His Majesty the King died suddenly, and the second prince suddenly ascended the throne, things happened so fast, so fast that it was a little incredible.

The previous king, Emperor Crowk Asimov, was an eighth-order warrior and also had an eighth-order contract creature. Two eighth-order existences, who could kill them without making a sound?

Moreover, the king's corpse and his indentured creatures have not been seen by anyone, only two princes and a princess, and a few officials, but those officials have now been executed by the new emperor for treason. And the eldest prince, Princess Tina, is still under house arrest, and the location of the house arrest is also unknown.

And those royal guards, those who were at least members of the fifth order, they also died very strangely, there were no scars on their bodies at all, and there were no symptoms of poisoning, it looked like they had suffocated themselves to death.

It's like a joke, a fifth-order warrior can be suffocated to death by himself?

"This matter can be said to be very directly related to you. ”

The Grand Duke said to Wang Wei.

"Okay, Daddy. We know there's a lot of fog in this, but what does that have to do with us?"

Wang Wei couldn't understand that even if the second prince really usurped the throne, he didn't instigate it?

"That's exactly what I'm saying. Because they think you're dead, that's why they dare to instigate this operation, do you believe me when I say that?"

The old man looked at Wang Wei's eyes and said word by word.

"What? Think I'm dead to dare to do this? I have that much ability?"

Wang Wei doesn't believe it anymore.

"But it seems to me that this is the case. ”

The Grand Duke said slowly.

"Not long ago, Léa escorted the princess back to the Imperial City, and she reported to the king the whole of your trip to the Far Mountain Council, and she said that you had built a huge warship, as huge as a fortress on the sea, and that it could sink a whale warship with a single blow. Aren't these?"

After receiving a nod of confirmation from Wang Wei, the Grand Duke continued.

"Then you go after the Sea Clan, but do you know that the mainland has fought no less than a hundred huge battles against the Sea Clan, and there are countless small battles, none of which can be successful! No one has ever believed that you will come back alive, and even I am extremely worried. As a result, you left for two whole months, and no one would believe that you would sail on the vast sea for two months without supplies, and the Sea Clan would never let you sail at sea for two months. Especially a month ago, Prince Allagor, the prince of Tolkien's empire, returned from the combined fleet of the Navy and brought news of your death!"

Wang Wei then remembered that at that time, he had to be handsome and pretend to be a martyr. As a result, Aragon may really be regarded as a martyr.

"Yes, it was the day he announced that you had been buried at the bottom of the sea, and the murder of the king took place immediately afterwards! ”

The Grand Duke said.

"Afraid, afraid of what, afraid of a dead man?"

Wang Wei felt even more incredible, even Luna on the side felt a little inexplicable.

"It's not that I'm afraid of a dead man, it's that I'm afraid of a king, I'm afraid of us, the Grand Duke!"

The old man shook his head and said.

"The second prince is different from his brother, His Royal Highness the eldest prince is a typical martial artist, he always lacks thought before doing something. The second prince is different, since he was a child, I have found that his way of thinking is very different from other children, he is very easy to go to extremes, and will think about many simple things very complicated. ”

"You, a man who came out of the forest. In a short period of time, he learned to speak, learned to fight, became a nobleman, gained his own domain, became engaged to the daughter of an archduke, built a rare castle in a matter of months, and then suddenly built a giant warship that even the Sea Clan could boast of. ”

"What would you think if I told you this story if I didn't connect with yourself?"

The Grand Duke asked Wang Wei.

"I definitely think it's a story designed by you and His Majesty the King, Daddy, and I am the actor, a force that the King wants to cultivate!"

Wang Wei said with a smile that his progress speed has exceeded everyone's imagination, which is not at all a speed that human beings can achieve. No one would believe that it was earned through their own strength.

"That's right, so some of us privately believe that His Royal Highness the Second Prince's fear that your death may cause His Majesty to find a new direction for cultivation, and eventually everything will be out of his control. You know, the rise of Renault and you in the past two years has made many people uneasy. ”

The Grand Duke said with some heaviness.

"So what do you Grand Dukes think?"

What Wang Wei doesn't understand the most now is the thoughts of his father-in-law and those who are like his father-in-law, and now there are three grand dukes in the country, namely Fernando, the lion grand duke who guards Lingnan County.

The Grand Duke of the Sacred Flame guarding the western frontier, Kyle Yi, is the father of Vincent Yi who once participated in the robbery.

and Atlas Verdun, the Crystal Grand Duke to the north, on the border with the Frozen Lands.

The three Grand Dukes seemed to be on the fringes of the imperial capital, and did not participate in any agenda at all except for major domestic conferences. But everyone knew what it meant for those grand ducal realms to be stationed there.

The border is always a place of war, no matter where it is. With the exception of the eastern seas, these frontiers are spent almost every day in the midst of war.

Lingnan County, where Grand Duke Fernando is located, is the most stable place, with the endless Amazon Forest to the south, the Gray Dragon Mountains in both directions, and the vast ocean in the east. As the granary of the Empire, this is probably the first place to be attacked in the event of a war. Therefore, it has always been heavily guarded by the lion legion of the Grand Duke of Fernando.

The same is true on the other three borders.

The number of these regiments is almost half of the total number of the entire national army!

But, in any case, these armies cannot be mobilized.

"The only thing we wanted to do was to find out what was really going on at that time, and then we could know what we should have done. ”

The old man looked at Wang Wei's eyes and said.

"Okay, leave this matter to me, it just so happens that I am also going to the imperial capital, I have a fun way. ”

Wang Wei rarely took the initiative to take this matter on himself, which greatly exceeded Duke Fernando's expectations.

"This matter is not as simple as you think, my child, a prince is absolutely not willing to be able to kill his father and rebel so smoothly, the incidents on the border are becoming more and more tense day by day in the past few days, day by day, we are very suspicious that there is the support of foreign forces behind the second prince. ”

The old man didn't quite agree with Wang Wei coming in.

"I said, I don't like that guy, I like the queen, the eh, the king of women. ”

Wang Wei said.

Wang Wei told his father-in-law about Leia's finding of himself, and the father-in-law immediately agreed that Wang Wei would rescue Princess Tina, and even worse, maybe the entire imperial capital would be turned upside down.

"There is a saying in my old hometown that it is called fishing in troubled waters. It means muddy the water and then go and catch the fish. What if I suddenly appear in the imperial capital and suddenly rescue Princess Tina, or to put it more seriously, and I suddenly announce my support for Tina's accession to the throne? I guess there must be some people who can't sit still, and if there are really some foreign forces supporting him, then they will definitely not want to see me suddenly appear, because they all know that it is very likely that Lingnan County is behind me. ”

"Once they think that Lingnan County is behind this, then they will definitely be worried that the rest of the Grand Dukes will also be involved, then no matter who is hiding in the meantime, they will definitely not want to see the things that were originally going smoothly be suddenly changed, and there will definitely be some people who will make a move. At that time, no matter who makes any moves, it will be something we very much want to see. ”

Wang Wei said.

Cao Cao will always live better than Emperor Han Xian, although Wang Wei doesn't want to be Cao Cao, he doesn't want to watch Dong Zhuo run rampant there.

However, this time, His Royal Highness the Second Prince is far worse than Dong Zhuo in history.

Wang Wei lived in his father-in-law's house for a total of three days, leaving behind countless treasures of the Sea Clan, some of which were used to fill the gap in the funds that Wang Wei had taken away from the Burning Crystal Cannon, and some of which were given as gifts to his father-in-law.

For these rare sea clan treasures on the land to pop up so many at once, even the well-informed lion Grand Duke was a little moved, although Wang Wei told him what had happened, but these things were still difficult for the Grand Duke to accept. Look at the colorful pearls, the big ones are almost as big as a fist, and the smallest ones are several times larger than the pearls that can be seen on the average continent. There were also some corals, ocean volcanic crystals, and some rare water element crystals, and the Grand Duke was obviously extremely shocked by Wang Wei's harvest this time.
