Chapter 042: Grazing on the head

Hearing Liu Xuanmiao's question, He Ge spoke, "I found a letter from the old duke to the current duke in the drawer of the duke's study, which said that the old duchess gave birth to twin daughters at the age of thirty-five, and these two children were the later duke and the duke's sister. ”

"The old duke is very happy that his wife gave birth to a pair of twins for himself at an advanced age, and at first he did not suspect that the two daughters might not be his own, after all, according to the situation of their husband and wife, it is very normal to give birth to a daughter with blonde hair and a daughter with black hair."

Seeing He Ge say this, Liu Xuanmiao said a little impatiently, "Then what caused the old duke to start suspecting that the twin daughters might not be his own?" ”

Hearing Liu Xuanmiao's question, He Ge continued, "The reason why the old duke began to suspect that the twin daughters were not his own was because he broke the adultery between the old duchess and his younger brother, although the old duchess vigorously claimed that the two twin daughters were all the old duke's, but the old duke still didn't fully believe it, and suspected that once the seed was planted, it would take root and sprout, and in the end, the old duke couldn't bear this torture, and secretly called the private doctor in the family. Two newborn daughters and two teenage sons were tested. ”

Seeing that He Ge said that he would not say anything here, Liu Xuanmiao said a little anxiously, "Don't sell Guanzi, tell me quickly, how about the bloodline identification results?" ”

Hearing Liu Xuanmiao say this, He Ge said unhurriedly, "The bloodline identification results greatly exceeded the old duke's expectations, except for the daughter who was born with black hair and was born not long ago, the other three are not his own, and the most interesting thing is that the old duke's two teenage sons are not his younger brother's, that is to say, at present, the old duchess's four children may have more than three fathers." ”

He Ge's words surprised Liu Xuanmiao, and after a while, she said, "This old duke is too miserable, the green hat has been worn for so long to know, if it hadn't broken the old duchess's adultery with other people, maybe he wouldn't have known that he could graze on his head until he died." ”

Speaking of this, Liu Xuanmiao paused for a moment before continuing, "Wait, the sudden death of the old duke's two cheap sons shouldn't be the old duke's hands!" ”

Hearing Liu Xuanmiao's question, He Ge nodded, "It is indeed his hands and feet, in order to maintain the reputation of the family, it is impossible for the old duke to make this matter public, after all, once it is made public, their entire family will be ridiculed by the outside world, but he doesn't want the child born of the old duchess's adultery to inherit his title, so he secretly tried to kill those two sons." ”

"He killed those two sons, so why didn't he kill the girl with blonde hair who was just born, and instead locked her up?"

Seeing Liu Xuanmiao's question, He Ge said, "Because of the bitter pleading of the girl's father, that is, the old duke's younger brother, he finally exchanged the girl's right to give birth on the condition of leaving the country. ”

Hearing He Ge say this, Liu Xuanmiao also suddenly realized, "So that's the case, although the girl was allowed to survive, she will never be able to show up in front of others, is that so?" ”

Seeing Liu Xuanmiao ask, He Ge nodded.

"If that's the case, that is to say, there is the duke's twin sister locked up in the secret room of the study, then she is now gone, is it possible that she is a fake duke?"

Hearing Liu Xuanmiao say this, He Ge thought for a moment before he spoke, "At present, there is a fifty percent possibility. ”

Seeing He Ge say this, Liu Xuanmiao was a little puzzled, "Why do you say that there is a fifty percent possibility?" ”

Hearing Liu Xuanmiao's question, He Ge spoke, "Because there is no evidence to prove that the fake duke is the girl who was locked in the secret room." ”

He Ge's words made Liu Xuanmiao fall into deep thought, and after a while, she said a little impatiently, "Isn't that hair proof either?" ”

Seeing Liu Xuanmiao ask, He Ge said calmly, "Yes, that's why I just said that it was a fifty percent possibility." ”

He Ge's words made Liu Xuanmiao a little stupid, and after a while, she spoke, "Suppose that this fake duke is the girl who was locked up in the secret room, how do you say she managed to kill the real duke and replace him?" ”

Hearing Liu Xuanmiao's question, He Ge thought for a moment before speaking, "If this is the case, it means that she must have helpers, and she would not have been able to do all this without helpers." ”

He Ge's words made Liu Xuanmiao fall into deep thought, "Helper, what kind of helper will she have for an orphan girl who is locked in a secret room?" I thought about whether it was her biological father. ”

Seeing Liu Xuanmiao looking at herself with a look of waiting for praise, He Ge said, "Guess again." ”

Hearing He Ge say this, Liu Xuanmiao was a little gloomy, "I guessed wrong!" That wasn't her real father, who would help her? ”

Seeing Liu Xuanmiao say this, He Ge spoke, "It's not that you guessed the wrong person to help her, but let you guess who her father will be in the castle?" ”

Hearing He Ge say this, Liu Xuanmiao also suddenly realized, "You wait a while!" Let me think about it. ”

Just when Liu Xuanmiao was racking her brains and wondering who this person would choose to help her, she heard a knock on the door.

Seeing this, before Liu Xuanmiao could speak, He Ge on the side said, "Who?" ”

As soon as He Ge said this, the servant outside the door immediately said, "Hello, guest, I have come to inform you that lunch is ready, please go to the restaurant to eat." ”

Hearing the servant outside the door say this, Hego spoke, "Got it. ”

After the others left, He Ge opened his mouth and said, "Haven't you guessed yet?" ”

Hearing He Ge ask, Liu Xuanmiao shook her head, "No." ”

"Think about it, among the men in this castle, who is the oldest and has the most power."

was reminded by He Ge like this, Liu Xuanmiao immediately knew who he was referring to, "You mean Andre?" ”

Hearing Liu Xuanmiao ask, He Ge didn't say yes or no.

Seeing this, Liu Xuanmiao asked a little puzzled, "How could it be Andre, if he is really the younger brother of the old duke, then those old servants in the castle will definitely recognize him!" ”

Hearing Liu Xuanmiao say this, He Ge said unhurriedly, "If he knows magic, then he will naturally make others unrecognizable." ”
