Ellie's scream alerted the people outside the door.
The housekeeper rushed into the room with a group of people, and saw Caen's clothes were messy, his trousers had been pulled back to his ankles, and he was lying straight on the ground, motionless.
A professional security guard came forward and after checking quickly, he was so frightened that he sat down on the floor: "The king... the king... is dead."
Everyone's brains roared, and they all froze on the spot.
The king got drunk and died while violently beating a maid against the wall!
This method of death has never been seen in ancient times. In addition to being extremely shocked, everyone was also confused and didn't know what to do next.
The housekeeper looked at Caen's body, and countless faces flashed through his mind.
It is no exaggeration to say that at this moment, he has completely reached the peak of his career, because his next decision will be related to the fate of the entire royal family.
Who should be notified first? This is a choice with countless possibilities.
The housekeeper swallowed, and after struggling for a long time, he finally made a decision. He ignored everyone, just walked out of the room, and used the communicator to contact the people around Kardashian.
Two minutes later, Maisie's mansion was under full martial law.
…
It's around 11 o'clock in the evening.
Prince Loren, mother Kardashian and others rushed to Maisie's mansion by car and rushed into the room where the incident occurred.
"Father!!!"
Although Loren had just received a severe beating, when he saw his father dying suddenly here, he lost control of his emotions instantly. His voice trembled and he shouted, and he threw himself at him.
Kardashian looked at her husband on the ground, and her expression changed very quickly, from shock, to brief confusion, to calmness, which happened within a few seconds.
"Char, come here." Kardashian said expressionlessly as she shouted to the housekeeper.
The two left the room and came to the corridor outside.
Not far away, Pat Howson stood at the top of the stairs and was crying bitterly, calling for his father, but two soldiers held him down and took him back upstairs.
In the empty hall, Kardashian calmly asked the housekeeper: "Is it an accident?"
"It should be... it should be." The housekeeper betrayed the king's privacy without hesitation: "He has always had heart problems. Our doctors have advised him many times not to drink alcohol and not to indulge in his private life, but you know
, no one can stop him from going to his own battlefield. Yesterday he was hungover, and his... mental state was very bad, and today... he acted on the spur of the moment..."
"He raped that girl?" Kardashian asked.
"Yes." The housekeeper nodded.
"You want to put that girl under house arrest." Kardashian paused: "As the head of the house, you issued a notice to the twelve parliamentary princes. At twelve o'clock tonight, they will rush to the palace to hold an emergency meeting, which will be chaired by His Majesty the King.
"
The housekeeper was startled for a moment, then nodded immediately: "Yes, Queen!"
"You have to block the news for your new king." Kardashian pointed at the housekeeper and said word by word.
"Of course!" the housekeeper immediately bowed and replied.
"Go." Kardashian waved her hand, stepped aside, and used her personal communicator to initiate a call request to a reliable person.
five minutes later.
Kardashian returned to the room, bent down and dragged Loren and said: "Your Majesty the King."
When Loren heard this title, he looked at his mother with tears on his face: "You...!"
"Wipe your tears. We are now going back to the palace to attend the Prince's Council." There was no emotion on Kardashian's cheeks, and she said in a very rational voice: "From now on, you are the king of Selva City. In
Before announcing Caen's death tomorrow, you need to make everyone loyal to you."
A series of sudden changes threw Loren's brain into confusion. He looked at his mother and didn't react for a moment.
"You don't have time, let's talk on the way." Kardashian pulled up her son without any explanation, turned to her female officer and ordered: "You go back first and prepare conference clothes for your new king."
"Yes, Queen!" The female official left quickly.
…
Around 11:30 late at night.
The royal family of Jena held a meeting of princes. Except for Payne, the other eleven princes arrived at the palace and entered the royal council hall, including Enzo, the commander of the border army.
After everyone entered the large conference hall, they took their seats.
"Does anyone know what happened?" A young prince asked everyone without knowing the reason.
"Who knows, maybe our king drank too much again."
"...I hope he can lead us to the battlefield today."
"Ha ha!"
Everyone communicated privately and laughed from time to time.
Enzo was sitting on the right side of the king's throne, holding his chin, very silent, and seemed a little out of place.
At the entrance of the palace, the guards and soldiers of the Eleventh Prince were all arranged in a special waiting hall. Their leaders, who were also familiar with each other, were gathering together and talking softly.
11:45.
While the princes were waiting in the conference hall, Enzo's communicator suddenly lit up. He lowered his head and glanced, his face instantly turned pale, and he was frightened inside.
After a brief silence, Enzo suddenly stood up and walked out. But when the remaining ten princes saw him leaving, no one asked or greeted him.
Enzo walked into the bathroom of the conference room and pushed the door open.
…
On the second floor of the palace, in the king's dressing room, eight female officials had already changed Loren into royal clothes.
The clothes were new, but the model was customized according to Caen's figure, so Loren was a little too wide and didn't fit well.
After the eight female officers helped Loren change her clothes, they stepped aside.
Kardashian stretched out her hand to lift Loren's left arm. Dressed in the queen's attire, she said in an unquestionable tone: "Your Majesty, don't be nervous. I will help you walk."
"Mom, I really don't know what I should do...!"
"You are the king, you don't need to say anything, leave everything to me." Kardashian said in a steady voice: "Let's go."
Loren was panicked and even a little confused, but after all, he had been a prince for more than 20 years. In this kind of living environment, his heart was far stronger than that of ordinary people of the same age.
With the support of his mother, Loren clenched his fists, tried his best to control his emotions, and slowly left the room.
A few minutes later, the housekeeper opened the door to the conference room.
The ten princes looked sideways at the door and saw Loren and Kardashian walking in side by side at the end of the luxurious carpet.
As soon as the two entered the room, the head of the house closed the door, and none of the house ministers followed. ?
The ten princes looked at Loren with astonishment, because he was wearing the king's fine clothes!
While everyone was in a daze, the mother and son had already arrived at the conference table. Under the gaze of everyone, one sat in the queen's seat and the other sat in the king's chair.
When things get to this point, if no one notices something is wrong, then there is simply something wrong with the brain.
"Queen, where is our king?" a prince asked expressionlessly.
Kardashian sat in her seat and said solemnly: "Unfortunately, our great King suddenly fell ill and passed away at Maisie Mansion two hours ago."
"What did you say?!"
"Why didn't we know?!"
"...!"
The room exploded instantly, and half of the ten princes stood up and questioned the mother and son.
"Did you ask Char to hold the meeting?"
"right."
"The king passed away, and the prince of parliament didn't even see the scene?!" A middle-aged man slapped the table and shouted: "This is ridiculous! What kind of bullshit meeting are we having here? I need to see Caen.
,meet my brother!”
"Yes, we want to see His Majesty the King!"
"...!"
Several people stood up and agreed.
Kardashian turned to look at them: "Tomorrow morning, we will announce the unfortunate death of the king. But tonight, we will establish a new king and swear allegiance."
As soon as these words came out, the middle-aged man who was slapping the table turned to look at Loren: "So, he has already put on the crown?"
"Of course, he is the only legal heir to the Jena royal family." Kardashian replied without hesitation.
"For the king to pass on the throne, the chief chamberlain must read out the edict, all members of the royal family must be present to witness it, and there must be a grand succession ceremony before the prince of the council can declare his allegiance!" The bearded middle-aged man pointed at Loren and roared.
Said: "He wore a rusty crown, sneaked into this room, and announced that he had taken over the royal family of Jena?! This is so funny!"
After the words fell, another prince stood up and said: "His Majesty the King has passed away. We have not seen his body, and the specific cause of death has not been confirmed or announced. Now that he is announcing his succession, I am afraid that he will not be able to convince the public."
"Don't you want to declare your allegiance?" Kardashian glanced at the bearded and other four people coldly.
"We need to know the cause of the king's death!" The bearded prince pushed away the chair.
When Loren saw the smell of gunpowder in the scene, he felt nervous. He stood up with sweat on his forehead and said, "Uncle Phil, father...!"
Before he could finish speaking, Phil suddenly turned around to look at Loren first, then walked over and asked in a compelling voice: "Do you know the cause of the king's death? Your Highness the Prince!"
This prince is in charge of the financial power of the Jena royal family. He has high prestige and has many children in the family.
Loren looked at his gloomy eyes and livid cheeks, and was stunned for a moment, with his eyes a little evasive.
Phil moved his eyes away from Loren's cheek and turned to look at Kardashian: "I am withdrawing from this meeting. When everything comes to light, I will declare my allegiance."
"We quit!"
The other three princes followed Phil without hesitation.
There were six other people present, including the prince, some of whom looked hesitant, and some who were silent, seeming to agree with Kardashian's statement.
After the four princes announced their withdrawal, they walked towards the door of the conference room.
"Squeak!"
At this moment, the two doors were pushed open, and Prince Payne walked in with a sword hanging on his waist, wearing a silver mechanical armor, and leading more than thirty personal guards.
As soon as everyone entered the conference hall, the housekeeper and others immediately closed the two doors and locked them with more than a dozen electronic locks.
Phil looked at the heavily armed Payne and his face changed slightly: "You entered with weapons...?"
Payne pulled out the sword from his waist and led more than thirty personal guards forward.
Felton felt bad. When he stepped back, he shook his head and said: "I just questioned...!"
"Whoosh!"
Payne suddenly accelerated.
"What are you going to do?! There are more than 400 people in my family, how dare you...!" Phil backed away, shouting in horror, his waist already pressed against the corner of the conference table.
Payne didn't say a word, just sprinted in front of Phil, swung the sword with his hands clasped together.
"Pfft!"
The blade passed by.
It was so quiet inside that you could hear a pin drop.
A second later, a line of blood appeared on Prince Phil's neck, his head tilted back, and his whole head hit the conference table with a thud.
Payne held the sword and turned to look behind him.
"Hoola la!"
More than thirty personal guards, with their faces covered and wearing mechanical armors, rushed up, pushed the other three princes who were running away to beg for mercy, pressed them to the ground, and chopped off their heads.
Payne strode forward, picked up the heads of the four people along the way, and placed them neatly on the royal meeting table. He held a sword in his hand, wiped the blood on his face, and asked in a hoarse voice: "We have to wait until tomorrow to swear allegiance."
? Gentlemen!"
"Hoola la!"
The remaining six people stood up, knelt on the ground, and shouted to Loren: "His Majesty, the great king, I, Neil, I, Stro... take an oath today...!"
The blood that spattered wantonly dyed Loren's crown red. He stared blankly at the group of people in front of him, his calm mother, and Payne who looked like a butcher, and his heart was shaken.
Payne glanced at the conference table and suddenly asked: "Where is Enzo?!"
…
Inside the ruins underground.
After Tong Zhan came back to life, the Sinner sat at the bar and said to him: "You can contact Zhang Yunxi. We have a lot of information that we can share with him."
