Not exactly sure how this is working... so I'm adding on to blob.
With Ausich being proclaimed the Most Valuable Baron (mvb) the other lesser know barons became jealous. They created a diplomatic coalition to strip Ausich of his power. All was fine and dandy, until the coalition invited Count Doofenshmirtz (yeah, I watched that show) who is loyal to Lucy. When the Count caught wind of this rebellion sweeping through the lesser barons, he quickly put an end to it. How? You'll have to tune in next time.
