What's more, Green has served as the crown prince for many years and has many supporters in both the military and political circles. He can transfer power smoothly when he comes to power.
Although Lily is the crown prince, she has only replaced Green for a short time and her foundation is unstable. If Green refuses to give up, civil strife will inevitably result.
The President of the Senate holds an exclusive position and does not need to deliberately please the king. Instead, it is the king who needs to express goodwill to these older generation members of the royal family.
What they need is stability.
It is legal for Lily to inherit the throne, but there is a risk of unrest.
Green's succession to the throne was illegal, but the transfer of power in the kingdom was stable.
Roland escorting Lily is a good thing for her, but is it really a good thing for the Kingdom of Oro?
Looking at Roland's departing back, Brutus smiled bitterly and shook his head, unable to speak.
Now the focus of the conflict comes to Green and Lily.
If one of them is willing to give up power voluntarily, there will be peace in the world.
Who is this lucky guy?
Brutus returned to the Senate and looked at Lily standing in the middle of the hall with a complicated look in his eyes.
He is experienced and knows that some words can be saved, but Lily will never give up.
The child's eyes were a little confused when he first entered the Senate, but they instantly brightened up after Roland showed up.
Now there was a blazing fire burning in her eyes, and she would not retreat unless she died.
Brutus waved his hand, signaling the senators who had wanted to watch the show to disperse.
The only ones left in the huge Senate were the Dean and Lily, who had declared herself the queen.
"Your Highness Lily."
"You will not address me as Your Majesty?"
Lily was not angry at the old dean's address, and there was even a hint of teasing at the corners of her mouth.
Brutus sighed and said helplessly: "You haven't been officially crowned yet, so I can't call you Your Majesty."
Although there was no coronation, the old king had passed away and the crown prince should have automatically inherited the throne.
Brutus's words also mean that he and the Senate have not yet fully recognized Lily.
The old dean looked around the room, confirmed that no one was present, and asked in a deep voice, "Is power so important?"
"Grandpa Brutus, you should ask Green this question instead of blackmailing me."
Lily calmly exposed the other party's routine.
The old dean looked at Lily in surprise and murmured, "You wouldn't have said that before."
Lily responded calmly: "I was just the crown prince before."
She wouldn't say that she learned a lot from Roland, but it was a fact.
She would not have said this before, and she would even patiently explain it to Brutus and the Senate.
But she didn't want to explain now.
She was the crown princess, and when the old king died, she was supposed to succeed to the throne.
Whoever opposes is a traitor.
The old dean knew that persuasion was useless, so he could only sigh again and asked quietly, "His Highness Green has been the crown prince for many years and has countless followers in the court and the country. What if he refuses to give in?"
"Rebellious ministers and traitors will be punished by everyone."
Lily spoke calmly, as if she was talking about a trivial matter.
She raised her head sharply and looked at Brutus, her voice somewhat stern.
"Dean, you shouldn't get involved in these things."
Brutus was speechless for a moment. The Senate really shouldn't get involved in these matters.
They have the right to interfere in the succession to the throne, but only when it is disputed.
Lily's position as heir is undisputed, why are they interfering?
After saying this, Lily knew there was no need to talk anymore, so she said hello to Brutus and turned to leave.
When she left the Senate, she stopped and said calmly, "Seven days after my father's funeral, it will be the day I ascend the throne."
After saying this, she left without looking back.
She didn't want to explain more, because those old foxes in the Senate were all shrewd people, and a few words would not be able to change them at all.
Only by showing strength and attitude can you make them abide by the rules.
She doesn't have much personal support and lacks strength, so she can only make up for it with her attitude.
She knew that in the eyes of many elders, she was a good girl and a good child, and she had been sensible since childhood, so these old guys wanted to use moral kidnapping to make her "do good for the country" and voluntarily withdraw.
She must make these people realize that choosing her is truly good for the country.
The importance of maintaining the dignity of inheritance law far exceeds the level of the heirs.
Unless the successor is an absolute idiot, coming to power will harm the country.
As long as she can prove that she is capable of governing the country, the old guys will make the right choice, Lily thought silently.
Lily left the Senate and walked towards the bedroom.
Green, who was silently observing from a high building opposite the Senate, was stunned when he saw Lily coming out alone.
What happened to the Senate?
What happened to the Kingdom of Gracia?
What about the promised international litigation?
Green's expression was very ugly, and he vaguely felt that he had been fooled.
According to convention, Lily would have to stay in the Senate until the lawsuit was over, but she walked out openly.
There are only two possibilities.
First, she was not charged.
Second, she won the case on the spot.
No matter how you think about it, it seems outrageous.
The Kingdom of Gracia was indeed acting with his sister.
They never thought of filing a lawsuit from the beginning to the end, but instead escorted Lily back home under the guise of escort.
It's a pity that the Calvin family's rubbish is so useless that a fifth-level sorcerer failed in attacking a sleeping person.
Just as Green was gritting his teeth, Lilyful, who had just walked out of the Senate, looked up with a hint of compassion.
The brother and sister's eyes met and froze in the air.
After staring for a moment, the two looked away, as if nothing had happened.
Lily left calmly, as if Green had not sent anyone to assassinate her.
Green's expression didn't change at all.
But the moment their eyes met, they both understood each other's intentions.
There is only one person who has the right to inherit the throne.
Lily has the legal basis, Green has his followers, and what follows is a life-and-death struggle.
Lily walked back to the palace gate and was thinking about whether to send someone to invite Roland. She turned around suddenly and saw Roland standing behind the gate with his hands behind his back, looking at the fountain and smiling.
She walked quickly forward, stood behind Roland, and said softly, "Thank you."
"You're not scolding me anymore?"
"I, I didn't..." Lily argued in a low voice.
Roland turned around and looked at her, and said calmly: "I'm sorry, your acting skills are a little inferior. I really can't bet that you won't reveal any flaws."
"Don't, don't say that. I'm already very grateful that you can help me."
Roland's eyes swept across her cheek and he asked calmly, "If I'm in danger, will you do your best to help me?"
Without waiting for Lily to answer, he gave the answer directly, "Of course, and without hesitation."
Indeed, the Kingdom of Oro joined Roland's war against the goblins.
He remembered it very clearly, that it was a timely help.
"What are you going to do next?"
"Let my father rest in peace first, and then prepare to ascend the throne."
"What if Green rebels?"
"Kill him." Lily's voice was not loud, but there was no hesitation at all.
Roland nodded and said with a smile, "Very good, I want to hear your plan. Don't worry, no one else can hear our conversation."
Lily knew that he was a super magician, so she just nodded, pondered for a moment, and said softly:
"I won't rely on luck. He must die. But I'm a little confused now. You're a bystander, so you must be calmer. Do you have any good ideas?"
This is what Roland was waiting for. He smiled and said, "Green can only do two things: coup d'état or assassination."
"Assassination? He has failed." Lily looked at Roland in confusion.
"You don't even think he can carry out an assassination, which makes the action sudden."
Lily's face turned grim, and she pinched the hem of her skirt and gave Roland a standard lady's greeting.
"You are right, I underestimated the enemy."
Seeing that she was so receptive to advice, Roland felt more at ease.
Although they are allies, they must have a clear plan of action. Lily is the leader of the Oro Kingdom.
If she was stubborn and refused to listen, Roland would have to consider a way out.
Fortunately, she can understand what people say.
"This is Oro, your country, and you have to be responsible for the country and the people. Green is a power grabber and saboteur. He can sabotage at will, and even mobilize the army to launch a coup, but you can't do that.
"I have three options for you to choose from."
This is standard military strategist talk.
Some military advisors will even disguise the best strategy as the worst strategy to trick rebellious lords.
Lily wasn't that rebellious, so Roland didn't bother to think about it.
The three strategies he provided were even the best ones.
"You can come up with three strategies in such a short time. Your Majesty Roland is indeed a wise man of the time!"
Lily's admiring gaze made Roland blush. He smiled and said, "Let's not be so formal with each other. This is not a diplomatic occasion. There's no need to call you Your Majesty all the time."
"Then please help me, Mr. Roland!" Lily nodded with a smile, and deliberately asked for help in a very exaggerated tone.
"The best strategy is to cut the Gordian knot and find an opportunity when Green's defense is off. I will lead experts to find an opportunity to secretly attack and kill him directly, and put an end to it all."
"If we do this, the Senate and the people of the country will discuss it, right?" Lily was shocked by Roland's plan.
"Of course, so keep your hands and feet clean."
"What if we are discovered?"
"What else can I do? Just pass the blame on to me. When you ascend the throne, just issue me a pardon."
Lily was speechless on the spot. Roland's best strategy was indeed cruel. In a life-and-death struggle, who would want to be reasonable? Killing people first and then cleaning up the mess was quick, accurate and cruel.
It's a pity she can't do it.
Her foundation is weak. If she uses this method to seize power, she will probably be talked about by others for the rest of her life, and it will leave serious hidden dangers.
"The middle strategy is to borrow my 5,000 elite soldiers to surround his residence directly, and then use the excuse that he is trying to assassinate you to break in and arrest him."
"Relying on foreign troops to stage a coup would pose too many hidden dangers." Lily hesitated for a long time, sighed softly, and shook her head with difficulty to refuse.
Roland shrugged. As expected, every lord would choose the worst option. This must be the fate of a military advisor.
