Chapter 52: Resoluteness

After receiving the summons of Madame Treville, although he did not know the content of the note, because it was the summons of the mistress, and he instinctively felt that the matter was important, Kong Ze quickly put down everything he was doing and rushed directly to the place where Madame Trevill was.

Because Charles had taken into account various circumstances, he had deliberately arranged a diplomatic status for him with the help of his power, so he did not delay much, he rushed to the vicinity of Windsor Castle, and after being strictly inspected by the guards, as a chamberlain of Lady Treville, he was finally allowed to come to Windsor Castle.

Because Her Majesty was holding a party here, he met an endless stream of high-class people along the way, and looking at these gentlemen and ladies who lived leisurely, Kong Ze did a good job of hiding the envy and jealousy of them in his heart to the deepest part of his heart.

He's not far from those people.

After great efforts, he has become an important subordinate of the Tréville family, and indirectly realizes his dream of getting ahead - as long as the Tréville family reaches the top, then as their pawn, he will surely become a person with great power, even if he is unknown in public.

Led by the maid, he made his way to Madame Treville's quarters, where he waited for her reception in the reception room.

It didn't take long for the door to open, and Madame Tréville walked in briskly.

Because she hadn't gotten a good night's sleep in the last few days, her face looked a little pale and haggard, and her dizziness was a little heavy, which also added some dark clouds to the bright charm of the original young woman.

As soon as I met Charlotte. Kong Ze immediately straightened up, then bent down exaggeratedly and saluted her. He showed the same kind of deference as a queen. He knew that the Duchess and Ladies had always liked to eat it.

"You're finally here. Sir, I'm going to keep you waiting. Charlotte just nodded at him, and then made a gesture of incomprehension.

"Madam, please take care of yourself." Kong Ze tried to add a little enthusiasm to the cold tone he was accustomed to.

It looked like she had something on her mind—Kong Ze came to a conclusion after the first glance.

Strange, she already has the youngest and most promising husband in France, the glory and wealth that others can't match, and even just had a child, what else is in her heart at such a moment when she has already obtained everything that the world wants, and it is worth worrying so much?

Never mind. There's no point in delving into this, women are strange creatures in the first place. She'd have told me anyway, and that's why she called me here. Kong Ze thought to himself.

He knew in his heart that in the eyes of this always arrogant lady, he was more of a useful tool than a living person.

"I'll take care of my spirit, don't worry." Charlotte replied politely but indifferently to Kong Ze, and then directly stated her purpose, "I summoned you here today. There is an important matter to be entrusted to you. ”

In front of this person who does not have a title, Charlotte doesn't even want to be polite on the surface, let alone in this mood.

"Please give me an account, I will be happy to complete all your orders." Although there are some not-so-good premonitions in my heart. But Kong Ze still replied stubbornly.

"I need you to make sure that a person dies, and that he dies as unobtrusive as possible."

Boy!

Kong Ze only felt a shock all over his body.

"You...... Tell me to kill? "Because this request is really a bit bizarre, even a calm person like Kong Ze. I couldn't help but lose my mind for a while.

As a member of the Tréville family, it's not surprising that she has enemies and people she wants to kill. But it would be a bit bizarre to need her to personally order the killing in secret.

Her husband is powerful, if there is a sworn enemy. Wouldn't her husband just get rid of it himself, why did she need to do it herself?

"Not to kill, but to ensure his death." Charlotte calmly pointed out the difference, "Someone is killing him, you just need to observe, or help, and only as a last resort, you need to do it yourself." ”

"You...... Could you please give us a more detailed explanation? Kong Ze's breathing was slightly rapid. Whose death do you hope to facilitate? What the hell is going on? And also...... Why didn't you tell me? ”

"That's exactly what I need you to do, not only to make sure that person is dead, but also that no one knows about his death, especially my husband, and that nothing is said about it." Although Charlotte was calm on the surface, a tremor in her tone still betrayed the uneasiness in her heart, "That is, he must disappear from the world silently, leaving no trace." ”

Kill and kill at every turn, do these ladies really understand what killing is all about? How can it be so simple to make a person disappear from the world silently?

"......" Kong Ze felt a little dry in his throat, he wanted to reason with the other party, but he didn't know how to speak.

"You've given me a task that confuses me, and you've made an unattainable request to me!" In the end, Kong Ze could only protest to the mistress with difficulty, "Please think about it, this is not in France, and there are many things that we can't do easily. At least tell me who you want to die! ”

"You've seen that person, or if it weren't for you, he'd have died a long time ago, and we've been spared so much trouble." Charlotte looked at Kong Ze coldly, as if he really needed to take some responsibility for it. "I guess you know who I'm talking about, right?"

After only a few seconds of trance, Kong Ze came to a conclusion in his heart, and then the whole person was a little chilled because of the cold.

"Do you mean Mr. Edgar de Treville?" With a kind of hope of what if, he asked cautiously.

"yes, I'm talking about him." To Kong Ze's disappointment, Charlotte directly admitted, "After that person fled France." did not hide to the ends of the earth to make everyone comfortable, but ran to the United Kingdom...... Continue to make everyone nervous. In that case, we have no choice but to submit to God's will. Let everything be fair. Isn't it all wonderful? ”

The memories that had not cooled down before were turned over in my heart again, and after carefully recalling everything that happened at that time, coupled with Madame Treville's words just now, Kong Ze finally understood what Madame meant.

"What do you mean......" Kong Ze looked at Charlotte cautiously for fear of missing any of her instructions, "you want him to die quietly in those ...... In the hands of those who pursue? If those pursuers don't succeed, I'll do it for you. ”

"You are indeed a very intelligent person, no wonder my husband relies on you so much." Charlotte, who has always been very serious. Finally, he smiled a little and answered the other party's guess indirectly.

Just a few hours after meeting her cousin, Charlotte came to the conclusion that he had to die.

He threatened himself with Charles' future, and since he dared to threaten the first, it was inevitable that there would be a second and a third, or at least he would. Charlotte, on the other hand, did not want to risk her husband's future, not even his father.

In the future, his whereabouts may be difficult to control.

So, don't take advantage of the opportunity to kill him now. It will only be more troublesome in the future.

So, he had to die - that was Charlotte's final conclusion based on her own logic.

Edgar de Treville would never have imagined that his once lovely and clever cousin would become so determined after all these years.

"Can I sum it up like that...... You, granddaughter of the Duke of Treville. Mr. Charles de Treville's wife, intending to order me...... Order me to find a way to get rid of your cousin, your husband's father? In a delicate tone. Kong Ze asked a question again. "And to avoid letting the gentleman know?"

Cases of murder of children and elders for the sake of inheritance among those wealthy families. He had already seen a lot, and even many such cases had been solved by him personally. When he heard Charlotte's request, he didn't have much of a shock psychologically.

The real vibration comes from something else.

Cooperate with others to kill the employer's father, and if necessary, kill him with his own hands.

No matter how you look at it, this is not a normal task.

If you put the background in the Tréville family, then the abnormality will increase several times.

Just last year, he had already met the Edgar de Treville, and it could even be said that he was the one who saved the middle-aged man's life in the pursuit.

At the time, however, he felt that his employer was not happy to learn of the news, and Miss Tréville's subsequent performance confirmed his thoughts.

Both siblings hated their father, and they drove him away as they wished, and their father did not seem to refuse to continue his life in exile for nearly 20 years, so they should have no inheritance disputes.

Since it is not a dispute over wealth, then in other words, Edgar has a secret, a secret that will make his son and daughter-in-law want him to disappear immediately.

If I had known this secret, I would have been sent to hell without hesitation by them—would they have dared to kill even my father, would they still have estimated a little me? It only took less than a few seconds for Kong Ze to come to a conclusion in his mind that made him shudder.

He didn't want to know what the secret was.

Even if it's just for the sake of his own life, he doesn't want to know.

Moreover, he simply did not have the guts to do so behind Charles's back, because he was not sure if his employer really wanted his father to die.

Under the orders of Mrs. Treville, she accidentally became Mr. Treville's father-killing enemy, is there anything more wrongful in the world?

"Please forgive me, ma'am. If you really want this to happen, then I must report it to my husband, and let him decide," in order to interrupt Charlotte's rhapsody, Kong Ze did not care about the superficial etiquette, "if he agrees, I will find a way to achieve his will." ”

Charlotte's face slowly sank, staring at Kong Ze.

She hadn't tasted rejection since she was a child, so this anger made Kong Ze shudder even more.

"My will is also the will of the Tréville family. I think you should know that. Sir, you are in the service of the Tréville family. Therefore, no matter how much trouble you have, you must find a way to fulfill my will! Mr. I repeat, I'm ordering you! ”

"Let me refuse...... I need to report. A cold sweat broke out behind Kong Ze's back, but he reluctantly refused.

"No, I'm sorry, but you don't have the right to say no anymore...... Do you think you'll be able to get out of our family now? Charlotte sneered and looked at Kong Ze, who was a little overwhelmed, "You only have one way to do what I want and accept the reward, how to get through is your own business!" My husband and I can tolerate the enemy, but we will never tolerate betrayal - so. Don't think that there is anyone else in the world who can protect you, even if you abandon everything you have gained, you will not run to the ends of the earth. ”

Charlotte's words were resolute and merciless, and she didn't care about Kong Ze's feelings at all. It seems that in this way, I vented the anger I have recently accumulated.

"That man threatens us, so he must die, even if he has the surname Trevill—no, it is because of the surname Trevier that this betrayal is especially intolerable. Absolutely unforgivable! ”

"But...... But...... At least let the gentleman know first......"

"No, we'll do it." Charlotte rejected Kong Ze's request, "This kind of thing, Charles shouldn't know." Otherwise, what good can it be except to add to the troubles? Could he have any other view in the face of such a situation? I'll just make that decision on my own. There's no need to do anything else. ”

What kind of threat is it, so that you don't even need to pay attention to the relationship between father and son. Do you have to die for him? A trace of curiosity suddenly flashed in Kong Ze's heart, but he soon took the initiative to snuff it out.

"You mean. Mr. Edgar de Tréville is now a serious threat, and even if he was present, he would have come to the same conclusion as you, and you just didn't want him to bear that psychological guilt, so you decided to hide it from him? "Kong Ze finally figured out the essentials." Can you confirm this? ”

"Yes, I'm sure." Charlotte replied firmly, "Thanks to the kindness of the two old men, I am now one of the heads of the Trevill family, and I have the right to punish the black sheep in the family as they deserve." For the sake of my husband, I did it. He hated his father and was threatened by his father, but even so he didn't want to bear the sin of killing his father...... It doesn't matter, it's normal, a lot of people can't take this step, and I can't do it. But...... Edgar de Treville is his father, not mine, and to me he's just a hateful villain, a sinner who pops out of nowhere, and threatens us, so you have to make sure he dies quietly and quietly without Charles knowing, and doesn't get in anyone's way anymore. ”

"Isn't it a sin to be unaware? Did you order me to let him die, so that Mr. Tréville would not be held accountable for it? Kong Ze looked at Charlotte in amazement, as if he couldn't understand what she was thinking.

"That's what it was for me." Charlotte gave an answer with a sneer.

Kong Ze frowned, he still didn't quite understand the logic of these nobles. However, he understood that everything the other party said was not allowed to be rejected by him.

Yes, by now, he has only to obey all orders, and he can't get out of knowing too many secrets, even if there is a cliff in front of him, he has to close his eyes and move forward.

I still have value for use...... So they certainly won't leave me alone, at least not with tools like me.

Thinking of this, Kong Ze finally calmed down a little.

"If you ask for that, I can only remain silent," Kong Ze bowed again, "but, as a condition, I need you to write a document for me when the time comes, proving that I am carrying out your will. ”

For a moment, Kong Ze suddenly felt that Charlotte's eyes swept towards him like looking at a vexatious child.

yes, who would be so stupid as to leave such a handle for themselves?

"You can rest assured...... I will not ask you for any self-confession, nor do I need you to write it in great detail, but you only need to write a copy by hand at that time, and the words can be so obscure that they cannot be used as evidence in court, and it doesn't matter if no one can read it, as long as the gentleman can read it—I only need a proof, a certificate that is only valid for him, to prove that I am not commissioned by you to do these things. I can't just be my enemy, and once he learns the truth by some means, I need a proof to prove it, please understand me, ma'am. ”

Charlotte still didn't answer.

The two men looked at each other like this, and this time Kong Ze no longer had the humility that appeared on the surface, but calmly looked at Madame Tremier.

Obviously, if he couldn't get this kind of certificate, Kong Zening would not have done such a thing.

"Well, as you wish, I can give you such a credential then." After hesitating for a long time, Charlotte nodded slightly, "However, I will only give it after everything has been done properly." You have to make sure that he dies quietly, without a trace, without causing any trouble, without leaving a word - as if he had never existed, completely disappearing from this world. As for the method, it's up to you to think about it. ”

It was a very vague order, and she only asked her father-in-law to die quietly in the shadows, without caring who and by what means she was accomplishing it.

"All I can say is that I will do my best to fulfill your will." Kong Ze bowed down again. (To be continued......)
