Adam understood the hidden meaning in Derek's words, but he couldn't leave.

After so many years of dormancy, everything would be ruined if he left.

Although staying was dangerous, it was also an opportunity.

So he smiled: "Count, hurry up and leave, it's too late to get out."

The palace city is easy to deal with, but once the army arrives at the city gate, it will not be so easy to rush out.

Derek nodded. This time he couldn't take the lead again.

The palace gate was slowly opened. The prince's people thought they had convinced the palace guards, and the soldiers rushed in.

But when the palace gate opened, they were greeted by cold knights.

Boom!

The horse hooves roared like thunder.

The northern knights began to charge and directly opened a bloody road.

Fighting and sacrifice opened the passage and paved the bloody road.

Derek turned a blind eye and rushed out of the palace gate under the protection of the knights.

The officers of the city guards obviously did not expect this to happen.

Before they could react, they were rushed out by this team of cavalry.

Then the palace gate was closed again, as if nothing had changed.

Viscount Adam had already clenched his sword and stood on the palace wall.

"The situation is unclear. Without the order of His Majesty the King, we cannot let anyone in.

This is the duty of the palace guards. They must defend it even if they risk their lives.

As for life and death, leave it to God to decide."

...

Derek galloped and finally got out of the city before the outer city gate was blocked.

The rebels did not react that quickly, and they were short of manpower. The eldest prince could not win over too many people after decades of operation.

Louis II was still the boss of the Locke Kingdom.

What he relied on was suddenness.

Kill his father and ascend the throne.

As long as Louis II died, as the first heir, he could legally mobilize all the troops.

At that time, he could calmly clean up the mess and command the kingdom.

With military power in hand, there would be no opponents.

If there were, there would be no.

Prince Arthur's idea was right, and the plan was sudden enough.

When the army he controlled entered the palace, what they saw was the body of Louis II.

The confidants who controlled the black slave army and the black slave leaders came to see the new king.

"Your Majesty, I have fulfilled my mission."

Prince Arthur couldn't help but smile, his eyes full of excitement.

He saw the body of Louis II, a little sad, but more happy.

"Good! Good! Good!"

I have waited for this day for too long. I can wait, but you, father, shouldn't give Radek unnecessary hope.

I am the heir to the kingdom, and I don't need any shitty competitors.

While Prince Arthur was happy, a black leader suddenly came forward, speaking half-baked Locke language, begging: "Respected... King, the Booker tribe has fulfilled the agreement with you, begging you to grant us the same status."

According to the agreement, Prince Arthur promised to give them the same status and even reward them.

This is also the reason why they are willing to fight for their lives. After experiencing the miserable life of being a slave, they know the meaning of freedom.

And many people of the Booker tribe have been captured, and they need to bring freedom to their people.

Prince Arthur's face was twisted with laughter. When he heard the request of the black slave leader, his eyes suddenly became weird.

"Of course, I will fulfill my promise."

The black man knelt down to thank him and sincerely supported Prince Arthur's rule.

Prince Arthur asked someone to take the body of Louis II away.

Suddenly, he stopped and whispered to his confidant: "It's cleaned up."

Patricide, seizing the throne.

This kind of black history is fatal to a king.

Especially when the person who handled it is still alive.

What promises are bullshit.

Prince Arthur left, but the soldiers around him had already drawn their longbows.

Buzz!

"Count Asier Lesgo Unamuno assassinated the king, the black slaves rioted, kill!!

The eldest prince Arthur has led the troops to suppress the rebellion, everyone stay at home."

"King Arthur ascended the throne, all troops obey orders."

In a short time, this explosive news spread throughout the capital.

Derek was definitely not the only one who escaped by chance, but the blame did not fall on him.

Prince Arthur is not stupid. It is okay to find someone to take the blame, but he also needs to find someone with sufficient status and position but not strong.

If Derek is asked to take the blame, he can really lead the army to kill.

On the contrary, this Asier Lesgo Unamuno is very suitable.

The territory is in the central part of the south, right next to the royal territory.

The family is mainly engaged in business, lacks hard power, and has never been famous for bravery.

He is rich and has a bad relationship with Prince Arthur.

The perfect scapegoat, the key is that you are wronged, what can you do?

With the power of the royal family, Count Asier will soon shut up.

No matter what the truth is, Louis II is dead, and the eldest prince naturally took over the scepter and had temporary rule over the Kingdom of Locke.

The most important thing is that he can control the army.

After gaining power, he blocked the city gates, placed his confidants, and interviewed some royal nobles.

Soon, some of the royal nobles who recognized the situation began to declare their allegiance to the new king.

Opposition?

Prince Arthur did not tolerate them, and directly sent troops to the door, charged them with participating in regicide, and cleared the household registration.

But in one day, the capital was quiet.

Derrick once tried to enter the city, but was blocked back.

The new king even gave face to the duke's investiture documents and scepter.

Now, it is in front of Derek.

"This Prince Arthur is really decisive. He stabilized the situation temporarily in one breath."

Derrick watched the royal coup up close and gained a lot.

The so-called power collapses quickly and shifts quickly.

No one cares who is on the throne. As long as the interests of the nobles and the operation of the entire system can be guaranteed, it seems that changing someone is fine.

The so-called loyalty is particularly ironic at this time.

"They are all deaf and dumb. Everyone knows who the murderer is.

I don't know if they still remember when they knelt in front of Louis II to swear an oath?" Simon was indignant. He had no feelings for Louis II before.

"It's normal, so they are nobles." Virut could accept it.

"I am also a noble." Simon couldn't help but refute.

Virut rolled his eyes and didn't want to argue with the nitpicker.

"Duke, what do you think we should do now?"

"What?" Derek looked at the investiture document and suddenly laughed: "We can't get involved in this matter, but we can't let Prince Arthur be too idle."

He pointed to the seal on the investiture document.

"Find someone to carve an identical one and make a document to give to our Prince Radek."
