Akagi said hurriedly while watching this scene.

"It doesn't matter. He can't run away." Nadezhda said confidently.

"Now, let's get rid of these good-for-nothings."

Nadezhda said as she looked at the desperate crowd in front of her.

Not long after, the minister was running quickly on the street with his strong legs.

"General, please save me."

Seeing Bud standing at the gate of the palace, the minister immediately relaxed.

Chapter 126: Esdeath’s grand welcome ceremony!

The imperial capital.

"General Budd, you don't know that the imperial capital is in chaos right now. The night raid has already started killing people in broad daylight. Quick, quick, let me in to protect His Majesty."

Looking at the dignified man in armor, the minister breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he and General Budd usually did not get along, he knew that if there was anyone who could defeat the Night Raid now, it would only be Budd.

Compared to the traitorous Esdeath, General Budd, who has always been loyal to the royal family, is the most trustworthy.

Although General Bud disliked the ministers, he would turn a blind eye as long as the ministers did not harm the emperor.

This is also the reason why the minister kept General Budde because he knew that he disliked him.

Otherwise, if he was directly ordered to confiscate the imperial weapon in the name of the emperor, then the loyal General Bud would definitely hand over the imperial weapon honestly.

Bud's life was always in the hands of the emperor, in other words, in the hands of his ministers.

After all, the emperor has a natural trust in his ministers...

The minister also needs to use General Bud, the most trusted general of the royal family, to check and balance Esdeath.

So...even though General Bud and the minister seemed to be at odds with each other, the minister still did not take action against General Bud.

Now looking at General Budd who was guarding the palace gate, the minister's short legs moved very quickly.

Only then did he realize what a correct choice he had made.

As long as he had General Budd, the imperial capital would always have hundreds of thousands of imperial guards in his hands.

Faced with an army of tens of thousands, even Esdeath had to retreat.

"Esdeath... You are dead this time. No one can help you."

As the minister approached the general in front of him, he cursed in his heart.

Apparently, he felt that his dignity had been destroyed by a general who had caused him to flee in disgrace.

However, looking at the minister who was getting closer and closer, General Bud just looked at him coldly and then waved his hand.

"boom!"

"brush!"

The many soldiers guarding the palace walls raised their rifles in unison and pointed them at the minister in front of them.

"Zi!!!"

With the black muzzles of guns pointed at him, the minister's short legs stopped as if the brakes had been applied, less than ten meters away from the palace gate.

"General Bud, what are you doing?"

Looking at the black muzzles of the guns, a drop of cold sweat oozed from the minister's forehead.

If he hadn't braked quickly, he would have been killed by the guns in front of him.

"Your Majesty has ordered that the imperial capital is in chaos and the palace is sealed off. No one is allowed to enter or leave."

"This is His Majesty's will, please understand."

General Bud looked at the minister in front of him calmly, with mockery and contempt in his eyes.

He was particularly disgusted with the parasites of this empire.

Now that he finally had the chance to disgust the minister, he would naturally exaggerate.

"Minister, please step back ten meters. According to the Imperial City Law, during the period of martial law, no one is allowed to approach within ten meters of the Imperial Palace. Violators will be killed without mercy."

He looked coldly at the minister in front of him and said.

"Sir, I have given you a lot of face. I didn't kill you when you came within ten meters. Please cooperate with me."

"No...I'm the emperor's most trusted minister! Can't I come in?"

He patted his chest, and the fat on his body flew up, but his legs obediently retreated ten meters away.

"I'm sorry, sir. There is no provision in the Imperial City Law that a minister can violate."

General Budde faced the minister's questioning and spoke calmly.

Minister: ...

"Esdeath has committed treason. She was the one who commanded this night raid."

"General Bud, do you also want to commit treason like her?"

Looking at General Bud who refused to open the door, the impatient minister asked hurriedly.

"What? That's really nice... Ahem, there is such a thing."

General Bud was taken aback and seemed quite shocked.

The minister's eyebrows twitched wildly. Don't think he didn't hear what he said, well done.

But now the situation forces him to bow his head...

"So if the general doesn't lead his troops to defeat Esdeath quickly, it will be all over if he really controls the imperial capital."

He spoke hurriedly, as if he was quite anxious.

"I'm sorry, but the mission assigned to me by His Majesty is to guard the Imperial City. No one is allowed to enter or leave."

However, after being surprised, General Bud quickly returned to normal, raised his left hand and spoke seriously.

"You...you're not going to join Esdeath, are you?"

Looking at the conservative General Bud in front of him, the minister suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Please don't talk nonsense."

General Bud looked at the minister in front of him with a smile.

"Be careful or I'll sue you for libel."

"How did you convince General Budd?"

Luo Zhen looked at Esdeath in front of him with a strange expression and asked.

The minister probably didn't know that the General Esdeath, the person he feared the most, had been following him all the way.

I saw him tumble over and over again and fall into the gutter again and again, but I never took any action.

He even took action several times to prevent the surrounding troops from approaching the minister in front of him.

Otherwise, given that there was no one to protect the minister, he would have been captured by other troops long ago.

Esdeath witnessed his entire miserable journey until she saw him arrive in front of the imperial city.

Luo Zhen looked at General Bud who stopped the minister, and his mouth twitched. He looked at Esdeath beside him with some emotion.

"Now that I know the plot, it's impossible for me to follow it."

Esdeath smiled brilliantly, and it was obvious that she had already planned all these things out.

"I am Esdeath, the invincible general in the original story."

The story goes back a few days...

The General's Mansion.

"I wonder what General Esdeath has come for?"

The man in armor looked at the graceful woman in the imperial military uniform in front of him, but he did not appreciate her charm like ordinary people.

There was always a hint of vigilance in his eyes.

After all, Esdeath's record is too cruel, and the losers in her hands will never have a good ending.

This made General Budd, who was always old-fashioned and abided by military ethics, feel a little uncomfortable.

However, as he was guarding the imperial city, he also knew that if it weren't for Esdeath, the foreign tribes in the north would have marched in long ago, and the revolutionary army in the south would have started the war long ago.

So he also has great respect for Esdeath.

"I am here for only one thing..."

Esdeath sat opposite General Bud and said to him with a smile.

"I think the throne is quite interesting. I want to try sitting on it."

For a moment, the room fell into deathly silence...

General Bud looked at the pretty blue-haired girl in front of him with disbelief. He never expected that Esdeath, one of the pillars of the empire, would say such a cruel word.

"Are you kidding me? And you're kidding me?"

General Bud laughed out of anger and said with a frown.

"I am your Majesty's general. How can I allow you to seize the world? The late emperor has been kind to me and ordered me to protect your Majesty. How can I hand over your Majesty's throne?"

"General Esdeath, if you are joking, then we can just laugh it off. If you are not joking, then don't blame me for being rude."

His eyes were slightly cold, and the imperial weapons on his body were eager to try.

"I'm not kidding..."

Esdeath calmly raised the teacup in her hand, tasting the fragrant tea in the cup elegantly and said.

"I just want to leave a chance for the little emperor to survive, so that he won't really die."

"I think it's you who wants to die!!!"

General Bud was suddenly furious at this moment. Thinking back to the kindness the late emperor had shown him, he was furious.

"Hey... why are you so angry? Can't you talk calmly?"

Esdeath let out a long sigh and tapped the table gently.

In an instant, General Bud felt cold under his feet and he subconsciously looked down.

The legs that were originally wearing long boots were suddenly frozen, and the black ice that penetrated the bones meandered all the way up, and his lower body could not move at all.

"boom!"

General Bud wanted to try hard, but the black ice bound his feet to the ground as tightly as if they were made of bronze.

"If you think you can make me surrender like this, then I am just daydreaming."

Seeing that he couldn't pull his legs out, General Bud gritted his teeth and looked at Esdeath in front of him and said.

"The Empire has been very kind to you, why would you do such a thing? You even want to kill the king..."

"You are wrong. If I wanted to kill the king, I would not come to you."

Esdeath listened to General Bud's words and said to him with a smile.

"Then why do you say that your Majesty's life is in danger?"

General Bud calmed down and realized something was wrong. He looked at Esdeath with some confusion.

"You might as well take a look at this."

Esdeath picked up a few documents and handed them directly to General Bud.

Although Bud's feet were trapped, his hands were still able to move.
