Chapter Five Hundred and Eighth Report

Marina here hasn't come back to her senses for a long time because the speed is too fast. She also knew the previous information. She had thought she had seen through Li Huailin's thoughts. This time, Li Huailin should have helped Duke Martley to deal with Duke Rotner first, because Duke Rotner's soldiers are really elite and have already caught up with the troops of the regular imperial army. Therefore, although it is a bit difficult to kill Duke Rotner with Maltley's troops, it should be possible to fight with Li Huailin's command.

But although she thought she could fight, it would take at least one month for both sides to fight. She still had to rely on the battle to defend the city to first consume the power of the opponent, and then fight against counterattacks and other ways. So when she gave Anthony an idea, she ordered a month. Unexpectedly, the fight was finished in three days, and the two dukes were taking over. How could you live?

"Queen, Queen?" Anthony on the side looked at Marina with no response and shouted a few times.

"Oh, Your Highness, I'm sorry I was a little scared. Is this true?" Malina couldn't believe it. The information only contained the results, and there was no process. Malin had no idea how this kind of battle could be fought.

"It should be true." Anthony nodded and said, "Wilin has sent Marquis McCann to me to report, and it should be still on the way now."

"This is really amazing..." Marina couldn't help but say, "The Duke of Aquitaine is so powerful that it makes people a little scary."

"I was a little surprised before, but thinking about his previous record, I think it seems to be acceptable. After all, the Silver Wind Guard has lasted for a week. Thinking about this, Duke Lotner has blocked for a day, it seems that he is already quite mighty..." Anthony said.

"Your Highness said that too." Marina nodded, "It's indeed a bit troublesome now. I didn't expect that the Duke of Aquitaine is so fast. Now your Highness must come forward. Otherwise, if two great dukes in the Empire will be killed in a row and the king will not come forward again, the Empire will be in chaos."

"I'm just asking you about this." Anthony just asked. But Marina didn't hear it because she was standing there. "Now the question is how to explain my illness will be cured so quickly."

"I have a way," Marina said suddenly.

"Oh, what?" Anthony asked.

"Your Highness, you won't come forward for the time being. Let me come forward to help the minister convey their meaning and you, so that you can continue to 'rehabilitation'." Marina said.

"Oh, this... doesn't matter?" Anthony didn't believe Marina, but was afraid that he would not be able to suppress the situation if he was not present. The Empire had just been established. Many of these ministers were old teams from the previous Rein Dynasty, and probably hadn't completely returned. It's okay for me to say that I am no longer afraid that Marina could not suppress them.

"I just convey your meaning on my behalf, and I'm not a ruling country. I believe they won't go anywhere," said Marina.

"Well..." Anthony nodded, "That's right, that's OK. Marquis McCann is coming soon, and those ministers should know about this. They should come to me soon, you must be ready."

"I know." Marina nodded.

Just as this sentence was finished, a palace guard knocked at the door here, "Your Highness the King, Prime Minister Mah and several ministers want to see you, and you have already arrived at the door of the inner hall."

"Here you come." Anthony said. "You go and see the situation first. I must protect Huailin anyway. See what those people react. We are seeing how to protect them."

"Yeah." Marina nodded.

After walking out of the room, Marin saw the captain of the Palace Guards who were about to report to Anthony. Marina also knew him. Originally, this guy was the captain of the guards of Anthony, the First Legion, with excellent martial arts skills. Now he has been transferred to be the captain of the Palace Guards and is still protecting Anthony.

"His Highness," Dernat immediately lowered his head and asked, "Those ministers seem to have something important to report to, what does the King say?"

Delnat knew that Anthony was pretending to be sick. He was the captain of the guards. It was impossible not to know about this kind of thing, but at that time he did not know why Anthony pretended to be sick. However, he did not ask much about His Highness the King's affairs, just to take care of His Highness the King's safety.

"Let the ministers go to the hall, and I will deal with them later." Marina said.

"Yes." Delnat headed, and immediately let the people below convey it.

"You look forward to this place and don't let anyone in casually." Marina solemnly ordered, then went back to change her clothes.

After a while, all the ministers were gathered in the main hall, and more and more ministers came, and they were able to receive news for them that the two dukes of the Empire were killed at the same time. This was definitely not a trivial matter. As more and more people came, it had become a meeting similar to a meeting. A group of ministers looked at Anthony who had not appeared yet. His Highness the King was attacked and was still recovering from injuries, but the previous guards said that they would come here to wait for a while before the court meeting could be held. Could it be that the king could come out to preside over the meeting? The church pastor has come to treat it?

Everyone knows that the new emperor does not like the church. Even the Pope did not come to the throne ceremony. The church probably got angry. He has not come to see Anthony once so far. He heard that His Highness the Emperor was injured, someone asked to go to the church's pastor for treatment, but Anthony refused. He said that he only accepted the treatment of the pharmacist, and that the medicine would be much slower than magic. Could it be that His Highness the King was also a little anxious and compromised with them?

The answer was soon revealed, because with a notice, Queen Marina appeared in everyone's sight, and she stepped onto the throne in the middle, but did not sit down, but waited for a guard next to her to bring another chair and then sat next to the empty throne.

"Greetings to the Queen." All the ministers immediately saw the ritual, and the impatient Prime Minister Mah immediately said after seeing the ritual, "Your Highness, do you know that Your Highness the King can meet us? There are really important things now."

"His Royal Highness is still recuperating and cannot get up yet. If you have any questions, please tell me, because it is conveyed to His Royal Highness." Marina said calmly.

"This...this matters..." Maher continued.

"I know what you are going to say, but wait a little while for Prime Minister Mach, and there is another person waiting outside, so I'll invite him in first." Marina interrupted Mach and waved to the guard next to her.

"Please go to the palace to meet you." The guard beside him shouted.

"McCann?" All the ministers were stunned. Why did he come so soon?

McCann had just arrived at the City of God Blessing. He had asked to see the king, but was notified to wait at the door until he went to the hall. He found that not all the ministers had come. Now he was in trouble. Originally, McCann wanted to meet His Royal Highness alone, because he knew that King Anthony and Li Huailin had a good relationship and wanted to discuss how to deal with this matter first. Now he met directly in the hall. This is not good, because the following group of ministers are not easy to deal with.

The biggest reaction to Li Huailin's killing of the two dukes is that these people and the king should be protecting Li Huailin, and there is no problem. Ordinary civilians and nobles are killed by another noble and are in charge of their affairs. Anyway, they will be ruled. Will they care who will be the duke? It has nothing to do with them. Only these ministers are more difficult to deal with. You said that Li Huailin killed the two dukes for no reason. They are not dukes yet. Will Li Huailin kill them in the future? So they will definitely jump out.

This is what McCann is worried about now. If all the ministers force His Highness to deal with Li Huailin, His Highness may not be able to hold on, otherwise all the ministers will strike, how will the empire operate?

But when he arrived in the hall, McCann found something was wrong, because there was no one on the king's throne, and the queen Malina, who usually didn't appear, was sitting next to him. He still didn't know that Anthony was "injured", so he was directly dragged to work by Li Huailin and never had the opportunity to inquire about this matter.

"Uh...Who to His Highness the Queen...Where is His Highness the King?" asked McCann.

"His Royal Highness was assassinated and injured. He is recuperating now and cannot see guests." Marina replied.

"What!" McCann was extremely surprised. "Is it very serious?"

"It's indeed a bit serious. Although you are not in danger of life, you are relatively weak and need to rest now." Marina replied.

"That assassin..." McCann wanted to ask clearly, but was interrupted by Marina.

"Okay, this matter has passed, let's deal with your matter first." Marina said, "I have just received the news. It is said that the Duke of Aquitaine had a war with Duke Martley and Duke Lotner, and you were involved."

"Yes..." McCann nodded, "In fact, I just want His Highness the King to report on this matter. Can I meet His Highness the King and report on the situation?"

"I'm afraid this won't work. Your Highness the King needs rest now. You can report it to me first and I can convey it to you." Marina immediately refused.

"This..." McCann wanted to report to His Highness the King first. If they reported to the ministers first, they would definitely start a fuss immediately. He didn't know that the ministers had basically received this news, but they had not confirmed it yet.

"What's wrong, Marquis McCann, is there anything that cannot be said?" asked Marina.

"This...well." McCann nodded with a mud, and then directly took the two wooden boxes behind him to his side. "Your Highness, this is the heads of Dukes Martley and Duke Lotner..."

"Ah? This!" The hall immediately became chaotic. (To be continued...)
