Rumors grow like weeds, especially those that can stir people's hearts up.

Now that Norton has demonized Seven and Ulysses, Keane is still under Seven's control, but she can still feel that the people in the palace look at her differently than before.

There was an extra fear that was hard to hide.

Standing in front of Ulysses' sleeping coffin, his fingertips gently caressing his eyebrows, a trace of bitterness tugging at the corners of his lips.

"Ulysses, if you don't wake up, I'm afraid you'll never see me again."

She didn't know how long she could last, in this plane, she was just an ordinary person without any special abilities, and she didn't need Brooke's army to attack her, she only needed the servants of Moxilyken Palace to kill her.

But when it came to that, she should be grateful for the rumors that made the people in Moxileken's palace afraid of her, at least she was safe for the time being.

The stalemate was finally broken in the early morning ten days later.

There was a riot in Keane, and it was a group of civilians who had been lured by rumors.

They want to overthrow Viscount Grantham's control of the royal city, and even if they don't need the king anymore, they want Commander Brooke to be the new king.

Maki finally dispatched the army that Ulysses had given her.

Although the army suppressed the riot, the soldiers in the army did not look at the eyes of the seven in their kindness.

Finally, as Brooke's army began to attack the city, Maki Qi sighed, changed into an imperial military uniform, tied his long golden hair high, and pinned a sword to his waist, leaving a gentle kiss on the corner of Ulysses' lips as he parted, and then stepped on his horse.

Farewell, perhaps, Ulysses.

The city gate slowly opened, the army stepped out in an orderly manner, and the two armies faced each other, and the side of the seven was obviously at a disadvantage.

"You've finally shown up, Viscount Grantham."

A faint smile tugged at the corner of Brooke's lips, and a hint of mockery overflowed between his handsome eyebrows.

Maki Qi's face was calm, and he slowly took off his white gloves and threw them at Brooke's face, Brooke sneered and grabbed the white gloves that flew over: "I never hit women, let alone duel with them." ”

"Try it."

"You're a woman." Brooke saw her slowly raise the saber at her waist, and the smile on her lips gradually calmed.

Ying Qi sneered: "So what? ”

"It's a shame for you to win."

"Then you win me first." He didn't say much, just grabbed the horse's belly and stabbed at Brooke with his sword.

If she wants to win against Brooke, she doesn't even have a point of certainty, although in this year, she learned the riding archery that only a Norton gentleman can learn, but Brooke is a knight after all.

Ying Qi could only hope for her thoughts, she had relied on her thoughts to confuse Lin Shan to beat herself in front of Shu Heng, and the world of Xuanjing was so strange and chaotic that she never used it.

"Brooke, look me in the eye and declare your dueling vow!" The light locked tightly on Brooke's eyes, trying to hypnotize him.

Brooke's expression began to be a little dazed, but it only lasted for a moment before he regained his senses.

It's a short time, is it because he's a vampire?

Although he didn't succeed, he succeeded in stabbing him.

Just as Brooke was gradually losing the upper hand in the duel, and the seven of them were in pursuit, a sharp sword suddenly landed at her neck.

"Throw away the sword in your hand." It was Grace's voice.

Ying Qi chuckled lightly, and obediently let go of the sword in his hand: "Brooke, it turns out that you have already left a hand." ”

Brooke clutched the wound on his waist, his eyebrows cold: "Keep her first." ”

Grace nodded unwillingly: "Yes." ”

Not far away, the army that was still fighting saw that Viscount Grantham had been captured, and they were already disloyal, so they immediately put down their weapons.

"Beck, you have such a way to get Brooke to let you and Richardson go." Maki Qiyun smiled lightly.

Grace looked at her with a sneer, "Siper, did you always think that you were playing me around?" To tell you the truth, the person who planned this southern rebellion was not Richardson at all, how could he have this intelligence! ”

As for Richardson's male lover, Harvey, he was killed by Brooke's design during the suppression of the Southern Rebellion.

What she said was a little different from what Ju Qi guessed, but the general direction was the same.

She feigned shock and turned her eyes to Grace, "What did you say?" ”

"That's what you heard, the reason the king appeared at Lauris's bar mitzvah was because Brooke told him that your father, Ferdinand Sr., and Richardson had conspired to rebel, and that's why the king went to Clovis's domain."

"How do you know?"

A strange smile tugged at the corner of Grace's lips: "Brooke trusts me the most right now. ”

There is trust when there is a deal, and she gave Brooke what he needed most.

"Of the three Richardsons, only Richardson knows that Brooke is the driving force behind the scenes, and your father and Ferdinand Sr. are kept in the dark. As for killing William, it was also proposed by Brooke to the king. ”

Grace paused slightly at this point and sneered: "But speaking of which, the man you fancy is really stupid enough to believe in Brooke so much." ”

There was a bit of anger overflowing in the eyes of Ju Qi, in Ulysses's long life, he rarely trusted a person, but he didn't expect this person to be the mastermind behind the scenes.

She stared at Grace with straight eyes, Grace's eyes gradually hollowed, and Grace snatched the sword from her hand, grabbed the horse's belly, and stabbed straight at Brooke's back.

Just as she was about to stab Brooke, he flashed and stabbed him in the air.

Sitting on horseback, her body was unstable and she almost fell down.

A huge black shadow flew by, snatching her into his arms, and when she reacted, she was being held in the arms of a man in a black cloak.

"Ulysses, are you awake?" When she saw his face, she cried out in surprise.

Ulysses took her by the waist and flew past the crowd, landing firmly on the high wall.

He looked at her with a low smile in his eyes, and then took out a pair of pearl earrings and necklaces from his pocket to help her put them on: "I don't know why, these two things have been lying in my coffin, look, they are more lined with you." ”

"Ulysses, you've finally appeared."

Brooke's voice interrupted her interaction with Ulysses.

Ulysses glanced at him with a faint glea: "Brooke, it's really hard for you all these years, it's so deeply hidden. ”

Ying Qi was suddenly surprised: "Ulysses, why did your eyes turn black?" ”

Ulysses didn't notice the color of his pupils: "Is there one?" I don't know very well. ”

He must have been asleep for a long time.

For he felt that he had had a long dream, and the scene in the dream was clear and strange, but he did not remember what he had dreamed of at all.

It's just that the heart-rending pain in the dream still lingers faintly in his heart, making him in a trance.
