Chapter 690: The Black Hand That Surfaced

These intelligence officers looked at Charlemagne solemnly and said, "According to all the information we have gathered, every clue points to Count Creed!" ”

"In other words, the person who planned all this is Your Royal Highness's own uncle, Count Creed, and the soldiers who blocked the road to the outside world in Fort Cerrien were also sent by Count Creed!"

Charlemagne listened to the reports of several intelligence officers, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, he never dreamed that it was this uncle who wanted to put himself to death.

Although he was not particularly close when he met the other party before, he was also his own relative, but he did such a thing to himself.

Charlemagne, who suddenly received the news, was silent for a moment, and then asked, "Does my father know about this?" ”

An intelligence officer said: "Your Majesty, he doesn't know for the time being, but the person who reported the news has already set out on a fast horse, and I believe it will be delivered to Your Majesty within a month!" ”

Charlemagne sighed and said, "I know, you guys go down, don't publicize this matter, keep it as secret as possible!" ”

After a few people gave a chest salute, they left Charlemagne's study, and Charlemagne asked Roland and the others to come in.

"What's going on?" Roland, as usual, sent out an inquiry to Charlemagne.

Charlemagne smiled bitterly, and then said, "I know who is behind it!" ”

His smile looked extremely bitter in the dim light, and Roland hurriedly asked, "Who is it?" ”

"Count Creed, my father's brother, my uncle!" Charlemagne said in a depressed mood, although when he read those classics, he would always see relatives who were fighting each other for power, but when this kind of thing happened to him, he still seemed a little caught off guard and a little sad.

"What?" Hearing Charlemagne's words, several people immediately let out an exclamation.

"Damn, isn't he afraid of His Majesty's revenge?"

"I'm going to kill him!" Cdrrick's temper was the hottest, and he shouted impulsively.

"Don't make a noise!" Roland was the oldest and most stable of the men, and he quickly calmed down and said, "Count Creed may have done this because of the inheritance!" ”

He looked at the shocked Homan and Crerick, continued to look at Charlemagne and said, "When His Majesty did not recognize Archduke Wallace, Archduke Wallace only had one heir, Earl Creed. ”

"And when Archduke Wallace and His Majesty recognized, his inheritance was also threatened, the Grand Duchy of Kśrı is different from the Kingdom of Lorik and the surrounding areas, the inheritance system here is to set an heir, not like where we have an eldest son to inherit!"

"Your Majesty and Archduke Wallace recognized each other, and also obtained a part of the inheritance of the Grand Duchy of Kraxla, although His Majesty has never shown interest in the Grand Duchy of Kraxla, but Archduke Wallace has given an earl to Your Highness, which can easily arouse his scruples!"

"After all, after your Royal Highness, you got the Cerrienburg, it is easy to think that Archduke Wallace's attitude towards the heir has changed, which is equivalent to a signal that the heir of the Grand Duchy of Kerla has changed from the original only one to the current two!"

"Even if His Majesty has no interest in the Grand Duchy of Krisla, you can still be a rival of Count Creed, and he will only make such a move after he is jealous of you!"

His detailed explanation made everyone understand the reason for the matter, and Charlemagne actually had a guess in his heart after learning that the mastermind behind the scenes was Count Creed, and after Roland said this, his heart was also completely determined.

However, he did not show cowardice or other emotions because of this, he said with a blank face: "I don't care about the inheritance of the Grand Duchy of Kraxa, but if my grandfather really wants to pass on the Grand Duchy to me, I will not give up what I deserve, I will not do anything to my uncle for the time being, everything will have to wait for my father's opinion to come back." ”

The other three also nodded when they heard this, they were all children of the nouveau riche family of the Lorick Kingdom, and they had not experienced this kind of family conflict for power, so they also didn't know what to do.

At this time, the messenger of the messenger galloped on a fast horse, and after a month's fast horse, he had reached the territory of Denlenburg.

The well-paved stone road made him even faster, and at the current speed he could enter Denlenburg this afternoon.

Soon, a figure riding a fast horse entered the castle confines of Denlenburg, and the outer city, which was not protected by the city walls, was full of merchants and residents, and it seemed to be extremely prosperous, and the bustling crowd seemed slightly congested, making it impossible for him to continue urging the horse forward.

Before, the sound of horses' hooves had long been in the ears of the patrol.

The patrols were royal infantry, usually a group of people wearing heavy armor and rallying in front of the messenger.

The courier immediately halted the horses, dismounted from them, explained their identity, and showed the letter and his identification to the patrol.

After identifying him, the patrol took the man into the inner city.

After passing through the levels, he finally entered the majestic and huge palace, which occupied half of the expanded inner city.

After more than an hour of tossing and turning, he finally arrived at the door of William's study.

William's brow furrowed after reading the letter, and he didn't react until he sent the messenger out.

"Fuck!" William scolded angrily: "I don't provoke you, but you start to provoke me!" ”

Saying that, William's eyes gradually became cold, he has many means to be in a high position all the year round, and Count Creed has made him very dissatisfied with the other party by treating his son like this.

He has done his duty not to hold the Count of Creed accountable on behalf of his predecessor, but his brother still does not know how to repent and intends to do what happened to William to Charlemagne again, which he cannot tolerate.

However, although he was very angry, he had no intention of making any drastic moves.

He wrote a reply, in which he wrote: "Dear Charlemagne, my son, I have received a report from the intelligence officer, I know what happened, and I am very angry at what Count Creed did, but for the sake of your grandfather, I do not intend to make a big deal about it! ”

"It turns out that I don't have any thoughts about the Grand Duchy of Kraxa, but since your uncle treats you like this, then you can simply compete with him, I hope you can become the future master of the Grand Duchy of Kraxa, and let your uncle lose the position he thinks about day and night!"

"I believe you can do this, as my son, the crown prince of the kingdom of Lorik, the future master of the kingdom of Lorik, you must do this!"
