Wan Yuli's 2d Travels

Seeing that Bude seemed to be moved, Wan Yuri added:

"What's more, when the rebel army is approaching the city, can you expect the minister to resist until the last moment?"

For a moment, Bude's face was very exciting, and finally turned into a touch of sadness and a long sigh.

"Old man... would like to hear the details."

——————————————————————————————————————

At the same time, the emperor's bedroom.

The precious incense quietly exudes a calming aroma in the corner, and the gorgeous curtains are drawn heavily to block out all the harsh light and heat.

The maids and guards who were densely packed were all driven outside, leaving only one standing person and one lying person in the huge palace.

The person standing is Princess Seleja; while the person lying down is her younger brother, the most powerful man in the empire in theory, who is now unconscious due to illness, His Majesty the Emperor.

"Everything will be fine, my brother."

Repeating comforting words like a dream, Selesia wandered around the palace aimlessly.

Her face was pale, her eye sockets were sunken, and the aura she once had on the battlefield and pointing the country in the court had disappeared without a trace.

But Selesia herself thinks it's no big deal, after all, she is not a general or an eldest princess listening to politics behind the curtain, but just an older sister who is worried about her younger brother's safety.

A month ago, almost shortly after Estes assigned the three beast warriors to attack Jerok, the little emperor suddenly became seriously ill and passed out on the throne under the watchful eyes of many officials!

At first, this matter was strictly blocked by Seleja. At that time, she was still able to keep her spirits up, suppressed her worries about the little emperor, and continued to deal with the minister.

However, no matter what methods the best doctors in the empire used, the little emperor's illness just didn't get better.

What made Selesia even more worried was that every time she came back from court, the female officer in charge of taking care of her would always tell her that His Majesty had woken up briefly, and would ask her where she was every time she woke up.

——"Your Majesty is really a kind person. Whenever I answer 'Your Highness is dealing with state affairs', His Majesty will smile and ask you to tell Your Highness that he is in good health. Don't worry."

This kind of thing happened several times in a row, which made Seleja's heart ache.Coupled with the fact that the little emperor's condition was serious, Seleja didn't even go to court anymore, but supported the former minister Qiao Li as an agent, and plunged into the little emperor's bedroom to take care of the little emperor. daily life.

Afterwards, it was Wan Yuli's "framing" that caused the Titans army to be transferred far away, and the princess faction was completely suppressed under the onslaught of the ministers, even though there were still talented people like Jory and Sauer struggling to support them, The situation remains extremely dangerous.

However, Seleja chose to seal herself in this small palace.

The jade hand lightly brushed the little emperor's forehead, where the temperature was still hot.

Exhaling a foul breath, Selesia took a towel soaked in cold water, and carefully covered the little emperor's forehead.

"Perhaps whether it's Bud or Jory, even Zecilia, they probably think that what I have done is like the last foolish king."

After doing this, Selesia, who felt a little relieved, thought to herself mockingly.

She can fully understand the thoughts of those people, and she is even sure that if she and Zehilia were to switch positions, and if she saw her lord so decadent, she probably would have left long ago.

Compared with this, Zeshilia's performance can be called an example of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism!

"But... the moths of the empire and the rebels are all good, the younger brother is the most important..."

After moving a stool to the bed, Seleja sat down with her cheeks leaning on her cheeks, quietly watching the little emperor's sleeping face.

Although it was rumored by the outside world as a faint and tyrant, to Selesia, this young man with a beautiful sleeping face was the most important treasure bestowed to her by God.

Not as the eldest princess, but as DOLLs from the benchmark world. Compared with the natives of this world, they are almost equivalent to "gods". For the participants, it is just a matter of willfulness. In order to protect their relatives, they choose to fight with the world. Enemy... Is there something wrong with such a thing?

This is the voice from the heart of DOLLs named Hansel under the skin named "Seleja".

Compared to the half-body "Grete" who covets her all the time, a real relative is the desire hidden deep in her heart.

And a younger brother who regarded her as a reliable older sister completely captured her heart.

"No matter what, I will find a way to cure you!"

Selesia said softly.

At this time, there was a heavy knock on the door, followed by General Bude's voice as blunt as pig iron:

"Chen Bude, I have something important to discuss with Your Highness."

"What's the matter?"

Seleja frowned slightly.

"I invite you to raise troops, punish the ministers, and the Qing emperor is on the side!"

211. 200. Coup

How did General Bude persuade Selesia and what he said to cheer up the depressed Selesia, no one knows except the person involved.

But judging from the results alone, his persuasion was very effective.

The imperial forest army surrounded the headquarters of the guards, and divided their troops to close the gates of the imperial capital, cutting off internal and external communication; after that, countless crows flew over the high walls, carrying the princess's will, towards the distant towns that had lost contact.

For the residents of the imperial capital who had undergone the ultimate test, this sudden action caused a little commotion at first, but they quickly closed their doors skillfully. The whole family crowded around the dining table, facing the soul of their ancestors Or some crude idol praying.

As for the civil and military officials and nobles who have more sources of information and contacts—whether it is the princess faction, the minister faction, or even the wall-riding faction, they were all caught off guard by the sudden actions of the princess and the general.And after it took 5 minutes, maybe 10 minutes to digest the situation, these people also divided into three factions-some fled to the city with their families; some hid at home as ostriches; The cronies of the Guard were involved in the coup.

So since the city gate was closed in the afternoon, small-scale battles almost covered the entire imperial capital, and people screamed and died every second.The funny thing is, whether it is the soldiers under the command of the eldest princess or the hardcore ministers,

The two people who draw their swords at each other and face each other coldly, may have sworn allegiance under the banner of the empire at the same time just a day ago; and the slogans they shouted during the battle were "For the Empire" and "Down with Rebel".

Therefore, such a scene often appeared in the chaos: two noble private soldiers belonging to different factions met at the end of the alley.After a moment of silence, the two called out each other's name at the same time, and then stabbed each other's vitals with deadly weapons.

The sound of the body being pierced sounded, and one of them fell down weakly covering the wound, while the other quickly drew out the blood-stained long sword, closed his eyes for the dead, and then slightly lowered his head to mourn for each other—they might have been in the same Serving in the Legion, they may also be like-minded friends, but now they have to kill each other because of their positions.

After doing this, the soldiers who survived by chance continued to charge into the distance with their swords - there were countless soldiers in the same situation as him, carrying out fearless and senseless killings.

In the evening, the imperial forest army finally defeated the chaotic but intensive counterattack of the minister's faction, surrounded all the remnants in the minister's mansion, and completely controlled the situation.

Under such circumstances, Princess Selesia put on the military uniform again, and led the guards to the minister's last lair, preparing to send her old opponent off for the last time.

——————————————————————————————————————

"Your Highness, why did you come here! A lot of chaotic parties are still active, it's too dangerous!"

Seeing the guard of honor of the eldest princess from a distance, Sibiya flicked the spear in her hand, and several mercenaries dressed in foreign nationalities fell to the ground howling.

Ever since the minister's mansion was surrounded by Conscience faction and General Budde's subordinates, there was no need for anyone to give orders, and all the soldiers spontaneously launched a fierce attack on the place where the minister was.

Everyone present knew that with the minister's character of vengeance, as long as he escaped this catastrophe, they would all die, and they would even be implicated in the nine clans.

So in a very short period of time, the troops led by Sibiya broke through the first major gate, stepping on numerous corpses, and pushed deeper.

However, at this juncture, she actually saw the eldest princess!

The cheers of the surrounding soldiers made her frown even more.Unlike these Qiu Ba who only know how to kill people, as the daughter of a former minister, Sibiya knows very well that at this moment when the overall situation has been decided, the encouragement brought by the general's Seleja's visit to the front line is far greater than that of the former minister. The downside of her being raided is less.

But now the most indispensable thing in the mansion of the minister is all kinds of traps and killers!

But there is one thing she forgot, Seleja herself is also a warrior with high martial arts skills!

I saw Selesia calmly drew out her sword, and walked on the battlefield like a stroll in the courtyard.During the flickering of the sword light, the foreign mercenaries who had held Sibiya and the others to death were slaughtered in an instant, while Selesia calmly put her sword back into its sheath, as if she had completed a trivial matter.

"Your Highness... so strong!"

After seeing Selesia's powerful strength, Sibiya's original nervousness immediately turned to admiration for Selesia.In other words, since Selesia supported her father Jory to return to the imperial capital to fight against the ministers, Sibiya regarded Selesia as her idol, and now that this idol has shown such a versatile side, it is even more so. Inadvertently captured the hearts of young girls who were not deeply involved in the world.

However, Selesia didn't pay much attention to her, but stood alone in the middle of the empty courtyard, as if waiting for something.

"...Your Highness?"

Sibiya cautiously stepped forward to talk to her.

"You are Qing Qiaoli's daughter, right? It is commendable to fight for the empire so far. Please let your people be responsible for the security around you, and don't let the rioters affect the safety of the citizens."

Then there was a polite but distant response.

Seeing Sibiya's bleak figure gradually retreating from the courtyard, Selesia sighed helplessly.

In normal times, she might be happy to have a chat with a beautiful little fan girl, but now she is not in the mood.

As for the reason, it is naturally the sudden attack on the minister's faction, or the coup d'état is too smooth.

Even though Bude had advised her many times not to come to the front in person in the palace, Selesia still came out of guard against the minister who looked like a fat pig but was actually as cunning as a fox.

At least you have to cut off that person's head with your own hands to be reconciled!

What's more, the current empire, even if the coup d'etat was won under her leadership, could no longer withstand any consumption.

On the way here, Seleja carefully observed the houses along the way.

It was different from the scene when she first entered the imperial capital a few months ago, when the people lined the streets to welcome her. The doors of every house were closed, and the citizens hid behind the walls, and cast indifferent gazes at her car through the cracks in the windows and doors.

Selesia understood that the people were tired of the troubled times.Maybe they still love Selesia as a person, but it's hard to expect them to support all her actions as they did back then.

In addition, the current situation outside the imperial capital is unclear... Although the ravens have been released to all parts of the country like a dead sheep, according to Selesia's own estimation, one-third of the cities can still respond to the emperor's call. It is the luck of misfortune.

Under such disadvantages, the support of the army is necessary.

This was another reason why she had ventured to the chancellor's mansion.

As for what to do next...

"Your Highness, Ornest has been captured!"

Heavy footsteps came from the opposite side, it was Bud.

I saw that the general's body was almost covered with flesh and blood, and he was holding four human heads in his hands.

Seleja could vaguely see that it was the head of the Raksha Four Ghosts.

"You caught Ernest? Are you sure it's the real thing?"

Out of caution, Selesia asked.

"This old man has been an official with Ornest for decades, even if that guy turns into ashes, I can still recognize him!"

Bud replied loudly.

"Why didn't you kill him?"

Thinking of the complete defeat of her long-standing political opponent, Seleja excitedly walked around the yard a few times, and then suddenly remembered this question.

"The man said... that he knew what His Majesty's condition was, but he only told you."

"This guy... damn it!"
