"Oh, I want to drink some wine now, and bring some ice."
Leaning comfortably on the soft back of the chair, Zhu Youyang answered lazily.
Being in the Army Base Hospital, Zhu Youyang felt much more relaxed. As a prince of the Ming Dynasty, he could only truly relax when he was in the imperial military camp.
To some extent, this is perhaps very helpless. After all, even the Mexican royal family does not completely control Mexico now. In this case, the safest place is the barracks of the imperial army stationed in Mexico.
"As you wish, Your Highness. What kind of wine would you like? It's..."
"Beer bar."
Zhu Youyang ordered.
After the adjutant brought the beer over, he took a sip of the cool beer, narrowed his eyes, and muttered to himself.
"Okay, it's time to act."
Just as he finished speaking, the phone in the ward rang. He picked up the phone and heard a voice on the other end.
"The assassin confessed. It was Luis Terrazas who ordered it."
"Well, very good. All right, order the gendarmerie to take action!"
Although the Chihuahua militia is controlled by Luis Terrazas, there is also a gendarmerie loyal to the royal family in the state. They are not only responsible for maintaining law and order, but also serve as a kind of deterrent against local powerful groups.
After hanging up the phone, Zhu Youyang thought about it and picked up the phone again and dialed a number. After the call was connected, he said.
"Spread the news. Luis Terrazas has taken action. He has colluded with the Americans to assassinate the Prince of California. Yes, you can fill in the content of the news. According to the previous plan, don't worry, he will confess."
Who will confess?
Of course it was Luis Terrazas. Just as Zhu Youyang hung up the phone, hundreds of military police led by two armored vehicles broke into Luis Terrazas's manor, which was as luxurious as the imperial palace.
"What's going on!"
Facing the intruding gendarmes, Luis Terrazas seemed extremely confident. Even though the person who attacked was his subordinate, what did it have to do with him? He shouted directly at the leading gendarme captain.
"Wei, why did you come into my place?"
Wei Changsheng said directly.
"Mr. Luis Terrazas, by order of the Prince, please cooperate with us in investigating the assassin at the train station."
"Cooperate? What should I cooperate with? I will explain everything to the prince in person...ah!"
A scream of hunger came out of Luis Terrazas' mouth. The leading officer took a step forward and punched Luis Terrazas in the lower abdomen. In an instant, he squatted down in pain.
"master……"
As soon as the people around them tried to move, the gendarmes raised their guns and aimed the machine guns on their armor at them.
"Damn it, Wei, how dare you..."
"What dare you!"
He grabbed Luis Terrazas' arm tightly with his left hand, dragged him up by force, and then said.
"Someone, handcuff him!"
Wei Changsheng said this as people stared in amazement.
Luis Terrazas shouted excitedly while being tortured.
"Damn it! How could you do this to me? I am the earl of the empire, I am the governor, this is a conspiracy! This must be a conspiracy..."
He was pushed out as Luis Terrazas shouted excitedly.
"I definitely didn't send the assassin. I want to go see the prince. I want to go to Mexico City to see His Majesty the Emperor..."
Until this time, Luis Terrazas still seemed extremely conceited. He believed that the emperor would never dare to do anything to him. After all, there were local nobles like him in every state.
However, what he didn't know was that on the day he was arrested, all the newspapers in Mexico reported a big news - a conspiracy group headed by Luis Terrazas colluded with the United States to assassinate the Prince of California in an attempt to overthrow the royal rule.
Overthrowing the royal rule and establishing a republic might win the support of some republicans, but "colluding with the United States" would not work. What has Mexico's patriotic education been based on in the past thirty years?
It is based on hatred of the United States. Moreover, in the past year, in order to drag Mexico onto the chariot and force the royal family to stop land reform, local nobles including Luis Terrazas have tried their best to incite the people and incite their hostility and hatred towards the United States.
Now, with the accusation of colluding with the United States put on him, Luis Terrazas has naturally become a rat crossing the street, the kind that everyone wants to kill. As for those local Guizhou people, they have also distanced themselves from him. There is no other way. They are also afraid of being implicated. After all, what the newspaper wrote is a conspiracy group. If they become a part of the group, then everything will be over.
Faced with the brutal attack on his son-in-law, the Mexican Emperor Maximilian I, while condemning the crime, naturally ordered a thorough investigation. However, as soon as the investigation began, it was discovered that several local powerful figures were involved in the incident.
Suddenly, Mexico was in turmoil. Within just a few days, many local nobles were arrested. Naturally, you are all part of that conspiracy group.
At a time of panic, when Zhu Youyang, who had been attacked in Chihuahua, returned to Mexico City, Emperor Maximilian I personally went to the train station to greet his son-in-law.
"How is your health? Are you alright?"
As soon as he got in the car, Maximilian I asked with concern.
"I was wearing a bulletproof vest at the time, so I wasn't injured. Right now, I'm most worried about what's going to happen next..."
After taking a look out of the car window, Zhu Youyang said.
"We have to cut the Gordian knot and solve those problems quickly and thoroughly. At the moment, the speed is still too slow."
"this……"
Maximilian I squeaked and mumbled.
"My child, you know, some of them once stood on my side in the war. I think that maybe some people can change their ways. After all, they have shed blood for the empire..."
They shed blood for the empire? Is this a reason to let them go? Is politics so naive? Such naivety will kill people!
"His Majesty,"
Faced with Maximilian I's weakness, Zhu Youyang spoke directly.
"Your Majesty, they have shed sweat and blood for the empire, but under their oppression, ordinary people have extremely difficult production. If we cannot solve the problem fundamentally, then one day, the people's riots will get rid of us. Since they have shed blood for the empire, I believe that for the long-term stability of the empire, they don't mind shedding blood again!"
What!
Don't mind?
Is this possible?
Maximilian I looked at his son-in-law in disbelief and said.
"Do they really not mind?"
Faced with the emperor's inquiry, Zhu Youyang was too lazy to even answer, isn't this asking nonsense? I am reluctant to answer such an idiotic question, but he still said in a light tone.
"I believe they will not mind. After all, they are all loyal subjects of Mexico. How could they mind shedding blood again?"
Seeing that the emperor still had some doubts, Zhu Youyang spoke directly.
"Believe it or not, I believe it anyway!"
The old group is down, so I created a new book club group: 739209015. Everyone is welcome to join and discuss and deduce the plot together.
