Chapter 1313: Deposing the Regent

Camille is such a smart person. Just by looking at Ilsa, she could tell that Ilsa had no interest in dealing with the Rennes family.

"Since His Majesty is not willing to eradicate the Wren family now, let's put this matter on hold for now. Let's discuss it later when we have freed up time and energy."

"Your Majesty, let's talk about the next thing."

Camille cleared her throat.

Then he lowered his voice and said in a deep voice:

"Your Majesty, I have been feeling strange since I came to the Britannia Empire."

"Strange?" Ilsa asked confused. "What's weird?"

"I've always been wondering - Your Majesty, why don't you depose the regent?"

Camille's words made Ilsa's expression freeze instantly.

Camille pretended not to see Ilsa's frozen expression and continued:

"The reason why His Highness Gale was appointed as the Regent was purely because during the Great Patriotic War last year, Your Majesty was too late to rush back to Pendragon. Therefore, His Highness Gale was appointed as the Regent to temporarily prime the country and stabilize the country. "People's hearts."

"After your Majesty successfully returns to Pendragon, there should be no need for the regent to exist."

"But Your Majesty, you have always retained the title of Regent of His Highness Gale, until now."

"It's very strange, Your Majesty. There is obviously no need for a regent now, so why has His Highness Gale retained the title of regent?"

After saying that, Camille looked calmly at Ilsa, who had her mouth tightly closed and didn't say a word.

"Is it because you can't be cruel to your father?"

Ilsa remained silent.

But her slowly clenched fists had already answered Camille's question on her behalf.

"Your Majesty." Camille sighed softly, "You can obviously be decisive in many places, but why are you so hesitant in places like this?"

"... Anyway, retaining my father's title of regent will not have any bad effects, so what's wrong with letting my father always have this title..."

Before Ilsa could finish her words, Camille retorted in a stern tone:

"Your Majesty, the impact is huge!"

"You shouldn't be unaware - many ministers and nobles in the country are quite dissatisfied with you since the end of the Great Patriotic War last year."

"Although we won the Great Patriotic War last year, our Britannia Empire also suffered heavy casualties."

"Many ministers and nobles believe that it is because the person sitting on the throne is a little girl who is not yet a minor that the country has suffered such great damage."

"So many people really want to remove you from the throne and push His Majesty Gale to the throne."

"If you keep His Highness Gale's title of regent, it will only leave too many thoughts for those who hope to remove you from the throne."

"Your Majesty, it is impossible that you have not noticed this."

"Although you discovered this, you have been ignoring it and unwilling to face this problem."

"Your Majesty, please show the same courage as you did when you issued the 'Territory Order' and built the plantation, depose His Highness Gale from the title of regent, and then completely keep him away from the central government so that he can no longer threaten your throne. ”

"no!"

As soon as Camille finished speaking, Ilsa said loudly.

"He is my father. How can I drive my father out of the Britannia Empire?"

"Your Majesty..." Camille wanted to say something more.

But Ilsa gave her no more chance to speak.

"Camille, please step back first..."

Ilsa said softly with a tired tone.

"I'm tired and want to take a rest. Let's stop here for tonight's meeting. If there's anything else, let's wait until later..."

"……yes."

After bowing respectfully to Ilsa, Camille slowly exited Ilsa's study.

…

…

After the study door closed, Camille looked back at the heavy study door.

Then he whispered in a low voice that only he could hear clearly:

"Compensation mentality..."

Just by observing Ilsa's behavior and briefly talking to Ilsa, Camille accurately grasped Ilsa's psychology and deduced the reason why Ilsa has always retained the title of Regent of Gale. for the sake of.

It was purely to compensate Gale.

According to the normal order of succession, Gozevin should pass the throne to his only son Gale, and then Gale would pass the throne to his only daughter Ilsa.

However, Gozevin skipped Gale and passed the throne directly to Ilsa, making Ilsa the 13th emperor in the history of the Britannia Empire.

Ilsa has always felt guilty about this kind of "jumping inheritance", and she felt very guilty about her father.

This throne obviously belongs to Gale first, and then to her.

But now she has skipped Gale and directly inherited the throne. This makes Ilsa always have the illusion that she has taken over other people's things.

I felt sorry for my father and actually robbed my father's things.

It was precisely because of this feeling of guilt that Ilsa never deposed Gael's title of regent.

The purpose was to compensate Gale, who had "taken away" the throne from her.

In Camille's eyes, this desire to compensate Gale was simply unreasonable.

In fact - Camille originally planned to propose a more radical method to Ilsa.

Many ministers and nobles are dissatisfied with Ilsa because of last year's National Defense War and this year's "Land Reclaiming Order", and want to push Gale to the top - this is true.

Then - as long as Gale disappears, these ministers and nobles who have lost their candidates will naturally fall apart.

Camille wanted to propose to Ilsa tonight - let Gale disappear from this world completely.

But she knew that Ilsa loved her father very much, and the relationship between father and daughter was also very good.

Ilsa would never agree to such a radical measure, and it might even annoy Ilsa.

Therefore, Camille could only bury her radical measure deep in her mind and proposed to Ilsa the not-too-radical measure of "keeping Gale away from the center".

……

……

After arriving at Pendragon, Kong Nan did not leave Pendragon.

Kong Nan entered the capital under the banner of congratulating Ilsa on the complete victory of the National Defense War.

Now that the banquet is over and the congratulations are over, as the current head of the Ryan family, he should hurry back to continue to manage the business of their Ryan family.

But he seemed to want to stay in Pendragon for a while. Even though the celebration banquet was over, he was still reluctant to leave.

Ilsa ignored it, and at the same time, she didn't care about Kong Nan who hadn't left Pendragon yet.

After all, Kong Nan was a legal citizen of the empire, and he could stay in Pendragon as long as he wanted.

Not only Ilsa, but also others led by Camille didn't care about Kong Nan who had stayed in Pendragon.

They just thought that Kong Nan might want to rest in the prosperous imperial capital for a while.

Only Kong Nan understood that the reason why he hadn't left Pendragon yet was purely to implement his plan.

He was waiting now.

Waiting for his eldest son Philip to return to Lef City.

When Philip successfully returned to Lef City and led the whole family to prepare to retreat to the Rollin Empire at any time, he could officially start to implement his plan.
