Chapter 311: Another Change
This is not a simple question, and as a result, Benjamin has to think carefully - what would have turned out if he had spoken out?
First of all, it depends on how the king chooses. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
If he was furious and tore his face directly with the Mage Freemasonry, it would definitely cause some turmoil. The Mage Freemasons still have their influence, and if Aldrich can incite most of the mages in Freden, it is possible to bring down the entire country.
Of course, people who can become kings should not be so impulsive. It is more likely that the king appeared to be kept in the dark and secretly weakened the mage Freemasonry. The two sides are thus locked in a battle in an unknown place, and it is difficult to predict who will win in the end.
And the point is, who should Benjamin help?
Out of stance, he should help the mage, and out of morality, he should help the king. If the Mage Freemasons want to elevate the royal family like the Kingdom of Hori, and let the Mages control the country, it is not without benefits for Benjamin. But...... What if there are others behind them?
Didn't that Finch mage always have a relationship with Ikor side? and he had a good relationship with the mage Freemasons. In case the black hand behind it is Ikor and Benjamin helps Aldrich, and the queen turns around and ascends the throne with a smile, then where can he go up and cry?
But what he knew about the king was limited to such a meal. The emperor's family is a very complex existence, who knows if the king will also research some means in the future, like the queen, to forcibly control the mage and use it for him?
It's not to say, it's not to say......
It's tangled.
Benjamin has paresthesias headaches.
This group of people is also enough, isn't it good to live in peace, do you have to eat enough to make something happen? Everyone is developing peacefully, and wait until the day when he has a million mages before starting a group, can't he?
How could he have imagined that a curious glance at the Mage Freemasonry this afternoon seemed to push him to some major historical juncture.
In this way, while Benjamin was thinking, the king was also searching for the princess. The chamber dispersed, and the king turned and glanced at Benjamin.
"Master Benjamin, my personal guard has confirmed the entire palace, and there should be no more danger. He patted Benjamin on the shoulder and said, "I'm going to interrogate the people involved now, there are credible mages in the Guard, and they will protect me." I'm really bothering you. ”
When Benjamin heard this, he glanced at the guards beside him, and suddenly approached the king, and whispered, "Your Majesty, I have something very important to tell you. ”
Finally, he made a decision.
Who knows what the future holds, but at least, he has to mix in such a big thing.
"Oh?" the king's expression was also quite surprised, he glanced at the guards beside him, and finally whispered, "You say, they are all trustworthy people, and there is no need to break up." ”
Are you sure......
Benjamin was skeptical.
It seems that the king still does not trust him enough, and is afraid that Benjamin will have bad intentions, so he does not want to talk to him alone, and only has a few guards on his side.
This can be regarded as a common problem of the emperor.
"The assassin of His Majesty in the dark, whom I just met this afternoon, at the headquarters of the Mage Freemasonry. Benjamin, however, didn't care, and whispered so.
Suddenly, the king's face changed slightly.
"Are you sure?"
"I'm sure. Benjamin continued to whisper, "If Your Majesty doesn't believe it, you can verify it yourself, and you should be able to find the princess's clue." ”
The king's expression was a little delicate, and Benjamin couldn't tell his mood at the moment. But soon, his face returned to normal, and he patted Benjamin's shoulder vigorously again, and said to the people next to him: "It's okay, you just stay in the guest room and rest for the night, don't leave in a hurry." You've helped a lot today. ”
Then, he beckoned and left with a few of his guards.
Seeing this, Benjamin probably knew what the king was going to do. Therefore, he did not object, and followed another servant who came out of the side, and returned to the previous room.
He also knew that from this moment on, this muddy water, he could be regarded as completely flowing in.
Standing by the window of the room, looking out the window at the busy guards and servants who came and went, Benjamin fell into deep thought again. He pondered what he could do to get the most out of it.
Once the king verifies Benjamin's words, Benjamin will also gain the king's trust. This is his most direct gain.
But...... Trust alone doesn't seem to be enough.
As the clock ticked by, Benjamin looked at the dark night sky and guessed what was going on throughout the city. However, at this moment, he can only wait in this small guest room.
An hour later.
"Master Benjamin. ”
With a call, the door to the room was opened, and the king, disguised as a guard, quietly entered.
"See Your Majesty. Benjamin saluted and said slowly, "How is it? Your Majesty has verified everything I said? Is Her Royal Highness in the Mage Freemasonry?"
The king closed the door, shook his head, and said, "No, unless I send the Mage Freemasons directly, there is no way to verify this." But I've interrogated something about that assassin. ”
Isn't there a verification......
Benjamin was a little disappointed.
However, failing to verify his words, the king still met him alone, which shows that the king has begun to trust him, doesn't it?
"Your Majesty, what is the clue?" asked, therefore, Benjamin.
"The assassin who infiltrated the palace had sneaked in from a bag of food. The king replied, "The palace has always been very careful in buying food, and there will be special personnel to check bag by bag." It's just that the person in charge of this afternoon's inspection used to be the gatekeeper of the Mage Freemasonry. It's just that when I wanted to interrogate him, he was already dead. ”
Hearing this, Benjamin was not disappointed at all: "Your Majesty, isn't this tantamount to verifying my words? The mastermind behind this assassination and kidnapping is the Mage Freemasonry. ”
However, in his heart, he still secretly slandered himself, this sneaking method is indeed a bit too rough.
The Mage Freemasons dare to do this, they are too confident, right?
"Not completely, but I trust you. The king sighed and said, "Although you are still wanted in Ikor and say that you are a spy sent by the Kingdom of Hori. I don't think you're that kind of person, though. ”
Benjamin also swore that "those are the words that the Queen used to slander me." ”
The king laughed twice, then suddenly put away his smile and said with a solemn face: "You should also know what the betrayal of the Mage Freemasons means to the whole of Freden. ”
Benjamin nodded.
"I'm not going to break with them openly, however, I need the help of more mages. The king continued, "I know that you still have some fellow mages in Riley, and you should understand that those people are not enough. ”
Hearing this, Benjamin was overjoyed.
Could it be ...... Is the king ready to support them?
At that moment, however, there was another knock at the door, interrupting what the king might be about to say.
The king frowned, turned around, and opened the door.
Outside the door, the servant who had begun to pick up Benjamin.
"What's the matter?" the king asked directly, without shying away.
"Your Majesty, it's Her Royal Highness the Princess...... The servant was a little flustered, took a deep breath, and then whispered, "Master Aldrich captured the assassin and brought Her Royal Highness the Princess back, and now she is waiting in the council chamber!"
