Translator: 549690339
Under the summons of Queen Sofia, the ministers of Hapsburg quickly gathered in the main hall.
Of course, those who could enter the palace and enter the main hall were all high ranking officials. Low ranking officials were not qualified to enter the palace.
“Your Majesty, why are you in such a hurry to summon us? Did something important happen?”
“Where’s the great elder? Why haven’t We Seen Him?”
“Yeah, according to the Great Elder’s temper, there’s no way he would be late…”
After the officials entered the hall, they started discussing among themselves. No one knew what had happened. In a corner of the hall, the great elder and his son’s bodies were lying there, covered with a piece of white cloth, unfortunately, no one noticed at this time.
At this moment, Queen Sofia and Jiang Fei were behind the screen. Sofia looked a little nervous. After all, for a long time, the authority of the great elder had been in the hands of the entire Hapsburg Empire, almost everything was in his hands. Although Sofia had the ambition to be a pro-government official, she had never thought of using this method to resolve the threat of the Great Elder.
“Don’t be nervous. Just do as I say. If anything happens, I will help you solve it,”Jiang Fei said with a smile.
“Alright…”looking at Jiang Fei’s smiling face, Sophia felt much more at ease. In the end, she made up her mind. Now that things had come to this, it was too late to go back on her words. Moreover, Jiang Fei was the person who was predicted in the ancient books, if she did as he said, there should not be any problems.
After taking a deep breath, Sophia walked out of the screen.
“Her Majesty the Queen is Here!”A servant shouted loudly.
“Greetings, Her Majesty the Queen!”The officials bowed one after another. For so many years, although the great elder had absolute authority, the queen was still the queen. In terms of etiquette, these officials did not dare to be as impudent as the Great Elder.
“Get up.”Sophia waved her hand and sat on the throne.
At this time, Jiang Fei also walked out from behind the screen.
“Who is this person?”
“I don’t know… I’ve never seen this young man before…”
“Could he be the Queen’s Boy Toy?”
“It’s hard to say… After all, the queen is already at this age…”
..
The officials discussed among themselves. Although their voices were very low, the space in the hall was limited. Jiang Fei and Sophia could hear them clearly.
Sophia’s face turned slightly red, but Jiang Fei’s face fell instantly.
“Impudent! How dare you frame Her Majesty the Queen? Men, take her down!”Jiang Fei suddenly shouted.
“Yes!”The samurai in front of the palace roared and immediately stopped the two ministers. These samurai in front of the palace had already received orders from Sophia. Therefore, they immediately took action as soon as Jiang Fei gave the order.
“Your Majesty? !”All the ministers present were dumbfounded, usually, the great elder had absolute authority. The queen was just a decoration. Everyone respected her only out of courtesy. In fact, no one took her seriously. Only a few royalist factions were loyal to her.
Moreover, over the years, there were actually quite a number of officials who spoke nonsense in the imperial court. However, they had the authority of the Grand Elder. Sophia had always pretended not to hear them, therefore, these people did not take her seriously at all. They did not expect the queen’s “Boy toy”to be serious today.
“Your Majesty, these people have no respect for the emperor. They deserve to be killed!”Jiang Fei said immediately. This made Sophia a little nervous. After all, since the start of the cooperation, it had only been a few hours, however, Jiang Fei’s killing intent was really shocking to Sophia.
“Agreed!”Sophia gritted her teeth. At this time, she definitely could not ruin Jiang Fei’s reputation. Otherwise, once Jiang Fei gave up, she would not be able to clean up the mess.
“What? !”All the officials, including the royalist faction, were dumbfounded. Although they supported Sophia’s personal politics, they did not expect to break with the Great Elder’s faction right now. After all, many conditions were not ripe yet.
After seeing Sophia nod, Jiang Fei waved his hand. The Warriors in front of the hall dragged the two officials out of the hall. Once they were out of the hall, their heads would be moved.
“Wait! We want to see the Great Elder!”
“You can’t Kill Us. We want to see the Great Elder!”
..
When their lives were at stake, the two men remembered their backers. They were clamoring to see the great elder.
“Alright, then I’ll let you see him!”Jiang Fei’s lips curled into a cold smile.
“Phew…”the two of them heaved a sigh of relief. In their minds, as long as they saw the great elder, they would only be reprimanded and not allowed to do it again. After that, the matter would be settled.
“Bring them over!”At that moment, Jiang Fei waved his hand. A few warriors in front of the hall immediately went to the corner of the hall and carried the two corpses to the center of the hall.
“Swish!”Jiang Fei tore off the white cloth that was covering the two corpses.
“Did you see that?”Jiang Fei laughed coldly. Then, he said to the Warriors in front of the hall, “Their wish has been fulfilled. Retreat and kill them!”
“Yes!”The Warriors in front of the hall did not wait for Jiang Fei to say anything. They dragged the two guys who had already lost their minds and walked out of the hall.
At that moment, not to mention the two unlucky guys who were about to be killed, the entire hall was completely silent. The news of the Great Elder’s death was too shocking. It caught everyone off guard. Everyone was a little stunned.
“The great elder had conspired with his son to rebel. Now, he has been executed. Do you have anything to say?”Jiang Fei said as he looked at the officials in the hall.
“…”the entire hall was silent. The heavy breathing of the people in the hall was particularly ear-piercing.
“The Queen’s good name. We firmly support Her Majesty the Queen. We are loyal to Her Majesty the Queen!”The first to react were not the people from the royalist faction, but the few closest confidants of the Great Elder.
These guys knew that once the great elder died, they would be the ones who would be in trouble. Moreover, now that the Great Elder was dead, it seemed that they had no chance to rebel. If they did not show their loyalty now.., if they disowned the relationship with the great elder, they would end up like the two unlucky guys who were pushed out.
“Long live the Queen!”At this time, the people from the Royalist faction finally reacted.
“Long live the Queen!”The other ministers also knelt down. Although the death of the Great Elder was a little sudden, not only was the queen not ready, but the great elder was also not ready. Therefore, when he died.., it meant that the monkeys had scattered after the tree fell.
“Everyone, get up.”Jiang Fei looked at Sofia, then, he said to the ministers, “Everyone knows what you have done before. Her Majesty is kind and will not pursue you. However, you must be grateful and do not have any thoughts that you should not have!”
