"Sir, Your Majesty has sent someone to invite you into the palace for the second time. Several other adults are already waiting in the palace." The timid voice of the servant came from outside the door. Everyone knew that the current situation was not good. , the mood of the Minister of State is even worse, but His Majesty the King's envoy is outside the door, and even the carriage is ready for His Excellency, it seems that there is something urgent again.
Sharma nodded silently. He knew that if he didn't go, His Majesty the King and other colleagues would come to his house, but what problem would be solved by going? Faced with such a turbulent and chaotic situation, who can come up with a better solution
Motulaq Fort is not only the core area of Reed City, but also the residence of successive kings of the Indian Kingdom. In fact, it is equivalent to His Majesty the King's private castle. The towering castle shines brightly in the sun, with an onion-shaped and square shape. The pointed and shaped cellar roofs and roofs show that the architecture here was also influenced by the architectural art from the Western Continent. The main building covered with gold foil is like a huge golden-topped mountain. Even from ten miles away, you can look up at its luxury. Gorgeous marble is paved in every corner, and the beautiful palm leaves are swaying. , the golden bell rings occasionally, the clearer it is, the more pleasant it is.
"Why hasn't Sharma come yet? How many more times does he have to contact him to invite him?" Somewhat irritably, he clapped his hands heavily on the throne. The fat and old Mowar II was already impatient, and his desk was full of things. All kinds of news of help and defeat kept him awake all night. Almost one of the security forces was dispatched and then one was wiped out by the mob, so much so that even now Home Secretary Cleaver dared not agree to dispatch any more troops, otherwise Once chaos breaks out in Reed City, there will be no more power in hand.
"Your Majesty, please don't be too anxious. Sir Sharma is probably also considering countermeasures and should be here soon." Clever hurriedly came to his old friend's aid. He could already tell that Your Majesty was a little angry.
"Your Majesty, Lord Sharma is not here yet. We can discuss it first. The situation has collapsed to this extent. I think Lord Sharma and Lord Clever should also bear a lot of responsibility. The security force has performed so poorly. Spending so much food and money. Now when something happens, it collapses at the first touch. Such a performance. Lord Cleaver, don't you, as the Minister of Internal Affairs and Intelligence, have no responsibility? The untouchables and slaves have caused such a big disturbance, and now the entire kingdom is under direct control Of the eight provinces, almost every province is in flames of war. What is the kingdom’s intelligence department doing? With so many people, is it possible that they didn’t even get any news in advance?”
No one expected that the Kingdom's Foreign Minister would suddenly attack at this time. He directly pointed the finger at Sharma and Cleaver, and his momentum became even more aggressive.
Cleaver felt a chill, and he suddenly found that the eyes of several colleagues around him were looking at him with such gloomy and cold eyes. Even the squinting eyes of Orlando, the idiot of the Finance Minister, flashed with an insidious light. What do these guys want? Do you want to put this crime on yourself
"Plehanovich, what do you mean? Is the poor combat effectiveness of the security forces something that everyone has only known about in the past two years? Long before I became the Minister of Internal Affairs and Intelligence, everyone knew about the strength of these security forces. Even the regular army couldn't control the riot once, so can the security forces be able to suppress it this time?"
"Hmph, then why did you and Sharma object to borrowing troops from the Tang Dynasty in the first place? Where does the precognitive ability of your intelligence department show up? Even the central and central provinces are in chaos, and you, the Minister of Internal Affairs and Intelligence, don't know, Don't you feel ashamed?" Minister of Religious Affairs Lehan also took drastic measures. He is the minister closest to the Tang Dynasty. In his opinion, who rules this land is not the most important. The most important thing is that the religious status of the Roman religion in this land cannot be changed, and those untouchables and slaves must not change. We can't be disgusted with the noble class like ourselves. This is the crux of the problem.
"Lehan, haven't we already borrowed troops from the Tang Dynasty? But the Tang army refused to send troops. In terms of intelligence, I admit that I have some responsibility. But this time the BD and riots are so strange. Charles and I Lord Mar once discussed that this time Clifford also realized the seriousness of the problem. Sharma has not arrived yet and is on his own. The most important thing is that His Majesty seems to be a little shaken. This is the most dangerous thing.
"That's enough, Clifford, do you still have His Majesty in your eyes? You have only been with Sharma all day long, and the two of you have decided the affairs of the kingdom. Now it has caused such a big mess, and our land and manor have all been destroyed." You have been insulted and ruined, do you think you can get away with it?" Orlando roared at the other party. All his more than 10,000 slaves in the Ward Province were liberated by the mob, the manor was burned, and the cotton in the Degu Province The plantations were also looted, which made
He was almost going crazy.
Orlando's words touched the sore points of several other representatives of the nobility present. The three previously relatively stable provinces of Amman, Saichin, and Tangi also experienced the spread of riots. The riots finally spread from the north to the south. This finally made the nobles of Hyderabad unable to sit still. If this continues, it is only a matter of time before they become slaves of the mob. All property and women will become prey of the mob, which will undoubtedly be theirs. Damn it, they can't sit back and watch like this.
Klev knew why Plehannov, who was the first to attack, hated him so much. He had a large stake in a gold mine in the province of Holland, and Holland had long been in chaos. The gold mine had long been occupied by mobs. , he has been clamoring to borrow troops from the Tang Army, but was initially opposed by himself and Sharma, which made the other party deeply disgusted.
Mowar sat tiredly on the throne and roared at the ministers who were attacking each other. He really wanted to shout out loudly, whoever wants to take this seat can take it. He has never been comfortable for a day since he ascended the throne. The first The Pangcha and Luobi people, and later the Tikes and mob rebels, and now there is the threat of the Tang people, worry about Zhongzhong all day long, this king he does not want to be around now.
This time things are obviously not as easy to handle as the last time. The Tang people obviously wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, but now it is not a tiger fight, but a tiger trying to eat people. Those mobs are even more terrifying than the tigers. Think about it if Moor was shuddering at what would happen if he fell into the hands of untouchables and slaves.
When Sharma came to the main hall, he almost immediately noticed that something was wrong with the situation. Cleaver's despairing and cowering eyes flickered, but the eyes of several other colleagues were full of hatred and anger. There are so many representatives of the great nobles here. What is going on
"Sharma, you are so arrogant. So many of us are waiting for you alone, and even His Majesty is waiting for you. Don't you think it's a bit excessive?" Plehannov once again acted as the vanguard. He was already lightly I secretly met with the plenipotentiary representative of the Tang Dynasty in the Indian region and the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Tang Dynasty. The other party promised to ensure that the interests of him and all the nobles who support the friendship with the Tang Dynasty would not be infringed upon, and would also provide them with full This is enough for the political situation. It does not matter whether the Indian Kingdom exists or not.
"Hmph, who knows what he is thinking? It is urgent right now, and some people are still enjoying themselves." A representative of the nobles also said coldly.
"Your Majesty, I am late, please forgive me." After taking a breath, Sharma glared at the other party and said in a deep voice.
"No need to be so hypocritical, Lehan, you can announce the resolution of the front meeting decided by His Majesty." Plehannov interrupted Sharma's words and said proudly.
"According to the decision of the meeting in front of the palace chaired by His Majesty, Sharma is dismissed from his position as Minister of State, deprived of his noble status, and imprisoned on the spot: Cleve is dismissed from his position as Minister of Home Affairs and Intelligence, and he will reflect at home!"
While Sharma was surprised and angry, the guards outside the palace rushed in and dragged Sharma down, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you can't listen to the slanders of these villains, they will destroy the Indian Kingdom! "
Sharma's desolate and desperate voice echoed in the hall for a long time.
When Movor tiredly stepped down from the throne and returned to the harem, Clever was also escorted home by the guards to be imprisoned at home. Only a large group of courtiers and noble representatives were left in the entire hall, and the atmosphere seemed to have become much more relaxed.
"Plehanovich, now you are also the Minister of State, and Lehan, you are also the Minister of Internal Affairs and Intelligence. All matters are left to you two. The situation in the Central Province is also quite serious. We must prevent these mobs from rushing in." Decheng previously invited the Tang Army to enter Reed City, otherwise we will all die without a burial place. We can agree to any conditions, do you understand? This is related to the wealth and lives of all of us here!" The speaker was a noble. Chief Representative Banita, the riots in various provinces have made them like frightened sparrows, and the loss of property has made them miserable. At this time, their only hope can only be pinned on the intervention of Tang Jun.
"Mr. Banita, I have to take the liberty to ask, what if the Tang Dynasty puts forward some extraordinary conditions?" Plehannov also knew that Banita had had contact with the Tang Dynasty, but he still wanted to talk. An accurate bottom line, this is not an ordinary question.
"Plehanovich, didn't I say it before? You represent all of us in Hyderabad. No matter what the conditions are, as long as our rights and interests can be ensured, everything else can be considered. What we need are real rights and interests." , Others, hum, do you understand?" Banita glanced at the dark harem corridor behind the throne and said leisurely.
