There was a commotion in the palace, and Prince Yulie of Mercardenburg was furious in the palace of His Majesty, who had occupied the magpie's nest. All the items that could be destroyed were smashed to pieces, and when the attendant tried to clean up, he kicked him to the ground.

Although Yurek had long since changed his clothes and bathed, and had burned the clothes he had worn when he was thrown into the pond, and the stench of the pond was no longer visible to him, his appearance was no different from when he had been fished out of the pond, and even after most of the day, his anger had not faded a little.

"Minions!Minions!Minions!Minions!Minions......"

Yureh whipped up his leather whip and whipped the attendant on the back, venting the greatest humiliation of his life, even if he beat the chamberlain to the flesh, he showed no sign of giving up. Suddenly, Yuri noticed that he could not swing the leather whip on his back, and when he looked back, he saw a strong hand holding the leather whip to prevent the prince from continuing his violence.

"Do you still have the face to see me?"

At the sight of the hand's owner, Eule roared hysterically, but his tone, though fierce, did not do anything to the man as violently as a servant.

"Your Highness, please calm your anger. Bazak Menavino half-knelt on the ground and said with a knightly salute, "Wechen knows that he has made a terrible mistake. Thank you for the protection of the God of Light, Your Highness, you are safe and sound. After this matter is over, I will atone for my sins, but before that, Wei Chen has a few questions that must be consulted by His Highness. ”

"Hmph, what's wrong with you?" said Yure's eyes narrowed.

"Wei Chen wants to know some of the circumstances when His Royal Highness was kidnapped by those female gangsters. For example, are there only four of them, or are there more, are there any men to help, does Your Highness see archers between them, do they take you somewhere in the city, what do they say when they talk to each other, and are there anything else that you think is suspicious? Bazak said all the questions he had to ask in one go.

But Yuret was extremely uncooperative: "What do you want me to recall? How am I humiliated, or how are you a 'heroic Savior'?"

"Your Highness, that's not what Wei Chen meant. Wechen just wanted to collect as many useful clues as possible and arrest this gang of gangsters. Because this gang of gangsters was quite familiar with the situation in the imperial capital, it was very likely that they were people who had lived in Alexandria for a long time. ”

"Do you still need to say this? These guys are all killers sent by Jenio's beasts, can they be unfamiliar with the emperor?"

"Not necessarily. There are still many suspicious points in these gangsters, and it is probably a bit arbitrary to think that they are people sent by the Prince of Busubao now. ”

Hearing this, Yule lifted Bazak's collar, and his eyes were filled with anger: "You are in such a hurry to exonerate Genio's beast, you have already betrayed me!"

"No, Your Highness, please don't get me wrong. I'm just talking about things. ”

"Get out!"

The enraged prince of the empire mercilessly blasted out the royal knights who had been loyal to him.

"Your Highness, please listen to Weichen's words......"

Bazak still tried to argue with his case, but the door to the dormitory was closed from the inside. A murderous threat came from the dormitory: "Give you three days to put the heads of these gangsters in a box, or you will put your own heads in them!"

On the way back to his mansion, Bazak fell into deep contemplation.

To be honest, he didn't care about Yulie's last fierce warning, because although Yulie's cruel words were put down, it just proved that Yulie did not dare to mess around, although this prince controlled the imperial capital, he was still afraid of the Bazak and Menavino families who held military power. At this time, what was entangled in the general's mind were the many doubts hidden in what happened during the day today.

The phrase "courageous and unresourceful" has nothing to do with Bazak Menavino. Although his rugged appearance of being fierce and reckless gives the first impression of fierceness and recklessness, Bazak is one of the few wise generals among the royal knights of the Empire, and he is better at thinking than punching and charging without thinking.

As soon as he returned to the imperial capital, Bazak immediately investigated the scene of Yure's abduction, and studied the traces left at the scene, and Bazak roughly calculated the process of Yure's abduction: the enemy set up an earth-based magic array on the path that Yulie must pass through in advance, and when Yulie and his guards passed by, the magic array suddenly erupted under human manipulation, creating a small but powerful quicksand trap, which dragged Yulie and the guards' horses into it and couldn't move. At the same time, the archers who had been ambushed nearby launched a deadly sniper attack, the first to bear the brunt of the captain on duty, who was shot in the throat, his sword only half drawn and fell, and then the other guards were attacked by an invisible enemy, who was unable to move, undoubtedly anvilified by the flesh of the anvil. But the enemy attack was much more than that, as the Shadow Leopard swung its claws at the guard's heart, the Wind Harrier swooped down silently, and the hidden archer used his weapon to name the guards who had slipped through the net. Under this combined attack of the open space and the ground, the 16-man guard was completely wiped out in less than 1 minute, and did not alarm the nearby troops. The captain of the guards was the only survivor of the attack, and the strength of the knight of the throne saved his life, but he also fell into a deep coma.

Such a perfect ambush is not only extremely familiar with the imperial capital Alexandria, but also extremely familiar with Prince Yure's personality and travel habits, and the whole incident is definitely an acquaintance who committed a crime. According to the conditions and motives, the culprit behind it is undoubtedly the brother Genio who was driven out of the imperial capital by Yure, and even Yuri himself thinks so, but Bazak has a different opinion, and one of the most direct reasons is that if these enemies were really sent by the Prince of Busubao, why did they not kill Yuri after they captured him? Obviously, the main purpose of these people was to save their comrades who were being hunted in the city, and the capture of Yure was only a means and not an end.

So if the culprit is not the most suspicious Prince of Fort Primo, then who will it be?

In fact, there was one important person that Yuri and many of the officials in the court overlooked: the missing Imperial Monarch Ipeia II. The empress has always given people the impression that she is a puppet with weak and delicate qualities, no real power, and at the mercy of the three princes, so as the head of state, her sudden disappearance did not cause much of a sensation, in contrast, one prince was assassinated, and the other two princes turned against each other, these things can touch the nerves of the empire even more.

At first, Bazak thought so. He continued to think about it until noon to-day, when he met the four women in the woods. No one knew where the four women came from, but they were quite familiar with the imperial capital and the emperor's **, and the one who particularly caught his attention was the female magician. From beginning to end, the female magician did not say a word, Bazak did not think that she was a mute, so the reason why she did not speak was most likely because she was afraid that her voice would be recognized, it should be said that she was afraid of being recognized by Yure, who was closest to her, so it was inferred that this female magician may be someone Yulie knew by her side. Moreover, although the sorceress wore a wide cloak that concealed her appearance and figure, Bazak still felt a faint elegance in her, which was very similar to the feeling he had felt when he had entered the palace to meet Her Majesty.

Of course, it would be too arbitrary to infer that the sorceress was the missing Ipeia, after all, no one had ever heard of or seen Ipeia use elemental magic, but her records in the royal family between the ages of 8 and 17 were completely blank, and when her father advertised her as the heir to the throne before his father's death, most of the imperial subjects knew that there was such a princess in the royal family. As the son of Eric Menavino, a member of the Scarred Knights of the Emperor's personal guard, Bazac Menavino did not know the empress as shallowly as the others, at least he knew that the years when Ipeia was not recorded were actually sent abroad by her mother to avoid the murderous court struggle, and in the nine years she was away, no one knew what happened to her, where she went, If she had met anyone, it would not be strange if she had learned elemental magic during that time, but as long as she didn't say anything after returning to the empire, no one would know.

However, there is another proof that makes Bazak suspect that the sorceress is Ipeia herself, and that is the arrow on the corpse. In the battle in the woods, four of his crossbowmen were shot in succession in a very short time, and each of them was killed by an arrow, and in the ambush at the scene of the city's captivity, five of the 16 guards were killed by a single arrow, which shows that the archers are by no means ordinary. The shafts of several arrows were made in the same way using the same wood material, and although the parts of the arrows in each corpse were different, the angles and forces of the arrows entering the body were similar, judging by the fact that the arrows were not only made by the same person, but also fired by the same person. The enemy archers were actually only a single one, not a small detachment as he had previously judged.

Then in the three continents of Olopa, there are only two forces with such powerful archers: one is the elves who live in the forest, but the elves have no habit or reason to intervene in the civil war of the human country, so it is another possibility. The general's thoughts drifted to the island nation in the southwest of the empire, which was known as an elven race with bows and arrows. Although the island nation is now mired in a war with its old enemy, and it seems that it has no spare strength to intervene in Rocard's civil war, Baza, who is familiar with the political zhì, is quite clear about the rewards and transactions in the political zhì dealings, and if the other party intervenes in this incident on the condition that the empire sends troops to help them, then it can be justified.

In short, everything was connected in a series that formed a clear vein in Bazak's mind......

In the process of thinking about the problem, Bazak unconsciously returned to the door of the mansion.

In front of the door stood more than two dozen soldiers, lined up in a neat line, each with a hunting dog by his side.

"Report to Your Excellency the General. The search team has been assembled. "One of the officers at the head was one of the four knights of the Guards during the day.

"Good. Let's go!" Bazak smiled confidently.

No matter how logical his inferences may be, inferences are always just inferences. There is only one way to prove whether the inference is true, and that is to find out the female magician. In the woods during the day, Bazak would not have been so honest in handing over the iron-clad chariot to the other party, he had already done his hands and feet in the chariot - it was a kind of aroma that the human nose could not smell, but was sensitive to dogs
