Episode 14: The Great Conspiracy, Section 3: Another Bloody Ceremony
"Why are you crying? Your emperor is not dead yet." When Corey saw the eyes of these old men, he became very angry. He grabbed the cloth bag and put it on the table next to him.
"Your Majesty, wait, I heard that His Majesty was suffering without knowing it. It is a capital crime." Hearing the cries of these ministers, Corey frowned and couldn't help cursing: "Have you cried enough? If you have cried enough, let's discuss what to do.
Rescue your emperor so that I can go back as soon as possible."
Hearing that the emperor was to be rescued, all the ministers present looked at Corey.
"Well, the former head of the Imperial Guard, I don't know how many Imperial Guards can listen to you." Corey has already understood the identities of the ministers in front of him one by one.
"A maximum of ten officers can do something for me on a personal basis, because the Imperial Guard is only loyal to the current emperor and is always a neutral party. It will not care about any factional disputes, even if it is usurping the throne, it is just against those who sit on the throne.
Those who are above will die." The former commander-in-chief of the Imperial Guard answered calmly.
"Then, who can tell me what kind of military force can be mobilized?" Corey really didn't expect that these guards were so stupid and loyal to the extreme, and they had no human touch at all.
The ministers in the hall began to discuss quietly. One of the ministers asked: "Since Prince Cory can see His Majesty, why not rescue His Majesty the Emperor first?"
Kerui really wanted to scold this minister for being stupid, but he still suppressed his anger and replied politely: "When the emperor came out, it was the time when he fell out with Narimu. This Narimu is amazing. Things are done very strictly.
, you won’t fail to notice that the emperor suddenly disappeared.”
"But Prince Corey, since the new emperor took the throne, he has made adjustments to the troops around the imperial capital. Now it can be said that except for your troops, all the troops around the imperial capital are his people."
"Ascending the throne, your Emperor Curasoni ascends the throne. Don't you need any ceremony? If you take the scepter and sit on the throne directly, you will be regarded as the emperor?" Corey suddenly remembered that he had never seen any kind of ceremony in the Kingdom of Curasoni.
The former Prime Minister was shocked, with a slight smile on his face: "Prince Corey reminded me wonderfully, there is still a grand ceremony before the real throne." At this point, he bowed deeply to Corey: "Continental Seven
Although there are some differences in etiquette between countries, the differences are not very big. This ceremony must be held."
Seeing the smile on the face of former Prime Minister Kurasoni, Corey asked: "You must have an idea."
"Yes, although we cannot mobilize the army, many external officials can come to the imperial capital to watch the ceremony through the ceremony. At this time, we can let some soldiers loyal to His Majesty sneak in. As long as His Majesty is invited to the ceremony, then Nalimu
The coronation has not yet been officially carried out, the Imperial Guard will definitely remain neutral, and the only thing left to do is to get rid of the diehards around Nalimu."
"As for the troops of the Nalim sect around the imperial capital, they will still dare to rebel once Narim is dead." When the former prime minister said this, he couldn't help but smile.
The original frustration and sadness were swept away from these ministers. Corey sneered in his heart, thinking that you, Kurasoni, have the largest population and the largest land, but your dominance was hundreds of years ago. I think the reason is
What these people say is actually much bigger than what they actually do.
"Then don't you know when you can start taking action?" Corey asked unhurriedly.
"Now that everyone has discussed the method, we will start contacting everyone tomorrow. Everyone should be careful. If something goes wrong, not only will you lose your life, but your family will also be uneasy." The former prime minister said unhurriedly, only
There is another sentence that is not stated clearly, that is, if it succeeds, these people will all be great contributors. But looking at the expressions on the faces of these ministers, you will naturally understand this meaning.
Seeing these ministers leaving slowly one by one, Corey smashed the cup in his hand on the ground: "These old bastards, they are not in a hurry at this time."
"Young Master, there is no need to be angry. Yasdine will unify the continent." Not to mention Corey, even the guards are used to doing what they say and not wasting any time. They also understand that the efficiency of doing things determines the prosperity of a kingdom.
Instead of this procrastinating work style.
"We also have some things to prepare, so you should hurry up and do it." Corey said to the guard beside him. The guard immediately nodded to express his understanding and trotted away from here.
When there were only two people in the room, Corey and Lace, Corey pulled over Lace and said, "In the past few days, you have to find a way to have Narimu hold the coronation ceremony as soon as possible. We will take action during the coronation ceremony."
"Well, in addition to the banquet that has been arranged in the past few days, we have also negotiated a contract between the two countries."
"As for the peace treaty, no matter what you agree to, it won't be implemented if Nalimu dies anyway. All you have to do is find a way to get him to be crowned faster." Corey said with a relaxed look.
After thinking for a while, Lai Si said: "Master, it seems that those ministers will not be ready in a few days. What if they are not ready yet." Lai Si asked worriedly. Keri was very surprised after hearing this.
Laughed a few times: "What can these losers do? They only need to prove the legality of our killing. For specific actions, our people will come. Nalim, let him die inexplicably. Of course, all he has
Don’t let go of any of your relatives.”
When Corey thought about Willy's death, his heart ached. This matter was closely related to Nalimu. At the same time, his followers must have Willy's blood on their hands. Only by killing them all would the murderer not be allowed to escape.
It would be better to kill by mistake than to let go of the person who killed Willy.
Early the next morning, just as Leisi thought, Narim sent the foreign minister to discuss cooperation between the two countries with Leisi.
After seeing some of the terms proposed by the Kingdom of Curasoni, Lace casually threw the document to the civil servant behind her. Before the civil servant could speak, Lace said first: "May I ask the respected Minister of Foreign Affairs, I can sign the contract on behalf of Emperor Yasi.
, then who will sign the contract?"
"That is of course His Majesty the Emperor of our country." The Foreign Minister did not understand the purpose of Lace's question.
Lai Si smiled coldly: "Who is the emperor of your country?"
When the Foreign Secretary heard this, he jumped up: "What does Prince Cory mean by this?"
"It's not interesting. It's just a person who has not been crowned. How can anyone recognize the identity of Emperor Ji? If this peace treaty is spread, what will be the face of our Yasi." Lace did not give in at all, learning from Corey's usual arrogance.
tone.
"This!" The Foreign Minister was speechless. He knew that what Lace said was not wrong at all. Since there was no coronation ceremony, his name was not legitimate, his words were not smooth, and he could not sign any treaty as an emperor. This cannot be blamed on Corey's bad words.
, said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, Prince Kerui, please allow me to go back first. I will give you a satisfactory answer soon."
Lace waved her hand, and then a civil servant escorted Foreign Minister Curasoni away.
"Check, when is the nearest good day for a coronation?" Seeing that there were no outsiders in the living room, Corey walked out from the screen. Immediately, a civil servant came out and answered: "Five days later, I have checked
Ming, if the coronation ceremony is not held in five days, we will have to wait another month and a half."
"Well, I don't think this guy will wait so long. After all, he also wants to become a real emperor soon, instead of just holding the emperor's scepter." Corey sneered, but the officials around him did not dare to laugh. One of them
Said: "Sir, if we put more pressure on him, we will force him to be crowned the fifth queen."
"Okay." Corey clapped his hands and said, "Just go ahead and do it."
At this time, Minister of Foreign Affairs Curasoni had already arrived at the palace.
"What, he is unwilling to sign the contract, does he think I am not qualified?" Narimu was a little dissatisfied.
Upon seeing this, the Foreign Minister hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I still think that I would like to ask you to complete the coronation ceremony as soon as possible. This will also let the people of the kingdom know that there is a new emperor, and the old things should be replaced."
"It's not that I don't want to be crowned, it's just..." Narimu originally wanted to say that there were still many things he wasn't ready for, and he was afraid that being too impatient would cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.
"Please step aside and make preparations for the coronation ceremony first. Let me think about it again." Nalimu waved his hand and signaled all the ministers to leave. He sat alone on the emperor's throne and thought deeply.
There are still eight days left for Narachi's coming-of-age ceremony. A lot of preparations have been made in the palace. If you want to change it, it won't be too troublesome. You just need to move many things out of the ancestral temple and replace them with some things for the coronation.
present.
The civil servants under Corey waited for a day but did not receive a reply from the Foreign Minister Curasoni. After some discussion, they came to the Foreign Minister's office.
"Sir, what our prince means is that we will leave here in ten days, that is, after Princess Narachi's coming-of-age ceremony is completed. At the same time, we have decided to propose to Princess Narachi at Princess Narachi's coming-of-age ceremony."
Upon entering, the leading civil servant directly explained the purpose of his visit.
Curasoni's Foreign Minister couldn't help but stood up: "What should we do about the contract?"
"This is very simple. After your emperor completes the coronation ceremony, you can send messengers between the two countries. There is no need to sign it here in a hurry. Moreover, our prince has no objection to these treaties and has not modified or
Let’s discuss it again.” The leading civil servant slowly sat on the chair at the top and said calmly.
"This, this." The Foreign Minister suddenly ran out of ideas. "Please sit down, please. I need to ask His Majesty the Emperor for instructions."
"Please." The civil servants drank the drinks brought by the attendants leisurely. They had already made a bet that Nalim would be crowned in five days, thus completing the task assigned by Kerui.
Just as these civil servants had guessed, the foreign minister entered the palace in a hurry and asked to see Narimu.
"What, say it again." Nalimu became a little anxious when he heard this. He really needed Corey to provide him with a batch of high-quality weapons. He had even chosen his attacking opponents. According to Narimu's instructions,
Imagine that after the new emperor ascends the throne, he will immediately expand the territory of the kingdom. What a great thing. But now that Corey is leaving, the signing of the contract is delayed and we don’t know when it will be finalized.
The Foreign Minister was a little nervous and reminded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, there will be a good day in five days. I think even if it is a bit hasty, a decent coronation ceremony can still be held grandly."
"Then, what does he mean?" The Foreign Minister understood that the person Nalimu was talking about was naturally referring to Kerui, and was asking whether Kerui would agree to sign the contract immediately after his coronation.
"I'll go and ask clearly."
The Foreign Minister was about to resign when Narimu stopped him: "If he has no objection, you can make arrangements quickly. Becoming the official emperor as soon as possible is not a bad thing."
After the Foreign Secretary expressed his understanding, he trotted back to his office and told several civilian officials under Corey about the situation.
When the civil servants heard this, one of the leaders immediately said: "There is no problem with the content of the peace treaty. Since His Majesty the Emperor of your country will hold a coronation ceremony in five days, I have no reason not to sign the contract. It will be scheduled after the coronation."
On the third day, the contract was signed the day before Princess Narachi’s coming-of-age ceremony.”
"When will the goods agreed in the peace treaty be delivered to us?" the foreign minister asked again, and the civil servant smiled slightly: "Since we have agreed on everything, I will send a message back to the country now to tell the caravan to set off.
Bring with you the items your country needs."
"That's great, thank you very much." Kurasoni's foreign minister finally relaxed his nervousness, thinking that Emperor Narimu would definitely praise him.
And several civil servants even laughed secretly in their hearts, Nalimu had already set a death date for himself.
Suddenly, the Imperial Capital of Curasoni was in chaos. It was not a turmoil, but it became a lot busier. You could see palace attendants and protocol officials everywhere, busy non-stop.
The coronation ceremony was held five days later, and soon almost everyone knew the news. Of course, including those ministers who were preparing to take action, it was just that for the first time they felt that time was too tight, and they did not know whether they could put everything into place.
Get ready to welcome this grand ceremony.
On the other hand, Corey and Lace had rarely been quiet these days. Narimu seemed to feel that everything had been settled with Corey, so he excused himself from preparing for the ceremony and did not prepare any more banquets for Corey, nor did he send anyone to discuss anything.
Four days passed in the blink of an eye. On the eve of the ceremony, Corey, dressed in black and followed by a small team of swordsmen, once again sneaked into the Curasoni Palace.
"Ah, what I like most is night, where you can do many unknown activities." Corey said with a smile as soon as he opened the door.
Emperor Curasoni had a dark look on his face, after all, his own son would be killed tomorrow.
"Prince Cory is really amazing. It seems that you bleed every time you appear in a ceremony, and all the blood you bleed is the blood of the royal family." Emperor Curaconi didn't know whether he was joking or speaking out of anger.
Corey chuckled: "You regret it. It's still too late. At most, I can just leave."
"That disdainful person will not regret dying." Emperor Curasoni said bitterly.
At this time, Corey waved his hand, and a person behind him came out and started to deal with the lock on Emperor Curasoni's foot. This lock was no ordinary lock. Corey tried it once, but there was no way to open it, so he had to find a thief.
Experts are here to help.
Seeing the lock on his foot being opened, Emperor Curasoni was both happy and a little uneasy: "It seems that Prince Cory has many capable people. This kind of lock is used by the royal family to lock secret rooms."
"Hey, it's not a big deal. Your Majesty, you should change your clothes quickly." As soon as Corey finished speaking, a man who looked very similar to Emperor Curasoni stood out behind him.
The wooden house can still deceive people.
Emperor Curasoni took off his clothes and put on a black suit before Corey said: "I have invited those ministers who are loyal to you. Are you going to meet them?"
"It's good, we have Prince Laucore." After all, Emperor Curasoni didn't trust Corey very much, so he felt relieved to see ministers who were loyal to him.
The two swordsmen carried Emperor Curasoni on their backs and left the palace after a few ups and downs.
Corey really hated seeing the grown man crying, so he pushed Emperor Curasoni into the hall and left quietly, leaving the emperor and his ministers to cry for a while.
"Are you all ready?" Corey asked the two guards following him.
"Master, don't worry. We are good at this kind of thing. Let alone five days, even if you give the order now, you will still have time tomorrow." The two guards replied respectfully.
Corey secretly laughed in his heart. He is good at sabotage. I dare to say that he is good at sabotage. It is as if he is the king of destruction and leads a group of guys who like to cause destruction. But this is just what he thinks in his mind, and he does not say it.
come out.
"You guys go and have a rest. I want to see something very exciting tomorrow." Keri waved his hand, indicating to the guards that they could go to rest without following him. The guards bowed and retreated, leaving only Keri in the small courtyard.
There is nothing unsafe for a person here, as there are many people hiding in the dark around to protect him.
The next morning, Nalimu's coronation ceremony was held at ten o'clock that day.
"Ah, why are you dressed like this?" Corey asked with surprise when seeing Lace in women's clothing.
Only then did Lace feel the surprise: "Master, didn't you say that you would also go today?" Lace thought to herself, since Corey wanted to reveal his identity, she didn't have to pretend.
Corey smiled evilly and pointed at the clothes on his body. Only then did Lace notice that these clothes were exactly what Corey wore when he pretended to be the Grand Magister Lei.
"Quickly, go change clothes, you are still pretending to be me today." Corey pushed Lace back to the room with a wicked smile.
At half past nine, all the dignitaries who attended the ceremony rushed to the stage, and naturally the Magician's Guild was indispensable. Lace, as Corey, sat on the main stage. Corey put on a mask, and then slowly
Walk towards the venue.
The official in charge of the protocol noticed that everyone was wearing magician clothes, and pointed to the magic guild's podium: "Guys, please come over there, the ceremony will start soon, don't make any noise."
Corey raised his hand to fend off the concierge and walked directly towards the main stage. Behind him, two people wearing magician robes also followed Corey towards the main stage.
"Bold, who dares to invade the coronation ceremony?" A group of guards rushed up with weapons.
Corey slowly took off the hat on the magician's robe and threw the mask to the officer of the Guards: "What did you just say? Say it again louder."
Seeing Corey's face, not only the officers of the Imperial Guards but also the Imperial Guards, everyone at the ceremony was shocked. They thought that the terrible great mage Lei was already dead, but who appeared again at this time?
The commander of the Imperial Guard immediately looked in the direction of the main stage, obviously intending to ask for help from Corey.
At this time, Corey loudly asked the audience: "Where is this place and what kind of ceremony is this?"
Before Corey finished speaking, Narimu rushed to the stage with a group of guards. Upon seeing this, he pointed at Corey and said loudly: "You lost to Prince Corey of Yasi last time. You were seriously injured.
, how dare you go crazy here."
Nalimu appeared. This was the smoothest thing in Kerui's heart. He originally thought that if he didn't appear, his men would not know if they could bring him out. Now he would look up to the sky and laugh. Nalimu was laughing.
It was inexplicable. Suddenly Corey's laughter stopped: "Here, bring me my clothes."
My young master, this self-proclaimed statement made everyone present feel as if they had heard it before.
At this time, Lace, who appeared as Corey, came over with a cloak, a sword and other items.
Just when everyone felt that another fierce fight was about to begin, Corey had already thrown away the magic robe, revealing a fancy outfit. He took the cloak from Lace and put it on himself. Then Lace personally helped Corey put it on.
With the sword system, wear the accessories on your body.
"What, what is going on?" Nalimu yelled in horror.
Kerui walked up to the main stage unhurriedly and kicked Nalimu in the leg. Nalimu immediately fell to his knees. Although the surrounding guards knew they were outmatched, they drew their swords and charged at him.
Xiang Corey.
"Stop." A thick voice stopped the movements of several guardsmen.
I saw the magician behind Corey taking off his robe and sitting on the emperor's throne in front of everyone's surprised eyes. At this time, the ministers who were loyal to the emperor had already prepared everything, shouted, and counted.
Thousands of people rushed into the square and confronted the Praetorian Guards.
"Retreat, the Imperial Guards are loyal to the royal family." Emperor Curasoni waved his hand.
Originally, the Imperial Guard had no intention of taking action, but just planned to wait and see.
Narimu crawled on the ground and punched the floor with hatred. Corey sneered twice: "Hate it, hate yourself for not being cruel enough and not killing the emperor, right?" Corey chuckled twice: "Forget it.
I introduced myself, and by the way, I, Master Lei Corey, have a personal grudge against you."
Corey faced Nalimu at this time, and the hatred in his heart could no longer be suppressed. He originally planned to let an unknown soldier kill Nalimu, but at this time he slowly drew out his sword. This sword was very ordinary, but it was
The one that Willy gave him back then.
Blood splattered everywhere. Before Nalim could understand what had happened, blood was already gushing from his neck.
Although Emperor Kurasoni knew that Narimu would die, he still couldn't bear to watch Narimu die in front of his eyes after all.
"Traitors die." Following Corey, another person wearing a magic robe was Mengka. He did not intend to let the people of Curasoni hate Corey. He shouted while holding the grief-stricken Corey
Help him behind the stage.
"Traitors die, kill them well." At that moment, many people who had planned it in advance started shouting, and instantly the people in the square also started to roar. Looking at the square again, the entire ceremony stage was stained with blood.
On the pure white ceremony table, the red color is even more conspicuous.
Corey, who was behind the stands, knelt down with eyes wide and raised the sword in his hand: "Brother, I avenged you. I killed that bastard with my own hands."
"Sir, please get up quickly. You must not feel that you are out of personal vendetta at this time." Laqi'ao was very anxious. No one in Curasoni could see this scene. While comforting Corey, he called his subordinates.
Block those who are about to come.
"I, I don't care, I don't care. Who dares to do anything to me." Corey continued to cry.
At this time, Emperor Curasoni stood up in the stands and waved to the people in the audience. The audience quickly became quiet. Laqi'ao heard the silence around him, fearing that someone might hear Corey's cry, he suddenly
A slap hit Corey on the back of the neck.
"Quickly, carry the master to a quiet place." Lachiao said hurriedly. Of course the soldiers understood Lachiao's intention and carried Corey away with all hands and feet. At this time, Lachiao said to Lace:
"Miss Lace, you need to come forward again."
Lai Si nodded and walked back to the stage side by side with La Qi Ao.
