Section 53
"How's the Duke of Chester?" asked Duke Nick.
Count Ron subconsciously stood up, he shook his head, "It's not clear for the time being, several bishops and bachelors of the academy are rescuing." ”
"I need to know what the whole thing is going on. Duke Nick mused, and the agent of the guard who had followed Gus El had already taken out a piece of parchment and a pen to prepare the record.
Count Ron nodded cooperatively, and then began to tell the story of what had just happened...
In less than five minutes, he finished his narrative, and finally he concluded: "The paladins and mages on the other side have to be very strong and decisive, and my instincts tell me that this is a powerful organization of their own faith. ”
"The huge magic array, and at the same time to empty the entire area of the residents, oh, the residents that Frank went to are not so easy to talk to, such a big action is not something that ordinary people or ordinary unions can do, this case is more tricky than imagined. Sir Gus El frowned.
"Sir, two days, you only have two days, and within two days you must investigate the ins and outs of this case!" Duke Nick said solemnly, "I will ask the officials of the Prime Minister's Office to assist you throughout the process." ”
The Prime Minister's words made Gus Al frown, but after thinking about it, he didn't refute it, but readily agreed.
"Crunch" Suddenly, a slight sound of the door opening sounded, and the door of the rescue room was gently opened, and then a bishop in a white robe walked out, he wiped the sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand, and looked at Duke Nick and the others.
"Bishop Andrew, how is the Duke of Chester?" Duke Nick asked before the other could speak, and the man walked over quickly.
"It's not optimistic, we tried our best, but our Holy Power is really..."Bishop Andrew looked at the Prime Minister with obvious shame on his face, thought for a moment and said: "If Sir Pedy is here, it may be possible to save the Duke of Chester, after all, he understands the Holy Power better than any of us." ”
"Pedi?" Duke Nick was stunned, "My son Pedi?"
"Yes!" Bishop Andrew nodded affirmatively, "If he is here, it can increase the chances of success by thirty percent." ”
"Where is he?" asked Duke Eric, who he was asking.
"On the way to the Koren Fortress, the latest appointment of the military department, the Koren Fortress is the commander of the command, the emperor's direct order. Duke Nick smiled bitterly, he didn't know that his son had grown up to be so powerful.
"When are you going to move?" asked Duke Eric, "how long can Duke Chester hold out?" ”
"Number Five!"
"An hour at most!"
Duke Nick and Bishop Andrew replied at about the same time.
"I'm going to arrange for the magician to prepare for the teleportation. Duke Eric nodded, he looked at Duke Nick who wanted to speak, and preemptively said, "You have a lot of things to do now, the most important thing is just in case..."
Speaking of this, he glanced at Earl Ron, and then whispered in Duke Nick's ear: "Cullen has gathered two legions of hoplites in advance, their original purpose was to support Anku Fortress, but if Duke Chester has an accident in the imperial capital, do you think it is possible for this force to change direction?"
With that, Duke Eric glanced at the emergency room where Duke Chester was, and hurried away under Duke Nick's surprised gaze.
And Duke Nick also reacted quickly, he also glanced at the Duke of Chester's rescue room, and then asked Earl Ron, "Who else knows about the assassination of Duke Chester?
Count Ron was stunned and glanced at the empty hallway, "His servant and a magician's retinue are still here, they were still here. ”
Duke Nick's eyes flashed when he heard this, and then he stared at Gus El with a fierce gaze, "Let your people block the news, and if the news of the Duke of Chester's assassination spreads tomorrow morning, your chief of security will stop being the chief of security." After a pause, the Imperial Prime Minister looked at the dissatisfaction in Gus El's eyes, and added coldly: "Don't doubt my determination!"
...
Two o'clock in the evening, Lion Castle, in the bedroom of Emperor Laubert.
After more than an hour of tossing, and at the same time, with the help of Bailly, the governor of Lion Castle, Duke Nick finally met the emperor who had long been asleep, and the angry Emperor Laubert suddenly dissipated his anger and hazy sleepiness after listening to the prime minister's report.
After violently driving away the two women lying on the bed, Laubert put on two clothes and asked, "When did it happen, has the news been blocked?"
"An hour and a half ago, I handed over the news to Sir Gus El, and if there is any discussion of this matter tomorrow morning, it will only mean that the Chief of the Security you fancy is not capable. Duke Nick replied.
Hearing this, Laubert glanced at his prime minister and walked to the sectional sofa on the other side of the bedroom to lie down, looking up at the ceiling that seemed extremely dark at night, his mind was a little confused now,
"Thirteen years ago, I shouldn't have come to fight for this throne. "In just six years, I didn't think that my profligacy would make the empire what it is. ”
"If I had withdrawn from the struggle for the throne from the beginning, maybe there wouldn't have been so many conflicts, maybe the civil war in the empire wouldn't have broken out thirteen years ago, and we, presumably, would have lived an ordinary and leisurely life with our wives, children, and even little grandchildren in our respective territories now." ”
"I warned you at the beginning that the Emperor doesn't just sit on the Golden Throne, and that position is more troublesome than you think. Duke Nick sat down across from the Emperor and glanced at the empty bedroom.
Laubert smiled wryly, "It seems that I am really not suitable for land exchange, maybe Cousin Barrett is more suitable for this position." ”
"Your Majesty, this is not something you should say... Again, let's get to the point. Duke Nick frowned, took a deep breath, and then looked at the emperor who was thinking with a serious face, and asked, "What I want to know is, you really don't know about this matter?"
"What do you mean?" Emperor Laubert raised his head suddenly, his eyes widened, he looked at Duke Nick with incredulous eyes, spat out a mouthful of wine, and then roared: "Do you suspect that I sent someone to kill the Duke of Chester, oh, the goddess, do you take me for a fool? I will kill him in the imperial capital? If I want to kill him, I won't wait until now, I had a chance thirteen years ago, and it is a fair opportunity!"
After a pause, Laubert's eyes flashed with murderous intent and said, "Although I would love to kill him myself, I know very well what to do is the right thing to do. ”
