Hearing Alsace's words, Luca frowned and tried to think hard. After pondering for a long time, he shook his head.

"This Sherlock your Majesty is talking about... I really don't know him. As for the other subordinate who betrayed you, I have never heard of it."

"Then I'll replace you with someone else."

Of course Arthas knew that Luca couldn't agree so simply.

After all, the other party has already taken in Sherlock and Phil, as well as Elsa and others, so they must be ready to challenge themselves.

"Elsa, Elsa, the one who murdered my father, has returned to the Imperial Academy, right? She also brought a group of disloyal rebels with her. You can hand them over, right?"

"...I'm sorry, Elsa is a student of Imperial College. We have registered her when she comes back. She is indeed on campus. Although it is a holiday now, we will not stop students who want to stay in school. As for other people, I will There is no information to provide, or I don’t know them at all.”

Seeing Luca's confused look, Arthas laughed out loud.

"Dean Luka, no matter how much you pretend to be stupid, it's not like this."

He said this and looked at Luka with a hint of menace in his eyes.

"Let me tell you one more thing. I entered the Imperial College as the Emperor of the Empire to talk to you about this matter. Please know why the Imperial College is named 'Empire'."

When Luca heard what Alsace said, he knew that Alsace was a little unhappy now, so he quickly comforted him and said:

"Of course I know that we will never forget the royal family's kindness to the Imperial College, but the current situation is special after all..."

"Let me say it again."

Seeing that Luca was still preparing to use the drag technique, Alsace continued:

"My power as the emperor is unlimited. How many people from the royal family are on the Imperial Academy's board of directors, and how many people are really willing to support you? I don't think you don't understand. If you still want to stay in this position honestly, If you retire, don’t cause trouble for me.”

"Of course I won't cause any trouble for Your Majesty."

Luca saw that Alsace was clearly threatening him, and his tone became much stiffer than the deliberate flattery at the beginning.

"It's just that your Majesty, you should also know that the reason why Imperial College has achieved its current status is inseparable from our efforts. Before everything is settled, Imperial College will protect every student. In the same way, Your Majesty, as the college Former students, of course, can enter and leave the academy at will. You can find the 'suspects' you think are in the academy. As long as you can convince them to leave the academy, we will not stop them. "

"So, those court magicians and the two people who betrayed me are not from the Imperial Academy. Are you going to slap the emperor in the face in order to protect them, Academy President?"

"Didn't you also lock up the most proud student of Imperial College? Isn't it very clear who is slapping whom in the face?"

Seeing that the meeting was fruitless, Alsace stood up.

"Your Majesty, you haven't had your tea yet."

Luca said so.

Hearing this, Alsace picked up the tea cup and then put it down.

"It's not cold yet."

With that said, he opened the door and left the office of Dean Luca.

After walking out of the Imperial Academy and returning to the palace, the first thing Arthas did was to smash some decorations in the palace.

This move frightened the maids and guards so much that they did not dare to breathe again, for fear that Alsace would pour out his anger on them next.

"Why, why is everyone going against me!" Alsace shouted loudly in his room.

"No one believes me. What do they know? Do they know the truth?"

"I have also been wronged. Why do they think I did something wrong when I was wronged, but they would choose to believe others when it was someone else!"

Arthas was very puzzled, and his heart seemed to be about to collapse.

But then, Alsace was hugged from behind by Rosalind.

After Rosalin heard the sound coming from the next room, she hurriedly came here, but then she saw Alsace who was almost emotionally collapsed.

She said that she didn't want to lose, so after setting foot on the Alsace ship, she had only one goal.

That is to win. No matter what, this boat cannot capsize.

There is no doubt that Alsace, the helmsman of the ship, is the key to whether the ship can capsize. Rosalin must take care of his mentality no matter what.

"Your Majesty, you are not wrong. It is them who are wrong. They just don't understand you."

"Rosalyn, can you understand me?" Alsace calmed down a little after listening to Rosalind's words. Then he turned back to look at the girl behind him and murmured.

When Rosalin saw Alsace like this, she felt helpless and regretful in her heart, but in the end, she couldn't show it on her face.

When she realized that Alsace's character was not suitable for becoming emperor, it was already too late.

When he was a prince, Alsace did all the things he was interested in and did quite well, so he was quite confident. Alsace, who was high-spirited at that time, fascinated thousands of people just like Orson later. The imperial girl, Rosalin also fell in love with Alsace who was ten years older than her at that time.

However, when she came into contact with Alsace until now, she realized that Alsace's confidence and calmness were always because he had always had a tailwind.

His ability to withstand pressure is quite poor.

Even though he has good abilities, once he falls into a disadvantage, he will doubt himself, put pressure on himself, and eventually collapse.

So he is only suitable for fighting with favorable winds, and he can fight very beautifully with favorable winds. Half a year ago, Arthas was always in favorable winds, so no one could understand his weakness.

People like Arthas can win a hundred times but not lose once.

Before Odysseus passed away, Arthas had a superficial understanding of the emperor. He believed that as long as he became the emperor, everyone would naturally believe in him, obey him, and take what he said as the truth.

But when the current situation was in front of him, he was confused and collapsed.

However, when Rosaline understood, it was too late.

What she could do was to help Arthas adjust his mentality so that he could face it with a better mentality.

"Of course I can understand your majesty, your majesty, you want to be like your father... No, you want to be a greater emperor than your father, so you have been working hard, but you put too much pressure on yourself. In addition, things have not gone well these days, so you seem a little embarrassed."

"But in fact, you are just unlucky. When this period of bad luck passes, you will still become a greater emperor."

Listening to Rosalin's comfort, Arthas felt better, and then he asked:

"Then... Rosalin, can you tell me what I should do now?"

When Rosalin saw that Arthas completely trusted her and even placed his hopes on her, she felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.

Does Rosalin like Arthas? Of course she likes him. When she was young, Arthas left an indelible impression in Rosalin's mind. After growing up, Rosalin also successfully contacted Arthas. At this time, Arthas did not have a partner.

How could she not like Arthas?

But compared to Arthas, she found that she liked the powerful Arthas more. It would be good to marry him, but the best situation would be to become his partner as the queen. Therefore, she had been encouraging Arthas not to give up the fight for the throne and to hold firmly in her hands what originally belonged to her.

Now she was happy to see that Arthas could completely put down his mind and trust her.

But this also meant that Arthas was not confident.

If you have lost confidence in yourself and need to rely on the help and guidance of others to move forward, then it would be a bit of a pipe dream to talk about success.

Rosalin was already thinking about how to help Arthas regain his confidence.

She thought for a while, and then said:

"Your Majesty, I have an idea. Since the Imperial Academy wants to protect its students, we let them protect them, but we can create some events in the academy, let the students petition together, and drive the people we want out of the Imperial Academy, wouldn't that be good?"

Hearing this idea, Arthas nodded.

"You are right, I was negligent before and forgot that I could do this."

"Besides that, I have another idea."

Rosalin continued.

"Tell me about it."

Alsace asked.

"Well... since the court is unwilling to try Orson, we will give the judicial power to a new institution, an institution that is completely under our control. In this way, in addition to trying Orson, it can also be used to try other enemies after the civil unrest is quelled."

Rosalin's suggestion made Alsace's eyes light up.

Similar to his idea of ​​firing the chief justice today, Alsace's original idea was to change the chief justice, but now it seems that it would be better to directly take back the judicial power and completely control it in the hands of the royal family.

"I also thought of the name of this institution, and named it the Tribunal. Because it is a new institution, the process can be set less rigorously, and there is more room for manipulation."

The rules are dead, and people are alive, because in this way, talents can exploit loopholes in the rules and make profits for themselves.

But if the rules themselves are alive, then it will be easier for people who use and interpret the rules to make profits.

Rosalin's idea can play a certain role in the current chaotic situation, but in the long run, doing so will almost uproot the contract spirit and legal awareness of the empire that had originally improved somewhat.

Just when there was a little seed of rule of law, it was uprooted and burned to ashes.

If it were put in the future, Rosaline's idea would definitely be criticized for several pages.

But at this moment, Arthas also felt that this idea was quite ingenious. It was not bad to be able to cleverly avoid the original institution and arrest and interrogate his enemies under the new institution.

Then, Arthas hugged Rosaline, kissed her on the cheek, and then said:

"You are worthy of being my good queen, then I will leave this matter to you!"

"Yes!"

Rosaline nodded, and was also full of energy.

...

On the other side, the police station.

"Sherlock didn't come back?" Orson looked at Owen beside him and asked.

Owen shook his head when he heard this, and the action of handling documents also paused.

"No, when they left the court, the Imperial College sent people to pick them up. For their safety, I still arranged them to the Imperial College."

"Then guess, if the emperor knew you did this, would he dismiss you?"

Orson asked half-jokingly.

Who knew that when Owen heard this, instead of worrying, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"If this is really the case, I would be happy."

He said so.

"I was originally just a high-level knight, and what I need to do every day is to think about how to improve my martial arts. In this position, I need to think about too many things every day, especially in the recent period, His Majesty has reminded me more than once I."

"I think... if I am sitting in this position to violate the original intention of this position, then it is better to fire me directly, so that I can live a more comfortable life."

"It's people like you who can stand and talk without back pain."

Orson said this as if he was joking with Owen.

"You are an eighth-level military attache. As long as you are not locked up, you can live a comfortable life anywhere. If your current position is replaced by someone who has no fighting ability, no other livelihood skills, and is used to pampering, you Let’s see if he is willing to resign.”

"It's useless for you to mock me for pretending to be noble. What if someone like me has an eighth-level ability?"

Owen sighed.

"The best I can do is live my own life. I don't even know who my colleagues were captured, and I don't even know who released the criminals who were under strict guard."

"Even if I release you next, His Majesty will lock me in again, and I may not even be able to live a good life."

"It's what you said. I can live a happy life wherever I am. If it's really what you said, I would like to thank you."

Listening to Owen's words, Orson also felt a rare sense of sympathy.

"You... must have had a hard time. A person with no background like you must have suffered a lot to achieve your current status."

"..."

Owen fell silent.

The location the two of them were in was Irving's office. After so many things happened, Irving no longer had the absolute support for Alsace that he had before.

If Orson ran away now, Owen could still take the initiative to plead guilty.

At this time, there was a knock on the office door, and a guard walked in from outside.

"Report to Chief Owen, a group of forbidden troops came outside the security station, saying they want to transfer the prisoner Orson to the palace."

"Oh, now you don't care about calling me a suspect, but just call me a prisoner?"

Orson laughed sarcastically, then stood up.

Unexpectedly, Owen also stood up. He came to Orson and patted Orson on the shoulder.

"You sit here first."

Then he looked at the guard at the door.

"You take me there and I'll go out and talk to them."
