, The fastest update to the latest chapter of the Rise of the Empire, Total War!
Until she was taken to the room prepared for her by the servant, Elizabeth’s head was still in a dizzy state.
Emperor Derekssen’s attitude towards her is not surprising. Not only did he not have the sadness of his nephew’s death, but he also did not anger her because she was a princess of the Holy Roman Empire. On the contrary, he was actually very good to her, as if to himself. The daughter is average.
Although Elizabeth was only nine years old, she could still detect something wrong. She sat on the wide bed alone, swaying her thin legs, thinking about the reason for Emperor Derekssen’s abnormality.
What she didn’t know was that at the same time, Emperor Derekssen, who was surrounded by the Guards, was walking towards the dungeon of the Yulia Palace. His face no longer had the kindness that he had treated Elizabeth before, instead he was deeply moved. The shady bird of prey.
There was a team of soldiers guarding the entrance of the dungeon. When they saw Derrick coming first, they quickly stood the gun beside them, raised their right hand forward, palm down, and made a standard Roman military salute. Derrick nodded at them first. Respond, and then walk into the dungeon.
The dungeon was gloomy. Although a torch was inserted one meter apart on both sides of the corridor to illuminate the dim dungeon, it still gave people an unspeakable sense of depression.
There was a smell and humidity in the air. Derrick first glanced at each cell. There was basically a prisoner in it. They had shaved heads, messed up and down, and exuded the stench of urine and sweat mixed together. , Their expressions were full of numbness, their eyes were absent, and they didn’t react at all to the sudden appearance of Emperor Derekxian.
These people are all imprisoned political prisoners. Some of them openly opposed the emperor’s rule, some were intent on assassinating the emperor, or they incited the army to rebel, but they were not sentenced to death because of the Roman nobles, but were thrown into the dungeon. .
Derrick did not pay attention to the prisoners first. He stepped on the sewage in the dungeon corridor, walked inside, and then stopped in front of a cage that held female prisoners. His slightly cloudy eyes stared at the prisoners sleeping inside, and the corners of his mouth were exposed. A disdainful smile.
“Open the prison door, I want to go in.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the warden who had been following him quickly took out a bunch of keys and opened the cell door. The prisoner inside heard the movement of opening the cell door, and raised his head reflexively and saw Emperor Derek Xian.
“You…” She opened her mouth, and as soon as she spoke, she was interrupted by the old emperor. She saw the old man in Toga robe walked into the cage under the guard of the soldiers and looked at the prisoners on the ground condescendingly. Said: “My dear sister, how are you doing?”
“…”
Silent, speechless.
The woman he called his sister just sat quietly on the ground and looked at Emperor Derekssen with a plain gaze. After a long time, she chuckled and said, “Brother, if you are here to mock me specially, That’s not necessary, I’m already your prisoner.”
“No, I’m here to tell you something about Lucius.” Derrick said first. He looked at his biological sister at the same time. Although the woman in front of him had some stains on her body and her hair was messy, but from there The noble temperament of the past can still be seen on the face.
However, after hearing her son’s name, her calmness just disappeared instantly, replaced by a flash of panic in her eyes.
“What’s wrong with Lucius?” she asked nervously, “Lucius doesn’t know anything. You can’t involve him.”
“Haha.” Derrick sneered first. He sat on a chair moved by a soldier, looked at his sister, and said, “Lukius is dead. He was poisoned on the Kuyawei continent. He died, his body was brought back by his loyal adjutant.”
“what?”
The woman’s eyes widened, and she shouted out: “This is impossible! He has no enemies in Kuyawei. Who will kill him by poisoning?”
“This is the case, Turia, I can take you to see his body.”
“No…impossible…” The woman didn’t listen to what Derrick said first, and she kept repeating denials. Lucius was her only son. How could he die so easily?
Suddenly, she suddenly raised her head, staring at the old emperor with those scarlet eyes, and shouted, “It must be you! You killed Lucius, and you said it was an irrelevant person. Derek first, you are so cruel, Lucius obviously likes you the most!”
Seeing her appearance, Emperor Derekxian was a little helpless. This was obviously going crazy. He knew that it would be useless to say more, so he got up and prepared to leave, but Turia was in trouble at this moment, wearing like a cheetah. Rick rushed over first, trying to hurt him with his teeth and claws. Fortunately, the guards beside the emperor found out in time and kicked her in the abdomen, kicked her whole body again, and hit the wall hard. , Shrank into a ball in pain.
The old emperor was taken aback by the sudden change, but he did not show a panic look, but glanced at the woman in the corner in disgust, flicked his sleeves, and walked out of the cage.
His sister Turia had united with the nobles a few months ago to try to poison his eldest son, making the second son who was closer to her the heir of the empire, but this court plot was exposed the night before the operation started, and there was a large number of them that night. The heavily armed Janissaries rushed into the homes of all those involved in the plot ~www.mtlnovel.com~ and arrested them. All of the court servants were hanged, and the nobles involved were either expelled for treason, executed, or thrown into prison. Turia was one of those thrown into prison.
…
Walking out of the dungeon, Derrick exhaled a breath of breath in his chest and inhaled fresh air into his lungs. He looked at the sky full of stars and thought for a while. He went straight back to the study, and at the same time summoned the adjutant Bib who had escorted the corpse back. Luce.
In today’s conversation with Princess Elizabeth, he probably understood what happened at the time. To be honest, he did not believe that the Holy Roman Empire would make such a stupid move to poison another empire that had a good relationship with them. The generals, especially on the eve of the upcoming war with other countries, this is undoubtedly causing trouble for themselves.
However, there was a nameplate of an officer of the Holy Roman Empire left on the scene. He was still nearby at the time of the incident. It is impossible to explain this. He still needs to listen to Biblus’s opinion to make the most correct one. judge.
Although Hariand’s family was involved in the court drug case, he was also a nobleman and general of the empire. He represented the dignity of the Roman Empire in a foreign country, and he was poisoned outside. Derrick had to ask the country involved to give a report. Only by confession can the dignity of Rome be restored.
