Spellcasting Heavens

At midnight, shortly after the banquet in the palace ended, the entire envoy returned to their residence under the leadership of the prince.

Before he could sit down and take a breath, a waiter walked in with two mysterious men shrouded in cloaks, and said cautiously: Your Highness, your friend has arrived.

Oh? My friend? There was a surprised expression on the prince's face.

Because he doesn’t have many friends in the kingdom. The only ones who can be called friends are...

It's me, Your Highness.

One of the men took off his hood on his own initiative, and it turned out to be the palace noble who took the lead in inciting the rebellion not long ago.

But now, he has lost his territory and title, and is no different from a commoner in principle.

But those complex relationships that still exist can be preserved for a while.

Ah! So it's you. I heard my father mention you, calling you a truly noble and pure nobleman, a hero who is willing to stand up against tyranny and injustice. After figuring out the identity of the other party, the prince immediately changed He showed another face, stood up and praised loudly.

Of course, in his heart, he was actually full of contempt for this despicable person who betrayed his country for power.

After all, those who sell out their country in exchange for glory and wealth are out-and-out scum in any era. Some of them will even be nailed to the pillar of shame in history forever. Even if they sincerely surrender to the other party, they will not be reused. .

The prince's political literacy is obviously good. He hides his contempt deeply in his heart and does not show it obviously.

On the contrary, he showed the enthusiasm that a prince should have for his defectors.

It really makes me feel extremely happy and terrified to hear the praise of Emperor Harrison. Please rest assured that I will not betray his trust and drive that damn usurper out of office. The palace noble vowed to give ensure.

When the prince heard this, he nodded immediately: I admire your confidence and courage very much. But can you tell me your plan?

No problem, this is exactly the reason why I came to see you. As he said that, the palace noble turned sideways and pointed at the fellow travelers following him. This is Baron Marais, a veteran nobleman with great military exploits. Next, he will explain to you what kind of march route we will take after raising the flag of justice.

Without saying a word, the guy called Baron Marais took out a map from his arms and spread it out on the table: Your Highness, please look, this is Tillsburg, and this is the Bishui River. If After we raise troops, we can seize the dock and block the river within three days, which will cut off two-thirds of the food supply in the capital. Please think about how angry the civilians will become when they don't get enough food. ?”

Interesting! Do you want to threaten Vilia with food to compromise? The prince's eyes shone slightly.

You must know that on this planet with extremely backward transportation, any big city with a population of more than 100,000 is either close to the seaside and uses sea transportation to solve the transportation of bulk daily necessities, or there is a wide river to complete transportation by river, or It is a combination of both, otherwise it would be impossible to feed so many urban people who are not engaged in agricultural activities.

Since the kingdom's most important food production areas are on both sides of the Bishui River, the food, vegetables, meat, eggs, cheese and other foods consumed in the capital every day are transported by this river to the dock, and then dispersed from the dock to various markets. sell.

If the transit terminal near Tillsburg is blocked,

Within a week the densely populated city would be plunged into famine.

At that time, any ruler with an online IQ will choose to compromise rather than take huge risks and be ousted from office by angry people.

That's right! To be honest, from a military perspective, I really can't think of any way to win a head-on battle. So at this time, strategy will become particularly important. We don't need a battle. Victory requires a fatal blow from an unexpected place. Since she now wants to please those low-level untouchables, we will let her see how these untouchables resist her rule. Baron Marais grinned. , showing an extremely sinister smile.

You don't need to ask to know that he wants to teach Vilia a lesson, so that this little girl understands what is the foundation of the kingdom that is worth relying on. Those people at the bottom who can be bribed with a little favor are not worth relying on at all. At the slightest sign of trouble, these guys will choose to betray without hesitation.

Hahahaha! It seems that our Majesty the Queen is in trouble this time. But I have another question. Have you contacted the old king? He will finally stand up to support us and give this coup a legal name. After all, my father is an emperor who likes to uphold orthodoxy. He doesn’t want the glory he has persisted in his whole life to be tarnished in his later years. The prince tried with a smile.

The so-called politics, the knight is to be a bitch and to build a memorial at the same time.

If you just be a bitch without building a memorial, you will be looked down upon by others and regarded as a nouveau riche who lacks foundation and looks too ugly.

If Guangli Archway does not show off, he will be a complete political idiot and will be ridiculed by everyone for being pedantic, incapable of flexibility, and lacking in flexible political skills.

Only by taking both into account are the qualities that a qualified political talent should have.

Baron Marais exchanged a look with the palace nobles and quickly responded: For the sake of confidentiality, we have not yet contacted the old king. But I believe that when he sees the change in the situation, he will not reject us. Proposal. No matter what, he must be responsible for his family, otherwise the kingdom cannot change another family to be the royal family, right?

Who do you plan to replace? The prince grasped the key words keenly, with an expression of interest on his face.

Of course it is you, my Highness. Don't you think that it is a perfect plan for the son of the great Emperor Harrison to marry the princess of the kingdom, and then legitimately become a prince and take charge of the country. The palace noble hinted meaningfully. .

I?!

After hearing these words, the prince suddenly felt that a fire called ambition was ignited deep in his heart, exuding unimaginable energy.

He simply couldn't imagine what it would be like to rule the kingdom as a prince and finally put his son on the throne.

Especially being far away from his father who was keen on power, having to decide everything by himself was a naked temptation for him...
