Chapter 1074 Golden Bird Cage (Second update, please subscribe)

When the whistling shells fell into the palace, a chaos immediately sparked in the palace. In this chaos, when eunuchs and palace maids fled around protecting the Sultan's concubines, no one would ask about the princes in the building called "Golden Bird Cage" in the Sarakirio Palace.

The so-called "golden bird cage" is actually a prison used to imprison the Sultan brothers. In fact, such a prison is lucky for the Ottoman princes.

"A carpet is enough for two believers to live in, but this world is so small that it cannot accommodate two sultans!"

Unlike any country, the Ottoman Empire had a barbaric and cruel way of becoming a crown prince, and all Ottoman princes had to face a test of life and death. The winner who ascended the throne of the Sultan will execute all brothers who might pose a threat to their power one by one after ascending the throne!

"You cannot decide how many sons your father will give birth to, but you can decide how many brothers you will have after you ascend to the throne!" This is the fate of every Ottoman prince. The Ottoman Empire's inheritance law was not only written into the law, but even found a "prophet" to defend their killing of brothers and slaughtering.

"It is appropriate for any of my sons, chosen by the Prophet, to kill his brothers for a better world order. Most Urima has declared this permission."

"If you become the Ottoman monarch, you must work hard to govern, be virtuous and ruthless to the enemy, lead your subjects to prosperity and prosperity, and be well aware of the importance of national survival. Those weak and incompetent wine bags cannot control the huge power and the future of the country. Only bloody killing can eliminate them."

Mohammed III, the son of Mohammed II, who found a legal basis for killing his brothers and slaughtering his brothers, perfectly enforced the law. After he inherited the throne, he hanged his 19 younger brothers in one breath. This was the biggest slaughter in the history of the Ottoman Empire. Not only that, even the six favorite concubines in the harem of my father were all sewn into bags and threw them into the Bosphorus Strait, so as not to give birth to children qualified to inherit the throne of the Sultan.

"The 19 innocent princes were taken from their mother's knees and joined the arms of the merciful prophet." More than ten years later, Mohammed III threw himself into his arms, leaving only two young children, because they were too young and if one of them was killed, in case of an accident, there would be no heirs in the Ottoman Empire.

So Sultan Ahmed I, who inherited the throne, did not slaughter his brother. He forgiven the life of his only younger brother Mustafa and imprisoned Mustafa in the "Golden Bird Cage". Mustafa has no human body in the "Golden Bird Cage", and has the freedom to learn knowledge. His only entertainment activity here is to feed the fish in the Bosphorus, but the things he feeds to the fish are not food, but gold coins.

From then on, the detention of brothers in the "Golden Bird Cage" replaced the inheritance of genitals. The only use and final hope of these Ottoman princes who were imprisoned in the "Golden Bird Cage" was that perhaps they would become the oldest princes, and then according to the system of inheritance of the eldest son, they would have the opportunity to become the sultan. This wait is often long, long enough to drive anyone crazy.

For the 22-year-old Suleiman, this is also his only hope. He was imprisoned in this luxurious prison. His daily entertainment was to stand by the window and look at the Bosphorus. Of course, he did not have the chance to throw gold coins and feed fish like Mustafa. What he could do, at most, just have fun with the female slaves. Of course, almost all of the female slaves were sterilized, and even if the female slaves were unfortunately pregnant, they would be killed.

"Ah, this is putting on fireworks!"

When he heard the explosion, Suleiman, who was looking at the sea, said to himself.

"Is it a celebration of the victory of Central Sudan?"

The long-term isolation of the world made Suleiman seem a little "stupid" like other princes. In fact, this was the result of long-term lack of contact with the outside world. More than 20 years later, after his brother Muhan was killed for four lifetimes, he succeeded to the throne and became the sultan. Although he was not promising, he was not considered a foolish monarch. Unlike many of his sultans who followed him, he was not as enterprising and indulging in lust, most of them were just drinking and finally became an incompetent foolish monarch.

But now, facing the shelling, Suleiman just stood there like a fool, watching the shells falling from the sky and then landing on the tower. In the violent explosion, the tower fell down, burying more than a dozen foolish Ottoman princes and their female slaves in it...

Even so, no eunuch would rush over to rescue them from the ruins. These princes were just a group of useless waste. Compared to saving them, those black eunuchs would rather take the opportunity to gain some benefits and hide the gold and silver treasures.

While the black eunuchs were taking advantage of the chaos to steal property, Princess Turhan, who was the lord of the latter, was loudly ordering to the guards.

"The Chinese fleet is shelling Istanbul, where is our fleet?"

This princess who became the lord of the harem by killing her mother-in-law, Empress Dowager Kosem, may be more concerned with extravagant enjoyment and no intention of politics, but during the Sultan's expedition, she was naturally the real master of the empire.

The Chinese fleet actually arrived at the city of Istanbul, what did the defenders on the other side of the Dardanelles eat? What a group of idiots!

But even if she only focuses on extravagant enjoyment, now is not the time to hold people accountable. The most important thing now is to drive the Chinese out.

"The fleet has been training in the bay, and many of them have just gotten on board..."

"Let them go out immediately and don't wait any longer. Do you want the Chinese to blow all of us to death?"

Princess Turhan shouted loudly, her beautiful face was full of anger. She was enjoying the entertainment of the actors at this time, but now? The Chinese shelling drove her into the dark cellar.

"Tell them that we must teach the Chinese people a profound lesson no matter what!"

As the attendant general led the guards to convey the order, Princess Turhan looked at Chelay, the guy who launched a coup with her and hanged the Queen Mother Korsem with his own hands.

“Is my palace not damaged?”

Until now, Princess Turhan was more concerned about her palace and the gold, silver and jewelry in her palace. For her, the country has never been the most important thing.

"Empress Dowager, this is actually a good opportunity!"

Chery said flatteringly.

"After the Chinese are repelled, we can order them to the provinces to pay more treasures to make up for the Queen Mother's losses."

Chelay's suggestion made Princess Turhan's eyes lit up, and the frost on her face immediately changed into a smile.

"Chere, it's better for you to have the idea, just do what you said!"

"It is the duty of a slave to serve the master."

Chelay has always been the best help for the princess to make money, and now it is even more so. When his words fell, a eunuch came in to report on "Kafes", that is, the "prison" that imprisoned the princes. When the explosion collapsed, Princess Turhan just said casually.

"I got it, go back and bury them next to their father. Is the palace seriously damaged?"
