Chapter 689： Edict (Part 1)

Accompanied by the melodious sound of the bell, Immorson, the consul of the Eastern Region, strode towards the Senate.

His face was solemn, his expression gloomy, and his brows looked frowning. He didn't even bother to pay attention to the greetings of others, and just walked forward with his head down.

But as he approached the Senate, the slightly strange atmosphere around him finally awakened Imerson from his contemplation.

Looking up, Imerson saw a group of heavily armed blood cavalry soldiers guarding around the Senate.

Suppressing the anger and fear in his heart, Imerson continued to move forward. After a few steps, he saw a familiar figure.

A looming golden air current surrounds the figure, reflecting the bright light in those azure eyes. An invisible force field enveloped the entire Senate, and even the air here became stagnant.

Imerson tried his best to restrain the trembling of his body, and greeted calmly:

"Count Angele, are you also coming to the Senate meeting?"

Colin looked at Imerson in front of him, an inexplicable smile appeared on his handsome face, and said:

"No, I just want to make sure that today's meeting can be held normally."

"With you and the blood cavalry guarding the Senate, who else would dare to go wild?"

Imerson left a sarcastic remark and turned around and walked into the Senate, as if he didn't dare to stay by Colin's side.

Colin didn't care about him either, just smiled and quietly watched every elder who entered the arena.

Under his gaze, some smiled in return, some bowed their heads and pretended not to see, and some flattered...

After finally waiting for the elders to arrive, he came to the gate of the elders' courtyard, looked at the elders sitting in the courtyard, and said warmly:

"Okay, everyone is here, I wish this meeting a complete success, and I hope you can choose a qualified leader for the Radiance Empire."

After speaking, Colin turned around and left.

Leaving behind a group of elders with different expressions in the courtyard.

Although there was no threat in Colin's words, it still made all the elders present feel heavy in their hearts.

The blood cavalry army has taken over the defense of Yulong City, and the elders have to wonder, if the "qualified helmsman" in Colin's mind is not voted out later, what will this imperial earl do...

boom!

The rotating chairman, Consul Sabbas, knocked down the gavel and said loudly:

"Time is up, this meeting begins!"

……

Outside the Senate, Colin walked alone along the central axis of the central square.

In front of him stands the statue of Garner San Lorenzo, the founding emperor of the Radiant Empire.

This masterpiece, made of red sandstone, looks like a blazing flame at first glance, and the blazing rays emitted cannot even be covered by sunlight.

Colin stood in front of the statue and looked into the eyes of the Great Emperor Garner. In a trance, he seemed to be able to feel the gaze of this legendary paladin...

"...Sorry, can I have a few words with Count Angele?"

A soft and waxy voice came from behind, which woke Colin up.

He turned his head and saw Earl Lloyd's wife, Mrs. Kersia, standing not far away, negotiating with her attendant.

"Let her come over." Colin waved his hand and said.

The attendant will let go.

Keshia raised her skirt with both hands and walked towards Colin with small elegant steps.

Gu Li This countess has delicate facial features, and due to her well-maintained, the erosion of years has not left many traces on her face, but has added a mature and charming charm.

"Count Angele, I didn't disturb you, did I?" Keshia's gentle voice and charming demeanor can especially arouse a man's pity.

Even if Ke Linming knew that this person was his political enemy on the issue of the right to inherit the throne, it would be difficult for him to feel disgusted with her.

"No." Colin smiled and said, "I wonder if Earl Lloyd is in better health."

Facing Colin's ridicule, Keshia smiled and said frankly:

"Earl Angelie, when you came to visit that night, I did not let Earl Lloyd see you. I hereby express my sincerest apologies for the trouble and offense I have caused you."

Colin glanced at Keshia in surprise, as if he didn't expect her to be so frank, but he also guessed in his heart that she was looking for him now, and she should be seeking peace.

However, whether or not to forgive the Lloyd family depends on their sincerity.

"Oh? Then why didn't you let Earl Lloyd see me?"

"Why do you know the reason?" Keshia rolled her eyes at Colin and said coquettishly, "It's not because we want to put your majesty's illegitimate son Ryan on the throne. Of course, now our hopes are completely dashed..."

Keshia took a few steps closer to Colin, with a look of grievance on her bright and pretty face, as if she was coquettish to her lover:

"So, Earl Angelie, I am here this time, hoping to get your understanding..."

Colin snorted softly, curled his lips and said, "I have already given you the opportunity, but you didn't cherish it at the beginning, but now it's not that easy to get forgiveness."

Keshia nodded slightly and said, "I understand. So, I will give you one thing to show you the sincerity of our apology."

Saying that, she took out a roll of parchment and handed it to Colin.

Colin took it curiously and slowly unfolded it.

"This is... an edict from Emperor Reinhardt?"

"That's right." Keshia smiled complacently, "This is an edict written by His Majesty during his lifetime, and there is no problem with the royal badge on it. If it is sent to the Senate now, it will be able to influence this meeting. Go!"

Colin shook his head disapprovingly and said:

"This is written to adopt Ryan San Lorenzo as an adopted son, but it is not to establish his first-in-line heir status, and it cannot change anything..."

"Really not?" Keshia looked at Colin with a playful look, and suggested Think about it, why did His Majesty make this edict to adopt Ryan for no reason? "

Colin didn't speak, just stared at Keshia quietly.

Keshia didn't dare to face the scorching gaze of a paladin, she lowered her head, but continued:

"Count Angrie, there is only one reason for His Majesty to issue this edict - Harrison and Judy are not his heirs at all!"

Colin fiddled with the edict in his hand, shook his head again and said:

"There is no necessary relationship between the two, right? Does adopting an illegitimate child necessarily indicate that the original child has problems?"

Keshia smiled sweetly and said:

"However, what if His Majesty made another edict announcing the annulment of Harrison and Judy's inheritance?"

Only now did Colin's expression change. He looked at the charming countess in front of him, and said lightly:

"Is there really such an edict?"

Keshia raised her head and said with a tender smile:

"There really is."
