1955 The Magician

 The magician quietly put on the robe that hid his whereabouts. Even though he knew that today would go smoothly, he still wanted to witness up close the transfer of power in the kingdom that he had served for many years.

.

The building where the king handled matters was closed for a long time. When breakfast time was over and all schedules were supposed to be on track, the building where the king handled matters reopened.

At this time, the king had already put on the most solemn attire, and the troops behind him were all in uniform. Everyone looked so solemn and solemn, as if they were about to be greeted by the grandest event in the world.

ceremony.

Behind them, there was a prison car that was slowly approaching. The guards stuffed a man wearing a hood into the prison car and led the others out of the castle, which was closed to ordinary people.

The magician in a long robe slowly fell from the periphery of his magic tower and followed the prison car to the center of the square.

At this time, the square was filled with flowers. The fountain, which was originally only filled with water at night, started playing music early.

It's just that the central area of ​​the square, where people used to come and go, was conscripted by the escort.

Here, on the night before that day, a execution platform of black trees was woven.

The luxurious carriage slowly drove through the crowd and arrived under the stage.

The guards responsible for the execution took the man off the prison car and hung him on the hanging rod of the gallows in front of many people.

After this person appeared, the bustling people who were originally expecting the celebration to be held fell silent instantly.

They didn't know exactly what happened last night, but they knew that this person's appearance was closely related to today's ceremony.

The palace guard is indeed the most elite force in the country.

They quickly completed this process, leaving only the rattling sound between the chains and the prisoners.

And when the prison cars retreated and the executioners sat on the high platform, everyone discovered that the person executing the order was the consul of the royal capital whom they were familiar with.

This man, who always stood by the young prince's side to assist him in his work, was one of the well-known local nobles.

For him to carry out this trial involving prisoners shows how amazing the weight of the person hanging on it is.

Curiosity is the nature of every citizen. Such a terrifying thing has been hung up in the square. The people around him did not retreat. On the contrary, they surrounded him, and more and more people gathered around him.

The surrounding guards didn't seem to resent the crowd of ordinary people. They were just responsible for surrounding the high platform and preventing too many crowded people from approaching.

Then, instructions one after another were issued from the palace.

A tall black horse with a white herald knight sitting on it.

He handed the red king's script to the consul who was responsible for pronouncing sentences and informing.

The first message read out by the person in charge of the execution made the entire people of the royal capital cheer.

"Our new king has been registered. He is our former young prince and is now our king."

Yes, you heard it right, our country has changed its king, and the young prince who was once supposed to succeed successfully ascended the throne of the emperor where he was supposed to sit.

When this news was read out by the city's governor, he was greeted with thunderous applause and cheers.

Since this prince has been doing some infrastructure construction and work for the people, his reputation in the royal capital is not generally good.

The aloof king has always appeared in this city with an attitude of not taking care of things. No, when the old king, who was also in charge of things, just gave up, the new king was very ambitious and wanted to do something.

He tried his best, but the result was not very good. Apart from making the royal capital a mess, there was no unnecessary action.

Probably because the initial experience was very disappointing, the king adopted another method, which was to take more care. If there were too many mistakes, he would simply ignore them.

Therefore, he delegated his power to many of his close subordinates, and these subordinates had to act according to their conscience.

For those with a little bit of talent, things that are acceptable in appearance can be handled with ease, but if they are playboys or mediocre people who can't do anything, then the government affairs will be handled as chaotic as garbage.

It took a long time for the people of the fifth period to adapt to the king's ruling methods.

In recent years, when the young prince gradually grew up and began to consciously take power back into his own hands, this situation slowly improved.

And this improvement is related to the daily life of every ordinary person. Of course, they will be very keen to discover who brought them that kind of happy life.

Even when the young prince was still underage, most of the public hoped that he could step into power early.

Little did they know that the original king's governing philosophy gave the current king many loopholes to exploit.

Before the young prince reached adulthood, he began to gradually consolidate the scattered power back into his hands.

This is why he just held his eldest brother down, and after reaching a superficial transfer of power, the real power actually fell into his hands.

It was because of this work that he started doing it a few years ago, and now it is just a natural change of hands.

So the current scene of everyone cheering and celebrating is not unusual.

When the consul informed everyone that after this punishment was over, their dearest young king would hold his coronation ceremony on the platform of the palace, the citizens of the entire city fell into another round of chaos.

In the midst of carnival.

The crowd watching the excitement dispersed a lot. They rushed home one after another, put on their most luxurious clothes, took flowers and various delicacies, and returned to a place they thought would be very lively.

The best places to watch this grand ceremony are around the square and under the palace.

Suddenly this morning, which was still normal, the whole city was filled with the smell of flowers and delicious food.

Those merchants who were also happy for their king began to take out their own discount leaflets and contribute their own efforts to this grand ceremony.

Sweet croissants, soft cream cakes, and countless bright flowers just buried the whole city.

Everyone who was shocked by this good news had forgotten that there was still a prisoner hanging on their execution ground.
