Chapter 555 [Three Changes](1/3)
The little Master David from the Minas family is actually a rare super magic genius!
Such news spread quickly in the palace, and soon crossed the scope of the palace and spread to the outside world. Even though Emperor Garcia seemed very annoyed after receiving the news, he also ordered people around him not to spread this matter, but it was useless at all.
People always have curiosity, and such news spread very quickly. The secrets in the palace are naturally very popular gossip.
The story about David's magical talent spread outside the palace, and during the process of spread, it was gradually exaggerated and even changed its taste. During the rumors, the child was even portrayed as a talented young magician with considerable strength. Even afterwards, the content of the news became that the young master took the initiative to realize his magical ability, which greatly impressed the palace magician. In the secret competition, the young master's magical power surpassed the palace magician...
Such exaggerated and bizarre or even outrageous statements have a big market.
It is naturally difficult for the aristocratic class in the imperial capital to report such news - to explain it clearly.
However, what is certain is that most of the people who had originally secretly communicated with the Minas family were happy. The Minas family now has territory, army and prestige. If a powerful magician is produced, then the status will naturally become more stable.
The only person who was extremely uneasy about this news was the old prime minister Sarenponelli.
Because after a series of things, this Lao Zai knows the character of Emperor Garcia compared to anyone.
Although this young emperor has always given people the impression of calmness and caution in his career as a crown prince, in fact, he is simply paranoid in his bones! His previous calmness and caution were all disguised, or even deliberately suppressed! And when the late emperor Contos, who was suppressed on his head, passed away, the frivolity and impetuousness in his bones broke out and rebounded even more.
Such a personality is undoubtedly very dangerous to fall into an emperor!
Garcia hates the Minas family very much! Lao Zai knows this compared to everyone!
Yes, it’s not about increasing hum, but about hatred! Unforgettable hatred!
This hatred is even far more than the hatred for Adrick.
Although Adrick had a military coup and seized the emperor's power, Garcia had never been in the same mind as Adrick, and the emperor had never really trusted Adrick. But this is not the case with Duke Minas! It can be said that the old fox of Duke Minas deceived Garcia, used Garcia, and then rose step by step, took power, and took charge of the army... In the end, he was betrayal!
For the emperor, Duke Minas completely betrayed his trust and stabbed him hard in the back.
Such harm is far higher than Adrick's coup in terms of emotion.
In addition, the almost hatred and indifferent relationship between the queen and the emperor. A news came from the old prime minister in the inside line of the palace. Just when the Duke of Minas had just recovered, the relationship between the Minas family and Garcia was in the honeymoon period. Gasoya tried to show kindness to the Minas family closer, and even planned to have sex with the queen... As a result, the queen refused very coldly.
This is undoubtedly a humiliation for an emperor. What's more, Garcia is simply a rabbit. For him, being willing to have sex with a woman has already endured it with great perseverance. However, his self-righteous "sacrifice" was rejected by the other party.
Later, with the betrayal of Duke Minas, it can be said that the surname "Minas" has been included in the first place in the emperor's list of enemies! All the people with the surname Minas are the emperor who wants to kill them so quickly!
However, the old Duke Minas naturally could not move. Lord Roddy was also far away from the sky. The queen had a prominent status and could not be touched randomly.
Then... this little David...
A boy who seemed annoying but harmless suddenly became a huge potential threat and disaster for a huge future.
What would Emperor Garcia think?!
There is no need to guess this question!
Because rumors have already spread in the palace, it is said that after Garcia learned that David was a super magic genius, she was so angry that she turned over the table that night and smashed the utensils in the room to pieces. From time to time, his roar came: "I want to kill him! I want to kill that little boy! Kill that scoundrel!!!"
"That bastard dared to look down on me, and dared to reject my kindness!!"
"That old bastard deceived me and deceived my trust!!"
"Now this little bastard actually jumped out! Big magician?! Hahahahaha!! Big magician of the Minas family?!!"
"Kill him!!! Kill him!!!"
The emperor roared angrily in his dormitory, causing the servants standing outside to look like earth and tremble all over and hear such words. If he is not careful, he will be silenced.
Finally, when Garcia roared in the middle of the night, the emperor finally calmed down. When he walked out of the dormitory, his expression was cold and his eyes were covered with blood.
"Send someone to find Basin."
xxx
Basin was an officer of the Imperial Guard. He was born into a noble family and his family was not prominent, but he had a little connection with the royal family - this was just a trace that could only be found by chasing several generations from the ancient genealogy. To put it bluntly, his family was a distant relative of the royal family who could not even be beaten.
But Basin was a very loyal royalist. His origin made him a member of the Imperial Guard when he was very young. The royal guards have always selected outstanding young children among the small and medium-sized nobles of the loyal emperor.
Basin himself was not very talented in all aspects, but he had one thing: he was rude. He had always been a loyal royal family in his heart and had never wavered.
When the rebels besieged Oskilla and even broke the city, Basin, as an Imperial Guardian officer, fought bloody battles with the rebels on the walls of the palace, and was injured in many places. After Osgilia was restored, due to heavy losses in the Imperial Guardian, a large number of elite troops were transferred to the front-line combat troops during the many military reorganizations and transfers. Among the remaining people in the Imperial Guardian, Basin became an outstanding person because of his qualifications and merits. He received his first major promotion. He jumped from a low-level deputy battalion level, although he became a regiment level in the Zhengqi regiment level, he entered the ranks of senior officers in one breath, and passed the threshold that most middle and low-level officers could not cross in their lifetime, and this was still an Imperial Guardian!!
Then on the day of Adrick's mutiny, Basin, a loyal royal officer, sent to confront the Central Army of the mutiny with the remaining loyal emperor's imperial guards in front of the hall, becoming the last weak barrier in front of the emperor.
This time, Basin was completely trusted by the emperor. After the mutiny, Adrick successfully took power, and Basin was immediately promoted by the emperor again.
His current official position is the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard and the rank of Imperial General.
In fact, the position of orthodox leader of the Imperial Guard is now vacant.
An ordinary officer with an ordinary qualification from a small and medium-sized aristocratic family actually became the actual commander of the imperial royal guards. Such a thing would never happen in a peaceful era, even in a war-torn era, it can only be said to be a coincidence and a miracle.
Of course, it must also be noted that there are actually not many people left in the imperial guards in the current palace. After bloody battles and transfers, army reorganization, and later military knowledge... the actual number of imperial guards who are guarding the imperial city is less than 1,000.
This is already the lowest point in history and the most shabby imperial guards in the empire's history.
Even so, Basin is grateful for his new position and is even more loyal to Garcia. In fact, he has no other choice. Since the day of the mutiny, when he chose to confront the Central Army of the mutiny in front of the hall, he has no way out. As long as Adrick does not fall for a day, he will not have any other future in the imperial army. He can only focus on holding Emperor Garcia's thighs.
Basin arrived as soon as he summoned him, and his military uniform made this mediocre officer look a little more heroic.
Even though he had already made up his mind to be loyal to the emperor until his death, Garcia's words also made Bassin's forehead suddenly sweat!
"I want that David to die! You can get this done within two days."
Although Basin's face did not change, his clothes on his back soon became wet.
David? That little Master David...
Master David of the Minas family, the magic genius who has been preached recently? The grandson of Duke Minas, the son of Little Lord Roddy...
It is also the hostage left by the Minas family in the palace.
Now, the emperor wants him to die!
Moreover, obviously, this is by no means an imperial order that can see the light, but a secret order that can never be seen! a secret order that will never be recognized in any documents or documents of the palace!
Even though Basin is mediocre, he has experienced the influence of war and the series of coups in the imperial capital, and he still has an understanding of the entire political situation.
He knew very well what a fatal blow to the fragile balance that secretly executed David would bring to this fragile balance!
Obviously, the emperor lost his patience, and even the fear in his heart made him lose his mind!
But killing David... and using such a shameful way, he will undoubtedly become the knife in the emperor's hand! The kind who specializes in dirty work!
Even if it is equally possible, if the incident happens in the future, it will be the best candidate for the scapegoat thrown out by the emperor!
Cold sweat flowed down his forehead into his neck, and Basin felt a sense of confusion and even forgot to react.
Garcia looked at the confidant who was obviously in front of her, who was hesitant and afraid, and she felt a little dissatisfied. She snorted heavily, and her voice became colder: "Basin, are you hesitating, or are you unwilling to serve me?"
"No, I dare not!" Basin immediately knelt down on one knee, his head stuttered, but his hand holding the helmet couldn't help but tremble.
"Go, make it cleaner."
The emperor's tone was without any room for negotiation, and Basin had no courage to question it.
He couldn't even remember how he took the order and said goodbye. When he walked out of the room, he was blown by the evening breeze outside, his whole body felt a little cold.
Basin sighed and suddenly felt a little envious of his ex.
The former commander of the Imperial Guards did not have to bear such dirty work. At that time, the Imperial Guards were a noble profession for a serious senior imperial officer standing in the sun. As for the royal family's shameful things, there were special people to do the Dark Night Imperial Guards.
When Emperor Contos was there, such conspiracy and assassination were left to General Junker.
But now, Garcia has been in charge of his position for too short, and in the war, he has no chance to build his own power at all. Now he can't even protect the imperial power. How can he have the ability to build a Dark Night King Kong who is loyal to him?
Therefore, such shameful things can only be done by Basin, the serious Imperial Guard commander.
But after all, the officer Basin, who had been tempered by the sea of blood, quickly forced himself to cheer up.
Then he quickly cleaned up his mood and left after he immediately summoned several of his confidants, all of whom were the most loyal royalists among the Imperial Guards. Although the Imperial Guards are the most vulnerable imperial guards since the founding of the Empire, they have to admit that in terms of loyalty, the loyalty of this weak Imperial Guards can even catch up with the elites of the founding period.
The confidants selected were all like Basin and were from small and medium-sized nobles who did not have much power. These low-level officers were not as worried as Basin. After receiving Basin's order, they didn't say much, but had some differences on how to stab David to death.
Killing people in the palace is not so easy to rush into David's bedroom with a sword and then break up the body... After all, the emperor's orders are shameless. If they dare to do this, they will definitely be pulled out and executed directly as the murderer, and even implicate their own relatives.
Therefore, only assassination can be done.
But the problem is that David is the hostage left by the Minas family in the palace. The attendants around him are all sent by the Minas family. If there are not many of them with martial arts, I am afraid that even Basin himself will not believe it.
If he acted recklessly and caused anger, the other party would be exposed as long as the imperial guards in the imperial city were attracted. The emperor would never admit his orders, and he could only pull them out and chop them out on the charge of ill-gotten plots.
"Sir, why not put some medicine in their diet before you know it..."
Ba smiled bitterly. The dietary management in the palace was strict. Although he was the commander of the Imperial Guard, he could not order those responsible for diet. Besides, the fewer people know about this kind of thing, the better.
Only then did Basin sigh that he really had no professional talents under his command.
If it were the Dark Night King's in the past, this kind of assassination would be familiar with.
Fortunately, Basin was not too stupid, so he soon came up with a solution.
David lives in the dormitory with the Minas family's personal guardians, but he would never stay in the room all day long. When he went out, he would never keep all his servants with him.
Now, every afternoon, this child has to go to the magic laboratory of the palace master Duoduoluo and receive teaching of the basic theory of magic of Duoduoluo. He can only bring two or three servants to serve him on the way.
The locations of the magic lab in the palace are relatively remote... If you do it halfway...
As the current commander of the Imperial Guard of the Imperial Palace, Basin was naturally very familiar with the roads and environment in the palace, and soon found the best place to take action.
It was an artificial lake in the palace. It was the only way to go from David's residence to the Palace Magister Magic Laboratory. There was a bridge on the lake. If it was ambushed, there would be no better place than this. At that time, as long as you stop the bridge, the ambushed party would not even run away, unless you dive and swim, you would be afraid that a five-year-old child would not be so good in water! Even if his bodyguards had such good in water, no matter how good a swimming skills were, if a five-year-old child was swimming in the water, even if there was ten costs, he would go 99%!
