Chapter 616: The game begins to make a choice between life and death
In the underground dark room, the emperor's father and son sat and stood together.
A large mirror on the wall in front of them showed what was going on in the palace:
Behind the crystal wall, the changes in the faces of the important ministers were vivid, and Charles on the other side had just woken up, and he hadn't understood what was going on, and his expression didn't seem to see the other side of the crystal wall, and he was only shocked by Joanna's presence in the room.
"What do you want to do, Odin." The Emperor saw Charles and Victoria lying on the same bed, not showing any different colors, but a hint of gloom flashed in his eyes when he saw Joanna.
Odin's purpose is not to let the ministers witness the scandal of any brother and sister, those ministers are not fools, when they see Charles and them appear there, they will understand that Charles and they are also involuntarily, but because of Charles's appearance, the scope of suspicion of the main messenger of this palace change in the minds of the ministers has narrowed, and Odin is equivalent to not admitting himself.
It was Charles's appearance that made the emperor's heart feel relieved.
I have to say that the cooperation between the Mage Tower and Odin really exceeded the emperor's expectations, not only binding the country to Odin, but also the powerful force is enough to break the emperor's original defense and support Odin to do a lot of things, tonight's palace change is very abrupt, and the emperor is most worried that Odin will directly kill his brothers.
Charles is Odin's biggest threat, the emperor was originally mentally prepared for the worst, and now seeing that Charles is still alive, he can't help but be confused by Odin's intentions.
Odin did not immediately answer the Emperor's words, his gaze fell on Victoria, who was still asleep in the mirror, his gaze was subtle and complex, as if with surprise and a certain weirdness.
Of course, the emperor noticed Odin's strangeness, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his gaze fell into the mirror. After a closer look, he quickly found the red thread between Victoria and Joanna, and his eyes flashed with astonishment, and his body was slightly shocked.
"Looks like you've found out, my father," Odin smiled slightly, "magic is magical. It can make many buried truths undeniable in front of people. ”
The blood-colored red thread between Victoria and Joanna has revealed the blood relationship between the two.
There seemed to be a boom in the emperor's head, "Victoria! Victoria and Charles ...... They, they! ”
The aged king stared at Odin with disbelief in his eyes, and his mind resounded from his previous conversation with Master Ulysses:
【“…… In this way, if nothing else, the bloodline of the seed in Joanna's womb is likely to come from Charles. ”
"Yes. Perhaps an investigation into the personal relations of His Royal Highness Charles in recent months can lead to some clues. ”】
And when he talked to Ulysses, he didn't expect that the final answer after the investigation would be that he would face such an unbearable truth as a parent, and he would be caught off guard at such a time!
"Charles now. I'm afraid I don't know that Victoria's womb has given birth to his blood, otherwise. You'll be ecstatic! Odin looked at the situation in the mirror for a long time, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"It's not you! Are you ......" The Emperor woke up suddenly, and pointed at Odin with a thin trembling.
"Hmm...... My father, you are underestimating me! ”
Odin pretended to be puzzled, and then laughed coldly and lightly, "You think the seed in Joanna's womb was moved in by me from Victoria's womb?" In order to prove the blood relationship between the bone and blood in Victoria's abdomen? ”
The middle finger of his left index finger pressed his temple, and Odin's whispered voice shook his head and chuckled with a strange excitement and sarcasm.
The Emperor then came to his senses. Odin had already planned to launch a palace rebellion tonight, and in order to expose the incompatibility between Victoria and Charles, there was no need to borrow Joanna to complete it. This will only give him time to deal with this indecent affair after it alarms him.
"Although I don't know who pulled Joanna into this drama, but I want to thank him for his actions, otherwise simply revealing the infidelity between my dear brothers and sisters would have a lot less twists and turns than the current plot.
A lot of things flashed through the emperor's mind, and he wanted to doubt the truth of this truth, telling himself that it was made up by Odin, but his mind suddenly flashed the figure of Count Jefa, and the palace that was now basically in Odin's hands.
"Alvin, Alvin is your man, this damned traitor! …… It's you! It was you who connived at Charles and Victoria! ”
"It's me! It was I who instructed Alvin to cover up the relationship between Charles and Victoria, to cover up your eyes and ears in the palace, and to create an opportunity for their relationship to develop! ”
Odin admitted, "However, Count Jefa is not a traitor, he is just good at protecting himself, otherwise he will tell you this ugly thing, will you let him live?" And with his wisdom, when he finds that your male lion is dying and showing old age, then it is only natural to choose a young and strong allegiance again! ”
From the beginning of escaping into the underground passage of the palace, the emperor had guessed that Count Jefa had betrayed him, he was surprised by this, but he was not too shocked, he had not eaten any food from the outside world for so many days, just to guard against possible betrayers around him.
But he was far from expecting that Count Jefa's betrayal would bring him such a big blow!
At this time, the emperor suddenly realized that his life would irreversibly lead to death, and when the vitality showed signs of passing in him, it brought a king not only aging, but also the shaking of authority, which was born in the hearts of the people, and was difficult to detect, and even his authority for many years could not be suppressed and uprooted!
"What an interesting truth, what an ugly truth! You see, my dear father, when the truth reveals its true and ugly face before you, the truth is far more terrible than what I concealed from you in the first place
And the heirs of your own sister**, the disloyal courtiers, the stupid and vacillating nobles, the ambitious and powerful - you connived at them to kill the three noble Merlin royal bloodlines, this is the truth! ”
Odin opened his hand, and nothing brought him more pleasure than stripping off his father's proudest new garment, days and nights in the Winter Palace being eaten by hatred and unwillingness. At this moment, it is all back to the emperor, how strong the humiliation, anger, unwillingness, and pain that the emperor brought him when he gave up on him, how strong the emperor felt at this time.
How wonderful!
When the truth of Yiqiē is revealed, the king who thought he was in control of Yiqiē only to find that everyone is hiding and betraying: not limited to Odin, not limited to Charles, not limited to Victoria. Not limited to Count Jefa and his ministers......
Under such a truth, how ridiculous it seems that the emperor has shaken his mind about the succession position because of Odin's deception!
What's even more ridiculous and ridiculous is that for such a ridiculous and ridiculous thing, the emperor acquiesced to the death of his three grandchildren, and watched his brothers fight in the same room, which contributed to the father-son killing and the palace change-
The Emperor stared at Odin like a poisonous serpent, anger and murder flashing in his eyes. Shame and pain were mixed in his eyes, and the truth in front of him made the emperor see his dereliction of duty and unbearability as a father, and his blindness and conceit and stupidity as an emperor:
He hated Odin, hated his deception and betrayal, hated him for persecuting his father who had raised him for many years so decisively, and hated Odin for forcing him, a ruthless killer. But at the same time, he is also very aware of the fact that when he thinks that this qiē is to blame for his disappointment and betrayal of Odin. In Odin's eyes, it was also his father who made him lose a son and two daughters, forced him to a desperate situation, and let their father and son meet each other!
The emperor was so painful that he wanted Odin to disappear into this world immediately, but he was also ashamed that he could no longer appear in front of Odin as his father!
"You made this qiē happen, my father."
&
nbsp; Odin said softly.
His eyes hidden in the darkness saw the embarrassment, pain and complexity revealed on the emperor's face, and the happiness in his heart was followed by endless coldness and emptiness, he didn't want to know whether the emperor was regretful or hateful in his heart, a qiē warmth, at the moment he left the Winter Palace. It has been completely erased.
"The game has just begun."
Only the Emperor's rapid breathing remained in the dark room, Odin continued.
Hearing his voice, the emperor quickly raised his head. With a face as if he had aged ten years, he quickly looked at Odin, and then noticed the change in the mirror.
I didn't see what Odin did, the crystal wall in the mirror suddenly moved away slowly, and Barnett and other important ministers who could have seen Charles's side of the palace in one direction were exposed, and the two sides looked at each other in amazement, and Joanna's screams echoed in the empty room.
The mirror split in two, and another almost identical chamber appeared in the other half of the mirror, except that the room was empty, except for Douglas, who lay quietly on the bed, unconscious.
"The two rooms are sealed, separated by only one wall, and before I sent Charles and Douglas into the room, they took the 'Promethe's Elixir' at the same time - you know, this elixir has different antidotes depending on the ingredients, and I accidentally forgot the antidote prescription, leaving only a finished product that can cure a person's poison,"
Odin paused and smiled:
"In the realm of the Azure Spear, he can stop anyone from killing at any time, but I'm afraid he can't do anything about the onset of the poison I've already taken - of course, you may also try to kill me, maybe the fear of dying will make me think of the antidote in time-
Then the choice is yours, which son to let die, please make a choice within half an hour of the poison. ”
(To be continued)
ps:
This is revenge, revenge, what forced the palace to win or lose, compared to completely destroying Emperor Miè's conceited confidence, it is still far worse - by the way, do you see the plot twist?
Speaking of which,Although it's been a long time since I've set this plot.,But because there were too many ideas before.,And there are a lot of plot characters interspersed.,I'm still not satisfied with the handling of this plot.,The details are a little bit deliberate.,It's very unnatural.,It took a lot of effort to deal with this plot before.,But I feel like there's still a lot of problems in logic.,And the description is also relatively messy.,I'm worried that everyone can't understand it.,But I'm afraid that you think there's a lot of nonsense.,So it's difficult to write -- to put it bluntly, it's complicated when designing the plot., If you embarrass yourself, you won't die if you don't die...... t_t
But take a few days off, it doesn't seem to be so stuck, these two chapters are written smoothly~
