Macho Wars

In fact, these congressmen cannot be blamed for their dumbfounded expressions. For nearly forty years after Sidney XIV was in power, the crown prince has not been established.The old emperor took this thing as the "final reward" and kept hanging in front of the princes of the empire, so that they never dared to relax.

However, when they asked Levins, who presided over the meeting, which prince was so lucky to receive his dying favor, everyone was surprised by the answer.

The nineteenth prince, Andy Sidney!?

The brain reacted quickly and already understood what was going on, but these people looked at the gendarmes of the Senate with live ammunition around the venue, and they were all very wise and did not say anything.

After three consecutive voting meetings, the Senate, which has always been widely ridiculed as the "Severe Procrastination Patient's Association", has completed the review of the 19th prince with unprecedented efficiency.

Levins returned to the palace before dawn with the results of the meeting and brought the good news to Queen Susan.Next, they only need to announce the news of the new emperor's ascension to the throne, and then proceed to hold the ascension ceremony for the crown prince.

Everything seemed to be going well, and the queen immediately ordered someone to invite her Royal Highness.After all, the little prince Andy is still a minor, so he did not attend the dinner yesterday, but was sent back to the bedroom to sleep early.Although big things happened last night, he didn't notify the young prince, so Andy didn't know anything.

When the little prince came to ask for peace behind her mother, Susan couldn't hide her excitement, and immediately took her son's little hand forward and pulled him to the throne in the middle of the hall.Seeing this, the little prince hurriedly wanted to get up, but was pressed back hard by the queen.

"Mother, this is the position of the father."

"My child, this position is now yours."

In the puzzled gaze of the little prince Andy, his third uncle Levins had already knelt down in front of him with a vote of ministers, and shouted "Long live your Royal Highness" together.

Outside the palace at this time, as the royal family's obituary was issued, the entire emperor was in an uproar no matter the common people or the nobles.Everyone knows that the old emperor is very old, and people of this age are prone to health problems.But no one thought that the old emperor would die so suddenly, it made people feel unprepared.

In the minds of ordinary people in the empire, Sidney XIV was an emperor with countless minor problems, but absolutely worthy of respect.

During the years of his reign, although the empire has fought 17 large and medium-sized wars with a strength of more than 100,000 troops, but fortunately, the status of the civilian class has also been steadily improved, and the status of the civilian class has also been steadily improved. Room for upside.

Therefore, when the bad news came, many people in the imperial capital took to the streets with white flowers spontaneously, facing the direction of the imperial palace in deep silence.

During this period, the garrison around the imperial capital can be said to be in a state of bewilderment.First, the imperial royal family, the military command and the central military department successively issued instructions to the garrison units at the division level, requiring them to stay in the station and not to act without authorization.

Then came the bad news of the emperor’s death, and the news that the 19th prince was established as the crown prince followed. It is believed that these big news will soon be spread to every corner of the empire through various communication channels.

At this point in the development of the strange situation, many people have already understood that the Senate seems to want to interfere in the succession of the throne, taking advantage of the chaos to let the only underage 19th prince ascend the throne.The entire emperor has this idea and ability, that is, their group.

Regarding such blatant intervention by the Senate, naturally not everyone chose to turn a blind eye. Several ministers successively asked to enter the palace to meet the queen who is currently presiding over the overall situation in name. Some people simply asked, why did your majesty be so good? Up?

However, the queen refused all the audience, and everything will be done after the funeral of the old emperor and the enthronement ceremony of the new emperor.There were individual impulsive ministers who tried to break through, but were captured by the Janissaries on the spot.

So some people retreated pretending to be difficult, and then turned straight to the camp of a certain garrison.

In the entire Central Military Region, there are more than 20 divisions and more than 300,000 people. Naturally, such a huge unit will not be an iron barrel. There are also many factions inside, including some high-level generals who support a certain prince.

But most of these aristocratic generals did not act rashly, for fear that if one did not get it right, and put themselves and their family on the guilty of "launching a coup", then it would be more than worthwhile to be punished.

So including Dragon, almost everyone is watching the changes. They are waiting for someone who can preside over the overall situation to return, and this person is Howard who left the imperial capital the day before yesterday.

At this time Howard was still on the train to the Northwest Military Region and had not yet arrived at his destination.Fortunately, there was a high-power guided communication machine on the military train, and the news from the Imperial Capital was transmitted through layers, and finally reached Howard at 8 am on the second day of the incident.

Howard was having breakfast in the train cafeteria. When the adjutant read the telegram documents to him, the military god who had always been unchallenged could not help being shocked and dropped the spoon on the ground.

"What are you talking about! Your Majesty died?"

"Yes, yes, Your Excellency Commander."

"Give me the telegram!"

Howard eagerly stepped forward and snatched the telegram. There were only a few lines on it. When he read the last line, his entire face was already gloomy as if it were covered with dark clouds.He slapped the telegram on the table angrily, and yelled at him extremely rarely.

"A bunch of clever stupid pigs! Do they think that politicians' game rules are followed by everyone? Idiots! A bunch of hopeless idiots!"

After a lot of scolding, Howard was sullen and paced back and forth in the carriage. The adjutant and guards on the side looked at each other. They had never seen the commander so angry.

At this time, Howard, who pondered for a moment, ordered the adjutant.

"Notify the conductor, we will immediately turn around and return to the imperial capital!"

Chapter 407 Meat Eaters

The sudden death of King Sidney XIV not only allowed the aristocrats' desire for power that had been deliberately contained for many years to be released in an instant, but also exposed the country's semi-feudal and semi-deformed nature.In the entire imperial capital, many forces are ready to move.

The Senate is busy creating a fait accompli. They plan to use two days to let the nineteenth prince complete the entire enthronement process that would have taken 17 days to complete.

At the same time, on the side of the First Marine Division, Dragon, who was in the division headquarters, looked gloomy.Twelve hours have passed since the death of the old emperor.The teacher Kane, who was invited to attend the royal wedding banquet, still did not return. It seemed that he was detained in the palace by the royal guards along with other guests present at the time.

Dragoon realized that something was wrong, and while trying to send his subordinates into the city to inquire about the news, he also arranged for his confidants to pick up his wives and children living in the city and take them away from the dangerous imperial capital.

But the sent subordinates quickly brought back bad news. There was already a Janitor who took them away first. Not only was it Dragoon, but the entire Central Military Region, as long as they were officers above regiment level who had family members living in the Imperial Capital. , Basically received this treatment.

The family members of these soldiers were "guests" in the palace. The royal family provided delicious food and drinks. The officers were also allowed to talk to them, except that they could not leave the palace without authorization.

The high-level explanation for this is that the current situation is unstable, and the emperor is likely to have explosive terrorists, threatening the safety of the families of these officers, and the imperial family will take them into the palace to stay temporarily for better protection.

The officers naturally understood the nature of this kind of protection, but they had no choice but to put me as a fish, and they could only endure it first.

In such a tight atmosphere, the 19th prince hurriedly completed the enthronement ceremony and became Sidney XV.The Senate could not wait to announce the news to the whole country as soon as possible, declaring the "righteousness" in its hands.

But Howard, who hurried back to the imperial capital, was a step too late in the end, unable to stop them.

Originally Howard was in time, but the special train he was riding was repeatedly obstructed on the road, which delayed him a lot of time.

Howard realized that someone was preventing him from returning to the imperial capital, so he witty and secretly changed cars halfway.As a result, the special train "accidentally" derailed at a distance of 400 kilometers from the imperial capital. Although Howard managed to escape the catastrophe, it was a pity that he arrived at the imperial capital one step too late.

So he rushed into the palace in anger, benefiting from the privileges granted by King Sidney XIV, no matter whether the Imperial Guard or the Royal Guards, no one dared to stand up and stop the famous Imperial Army God.

When he strode to the imperial garden of the harem, Susan, who had been promoted to the empress dowager, was looking at the palace painter waiting for his emperor's son.The underage Andy is wearing a gorgeous dress, holding a scepter and a sword on his waist.But everyone can see that the little majesty doesn't like his outfit.

Howard stepped up to the table and slapped the table fiercely, and shouted at his little sister who had always loved him with unprecedented anger.

"Are you crazy! Do you know what you are doing?"

"Ah! What are you doing, eldest brother?"

Susan, who was suddenly startled, wanted to have an attack, but when she turned her head, it was Howard who immediately recovered her anger.

Susan has always respected her eldest brother.In her childhood memories, Howard is also a brother and father, and she has always been very fond of her, the youngest sister in the family, and Susan has always been proud of her excellent to almost perfect brother.Even if she is now a 50-year-old old woman, she will habitually call her "Brother" when she sees Howard.

However, the amiable brother in Susan's memory was angry at this moment and looked very angry.

"What's wrong with you? Elder brother!"

"You ask me what's wrong? See what you have done? Are you trying to kill your biological son?"

"I hurt him? I did all this for his own good!"

Susan was at a loss and annoyed when Howard was suddenly rushed back, and even scolded her for killing her most precious son.She really didn't understand why Howard had made such a big fire at herself, and the words were so ugly.

Andy, who was not far away, saw that his mother and uncle seemed to be quarreling, and he hurried forward to try to persuade him to fight.
