Just as the guard carried Leon away from the side door, the Chief Attendant of the Eastern Palace walked into the room quickly.

"Your Highness, the clearing has been completed. Dr. Hassan's place is also ready."

Raphael nodded: "How is the emperor?"

"Still in a coma. The Queen and Prince Louis are accompanying him. Dr. Hassan said that the operation can start at his place anytime, just waiting for us to send the donor body to him."

"Let him wait." The prince sneered, "I don't want him to really hurt my beautiful little Leon. Where's the Duke?"

"We are having dinner, as we planned."

The prince tore open the neckline of his shirt and ruffled his messy hair.In the crystal mirror on the wall, he has a beautiful face, but is as pale as a ghost, his eyes are sunken, and there are two clusters of will-o'-the-wisps jumping long distances inside.

Raphael walked out of the restaurant, went straight to the room where the Duke of Oran was, and staggered into it.

"Anthony, something happened to Leon—"

The Duke of Oran was unaffected by the emperor's illness. With fine wine in hand and a beautiful woman in his arms, he was flirting with the disheveled female officer on his lap.On the contrary, the female officer jumped three feet high by Raphael's shock, and the Duke's face was flushed from the overturned wine.

"What's the matter? Why do you look like this?" The Duke was furious.

"Leon was taken away by his people!" Panting, Raphael followed the hand extended by the Duke of Oran, and fell into his arms.

"Who took Leon?" The Duke looked puzzled, and lifted Raphael up, "Isn't this the palace? Leon is 20 years old, and he is not a child who can be seduced away with a lollipop." .Who will take him? The Praetorian-"

"It was the guards who took Leon away." Raphael grabbed the Duke's lapel, "Father did it! I have always objected, but he is already crazy! He ordered me to bring Leon to him , I was about to secretly tell this child the truth. But my father's people actually tampered with our meal... I can only watch the guards take Leon away."

"I didn't understand." The Duke of Oran reacted very slowly, "What exactly is uncle going to do when he summons Leon?"

"He...he wants Leon's body!" Raphael's facial features were distorted in pain, and he spoke the truth with difficulty, "It's too late to elaborate, we must first find a way to rescue Leon. One step later, God knows who haha What will Dr. Sang do to him!"

Raphael dragged the Duke of Oran and ran out.The Duke of Oran finally came back to his senses, took a long leg, and instead walked a few steps in front of Raphael, and walked towards the emperor's bedroom.

"You have to make it clear to me, Raphael. What is uncle going to do to my son?" The Duke of Oran walked like the wind with a serious expression on his face.

Raphael chased after him out of breath: "We didn't tell the truth earlier, what happened to my father was incurable muscle and nerve necrosis. But that doctor Hassan fooled him, saying that the brain can be transplanted into a new body ... On the day of Guang Ji Ri, Leon was so outstanding that his father took a fancy to his body..."

"Have you been drinking, Raphael?" The Duke of Oran tugged on Raphael's arm, his eyes widened. "How stupid do I have to be to believe such absurd things?"

"What His Royal Highness said is true, Your Excellency the Duke." The attendant hurriedly said, "Since His Majesty the Emperor fell ill, he has become increasingly...losing his mind. The Crown Prince has been trying his best to hide it for him. But the Emperor is quite stubborn, Don't listen to anyone."

"I thought I could make him get rid of this crazy idea, Anthony." Raphael was heartbroken, "I didn't tell you before, because I thought there was room for redemption. But I didn't expect father to be really crazy Today the doctor said that he can only be paralyzed in bed in the future, he was greatly stimulated, so he decided to have an operation immediately!"

The Duke of Oran cursed under his breath and kicked open the door to the master suite.

The corridor inside the door was actually full of royal guards with real guns and ammunition.

"Please stop, my lord!" The captain of the Imperial Guard sternly shouted, "Martial law is here tonight, and His Majesty will not receive any visitors. Please go back."

"Then I'll go talk to my father." Raphael said.

"Neither can you, Your Highness." The captain said.

"I was fine just now!" Raphael exclaimed.

"Your Majesty just ordered you to be included in the forbidden list." The captain bowed, "I'm sorry, Your Highness. We are also obeying orders, please understand."

This undoubtedly echoes all Raphael's previous words.

The Duke of Oran said angrily, and took two steps forward: "I want to see His Majesty. I heard that he took my son away..."

With two swishes, the imperial guard neatly raised the gun in his hand, aiming at the Duke's chest with countless photon guns flashing blue light.

"Calm down, Anthony!" Raphael hurriedly dragged the Duke of Oran back, "I said, father is serious. It's useless for us to force ourselves like this!"

"My son is in his hands!" the Duke of Oran roared. "If what you said is true, in a while, Leon's brain should be dug out by that doctor and put on a plate. What do you want me to do?" Calm down? Pull two petals to match his brain?"

Raphael and the attendants forcibly pulled the furious Duke out of the door.

"Listen to me, Anthony! We still have other ways!" Raphael looked into the duke's eyes with a serious expression almost unprecedented.

"The imperial guards only obey the emperor's orders, unless the emperor himself is diagnosed as incapacitated. We must find a way to let the three parties, the parliament, the Supreme Court, and the Coleman clan elders, collectively make this ruling. At that time, I, as Prince, you will be able to take over the imperial guards and terminate this operation!"

"Then we have to wait until the year of the monkey?" the Duke of Oran said.

Raphael stared into the duke's blue eyes, and said slowly: "When my father decided to have the operation, I sent someone to invite the speaker, the justice, and the elders."

The Duke was stunned: "Are you prepared?"

"Yes!" Raphael said, "If you served the father who was crazy about changing his body for a year or so, you would be the same as me. He is confused, but I am not. This is a man who can destroy the whole world." The royal family's mistake! I just didn't expect that he would guard me and attack Leon directly. It was my fault for not protecting this child well..."

"What should I do?" the Duke asked in a deep voice.

Raphael remained calm, but his tense shoulders were slightly relaxed: "I need your help. Anthony, my most reliable cousin. I need you to stand by my side and join me to lobby the three elders. Father is no longer fit to be a director. He should take good care of his illness. I hope you can support me as a regent."

The Duke frowned tightly: "Kleon..."

"Mother is staying with father inside." Raphael said, "I will contact mother right away and tell her to delay the time no matter what. We all know that she is a weak woman, but she is the queen after all, and her words still have certain meanings." Serious."

The Duke pondered for a moment and said, "What about Louis?"

"He doesn't know." Raphael sneered, "Even if he knows, what can he do? There is no place for him in this battle. You are my comrade-in-arms, Anthony. When I wear the crown One day, I will reserve the frontmost seat in the cathedral for you."

In the window full of moonlight, Felix IV's limp body was trapped in the mattress. Only the data of the life detector and the rise and fall of his chest proved that he was still alive.

Queen Iris knelt in front of the holy light frame in the room, whispering prayers.

"Mom, you should eat something." Luis put his arms around his mother's shoulders with concern, "You have become so thin these past few days that you have become hoarse from crying. Don't wait for your father to recover, but you sick."

Queen Iris shook her head, her face buried in the shadows.

Louis was getting impatient when he heard the Queen's hoarse and distressed voice: "Your father's illness will never recover..."

Louis turned his head and stared at his mother in astonishment: "What did you say..."

"Hush—" the queen dragged Louis to kneel with her, "Pray!"

Louis quickly understood and lowered his head.

"Your father is terminally ill." The Queen said in a very low voice that made the second son feel cold, "The doctor said that he has less than half a year left. Yes, I knew it a long time ago. Your elder brother also knew it. It was your father who said he would keep it from you because he loved you. But things are different now."

The queen took a deep breath: "Your elder brother told me that your father's disease was caused by a genetic mutation. But today Dr. Hassan secretly told me that he suspected that your father was actually poisoned!"

Louis almost jumped up - if it wasn't for the queen's choking on his hand, the nails almost poked bloody holes on the back of his hand.

"I don't know if your elder brother is watching us, but I have to tell you. Because this matter is too important. You have to listen to me!"

Louis bit the tip of his tongue to calm himself down: "Speak, mother."

Queen Iris said: "Your father was so tortured by this disease that he was tempted by the devil and made a crazy and terrible decision-he planned to ask Dr. Hassan to change his body. Just now, he chose Leon as his new body. The poor child has probably been sent to the operating room."

"It's just..." Cold sweat was pouring out from every pore of Louis frantically, "That child is our blood relative after all!"

"Of course this operation will not be performed." Queen Iris said, "Your eldest brother, he intends to use the scandal of this operation to force your father to abdicate!"

"But..." Louis was puzzled, "If father is really that sick, Raphael just needs to be patient, the throne will be his sooner or later."

The queen trembled all over: "When your father woke up earlier, he told me that he already knew that it was Raphael who poisoned him and wanted to ruin his reputation. Because... because Raphael knew..."

"Know what, mother?"

"I know that your father was planning to change the crown prince before he fell ill this time." The queen said, "Louis, the rumor is true. You are the real legal heir."

The author has something to say: Oscar owes everyone who appeared on stage a statuette...

Explain the current progress: the Queen Infernal Affairs big coffee, pretending to be an old woman to the emperor, telling the prince that an operation is needed, telling the youngest son that your father has been cheated.The strength provoked the two sons to turn against each other

The prince pretended to be a partner of the empire, and the drug poisoned the little mad dog. It was the emperor who lied to the old mad dog to win over the old mad dog.

The old mad dog is smart but pretends to be an idiot, and was fooled by the prince on purpose.

The imperial guards are also infernal, and those who listen to the prince's command pretend to listen to the emperor.

It seems that only poor Louis is the most innocent...
