My queen is rebelling!

Chapter 234: Night of Glory – Failure is Treason, Success is Revolution!

General Radynoz, holding the warrant, ran headfirst into the security team captain of the Chamberlain's Office.

The security team captain shouted loudly:

"Director, what's happening inside?"

Radynoz's expression was stern, and with the tone of a superior, he said coldly:

"This is the warrant from Baron Shepherd, your Chamberlain's Office Director, ordering you to guard Silver Heron Manor. Anyone who dares to attack can use force to retaliate.

Facing a national general, the head of the military police with the title of "General Butcher," the security team captain really didn't have the courage to question what had happened.

He could only obey orders.

After a brief pause, the security team captain led all the team members and separated to guard every corner of the manor.

The staff inside the manor were also controlled by him and imprisoned in a separate room.

Seeing that things had been handled almost completely, Radynoz finally breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

He glanced around, turned into a shadow, and left Silver Heron Manor.

… …

Frost Star City, at the very moment Grand Duke Silverfrost was shot dead by Radynoz.

The soul imprint in the secret room of the Grand Duke's palace suddenly shattered. At the moment of shattering, the Grand Duke's personal guard was directly awakened. His whole body trembled violently, and an incredible shock erupted in his eyes.

Immediately afterward, a heaven-shaking legendary aura rose from the ground and rushed towards Silver Heron Manor.

However, as soon as he showed his face, a figure in black, wearing the exclusive mask of the Black Tomb, blocked his path.

Seeing the attire of the person who came, the legendary guard's heart turned cold. A legendary assassin from the Black Tomb!

He immediately realized that this was a premeditated assassination operation against Grand Duke Silverfrost!

He took a deep breath, took out a communication stone, and quickly sent messages to several people, then began to fight with Prince Hauge, who was disguised as a Black Tomb assassin.

At the Prime Minister's residence, Prime Minister Faria, who had just entered a dream, was awakened by the earth-shattering battle between the two legendary figures. Immediately afterward, he received a communication from the legendary guard.

The words on it almost made this three-dynasty veteran faint.

The communication stone clearly read the words—

Grand Duke Silverfrost's soul imprint shattered!

Grand Duke Silverfrost had a private gathering with Chamberlain's Office Director Baron Shepherd, Army Chief of Staff Viscount Claude, and Army Military Police Supervisor General Radynoz at Silver Heron Manor tonight!

Prime Minister Faria forced himself to calm down.

He knew the nature of this so-called private gathering at Silver Heron Manor, which meant that the Grand Duke had an accident during the banquet.

Was it a sudden illness or intentional murder, was it an outsider or one of the people at the gathering who did it?

The situation was too complicated, but he quickly stabilized his mind.

Faria quickly contacted the standing members of the Council of Nobles, the ministers of the cabinet, the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency, Perez, the Commander of the Chief Police, General Koch, and the Commander of the Special Operations Division, General Mendes.

The others in the core leadership of Silverfrost's military and political affairs, Chamberlain's Office Director Baron Shepherd, Army Chief of Staff Viscount Claude, and Army Military Police Supervisor General Radynoz, were also present when the Grand Duke fell, and they could not be contacted for a while, so they were not notified.

Silverfrost was already in a state of panic because of Effiein's matter. When the movement of the battle between the two legendary figures shook the whole city, the powerful officials had already been awakened from their sleep. Many people thought that Effiein had attacked and prepared to pack up their belongings and run away.

Therefore, the Prime Minister easily contacted them.

The group quickly gathered at the Prime Minister's official residence according to the Prime Minister's instructions and quickly established a temporary headquarters.

Only Deputy Commander Jose came with the Commander of the Chief Police, General Koch.

When Koch saw the Prime Minister, he greeted him and asked:

"Has something happened?

Commander Jose was reporting to me on the recent military exercise. I saw that the situation was urgent, so I asked him to come along."

Prime Minister Faria waved his hand and said:

"Okay, everyone is here. I won't say much nonsense."

The Prime Minister took a deep breath, paused, and swept his gaze across the faces of Silverfrost's military and political officials. His voice became unusually cold:

"Gentlemen, something big has happened in Silverfrost!

I just received a message from the Grand Duke's personal guard, the legendary transcendent Mr. Valan. The soul imprint of His Highness the Grand Duke shattered twenty minutes ago…!"

As soon as these words came out, the headquarters was immediately plunged into a shocking wave of shock.

Fortunately, everyone was used to seeing storms. Although they felt unbelievable about the sudden death of the country's top leader, they quickly stabilized their minds.

After a few seconds of pause, Prime Minister Faria briefly introduced the situation to everyone.

A standing member of the Council of Nobles coldly said:

"In other words, the Army Chief of Staff, the Chamberlain's Office Director, and the Army Military Police Supervisor are all suspects!"

The Minister of Military Affairs and Minister of National Defense coughed lightly and said:

"Not necessarily, it is possible that His Highness the Grand Duke had a sudden illness and died unexpectedly."

The Army Chief of Staff and the Army Military Police Supervisor were nominally his subordinates, and he had to speak.

Commander of the Chief Police, General Koch, said in a deep voice:

"The possibility of assassination is higher, otherwise there is no way to explain the strange legendary figure who is now fighting Mr. Valan."

The Director of the Central Intelligence Agency, "Perez," also spoke at this moment:

"I also think that the possibility of assassination is higher. As far as I know, His Highness the Grand Duke is in good health and has no illness."

As the Grand Duke's son-in-law, Perez's statement was very convincing.

The atmosphere in the headquarters suddenly became tense. No matter which of these three people assassinated His Highness the Grand Duke, it would be shocking to the world.

Before everyone could have any opinions, the Minister of Military Affairs and Minister of National Defense received a message from the communication stone. After reading the content, he suddenly stiffened, and a heavy voice sounded in everyone's ears:

"Just received news that the soul imprint of Army Chief of Staff Viscount Claude, stored in the Ministry of National Defense… has also shattered!"

As soon as this statement came out, the conference room was once again plunged into shock.

Prime Minister Faria made a final decision:

"We can't wait any longer. The key now is to find out what happened at Silver Heron Manor!

My opinion is to send troops to forcibly take over Silver Heron Manor first to ensure that we see the body of His Highness the Grand Duke!"

"Agreed!"

"Agreed!"

"Mr. Prime Minister, please give the order!"

Everyone agreed. Prime Minister Faria looked at the Minister of the Imperial Household and said:

"Notify the Imperial Guard and have them rush to Silver Heron Manor immediately to control everyone inside!

If they encounter resistance… kill them without mercy!"

"Yes!"

At this time, Lieutenant General Jose suddenly spoke:

"Prime Minister, ministers, is it appropriate to send only the Imperial Guard?

Chamberlain's Office Director Baron Shepherd once served as the commander of the Imperial Guard for a considerable period of time!

Is there a risk in letting the Imperial Guard take over Silver Heron Manor at this time."

Deputy Commander Jose's words awakened everyone.

Since Army Chief of Staff Viscount Claude was also dead, the suspicion fell on Chamberlain's Office Director Baron Shepherd and Army Military Police Supervisor General Radynoz.

The Prime Minister looked at Jose with approval and said:

"Good, General Jose has considered it very carefully."

After speaking, he looked at Commander of the Chief Police General Koch and Commander of the Special Operations Division General Mendes:

"Which unit is closest to Silver Heron Manor?"

Koch recalled the military exercise situation that Jose had reported to him earlier and immediately said:

"The 9th Regiment of the Chief Police is closest to Silver Heron Manor."

Mendes shook his head and said:

"The Special Operations Regiments are all training in the suburbs or outside the city and cannot be mobilized in a short time."

Prime Minister Faria nodded and said:

"Then let the Chief Police go. Commander Koch, have the 9th Regiment mobilize urgently, target Silver Heron Manor."

"Okay."

After the arrangements were completed, Prime Minister Faria's voice became much heavier:

"Gentlemen, His Highness the Grand Duke has unfortunately passed away. Silverfrost will inevitably experience great turmoil next.

We must be prepared."

Everyone agreed, and the Minister of the Imperial Household said:

"The Grand Duke's direct son is still a minor. According to custom, a Martial Law Command must be established at this time, with the Army Chief of Staff serving as the commander to take over the national military power.

Since Viscount Claude is also dead, let General Koch act as the commander."

Everyone had no objection. General Koch said in a deep voice:

"Okay, I will immediately organize the establishment of the Martial Law Command and order all military regions in the country to enter a state of first-level alert."

Prime Minister Faria continued:

"The Grand Duke's direct son cannot inherit the title. A National Steering Committee must now be established.

Cabinet members and standing members of the Council of Nobles are all here.

As for the Army Headquarters…"

Everyone turned their attention to the Deputy Chief of Staff of the Army, Lieutenant General Dean.

Dean's face was slightly pale, and he said:

"There are a total of four generals in the Army Headquarters. General Koch and General Mendes are here.

Viscount Claude is dead, not to mention.

In addition to that, there is only Army Military Police Supervisor General Radynoz, whose current situation is unknown."

The Prime Minister's face became very solemn:

"According to the system, the consent of more than half of the generals of the Army Headquarters is required to form the National Steering Committee.

Moreover, every general of the Army Headquarters must serve as a standing committee member in the National Steering Committee.

Especially during this sensitive period when the Grand Duke has died and his direct son is young, it is easy to be criticized if there are illegal aspects."

A standing member of the Council of Nobles said:

"What if Radynoz has rebelled?"

The Prime Minister shook his head:

"We cannot make guilty presumptions unless there is concrete evidence that General Radynoz has rebelled and the Minister of National Defense personally dismisses him from his post and rank. Otherwise, we must obtain his vote."

The conference room fell into a stalemate. Suddenly, an angry roar came from outside the door:

"I am the Military Police Supervisor of the Silverfrost Army Headquarters, why are you stopping me!"

Hearing this angry voice, everyone in the conference room was shocked at the same time.

Radynoz actually escaped from Silver Heron Manor!

Faced with this sudden change, everyone was a little at a loss for a while.

They didn't know whether to allow General Radynoz, who was also a major suspect, to participate in the current meeting.

Fortunately, the Prime Minister was able to hold his ground and said in a deep voice:

"Leidinuoz was a witness to the incident, and he knows the inside story. In any case, without any evidence, we cannot groundlessly suspect a soldier who has worked diligently for the country for decades!"

Commander Koch had long looked down on those cowardly civil officials in the cabinet. Seeing his military comrades being blocked outside the door at this moment, he couldn't help but say:

"Everyone, please rest assured, even if it was really done by General Leidinuoz, Mendes and I will not let him hurt you!"

Commander Koch had this confidence. He was one of the few ninth-tier peak transcendents in the military, known as the number one expert in the army.

Mendes's skills were also no less impressive than Leidinuoz's.

Seeing Commander Koch's statement, everyone no longer said anything more.

Prime Minister Faria signaled the guards of the mansion to step aside and invite General Leidinuoz in.

When everyone saw Leidinuoz walking in covered in wounds, his breath fluctuating, they immediately fell silent.

Anyone could see that General Leidinuoz had definitely experienced a bloody battle.

And the opponent who could wound Leidinuoz, who was already an eighth-tier high-level transcendent, to such an extent must be extraordinary.

Leidinuoz's tiger eyes swept around, and he asked angrily:

"Where is that bastard Shepard?

I thought he was going to attack the Prime Minister's residence, but I didn't expect him to hide!"

Hearing Leidinuoz's opening remarks, everyone was immediately shocked. Prime Minister Faria immediately asked:

"General, what exactly happened at the Silver Heron Mansion tonight?

How is His Royal Highness the Grand Duke?"

A look of grief appeared on Leidinuoz's face, and he said in a deep voice:

"The Grand Duke... the Grand Duke was assassinated by that bastard Shepard!"

Prime Minister Faria narrowed his eyes slightly, and the emotions on everyone's faces were also very intriguing.

Obviously, Leidinuoz's one-sided statement could not completely convince everyone.

Leidinuoz was not surprised by everyone's reaction. He slightly restrained his emotions and said in a deep voice:

"You can verify what I said later. There are still so many witnesses at the Silver Heron Mansion. Many people witnessed Shepard assassinating the Grand Duke.

Also, he also killed Viscount Claude.

Behind all of this is Saxon, the damned Third Prince of the Ceylon Kingdom!"

Hearing Leidinuoz say that the mastermind behind the scenes was actually the Third Prince of the Ceylon Kingdom, everyone was once again shocked.

Prime Minister Faria immediately asked:

"General, can you be sure about this matter?"

Leidinuoz nodded and said:

"It's almost certain. From what Shepard meant, Saxon suffered heavy losses in Effien. In order to continue accumulating capital to seize the throne, he set his sights on our Silver Frost.

He wanted to plot a coup in Silver Frost, making Silver Frost a tool for him to seize the throne again. Shepard was the spokesperson he chose.

He said this to me and Viscount Claude at the banquet. He promised that as long as he assassinated the Grand Duke and the coup succeeded, he would divide Silver Frost equally between the two of us.

We both disagreed, so he shot and killed Claude. My cultivation is relatively high, so I escaped from the mansion."

The impact of the news brought by Leidinuoz was too great for everyone. For a while, everyone could not determine the truth of it.

Prime Minister Faria said:

"General, please rest first. We have already sent troops to take over the Silver Heron Mansion. If everything goes smoothly, things will be investigated soon.

By the way, according to the system and legal requirements, we now need to establish a National Steering Committee, and we also need your opinion, General."

Leidinuoz nodded without much hesitation and said:

"I agree. Also, we don't have to wait any longer. Let's start voting for the chairman now.

At this time, there must be a backbone to stand up and preside over the overall situation.

I propose that Prime Minister Faria of the Cabinet serve as the chairman of the National Steering Committee!"

A pleasant expression appeared on Prime Minister Faria's face. Chief Superintendent Koch had the best relationship with Leidinuoz. At this moment, he also said:

"General Leidinuoz's words are the words of a mature and prudent statesman. In an emergency, there is no need to follow any red tape. Everyone is here, so let's just start expressing our opinions directly!"

Everyone looked at each other, and then nodded in silence.

While everyone was busy preparing for the establishment of the National Steering Committee, Chief Superintendent Commander Koch received a call from the 9th Regiment.

After listening to the content, Koch's eyes revealed a deep look, and he said to everyone:

"Lieutenant Colonel Dickinson of the 9th Regiment of the Chief Superintendent has arrived at the Silver Heron Mansion with two infantry battalions, but they have been attacked by the security team of the Chamberlain's Office!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed.

The armed forces of the Chamberlain's Office actually attacked the soldiers of the Chief Superintendent!

What this meant was self-evident. General Leidinuoz was likely not lying just now. Shepard, the director of the Chamberlain's Office, had really betrayed!

The atmosphere in the command room suddenly became much more strange. The betrayal of the director of the Chamberlain's Office, who was closest to the Grand Duke, would definitely bring earth-shattering shocks to the entire Silver Frost upper class.

Everyone turned their attention to the newly appointed chairman of the National Steering Committee, the current supreme leader of Silver Frost, Prime Minister Faria.

Prime Minister Faria's face suddenly turned cold, and he said to Koch:

"Let the men of the 9th Corps attack the Silver Heron Mansion with all their strength and bring the rebels to justice!"

A look of determination appeared on Koch's face, and he replied loudly:

"Yes, sir!"

Prime Minister Faria then looked at Perez, the director of the Central Intelligence Agency, and said:

"Director, I authorize you to form a special investigation team for the Grand Duke's assassination case. You will be the team leader, and the Minister of Military Affairs will be the deputy team leader.

Investigate this attack on the Grand Duke. The command room of the investigation team will be located under the National Steering Committee.

You and the Minister of Military Affairs must investigate what happened tonight."

In Perez's body, the Fear Demon Akdi Meng was overjoyed. This was an unexpected surprise.

He didn't expect Faria to hand over the investigation rights to Perez.

Everyone did not raise any objections to the Prime Minister's approach. Both publicly and privately, Perez, as the Grand Duke's son-in-law, was the most suitable candidate to investigate the entire incident.

And the assistance of the Minister of Military Affairs can also ensure impartiality.

Without delay, the two immediately organized manpower and sent people to search Shepard's office and official residence.

… …

Silver Heron Mansion, after receiving the order from Commander Koch, Dickinson said to the deputy commander behind him:

"Attack with all your strength, the people in the Chamberlain's Office... leave no one alive!"

A sinister smile appeared in the deputy commander's eyes. With a wave of his hand, he led the assault team and began to attack the Silver Heron Mansion.

The security team in the Chamberlain's Office was suddenly shocked. They never expected that the Silver Heron Mansion would be attacked by troops from the Chief Superintendent.

Didn't they know that this was the Grand Duke's place of rest?

Or was it that the Chief Superintendent's army had mutinied?

Faced with the organized attack of the army, the mere hundreds of security guards were no match at all.

And the two strongest sixth-tier and two fifth-tier captains had already been dealt with by Cohen and Winsader earlier.

At this moment, they were even more leaderless and at a loss.

As time passed, seeing that the Imperial Guard was about to arrive, but they had not completely attacked, Dickinson became a little anxious and angry. Looking at the warrant that had just been sent from the Prime Minister's residence, he immediately had an idea.

The battle became more and more fierce and brutal, and the security guards began to suffer large-scale casualties.

Just as everyone in the Chamberlain's Office was hesitating whether to break in and ask the Grand Duke and Director Shepard, a rough voice sounded outside:

"The rebel army of the Chamberlain's Office, listen up, you are surrounded.

Immediately give up resistance, stop kidnapping His Royal Highness the Grand Duke, and don't cut yourself off from the country!"

The security team of the Chamberlain's Office was confused. How did they become the rebel army kidnapping the Grand Duke?

A leader of the Chamberlain's Office shouted loudly:

"General, there must be a misunderstanding. We are ordered to protect His Royal Highness the Grand Duke!"

Dickinson was overjoyed and continued to shout:

"Your superior, Director Shepard of the Chamberlain's Office, has openly betrayed the country. I have a joint order from the Cabinet, the Army Headquarters, and the Council of Nobles, requiring you to immediately lay down your weapons and hand over the Silver Heron Mansion to us.

As for whether you participated in the rebellion, you will be cleared after the matter is investigated."

After speaking, Dickinson turned the warrant stamped with the seals of the Cabinet Prime Minister, the Army Headquarters, and the Council of Nobles into an arrow and threw it into the Silver Heron Mansion.

The people of the security team were confused when they saw this genuine warrant. Had their Director Shepard really betrayed them?

The leader gritted his teeth and shouted loudly:

"Okay, we will hand over control of the Silver Heron Mansion.

Please, General, be sure to keep your promise!"

Saying that, he ordered to give up resistance.

Seeing this, Dickinson outside the mansion immediately led his army straight in and controlled the entire Silver Heron Mansion within a few minutes.

Then, with a look, he signaled to kill all the personnel in the Chamberlain's Office to silence them, amidst the anger of the security guards.

After solving all this, Dickinson first came to the room where the mansion staff gathered, kicked open the door, and asked coldly:

"I am Dickinson, the commander of the 9th Corps of the Chief Superintendent, ordered by the Cabinet, the Council of Nobles, and the Army Headquarters to take over the Silver Heron Mansion.

Tell me, what exactly happened here!"

The person in charge of the mansion trembled and replied:

"We don't know anything. We only heard sounds in the banquet hall not long ago. Before we could figure out what was happening, the people in the Chamberlain's Office told us not to move around and stay here."

Dickinson asked coldly:

"In other words, you were imprisoned by the people in the Chamberlain's Office?"

The person in charge of the mansion could not confirm whether it was imprisonment.

After all, at that time, the people in the Chamberlain's Office only told them to stay in the room and not to move around, saying that there was a big situation in the banquet hall that needed to be dealt with.

Seeing Dickinson ask this at this moment, he didn't know how to answer for a while.

Dickinson smiled coldly and said:

"You still don't know, do you? Director Shepard of the Chamberlain's Office has already betrayed. He just openly assassinated His Royal Highness the Grand Duke here!

Are you still going to defend him?

I'll ask you again, were you imprisoned by the people in the Chamberlain's Office!

You only need to answer yes or no!"
