Chapter 514 The Weeping Queen
Chapter 514 The Weeping Queen
Chen Cheng is not ignorant of the world, but his identity is not just a wise man, he is also the emperor of that damn empire.
And ever since Sheli said that Samlet was recruiting troops for him in the City of Sin, the sense of urgency in his heart is something that ordinary people cannot understand.
There was no time to change his identity and make plans, so he could only speed up his pace with this easily broken slave identity.
Holmes looked at Chen Cheng, and then said with a smile:
"But what you said may give our Majesty a shot in the arm, allowing him to hold on for a few more years."
The fact that Holmes could tell him these things also showed that he really didn't treat him as an outsider.
Chen Cheng naturally knew that what he said to Holmes today had reached Moss XIII's ears. Even if he was really going to die, he would try his best to survive for a few more years and help Huidun clean up some stubborn guys first.
At this time, the butler also entered the hall holding a pen and paper, and placed the paper and pen on the table. Holmes smiled and stood up and said:
"Please, little friend."
Chen Cheng also stood up and said:
"Today, I will appreciate the Prime Minister's writing skills."
When he arrived at the desk, the butler had already ground the ink. Holmes picked up his pen and dipped it in ink, and in an instant a long and eloquent memorial took shape.
Looking at the format of Holmes's writing, Chen Cheng felt familiar with it.
When Holmes finished writing and put down his pen to wait for the ink to dry, he raised his eyebrows and said:
"Does the writing style look familiar to you? I imitated His Highness Huidun's writing style. This way, not only is the main point of the memorial clear, but the format is also neat and beautiful.
I have submitted a petition to His Majesty for an order that all memorials to the Executive Yuan must be written in this format from now on. This will also reduce the effort required of my old bones to read."
Holmes dusted off the dried paper and put it away while asking:
"By the way, His Highness is here now."
Chen Cheng didn't know why Holmes asked this, so he answered without thinking:
"Of course, he was taken to the palace by His Majesty Huidun to meet His Majesty."
After hearing this, Holmes just said "oh" and handed the memorial to Chen Cheng, saying:
"My dear, take it. However, I want you to give me a visiting card for meeting Marquis Soran. What do you think?"
Chen Cheng held the memorial in his hand, not knowing what the old fox Holmes was up to.
However, he did this kind of free and beneficial thing.
After writing a visiting card requesting a meeting, Chen Cheng left the Prime Minister's Mansion with the memorial.
After he left, the relaxed look on Holmes' face disappeared. He asked the butler to prepare the car immediately, as he wanted to go to the Marquis's Mansion to meet Marquis Soren.
After the housekeeper arranged for people to prepare, he also asked:
"Master, the situation is still very delicate. It would be inappropriate to meet Marquis Soran at this time."
However, after hearing this, Holmes' eyes turned cold and he said:
"Do what you should do."
The butler knew that his master was angry.
When the carriage arrived, he went straight up the driveway:
"Hurry, hurry up."
The carriage galloped towards the Marquis's mansion, and Holmes in the carriage lifted the curtain and looked towards the palace.
At this time, the clouds over the entire royal capital began to gather densely, and there was a feeling that dark clouds were pressing down on the city and were about to destroy it.
Chen Cheng, who was walking on the road to the palace, saw the weather and said to Sheli beside him:
"Why is the sky so cloudy? It looks like it's going to rain heavily soon."
Then he quickened his pace.
At this time, Huidun had spent some effort to enter the palace.
The knights guarding the palace naturally knew about the previous changes in the city, but without the order of His Majesty, they could only impose martial law in the palace.
And when they saw Huidun escorting Jinmu forward, they knew that the winner had been decided between the two.
But even so, they still chose not to let him go.
Finally, King Moss XIII, who was lying on the couch, ordered the lifting of martial law in the palace, and Huidun was able to come in.
At this time, in the bedroom of King Moss XIII, the queen was already kneeling here.
At this moment, she no longer had the charm of a noble lady, and her eyes were red, and it was obvious that she had been crying.
When she saw Huidun escorting Jinmu with Tandin in a wheelchair behind them, her tears couldn't stop flowing.
At this time, she did not beg Huidun to let Jinmu go, because she knew what her son had done.
She has been the queen for so many years, she must know all the royal secrets.
In a fight for the throne like this, the loser often has no choice but to die.
When Huidun saw the haggard face of his nominal mother, he felt a little bit sorry for her.
When Jin Mu saw her mother, she lowered her head in shame and did not dare to look at her mother.
Huidun did not enter the bedroom directly, but released the hand holding Jinmu, then bowed to the queen and said:
"This is the last minute, this is all I can do."
After saying that, Huidun pushed Tandin aside, giving the mother and son some private space.
When the queen saw Jinmu, she hugged him and slapped him several times.
Then the queen cried and cursed:
"You are such a troublemaker! How did I teach you? How could I teach you such a thing? Now that it has come to this, how do you want me to live?"
The queen cried and beat her mother.
At this time, Jin Mu also called out "Mother" weakly, and then cried as well:
"It's my son who is useless. I don't want to die at the hands of others. Mother, please help me get rid of this."
However, when the queen heard this, her tears shed even more.
She was not a strong woman to begin with. Otherwise, if it were someone stronger, the entire kingdom would have been in chaos if it had happened between King Moss XIII and Princess Phipsa.
Therefore, Jin Mu also saw through her mother's character and knew that she did not have the courage to resist her father.
As a son, he must avenge his mother.
Now that he has failed, he doesn't want to die at the hands of his enemies. He just wants to die peacefully in his mother's arms.
However, as he said, the queen was not a strong woman, and she would never be able to kill her own son with her own hands.
Seeing that her mother was just crying, Jin Mu shouted to Huidun beside her:
"Have you seen enough of this bastard? Now you can take me in and let me stand trial as you see fit."
The queen no longer had the strength to fight him. Huidun came to her and said:
"Please accept my condolences, mother. Crying too much is not good for your health."
At this time, Jin Mu sneered:
"You bastard, did you call me mother? Stop standing there..."
However, before he could finish his words, Huidun slapped him, knocking out several of his teeth.
