, the fastest update of War Palace and Knee Pillow, the latest chapter of Austria's Mandate of Destiny!

Vienna, Schönbrunn Palace.

Franz is still planning the future of Austria at his desk as usual.

A maid knocked on Franz's door.

"Archduke Franz, Madame Sophie wants to see you."

"come in."

After Franz finished speaking, he went to open the door.

"Hello, my lord mother."

"Hello, Franz. Can I come in and have a chat with you?"

"Okay." Franz replied.

Madam Sophie waved to the maids and guards behind her, who exited the room tactfully and closed the door behind her.

"Frantz, you don't seem to be in a hurry?" Mrs. Sophie said with a look of resentment.

"Should I be in a hurry? Mother." Franz hugged Madam Sophie, rubbing his face against her chest, a feeling that was both familiar and strange made Madam Sophie very angry.

"You...why are you still acting coquettish!" Madam Sophie was speechless for a while, looking around, and finally she found a teacup, and took a big gulp.

Madam Sophie didn't care about her own image at this time, and said with a long breath.

"You were born to me and your father. You don't have to worry about that. But this time the rumor is very vicious. Not only does he want to kill you, but he also wants our family to disappear from this world."

"Mother, who do you think is the happiest when our family loses power?"

"I have offended so many people, and you have offended many people, how could I guess that!"

Franz covered his face.

"Then let me put it another way, who is most beneficial for our family to lose power?"

"The most favorable?..." Madam Sophie suddenly thought of a very terrible result. "Queen Anna?"

Franz didn't answer, just making tea silently.

"Why?! That vicious woman!" Madam Sophie was already gnashing her teeth in anger.

"I have no evidence, but this incident is very unusual. Most of the things I do are done in the name of my father. If they want revenge, they should target and go to my father. But the other party just came to me. Moreover, spreading this rumor at the time when the attention is the highest can be described as deliberate."

At ordinary times, Archduke Franz did not pay much attention to himself. Once the government took tough measures, it would be easy to eliminate him invisible. But this time is different. The whole country is in a kind of fanatical worship of heroes after victory.

"And those details are difficult for people outside the palace to be so clear. If it was a frame-up at the national level, then the news would have spread abroad long ago. But even Austria's sworn enemy, the French newspapers, did not publish this news. It can never be the actions of a certain country."

"But that **** has no children, and the Austrian throne is even less likely to be inherited by the queen. What's the point of her doing so?" Mrs. Sophie was puzzled by this.

"Mother, do you know the story of Catherine the Great?"

"Frantz, you mean..."

"Mother, there is a first time in everything. Before Queen Teresa, no woman has inherited the throne of Austria."

Franz's words made Mrs. Sophie break into cold sweat, but her heart was agitated.

"But what should we do? Tell the emperor and let him depose the queen? Or let the Grand Duke Louis directly lead the army and let the queen die accidentally?"

"Mother, what Austria needs at this time is stability." Franz said flatly.

"But if you continue like this, your legitimacy and legitimacy will be questioned, and these dirty remarks will accompany you all your life..." Mrs. Sophie is very aware of the horror of rumors, that is, people don't care whether they are true or not, they just Choose your favorite.

Franz also knew that even if the six sons cut open their stomachs for others to see, no one would care.

And the best way to eliminate rumors is to directly punish those who spread rumors and those who spread them severely.

"Don't worry, mother. Those who spread rumors will be hanged in the public square tomorrow. As for those who help spread rumors, they will all be exiled to Namibia and Chenla."

"Then what if someone spreads rumors?" Mrs. Sophie said worriedly.

"Continuing to hang and exile, only by doing something irrelevant to the point of life and death can we completely shut up those troublemakers." Franz said.

"How did you catch those rumormongers? The secret police searched all over the city but couldn't find them. The Bavarian Township Association also helped them find them for several days. Even the Vienna Chamber of Commerce and Industry offered a reward of 500,000 florins without any clues. ..”

"Don't worry, mother. After tomorrow's execution, the person who spread the rumors will be dead. If there are any accomplices, they can also be sentenced to hang." Franz's tone was cold and murderous.

The real rumor-mongers may have left Vienna long ago, or even left the European continent, so it is very difficult to catch them. But there are a lot of death row inmates, and people just want to see the excitement.

As for all the people in that newspaper, they all took advantage of the loopholes of the censorship system, and at the same time touched the bottom line of this country, so it is only natural that they should be punished.

It would be very merciful to let them go into exile in Namibia just by damaging the reputation of the royal family.

Of course, if someone jumped out at this time and admitted that he was the one who spread the rumors, then Franz didn't mind hanging one more person.

As for the mastermind behind the scenes, Empress Anna and her lover, the emperor's chief adviser, Karl von Slott, Franz felt that they could be let off for the sake of the stability of the Austrian Empire. Gongdou drama is not enough to worry about.

"But what about that bitch? Just let her go like this? Your kindness will kill you sooner or later!" Mrs. Sophie obviously didn't want to let Queen Anna go, even if it was the same room, she didn't care.

"Mother, we don't have enough evidence."

Franz still looked indifferent, which made Madam Sophie angry and funny.

"Why did my old lady give birth to such an invulnerable thing like you? They want to ruin your reputation!"

"This scandal alone has hurt the royal family. If another queen dies in a strange way, it will definitely not be a good thing for the country. What's more, I have nothing to do with them. I believe they will get over it after this time." Return."

Contrary to Franz's optimism, although Madam Sophie couldn't make Queen Anna die in a strange way, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com still has no problem making a few maids around her disappear before she finds out.

However, Mrs. Sophie soon became angry, because the two maids who brought Queen Anna from Savoyon, under coercion and temptation, quickly admitted the fact of spreading rumors.

It was jointly planned by Empress Anna and chief advisor Karl von Slott. They sold the rumors to the newspaper, and then hid in the palace to avoid arrest.

"First Evolution"

Framed Archduke Franz is only the first step of the plan. Later, Archduke Maximilian and Ludwig will be framed. The purpose is to drive Mrs. Sophie's family out of the palace, and even hired gangsters and gunmen to pretend to be A mob assassinated him.

Soon two maids who disappeared mysteriously were found in a septic tank on the outskirts of the city. To be precise, they should be two incomplete corpses. Their identities could only be identified from their clothes and belongings.
