From the pure blood dragon clan, I started to become a human being

Chapter 129
The next day, the execution took place as usual.

Countless people were watching at the booth outside the palace. A few days ago, the imperial magistrate personally issued a notice that two core members of the Oberg Assassination Society would be publicly executed.

The document mentioned in detail the crimes this organization had committed. As an assassination force, Oberg did not take positions. As long as the funds were in place, anyone could become an assassination target. In the past ten years, more than three prefect-level figures have become Their hunting object.

At noon, two masked prisoners were beheaded in front of the public amid loud chants. A wealthy businessman wanted to buy the corpses of the criminals at a high price. If they could be sold to the families of the former victims, they might make a lot of money if they were resold.

In the stands, General Bude had a solemn face and said without turning his head: "If you just use two death row prisoners to make up the number, you are not taking me seriously. Earl Midgard, even if the circumstances are excusable, but Use is use, you can definitely discuss it with me in advance."

The Imperial Capital Prison was completely destroyed last night, and the commotion almost woke up the entire capital. The people may not know what happened, but in the eyes of the nobles and officials, all the clues were clearly revealed afterwards.

"But it is an established fact that the leader of the Orberg association was successfully killed. It is enough to offset the merit. Do you still want my subordinates to pay for it with their lives? The general who once went deep into the hinterland of the grassland to capture the clan king did not get what he deserved at all. The treatment is not even a decent banquet, what you should question is the current situation of the empire."

Next to her, Esdeath was sitting on a chair with her legs crossed, looking like she was doing nothing. As the leader of the Ernest faction, she didn't need to be too polite to Bude. It would be better to say that fighting him directly was what she wanted. , if the identities of the two parties were not so closely related, she would have already invited her to a duel.

"Hmph, don't have any problems with the southwest expedition in the near future. Whether you can join me depends on this opportunity. I hope everything goes well for you." General Bude stood up and left with a cold face.

Jiang Yuan continued to flip through the alchemy notes. He was now both a feudal noble and a general-level military attaché. Overall, he was considered a high-ranking official in the empire. This small problem could not shake his position. At most, he would pay some benefits afterwards.

Now the number of puppets in the eighth room of March of the Dead has been restored, and the overall number is back to seven.

Snake doll, eagle doll, tiger doll, blood shield doll, military music doll, insect woman doll, earth dragon doll.

As for the last spot, Jiang Yuan planned to reserve it for the super dangerous species, but in today's era, the prerequisite for killing the super dangerous species was to be able to find it.

1000 years ago, the extremely powerful empire hunted this extremely dangerous prey, resulting in a sudden decline in the number of super dangerous species. Even if there were survivors, those who were as smart as humans understood that the overlord of the era had changed. , will only hide in remote places. If you want to lock the target, you must have sufficient manpower and material resources.

……

Compared with the execution of unimportant criminals, the nobles and officials of the imperial capital paid more attention to the imperial meeting.

With the emperor's deliberate connivance, two princes have died, a powerful marquis in the empire has been forced to rebel, and a large number of elite noble troops have been wasted in meaningless wars. If we talk about prodigality, now this majesty has almost nothing to show for it. Its right.

The day when the imperial court meeting is held again means that the game for the throne has come to an end.

Hundreds of officials came to the palace again. The eldest prince's faction occupied three central legions. As the main supporter, Ernest's power spread throughout the court. No matter how you looked at it, the third prince was vulnerable to his elder brother.

According to the usual practice, the eldest prince only needs to defeat his opponent, show his strength by admonishing, and then attract the bias and support of the neutral ministers, and finally take advantage of the trend and become the prince. Even the emperor is not good at this kind of situation. Case rejection.

"Your Majesty, the third prince's conduct is not good. On the day of the fourth prince's death, he stayed at the dancing girl's house at night, which is really against human ethics."

"Your Majesty, the third prince has acted wantonly. In recent years, he has killed dozens of servants without any reason. I have solid evidence. His murderous intention is so serious, which is enough to prove that he has no monarchy."

"Your Majesty, the third prince is already twenty years old and has not made any achievements. He is not very useful in the eyes of the people. The eldest prince is loyal to the country and quells the rebels. In terms of military achievements, there is no comparison between the two." A dozen important ministers came out in succession. Remonstrated, there were more people in the queue who bowed their heads in agreement. Ernest and Muli said nothing. As long as there is a prince who can succeed to the throne, His Majesty can abdicate honorably.

"You may as well tell me what you mean, sir."

The emperor sat sideways on the throne, being fed seasonal fruits and vegetables by a beautiful woman, looking carefree and relaxed.

"The third prince has no virtue, no talent, no achievements, and no achievements. I would like to ask him to be deprived of all his titles and demoted to a commoner."

The Imperial Treasurer stood up from the queue. He was one of the core figures of the Ernest faction. His speech at this moment basically represented the attitude of the entire faction. In order not to irritate the emperor's sensitive nerves, he deliberately avoided the topic of the prince. .

The eldest prince glanced at the financial officer. The financial officer now came forward with the intention of asking for reward. Of course, after ascending the throne, he would not refuse such a meaningful contribution.

Jiang Yuan was wearing the official black fox uniform and stood behind Ernest. He had adjusted his mentality. If the emperor didn't do some chores, it would be against the nature of a happy person.

On the throne, the emperor gently nodded and said with a smile: "Actually, I don't deny that the third prince is a waste. What you said makes sense. Then remove the duke's title and fief, recruit private soldiers into the Tenth Legion, and then deprive him of it. How about admonishing the position of adjutant and never hiring him in the future?"

"Your Majesty Shengming."

The praises of the ministers enveloped the entire palace for a while.

"However." The emperor swallowed a mouthful of fruit pulp and continued: "Although the third prince is stupid, the empire is in need of a steadfast king at this time. He happens to be clean, so let him be the prince."

The third prince who had originally given up suddenly raised his head, with disbelief still on his face. The eldest prince gritted his teeth and lowered his head, clenching his fists.

"No, Your Majesty!"

"How does this work."

"That's ridiculous, Your Majesty."

The ministers almost went crazy. Once the third prince ascended the throne, how could they, the supporters of the eldest prince, find a happy ending.

The emperor said unhurriedly: "The eldest prince is good at fighting, and he is just in time to lead his troops to quell rebellions in various places. Brothers and sisters are respectful, and the great cause of ZTE is in front of us. I have something to do, so you can disperse."

The royal guards stood up and left with the emperor. Before he could walk out of the palace hall, the majesty suddenly burst out laughing. If it were not for the support of the guards, he would have nearly collapsed from laughter. Those idiots really thought that their advice could sway everything. The emperor's will is really ridiculous. He doesn't have the final say on what to do with the rules.

The hearty laughter was full of mockery, like a loud slap on everyone's face.
