Chapter 627 Chapter 586 Centrifugal

Obviously, the first day of the 966th year of the empire did not seem to be a happy day. Like Mrs. Liszt, there was the one in the palace who fell into distress and heaviness. After the banquet ended, Prince Chen did not go back to sleep.But out of habit, he went back to his study and locked himself in it alone. "Do you think I pressed Charlie too hard?" Prince Chen looked at himself in the mirror, his face was pale, after removing the majesty of the king and his polite smile, what was in the mirror at this moment was just a sick and weak man. However, he was not asking himself this question.

"Your Highness, you are overthinking." In the corner, a court magician in a red robe gradually revealed his figure. The voice was old, even with a hint of decay. "Actually, since last year's Qingfeng Festival, I have been shaken." The real ruler of the empire looked at himself in the mirror, and his tone was bitter: "Although at that time, everyone thought that Charlie was the king of the royal family. It’s a big face... Hmph, it can make the people of the church lose face in public, and it can also make His Majesty the Pope apologize to us in public. This has not happened in a long time... Hehe! But, this child He is too grand! It is a pity that he has won such a big face for the royal family. Instead of blaming him, I have to praise him... just because I am a father! I can't let the child be discouraged, I Don't dampen his enterprising spirit. Not rewarding him for meritorious deeds will stimulate his youthful and rebellious mind.

So, for a long time, I have been suppressing him. After he was crowned, I still locked him in the palace, did not let him touch any government affairs, and did not give him even a little thing to do. Without giving him a chance to practice, even the court teacher in charge of teaching him was not allowed to tell him even a single thing about the state affairs of the empire! A few days ago, his court teacher gave me a suggestion, asking if I could tell Charlie to do some simple things, which can be regarded as some experience for him, but I refuted them and only allowed him to study history...

I just want to press him, press him, force him, let him learn to be patient! !It can smooth out the too sharp edges and corners and the too sharp thorns on his body one by one, making them smooth! " Prince Chen stretched out a hand, and gently supported the corner of the table beside him, he seemed to smile: "You said, am I a very failed father? Actually, I know... Charlie has recently, Gradually, some dissatisfaction with me developed. Hehe, my good son, my good son! My good son who is only twelve years old!" This "good son", just a few words, contains so many complex flavors, I am afraid that only Prince Chen himself can appreciate it.

The red-robed figure in the corner seemed a little surprised: "Your Highness, aren't you worried about the assassination of Duke Tulip tonight? Compared to Prince Charlie's thoughts, I think the assassination of Du Wei tonight is more important. " The bitterness on Prince Chen's face gradually faded, and he smiled softly: "This matter... I'm not worried. When I just found out tonight, I was still a little angry. Huh, I didn't do this, you should be very clear ...However, in my palace, someone actually did such a thing under my nose, which shocked me a bit!"

The red-robed man's tone was a little cold: "Your Highness, what do you mean...cleaning?" cleaning! When these two words were spoken, there seemed to be an indescribable chill! Prince Chen frowned and thought about it, but shook his head: "There's no need to make a big move, I have some clues in my heart. But, this matter... what I'm worried about is another one..." He turned around and looked at the red corner of the clothes hiding in the shadows in the corner: "Tell me, will Du Wei know about my body..." After he finished speaking, he paused, and then shook his head: "This is what I'm most worried about. If he knows, then with the assassination incident, I'm afraid I will remind him!"

"Remind him of what?" "Remind him, I have a motive to kill him." Prince Chen seemed to smile, with an unfathomable smile: "It stands to reason that if I am really dying, I should really kill Du Wei as soon as possible." Just because, I understand, if I suddenly die of illness, if there is a powerful minister like Du Wei in the empire, my son will never be able to control him-once Du Wei understands this, then it is the two of us who are separated The time has come!" The red shadow in the corner was silent for a while, but suddenly spoke in a strange tone.

"Your Highness, after Du Wei was assassinated tonight, I carefully inspected the side hall, the assassin's body, the weapons used, and the torn robe that Du Wei replaced." The man in the red robe was always standing in the shadows, his voice was hoarse like a night owl: "The weapon used by the assassin is a dagger, made of fine steel, with a highly poisonous drug smeared on it, which is extracted from a magical plant called 'swallowtail grass' that grows in the frozen forest. Although this kind of swallowtail grass grows in the north, its poison is dry and hot. And it is the favorite food of monsters like the 'ghost-faced spider'. Although swallowtail grass is rare in the market, it is not difficult to buy. This poison, Once the skin is broken into the flesh, the toxicity is so strong, I am afraid that even a powerful magician will not be able to escape death if he does not have the right medicine with him!"

After hearing this, Prince Chen frowned and said, "What do you want to say?" "Du Wei's clothes." The red-robed man whispered: "The clothes he changed, the chest part is already torn, the assassin is obviously a high-ranking warrior with fighting spirit, a full-strength stab of a high-ranking warrior, the fighting spirit attached to the dagger , the aftermath could tear the clothes on his chest, so, under such a powerful force, even if we all know that Duke Tulip himself has a very strong martial arts cultivation—this can be seen from the fact that he was able to compete in the arena that day. It can be seen by killing an eighth-level holy knight. But even if he has a strong martial arts cultivation base, even if he has a strong fighting spirit protection. But since the dagger can tear his clothes, it has obviously penetrated him. His battle qi is gone—or, Duke Tulip, at the time of his assassination, he didn’t have any vindictive body protection at all..."

"what do you mean……" "My meaning is very simple, Your Highness... Du Wei, he is not dead." The voice of the shadow in the red robe was a bit strange: "In that case, Du Wei could not use his fighting spirit to block the dagger from the outside, and second, he was paralyzed Even if he used to have powerful martial arts, but after being paralyzed, he could not keep the assassin away. Third, he is a magician. At close distance, it is also a dead end. Based on these three points, I have carefully calculated it many times. In that case, Du Wei will definitely be stabbed by a dagger! He was indeed stabbed. You can tell by his tattered clothes. But..."

The voice of the red-robed shadow finally became a little surprised: "However, he was stabbed by a dagger that was smeared with extremely poisonous and hopeless poison, but he didn't die! Unless this Duke Tulip had predicted that he would be assassinated, and the assassin The poison used was swallowtail grass, and he had prepared a special antidote for swallowtail grass on his body... But this is obviously absolutely impossible. Then... My question is, why is Du Wei not dead, and it seems that there is nothing wrong with him. Unless he……" "Unless what?" "Unless he's not sick, it's just pretending, his strength is not the slightest damage. Or the other possibility is... Duke Tulip's strength has far exceeded the normal range we can expect... He, Is it a strong man above the holy rank? Or, stronger!" Prince Chen frowned, as if thinking deeply for a moment... "Don't think about this problem." Prince Chen waved his hand and glanced at the red shadow in the corner: "You don't have to think about how to deal with Du Wei for the time being. Because... I don't want to be an enemy to him. Anyway, after the coup Today, in the situation on the table, I am sure to lose, but at that time, he stood by my side with the determination to die, just because of this old relationship... I can't bear it!" The red shadow in the corner said flatly: "I understand that Your Highness is a person who cares about old feelings. I am just a loyal chess player under your command. I just want to remind you...your physical condition. You just admitted it yourself, this kind of Under the circumstances, you should think carefully about how to treat this powerful minister of the empire! Cutting power, I'm afraid... it may not be too late." After finishing speaking, the man bent down to Prince Chen in the corner: "I know this is very harsh, but please consider it carefully, Your Highness. You...you can't leave an unmanageable mess for His Majesty Charlie. Whether you are a father or the master of the empire, you must leave a good family business for future generations." After a pause, the man continued: "I know, from the perspective of Duke Tulip's usual behavior, he is by no means a traitor and disloyal person. But, Your Highness, you have also said that you can't just pin your hopes on major events in the world. People's hearts. Because 'people's hearts' are the most fickle! Once you... are gone, and Duke Tulip's heart suddenly changes, what should we do at that time?" Prince Chen sat down silently... After a long time, he sighed: "I'm tired, you go." Looking at the empty study room, Prince Chen leaned on the chair, and said softly to himself: "People's hearts are unreliable...you always have to take things into your own hands..." ... In the early morning, Mrs. Liszt was at home and angrily threw an expensive crystal teacup on the ground. With a ding, the crystal cup turned into countless fragments. This noble and beautiful lady has a furious face, and her eyes are full of anger and worry. In front of her, on the table, was a letter that had just been hurriedly delivered by a servant. There are only a few words on a piece of white paper, which seems to be in a hurry. "Sister, I'm sorry, I don't want to marry!" And just after Mrs. Liszt was furious, she quickly sent several teams of family guard knights to search around... At the same time, just outside the north gate of the imperial capital, a slender figure was riding a white horse, wrapped in a long leather robe. gone." After finishing speaking, he kicked the horse's belly, and the horse's hooves flew away, far away. ... The Liszt family was overwhelmed because of Miss Muse's departure, and the news had not yet reached Du Wei's home. And Du Wei didn't fall asleep that night. Just before dawn, he called the elder guard, Yan, and told him a few things. "The first thing, you go back to the northwest immediately and tell Mr. Philip that from now on, all military orders of the family army must come from the Duke's Mansion, and other orders can be disobeyed! Our territory and the border of Nulin Province , send more patrols, and if the imperial army approaches, we are not allowed to enter our territory... If it is a last resort, I allow them to use all force to resist! I authorize him to use the secret reserves in Giliad City when necessary!!" "Second thing, you tell Ruolin to order her to discharge her current military position immediately, and immediately go south to take charge of the family's sea fleet... No matter what, I don't care if she invites her by force or softly. In the meantime, I want her to go to the Luolin Plain and be responsible for taking my mother out of the sea and sending her to Nanyang!" "The third thing, this is my gold badge. You send it to the northwest, give it to Uncle Alpha, and tell him about the things on the grassland... don't be too quiet recently, make some movement for me Come!" "The fourth thing..." When Du Wei said this, his tone was extremely serious: "Tell Rodriguez, the Decepticon Sky Knights, all of them will be dispatched on the day your order is delivered, and I will give them three One day! No one should be disturbed, no news should be revealed, and all gathered in the other courtyard behind Brokeback Mountain! Let Rodriguez lead the team himself, and if outsiders dare to spy on their whereabouts...no matter which side they are...directly Kill!" Saying these few orders one by one, Lao Yan's face suddenly became serious, and he took a deep look at the Duke: "My lord..." "I know what you're thinking." Du Wei smiled faintly: "I'm not trying to plot against you, I'm just taking precautions." As he spoke, he looked at the sky outside, stretched his waist, and his tone gradually became a little erratic and weird. "In this world, the most unreliable thing is the human heart! One's own destiny must always be in one's own hands to be at ease. You can't rely entirely on the benevolence of others." ... On the first day of the 966th year of the empire, everything on the streets of the imperial capital still seemed to be as cold as winter. But under this severe cold calm, this underground vortex has become more and more driven. No matter who the person who assassinated Du Wei was, although the assassination failed, this matter finally cut a light knife on the intimate and harmonious relationship between Du Wei and Prince Chen, leaving a faint crack . When Du Wei suddenly woke up and realized the relationship between the two parties, it seemed that he could only hope for Prince Chen's lifespan... At this time, if you can't bear it, you have to bear it!Think about it even if you don't want to! If you don't do it, you must do it! Just because, the most unreliable thing in this world is the human heart! ... On the first day of the 966th year of the empire, there was no official announcement, and everything happened quietly. And the two most powerful young men in the empire, the two talents of the sky, the two monarchs who were once intimately trusted, comrades-in-arms, allies... Centrifuged!
