As soon as Colin gave the order, a group of Bloody Cavalry surrounded the Queen's bedroom so tightly that not even a drop of water could trickle through.
At the same time, there were also Blood Shadow Guards guarding the place in the dark to ensure that Aisha's labor would not be disturbed by the outside world.
Three female doctors who were on standby were called over, and a group of trained maids immediately got to work. Some boiled water, some ironed cloth. Everything was carried out in an orderly manner.
However, Colin and Duke Müller could not help in this busy situation. They could only stand outside the delivery room.
Duke Müller walked around anxiously, looking at Colin's expression from time to time. He wanted to say something, but when he saw Colin's expressionless face, he swallowed his words.
Time passed slowly. Duke Müller looked at the maids coming in and out to deliver all kinds of things. He heard the faint cries of pain coming from the delivery room. He could not help but ask, "Why hasn't she come out yet?"
Colin put his hands behind his back and looked at the setting sun with deep eyes. He said calmly, "It's not that fast to give birth to a child."
"You're right, you're right …" Duke Müller looked embarrassed. When he was about to say something, he suddenly stared at the sky in the north of the palace and exclaimed, "Smoke … Smoke! Why is there smoke? "
Colin also saw the direction Duke Müller was pointing at, but he did not look surprised. It was as if this was all within his expectations.
In the blink of an eye, a few more plumes of thick smoke rose from Silvermoon City.
And this seemed to be a signal. Suddenly, noisy noises could be heard everywhere in the city. Even Colin, who was far away in the palace, could vaguely hear it.
"What … What's going on?" Duke Müller's forehead could not help but break out in a cold sweat. His eyes were filled with infinite fear.
Obviously, he had realized that something was wrong.
Colin could no longer keep silent. He shouted loudly, "Roger!"
Knight Roger strode towards Colin and knelt down on one knee: "Sir, what can I do for you?"
The corners of Colin's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a bloodthirsty smile.
"This is the first battle after Bloody Cavalry changed its name. Don't let me down."
Bang!
Knight Roger slammed his left hand heavily on his chest armor and loudly said:
"Yes!"
With that, he turned around and strode away.
Duke Müller stared blankly at the scene before him. "Your Lordship, did you … foresee this from the start?"
Colin turned around and smiled: "Duke, I'm not an idiot, how could I be unprepared? Now, it was up to the rebels to see what tricks they could play. Hehe, I hope it won't disappoint me too much. "
Duke Müller looked at Colin, who had a calm expression but was emitting a bloodthirsty aura. He couldn't help but shudder. At the same time, he sighed. Was Silver Moon City about to experience another night of bloodshed?
…
"Who is mobilizing the Silvermoon Guard? Why didn't I know? "
Duke Modwin roared angrily. Other than anger in his eyes, there was also a touch of unconcealable fear.
In fact, he had long known about the undercurrents in Silvermoon City. He had reminded Queen Aisha to be careful many times, but unfortunately, the Queen had not paid attention to it.
However, the Queen could ignore it, but as the commander of the Silvermoon Guard, Duke Modwin could not ignore some signs of rebellion in the army.
So, he had been paying attention to the situation of the Silvermoon Guard. He had been chatting with the officers of the guard, explaining the pros and cons to them, and warning them not to be fooled by some conspirators.
Even so, when things came to a head, Duke Modwin realized in despair that a portion of the Silvermoon Guard was out of his control.
"Your Lordship, the Silvermoon Guard went to put out the fire …"
"Bullsh * t!" Duke Modwin interrupted rudely. "I asked who mobilized the Silvermoon Guard, not why!"
The subordinate immediately shrunk his head and did not dare to make a sound.
"Moreover, no matter what the reason is, shouldn't they have gotten my permission before mobilizing the Silvermoon Guard?" Duke Modwin roared angrily.
He knew very well that putting out the fire was bullsh * t.
No matter how big the fire was, there was no need to mobilize the Silvermoon Guard to save it.
Those people mobilizing the Silvermoon Guard only had one goal — Queen Aisha!
Thinking of this, Duke Modwin could no longer keep his cool. He kicked the subordinate in front of him to the ground and then strode out.
But just as he stepped out, Duke Modwin was stopped.
"Uncle Camais?" Duke Modwin looked at the old man in front of him and had a bad feeling.
Camais Modwin stood with his hands behind his back and asked expressionlessly, "William, what are you going to do in such a hurry?"
Duke Modwin took a deep breath and said honestly, "Uncle, someone mobilized the Silvermoon Guard without my permission. They have bad intentions. I have to stop them immediately!"
"No need."
"What?"
Camais stared at Duke Modwin with his cloudy eyes and said calmly, "Because the person who mobilized the Silvermoon Guard is your son — Charlie."
Duke Modwin was stunned as if he was struck by lightning. He was speechless for a long time.
Seeing this, Camais continued, "Don't even think about stopping them. Charlie is probably almost at the north gate of the palace and is ready to attack."
Hearing this, the light in Duke Modwin's eyes disappeared. He asked painfully, "Why? Do you want the House of Medea to be destroyed? "
"Destroyed? Hehe. " Camais laughed coldly and said disdainfully, "William, have you forgotten how the House of Medea lost the half-elf throne?
It was all because of your cowardice!
Back then, as the first successor to the throne, you actually gave in to Colin and Aisha, that adulterous pair, and gave up the throne for nothing!
This is a great humiliation!
Do you know why Aisha dared to hand the Silvermoon Guard to you? Why did she dare to let you preside over the kingdom when she was about to give birth?
Because she saw through you!
She knew that you didn't dare to resist!
The hatred, glory, and faith of the family have long been thrown aside. You only think about how to curry favor with Aisha!
If we let you go on like this, the House of Medea will really fall into the abyss of destruction! "
Duke Modwin stared at his uncle as if he was getting to know him all over again. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a mocking smile, and said,
"Uncle, I admit that I'm not smart. Father has always been dissatisfied with me because of this. But do you know why he didn't change his successor when he was alive? "
Camais was stunned, and asked, "Why?"
"Because, although I'm stupid, but …" The mockery on Duke Modwin's face became more obvious, "But you are even more stupid!"
Camais' face flushed red, but he suppressed his anger and coldly snorted, "William, don't talk nonsense anymore. Do you have a choice now?
Your only son, Charlie, is attacking the palace. Do you really think you can stay out of it?
No, soon the nobles of Silvermoon City will think that you are the mastermind of this rebellion!
Even if you do nothing now and watch Charlie get killed by the Blood Cavalry, do you really think you can continue to gain the trust of the queen in the future? "
Duke Modwin's face showed that he was struggling, but he still did not give in.
Camais continued to persuade, "Charlie is your only son. Do you really have the heart to do that?"
"We can't win against Count Angele!" Duke Modwin shouted in a low voice.
"Hmph! William, your cowardice disappoints me! " Camais said coldly, "But, I can tell you that the participants of this rebellion are far more than you can imagine. Do you not even have the courage to take a gamble now? "
Duke Modwin lowered his head, and his fingernails were already digging into his palms.
Camais waited for a while, but did not receive any response from Duke Modwin. He was disappointed.
But just as he was about to turn around and leave, ignoring the cowardly patriarch, Duke Modywin suddenly raised his head. His eyes were filled with a cold madness as he growled in a low voice.
"Alright! Then let's take another gamble! "
