Snapped!

The noise in the square was suppressed by the gunshot. Not only was the time paused, but even the sound disappeared completely after the gunshot.

The next second, a palace guard rushed over and pinned the emperor under him, and then the second.

The emperor just wanted to say "I'm fine" and jokingly told them "I may be the first emperor to be crushed to death", but for some reason, he couldn't speak and coughed twice.

Something coughed out of the throat, the comfortable feeling didn't last long, and there seemed to be something in the throat again.

Time resumed, and the people in the square fled in all directions. Even if the police and palace guards asked them to stop, they didn't stop!

The nobles were surrounded by palace guards, and conflicts could break out anytime and anywhere.

No one noticed that at the first moment when the riot broke out, a cleaner appeared from behind the cafe, with his face lowered, and ran towards the outskirts of the city with the others.

Someone reported to the police that the café was the first and loudest place to hear the gunfire, and they found the gun too, but... it doesn't make much sense anymore.

His Majesty the Emperor was assassinated after announcing the abolition of noble privileges, a bullet hit him in the chest, and he was sent back to the palace for treatment.

Of course sometimes some people think that the emperor has to go to the hospital if he is injured... let them continue to think so!

Ten minutes later, the prime minister, all the ministers, and the great nobles rushed to the palace.

"How's your Majesty doing?" There was a murderous look on the prime minister. He was not here this morning. This was a conflict between the aristocratic group and the emperor. He might be forced to express his opinion when he came over.

So he was very cunning and didn't mention the matter of going to the scene at all, and hid early in the morning.

Just when they thought that the new era had come, news of His Majesty's assassination came.

The prime minister, who had endured for decades, finally broke out at this moment.

The boiling anger and murderous intent surrounding him could be felt even a few meters away. He walked outside the ward, glanced at the doctor, and the doctor who had been working for the royal family lowered his head.

"How is Your Majesty doing?"

The doctor didn't speak, the prime minister turned and walked into the next room, the doctor followed him in, and then the door closed.

"The bullet remained in His Majesty's lung. His condition is very dangerous. We must make a decision as soon as possible..." The doctor explained the situation directly without reservation.

The Prime Minister frowned, "What decision?"

"Open the chest!"

In this era, some surgical operations are actually very mature, but they do not completely involve organs, such as digging out a bullet from a lung lobe and repairing a blood vessel and then suturing it up...

Thinking about it, the success rate doesn't seem to be that high!

The Prime Minister is not a person who knows nothing, he knows the risks of this operation, "If we try hard, what is the probability that he will survive?"

The doctor gave a very low number, "no more than a five percent chance."

Of course, he also defended medicine, "The medicine of the Federation is more advanced than ours. If we can invite the top surgical experts from the Federation, His Majesty has a high probability of surviving."

This sentence made the prime minister feel hopeful. There are still many things that need the emperor's cooperation. It is true that they have fought against each other for a lifetime, but at this time they can be regarded as a kind of cooperative partner.

Without the emperor, it would be difficult for him to carry on the scene alone.

"Go hire someone immediately, and I will give you the greatest power..." He looked at the doctor's unchanging depression, and then fell silent, "You won't tell me that we are going to the Federation to invite people back, right? "

Back and forth, one week, His Majesty the Emperor simply can't last that long!

The doctor laughed twice, and the prime minister took a deep breath, and walked a few steps back and forth, "Go ahead, if we don't do anything, he has no chance at all."

"If you do, there is at least a 5% chance, isn't it?"

The doctor hesitated for a while, but finally decided to follow the prime minister's request and began to organize a medical team to operate on the emperor.

The prime minister called for the head of the police department, and with him came the rifle that had shot the bullet into the emperor's chest.

"Gafra rifle, the steel stamp has been rubbed off, it is well maintained, after adjustment, there is no magazine, only these are found..."

The prime minister looked at the head of the police department. If the kneeling ceremony had not been abolished earlier, he felt that it would be more comfortable for him to speak on his knees.

"So...you're going to use this to deal with me?"

The prime minister's words didn't have much smoke and fire, but they fell on people's ears like a heavy hammer hitting the drum.

The head of the headquarters smiled reluctantly, "We have already locked down a square cleaner, and we are moving up the line..."

While the head of the headquarters was reporting the news, representatives of the military rushed over.

As the most important force of the royal family, the military is also the most feared force. The royal family did not want to use them in this whole incident.

Externally, the emperor's attitude may be that he does not want to force the nobles to trigger a civil war. In fact, the prime minister is very clear that the emperor does not fully trust the generals.

When the prime minister put forward some ideas, the royal family immediately summoned high-level military officials and sent them out to carry out military missions, which can be said to avoid sharpening the problem.

But it is not necessarily that there is no intention and idea to guard against the military.

These prime ministers know it, he has known it for a long time.

"Your Majesty's situation is not very good..." the Prime Minister was interrupted by a representative of the military just as he spoke.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, now is not the time to talk about this. I just received news that the Federal fleet is slowly heading towards the island!"

The prime minister was taken aback for a moment, then surprised, "So fast?" He raised his wrist and glanced at his watch. From the time the emperor was assassinated to the present moment, it has been more than twenty minutes, less than half an hour.

If they had sent a telegram, they should have known about it.

This doesn't look like... It shouldn't be premeditated?

The Prime Minister is not clear, but he understands that now is not the time to waste time, "Keep an eye on them and slow them down as much as possible. I will contact the federal people as soon as possible."

The military representative asked cautiously, "If we have to..."

"Then fire!"

The Prime Minister stared at the military representative. "We can lose, but we haven't lost our courage."

"If we lose, we still have a chance to win back, but if we lose our courage, we will never have a chance."

After he finished speaking, he turned and walked outside. While arranging work, the first thing he had to do was to summon the federal diplomatic ambassador.

Others also entered the work one after another, ready to deal with any unexpected situation.

Today's "party" Lynch didn't go, neither did the little earl, and there were quite a few people who didn't go, but no one was surprised that Lynch and his group didn't show up.

After all, they have been keeping a low profile for a long time, and it wasn't just these few days that they started to keep a low profile, which is not surprising.

When the little count heard the news, he was completely dumbfounded.

Not just him, but everyone else too.

Of course, Lynch also showed appropriate shock, as if unable to speak, he let out a sigh of relief after a long time to express his awe of fate.

Just when everyone started to discuss who did this, a phone call that no one else expected was connected here, as Lynch expected.

"Your Excellency Governor, I will turn on the outgoing call next, we are all together." After connecting, Lynch identified each other's identities, and then turned on the outgoing call function of the phone.

When he heard that the group was together, he was actually relieved.

"When are you coming back?" His Excellency the governor's voice was very calm. He didn't even talk about the assassination of the emperor, and asked them when they would return to Amélia.

His attitude and his words revealed a lot of information.

The new generation of nobles such as Lynch and the little earl have already taken root in the Amélia region, and most industries there have their investment or have more or less connections with them.

On the one hand, they vigorously support the development of various local industries, and at the same time, they also extend their influence to the bottom.

It can be said that apart from the governor, it is the nobles like them.

The little count and others all looked at Lynch. At this moment, they believed in Lynch's judgment.

"They will return to the province of Ameria soon, and I have some things to go back to the country, maybe we will see you later."

Lynch used the word "back" instead of "go," a subtle word that eased the Governor's voice a little.

"That's great, do you have the exact time..."

When the governor knew that the emperor had been assassinated, the first thing he thought of was that the prime minister and the great nobles had nothing to say.

This kind of thinking is only very short-lived. He probably knows the thoughts of the prime minister and the emperor, and also knows that his situation is very delicate.

After this clear thought ended, he immediately realized that this was a rare opportunity.

If the emperor does not die, he will work here for three to five years at most, and then he will step down and go back.

He has to step down before the general election ~lightnovelpub.net~ so he doesn't have much time.

But now... the assassination of his brother-in-law made him discover a very subtle opportunity. He could use "distrust" as a reason to refuse to communicate with Motoshima.

Although he will definitely have to go back in the end, the time to go back can be extended for a long time...

And half a world away, the President of the Federation was also shocked by this news.

He looked at Mr. Truman who came to inform him of the news, and asked, "Should I call their prime minister and ask about their emperor's current physical condition?"

"Or should I keep calm now and let you deal with it first and then speak up?"

Similar situations are happening around the world, but with some differences, at least only Mr. Truman knows who is driving it all.

Of course, he didn't tell Mr. President that sometimes when people get older, they will be timid and afraid, and it won't do Lynch any good to let him know.
