Under normal circumstances, I have no chance of winning.

"Xu Nigel, I will now deprive you of your right to inherit the throne. There is no need to ask why; you know it well."

"..."

Xunaigel remained silent. Was the person in front of him really his father?

If he was a fake, why all this trouble? Rights?

But even if he is fake, it is impossible for me to expose him.

Ultimately, if there is no evidence, there is no point in saying more.

At this moment, Schneider's deputy, Kano Martini, suddenly came over, knelt on the ground, and said in a very serious tone:

"Your Majesty, His Highness Schneijel has been diligent and conscientious over the past few years, and has never made a mistake in handling state affairs. Furthermore, the policy of uniting with the flower-growing countries to suppress the EU Alliance has been extremely effective."

"So, no matter what the reason is, please reconsider."

Following Kano, many officials knelt down one after another and pleaded for Schneider.

This situation made Charles' tone a little angry:

"That's enough! Do you want to force the emperor to abdicate? This matter has been decided, no more words are needed."

The more you talk, the more flaws you reveal.

Moreover, if you think about it carefully, my father has a domineering personality and it is impossible for him to explain his thoughts to his ministers.

In other words, under such circumstances, it is absolutely impossible for the emperor to speak sweetly or softly.

Thinking of this, Cornelia waved her hand again and said in a deep voice:

"Schneijel, you are still the Prime Minister of the Empire, but you no longer have the right to inherit the throne, that's all."

"There's no need to elaborate on the specific reasons."

"The ministers are also forbidden from discussing this matter in public."

"There are three reasons why I have called you all here today. This is the first one."

"Now, let's talk about the second thing. Cornelia escaped from District 11 and returned to the Imperial Capital. Not only did she bring back Euphemia and Lyra, she also made great contributions to the Empire."

"I can't go into detail about the specifics, so I've decided to pass the throne to Cornelia."

"From now on, Cornelia is the new emperor of the empire. Please swear allegiance to her."

After saying that, Cornelia, Euphemia, Leila, and Baimu walked out from the side of the hall and stood in a row in front of the throne.

Noticing that the civil and military officials in the hall hadn't made any movement, Charles spoke again:

"Why, you guys are no longer willing to listen to me, and you want to join Schneijel in rebellion?"

Hearing this, everyone in the hall looked at Schneijel, knelt down and saluted Cornelia.

Soon, everyone in the audience knelt down, leaving only Schneider and his deputy Kano standing there, looking out of place.

To prevent Schneider from suddenly saying something embarrassing, Charles didn't ask for his opinion. He looked around and continued:

"I am not feeling well. I will go to live in seclusion somewhere else to recuperate."

"From today on, all domestic affairs will be under the responsibility of the new Emperor Cornelia."

"Then comes the third thing..."

When she said this, Cornelia glanced at Bai Mu unconsciously and sighed secretly.

"For the stability of the royal family and the development of the world, I have decided to marry both Cornelia and Euphemia to Bai Mu, who is from the Flower-Growing Federation."

"I think everyone still remembers the flower-planting banquet we had more than half a month ago, right?"

"From this day forward, within the Holy Empire of Britannia, the White Curtain enjoys the same rights as the Emperor."

"At the same time, from now on, only the children born to Cornelia, Euphemia, and Baimu have the right to inherit the throne. The other members of the royal family have no right of inheritance."

? ?

Hearing this, Schneider had already reacted and looked carefully at the white screen on the stage.

If the father on the stage is fake, it means that he has the ability to transform into anyone.

In this way, what happened in District 11 over the past half month makes sense.

What a good method! He single-handedly took control of the empire in such a short time.

Cornelia's eyes were not right, and it was obvious that she was someone else pretending to be her.

So, could it be that all these people on the stage are fakes?

Even so, Schneijel could do nothing but watch in silence.

Even if he accused the emperor on the stage of being fake in front of all the civil and military officials, he would only be regarded as a madman, or as someone who was biting nonsense because he had lost the right to inherit the throne.

After all, without evidence, most people would not imagine that someone could be so fickle.

In this situation, the only thing you can do is to preserve your useful body and think of other ways.

Thinking of this, Schneijel said tentatively:

"Your Majesty, according to the tradition of the Empire, when a member of the royal family marries, they automatically lose their right to inherit the throne. There are no exceptions."

"In other words, this Mr. Baimu is marrying into the family?"

"But if it's about marrying into the family, what about Euphemia? Neither the imperial law nor the flower-growing law supports a man marrying two women."

Noticing that he was staring at her closely while speaking, Bai Mu chuckled and spoke slowly:

"Marrying into the wife's family is just a title, and I don't care about the child's surname."

"As for Euphemia, you could consider her and Cornelia as a whole. Wouldn't that make things easier to understand?"

"If you find it hard to accept, then put it another way. Cornelia couldn't bear to be separated from her sister. When she was young, she swore to heaven that she would be with her even if she got married. Wouldn't that make it easier to accept, brother-in-law?"

This guy! He can really talk.

Schneijel raised his brows, his face becoming more serious.

The other party has already taken control of the situation. In this situation, we can only avoid the attack temporarily.

Apart from anything else, he had no confidence at all based on the military force displayed by the other party at the banquet.

"Mr. Bai is planning to marry into the royal family of Britannia. Does the flower-growing emperor know about this? She seems to have a good impression of Mr. Bai."

"Haha...that's not important. Brother-in-law, it's time for you to swear allegiance to the new emperor. Or is it that you simply can't accept bowing to your own sister?"

"Cornelia has a straightforward personality and a slightly simple mind. As a general, she is excellent in all aspects. But as an emperor, she is still a little lacking."

"That's not important." Bai Mu shook his head slightly. "As a king, as long as you know how to identify and utilize people, that's enough. Planning and devising strategies? That's your job as Prime Minister. Honestly, as long as you readily accept good advice and don't mess around, you're a qualified king."

"Your Britannia royal family has produced many talented people this generation. Whether it's Cornelia, Odysseus, Clovis, Lyra, or Nunnally, as long as they sit on the throne, they will all be good emperors."

"But you are an exception. Compared to the emperor, the prime minister is more suitable for you. With your personality, if you become the emperor, you will die young sooner or later."

Hearing this, Schneijel couldn't help but laugh.

"I didn't expect you to think so highly of me. Indeed, I don't have any strong desires, which is incompatible with my father's tyranny."

"But, even so, I am still the prince and prime minister of this country."

"Mr. Bai, as an outsider, wants to take away our empire's most important treasure so easily. Isn't that too much?"

"You've misunderstood a little." Bai Mu naturally understood what he meant. "The treasure is still in this country, but I'm the one keeping it. I haven't taken anything from the empire. On the contrary, the empire has a national treasure like me."

"If what you say is true, I am willing to pledge my allegiance to Cornelia."

After saying this, Schneijel knelt on one knee and bowed to Cornelia.

Chapter 157 If I say it’s because I like you, would you believe it?

Soon, after the civil and military officials left one after another, only Bai Mu and others and Xiu Nigel were left in the main hall of the palace.

Schneijel chased Kano away and turned to look at Charles, who looked strange no matter how he looked at him, and asked in a deep voice:

"Who are you? Where is my father?"

Cornelia took off her disguise mask and smiled.

"Brother, you have just sworn allegiance to me. You cannot go back on your word."

"How...why?"

Schneijel subconsciously looked at the other Cornelia next to him.

Seeing this, CC also took off the mask on his face and said with a smile:

"This is quite interesting. I didn't expect you to give in so easily. It's really surprising, Schneider."

Noticing Schneizel's strange look, Euphemia quickly said:

"Royal brother, I'm serious. Father is fine, he's just been locked up. Once the domestic situation stabilizes, we will release Father and Brother Odysseus."

"I'm serious too!" Leila continued, "Royal brother, Sister Cornelia said earlier that she wanted to arrest you too. Luckily you knelt quickly enough, otherwise, I feel like she would have taken action soon."

"..."

Schneijel remained silent. Was this really Cornelia? This was truly a trick.

I had originally thought that if Cornelia was fake, my oath of allegiance would be invalid.

"Cornelia, why are you doing this?"

"Royal brother, a princess who doesn't want to be emperor is not a qualified member of the royal family. I also want to be emperor, but under normal circumstances, I obviously have no chance. So, I'm sorry, this is the only solution."

Although she was a prisoner who was promoted to a regular employee, Cornelia naturally couldn't say such a thing.

Moreover, at this moment, I was filled with excitement and all my previous complaints were forgotten.

"Royal brother, please give me more guidance from now on. I am not very good at government affairs, so I will continue to rely on you in this regard."

"..."

Schneijel did not respond. Instead, he shifted his gaze to the white screen and pondered:

"Judging from how he so carelessly gave up the position of Grand Marshal of the Flower-Growing Emperor that day, Mr. Bai shouldn't be the kind of person who values ​​power. Why would he do such a thing?"

"For world peace."

"ah...?"

"Haha...just kidding. If I said it's because I like both of them, would you believe it?"

"Why don't you believe it? I just didn't expect that my two sisters would fall for the same man."

Moreover, they are willing to marry each other.

This kind of thing is strange no matter how you think about it.

"When is the wedding? Since it's a marriage between two countries, I think we should contact the flower-growing department first."

"I'll leave it all to you, brother-in-law."

“Okay…” Schneijel was speechless.

At this moment, he always has a subtle sense of dislocation.

Even though such a serious event had happened in the empire, everything was not much different from before, except that the person on the throne had changed.

......

On the other side, inside the Shiku family house in Shibuya district.

Since all of Lelouch's memories were sealed, he became demented and his intelligence was only equivalent to that of a newborn baby, so Nunnally took on the responsibility of taking care of him.

Just like how my brother has taken care of my daily life in the past few years.

Even so, due to the difference in size, changing his clothes or taking him to the toilet is extremely difficult.

Among these, going to the toilet is the most difficult process.

Lelouch, who has the intelligence of a baby, is completely unable to take care of himself. If he is not taken to the bathroom regularly, he will only get dirty on his pants.

Just washing his pants every day took up a lot of Nanali's time.

The only thing to be thankful for is that, despite being irrational, he is still quite obedient and doesn't resist when I help him change his clothes or feed him.

"Brother, open your mouth, ah..."
