Chapter 958 Emperor Zhu is sad (first update, please subscribe)

Over the vast African land, a white passenger airship, escorted by six military airships, was flying at full speed towards the northeast.

This airship with the French royal emblem is none other than the French royal airship "Queen Eugenie the Dowager". At this moment, Eugenie is sitting in the airship. Although three days have passed, her eyes are still a little red and swollen.

Next to her seat, 6-year-old Judy had fallen asleep, covered with a thin blanket. In the dim light, Eugenie looked at her sleeping child and tears fell again.

Three days earlier, during the celebration of the recapture of Jerusalem, her son, Emperor Napoleon IV of the French Empire, was seriously injured in an attack.

How is Eugene now?

Eugenie, with her heart clenched in a ball, heard the footsteps and looked up at the man she loved. She was extremely vulnerable and looked at him with tears in her eyes.

"Any news over there?"

“Not yet.”

Emperor Zhu shook his head.

"If there is any news, I will tell you as soon as possible."

Although there was no radio on this airship, there was a radio on the accompanying airship. After learning that Eugene had been attacked by terrorists, Emperor Jules immediately made a decision - to go to Jerusalem with Eugenie.

Because now everything is so subtle!

According to the telegram we received, Eugene was seriously injured in the explosion and it is not known whether he can survive, but... Judy!

Judy is now the first heir to the throne of the French Empire. Eugene has no heirs. As his only brother, if anything happens to Eugene, Judy will inherit the throne of the French Empire.

Although Zhu Di is nominally Na San's son, but... he is Zhu Xianhai's bloodline!

In this case, how could Emperor Zhu, as his biological father, not go to Jerusalem? The reason for going to Jerusalem was not only to visit Eugene, but more importantly, he had to ensure that Zhu's throne would not be usurped.

After all, he was only six years old!

Who would usurp the throne?

For the time being, no one can compete for the throne, but that doesn't stop a group of people from trying - the politicians in Paris.

Will they take advantage of Eugene's death to usurp the throne?

Although Emperor Zhu knew that this possibility was very small, who knows? What if something unexpected happened?

Therefore, the safest way is to take Judy to Jerusalem. If anything happens to Eugene, he can succeed to the throne directly in Jerusalem.

In order to keep in touch with Jerusalem, he exposed the secret of the Ming Dynasty - the radio station.

Along the way, he kept in touch with the fleet in Haifa via radio and kept abreast of Eugene's injuries.

"This time, those bearded men wearing turbans are playing a little too big!"

While comforting Eugenie, Emperor Zhu couldn't help but sigh that some things are truly inherited from ancestors, and some things are engraved in the bones and cannot be changed.

However, even if their descendants do something a hundred years later, it will not be as big as what they will do this time.

"What a trick! They blew up an emperor and seriously injured him, and then killed the Pope. Now the feud between the two families is really big..."

More than big!

Simply put, it shocked the world. Overnight, the "Jerusalem incident" shocked the entire European and American world!

Just a few days ago, they were celebrating the recapture of Jerusalem. Before they could hold the wedding, funeral came - the Pope was attacked in Jerusalem, and... died!

Faced with such a result, people were more angry than shocked.

How could I not be angry?

In the context of the Western world, I am the only one who kills people, but no one kills me; I can destroy other people’s ancestral temples, but others cannot destroy me; I can force others, but others cannot force me.

In a word, the white people’s context is that of bandit logic.

But now the robber was stunned by a bomb!

The one that was blown up was not an ordinary person, but... God's representative on earth!

Not to mention Catholics, even Protestants and Puritans recognize the Pope, okay!

So, overnight, anger became the common voice of the entire European and American world, and almost everyone was saying the same thing - revenge!

revenge!

Who should I take revenge on?

Naturally, it was directed at the local people. The French army directly played the role of "Sword of God".

When Emperor Zhu and his entourage were rushing to Jerusalem, a large number of resistance elements were arrested inside and outside the city of Jerusalem and throughout the French-occupied area. They were taken away and executed directly on the streets without any trial or interrogation.

Regarding this, the self-proclaimed civilized European and American countries not only do not think there is anything wrong with it, but even claim that this is civilization's punishment for barbarism.

Double standards?

They have been practicing double standards for hundreds of years!

On the evening of February 27, the airship carrying Emperor Zhu finally arrived at the military camp on the outskirts of Jerusalem. While Eugenie took Judy to meet Eugenie, Emperor Zhu met with Lin Yuehu, commander of the Zhenyang Fleet, and his entourage to learn about the current situation.

“Kill!”

In response to His Majesty's question, Lin Yuehu directly uttered a word that showed his understanding.

"After the incident broke out, while the emperor was still being rescued, the French military headquarters issued an order to arrest all men over the age of fourteen in and outside the city. If any weapons were found, they would be executed immediately. Even a matchlock gun would be considered a weapon. Now, from Haifa to Jerusalem, there are almost no adult men left alive..."

After a pause, Lin Yuehu added.

"It is reported that about 10,000 to 15,000 people were executed. In addition, it is reported that they drove more than 70,000 captured local people into the desert without giving them water or food. Those people had only two choices: either die or convert to Christianity. They seemed to be planning to..."

The French are also quite good at making things happen!

Emperor Zhu asked after sighing.

"How is the French Emperor doing?"

Compared with other things, Emperor Zhu was more concerned about Eugene's safety. After all, this was related to...Judy's big deal.

"It's not optimistic, Your Majesty. In the explosion, His Majesty Napoleon IV lost his left arm and thigh, and his internal organs were also damaged. It's a miracle that he didn't die on the spot..."

Looking at His Majesty, Lin Yuehu paused and spoke quietly.

"Your Majesty, I think the Ming Dynasty must now consider the succession of the Prince of Normandy, but the prince is too young."

Who is the Prince of Normandy?

It's Judy.

In fact, even Zhu Xianhai, when he was having an affair with Eugenie, never thought of taking advantage of her so thoroughly. When she "became a father", Emperor Zhu never thought of seizing the French throne for his son.

In fact, out of his love for Eugenie and of course his love for Judy, Emperor Judith was wholeheartedly helping Eugenie to secure his throne and allow the Bonaparte family to continue to rule France. This was not only out of the diplomatic needs of the Ming Dynasty, but also out of selfish motives.

After all, as long as the French Empire exists, Judy is the Prince of Normandy and the top figure in the French aristocracy.

Even if "Jingnan" is an old tradition of the Zhu family, one has to wait until Zhu Di grows up. Now, she is only six years old!

Faced with this reality, Emperor Zhu couldn't muster any joy at all, and even felt a little melancholy.

But before he could feel sad, his confidant sent by Eugenie invited him to the palace outside the city.
