00162 The Man, The Woman's Reason

“Me, give me a good reason. ”

Laura says you're pathetic. You know that this is a meaningless act. I grinned.

“Think about it. The Empress is monopolizing the military. Except for the change bags in the rear, the entire Imperial Army is out of Elizabeth von Habsburg's hands. ”

“Imperial court officials are so handsome.... ”

“The more urgent the situation is, the more power the military is. Do you understand, Laura? She is the most powerful ruler in the empire. ”

I touched her little ass. Laura grimaces occasionally and exhales a hot breath, perhaps because of the foreign body in her stomach.

“To the military, to the military. It takes more power or at least equal power to defeat the princess. The palace officials have no troops. Then we need to attract the Queen Dowager's henchmen, or bring in the change bags. ”

But there was no news like that.

“Rumor has it that the princess herself had a breakthrough. When the emperor ordered the entire people of the capital to be evicted, he withdrew without following the imperial decree... Hehe. I can see it in my heart. ”

If the palace aristocrats were truly powerful, they would have spread malicious rumors about the Queen Elizabeth, regardless of means and means. It is natural for a princess to retire. It's the right thing to do. You must have tried to instill that awareness.

However, only gossip favors the Empress. Rather, the people are angry with the palace nobles, the emperor and the second emperor.

“What will it be like for the people? Elizabeth III has stopped the Demon Prince from coming to ruin. But as soon as the nobles left, the Imperial Army lost the capital without hesitation. That's what it would look like. ”

Rosenberg's change bag was not well fought and was expelled from the territory.

Prince Rudolf was defeated in Austerlitz's hills.

The change force and the central force have all been destroyed. Then the third princess appeared like a comet and confronted the Demon King's army. Even though there were 100,000 troops gathered in the Demon King's army, the Third Empress managed a small number of troops to achieve a truly miraculous victory…….

“People don't know the details of how the war went down. ”

There was no distortion like this.

In fact, the triumphs of the third princess in battle were small. It was just a tactical victory.

From a strategic point of view, the third empress constantly retreated and gave up the capital of the empire. Such a fact was hidden in the glowing opening of a tactical victory. People were cheering for the visible victory.

“My guess is that the emperor and the second emperor have already fallen to Elizabeth's puppet show. The people who are really abandoned are not the Empress, but them.... ”

* * *

“Do, brother. Do me a favor."

The man said extremely cautiously.

The woman sitting at the table replied without taking her eyes off the document.

“Yes, tell me, brother. ”

“Take me to Avamamma, for once. ”

“I'm sorry, I can't do that. ”

The answer is yes. The man bites his teeth.

The second prince of Habsburg, Ferdinand von Habsburg.

A twenty-four year old boy was not eager to become emperor. In fact, he was not interested in the situation at all. Far be it from him to take on such an important position, Ferdinand thought.

But power was precious. To enjoy life in luxury, a certain amount of power was necessary. Ferdinand works with his brother the Crown Prince while raising his faction.

A faction of just the right size. Your brother, Prince Rudolf, or your sister, Princess Elizabeth, needed the help of the Second Crown Prince's Faction to win the succession dispute and win the throne.

You cannot be emperor yourself. However, we can create an emperor. Ferdinand was satisfied with the role of King Maker himself. To maintain a prosperous life no matter who inherits succession.

However, such a procedure was only effective when the balance of power was maintained.

He ignores the number of inspections to meet the Empress. The body search was fundamental, and half of it was enchanted. It was a rude thing to do to the Imperial Emperor. It was also Ferdinand's position to accept that rudeness…….

He kneels.

“The people's complaints are piercing the sky...... There will be rebellion if we keep going. Brother, it's all about the comfort of the Avamar and the destiny of Habsburg in the future... … I, the prince of Habsburg, am obliged to plead with Abama to take care of the people! ”

One of the most noble men in the empire kneels on the cold floor of the chamber. To a princess known to be chipping away at the county line. If anyone saw this, it would be huge.

However, she still did not look away from the paperwork. Kneeling is worthless compared to the documents you're looking at right now. The princess's attitude seemed to say so.

“Didn't I tell you? His Majesty insisted that no one wants to see him. I haven't seen His Majesty's respect since I was banished the last time. ”

“So somehow.... ”

It was a lie.

Ferdinand was not a fool. I don't know if my sister is lying to me.

The court officials were taken hostage by their families. The prince's wife and son were also imprisoned. They continued to be commanded, saying, 'The Order.' Excommunicate the capital, dig through the Yellow Hills, and command madness.

Instead, the emperor and the emperor naturally entered the imperial court to protest. However, what they encountered was not an emperor, but rather a cold-blooded warrior. The Bladers drove them out, escorting the Emperor. Then the nobles realized that all this was just someone's script.

No one had the courage to point out the truth in front of anyone's eyes.

No, actually...... it's gone. The rebellious nobles have been thoroughly killed. The family itself was destroyed. There was a huge commotion in the capital while driving out the people. A few families are buried in chaos.

The second prince, too, had a son and a daughter. All the children were "escorted" by the Queen Dowager. The people were heavily protected in case they were attacked in anger……. The prince had no choice but to speak in a bypass like now.

“Somehow.”

The princess smiled bloody. It was a dry smile like a desert.

It was the first time that the brother entered the room and was interested, but the prince was not surprised by the reaction. Perhaps she even laughed bitterly when she ordered the destruction of several noble families.

“You leave me with too much to ask for, brother. How dare you disobey His Majesty's command unless I am emperor? ”

“ ……. ”

Ferdinand is terrified.

He has lived in the palace for over a decade. He couldn't have known what he was doing. My sister has just declared her solemn intention to take the throne. That was not all. I told myself I would not rise to the throne, brother, that you would have me rise to the throne…….

“I, Your Majesty. ”

The way I called my sister changed. The prince knelt on his knees, his hands on the ground.

“Though I believe my family may not have much affection, I am one blood relative…… Please grant me the right to know the truth, as your brother. ”

“Brother, of course I'm your faithful sister. ”

Unlike a kind word, the princess still hasn't turned her head. He didn't say he wanted to be honored, and he didn't say he allowed the right. The prince's insides burn.

“How am I going to…… no, what's going to happen to my family? ”

“He already owns a family. Depending on how the owner behaves, the home can be in crisis, in crisis. ”

The lives of my wife and children depend on me. The prince lowered his posture even further.

“May I... help you meet the Emperor?" ”

Can I help you with your coup? That's what I said.

He was the best he could think of. Betray your father and establish your sister. Instead, you are guaranteed safe household safety. Is it possible to be more committed?

The opponent simply denied it.

“No, that's not what I want you to do. ”

Queen Elizabeth rises from her seat. She approaches her brother and lowers herself slowly. The princess places her hands on his shoulders.

“There have been some ignorant people among the people recently. They say that the heavens speak plainly of what will enrage them. The Habsburg Empire is finished. We must destroy the Empire with the hands of our people... ”

The Crown Prince knew. He still begged for an audience with the people's anger.

“My brother must punish them. ”

“What……. ”

The prince raised his head without my knowledge. Otherwise, the people were about to explode. If you deal with it violently, there will be a hundred rebellion if you act white. A wise sister couldn't possibly know that.

I met my sister's gaze. Blue eyes, like the sea, stare coldly at this side.

‘Ah.'

Looking at his eyes, the prince realized everything. Creeps passed by my neck.

The prince's voice trembles. He didn't finish the sentence.

“I... I... I... am... discarded...? ”

“My escort will certainly protect his family. ”

The princess did not say she would protect her brother.

The Second Crown Prince oppresses the people. When the people are about to explode, the princess stands up and blocks her brother. The prince embraces all his anger and dies. The princess, on the other hand, gains support and aims for the next step. A vomit goblin.

Prince Ferdinand begs for mercy, holding his sister's hand.

“Oh, Elise... forgive me... Please forgive me... We're not a family... Weren't we brothers... sharing the same blood...?" ”

“Don't call me by that name. ”

A frightening, cold gaze stares at the prince.

“I have never been blessed to be born with the same blood as you. Ferdinand. You'll never forget what you did with Rudolf. ”

There were more princesses in Habsburg than Elizabeth. Those princesses were soldiers many years ago.

The truth was different. The Crown Prince Rudolf and Prince Ferdinand raped the Empress. Never. I was relentless in harassment over the years. Eventually, the princesses committed suicide because they could not bear the humiliation. It is known that he died of illness at the time....

“Now don't expect me to admit it. When did my family have compassion? ”

“ ……. ”

“Surely you and I share the same blood. Equally cursed. You rape your sister, and I will drive you to your death. What a great family. ”

The prince glanced at the bright red frenzy in his sister's eyes. And he knew that his death had already been decided, and that he had no choice but to act according to his sister's words to save his wife and children.

“You're not the only one. The court officials will also oppress the people together. The road to the afterlife will not be lonely. What, is my last acknowledgement of my brother? Last but not least, as a family. ”

Elizabeth laughs.

The prince left the room empty-handed. The princess laughs on her back and feels like she can't fall. He wept bitterly. When did this start? When did all this go wrong...?

Three days later, the Emperor's bombing took place.

The second prince Ferdinand von Habsburg brutally oppressed dozens of palace aristocrats and the people who lived in Dongwon and the capital. Three hundred civilians were killed in the process.

Empress Elizabeth, who has been living in silence, is furious with the nobles' tyranny.

The nobles were defeated by throwing out their hidden lives and leading their own troops. All the palace nobles involved in the incident were executed. Even Ferdinand, the princess's own brother, was no exception. The second prince was counted, and soon his wife and children were beheaded and thrown in front of the people.

The people praised the princess's decision to rise up for themselves.
