"What's wrong?" Xu Zheng asked, looking at Bruce who was walking over quickly. It was the first time he had seen this kind of expression on Bruce's face, frightened and uneasy, the green tendons on his forehead temples were bulging and throbbing suddenly, and his handsome and mature face was distorted and looked a little hideous. At the same time, he forcibly suppressed himself to calm himself, making Bruce's face even more gloomy and uncertain, and his uncontrollable instinct exuded the royal majesty of Samuel, and the momentum of the whole person was undoubtedly unapproachable.

"What's wrong? what's going on?" Xu Zheng asked again in disbelief. Bruce's expression gave him a very bad feeling. He remembered that Bruce had set off to the East Cape of Good Hope in the morning to check on the progress of the development there, why did he have such an expression when he came back? Or was there something wrong over there? Or were there other forces that wanted to get their hands on the East Cape of Good Hope? Xu Zheng remembered that there was such a thing once, but it had been strongly leveled by Flein Barth, the female flying captain and her Warcraft Flying Brigade, and beat the bandit group that had formed a temporary gang to flee and scatter, so that there was no force near the East Cape of Good Hope that could affect it. What's the trouble this time?

Bruce looked over and said in a deep voice, "Xiao Zheng, Hawke, you come with me." ”

Hawke also felt that something was wrong, and looked at Xu Zheng puzzled. Xu Zheng replied to him with a blank expression, and the two followed closely behind Bruce and walked towards the house where Bruce lived.

Entering the house, Bruce waved away all the people, leaving only a few knights from the imperial capital, inhaling and exhaling deeply, back and forth a few times before calming down.

Seeing Bruce nervous, Xu Zheng wanted to relax the atmosphere and say two little jokes, but seeing Bruce like that, he just couldn't say it, and faintly felt that the mountain rain was about to come and the wind was full of buildings, which was very unsettling.

Hawke said calmly: "We have been through so many things together. What else is so terrible? Say! Xu Zheng and I are behind you! I didn't die when the silver arrow was surrounded, and the entire Virgil royal family abandoned me. I'm still living a healthy and comfortable life. Why? It's nothing more than you and Orson Manor supporting me behind me and giving me the courage to face everything. No matter what's going on now, that's what I want to say to you!"

Xu Zheng nodded, reached out to hold Bruce's hand and shook it heavily.

Xu Zheng's palm was dry and warm, and the firm power was transmitted to his hand through the slender phalanges. As if it had a calming effect, Bruce suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, smiled wordlessly and gratefully, and then said slowly: "Zion has an accident!"

"What?!" Xu Zheng Huo Ran's eyes widened: "Something happened to Zion?"

Hawke's eyebrows raised, but he didn't squeak. Ajasi's knights became nervous and looked at Bruce uneasily: "Your Highness, what's wrong?" Their families, the places they fought for, were there, and it was impossible not to be nervous.

Bruce paced around the room irritably, "When I went to the Cape of Good Hope in the morning." The third brother's subordinates brought me the news that the king of Cheng'an had changed hands, and that the king of Dain and the queen had disappeared together, and that Samuel Cézanne was now temporarily regent. ”

Xu Zheng's mouth opened wide in surprise. I couldn't digest the news for a long time.

"Dai ...... Uncle Dane and Empress Yaqi disappeared together?!" Xu Zheng stammered.

Bruce shook his head nervously: "This news is true. I'm worried. ”

I wanted to comfort Bruce just now, but now Xu Zheng himself was also upset when he heard the news, and he suddenly lost his bearings.

The only one of the three who has experienced a great change in the family is Hawke. When he was flustered about the disappearance of his loved ones like headless flies for two days, Hawke frowned and pondered, and only asked after a long time, "When did you get the news?"

"This morning. Bruce said.

Hawke shook his head: "I don't mean that. I am asking what is certain about the news of the disappearance of His Majesty and the Queen. ”

"Two weeks ago. ”

"Prince Forun's men...... Is that man reliable?"

"Reliable. He is the companion of the third brother, and the two grew up together when they were young. His relationship with the third brother is like the relationship between you and Niu Niu. If he brought, there would be no bends in it. ”

Xu Zheng is thoughtful. I couldn't think of these royal entanglements, so I couldn't interject at all, so I could only listen to the two of them talk.

"Really?" said Hawke.

Bruce nodded slowly, "Seriously." ”

Hawke sneered: "The king is gone, such a big thing has only reached your ears now, and it is not that simple." The current regent, that Samuel Cézanne, if I don't remember, is your uncle, himself...... Is it reliable?Is there any reason for not seeing the light in it?" After all, Hawke experienced a royal dispute with the three brothers and sisters to seize power, and his mind was far less sunny than Bruce and Xu Zheng, and he first thought of the dark and ugly side of the royal family. The royal affairs, once it involves the ownership of the throne, have always been bloody and brutal, and the darkness and intrigue in it are ugly beyond the imagination of ordinary people. As long as everything is related to that, there will be no brothers, fathers and sons, and everyone will not recognize them!

Xu Zheng is not as complicated as Hawke, but he is not stupid, and immediately said: "The Royal Samuel is not the same as your Virgil family, I can feel it." The Samuel royal family is a big family, and your Virgil is an out-and-out royal family, and both his actions and thinking patterns carry the flavor of the royal family's six relatives. Something like killing a brother and killing a father doesn't happen in the Samuel Royals. ”

Hawke raised his eyebrows and said, "Everything is as good as you think, and there will be no war and turmoil." But ......" Seeing Xu Zheng's worried and angry face, and Bruce was also in a bad mood, Hawke finally held back and stopped saying anything that made the two more uneasy.

Bruce groaned, and after a while, he also said, "I don't think Uncle Huang has any conspiracy. In his early years, like our brothers, he avoided the lonely throne, and his personal interest was in traveling and doing business, and he did not want to sit on it and be tormented. Although his father does not have much eloquence and talent, the imperial uncle is inferior to his father, and his father obviously knows how to keep the family business better than him. Uncle Huang has always been very wise to know that he can't be a good king, so he never argues with his father, and we all know about it. ”

"Really?" Hawke sneered, but he didn't agree with Bruce. "How do you know that he is not hiding his ambition and strength? I didn't have the heart to fight for the throne before, but seeing my father and Sean make Virgil like that, my brother and sister are calculating me." If you want to get rid of me, I don't end up fighting with other people? In order to revitalize Virgil, he finally got involved. You don't necessarily have to be able to make your own decisions about royal affairs, you can do whatever you want. ”

Xu Zheng was uneasy in his heart, and it was inevitable that he had a bad breath. Glaring at Hawke: "Shut up, do you think everyone is like your brothers and sisters? The Samuel royal family has no reason to persecute anyone, and will not be forced to rebel because someone is persecuted." ”

Hawke snorted, still holding on.

Xu Zheng hesitated and asked, "Blue, Samuel? Cézanne, this imperial uncle rarely hears you mention, and I don't seem to have seen him." After a pause, he said with some uncertainty: "Don't talk to him in front of me." Is there any other reason why you don't want to mention it? The royal affair is indeed very complicated, and sometimes it is like a pot of porridge, which is why I didn't like to be with you when I didn't know about Samuel Royal at the beginning. Well...... This one...... I don't want to think so, though. But are you sure what Hawke said won't turn out to be true?"

Bruce was even more irritated. After pacing for a long time, he stopped and said, "You don't like royal restraints, when you were in the imperial capital of Zion. Although your father named you the second prince, you prefer the plain and warm Lucina's wilderness tavern, if it weren't for the invitation of the people, how many times did you take the initiative to enter the palace? The chances of meeting each other are even lower. ”

Bruce was anxious, and his tone was naturally not good. Xu Zheng shrank his head and didn't dare to squeak. Bruce wasn't wrong at all, at the beginning he really didn't like the Royal Samuel Royal, he always felt that he had the taste of bribing and wooing himself, and everything along the border with the Royal Samuel was avoided. Later, I slowly learned that it was true that the entire Samuel Royal was pulling him in, but it was not false to treat himself with sincerity, and it was because of Rex's care and care, and the dependence of Sadie and the little Mayan princess, that he fell in love with Samuel Royal. But it didn't take long for him to be transmitted to the Western Continent because of messing with the magic array. Therefore, it makes sense that he has never met the imperial uncle who has never sought an opportunity.

Bruce stopped and said, "Actually, you and Uncle Huang have met. Do you remember when you first arrived in the imperial capital, you met a merchant who later sent you to the imperial capital of Zion, called Muse Cézanne?"

"Is that him?" Xu Zheng said. I remembered his appearance, and even his long words that were a little meaningful when the two sides were separated. At that time, he said, if one day you really understand how to enter the imperial capital, come and return my favor. I didn't think it before, but now that I think about it, I realize that this sentence has a deep meaning. It turned out that the person who said this sentence was actually Bruce's imperial uncle, and the Samuel royal family was the first to have the intention of wooing, and most of them came from him.

"It's him. Bruce said: "You should also remember that in order to ensure that the Samuel royal family did not degenerate, there was a rule of not engaging in politics or not in business several generations ago. The emperor's uncle paid for his own inadequacy as not being a monarch, so he gave up politics and turned to business. In fact, Uncle Huang's talent in this area is better than being a king, and in the years of Cheng'an's hardship, Uncle Huang's contribution was very great. If he really wanted to take his father's place, he just had to say it, and his father would let him immediately. By the way, you may not know that you can walk into our sight, and the first person to give a hint is Uncle Huang. My father often praised me, saying that the best skill I am at among my siblings is to recognize people, but in fact, I think Uncle Huang is much better than me in this regard. He'd long ago decided that you weren't an ordinary person, and had mentioned you to me and Jimmy early on. What's more, although Uncle Huang has a strange personality, he has always loved our brothers and sisters, and he also respects my father's brother very much, saying that he wants to play something to seek power and seize the throne, let alone me, even my father will not believe it. ”

"It's because of unbelief that you can easily fall for it. Hawke muttered: "You are the same as Xu Zheng, you like to think about things for the good in everything, and when you are like me, you will know that it is best not to be so naïve in everything." ”

"Gotcha, gotcha. Hearing what Blue said, I didn't want to believe that it was the emperor's uncle who made the trouble. Huo Huo, you guy just has a darker heart. ”

Hawke snorted and looked at Bruce.

Bruce said: "To be honest, I can't think of what happened, but my heart is very confused, worried about my father and mother, afraid that he will be in danger. ”

Xu Zheng said: "Why don't you go and call Fulun's subordinate to ask again?"

Bruce said: "I have asked very carefully, and he only knows the news, and he doesn't know any other details." He only said that he asked me to go back and ask the third brother, and he knew. ”

Xu Zheng's heart moved, and he faintly grasped something, and heard Bruce say again: "Now I'm afraid I can only figure it out when I go back." Alas, I wish I could fly back with my wings in my wings. ”

Hawke frowned there again, and said, "It seems that the main purpose of this person bringing the news is to urge you to rush back to the imperial capital immediately, and you won't know anything if you don't return to Zion." I'm afraid you'll have to rush back as soon as possible. I still insist on my conspiracy theory, you had better be prepared before you go back, one is to avoid being held hostage, and the other is to find out the whereabouts of Uncle Dane as soon as possible, the country cannot be without a king for a day, if this news spreads, sooner or later there will be chaos. ”

It is imperative to go back, and immediately. Bruce turned his head to look at Xu Zheng. Xu Zheng immediately said: "I will spend a lot of money through Arisio to acquire the high-level magic crystals that activate the magic teleportation array, if the money is not enough, let the Penoch Chamber of Commerce take care of it first, and we will rush back to the imperial capital in the fastest way." ”

"We?" Bruton paused.

"Yes. We. Xu Zheng said with certainty: "I am also a member of the Samuel family, no matter what happens, I have the responsibility to take care of my home!"

"Xiao Zheng!" Bruce's heart was warm, and his irritable and anxious mood suddenly relaxed.

Everything is like this, when there is an accident, there is a family member who can be trusted and relied on standing firmly by the side, and that feeling is that no matter how big the storm is, we can face it hand in hand.

"Hmm. Xu Zheng nodded: "No matter how much you say, it's redundant, everything has to go back to the imperial capital to understand clearly." Blu, you go and prepare, Hoho goes to help, and I go and prepares for going home. With that, he immediately went out, and Bruce and Hawk discussed it for a while, and they also went their separate ways.
