let's take a few steps. Take out the gold coins in the treasury, the rewards of rewards, and the co-optation of co-optation, and in any case, let those five legions obey my orders, and in any case, let the army of His Excellency the Prime Minister and the Grand Duke of Longbao arrive at the imperial capital King Qin as soon as possible. The emperor said slowly: "My lords, remember, this is the imperial capital, and we have no way back." I'm not going to leave here, even if my niece's sword cuts my neck...... But you must also remember that until I leave this world, I will not make it easy for all of you here. Okay, now, let's leave and do whatever you have to do. (To be continued.) )
