Rise of the Overlord

Chapter 271 civet cat for prince

On the morning of October 1672, 21 in the Han calendar, still in the study of the main hall of the Tianjing City Royal Palace, the eldest prince Liu Jiarui said to Yang Guanghao, the commander-in-chief of the Han army with a gloomy face: "The matter of the eldest princess and my little nephew, Do you have to give an explanation to His Highness?"

Yang Guanghao said with embarrassment: "Your Highness, please calm down. I have already sent an infantry battalion to surround the villa where His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess lives. It stands to reason that not even a fly can fly out, but when the infantry battalion outside the villa enters After the villa, I found that there were only some ordinary servants left in the villa, Her Royal Highness, your little nephew, and the guards around Her Royal Highness were all gone."

With a sound of "啪——", the eldest prince Liu Jiarui slapped the table in front of him hard, "I can't even fly out, so why did the eldest princess and my little nephew disappear? How did they leave there?" Villa? Do you know that the disappearance of the eldest princess is likely to cause great trouble?"

The eldest prince Liu Jiarui's rhetorical question made Yang Guanghao's forehead break out in cold sweat. Although Liu Jiarui was always gentle and refined, Yang Guanghao knew very well in his heart how cruel Liu Jiarui was.

Yang Guanghao then said cautiously: "Don't worry, Your Highness, I have ordered the troops to search and arrest the whole city, and I will find Her Royal Highness and your little nephew!"

Liu Jiarui snorted coldly, "Have you found the son-in-law?"

Yang Guanghao said with a bit of embarrassment: "Your Highness, I have found a tunnel in the manor on the outskirts of Tianjing City, but I haven't found the son-in-law yet."

The look on Liu Jiarui's face suddenly calmed down again, "Commander Yang, the Eldest Princess has a huge influence among the people, and the son-in-law has an unquestionable status in the navy and air force. The situation in the capital today is basically over. I'm under control, and I don't want any other disturbances to arise because of the eldest princess and the son-in-law, which will affect the enthronement ceremony on the [-]st of next month."

Yang Guanghao hurriedly said: "Your Highness, it's not just Tianjing City, all the major military regions in the country are now under the complete control of our people, there will never be any changes that will affect the enthronement ceremony of Your Highness."

The eldest prince Liu Jiarui then pondered for a while and said: "I thought about it for a long time last night, and I felt that the purge of the navy and army should not affect too much. It is enough to replace someone who is loyal to me. After all, it is not easy to build a world-class air force and a world-class navy. I am worried that once this cleaning is expanded, it will destroy the strength of our Dahan Air Force and Dahan Navy. foundation."

At present, the Dahan Air Force has more than [-] fourth-generation fighter jets and more than [-] third-generation fighter jets. All the fourth-generation fighter jets were sold by Su Yi to the Dahan Kingdom.

Although because of the ongoing war between the Gothic Kingdom, the Kingdom of Nica, and the Kingdom of Eru, these three countries in the world's first echelon have all entered the wartime system, and the production of aircraft has doubled several times. After the Kingdom, namely the Gothic Kingdom and the Han Kingdom, it has become the third and fourth country equipped with fourth-generation fighter jets.

However, this war between the Gothic Kingdom and the Kingdom of Nica and the Kingdom of Eru was very fierce. The number of fourth-generation fighter jets manufactured by the three countries was very large, but the third-generation fighter jets of the three countries were also lost in the battle. The Han Kingdom is still the country with the most fourth-generation fighter jets in the world.

At present, the Dahan Navy has thirteen aircraft carrier fleets and more than [-] fourth-generation fighter jets acting as carrier-based aircraft. Among the thirteen aircraft carrier fleets, except for one aircraft carrier captured by the Gothic Navy, the remaining twelve aircraft carriers are from the Gothic Navy. Su Yi rented it.

In addition, the 32 guided missile cruisers, [-] attack submarines, [-] guided missile destroyers and [-] comprehensive supply ships among the [-] aircraft carrier fleets of the Han Navy are all leased from Su Yi. It can be said that the [-] aircraft carrier fleets The core strength is all leased by Su Yi to the Dahan Navy.

The Dahan Navy relies on thirteen aircraft carrier fleets with fourth-generation fighter jets as carrier-based aircraft, and even the Gothic Navy, which has the most aircraft carrier formations in the world, is not afraid.

Yang Guanghao, Commander-in-Chief of the Dahan Army, heard that the eldest prince Liu Jiarui was planning to reduce the scale of the purge of the Dahan Air Force and Dahan Navy. The navy, the officers and soldiers below will not be able to make any big waves, and it would be a pity if our Dahan Air Force and Dahan Navy were destroyed because of a large-scale cleaning."

At this moment, the eldest prince Liu Jiarui suddenly asked: "Cabinet Prime Minister Chen Pu, and Cabinet Deputy Prime Minister Qian Jianrong, what is their attitude now?"

The coup launched by the eldest prince Liu Jiarui this time was not only as simple as putting King Liu De under house arrest, he even arrested most of the members of the Dahan cabinet. The cabinet members who were not arrested had already defected to the eldest prince Liu Jiarui.

You must know that the Han Kingdom has already implemented a constitutional monarchy, and the cabinet has the greatest power. The king of the Han Kingdom is often just a symbol of the Han Kingdom, but now the eldest prince Liu Jiarui is equivalent to firmly controlling the cabinet. The military power of the Kingdom Defense Force and the administrative power of the government are all in their own hands.

Liu Jiarui, who is about to ascend the throne to become the king of the Han Kingdom, does not plan to be a king in name only, but intends to let the Han Kingdom implement the centralized monarchy again.

Yang Guanghao shook his head and said: "Your Highness, the attitude of the two prime ministers is very tough. It seems that they are unwilling to cooperate with Your Highness and transfer the power of the cabinet to you in a legitimate manner."

A gleam of coldness flashed in the eyes of the eldest prince Liu Jiarui, "It seems that I have to talk to the two prime ministers in person."

On the afternoon of the 21st, the eldest prince Liu Jiarui, under the protection of the royal guards, came to the camp of the First Mechanized Infantry Division of the National Defense Forces in Tianjing. Liu De was also secretly transferred to this camp of the [-]st Mechanized Infantry Division.

After Liu Jiarui came to the camp of the [-]st Mechanized Infantry Division, he first came to the room where King Liu De was imprisoned. After seeing Liu Jiarui, King Liu De snorted and did not speak, and closed his eyes.

Liu Jiarui waved to the royal guards who were protecting him and let them leave the room, then Liu Jiarui sighed and said, "Father, I don't want to do this either, but since you already know what's on me Secret, then I have no choice but to take the risk and attack my father first."

King Liu De slowly opened his eyes, and said in a cold voice: "This king never thought that the son who has been raised for nearly 30 years is not my own son, but this king is soft-hearted. After learning the truth It is now a big mistake not to do something about you right away."

It turned out that when King Liu De's first queen, Zhang Min, died of dystocia, the fetus in her womb did not survive, and after Queen Zhang Min and the fetus in her womb both stopped breathing, only medical staff could be in the operating room. The door for personnel access was suddenly opened, and a nurse brought in a newborn baby, and this baby was the current eldest prince Liu Jiarui.

All of this was personally planned and arranged by Liu Jiarui's uncle, Zhang Yuan, brother of the late Queen Zhang Min.

In fact, when Queen Zhang Min was seven months pregnant, the fetus in Queen Zhang Min's womb had no fetal heartbeat, and according to the doctor's examination of Zhang Min, Zhang Min's physique would make it difficult to conceive a child again.

After Queen Zhang Min heard the bad news, she was terrified, and Zhang Yuan, who was with Zhang Min at this time, after a burst of shock, immediately ordered all the doctors and nurses who were in charge of giving Queen Zhang Min's prenatal examination to be brought under control. Then persuade Queen Zhang Min to conceal this matter.

According to Zhang Yuan's plan, let his younger sister Zhang Min continue to pretend that everything is normal, and let Zhang Min give birth to a child in two or three months. As for the dead baby in Zhang Min's stomach, Zhang Yuan will use a healthy newborn baby. son instead.

Coincidentally, a female celebrity secretly adopted by Zhang Yuan was also pregnant almost at the same time as Zhang Min, and Zhang Yuan had already learned in advance that the female celebrity was pregnant with a son.

Zhang Yuan planned to use his own son to replace the dead baby in his sister's womb. In this way, his son would most likely become the king of the Han Kingdom in the future.

Queen Zhang Min was finally moved by her brother and agreed to his plan. After all, if the queen could not give birth to an heir for the Han Kingdom, then no matter how good her relationship with King Liu De was, she might be forced to divorce King Liu De by the cabinet. Yes, you must know that the Han Kingdom implements monogamy, so the blood of the Han royal family cannot be cut off!

However, what Zhang Yuan didn't expect was that Queen Zhang Min had an accident when she gave birth to the dead baby, but the plan to replace the dead baby with her own son was successfully implemented.

After Zhang Yuan's own son became the eldest prince Liu Jiarui, all the doctors and nurses who knew the truth of this matter were all dealt with by Zhang Yuan. Trying to solve them one by one, in order to avoid future troubles, Zhang Yuan didn't even let the family members of those confidantes go, but what Zhang Yuan didn't expect was that one of his confidantes cheated his death and became a fish that slipped through the net.

Zhang Yuan originally didn't intend to let the eldest prince Liu Jiarui know his real identity, but the fish who slipped through the net reappeared a few years ago, and threatened him with the real identity of the eldest prince Liu Jiarui. Zhang Yuan, the deputy minister, carried out blackmail.

Although Zhang Yuan didn't care about losing some money, the existence of an insider forced Zhang Yuan to tell the truth to the eldest prince Liu Jiarui. After all, the family of the insider had already been killed by someone sent by Zhang Yuan. Zhang Yuan was also not sure whether this former confidant of his would reveal that secret in the end.

After the eldest prince Liu Jiarui found out about his life experience, he began a series of arrangements to place his confidants among the top military and political officials of the Han Kingdom.

After the fish that slipped through the net cheated his death that year, he remained anonymous and re-established a family. He didn't even think about avenging his family, he just wanted to spend his life in peace.

However, when the only son of the insider suddenly got seriously ill, the huge medical expenses forced him to take risks and began to blackmail Zhang Yuan.

And when the son of the insider died half a year ago, the insider was so desperate that he finally revealed the matter of the civet cat being replaced by the prince, and sent the matter to the major newspapers of the Han Kingdom. the truth.

Under the suppression of the eldest prince Liu Jiarui and the deputy finance minister Zhang Yuan, although the matter of the civet cat's exchange for the prince was not published in any newspaper in the Han Kingdom, the matter was still known by King Liu De, and King Liu De soon proved it. The truth of this matter came out.

Liu Jiarui sighed again, "Father, I don't want to do this either, but since my life experience was exposed, you obviously meant to train my second brother to be the next king. The most powerful country in the world, for this great ambition, I will never allow anyone to stop me from becoming the king of the Han Kingdom!"

King Liu De pouted at this time and said: "After this king knew the truth of the matter, in the face of the late queen, he did not take any measures against your father and son, which is already the best of humanity. Does this king still want to give up the throne?" , to a prince who is not of royal blood?"

Liu Jiarui shrugged and said: "This is the end of the matter, it is useless for us to talk about other things, but because of the relationship between father and son for more than 20 years, I will not harm the father, but I hope the father will be more sensible. I will hold the enthronement hall on the [-]st of next month, in order to be more legitimate, I hope that my father can attend my enthronement hall, and pass the throne to me personally in the enthronement hall."

King Liu De sneered and said: "If you want this king to pass on the throne to you in a legitimate way, you'd better stop daydreaming."

Liu Jiarui smiled slightly, "Father, since I promised not to harm you, I will definitely keep my promise, but don't you think about the situation of my mother, my four brothers and sisters?"

King Liu De raised his eyes, "You actually use your mother, queen and younger brothers and sisters to threaten the king?"

The smile on Liu Jiarui's face remained unchanged, "Father, as long as you cooperate, I can assure you that the queen mother and younger brothers and sisters will never suffer any harm."

King Liu De then stared at Liu Jiarui for a long time, and then slowly said: "I hope you can keep your promise, after all, your mother and queen have always treated you as her own, and your younger brothers and sisters have always been with you. Very close."

Liu Jiarui said with a serious expression: "Father, don't worry, as long as I successfully become the king of the Han Kingdom, you will still be my most respected father, and I will treat my mother, queen and younger brothers and sisters the same as before."
