The courtroom became deathly silent.
The expressions of the courtiers were shocked.
These three royal edicts were like three thunderbolts that hit everyone with dizziness and lightheadedness.
The first was the appointment of the eldest princess as Crown Princess, ~ a precedent for the Kingdom of Shaxn.
Su Shi inexplicably became the king’s son-in-law.
Then the three princes were all demoted to commoners!
This simply turned the dynastic system upside down!
Upon hearing the royal edict, the three princes were struck by lightning and hurriedly knelt on the ground.
“Father?”
“Father, what wrong have I done?”
“I am your own son!”
Abolished as a commoner and forever banned from posthumous titles.
Instantly falling from the clouds into the mud, for them, it was more painful than a death sentence!
Babuh’s eyes were cold.
If it was three months ago, he might not have been able to be cruel, but now there was only coldness in his heart.
“What you have done, you should know for sure in your own heart.”
“You call me father and king, but you have secretly formed your own factions and raised your own private soldiers, and you want me to die immediately!”
“That’s not the worst part, but each of you are all incompetent! You have ambition, but no power, no strategy, and no loyalty or devotion!”
“How could I possibly give birth to you three losers?”
Bang!
The more Babuh spoke, the angrier he got, the more he slapped the armrest!
The courtiers fell silent.
At such times, no one dared to stand up and speak for them.
“Your Majesty, don’t get angry, take care of your body.”
Eunuch immediately calmed him down.
Babuh panted and said coldly, “Seeing that you still have my blood in your veins, I’ve commuted the punishment by demoting you to the rank of commoners. Otherwise, you will be dragged out and cut into pieces!”
The king had completely lost his temper.
If he wanted to reorganize the kingdom, he had to get rid of them immediately while paving the way for Alia.
The second and third princes fell limply to the ground.
Their faces were pale and their eyes dull.
It was already over.
It’s all over.
All their plans and calculations have been completely destroyed by this decree.
They never thought that the king would be able to last these three months until they pulled out all the cards up their sleeves!
The First Prince’s teeth clenched as a hint of cruelty flashed at the bottom of his eyes.
“You forced me to do this!”
He took out a jade stone and smashed it with a thud!
Babuh’s brow furrowed, “What are you doing?”
The First Prince was silent.
A moment later, a rush of footsteps could be heard.
Only the guards in front of the palace ran quickly, “Your Majesty, there is an enemy attack!”
“Nearly a hundred thousand troops from the Lion Kingdom and Gale Kingdom are running towards us, and they are estimated to be fifty miles away!”
“What?!”
“One hundred thousand troops?!”
The group of courtiers exclaimed in shock.
Although there was tension between the Saxin Kingdom and its neighbors, it did not rise to the level of direct conflict, so how could they suddenly appear out of nowhere?
And at this moment!
Babuh got up and exclaimed, “Fifty miles? Why are you only reporting this now?”
The guard in front of the palace said, “Some border guards have been withdrawn at certain points, and the enemies are hiding in the sand dunes, only just discovered by the city scouts!”
To be able to pass through the defense line silently, it is absolutely impossible to do it without an insider.
Babuh realized something and looked sharply at the First Prince, “Harbouri, how dare you plan a rebellion?!”
The jade that had just been smashed by him turned out to be a signal sent to the enemy troops!
The courtiers also reacted.
“First Prince, how dare you plot with another country with the intention of planning a rebellion!”
“How dare you!”
“That’s ridiculous, who’s planning a rebellion!”
The First Prince stood with his hands in the air and said in a loud voice, “It is clear that it is Alia who has conspired with Linlang and forced father to give up the throne. This is why I’m asking the neighboring countries to send troops to help me, to restore clear skies to the Saxin Kingdom!”
This was the backup plan he had been keeping.
It was originally intended for the other two princes, but now it seemed to be used on his father.
“Rebellious son!”
Babuh struck out angrily, and a huge hand in the void came crashing down!
Boom!
A shield of light appeared around the First Prince’s body and he received a hard slap.
It was clear that he had prepared himself for it.
The First Prince sneered, “If you kill me, none of you will survive!”
“Your Majesty!”
The courtiers were terrified.
“Take Harbouri into custody!”
Babuh’s expression was cold as he got up and walked out of the hall.
There was no time to quarrel with him now, defending the Shaxin Kingdom was the most pressing task!
The civil and military officials also hurriedly followed him out.
When they arrived at the city wall, they almost fell to the ground when they saw the scene in front of them.
The ground shook violently as if an earthquake had occurred.
Black clouds were pressing down on the city!
The First Prince was restrained by the guards, but his expression was extremely arrogant, “It’s too late to transfer the troops back to the Capital, the soldiers of this city alone cannot defend Saxin Kingdom!”
“If Father doesn’t change his mind, I’m afraid this city will be flooded with blood.”
Babuh gritted his teeth and said, “There’s no such thing as a free lunch, do you think they’ll just let you go?”
The Great Prince shook his head, “It’s still better than being reduced to a commoner! Since father is no good, don’t blame your son for not being right!”
Babuh’s face turned blue.
To think that he had prepared such a move!
Oasis countries are limited in size, and their soldiers are stationed in military camps nearly a hundred miles away, and there are usually only a small number of city defense soldiers and royal guards in the city.
That is not enough to stop this army of 100,000 people!
Alia’s hands were tightly clenched, her eyes full of worry.
If the city gates were completely destroyed, the townspeople would perish!
Soon, the army was already in the city.
Seeing the wrinkled man at the head, Babuh said angrily, “Zarin, what are you doing? Does the Lion Kingdom want to go to war with the Saxin Kingdom?”
Zarin stared at the city wall and couldn’t help but freeze, “Babuh, you’re not dead?”
Seeing the first prince kneeling on the ground beside him, he instantly understood and shook his head, “This is completely unexpected, but it doesn’t affect the plan.”
“You have ten breaths to open the gate voluntarily, or else it will not end well when we enter the city!”
Babuh’s face was ugly.
The other party came from a bad place and had been planning for a long time, so there was no way they would just stop.
This time something really big is going to happen!
“Ten.”
“Nine”
Zarin counted with satisfaction, looking like he had won.
The foolish prince of the Saxin Kingdom had taken the initiative to completely withdraw the border guards at some point, allowing them to cross the border silently.
Whether they opened the gates or not, the Kingdom of Saxin would be history!
The city wall was deathly silent, everyone’s faces filled with despair.
Su Shi sighed.
Babuh was too careless.
He had underestimated how bad the First Prince was, and underestimated the ambitions of his neighboring wolves.
In this situation, he could only try to take Alia away, after all, she was Yu Ren’er’s good friend.
As for the others, he didn’t really care.
“Good, since you and the others are persistent, don’t blame me for being cruel.”
Zarin raised his hand and smiled fiercely, “Listen to orders, all generals, follow me to destroy-“
Before he could finish his words, a soldier ran over in panic, “General Zarin, it’s bad! There’s an enemy attack!”
“Enemy attack?”
Zarin turned his head in confusion to look, and his pupils instantly shrank to pinpoints.
Only to see that not far away, a black tide was rushing!
“This is not good, there seems to be an enemy attack behind!”
