Late at night, Anthony, who was full of alcohol, rushed to Santos's small building in the garden as soon as he got home.

After listening to Anthony recount what happened at tonight's banquet, Santos pondered for a long time.

Then Santos said to Anthony, who was anxious: "What you said tonight is very good, and it has planted the seeds in people's hearts that someone will sow discord. ”

"Juan didn't attack you on the spot, which means that he doesn't want to kill you, and what he wants to do next is to put you under house arrest or exile. ”

"As long as you're alive, then there's hope for everything. ”

"As long as Sophia is gone, you are the only choice for the throne. ”

Then the butler's voice sounded outside the house, and he said, "Sir, the Praetorian Guards have surrounded us, and they have brought a letter from His Majesty the King. ”

Antony's face suddenly turned pale, and cold sweat broke out, although his teacher said that Juan would not kill him, but what if the king sent a letter to him to cut himself?

If they had cut themselves, the Praetorian Guards outside would have rushed here after receiving the news of their own self-cut.

If you don't cut yourself, then someone will definitely help you.

As for the family...... Anthony couldn't think about it anymore.

At this time, Santos said to Anthony: "You go and see what the letter says, don't freak yourself out." ”

"You also know that Juan is not a ruthless person. ”

Anthony came to his senses at this point, and he went outside to get Juan's letter back.

After reading the letter, he said to Santos with a wry smile: "Teacher, Juan asked me to cross the forest to scout in the Rurik Kingdom. ”

If you enter the forest alone, you will be half-dead if you don't die.

Santos asked, "When will it go?"

Anthony replied, "Ten days later." ”

Santos breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's okay, as long as Sophia is gone within ten days." ”

Anthony's face changed again, and he said, "Teacher, if something happens to Sophia at this time, everyone will think that I did it." ”

Santos shook his head and said, "Don't worry, that Charles begged Sophia for pleasure and killed her in anger after Sophia refused, who would suspect you of this kind of thing?"

Anthony opened his mouth and was speechless for a moment.

Santos sighed and said, "Alas, I'll help you personally this time." ”

"Teacher!" Anthony looked at Santos in surprise, he hadn't seen his teacher make a move.

Santos got up from the recliner, moved his muscles, and said, "Even you think I'm an old man who can only lie down all day and is dying, who else will suspect me?"

While Anthony was planning how to turn the tables, Charles was telling Juan about the ** incident in the palace.

After an accident in the village that night, Charles naturally had to find someone to help.

Because this matter involved a possible ghost in Charles's family back then, and the ** fog was heavy, so Queen Victoria made a decisive move.

Hasselblad, the dragon who provided services to Victoria from the Blue Dragon Consortium, quietly arrived at the village that night and got in touch with Charles.

After Charles rode away with Sophia, Anthony's contact with the bandits followed Charles far behind.

However, the praying mantis caught the dragon and that night Hasselblad caught Anthony's men outside the cave where Charles was staying, and threatened him to send back the news of the success of the operation by eating him in his dragon form.

No one could be able to stay calm in the middle of nowhere, under the dragon's big, toothy mouth, let alone the dragon still muttering about whether to dip it in vinegar or mustard.

When Sophia woke up at noon the next day, Hasselblad flew back to the city of Matrice with the two of them.

In Greentown, the envoys hastily formed by the elven officials who had been shouted out of the bed were sent to the city of Martris by Olympus before dawn.

While Samuel was visiting Anthony, Juan also learned the general story of what had happened from Macaire.

After listening to Charles's story, Juan sat there and pondered for a long time, and finally sighed helplessly.

He asked Charles, "Charles, did you say I did something wrong?"

Charles shrugged his shoulders and asked, "So what do you think is the right thing to do?"

Juan was stunned for a moment, how could he say that he was also a king, and no one had ever spoken to him like this.

Charles went on to say, "You are the king, so everything about you is right and everything else is wrong. ”

Juan was noncommittal to Charles's words, and he continued: "I have a request, I don't know if you can grant it. ”

Charles smiled and said, "As long as you don't let me be your son-in-law, everything is easy to say." ”

Juan looked at Charles dumbfounded, and was stunned for a long time before saying, "I have never seen such a brazen person, where did you get the courage to think that I would marry Sophia to you?"

Charles breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good, I'm scared." You don't know, the portraits of the ladies I received on my birthday last year were two carriages. ”

Juan nodded and said, "I know about this, and I also know that you later sent those portraits to families that have single young people of school-age at home. ”

Charles laughed but said nothing, Diana, who had visited him in Osmanthus City at the time, had taken Mira, Melidi and Mordred to do it in his name.

Juan then said solemnly: "Charles, after I die, you will be the king of the kingdom of Meseta." ”

Charles pursed his lips and said, "No." ”

"First of all, I'm not interested, and secondly, I'm too far away from your royal bloodline, and I can't sit in this position unless I marry Sofina, let alone you have a nephew. ”

"I suggest you find the Bishop of the Temple of Souls and Dreams to help you stabilize your soul so that you can live longer. ”

"Although I don't know why you burned your soul, as long as they take action, it can still be done to slow down the rate of your soul weakening. ”

Juan's face changed several times, and a secret he was hiding was unexpectedly discovered by Charles.

He asked, "How do you know I've burned my soul?"

Charles said: "Don't worry about these details, I think it happened when Sophia was born, right?"

A sad expression suddenly appeared on Juan's face, and he nodded.

He said: "An Assassin using a soul attack attempted to assassinate Sophia and her mother. ”

Charles frowned and asked, "Could it be related to this **?"

Juan shook his head and said, "Anthony was almost killed when he came to help, and he took almost five years to recover. ”

Now Charles has no clue, and he can't say whether Anthony is playing a bitter trick.

Seeing that Juan seemed to be planning to pull himself into the gang again, he hurriedly yawned, and then said: "Your Majesty, I haven't been able to get a good rest recently, and I now apply for retirement." ”

Juan shook his head helplessly and said, "Charles, the world is going to be chaotic again, I just want to protect this land in my own way, and I hope you can consider my suggestion." ”

Charles retired, and he planned to get some sleep tonight and then leave tomorrow, leaving him Juan to be careful by tying the elves to his chariot.

This king is not so easy to be, he dares someone to take this position, and the next day the nobles of the kingdom of Meseta dare to force him to marry Sophia, otherwise everyone will be emotionally unstable.

Then there is no need to talk about it.

When Charles left Juan's study, he found Sophia, dressed in a dress, standing in the hallway outside.

When she saw Charles, she shouted with some restraint: "Cousin......"

Charles smiled at her and asked, "Why are you here?"

Sophia said, "You haven't eaten today, I'll take you to the restaurant." ”

Charles nodded, he was indeed a little hungry.

It's just that Sophia is going to take Charles to the restaurant where she lives, and halfway through a garden.

Along the way, Sophia obviously had a lot of questions to ask Charles, but it was difficult to say them for a while.

As he walked to the middle of the garden, Charles's hand suddenly appeared on Sophia's waist.
