Chapter 71 The Great Prince's Rebellion
Abram was unusually quiet tonight.

Ever since the bar street in Abrana was completely burned down that day, even the nightlife in Abrana has been much less active recently.

More security patrols took to the streets.

They said that the son of the Earl of Cavendish had been assassinated, and His Majesty the King wanted to do a great job of rectifying the situation in Abramana.

In this regard, many people who often come here to have fun at night are very calm.

As for the "crackdown", it happens every now and then. After this "crackdown" is over, everyone can come out and be happy again.

Of course, it will take some time to rebuild the most lively bar street. During this period, everyone can only enjoy the nightlife elsewhere.

But today, the silence was unusual.

The palace was still brightly lit late at night.

But apart from the patrolling guards, the entire palace was silent.

And this silence was suddenly interrupted——

The eldest prince was dressed neatly, and following him was a man wearing armor and with a stern face.

In addition, the eldest prince was followed by dozens of personal guards.

His Royal Highness has no duties in the government agency, and he cannot leave the palace at will.

Therefore, he had few people to call upon, and these were the only people he trusted.

He is going to do something big today, he wants to force the emperor to abdicate!

The eldest prince still remembered what his aide Lord Muller had said.

The 'Day of the Change of Stars' is just a few days away. During this period of time, there will be no wars among the countries, nor will there be any major battles.

This is jointly endorsed by the nine major orthodox churches.

So this is actually the best time to force the emperor to abdicate.

As long as His Majesty the King can be placed under house arrest, the eldest prince will have ample time to negotiate with all parties on the 'day when the stars change'.

During this period of time, even if there are people who are truly loyal to the king and want to rescue him, they will be unable to act because of the 'day when the stars change'.

The more the eldest prince listened, the more he felt that this was a godsend.

If I lose this opportunity, I may never be able to turn things around in this life.

With this thought in mind, he mustered up his courage and bravely led his confidants to force his father to abdicate.

The one who gave him the greatest courage was Uncle Hogan beside him, a warrior with a strength of 7 rings - Sword Master!
Such strength can be said to be one of the strongest in Susaitani and Inglo Kingdom, on this continental island.

"Your Highness, His Majesty has gone to bed. If you have anything to say, please come back tomorrow."

At the door of the king's bedroom, loyal guards blocked the eldest prince's way.

However, after seeing the eldest prince with so many people, their hands fell on the hilts of the swords at their waists.

"Step aside!"

The eldest prince shouted angrily.

But the guards ignored him and drew their swords.

A shadow that was too bright for human eyesight to see suddenly flashed by, and the guards were knocked unconscious without any reaction.

The eldest prince looked to his side and saw that it was Hogan who had knocked out the guards with the hilt of his sword.

Seeing this, the eldest prince felt even more at ease.

With a shout, he quickly rushed into the bedroom with his guards and headed straight for the room where the king was.

The eldest prince kicked open the door of the dormitory with murderous intent.

He was just about to order his men to tie up his father, but the scene in front of him made him feel like a bucket of cold water was poured on him, and he felt cold all over.

Inside the bedroom, His Majesty the King was not sleeping, but sitting on a chair in front of the window, also fully dressed.

Beside the king, the chief court mage of the kingdom, Avis, and an old man in armor stood on both sides of him. That was the commander of the kingdom's royal guards!
"My son, you come to my chamber so late at night, do you have something to report?"

The king's voice was like metal rubbing against a blackboard, cold and sharp.

The eldest prince's scalp was tingling at this time. He didn't know that his plan had been exposed.

His expression twisted, he clenched his fists and asked, "Who is it? Who exposed my plan?"

His Majesty the King shook his head and said, "You disappoint me so much. You organized your confidants in such a high-profile manner in the palace. How could I not guess what you were going to do?

You are still the same as before, never thinking before doing anything, but your courage is worth boasting about."

The eldest prince looked pale.

He wanted to beg for mercy, but the eldest prince also knew that begging for mercy might save his life, but his next life would be completely ruined.

He could only be kept in the palace like a pet until one day he became smelly and rotten.

The eldest prince murmured, "It's because you want to abolish my inheritance rights. If you didn't do that, why would I do such a thing?"

Seeing the eldest prince's distraught look, His Majesty the King became even more displeased.

The king snorted coldly and said, "Am I going to abolish your inheritance rights? It's your own stupidity.

You actually dared to assassinate the son of Earl Cavendish, an act that would bring no benefit to yourself and could only vent your dissatisfaction, and you were discovered.

Your current situation is all your own fault."

After a pause, His Majesty the King continued, "You want to force me to abdicate, and then collude with those dukes and earls to make them support your succession. How foolish!
If you do this, the power of the royal family will gradually be lost, and one day, those nobles will climb over your head and shit on you.

As a king, you don't think about how to increase your own power, but instead try to please those nobles. You don't have the capacity and ability to be a king at all. Compared to your brother, you are far behind!"

His Majesty the King stood up suddenly.

His scolding and the contrast in his words completely broke the eldest prince’s defense, and he yelled angrily: “Brother…brother…you always talk about him, but you never care about me!
I am the first in line to the throne of the kingdom, why should I give up the throne to him! "

His Majesty the King calmly concluded the incident: "You are not as good as him."

At this time, Hogan suddenly said: "Your Highness, leave here!"

The eldest prince was startled and then he reacted. Without thinking, he turned around and ran away with his confidants.

Hogan stood in front of the king, drew the sword from his waist, and a strong wind pressure whistled towards the king.

"boom------"

The surging fighting spirit pressure was like a hurricane and a tsunami. The entire king's bedroom was completely shattered by the terrible air wave!
Faced with the murderous intent within seven steps, even the calm King changed his expression.

The commander of the Royal Guard quickly stood in front of His Majesty the King and stopped Hogan. A terrifying wave also rose into the sky, and the two powerful men who were both in the 7th ring fought together.

Hogan didn't really want to kill the king; his purpose was to create an opportunity for the eldest prince to escape.

The two men were shining with the wings of order, fighting and retreating.

His Majesty the King looked at the destroyed palace and the two people walking away. He looked grim and said to the Chief Court Mage and the other guards who came over:

"Go and seize my wicked son, but do not harm his life.

As for Hogan... Sir Elvis, please also take action and kill him if possible!"

There was a murderous look in the King's eyes.

The reason why he didn't kill his own son wasn't because of a blood curse.

When his son chose to abdicate, the blood curse had already become invalid, and the relationship between them was no longer father and son but enemies.

The reason why he did not kill his son was because he was still useful and was the link between him and the Hudson family.

But Hogan, who also comes from the Hudson family, must not be kept!
……

Outside the city of Abram, on the banks of the River Spey, Deya and his father, Earl Cavendish, were watching the riots in the city leisurely.
