Chapter 129 Chapter 129 But I Love You

I woke up, or at least I regained my sanity.I lay on the bed, and the warm and soft breath surrounded me.I didn't move, just cautiously searched for that pain.Instead of the throbbing pain in my head, I just felt exhausted and stiff after the pain, and then a shudder ran down my back.Molly lay naked next to me, breathing softly against my shoulder.The fire was so weak that it was almost extinguished.I listened, it was either very late or very early, and the castle was almost silent. I don't remember how I got here. I shivered again, and Molly, who was beside me, moved too, moved closer to me, and smiled sleepily.

"You're weird sometimes," she breathed, "but I love you." She closed her eyes again. Night Eyes! I'm here.It's always there. Suddenly I couldn't ask, didn't want to know, and just lay there bored and sad and sad for myself. I tried to wake you up, but you're not ready to recover.That other guy is wasting you. That "other guy" is our king. be your king.Wolves have no king. What's going on... I let the thought fade away.Thank you for watching over me. It sensed my reservations.Otherwise what should I do?Want her to leave?She was sad then.

I don't know, but let's stop talking.Molly was sad and it comforted her?I don't even know why she's sad, I correct, always sad.Seeing the soft smile on her sleepy face, I sighed, it's better to face it now than to delay it.Besides, I'll have to take her back to her own room, and it won't do her any good to stay here when everyone in the castle is awake. "Molly?" I called softly. She moved and opened her eyes. "Fitz." She replied still sleepily. "For safety's sake, you should go back to your own room." "I know, I shouldn't have come." She paused for a while, "What I said a few days ago, I didn't..."

I put a finger on her lips and she smiled. "You made this brief moment of silence . . . very interesting." She moved my hand aside and kissed me passionately before sliding off the bed and getting dressed quickly.I got up and moved more slowly, and she gave me that loving look, "It's safer for me to go back by myself, and no one else can see us together." "One day, that will..." I began to speak, and this time she put her little hand on my lips, asking me to be quiet. "Let's stop talking about this now and let's keep it this way tonight! It's perfect." She kissed me again and quickly slipped from my arms to the door, closing it softly with her back to her.Perfect?

When I was dressed I lit the fire, sat in a chair by the fire and waited.Presently the passage to Chade's room opened, and I climbed the stairs as fast as I could to find Chade sitting in front of his fireplace. "You have to listen to me." I greeted him.He raised his eyebrows vigilantly when he heard my solemn tone, and pointed to a chair opposite him. I was about to sit down, but what Chade did next made my hair stand on end. I saw him glance around as if we were standing in the middle of a crowd, then he touched his lips, made a soft quiet gesture, and leaned towards me until our heads almost touched. "Sit down gently, gently. What's the matter?"

I was still sitting in the same place by the fireplace, and I could only feel my heart beating loudly in my chest.It's okay to be discreet in the rest of Buckkeep, but I never expected to be discreet here. "Okay," he said to me with a sigh, "report!" I took a breath and told him verbatim that my connection with Verity made the whole thing clear, and explained in detail: the jester's beating, Kettricken's gift to Bearnes, my How to serve the king, Tanning and Zegu come into my chamber, etc.He pouted but wasn't surprised when I whispered about Regal's spies, and looked at me calmly when I was done.

There was another whisper. "And what's your conclusion?" he asked me, as if trying to teach me something with this conundrum. "Can I directly express the doubts in my heart?" I asked calmly. He nodded. I breathed a sigh of relief.I felt a sense of relief as I described the images that had been in my mind for the past few weeks, and Chade knew what to do, so I kept it short.Regal knew that the king's life would be numbered due to illness, and Wallace was his tool to calm the king so that the king would listen to his own whispers.Regal continued to speak ill of Verity, and wanted to use up what was left of Buckkeep.He would abandon Bynes so that the Red Ships could take it, keep them busy for their own ambitions; and he would paint Kettricken as a king-robbing foreigner and wicked, unfaithful wife.He wanted to gather power in one person, and his ultimate goal was to become king, or at least take most of the six principalities into his own hands, so he spent a lot of time entertaining the inland duke and the local nobles.

Chade nodded reluctantly as he listened.When I paused, he said softly, "You said Regal was weaving a web, but I found that Regal's web had many holes." "I can add something in." I whispered. "Suppose the Skill Group created by Galen is loyal to Regal? Suppose all messages are sent to him first, and only those messages approved by him will follow the original process to reach the original destination?" Chade's expression was silent and heavy. I whispered more flusteredly, "What if our self-defense is being weakened by the delay? He makes Verity look like a fool, and everyone's confidence is undercut."

"Can't Verity see it?" I shook my head slowly. "His Spirit powers are strong, but he cannot hear all directions at the same time. His strongest skill is the extreme concentration of Skill power, but if it is to monitor the members of his own Skill team, I am afraid that there is no way to guard the coastal defenses. The Red Ships are coming." "And does he... Verity sense our current conversation?" I shrugged in shame. "I don't know, it's just the misfortune of my own shortcomings. My connection with him is not stable, sometimes I can clearly feel his mind, as if he is standing next to me and talking loudly, but other times I don't know. Barely feel him. Last night, when they had a conversation through me, I heard every word. But now...

"I searched inside like I was fumbling in my pockets," and I just felt connected. "I leaned forward and held my head, feeling like I was going to collapse. "Tea?" Chade asked me gently. "Okay. I still want to sit quietly for a while longer. I don't know when my head has been in such severe pain." Chade put the kettle on the fire, and it made me sick to see him add the herbs to boil.It's some pixie bark, but not as much as I'd like earlier, and there's also mint and catnip leaves in it, plus a touch of precious ginger root.I recognized that he had also used these to make tea for Verity, to ease his exhaustion.Then he came back and sat down near me. "That shouldn't be the case. The situation you just mentioned can only happen when the members of the Skill Team have blind allegiance to Regal."
