The visitor walked in front of Duke Wilson and slowly knelt down on one knee.
"My lord, please forgive me for being late and worrying you."
Duke Wilson looked at the person in front of him with a slight smile on his face. This person was the adjutant he wrote to Prince George.
"Where's the prince?" In front of outsiders, Duke Wilson still gave Prince George a lot of respect.
"His Royal Highness has entered London, and he asked me to come to you." The adjutant replied in a deep voice.
Duke Wilson nodded, George still seemed to have a good conscience, and he would be better off in the future.
"How is it outside?" asked Duke Wilson of the war outside.
"All traitors have been subdued, please rest assured."
Duke Wilson nodded, but he was relieved.
"Lord Duke, Prince George asked me to send a message. If the matter on your side is over, please go to London to meet." The adjutant continued.
Duke Wilson frowned and glanced at the clock. It was past four.
"What's the situation in London now?" Since Prince George said such words, there must be a message.
"The messenger just said that London has stabilized, but the Duke of Rand is now stubbornly resisting at Buckingham Palace." The adjutant said solemnly.
Duke Wilson raised his eyebrows. The guards in Buckingham Palace are Duke Rand's biggest support. This situation is very reasonable, but he is afraid that Duke Rand will jump over the wall and cause any damage to the palace.
"Is it dangerous?" Duke Wilson asked thoughtfully, he didn't want to witness the scene of Buckingham Palace being burned to the ground.
The adjutant understood the Duke's mind very well, and immediately replied: "Please rest assured, Duke Rand is now tied to a corner, and he is only negotiating conditions with His Royal Highness."
This adjutant knew a lot. Duke Wilson took a careful look at the adjutant. This man was his confidant, and he always took him with him even when he arrived in Derain. Now he seems quite capable.
"I see, we'll go right away." Duke Wilson made up his mind.
Lord Oram just stood there quietly at this time. If the fate of Duke Wilson was in his hands just now, then his fate is now in the hands of Duke Wilson, who now dominates everything. It's Duke Wilson.
Perhaps the sound of gunfire outside has been reduced, and the gentlemen and ladies who had been hiding in the house also stuck their heads out of the room to check. The situation in the room was very obvious, except for Duke Wilson and Lord Orlam. In addition, the big man they were thinking of did not appear, and now it seems that the situation is really set.
Although these people were greedy for life and fear of death, their brains turned faster than anyone else. Seeing that Duke Wilson and the others had the upper hand, several people immediately walked downstairs.
"Your Excellency, this is really nice, thanks to you today, otherwise we would all die here." A shrewd looking gentleman complimented.
And when he complimented him like this, the others followed suit, and the whole hall became very harmonious for a while.
Duke Wilson was too lazy to talk nonsense with this group of people, he just nodded at a guard beside him: "Send these gentlemen away." After that, he turned his head to look at them: "Although you can leave now, I suggest you Don't be in a hurry to go back to London, go back tomorrow, or it will be a mess and it will only add to the mess."
These people don't want to leave at this time, and now this place is probably the safest place, but Duke Wilson doesn't want to keep them at all, and they can't tell them to stay by themselves. Sent to their own horse-drawn carriage.
When these messy people were all gone, and it was a little late, Duke Wilson, Duke Wilson and Evan walked towards London in a carriage.
There were almost corpses outside Lord Oram's castle. Evan didn't want to take a second glance after taking a look. After entering the city of London, the whole street was as quiet as a grave, as if it had experienced a war. , There was no one on the street, not even the beggars and children selling newspapers that were usually seen everywhere. Every household closed the door tightly, as if there were some terrifying monsters outside.
Evan has never seen such a desolate and desolate London, and he also has a real understanding of this rebellion in his heart. The sword, light, sword, shadow, blood and rain in the book may be just a description in the book, and it looks like this to outsiders, but When you are actually in such an environment, you will find that it is 10,000 times more terrifying than what you imagined in modern society.
Evan couldn't help shivering, and glanced at Duke Wilson who was sitting on the side with his eyes closed and said nothing. Perhaps to Duke Wilson, these were nothing, after all, Duke Wilson was killed when he was sixteen years old. The old duke took to the battlefield. Although he didn't have any actual military exploits, he had already seen the cruelty of the battlefield. This rebellion in London was nothing in his eyes, and he...
Evan suddenly felt a little powerless, as if his previous rhetoric was a bit ridiculous at this time, Evan sighed and closed the window of the carriage, maybe he should put down his superiority as a person outside the book, and should To really integrate into this society is like this rebellion. He is almost helpless, and everything makes him unable to do anything, because this is not the kind of war that can't see the smoke of gunpowder in modern times. Everyone fights their wits and courage. Maybe he still has a chance, but with such a simple and rude use of a knife and a gun, Evan has no way at all.
Evan couldn't help but let out a wry smile, which was so embarrassing.
With the sound of horses' hooves, they finally came to the gate of Buckingham Palace. Evan had visited this palace before he came to this world, but now this palace is slightly different from the one he saw in modern times. .
The guards of Buckingham Palace stopped Lord Orlam's carriage, and after inquiring, they read the secret order that Prince George gave to the adjutant, and then let them into the palace.
Under the guidance of the adjutant, the coachman drove towards the west wing of Buckingham Palace, where Prince George and the recalcitrant Duke of Rand are now facing each other.
When he arrived at the West Wing, Evan clearly felt that the air was full of tension. The five-step and one-armed soldiers were all elite divisions under Prince George.
The three of them got out of the car at a distance of twenty steps from the side door. The guards at the door probably received instructions to greet them as soon as they came, and lead them upstairs.
"Where is the prince now?" Lord Oram couldn't help asking the guard.
This bodyguard has always been Prince George's personal bodyguard, so he has a good relationship with Lord Orlam, so he did not avoid suspicion, and immediately replied: "The prince is on the third floor, and the Duke of Rand occupied the room where the old king collected famous paintings and treasures. , things are tricky right now."
Lord Oram couldn't help raising his eyebrows. The previous old king was very fond of oil paintings and treasures, and he was a very happy person. The famous paintings and treasures he collected were priceless in the world, and according to Lord Oram's understanding , Among the paintings and treasures he collected, part of it was the dowry brought by Prince George's mother back then. If the Duke of Rand did something insane, it would not only be a huge loss to the country, but Prince George Also very sad.
"It's outrageous, who put him in." King Richard is not only a vain person, but also a miser, and his treasure room, except for himself Prince George, has only been in once, guarding Very strict.
When the guard was asked this, he also had a bitter face: "Lord, I think the Duke of Rand must have been prepared. When His Royal Highness led the soldiers to occupy Buckingham Palace, he immediately fled here with others, The guard at the door had already been bought by him, and he had stolen the key to the treasure room. He took advantage of the chaos in Buckingham Palace to escape into that room. Now he has sprinkled kerosene all over the room. If you do something bad, you will burn the room down."
Lord Oram's brows could not help frowning. This Rand is really a lifeless man. At this point, he still wants to fight against Prince George. According to George's character, even if he didn't want his life before, he wants it now. .
The three of them quickly went up to the third floor. The narrow passage was blocked by soldiers for a long time. Prince George stood at the other end of the passage with a serious expression.
This is the first time Evan has seen Prince George. He is tall and thin, with dazzling blond curly hair. His appearance is as gentle and elegant as written in the book. Although the white armor on his body is stained with blood, he is completely It does not affect his gentle and refined temperament.
This person didn't seem aggressive at all, but who would have thought that it was this person who killed his father and seized the throne.
"His Royal Highness Prince."
Lord Orlam and Duke Wilson both stepped forward and bowed to Prince George, and Evan followed suit, but he kept observing Prince George's expression from the corner of his eye.
When he saw the three of them, his originally solemn face was immediately dyed with a slight smile, he immediately stepped forward and helped Lord Orlam and Duke Wilson up.
"I didn't make arrangements this time, and I almost hurt you. I'm really sorry." His tone was gentle and remorseful, with a look of guilt on his face.
He doesn't seem to be a real high-ranking person, and even though the throne is only one step away from him now, he still regards them as ordinary friends.
But neither Lord Orlam nor Duke Wilson dared to regard him as an ordinary friend.
"Your Highness, you made the right decision. Even I will make such a decision. The Duke of Rand and London are much more important than ours." Lord Oram's face was sincere, as if he knew the news at the time At that time, it was not him who was pale and desperate.
Prince George smiled mildly and turned to Duke Wilson: "Uncle Charles, I have lost you this time, and I will thank you for your generosity this time for the rest of my life."
When Duke Wilson faced Prince George, his cold and arrogant expression finally subsided a lot. He nodded reservedly and said in a low voice, "It's my honor to serve you."
From this moment on, the young man in front of him is no longer the child behind him, he has become the king of this country, and he is his subject.
Prince George looked deeply at his unruly uncle. In fact, in his mind, this uncle was the most difficult one to deal with among all the nobles. His character was moody, and he was not very close to himself, but he Unexpectedly, at this time, the first person to support him was actually this uncle.
Prince George's mood is very mixed.
