In the front hall of the palace, there is a court meeting. All the officials are present, and Queen Yalan here is also rare to attend this court meeting.
But these ministers were not so surprised to see Yalan. Some time ago, Yalan's attendance at the court meeting would really surprise them. They thought that the Queen had done too much in confinement after giving birth.
, I should be back to work in a month.
But Yalan was just as lazy as she could, either by asking the eldest sister to come, or by asking the second sister to come. Anyway, she had not seen anyone for several months before.
However, due to the recent rebellion, Yalan has hosted several large court meetings. So this time it is probably a rebellion.
The ministers have naturally learned about the current situation of the rebellion through various channels. Unexpectedly, the menacing 200,000-strong army was directly dispersed by the Third Army in a single attack, and the Second Army temporarily rebelled. Now the only remaining First Army
Although some of the remaining soldiers of the legion are still resisting stubbornly, they probably won't be able to survive for long. It is only a matter of time before they are wiped out.
This should be a reward-type meeting. After all, everyone contributed to defeating the rebels. Without ministers like them sitting behind the scenes to help His Majesty implement policies, the rebellion would not be solved so easily, right?
Thinking of this, everyone felt a little relaxed, until the first thing Yalan mentioned here was that the commander of the Second Army was assassinated on the way.
Everyone knew about this, but they thought it was the acting legion commander of the newly promoted nobles, the guy named Gruto, who was responsible for the mess? As expected, people with mud-legged backgrounds are unreliable in their work, and they are lucky.
He got a noble status, but ended up messing up everything he did.
However, Yalan's first words made them a little confused, because she said that the news was leaked from them.
Seeing this situation, it was obvious that he was here to hold someone accountable. Soon Yalan named all the ministers who knew the information at that time and asked them to explain the situation clearly.
"Your Majesty, it's unfair. I really haven't told anyone about this matter." The reactions of several ministers here were similar. They immediately called out the injustice. They are not fools, this is a military secret.
, can this be said everywhere?
To be honest, most of the ministers who have survived to this day are sensible. Those who are not sensible have long been punished by Linton, so when it comes to keeping secrets, they are really careful and they really don't dare to say anything.
.Don’t dare to say anything casually, whether it’s to family members or other trusted people.
"I advise you to think carefully. Anyone who has said something has better say it now." Yalan said, "If you admit it now, the most you can do is to be demoted. I know that you are all loyal people and not traitors. Otherwise,
If I do, I will not discuss military matters with you. My purpose now is to find the person who betrayed me. If you really intend to carry him to death or are prepared to cover him up, I will let my husband handle this matter."
When they heard this, all the ministers were frightened. If they let Yalan handle it, they might just be scolded and demoted, because they knew Yalan's character. But if Linton was asked to come, they would probably kill them all.
Something like that.
They were absolutely right.
Now they were a little panicked and quickly wondered if they had told anyone else about this. Now they were beginning to doubt themselves. Could it be that they had leaked the secret? For example, they accidentally told someone while they were drunk and slept.
When I was sleeping, I accidentally talked in my sleep.
Because they were really unsure, they even wanted to tell everyone about the banquet and other events they had at that time. Although they didn't know whether they said it or not, they just wanted to arrest them all and ask them directly.
But just as they were preparing to make a wild confession, one of the ministers suddenly remembered something.
"Um...Your Majesty..." the minister here said a little weakly.
"What's wrong, Lord Twillit?" Yalan looked at the other party and asked.
"That...is it...as long as you have mentioned it, everyone counts?" asked the minister named Twillit.
"Yes, anyone, including my husband." Yalan said directly. Of course, Linton was definitely not the one, because he knew from the beginning that Yalan was just expressing her attitude without having to listen to what others said.
"Uh... in that case, I... actually talked about this with Princess Jorah..." Twillit said.
"..." Yalan looked at Twillit, her face gradually turning cold.
"Well, Her Royal Highness the Princess asked me proactively." Twillit saw Yalan's face and quickly began to explain.
Twillit obviously didn't mean it. The person who caused all this was actually Yalan. Generally speaking, someone with a status like the emperor's sister should not be involved in political affairs, and obviously no minister would specifically tell her this. But
The problem is that it's different here in the Holy Empire of Elan.
You must know that in the past, both the eldest sister Fula and the second sister Jorah helped Yalan handle state affairs. In the eyes of many ministers, their identities were simply the second and third emperors.
Now that Emperor No. 3 is asking you something, Twillit will naturally tell Jorah the matter without any suspicion. How could he, an ordinary minister, know what is going on between these three people?
"I know." After listening to the other party's explanation, Yalan nodded with an unkind expression.
Twillit was very scared because Her Majesty the Queen looked really bad. But he didn't know that Yalan's ugly look was not because he had leaked information, but because it confirmed his suspicion.
Yes, the person who leaked the information was Jorah. Linton had already analyzed this matter for her before going to court. What is missing now is the evidence, but now that there are witnesses, it is basically confirmed.
When the coffin was opened before, the body of the eldest brother was not seen. Yalan probably had expected something bad to happen. Now it is confirmed again that Jorah is still sending messages to the other party, and even the unit responsible for the assassination may be
They were all assigned by Jorah. Because the First Legion was being chased everywhere at this time, they had no time to take care of these things.
Thinking of this, Yalan also sighed, and then suddenly looked in the direction of the door of the front hall.
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps, and there were many people listening to the footsteps. Because there was a large court meeting, it was obviously impossible for anyone to lead a team here at this time.
All the ministers looked in the direction of the front hall door where the footsteps appeared, and then saw Linton, the leader, striding in directly from the door with a large number of knights in golden armor.
"Everyone, stand where you are and don't move. Whoever moves will die." Linton said directly, "The princes and generals have the guts! Today is the day when I, Linton, usurps the throne!"
