"A rebellion? What's going on? Why did this happen so suddenly?"
Aldric was stunned by his mother's words.
Vanessa shook her head.
"I don't know either. It happened so suddenly. Your uncle said it's most likely because many people disagree with Seira becoming the temporary empress."
Aldric fell silent. He hadn't expected things to turn out this way.
"So, what's Uncle Jason going to do? Send troops to attack the rebels?"
Vanessa looked uncertain.
"To be honest, your uncle hasn't made a decision yet. He said he's still waiting for orders from the imperial palace."
"Hmm…"
Aldric rubbed his chin, deep in thought.
Suddenly, an idea came to him.
"Mother, what if I led the troops to put down the rebellion?"
Vanessa was stunned. The next moment, her face lit up with joy.
"You're so smart! How did I not think of that?"
The rebellion was a serious problem that could easily turn into a major crisis.
