This is a very remote, very unnoticeable small building, the small building has two floors, only a room on the second floor is still lit, apparently the fake "second prince" is there. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In the hall on the first floor, Leon was politely but resolutely stopped by the two guards: "Young master, is there something wrong?" ”

Leon nodded, and took out a token from his waist that he had quietly stolen from his father's study not long ago: "I want to meet the man up there." ”

Even though Leon's identity was well known, the two guards still checked the token in Leon's hand very carefully, and then got out of the way.

Leon silently walked up the stairs to the second floor, his boots stepping on the wooden staircase, and let out a low echo, these echoes were like a crisp drum beating in his heart, like the rumbling war drums on the battlefield, quietly arousing the murderous aura in his heart.

As the head of the next generation of the Ice Bear family, Leon knows many things that ordinary people don't know, such as the stand-in in the room on the second floor.

In fact, when the second prince was just an adult, this stand-in had been quietly selected by Prime Minister Paul and joined the Ice and Snow Giant Bear Mansion.

For ten years, this stand-in has been living in this small building, and the only thing he does every day is to imitate, imitate the second prince's voice, smile, words and deeds.

Leon remembers very well that at that time, it was when his father had just lost power and the power was gradually transferred to Edgar, and at that time, Prime Minister Paul had already laid such a foreshadowing, and it was buried for ten years, which has to be said to be an amazing conspiracy.

After learning of the existence of the stand-in, Leon once asked Prime Minister Paul: "Father, did you already know that the second prince would die?" If he survives and ascends the throne, wouldn't this double be a super hidden danger to us that could implicate our entire family at any time? ”

Prime Minister Paul replied with an unfathomable smile: "Son, Julian's death was an accident, but accidents can always be man-made, can they? ”

Leon finally understood.

Prime Minister Paul has been unrelenting in his support for Julian, and not just for the sake of a comeback.

After experiencing the ups and downs in the political arena, Prime Minister Paul's ambition has actually completely exceeded the scope of a courtier's reach, and he even wants to completely empty the emperor, in the name of the prime minister, the power of the emperor!

To accomplish this, Prime Minister Paul could kill anyone, including Julian.

Once Julian gets in the way of Prime Minister Paul, Leon has no doubt that his father can create an "accident" in one night and make the real Julian disappear, and then the double will replace Julian and sit on the throne of the emperor without realizing it.

If the love for the eldest princess was the cause of the betrayal, then this conspiracy played a decisive role in Leon's betrayal.

A person who even the emperor dares to kill, what else can't be killed?

Leon had a gut feeling that Paul's perverted desire for power would probably lead to the entire Ice Bear family burying him!

So Leon must take advantage of this time to kill this stand-in, now that the second prince is dead, once this stand-in is also dead, then Prime Minister Paul's plan will be in vain, and there is no possibility of getting into power again!

The room where the stand-in was staying was right in front of him, and Leon clenched the blade in his hand and gently pushed the door open.

The scene in front of him was completely unexpected by Leon.

The second prince's stand-in sat on a chair in the middle of the room with his eyes closed, motionless, with a very frightened expression on his face.

Leon was startled, and before he took a few steps to grab the chair, he reached out to sniff and found that the stand-in had just fainted.

This relieved Leon a little, but immediately felt a little regretful.

Judging from his appearance alone, this stand-in is completely the same as the second prince, just like a twin brother.

Not only that, judging from Leon's contact with the other party in the past two days, his level of imitation of Julian can also be said to be vivid, and he can almost confuse the real with the fake.

But such an innocent person will die in his own hands.

It's just a pity that Leon still raised the blade in his hand without hesitation and stabbed it heavily into the chest of the stand-in.

The body of the stand-in shuddered violently, and then there was no movement, and blood quietly spilled from the heart, staining the clothes red, as well as Leon's blade and the hand holding it.

Leon breathed a sigh of relief, the stand-in was dead, and all the plots planned by Prime Minister Paul would not be carried out, and they would be forced to end before they could begin.

But the joy of success had barely risen from Leon's heart when a voice suddenly sounded from behind him.

"You look happy."

Startled, Leon immediately withdrew his blade and turned to face the speaker.

When he saw the other party's face clearly, Leon was even more surprised in his heart, and he involuntarily took two steps back, and even his voice trembled a little: "Are you a human or a ghost?" ”

Appearing in front of Leon was the second prince Julian.

Leon subconsciously glanced at the chair, where the body of the stand-in was still sitting, and blood was still pouring from his heart.

"There's no need to put on such a hellish expression," the "second prince" in front of Leon smiled: "This body is indeed Julian's, and I'm not a ghost." ”

Leon suddenly found that he seemed to have fallen into some trap, and his voice suddenly became a little hoarse: "You-you-never died?" ”

"Me?" Julian smiled slightly and said, "It's true that I've never died, but the second prince Julian you know is indeed too dead to die." ”

Leon's face sank, and his right hand clenched the blade in his hand again: "It's just nonsense!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Leon rushed towards Julian without hesitation, the blade in his hand shining coldly, without the slightest mercilessness.

Regardless of whether this is the real second prince or the fake Julian, as long as they are all killed, won't everything be over?

But although Leon's idea was good, the implementation did not go as smoothly as expected.

He was about to stab the other party, but in the end, he found that he had stabbed only a phantom.

A finger struck a joint on Leon's back spine steadily: "Fixed." ”

A burst of magic crept into Leon's body, and Leon was horrified to find that he had suddenly lost control of his body.

"Julian" appeared in front of Leon again, with a smile on his face that Leon couldn't understand at all.

"Speaking of which, I would like to thank you, if it were not for your guidance, I really did not know that dear Prime Minister Paul would have quietly left such a backhand. Well, let's continue this story that is destined to be full of sorrow and death. ”

As soon as the words fell, Leon's right hand suddenly moved uncontrollably, and the cold and shining blade in his hand swept Leon's own neck.

Leon's eyes widened, and his face was full of disbelief, but at this moment he could no longer say anything, but could only fall down heavily, and died of exhaustion.

"Julian", or rather Cleverley, sighed softly, looking at everything in front of him with great satisfaction.

"Let me think about it, the prime minister's son-in-law betrayed his father Prime Minister Paul because he loved the eldest princess, and killed Prime Minister Paul's stand-in with his own hands on the eve of the decisive battle, and then committed suicide because the matter was revealed, is there a more perfect plot than this? I'm just going to have to take one last step—"

"Help!" A frightened voice suddenly came from the room.

After only three seconds, four guards rushed into the room on the second floor from four different directions.

Appearing in front of the four guards were two bodies, one stabbed in the heart, one by suicide, and nothing else.
