Guidebook for the Dark Duke
Chapter 87: Pick up the pieces
The visitor walked in front of Duke Wilson and slowly knelt down on one knee.
"My lord, please forgive me for being late and worrying you."
Duke Wilson looked at the person in front of him with a slight smile on his face. This person was the adjutant he wrote to Prince George.
"Where's the prince?" In front of outsiders, Duke Wilson still gave Prince George a lot of respect.
"His Royal Highness has entered London, he asked me to come to you." The adjutant replied in a deep voice.
Duke Wilson nodded, George still seemed to have a little conscience, and he would be better off in the future.
"How is it outside?" Duke Wilson asked about the war outside.
"All traitors have been subdued, please rest assured."
Duke Wilson nodded, but he was relieved.
"Your Majesty, Prince George asked me to send a message. If the matter on your side is over, please go to London to meet." The adjutant continued.
Duke Wilson frowned, glanced at the clock, it was past four o'clock.
"What's the situation in London now?" Since Prince George said this, there must be a message.
"The messenger just said that London has stabilized, but the Duke of Rand is now stubbornly resisting at Buckingham Palace." The adjutant said solemnly.
Duke Wilson raised his eyebrows. The guards in Buckingham Palace are Duke Rand's biggest support. This situation is very reasonable, but he is afraid that Duke Rand will jump over the wall and cause any damage to the palace.
"Is it dangerous?" Duke Wilson asked deliberately, he didn't want to witness the scene of Buckingham Palace being burned to the ground.
The adjutant understood the Duke's mind very well, and immediately replied: "Please rest assured, Duke Rand is now tied to a corner, and he is only negotiating conditions with His Royal Highness."
This adjutant knows a lot. Duke Wilson took a careful look at the adjutant. This man is his confidant. Quite patient.
"I see, we'll go right away." Duke Wilson made up his mind.
In his hands, Duke Wilson is now in charge.
Maybe the sound of gunfire outside has been reduced, and the gentlemen and ladies who were hiding in the room also stuck their heads out of the room to check. The situation in the room is very obvious, except for Outside of Duke Wilson and Lord Orlam, the big man they were thinking of did not appear, and now it seems that the situation is really set.
Although these people are greedy for life and fear of death, their brains turn faster than anyone else. Seeing that Duke Wilson and the others have the upper hand, several people immediately walked downstairs.
"Your Excellency, this is very good, thanks to you today, otherwise we will all die here." A very shrewd gentleman complimented.
And when he complimented him like this, the others followed suit, and the whole hall became very harmonious for a while.
Duke Wilson was too lazy to talk nonsense with this group of people, just nodded at a guard beside him: "Send these gentlemen away." After that, he turned his head to look at them: "Although it is possible now I've left, but I suggest that you don't rush back to London, go back tomorrow, or it will be a mess and it will only add to the mess."
These people don't want to leave at this time, this place is probably the safest place, but Duke Wilson doesn't want to keep them at all, and they can't speak to stay by themselves. Reluctantly, he was sent to his own carriage by the guards and servants.
When these messy people were all gone, and it was a little late, Duke Wilson, Duke Wilson and Evan walked towards London in a carriage.
Lord Oram's castle was almost littered with corpses, Evan didn't want to take a second look after one glance, and after entering the city of London, the whole street was as quiet as a grave , As if they had experienced a war, there was no one on the street, not even the beggars and children selling newspapers that were usually seen everywhere. Every household closed the door tightly, as if there were some terrible monsters outside.
Evan has never seen such a desolate and desolate London, and he also has a real understanding of this rebellion in his heart. The sword, light, sword, shadow, blood and rain in the book may be just a description in the book. It looks like this to outsiders, but when you are really in such an environment, you will find that it is 10,000 times more terrifying than what you imagined in modern society.
Evan shuddered and glanced at Duke Wilson, who was sitting on the side with his eyes closed and silent. Perhaps to Duke Wilson, these were nothing, after all Duke Wilson He was brought to the battlefield by the old duke at the age of sixteen. Although he did not have any actual military exploits, he had already seen the cruelty of the battlefield. This rebellion in London was nothing in his eyes. How about myself...
Evan suddenly felt a little powerless, as if his previous rhetoric was a little ridiculous at this time, Evan sighed and closed the window of the carriage, maybe he should put it down as a book He should really integrate into this society, just like this rebellion, he is almost helpless, everything makes him unable to do anything, because this is not the invisible smoke of modern times In the war, everyone fights their wits and courage, maybe he still has a chance, but with such a simple and rude use of a knife and a gun, Evan has no way at all.
Evan couldn't help but let out a wry smile, which was so embarrassing.
With the sound of horseshoes, they finally came to the gate of Buckingham Palace. Evan had also visited this palace before he came to this world, but now this palace is in modern times with him. The one seen is slightly different.
The guards of Buckingham Palace stopped Lord Orlam's carriage, and after inquiring, read the secret order that Prince George gave to the adjutant, and then let them into the palace.
Under the guidance of the adjutant, the coachman drove towards the west wing of Buckingham Palace, where Prince George and the recalcitrant Duke of Rand are now facing each other.
When he arrived at the west wing, Evan clearly felt the air was full of tension. The five-step and one-armed soldiers were all elite divisions under Prince George.
The three of them got out of the car at a distance of twenty steps from the side door. The guards at the door probably had instructions to greet them as soon as they came and lead them towards the building go up.
"Where is the prince now?" Lord Oram couldn't help asking the guard.
This bodyguard has always been Prince George's personal bodyguard, so he has a good relationship with Lord Oram, so he did not avoid suspicion, and immediately replied: "The prince is on the third floor, and the Duke of Rand occupies the The room where the old king collected famous paintings and treasures, now things are very tricky."
Lord Oram couldn't help raising his eyebrows. The old king was very fond of oil paintings and treasures, and he himself was a very happy person. The famous paintings and treasures he collected were priceless treasures in the world. And according to Lord Orlam's knowledge, some of the paintings and treasures he collected were the dowry brought by Prince George's mother back then. If the Duke of Rand is really crazy and does something, it's not just a part of the country. Large losses, I am afraid that Prince George will also be very sad.
"This is outrageous, who put him in." King Richard was not only a vain man, but a miser, and his treasure room, except for his own George The prince has only entered once, and the guards are very strict.
When he asked the guard, he also had a bitter face: "My lord, I think the Duke of Rand must have been prepared. When His Royal Highness led the soldiers to occupy Buckingham Palace, he would He immediately fled here with others. He had already bought the guard at the door, and he had stolen the key to the treasure room. He took advantage of the chaos in Buckingham Palace to escape into that room. Now he is in the room. Sprinkled with kerosene, if the prince does anything bad, he will burn down the room."
His life is also wanted now.
The three of them quickly went up to the third floor. The narrow passage was blocked by soldiers for a long time. Prince George stood at the end of the passage with a serious expression.
This is the first time Evan has met Prince George. He is tall and thin, with dazzling blond curly hair. He was stained with blood, but it did not affect his gentle and refined temperament at all.
This person doesn't seem aggressive at all, but who would have thought that it was this person who killed his father and seized the throne.
"His Royal Highness."
Lord Orlam and Duke Wilson both stepped forward and bowed to Prince George, and Evan followed suit, but he kept observing Prince George's expression from the corner of his eye.
When he saw the three of them, his originally solemn face was immediately dyed with a slight smile, he immediately stepped forward and helped Lord Orlam and Duke Wilson stand up.
"I didn't make arrangements this time, and I almost hurt you. I'm really sorry." His tone was gentle and self-blaming, with a look of guilt on his face.
He doesn't seem to be a real high-ranking person, even though the throne is only one step away from him now, he still regards them as ordinary friends.
But neither Lord Orlam nor Duke Wilson dared to regard him as an ordinary friend.
Sincerely, as if the person who was pale and desperate when he knew the news at that time was not him.
Prince George smiled gently, then turned to Duke Wilson: "Uncle Charles, I have lost you this time, and I will thank you for your generosity this time for the rest of my life."
When Duke Wilson faced Prince George, his originally cold and arrogant expression finally subsided a lot, he nodded reservedly, and whispered: "It is my honor to be able to serve you. ."
From this moment on, the young man in front of him is no longer the child behind him, he has become the king of this country, and he is his subject.
Prince George looked deeply at his unruly uncle. In fact, in his mind, this uncle was the most difficult for all nobles to deal with. He wasn't that close either, but he didn't expect that at this time, the first person to support him was actually this uncle.
Prince George's mood is very mixed.
