Chapter 238 This is precisely the reason for being king.
Wednesday, July 29th.
Prince Edsack was not able to travel to the cabinet in the grand carriage as expected.
Forced by his teacher, he rode a hundred horses straight from the East End along Central Avenue to the Cabinet headquarters in Queens.
On either side of him were his attendants and knights, including real knights as well as some noble sons he had recruited, such as the riding instructor Talim and other noblemen, who followed closely behind, each holding a huge, fluttering banner.
There are many such flags, and the slogans on them vary. Some are slogans issued by the New Party calling for the protection of the atmospheric environment, some are slogans from the Conservative Party that benefit the people, and many more are slogans calling for improved living conditions for workers, the establishment of reasonable working hours and rest systems, and the establishment of minimum wage standards, among other things.
Chael changed into an inconspicuous face and mingled in the parade like a nobody, holding a flag that demanded an eight-hour workday.
This actually somewhat undermines the political understanding, as it was done without prior consultation with the Ruen royal family.
The original plan was for Edsack to go to the cabinet and criticize them, and it's the same now. However, Xia Erduo arranged a scene. For some reason that can't be said, he even personally followed behind Edsack, holding a flag. He didn't shout any slogans, which was the last bit of defiance from this team.
Yesterday, a severe smog outbreak occurred, resulting in countless deaths. In the early morning, people's eyes still showed confusion and sorrow. They were about to continue their tedious work in a numb way, but the appearance of the Edsack team made their eyes see something unclear and inexplicable.
Prestige...reputation...these are real things.
Edsack's previous actions in opposing various policies had actually earned him a considerable amount of goodwill.
Even if it looks somewhat like the opposition party criticizing the ruling party for being unfilial.
But Edsack is the third prince of the Kingdom of Rune, and the esteemed Earl of Rastin.
His surname is a symbol of orthodoxy, and his banner embodies righteousness.
At this moment, the handsome prince, riding a white horse, accompanied by his banner and retinue, held high the will of the people towards Queens.
The move toward the cabinet and toward Sodrac Palace was itself an inevitable trend.
More and more civilians in the eastern district stopped to watch, and some who had lost loved ones the day before temporarily abandoned their work for the day and instead silently followed Edsack's procession from a distance.
The third prince of Rune looked extremely solemn and heavy-hearted. His expression was so stiff because he was being coerced by his teacher and was at a loss. He could only put on a stern face and grit his teeth to do this.
Now, noticing the growing crowd behind him, the prince unconsciously tightened his grip on the reins. At this point, Edsak felt a heavy weight on his shoulders, and even if the royals came to stop him, Edsak wouldn't really want to.
Compared to the original plan of a simple political struggle, he now seemed to be carrying something else. It was as if he had staked his reputation on this matter. As a prince who was not liked by his father and was regarded as weak and indecisive, Edsack truly felt the weight of this situation.
He glanced back slightly and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his "teacher" following behind him. As they moved from the East District to Queens, more and more civilians came to watch or join in, and he was starting to feel the pressure and was worried that things would get out of his control.
Fortunately, the worst did not happen; the Augustan royal family did not send anyone to stop or warn Edsac.
Along the way, none of the patrolling police officers dared to stop the group led by the Third Prince.
The nobles of Rune, who had received advance notice, were initially furious, feeling that Edsak had abandoned the honor of being a nobleman. They were angry, they were shouting, and they demanded that this absurd farce be stopped immediately.
However, their officials remained silent, and when they actually saw the group, even these nobles of the highest status and most authentic manners in the Kingdom of Rune fell silent.
What a massive crowd it was! The sheer number of people stretched as far as the eye could see.
These people mourned, suppressed their emotions, and waited with anticipation. The long line of people moved without any disturbance. Everyone spontaneously followed behind Edsack's flag. They didn't speak or make any unnecessary movements. They just kept their heads down and silently marched towards Queens, a place that seemed to be in a completely different world from their own.
This is a desperate army.
Yesterday's heavy smog left all the residents of Backlund in a state of distress and confusion.
These people were following the sons of King George III of Loen.
Chael Maynard, who lived in the West End, went even further, taking off his black priest's robes and using a wooden stick to hold up his robes as a flag, and following behind Prince Edsack.
As a deacon of the Church of the Night, he may not be qualified to represent the church, but he has the right to represent himself, and this garment is a testament to his resolve.
This move surprised Edsack, but he didn't have time to think about it anymore; he was getting closer and closer to the palace.
Chael simply exchanged a glance with the trumpeter she had assigned to guide the march, then remained silent, each going about their own business.
Sometimes, Chael also agreed with Miss Justice's point of view that one shouldn't be too radical in doing things.
Therefore, this was just the personal behavior of the third prince of Rune, and everyone else was just "quietly watching the excitement," so it can't be considered radical, right?
Shael's actions seemed to be a signal. A Storm Pigeon following behind the group was inspired and moved. Without much hesitation, he took off his Storm Priest robes, found a stick, and held them up.
This was just the beginning. The clergy of the Mechanical Church, who had the closest ties with the factory, also took off their clerical robes for their own benefit and for the benefit of the church, and held this garment, which had once represented holiness, high above their heads.
This scene made the nobles standing on the high platform twitch with excitement.
Both the Conservative Party and the New Party fell into an unusual silence, and the methods they had originally devised to intercept or disperse the crowds seemed to have lost all meaning at this moment.
Doesn't the royal family do anything about it?
Lord Agusid Negan, a Conservative, and Earl Hall, one of the leaders of the New Party, exchanged a glance, both seeing deep helplessness and headaches in each other's eyes.
