Chapter 225: Judgment "Gnord, you have left me with very bad memories, what do you want me to do with you?"
After everyone left, William playfully asked Gnord, and without waiting for Gnod to reply, William smiled and continued: "Gnord, as my mother said, you are a nobleman of high moral character, and I think it is best for someone like you to go and serve God, don't you?"
"William, spare me, William I beg you!"
"Gnord, you have seen something you shouldn't see, do you still hope to live?
You come to your senses."
Saying that, William walked to Gnord's side with his sword, thanks to William's habit of carrying a sword whenever and wherever he wanted, so that he could have a weapon at hand "No !!"
Gnord screamed, but it was too late, and William's saber had already pierced deep into Gnord's chest "Gnord, go to hell!"
William whispered a word in Gnord's money, and then stabbed again, and repeated it three times, thanks to William's personal killing and training of courage, seeing Gnord's round eyes and staring at the scene, William did not have a trace of fear.
William took out his perfumed handkerchief from his pocket, wiped his sword, and walked out.
Louise's screams as he left were heard by many people, but fortunately all but Ferdinand and some of the royal guards were prisoners in prison.
Seeing William walk out, several guards hurriedly saluted him, William nodded and said: "Take me to Prince Ferdinand, and you just didn't hear anything" The guards looked at each other for a moment, and then one of the guards whispered: "Your Majesty, you came out as soon as we came, did something happen before?"
"Well, it's okay, let's go" Led by the guards, William soon found himself in a room outside the prison, where Louise and Ferdinand were speechless.
Seeing William walk in, Ferdinand quickly got up and saluted William, while Louise still sat there coldly without saying a word.
"Ferdinand, I think recently my mother needs to rest, you immediately personally send the Queen Mother back to Sanssouci Palace, and then personally stay in Sanssouci Palace, and tell everyone in the palace that Her Royal Highness the Queen Mother is unwell and no one is allowed to visit!"
As soon as William's words came out, not only Ferdinand's face changed, but even Louise, who was originally sitting coldly, stood up, and the two of them couldn't help but be so excited, William's words were obviously to use Louise's excuse to put her under house arrest under the pretext that Louise was unwell.
"William, you can't do this to me, I'm your mother" "Mother, I don't know what made you like that, but for the sake of Prussia's stability, I need you to recuperate for a while!"
As he spoke, William turned to Ferdinand and commanded: "If someone forcibly makes contact with the Queen Mother, immediately detain her" After finishing speaking, William left the room without looking back, obviously since he had made up his mind, then he could not afford to retreat, whether Louise was intentional or unintentional, Louise's words were already the biggest question about the legitimacy of William's rule of the kingdom.
William will not take risks in such a situation, not even anyone will take risks, there is never a lack of conspiracy and ruthless actions on that high throne, history has proven that in the face of power, father and son can be killed!
William can't bet on Louise unintentionally, because the royal power must be stable, so William needs to put Louise under house arrest for a while.
Just like one of William's most popular rules: it is better to kill a thousand wrong than to spare one.
Immediately after returning to the Brandenburg Palace, Wilhelm summoned all the officials and nobles in the city.
When almost everyone had arrived, William announced: Gnord and his accomplices were convicted of treason, and at the same time he ordered all officials in Brandenburg to be mindful of state affairs, and not to allow the recurrence of corruption and perversion of the law, and to deal with the same treason and punish him severely.
This made everyone present feel related, Gnord's arrogance has been seen by everyone, and now William raised the butcher's knife to Gnord without hesitation, you must know that Gnord is also related to William, but now he has become a victim under the butcher's knife, which makes everyone not tremble.
Of course, for William's proposal, everyone naturally raised their hands in favor, and if there was an eye-opening jump out at this time, there would be no good fruit to eat.
The sentence quickly entered the process, and the 20 nobles involved in the case were executed for treason and their family property confiscated, while more than 50 nobles were stripped of their titles and their territories reduced, and more than 20 officers in the military logistics system were sentenced to life imprisonment for the crime of dereliction of public service.
Within five days, Gnord's case had been settled, and under Wilhelm's personal supervision, the nobles who had been sentenced to death were soon gathered at the entrance of the Brandenburg City Hall and shot.
After this matter was dealt with, William rushed back to Sanssouci Palace, and when he returned to Sanssouci Palace, the first person he saw was Christine, and Charlotte was also beside him.
"Brother William, my mother just went to Brandenburg, what kind of illness did I have, why didn't Grandpa Ferdinand let me go in to see my mother?"
Christine looked at William pitifully, tears were still rolling in her eyes, and William felt distressed when she saw the appearance of her favorite sister "Little Christine is good, my mother is just a little anxious to go to Brandenburg, and I have a cold on the way, but I have a bad cough, so my brother is afraid that the disease will spread to you, so I will let Grandpa Ferdinand take care of my mother."
"But why is Grandpa Ferdinand fine, isn't he afraid of contagion?"
Well, this question gave William a headache, and after thinking for a while, William reluctantly said: "Grandpa Ferdinand is already a little old, this disease is useless for the elderly, so I will let Grandpa Ferdinand take care of my mother, my sister, you can rest assured, soon my mother will be cured" William racked his brains to come up with an unsatisfactory answer, and this answer also put Christine's entanglement to an end temporarily, but the young Christinie didn't know anything, Charlotte did understand a little, What happened to William's trip to Brandenburg, although Charlotte didn't know, but watching Wilhelmshaven leave, Louise immediately chased after him, and Charlotte knew that there must be something inside.
Later, when Locks' granddaughter Karina came to play, Charlotte accidentally learned a shocking news, when Karina just smiled and told everyone that the Gnord family was going to be unlucky, although after asking Karina, there was no reason, but obviously this was not groundless.
After that, Charlotte found that there seemed to be a group of undercurrents surging in the entire Sanssouci Palace, judging from the anxious look on the faces of the palace attendants, it must not be a trivial matter, and not long after, Louise was personally sent back by Ferdinand, although Louise chanted regent or something all the way, but Ferdinand and the guards couldn't help but push Louise back to her dormitory.
Charlotte, who was older than Christiane, was frightened at the sight of this, and she hugged Christine tightly when she wanted to rush to Louise, and Charlotte, who already had some idea of politics, knew that there was only one person in Prussia who could make Ferdinand behave like this, and that was King William of Prussia, her younger brother.
Looking at Charlotte, who was saluting respectfully, William nodded and said: "Charlotte, don't be polite, get up, you take Christine to play, I still have some things to deal with" "No, I'm going to play with my brother" Cristiny heard that William wanted to stand up for herself and hurriedly objected, but her objection was obviously invalid "Good, go play with Sister Charlotte, if you behave well, my brother will take you on an outing" Hearing William's conditions, Christine was relieved, and then under Charlotte's pull, Christine obediently followed Charlotte away.
Seeing Charlotte, who was much more respectful and cautious than usual, William was thoughtful, it seemed that this sister of his was also a precocious woman, thinking in his heart, William's pace sped up a little.
Soon William came to his study, where Ferdinand was sitting, and when he saw William come in, Ferdinand stood up and saluted.
"No need to be polite, Your Royal Highness, there is nothing unusual about my mother, right?"
William walked quickly to the chair and sat down and asked, hearing his culture, Ferdinand hurriedly replied: "Her Royal Highness the Queen Mother is all right, except for a few nonsense when she just returned to the palace, everything else is fine" Hearing Ferdinand's answer, William was relieved "Ferdinand, you should go home first, you've worked hard these days" "If you are loyal to Prussia below, it is not hard to say that it is hard, then, you will leave below" With that, Ferdinand saluted, turned and exited the room "Bouel!"
"Your Majesty, the minister is here" With William's call, Bouel arched out of nowhere and stood in front of William.
"You immediately arrange for someone to monitor Prince Ferdinand, give me everything in every detail, and report it to me immediately if anything is wrong."
"Yes, Your Majesty" Bouel was ordered to turn around and leave "Wait, Bouel" "Your Majesty, please command" "Order the royal guards to be on higher alert during this time, and have the garrison in Potsdam immediately put on guard, in the name that some of the criminals may have been hiding in Potsdam recently because of the War Horse case."
"The minister understood" "Well, let's go down" Now that Louise has uncovered the Regency bomb, William must be prepared to explode at any moment.
Maybe Louise was unintentional, but in the eyes of those who care, this is a great opportunity.
