Chapter Seventy-Three: The Plan
The current queen is none other than Dinie Anstrasser, the eldest daughter of the Anstrasser family.
In fact, this queen was not the first wife of Aures, long before her, Aures had a queen and gave birth to two children, but twelve years ago, the first queen died unexpectedly, and the Anstrasse family came to the throne.
"What does this have to do with the Queen?" What did she say?" the Queen was not allowed to interfere in political affairs, and the Night's Watch should not let her know about it.
"Didn't he have a younger brother who was in the royal guards? He said that he had heard from his younger brother that a few incompetent, but close associates had been promoted. Ålles did not seem to care about the queen's statement, and seemed a little careless.
Kelm knew that Ålles was talking about Elmer, who had replaced him as interim commander.
In fact, the queen just said that she thought it was strange, and by the way, she wanted her brother to be promoted. But the key is the information that the night watchmen get. ”
"You allowed them to investigate the Guards of the Royal City?" Kelm asked suddenly. The Night's Watch would need permission to investigate the King's direct authorities, and the Royal Guards were directly under the King's control.
"Yes, someone made an application and I agreed. Aures glanced at his old friend.
Kelm frowned, seemingly unhappy with the friend they had grown up with. "And then you found out all this stuff? Who do you believe?"
Aura seemed to want to defend himself, and after being silent for a while, he said: "Kelm, the two of us grew up together, practiced martial arts together, and fought together. In terms of friendship, you are my best friend, but I sit in the king's seat, and there are some things that must be done. I'm sure you won't do anything, but since the Night's Watch thinks an investigation is needed, I'm naturally going to agree to it, but who do I believe when the results of the investigation come out? I'm here now, what do you think?"
Aures used a rhetorical question, which he tossed to the only man he called a friend.
Kelm was also silent, he knew very well how deep the relationship between the two was, so it was indeed a difference to say that he would betray Aureth. "If you believe me, why should I be removed from my position, if there is a conspiracy in this matter, it is a fatal situation for me to be unable to control the Guards of the Royal City now. ”
"That's why I'm here. "Åles seems to be confident. "The Frog family itself is not weak, so there is no problem for the time being to lose the position of commander, what kind of waves can this little guy Elmer make? What I need to know is who is behind the trouble. ”
"Do you suspect there's a trick behind it?" said Kelm easily caught up with Aures' pace.
"That's for sure, otherwise you wrote these letters?" Åres smiled and looked at Kelm.
Kelm shook his head, "Impossible, so how are you going to investigate?"
"I don't know if someone is taking advantage of the Night's Watch function, or if the Night's Watch has a problem on its own, I heard that your second son is back?" Aura suddenly changed the subject, turning to Rohr.
Åles had not met Rohr a few times, the last time they saw him was when he was a child, and in fact, in the past ten years, Åles has rarely left the palace.
"Yes, Rohr has just come home and found a magic potion that restored Nelicot's legs. Kelm seemed to think that he had become the son of a magician, and that his daughter had recovered her health, and a smile appeared on her face.
Aureth also knew about Nelicot's situation, and he apologized: "I didn't expect it to be that big, I'm really sorry." ”
In the face of the Dawn King's apology, Kelm accepted it without embarrassment. "It's good to recover now, why did you mention Rohr?"
As if having thought of what to say, Ålles continued, "I heard that he is already an official magician, so I would like to entrust him with an investigation. ”
The matter of Rohr becoming a first-class magician had been conveyed to the family before, so Ålles already knew about it.
When everyone was suspicious of the Frog family, Åles even asked the people of the Frog family to investigate, which is enough to show his trust in the "Kingdom Shield" family.
"He's still young, is he good at this kind of thing?" but Kelm was skeptical, there was no talent for espionage investigations, and this kind of thing was tempered by experience.
Aures seems to have planned everything, "In addition to Rohr, I will also arrange for other trusted people to investigate, this incident is also a bit of a coincidence, plus the movement in the Snowwind Kingdom, I don't have much energy to care about this matter." ”
Speaking of Snow Wind, Kelm asked, "Why didn't you arrange for your troops to defend the Snow Wind Border, what if they were just feints to attack Mayona?"
"No, they are going to attack Mayona, there's no doubt about that. "As a king, it seems that he knows a little more than others. "But the exact reason for this is unclear, and it has something to do with the prime minister named Adams, who seems to be planning something. ”
"And there is one more thing you don't know, at the junction of the Golden Lion Kingdom and my country, there is a plague disease, which is very similar to that of the Mayona Kingdom, but it cannot be cured for the time being, obviously these viruses have mutated again. ”
"What, there's a plague in the Dawn Territory?" said Kelm, who knew about the situation at this time, and said in surprise.
The Kingdom of Dawn is no match for Mayona, the population and density are much higher than the other party, and once the plague spreads, the speed will increase exponentially.
King Aureth's expression was extremely serious, and he said very solemnly: "So I don't have much energy to take care of this matter for the time being, removing you from your post is actually allowing you to investigate at will, with the strength of your family, the possibility of completing the task is very high, I will also inform other families and let them cooperate with you." ”
Only then did Kelm realize that Ålles was indeed busy now, in addition to trusting him.
The spread of the plague will cause a significant decline in the strength of the country, and even serious to the point of destroying the country. The point is, the Queen of Life is facing the attack of the Snowwind Kingdom at this time, does she still have time to optimize her healing magic to cure the plague?
"There is also a plague in the Golden Lion Kingdom, which means that this disease will affect the two big countries now, if there is no cure in the country, then I have to turn to Queen Mayona, a legendary magician of the life department, again. And if the Snowwind Kingdom starts attacking, it will most likely involve our two countries as well. Ålles looked solemn, as if he had anticipated the future scene.
"And the 'saint' Iyes, who can temporarily stop the spread of the plague, is a legend of the Holy Kingdom, and if the plague expands to the Holy Kingdom, he will definitely return to China, and then Mayona will lose an external force, and we will lose a protector against the plague. ”
"So, the situation is really troublesome, and you can only rely on yourself about the investigation. ”
