"Hahahahaha!"
“What a theory!!”
"Since you are known for your admiration for the late emperor, why don't you follow him?"
When Fyodor said this, everyone present immediately changed their expressions, including the old duke.
"Remember this! The current emperor of Ursus is me! Fyodor Vladimirovich!! I admit that the late emperor brought Ursus to a whole new level, but this cannot cover up his mistakes! And you!! Duke Francois Reina! Do you think that I am not the emperor, but the late emperor?"
The old duke did not expect that Fyodor, the emperor who had been extremely cowardly since he ascended the throne, seemed to awaken at this time and suddenly burst out with the aura of an emperor. He was stunned and was about to refute, but Fyodor asked.
"Say!"
"Your Majesty, the late emperor wasn't perfect, but it's true that he led Ursus into its golden age! Besides that, he was also your father!!"
"It's true that the late emperor is my father, but it's not your turn to lecture me in my father's name! I am the emperor, and you are a subject!"
"His Majesty Igor, the founding emperor of Ursus and the father of Ursus, once said this when he led his army in an uprising to overthrow the cruel rule of the Hippogriff Empire! Ursus belongs to the people!!"
The old duke was immediately speechless. A series of combo attacks left him with no time to resist.
"Also, I forgot to mention that this parliament is so important that I will broadcast it live... to all the people of Saint Castle..."
As soon as these words came out.
The faces of all the pro-war factions suddenly changed.
“Your Majesty!!”
"Since Ursus belongs to the people, then the power to decide the fate of Duke Baikal should naturally be vested in the people! The voting should be almost done now..."
At this time in Saint-Jean Castle, almost all the residents were sitting in their homes or on the streets watching the live broadcast of the parliament on TV.
At this time, everyone was extremely angry, especially after the old nobleman put forward his theory, which caused ordinary people to collectively curse and curse the ancestors of these old nobles.
Under the guidance of special military and police officers, they immediately wrote down their choices on pieces of paper, and these choices would become the only options for how to deal with the Duke of Baikal in the end.
In the conference hall, the pro-war faction looked extremely upset. They looked at Emperor Fyodor in disbelief, as if they were meeting his Majesty for the first time, with a strong sense of strangeness.
At this time, the voting of most ordinary people from the entire Saint Castle had been completed. After looking at the results, Speaker Witte turned around respectfully and reported to Fyodor.
"Your Majesty! A total of over 1.8 million people want the death penalty, and no one opposes it."
After listening to this, Fyodor raised the corners of his mouth and gave an order directly.
“This is…the people’s expectation!”
"Execute immediately!"
As the gallows was carried up from not far away, Duke Baikal finally panicked and was shaking all over. He thought that the situation that he would definitely survive had such a big reversal. He immediately looked towards the old nobles where he belonged. However, at this time, all the people of the old nobles seemed like wilted vegetables, and they had no idea what to say or how to refute.
As the old duke sat down, Duke Baikal realized that the old nobles were ready to abandon him completely.
"No! Your Majesty, please don't! I'm a Duke! I'm a Duke! I was conferred the title of Duke by the late Emperor! During the conferment ceremony, the late Emperor clearly stated that even if I were to deceive him or rebel, I would not be sentenced to death. At most, I would be stripped of my power and placed under house arrest."
"Your Majesty!! Your Majesty!! I am willing to give up my dukedom! I am willing to hand over all my research results, and I am willing to use all my money to compensate the families of the victims!!"
At this moment, Duke Baikal was no longer as arrogant as before. A few days ago, he would never have thought that this day would come.
Just a few days ago he was dreaming of ascending the throne of Saint Castle, but now he is facing the death penalty.
Fyodor stood up and looked at Duke Baikal coldly: "Did you hear that? Above the Saint Castle! Above my palace! Hundreds of thousands of wronged souls are wandering around all day and all night. They are wailing and crying to me. I can't rest in peace unless I kill you..."
"And...what does the late emperor's promise that you wouldn't be executed have to do with me?"
A second after he finished speaking, Fyodor clapped his hands and gave the final order: "Execute!"
This time, the execution was carried out by the internal guards.
As Duke Baikal kept begging for mercy, the guards violently put his neck into a rope loop, and then as the rope was pulled, Duke Baikal was hung in the air by his neck.
His face flushed red and he struggled desperately, but such struggle was of no use. Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Duke Baikal's eyes gradually became blurred. He seemed to see the scenes when he followed the late emperor in the battles, the most glorious time of Ursus, and the scene when Fyodor called him Uncle Baikal when he was a child and he happily picked him up and spun around.
Before his death, a sense of regret suddenly arose in the heart of Duke Baikal.
If I had not been corrupted by power, had not forgotten my former sincerity, and had always followed behind the young Majesty, would this day never have come?
But it's all just an illusion.
The entire play also came to an end with the death of Duke Baikal.
..........
Meanwhile on the other side.
Everyone in the Reunion Movement stood in the newly opened cemetery next to the main camp, looking at the wooden coffins buried one after another, looking at these compatriots who had once fought together. Everyone stood there, silently lowered their heads, letting the snow fall on their shoulders, saying nothing, but also saying everything.
"Mr. Lu, Duke Baikal was just publicly executed by His Majesty!"
An internal guard appeared and informed Lu Yuan of the news about the execution of Duke Baikal.
As soon as these words came out.
Lu Yuan had a blank expression on his face, because in his eyes, Duke Baikal was already a dead man. If Fyodor was unable to execute him for some reason, then Lu Yuan would do it himself. Even if Duke Baikal was hiding at the ends of the earth or in a basement guarded by ten armies, he would still kill him resolutely.
But the collective spirit of the integration movement was shaken.
Talulah spoke slowly, "Duke Baikal is dead, but the Third Army is not dead, and the old nobility is not dead. Even if he dies, there will still be others to take his place. His death is only the first step, and our integration movement has just begun!"
The Patriot nodded: "That's right!"
At this time, Lu Yuan raised his head and looked up at the sky. He stretched out his hand as if he wanted to catch the sun.
"Then... the first small goal of the Reunion Movement is to completely defeat the old aristocracy represented by the Third Army!
My goal is to have my fields spread across the entire Ursus!"
Volume 1: Chapter 113: Let Ursus have no hunger!
With the trial of Duke Baikal and the burial of many victims of the Integration Movement, this incident has almost come to an end.
Although the entire battle was extremely fierce and the land within a radius of dozens of kilometers was damaged and pitted, the uninhabited permafrost was quite far away from the nearest human village.
So apart from feeling a slight tremor, people had no idea that a earth-shaking event had taken place in the uninhabited frozen soil.
In addition, the only internal security force that knew about it would not tell anyone, and the 10,000-strong force that the Third Army had previously sent to besiege the Integration Movement were all killed in the aftermath of the battle, leaving no survivors.
Even several officers who were with Duke Baikal were killed in the impact when they were discovered by the internal guards. It was more or less a miracle that Duke Baikal did not die in the impact. Perhaps God also hoped that this evil duke would receive the punishment he deserved, rather than die so casually.
"I should be leaving soon, everyone."
Outside the main camp of the Reunion Movement, Lu Yuan stood in the not-too-strong snow and said goodbye to Tallulah and the others.
"Won't you stay a little longer, Xiao Yuan?"
"No, I have things to do back at Saint Fort. I can't leave for too long while Saint Fort is still unstable and the Civilian Grain Association hasn't established a firm foothold. Once the Civilian Grain Association has established a firm foothold in Saint Fort and even in Ursus, I can stay with everyone in the Integration Movement for a while."
Lu Yuan said with a smile.
Looking at Lu Yuan, Tallulah and the others, including all the compatriots in the Integration Movement, their eyes were filled with reluctance.
But at this moment, apart from being reluctant, there was nothing else to say. Lu Yuan had other bigger things to do. Blindly trying to keep her would actually be a waste of Lu Yuan's precious time.
As for thanking you, Tallulah didn't say anything more.
Moreover, she knew that what Lu Yuan needed was not thanks. Her greatest gratitude to Lu Yuan was that she could make the integration movement stronger and stronger.
"Xiao Yuan! I will definitely lead the Reunion Movement to become stronger and stronger! We will definitely take complete control of this Third Army's territory! I will definitely not let Xiao Yuan down!"
Lu Yuan shook his head: "The wish is good, but I hope that you, Xiaota, can cherish your own life."
“I will!!”
After saying that, Lu Yuan turned around and prepared to leave.
Suddenly, Tallulah seemed to remember something, and she hurriedly called out to Lu Yuan.
"And Xiao Yuan, when you get back, talk to Yuxia and Shi Huaiya and tell them not to come all the way here. I've accomplished nothing right now, so I'm really embarrassed to see them. In the future, when I feel I'm qualified to see them, I'll go find them myself!"
"I'll pass that on."
Lu Yuan took a last deep look at all the people in the Integration Movement, then with a single move of his hand, he leaped out like a water dragon from the ground, soaring straight up into the sky.
...........
“Alas…Alas…”
"Ugh...."
In the office of the Civilian Grain Association, Shi Huaiya paced back and forth, and sighed heavily after taking two or three steps.
"It's been so long, why hasn't Xiao Yuan come back yet? There's no news at all..."
On the contrary, compared to Shi Huaiya's worry, Lin Yuxia gradually calmed down. She pointed at the TV and said, "Don't worry, Xiao Yuan will be fine."
"Didn't you see the live broadcast of Duke Baikal being hanged on TV? I remember that Duke Baikal seemed to be the chief of staff of the Third Army, and the Third Army controls the area where the small tower is located. Now that the chief of staff of the Third Army has been hanged, it means that Xiao Yuan must be behind this."
"Yes, yes~"
An Suo on the side nodded vigorously, raised his head from the pile of documents and said.
"Xiao Yuan is quite powerful. He was able to kill such a huge monster at Longmen, let alone a group of people. Even an army would be no different."
Then An Suo directly imitated Lu Yuan's tone.
"I can inflict damage with just a clap of my hands. Even the wooden man and the wooden dragon gods can't help!"
puff! !
Hearing An Suo imitating Lu Yuan's tone, Shi Huaiya couldn't help but burst into laughter. Even Lin Yuxia, who was usually very calm, covered her mouth and chuckled.
"I didn't expect that little Ansuo was actually so calm."
Shi Huaiya quickly came to Ansuo's side and glanced at the document in her hand.
"I remember you were looking at this document right after Xiao Yuan left. It's been so long, why are you still looking at it now?"
Being easily exposed by Shi Huaiya, An Suo immediately turned his head away and spoke toughly.
"I was thinking about other things."
"And I'm telling the truth. How could anything possibly happen to Xiao Yuan? Didn't you see that duke being hanged on the spot? Now the Emperor of Ursus treats Xiao Yuan like his own father."
Shi Huaiya spread her hands when she heard this: "Oh, that being said, of course I know that nothing will happen to Xiao Yuan, but I am definitely worried, right? I don't believe that you two are really not worried at all, and..."
"I bought a ticket for tomorrow afternoon!! If I take the bus tomorrow afternoon, I'll arrive at Longmen just in time for my shift. Once I'm late!! How about that fellow Changfen Long?"
Lin Yuxia didn't even think about it: "According to Huijie's personality, she will kill you."
Ansuo also nodded in approval.
"Ah~~"
Shi Huaiya's mouth was wide open.
"Although I'm not afraid of that fellow Changfenlong, but given her personality, not only did I take a two-week leave, but I was also seriously late for work. She's definitely going to kill me..."
"But if I don't see Xiao Yuan coming back, I'll be worried. I won't be at ease. If Xiao Yuan doesn't come back, I'd rather be killed by the rice noodle dragon than go back!"
Shi Huaiya spoke passionately, as if he were a martyr who was about to go through fire and water.
Just as Shi Huaiya finished speaking, a voice that couldn't be more familiar sounded behind Shi Huaiya.
"Luckily I came back early, otherwise you, little rich girl, would have been ripped off by Officer Chen."
As soon as I heard this familiar voice.
The three women immediately turned their heads to look out the office window, only to see that Lu Yuan had been lying outside the window at some point, looking inside with a smile. Lu Yuan had just rolled over and came in.
After being surprised, Lin Yuxia couldn't help but ask, "So...Xiao Yuan, why didn't you go through the main door and insisted on going through the window?"
"Oh, don't worry about the details. I happened to see this office window open when I came back, so I thought I might as well climb back through it."
"It feels a bit like a flower thief..."
Shi Huaiya started to complain.
Ansuo nodded in approval.
However, despite all the complaints, the four of them were silent for three seconds. Then Shi Huaiya rushed over first and hugged Lu Yuan. Because of the first experience, Shi Huaiya was not so restrained this time. Instead, she enjoyed the warmth of Lu Yuan's chest quite calmly.
An Suo also ran over from the side and hugged Lu Yuan's waist. Only Lin Yuxia crossed her arms and looked forward with a smile.
"You're finally back. We were so worried about you."
Shi Huaiya's voice was very low.
