Snow White is gone...... Snow White is missing...... A day later, the news spread like the wind, and finally reached the king's ears, causing the king to be angry, and he ran to the queen's room in a rage, and his gloomy face seemed to be able to drip water, "Where has Snow White gone?" ”

"She went to play in the forest, but she was eaten by wild beasts." The queen wept very sadly.

"How do you know?"

"Hannibal sees it."

"Who is Hannibal?"

"A freedman." The queen shouted at the door and called Li Chao in, "He is Hannipa, and he saw Snow White being eaten by wild beasts." ”

"Say." The king glared at Li Chao, "Where was Snow White eaten?" What animals ate it? Tell me everything you know. ”

"It was eaten in the forest just ahead, as for the animal that ate her." Li Chao lied: "It was a very big tiger, very big, it bit Snow White, and it bit off Snow White's neck with a click, and when I reacted, Snow White was already dead, there was no way, I could only bring the news of Snow White's death." ”

While......

The king drew a thin sword and aimed it at Li Chao, "In this case, you go to the funeral of Snow White." ”

When the queen heard that the king was going to kill Li Chao, she was so frightened that she hurriedly stopped her, "Wait." ”

"Why?"

The king asked, turning his head in confusion.

Of course, it's because you can't kill him, and if you kill him, won't your secret be revealed? She didn't believe that people like Li Chao would die and wouldn't tell the secret.

"Because our daughter has been eaten by a tiger, we should pray for her and pray that she will return to the arms of the Lord and not be angry with others here." The queen walked behind the king and poured him a glass of water, "King, just for the sake of our daughter Snow White, don't kill anyone, okay?" ”

The faint fragrance of tea surrounded and penetrated into the king's nose, and he felt refreshed, he looked down at the tea handed over by the queen, and wondered, "Is this tea?" It is much more fragrant than the tea that came from the East before. ”

"This is a tea made by a secret method, and of course it is more fragrant than ordinary tea." The queen glanced at Li Chao and suddenly pulled him in, "Speaking of which, it's still the secret method of Hannipa's contribution." ”

What the?

What is the secret method I contributed? The tea was brewed by your own hands, and even the ingredients in it were prepared and put in by the queen herself, so why has it become my credit now.

But Li Chao quickly reacted and responded wittily, "Dear Your Majesty, this is a craft I learned from the Far East, and I am specially dedicated to His Majesty, I hope His Majesty will like it." ”

The king's index finger moved, but he remained reserved, "Hannipa, I am pleased with your dedication, and if this tea is as satisfying as its aroma, I will make you a member of my palace." ”

The king raised his head and drank it, and the fragrant tea became sweet in his mouth, and the sweet taste carried a hint of deadly temptation like a poppy, which made the king intoxicated.

"It's great." The king drank it all, "Very good, from today onwards, you will be the cook in my palace, and you will be responsible for making me tea in the future." ”

'Thank you, Your Majesty, but I wonder if I can ask for a reward?' Li Chao said softly.

"What reward?" The king was displeased, and he said to himself that if the man in front of him made some outrageous demand, he would have the soldiers take him and hang him.

"I want that crown on your head."

"What did you say?"

Wang Huo stood up, and just as he was about to open his mouth to scold Li Chao angrily, he felt a pain in his heart, and his whole body twitched, and he had a close contact with the earth before he could figure out who had harmed him.

"He's dead."

"Yes, the king is dead, and the country is yours."

"But there are still hidden dangers."

"Lord Ciric has been paying attention to this place for a long time."

"I mean the Holy See." The queen turned her face, "The sudden death of the king will definitely send someone to check on it, although I have been as careful as possible when preparing potions, I am still worried that the people of the Holy See will see something." ”

Poisoning the king, once exposed, she can't escape death, whether she is a noble queen or not.

After the thing was done, she actually had a trace of remorse in her heart, if she hadn't wanted to kill Snow White in the first place, would she not have come this far.

"I'm talking about the Holy See too."

Li Chao understood that the king was dead, and the queen had murderous intentions against herself, because she was the only person in the know, as long as she killed herself, the queen's secret would never be exposed, so he pulled out the fictitious banner of Ciric to deter the queen, and really suppressed the queen's killing intent.

"Lord Ciric has paid attention to this, I have contacted him, and he will come here after taking care of the matter in hand." Li Chao said: "However, the Dark Council is very far away from here, and even Lord Ciric will need a certain amount of time to be able to come over, so before that, we need to face the people of the Holy See alone." ”

"You've been in touch with Ciric?" The queen glanced at Li Chao suspiciously, "Why don't I know." ”

Li Chao raised the Book of Ciric in his hand without thinking about it, "This Book of Ciric is a magic weapon created by Lord Ciric himself, and it itself has the means to contact Lord Ciric. ”

"But now is not the time to discuss magic weapons, Queen, you should seize the opportunity to control the soldiers of the palace and make them loyal to you."

"What about you?"

"I'd like to see your collection, the section on wizards."

The queen looked at Li Chao, her eyes full of scrutiny.

"I just want to learn." Li Chao smiled and explained, "As you can see, I'm just a wizard who doesn't fall into the stream, but please don't doubt that I have a heart to learn knowledge." ”

"Mistress Cirek said that knowledge is power, and I agree with that."

"Knowledge is power?" The queen repeated this sentence, feeling that there was a very big truth in it, and couldn't help but nod her head in agreement, "Lord Ciric is worthy of being a wizard who created such a powerful magic weapon as the Book of Ciric, and even his wisdom is so profound, just like the starry sky above our heads, which is fascinating. ”

"It's an honor to meet such an adult."

"As for the book, it's not in the palace, but I can take you, it's not far from here."
