The Prince was finishing his speech at the balcony that looked over the massive amount of soldiers he had gathered. He had started it and was having it broadcast not just around the planet but to other planets in the Vexical Empire. There was even a good chance that other countries' rulers or ruling factions were watching the broadcast as well.
Prince Cassius Vexical, the first prince of the Vexical Empire, was declaring his intentions to commit a coup to replace his inept father. He was also already declaring the deaths of his siblings at the hands of assassins when he had yet to be notified that the attempted assassinations had failed. It was just like him to completely jump the gun like this. Fortunately they did not pick the prince because of his intelligence but rather because of his lack of intelligence.
