The surrounding scene seemed to be spinning, making him dizzy.
"Fear." Hughes only felt that it was difficult to breathe.
"Remember this feeling." Joseph V lowered his head, staring at his son with sharp eagle-like eyes, and said in an unprecedentedly serious tone, "Because once you sit in this position, this feeling will surround you all the time, It makes you panic, it's hard to breathe, it's like a mountain pressing down on you, making you crawl forward."
Hughes had fine beads of sweat on his forehead, rolling down in big ones. I don't know if it was because of the feelings Joseph said, or because of the hints in his words.
"Father Emperor."
Hughes forced himself to calm down, stood up from the throne in a hurry, and hurriedly stepped aside.
"I know you have a lot of questions." Joseph V sat back down again, and his voice became calm again, "There are some things that I should tell you."
Hughes immediately bowed and listened.
"I know that you have a lot of opinions about my delay in determining the crown prince and allowing the royal family to fight among themselves, but I did this for your own good. If I really make you the crown prince, you will be like your elder brother."
Hughes is the second prince, and he also has an excellent elder brother, but unfortunately died young, accidentally sacrificed in a very inconspicuous military operation.
After a long investigation, it was determined to be an accident.
Hughes was shocked, "So it wasn't an accident?"
"How could it be an accident." Joseph V sneered.
"But we are the royal family, the supreme Mecklenburg family. If even the royal heir cannot be protected, will our throne be stable? We can only lead the huge Galactic Empire?" Hughes asked in disbelief.
"So our throne is not secure."
Joseph V answered without hesitation, making Hughes slump to the ground.
"turn out to beโฆ"
"Hughes, I'm dying, I hope you don't make the same mistake as me again." A trace of remorse appeared on Joseph's old face, and he heard the words of his brother again in his ears.
Brother said that he would definitely regret it.
Brother said he was digging the roots of the Mecklenburg family.
It's ridiculous that he looked down on his brother's cowardice at the beginning, so he resolutely staged a coup, and only after he was crowned did he realize his brother's difficulties.
But does he regret it?
No! He never regrets what he has done.
Not even death.
Joseph V may not be suitable to be a king, but he is a hero and will never admit defeat.
He has been secretly fighting with the seven guardian dukes, the cabinet, and the military for so long, how could he admit defeat.

In the end, Hughes didn't know how he got out of the imperial palace. When he walked through the suspended corridor made of ice crystals, he could hardly stand. Fortunately, he was supported by his confidant who was waiting here in time.
"Your Highness, your face is ugly, do you want to call the doctor?"
"Need not!"
Hughes quickly restrained his emotions and turned back to the calm and indifferent second prince.
"Notify the Senate that His Majesty is not feeling well, so he will not come forward."
"yes!"
The confidant immediately sent the order through the working terminal.
"Your Highness..." There was a trace of hesitation on the face of the confidant, "There is one more thing."
"You said, what's the matter?"
"Master Murphy has been released."
"What?" Hughes turned pale with shock.
"Master Murphy has been released. He is temporarily locked up in his private residence in the noble district. There are soldiers guarding the outside and there is no pass order. No one can enter or leave."
