Chapter 228
Ten days have passed since Francisco's ascension to the throne. In the past ten days, no governor came to ask for his departure, and Mirengo and Rocia were the same.
The reason why the two of them did not act rashly was because they received the queen's secret correspondence, which made the two of them not enter the palace during this period, otherwise Francisco might make some adjustments.
Now the two of them are fish on the chopping board, and there is nothing else to do except wait.
Two more days later, a governor finally couldn't help it and took the initiative to go to the palace to pay homage to Francesco and requested to return to the territory.
Francisco agreed and then held a court meeting.
Seven governors and a group of ministers were all present.
"After the throne ceremony, I know that some ministers are eager to return. Today, I will talk about this matter here." Francisco said while sitting on the imperial throne.
Mirengo and Rochia's hearts tightened and finally talked about what they were concerned about.
"The seven governors, here today, swore blood to the emperor, and could not betray the emperor of the empire. After the matter was completed, they could leave." Francisco said.
Why don’t you just say that you can’t betray Francisco himself? It’s because Francisco himself wants some face and doesn’t want others to say that his appearance is too ugly. From this we can see that Francisco has long become an indecisive person.
Mogandalf stood below, with the ancient Jing Wubo on his face. He didn't say anything, nor did he intend to say anything. Francisco's behavior seemed ridiculous to him. Can blood be used to tie the hearts of these people? Everything was just his wishful thinking.
Francisco looked at the governors, and the governor hesitated for a while, and Mirengo took the lead in walking out.
He picked up a knife, cut one of his fingers, and shouted, "My Merengo swears that he will never betray the Emperor of the Empire! If there is any disobedience, the heaven and earth will not tolerate it!" But he said something else in his heart. It is right to be loyal to the Emperor of the Empire, but the real emperor of the Empire is Grego. He did not intend to be loyal to the traitor in front of him!
After Mirengo said that, Francisco nodded with satisfaction, and the others also came up one after another, swearing blood.
Seeing that the matter was finished, Francisco signaled the eunuch beside him and said loudly, "Retreat!"
The ministers and the governor retreated one after another.
Mirengo and Rochia turned their backs to the person behind, and both walked in front, with a hint of sneer on their faces.
Mogandalf walked behind and looked as if the sky outside the hall was rolling, as if heavy rain was about to fall. Mogandalf sighed long, "This empire is about to begin to be in chaos."
Mirengo and Rochia returned to the hotel and couldn't wait to inform Roger and others. Roger and others immediately rushed to the port, boarded the Delanique, and prepared to set off and leave.
After Mirengo hurriedly packed his luggage, he took his wife and the Iron Shadow Guard to leave the hotel, and went to the port, and left on a warship, for fear of a lasting change.
The same is true for Rochia.
The other governors had long since wanted to stay here and left Sigma.
Some experienced ministers must have left in a hurry, and always felt that something big happened. Are these seven governors really loyal to the empire?
After two days of interstellar voyage, Roger and his friends arrived at Mirengo's territory, New Zepa Star.
This is a planet in the second planetary chain of the Sita Empire. The Sita Empire arranged eight planets into three planetary chains according to the planet's position. Three are at the outermost periphery, which belong to the border planets, and four are in the second chain, which closely surrounds the capital Sigma and is also the source of the main tax revenue of the Sita Empire.
The star of Xinzepa is located in the second planet, which is the most important part.
Upon learning that Mirengo was coming back, Lieutenant General Lei Meier, a military representative of New Zepastar, came to the port early and waited.
The two warships finally approached the port, followed by a ship, but in order to avoid trouble, Roger and the others did not hang the pirate flag.
The group finally arrived at the port.
Mirengo walked down from the warship, and Roger and others gathered in costumed Gregor and got off the Delanique.
"Governor General, welcome back!" Leimeier walked to Mirengo and said.
Mirengo smiled and nodded, saying to Leimeier, "These are all guests, please arrange them to stay next to the Governor's Mansion."
Lei Meier glanced at Roger and others, and when he saw Roger's appearance, his pupils shrank, "Governor, is that the pirate who has become famous recently? How could you come back with him?" Lei Meier said in confusion.
"I will explain this to you later, and now arrange them first." Mirengo whispered.
"Yes, I get it."
Roger and others were taken to the next door to the Governor's Mansion and lived there.
The next morning, Mirengo summoned the generals from New Zepa and all leaders to the Governor's Office.
Roger and others hid behind the lobby.
"Everyone, before discussing this matter, I will first meet someone for you." Mirengo said.
He clapped his hands and Gregor came out of it without any concealment.
Everyone shouted in disbelief, "Your Majesty the Emperor!"
Their first reaction was whether this person was fake. Gregor said, "My dear friends, I am Gregor, this thing is evidenced by this!" He held up the ring in his hand to show everyone. This was what everyone had seen, and it was the token given to him by the late emperor back then.
"See Your Majesty!" Everyone said kneeling.
"Everyone please get up!" Gregor quickly asked everyone to get up.
"Your Majesty, aren't you... missing?" Lei Meier said hesitantly.
"There is another hidden truth in this matter. In order to escape from Francesco's control, I escaped from Sigma. Francesco sent people to chase and kill Housekeeper Locke and me. Thanks to meeting Mr. Roger and his companions, I escaped through their help." Gregor said.
Roger and others also appeared from behind.
Everyone nodded.
After Gregor appeared, they had vaguely guessed what Mirengo wanted to do.
Mirengo stood up and said, "Everyone, the real emperor is here, Francisco is just a usurper. All the things between me and him were just a show. I decided to support His Majesty Grego, attack the rebellious ministers, and restore the orthodoxy of the Sita royal family!"
Everyone's bodies were shocked.
"Governor General, is it our Nzepa anti-Francisco?" asked Lemier.
"No, there is Governor Rocia. I will contact other Governors to attack Francesco together!" Mirengo said loudly.
