Chapter 624: Temptation
After listening to the narration of the ancient city, the audience fell silent.
The blood of the Gu family was taken for study, and this person was still Arthur. And Arthur had already been killed by Meng Fan, and he also snatched the sword in the stone.
Any of these three things is a big deal, and these three things are mixed together.
"Head of the house, what are you going to do?" An elder asked.
Gu Gu said: "We must destroy all the research materials of the Gu family in the other party's hands. As for Arthur, he was killed by Meng Fan. Meng Fan must be saved, and the war with the Arthur family cannot be avoided. ā
Evelyn frowned: "The Arthur family is not a small family, they have a very good relationship with the queen, can we win?" If we really want to occupy the moral high ground, we can't let Meng Fan be on our side. ā
Meng Fan killed Arthur, if the Gu family stood on Meng Fan's camp, it would be equivalent to the Gu family killing Arthur. This is a big deal for the entire British aristocracy. In this way, it is easy to push the ancient family to the opposite side of the whole of England.
"Arthur is doing it behind our back, shouldn't he die?" Gu Gu said coldly, "The next thing for us is very simple, use the pill to unite more families. Maybe Arthur took the opportunity to study other families as well, so that we could get more help. ā
There was a meeting going on here, and on the other side, Louis woke up and was horribly calm. She also convened an emergency meeting of the family, and Mayer stayed.
Meng Fan didn't know about these, but he probably guessed some developments.
This time, Britain is completely messed up. Since Arthur can study the bloodline of the ancient family, he can also study the bloodline of other families. This matter is poked out, and it is really difficult to say what the mentality of other families is, and no one wants to be studied.
The next day, not long after dawn, Louis personally came to the castle of the Gu family.
The ancient city did not come out, according to the seniority, the ancient city is a generation higher than Louis, so naturally there is no need to come out. However, it was Evelyn who was in charge of greeting her.
"Aunt Evelyn, I haven't seen you for so long, and you're still so young, I envy you." Louis smiled and said, "Is there a secret?" ā
Speaking of which, Louis was more than twenty years younger than Evelyn, and she was obviously polite when she said that.
"Look at what you said, eat well and sleep well every day, then everything will be fine." Evelyn said with a smile. It seems that the other party's words are still very useful.
She couldn't figure out what Louis was here for, she knew Arthur was dead. But she didn't know if the other party knew. It would be terrible if Louis knew that Arthur had been killed, but still be so calm.
"I'm coming to you today to tell you about Arthur and Gruin." Louis smiled and said, "You said they were both so old that it was time to get married." ā
Evelyn's face changed, and then she immediately smiled bitterly: "I can't say for sure, you also know that our ancient family is very particular about the so-called auspicious days of the zodiac, and we still need to ask the ancient city about this matter." ā
She sneered in her heart, not to mention that Arthur is dead, even if he is not dead, the marriage between these two people will not be possible. Arthur secretly studied the bloodline of the Gu family and made pills, which has touched the bottom line of the Gu family. Although Evelyn doesn't like Meng Fan, it doesn't mean that she won't think about the Gu family.
"Okay, okay, then I'll talk to Gu Rui first, I haven't seen her for a long time." Louis laughs and says they had only met a few months ago.
"Gu Rui is inside, you go and look for her." Evelyn said with a smile.
After Louis entered, he didn't see Gu Rui, but Meng Fan. Meng Fan was holding the sword in the stone, looking left and right, looking up and down. After researching, he still didn't find out why.
When Louis saw Meng Fan, his whole face changed greatly, Arthur's head didn't know who sent it, but Mayer said that Meng Fan killed Arthur. Now it seems that the evidence is conclusive, otherwise the sword in the stone would not be in Meng Fan's hands.
What makes Louis see that her sense of the sword in the stone has disappeared. Normally, at such a close distance, she would definitely be able to sense the storage of the sword in the stone, but now she didn't.
What's even more incredible is that Meng Fan was touching the sword in the stone, but he was not injured.
"Hello, may I ask who you are?" Louis's sociability was amazing, and she quickly regained her normal skills.
"Hello, my name is Meng Fan." Meng Fan said with a smile.
Louis smiled and said, "Hello, my name is Louis, and I am from the Arthur family. Arthur's sister. ā
Meng Fan was stunned for a moment, and shouted in his heart that it was not good, the other party must have known his identity, otherwise the other party would not have introduced himself, and specially added 'Arthur's sister'.
No, Meng Fan thought about it, maybe the other party didn't know that Arthur had been killed by himself, otherwise he would be so calm? But when the other party saw the sword in the stone, there was nothing unusual.
No, no, no, no. Meng Fan was a little confused, perhaps because of the fact that he was facing the enemy, which made him feel so confused, he didn't come up with a reason for a while.
"Hello Mrs. Louis." Meng Fan smiled.
Louis feigned wonder and asked, "What kind of sword are you?" ā
Meng Fan had a plan: "I don't know, I'm researching it." I found it in a forest where a fire broke out while attending a pirate festival. When I found it, there was blood. ā
Louis was a little confused at this time, Meng Fan's expression was too real! Can the sister who meets the enemy be so calm? Or did Arthur's death actually have nothing to do with Meng Fan? After all, she had only seen Arthur's head, and she didn't know who had sent it.
She checked, Meng Fan did have a grudge against Arthur, and Arthur also sent someone to kill Meng Fan, but it didn't work. But it seems a bit inappropriate to put the charge of murder on Meng Fan's head just by virtue of this.
She couldn't help but wonder, did someone deliberately kill Arthur and then frame Meng Fan? And this sword in the stone is the so-called evidence.
Louis grew up in aristocratic circles and naturally knew a lot of conspiracy theories, so she was even more suspicious of the sinister intentions of the man who sent Arthur's head.
Every time she encounters something, she likes to analyze the entanglement of interests in it.
"It's a bit like our sword in the stone." Louis said intentionally or unintentionally.
Meng Fan was stunned for a moment, and took the initiative to hand over the sword in the stone: "Oh? Then look at it, if it's really your home, I'm willing to give it back to you. There is a saying in my country that it is not good to find gold, and I was planning to go on TV to find the owner. However, I thought this sword was also very ordinary, and at first I thought it was an ordinary sword. ā
Louis touched his sword, his whole hand trembling. She was shocked in her heart, in the past, when she held the sword in the stone, she would not be resisted at all, but now the sword in the stone was obviously resisting. Something must have happened here.
"Hehe, maybe I confessed my mistake." Louis smiled and said, "I'd better go to Gurui, I have something to tell her." ā
Meng Fan didn't doubt him, and directly pointed to Gu Rui's room: "She's in it." ā
After Louis walked in, Evelyn walked over and quietly beckoned to Meng Fan to come over.
Meng Fan followed, and Evelyn took Meng Fan to a small room: "What did Louis talk to you about?" ā
Meng Fan told Louis about it.
"It's weird, Arthur was killed by you yesterday, and she came here today, what the hell does it mean?" Evelyn didn't quite understand.
"I don't know. If she really knew that Arthur was killed by me, then her cousin was too powerful. Meng Fan said, "But since she pretended not to know, I also pretended not to know." ā
Evelyn nodded, then said, "Don't think that because of this, I agree that you and Gurui are together. To be honest, I'm not very happy with you. ā
Meng Fan smiled and said, "Madam, you misunderstood, we are just friends." ā
There are not many women in Lao Tzu, and I don't care if I don't have your daughter.
Gruis was combing her hair in the room, and Louis walked in directly, startling Gruin.
"Mrs. Louis, why are you here?" Gu Rui looked a little flustered.
"Let me ask you a question, who killed my brother?" Louis asked directly, "Is it Meng Fan?" ā
Gu Rui's face changed drastically, and he said, "I don't know very well. ā
She guessed that Meng Fan probably killed him, because Arthur and Meng Fan walked into the woods together at that time. Later, Meng Fan came back and brought back the sword in the stone. She and Stuart were assassinated by the Knight of the Round Table, and she escaped the assassination by virtue of her own strength.
So for Arthur, there is no guilt in her heart. When she knew that Arthur had been studying the Gu family, she even had some resentment. She felt that her marriage to Arthur was actually a conspiracy of the other party. This conspiracy was perhaps known to Louis, and it is more likely that he was a direct participant in it.
"I'm here this time mainly to ask your opinion, you and Arthur are not young, when will they officially get married?" Louis hid it well, smiling even when her heart was bleeding.
Gu Rui was a little flustered: "I still have to ask my father about this, their older generation likes auspicious days of the zodiac." ā
Louis patted Gurui on the shoulder and said, "Okay, then I won't bother." Actually, I like you very much, and it would be great if you could be a member of our Arthur family. ā
Gu Rui nodded awkwardly: "I'll ask him then." ā
Louis said, "Okay, I'm going back too." Don't give it away. ā
"You're good ......"
Before Gu Rui finished speaking, he only felt that his whole body was weak, his eyes were dark, and he fell to the bed.
"Hmph...... Even if my brother dies, you will go down to be with him. Louis smiled grimly, "But before I do, I'm going to use you to find the real killer of my brother." ā
Louis can become the ruler of the Arthur family, naturally it is not simple, she is also a member of the research institute, and she is also a senior researcher. Her poisoning skills are very high, and by the time you find out, she has already been poisoned.
She patted Gu Rui on the shoulder just now, and she was poisoning. Gu Rui naturally didn't expect this.
Meng Fan returned to the room and found Gu Rui lying on the bed, and Louis was nowhere to be found. A note was left on the table: I want to save people, hand over Arthur's murderer.
"I'm cĒo!" Meng Fan scolded.
