Deposed Crown Prince: After three years of service on the frontier, the entire court knelt and begge

Ed White looked at Robert with satisfaction and said, "Very good..."

With that, Ed White said to Robert, "Alright, go pack your things, we're getting ready to go!"

Robert nodded with a look of delight.

...

Meanwhile, on the other side, Victor King had just received the news.

This is actually where the brilliance of the Illuminati headquarters lies.

They actually released the messages at almost the same time, indicating that they had reached a near-consensus.

After hearing his subordinate's words, Victor King was actually more surprised and angry than Ed White.

The reason is simple: Lingas is the headquarters of the Illuminati.

On a larger scale, it also refers to the areas where most of his industries are controlled, which is one of his core businesses.

Therefore, the riot in that prison is now having a significant impact on him.

Victor King said to the messenger, "So, you mean Lingas is controlled by those pirates? What's going on? What about the four city lords? What about their personal guards? What are they good for? Are they all useless?"

The messenger shook his head: "President, I don't know either. It was just someone from the headquarters who reported this news... and, according to the headquarters, it was Yin Pan'er, the agent of East Asia President Edwight, who sent the report..."

Victor King's face darkened. "What? What about our agent? What about John Jonard? What's he up to?"

The messenger, upon hearing Victor King's words, remained grim: "Master, according to their intelligence, John Jonard has been killed by those pirates..."

Upon hearing this, Victor King flew into a rage: "What! Killed? Then... how come Yin Pan'er isn't dead... Is this news true?"

The messenger looked slightly doubtful: "President, I can only say that the people from the main headquarters are guaranteed to be authentic... the others are not..."

At this moment, one of Victor King's confidants spoke up, "Master, since the entire headquarters has come, this matter is almost certainly settled... You know, things turned out so badly with you, Ed White, before."

"Ed White suffered such a crushing defeat in East Asia, and the headquarters didn't intervene. Now that they've shown their presence, it seems he really is a threat..."

Viktor King frowned slightly after hearing what his trusted confidant said.

"This can't be that serious, can it? They're just a few pirates, right? Those pirates are nothing to worry about... This is such an exaggeration..."

A trusted aide said to Viktor King, "Chairman, we've considered some potential negative consequences... I think this matter might not be as simple as it seems..."

Victor King: "Alright, instead of speculating here, let's go check it out. Aren't the people at headquarters wanting to have a meeting? Let's pack up and get ready to go."

...

Meanwhile, on the other side of the British Empire, Boudica and her group quickly brought the situation under control.

And they controlled public opinion.

When Paul's rebel army attacked, they killed William Patton and Millie Al.

Paul's rebel army has been subdued, and of the 50,000 troops, more than 40,000 were eventually selected.

There are still 10,000 left. Those who want to leave can leave, and those who don't want to leave and wish to remain in the Targaryen Army can also do so.

That means there needs to be a probationary period. If the probationary period is over, then they can stay.

Boudica also established many rules for the Targaryen army.

Of course, Boudica did more than just set rules for them; while setting rules, he also doubled their benefits.

It should be noted that the Targaryen army already enjoyed the best treatment within the British Empire.

Now that it has doubled, it's even better than the sky.

Another piece of news is that after the king died, William Cam became king temporarily.

The entire British Empire entered a period of royal elections.

William Cam announced directly that the William family would withdraw from the selection of the king.

Targaryen Boudica then applied for the king's selection, much to everyone's surprise.

None of the nobles in Luntini participated in this selection.

Since none of the nobles in Lundini participated in the election, nobles in other cities throughout the British Empire naturally knew what had happened...

They certainly wouldn't be so foolish as to run for office.

Therefore, Boudica is currently the only person participating in the election.

Most importantly, Boudica received the unanimous consent of the William family, the El family, the Sion family, and several other prominent ducal families, including Linster.

Even the Lannister family, which rarely expresses its opinion, has expressed its support for the Targaryen family.

Therefore, Boudica became the popular choice.

However, this matter still needs to go through procedures, and for the time being, William Cam will still need to assume the duties of the king.

However, William Cam invited Boudica to take charge several times.

Boudica did not refuse. After taking office, he first stated that he would not unite with Frank and his group.

This also clarified some 'rumors' about her relationship with Frank.

She publicly stated that the British Empire only recognizes the Illuminati!

In fact, the real nobles all knew about Boudica and Frank's relationship.

Moreover, Boudica has already laid her cards on the table with some of the families she's on good terms with, including Frank, who is also listening to her.

Therefore, they all understood.

Boudica was putting on a show for the Illuminati.

As for Frank, Boudica had already sent someone to inform them in advance.

Therefore, they would be aware of this.

At this point, they tacitly agreed to pursue their own paths.

By this time, Frank and his men had already seized the Lannister navy as agreed.

They are very busy right now.

...

Meanwhile, Boudica was reporting these matters to Xiao Ce and Yin Pan'er.

Xiao Ce said to Boudica, "Boudica, you've really been exhausted these past few days... You've worked so hard..."

Boudica said to Xiao Ce, "Ce, I'm really enjoying myself... I'm starting to understand what you're enjoying..."

After hearing Boudica's words, Xiao Ce smiled broadly and then said, "My pleasure?"

Boudica said to Xiao Ce, "That's the joy of strategizing and winning battles from afar...that's the feeling of having everything under control..."

Xiao Ce chuckled and said, "I didn't find this fun either... But you did a great job. When Yin Pan'er said you'd surpassed your teacher, I thought it was a bit of a compliment. Now it seems it's true..."

Boudica smiled after hearing Xiao Ce's words...

"This is mainly thanks to you. Without your weapons and your shadow guards, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to do it at all... They are actually more afraid of my martial prowess..."

Xiao Ce smiled and said, "Everything is difficult at the beginning. My first pot of gold came from these shadow guards. You can train your own shadow guards now. Anyway, you've been with me all this way, so you understand all the tricks I use..."

After listening to Xiao Ce's words, Boudica nodded: "I really do intend to do this next..."

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

It was Xiaoyue who came in.

Yin Pan'er looked at Xiaoyue with a puzzled expression.

Because Xiaoyue's expression was a little tense at this moment.

When Yin Pan'er saw the expression on Xiaoyue's face, she quickly asked, "Xiaoyue, what's wrong? Why do you look so pale?"

After hearing Yin Pan'er's words, Xiaoyue quickly said, "Sir, the people from the Illuminati are here to see you."

Yin Pan'er was somewhat surprised after hearing Xiaoyue's words: "People from the Illuminati came to see me? Are they from the East Asia Association? Or..."

After listening to Yin Pan'er's words, Xiaoyue shook her head and then said, "No... he said it was someone from the headquarters?"

After hearing Xiaoyue's words, Yin Pan'er also showed a puzzled expression: "People from the headquarters? What kind of background do people from the headquarters have?"

After hearing Yin Pan'er's words, Xiaoyue shook her head again and said, "I don't know who the person from the headquarters is. However, judging from that person's mysterious demeanor, they are clearly someone more powerful than the East Asian president and the Western president..."

Seeing Yin Pan'er looking at him questioningly, Xiao Ce said, "It should be the real boss behind the Illuminati..."

Yin Pan'er asked Xiao Ce, "The mastermind? How did you know?"

After listening to Yin Pan'er's words, Xiao Ce smiled and said, "It's just a guess. Actually, it's not hard to guess at this point. Think about it, if there were someone behind the scenes, how could they allow some so-called East Asian president to emerge when the Western president's side was in a dominant position?"

"This East Asia Chairman seems to have appeared out of nowhere. Normally, if Viktor King knew that the East Asia Chairman's appearance would divide their profits, I think he would definitely stop it. Therefore, I think there must be someone pushing this together... That's why Viktor King didn't object..."

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Yin Pan'er nodded repeatedly: "That's right, what you're saying is very possible..."

Then Yin Pan'er looked at Xiao Ce and said, "Your Highness, would you like to leave for a moment?"

Xiao Ce shook his head: "Didn't I prepare some masks? It's fine for us guards to wear masks and stand beside you. Firstly, it will allow me to hear more clearly. Secondly, if you are in danger, I can respond immediately..."

Looking at Xiao Ce's words, Yin Pan'er said with a half-smile, "Oh? Is that so? Don't you trust me?"

After hearing Yin Pan'er's words, Xiao Ce did not hide anything and said directly to Yin Pan'er, "That's right, I do not trust you."

When Yin Pan'er heard Xiao Ce say that, her expression immediately turned awkward.

Xiao Ce quickly said, "Don't misunderstand, I'm just afraid you'll dump me again all by yourself..."

Hearing Xiao Ce say this, Yin Pan'er burst out laughing, then said, "How could that be... Of course not! We agreed to be together... So, naturally we'll be together..."

Seeing Yin Pan'er's confident demeanor, Xiao Ce quickly smiled and said, "That's good..."

Yin Pan'er looked at Xiao Ce, then said to him with a determined expression, "Then you can't go alone..."

Xiao Ce smiled and said to Yin Pan'er, "Of course..."

Yin Pan'er smiled knowingly at this moment.

Just then, Boudica looked at the two men and said, "Gentlemen, should I excuse myself for a moment?"

After listening to Boudica's words, Yin Pan'er nodded: "Boudica, if you want to stay and listen, you can... but you'll need to wear a mask!"

Boudica looked at Yin Pan'er and said, "Sister Pan'er, do you think I need to listen? If not, I won't... Actually, I'm not curious about these things. After all, I have a lot on my own..."

Yin Pan'er nodded subconsciously, then looked at Xiao Ce.

Xiao Ce said to Boudica, "Boudica, you're right. Actually, it doesn't matter whether you listen or not. If you don't want to listen, you can leave first. We'll keep you informed of any news we have here..."

Boudica smiled after hearing Xiao Ce's words, then said, "Then I'll be leaving now..."

Xiao Ce nodded after listening to Boudica's words.

Yin Pan'er looked at Xiao Ce with obvious confusion.

Xiao Ce said to Yin Pan'er, "Pan'er, don't overthink it. Boudica isn't that dramatic..."

Yin Pan'er nodded to Xiao Ce: "Mainly, I'm afraid of love turning into hate. So, I think we still need to handle these relationships properly..."

Xiao Ce laughed heartily, then said to Yin Pan'er, "You know what? Other women might, but Boudica won't. I haven't even told you yet, but Boudica has repeatedly urged me to take the initiative to find you... Actually, I had the same thoughts as you before. I had the same concerns as you... Boudica's attitude made me realize I was overthinking it..."

Upon hearing this, Yin Pan'er gave a bitter smile: "It seems I was still being petty..."

Seeing the two arguing further and further off track, Xiaoyue quickly asked, "Sir, shouldn't we invite that person over now? He must be getting impatient..."

After listening to Xiaoyue's words, the two smiled and said, "He won't be in a hurry, but we've really gone off on a tangent. You can go and call him over..."

After hearing their conversation, Xiaoyue didn't waste any more words, bowed and withdrew, then went to find someone...

At this moment, Yin Pan'er looked at Xiao Ce and asked, "Your Highness, what do you think they're here for this time? They even sent this so-called 'Sect Leader'..."
