MTL - Male Inferiority and Female Supremacy in the World of Immortal Cultivation-Chapter 659 658. Trouble Comes
Chapter 659 658. Trouble is coming
Morgan finally left in embarrassment.
Things are completely messed up, plans have been messed up, and he needs to find a quiet place.
At the top of the palace, Ark watched Morgan leave.
Morgan probably racked his brains and couldn't find out who the insider was, and he didn't expect that what he encountered was a dimensionality reduction blow.
Ark notified Adams and the ministers in advance, and used his spiritual sense to directly control the old king's attendants, and gave the answer Morgan didn't want to see.
As a result, Adams' ascension to the throne is a certainty. Morgan cannot fulfill his promise to the nobles, and those fools will fall to the other side at any time.
In addition to the coup, Morgan has no choice.
This is why Ark intervened in order to conform to history. Otherwise, Morgan would pass on the will of the old king and directly kick out Adams who was kept in the dark, and there would be no subsequent coup.
The news of the old king's death spread quickly throughout the capital, and at the same time, the ministers jointly issued a statement that they would assist the eldest prince Adams in holding a state funeral for the old king.
This statement gave a very clear signal that the successor to the throne is the eldest prince Adams, and the other two princes have no chance.
During the state funeral, the two princes were in constant fear, for fear that the cause of the old king's death would be found out.
The chief court mage, Morgan, disappeared without a trace.
Many people thought that Morgan was too sad to come out to see people because of the death of his friend for many years.
But Ark has been staring at him. The mastermind behind the scenes has no intention of stopping there. Instead, he has been hiding in secret and preparing for a coup d'état.
The state funeral lasted for more than a month. After the old king was buried, it was the time for the new king to ascend the throne.
On the day of enthronement, Adams took the king's exclusive carriage as usual, took his two younger brothers together, and paraded along the street to meet the citizens as the prince.
The subsequent process is to go to the cathedral, accept the blessing of the Archbishop of the Huojiao, then go to the palace, accept the coronation and allegiance of the chief court mage, and finally give a speech in the square to officially become the king.
On the carriage, the two princes looked stiff and waved their arms mechanically.
Morgan, who had disappeared for a long time last night, appeared secretly and told the two to wait patiently, but did not say what to do in detail, fearing that the two idiots would leak the situation.
No matter how stupid the two of them were, they still guessed that Morgan might be making trouble today.
After parading around the capital, the carriage arrived at the cathedral.
There are many religions in the world of Black Soul, and there are also many cults. Huo Huo Cult is one of the religions with a very wide influence, and it is listed as the state religion by many countries.
Adams entered the cathedral and received the blessing of the archbishop before leaving in a carriage and returning to the palace to prepare for the coronation ceremony.
At this time, the palace was already full of officials at all levels. They were scattered on both sides of the King's Avenue, and a long red carpet went straight from the palace gate into the palace.
The carriage stopped in front of the palace gate, and Adams in full attire got off the carriage and walked along the red carpet. The officials on both sides touched their chests and bowed to him in salute. The attendants held flower baskets and threw flower petals to the sky.
The two princes followed behind, watching Adams enjoy this supreme glory, almost contorting their faces with jealousy.
Fortunately, the people around bowed their heads and saluted so they didn't see it.
Walking all the way to the palace, Adams looked up and saw Morgan.
The chief court mage, who hadn't seen him for a long time, stood beside the throne, holding the scepter and crown representing royal power in both hands, and looked at Adams with indifferent eyes.
Adams is very clear that this father's friend doesn't like him, and he has nothing to do about it, he just hopes to impress him with sincerity.
Under the gaze of the ministers, Adams walked slowly through the palace, up the steps, and came to the throne.
He knelt down on one knee towards Morgan. It was not Morgan who knelt, but the scepter and crown held in both hands, which was in awe of the kingship.
According to the usual practice, Morgan should put the scepter on the prince's shoulder at this time, say some words of admonition, and then put the crown on him to complete the coronation ceremony.
But Morgan remained motionless after Adams knelt down, just staring down at the eldest prince.
He was silent for too long, causing the ministers to notice the strangeness and start whispering.
Adams was also puzzled, but he was kneeling at this time, unable to raise his head or get up without authorization, so he could only wait patiently.
Morgan took a while to slowly pick up the scepter and put it on Adams' shoulder.
"Do you think you are the right man for king?"
The entire palace was silent, and the ministers looked at Morgan in surprise. This sentence was not a customary admonition, how could he say nonsense.
The two princes were very excited, coming! The mess is finally here!
Adams was also surprised. He subconsciously wanted to look up, but was held down by Morgan with a scepter: "Answer my question!"
What else can Adams say, of course he can only answer: "I think I am a qualified candidate."
"No, you're not!"
But Morgan retorted loudly: "Your father always told me before he was alive that your character is too weak to be useful, and you are not a candidate to be a king at all. Unfortunately, he passed away before leaving a will. As the chief court mage, I have the obligation Choose a truly qualified successor for your father."
This is what Morgan wants to use as an excuse for the coup. Anyway, the old king is already dead, and he can say whatever he wants if there is no evidence of his death. Moreover, the old king deliberately released rumors in order to stimulate Adams' fighting spirit, which happened to be used by Morgan.
As long as the slogan of the coup d’etat is plausible, others have to believe it if the coup d’etat is successful.
Morgan's explosive speech was like a grenade, which caused an uproar in the entire palace. Officials and ministers at all levels looked at him dumbfounded.
"Nonsense, you rebel..."
A minister jumped out and criticized loudly, but Morgan knocked him down with a spell before he could finish speaking.
With a bang, the gate of the palace was also closed by the guards, locking everyone inside.
More guards swarmed out and surrounded the people in the hall.
The officials and family members who came to watch the ceremony screamed subconsciously, but before that, a magic barrier had fallen, enclosing the entire palace and isolating the sound from outside.
The court mages brought by Morgan also took action one after another, knocking down the nobles who wanted to resist, and quickly controlled the situation.
"Morgan, what are you going to do?!"
Adams raised his head and stared at Morgan, even though he had guessed it, he still couldn't believe it.
"Of course it is to choose a king who can bow to me."
Morgan let out a sneer.
Adams understood in an instant, he was surprised and angry: "So you haven't given up on that research..."
Before he finished speaking, Morgan kicked the cowardly prince away.
