Lightning! A pillar of purple light slashed down from mid-air! A deafening sound pierced the hearts of all Parisians.

Paris is the symbol of this dynasty, where the dignitaries of the entire Kingdom of France gathered, and was the core of the power of the entire country.

However, the fate of the Kingdom of France was not like this, and since two hundred years ago, the Valu Empire has been in decline. The constant wars have made the entire kingdom of France smaller and smaller, so that today it has become a small dynasty that is not even a kingdom. The glory of the past is long gone.

The people of the Kingdom of France were angry and desperate. However, it seems that no matter what period or dynasty, the people in power will pretend to be deaf, pretend not to be able to see, and have always been in a posture of not caring about themselves.

Wage war against foreign countries to divert people's attention. Internally, it was insane and brutal repression. Because of this, the overall quality of the entire country of the Kingdom of France has long since fallen to a small second-rate country.

The Kingdom of France is the name of recent years, because a few decades ago, it was originally called the Bourbon dynasty. But with the regency of the Queen Mother, the entire newly rising country began to take the path of retreat, and there were other people who maintained the normal operation of the dynasty.

The Church of Saint-Etienne is a Catholic church in Paris, located on Place Saint-Genevière, near the Panthéon, and is architecturally both Gothic and Renaissance.

And on the roof of the church of Saint-Etienne, several dark shadows descended from nowhere. When the black shadows took off their hats, there were two acquaintances, one was Kenway, who looked a little older, and the other was Diana, who was already slim and girl-like.

"The night before, the Duke of Richelieu had been assassinated by the Empress Dowager Marie Medici. This is not the first time that he has been assassinated, and the Queen Mother always wants to get rid of Richelieu!"

"Yes, the Duke of Richelieu had cracked the rebellious plot of Gaston, Duke of Orleans, a few years ago. Among the nobles implicated were the general Donano, who was arrested and died in prison, the Duke of Vendôme and the young nobleman Shara' were arrested and imprisoned, and the Duchess of Chevruz was exiled to Lorraine, and a large number of nobles were either arrested or exiled. ”

"These diehards exist like cancers! The predecessors planted the trees, and the later generations cut down the trees. Diana said.

"Remember? More than ten years ago, it was originally from the Bourbons, but this woman from Florence ruined it all. ”

"Yes, after she became regent, people with stubborn ideas and no learning and no skills actually launched wars against foreign countries. Because of the old woman's corruption and incompetence, and extravagant expectations, the entire dynasty was depleted. ”

"This dynasty should have been replaced a long time ago!" Kenway said, "Although I wasn't the one who planned tonight's operation, I still feel a little strange. Why did Marie Medici choose to hold her meeting here?"

"No matter, even if the assassination of the Duke of Richelieu was done by the Queen Mother, then let her taste the assassination. One of the assassins took out his Hidden Blade almost in a frenzy, and his eyes wished to kill the mediocre Queen Mother immediately.

"No, we can't interfere in the internal affairs of other countries at will, so we are here today mainly to confirm that information. If there was evidence of the rebellion of the Queen Mother, it was handed over to the Duke of Richelieu. That's all we can do. Diana said.

However, while Kenway, Diana and the others were still having a heated discussion in the church, a horse-drawn carriage came running from a distance.

A figure dressed in black wore a veil, and did not forget to check around before getting out of the car, judging from the way she walked, it must be a rich woman. Because that temperament can't be imitated and can't be concealed!

The woman entered the church, and there was another man in the huge church, the Duke of Vendôme.

The Duke of Vendôme, who had been involved in three noble rebellions in his early years, was implicated in an attempted assassination attempt on Richelieu four years earlier, and was released after being forced to abandon Brittany this year.

"It must have been Marie Medici, who didn't run. Two guys who participated in the rebellion, there is certainly nothing good about them coming together. ”

"Then what now, we can't kill them, we need to tell the Duke of Richelieu about this!"

"Let's wait and see what happens......" Diana was also a little speechless, this is not easy to calculate, and it is not easy to start.

Inside the Church of Saint-Etienne

"Madam, you have been regent for more than ten years, and he is no longer that hairy child. If we don't control it, I'm afraid there will be a big problem......" said the Duke of Vendôme.

"I know that, but the biggest problem is not just him, it's Richelieu. He has reigned for so many years, and the power in the dynasty has always been very strong, and every assassination and rebellion against him has no beginning. "The woman in black was always covered with her hat, but her voice was sure to be Marie Medici.

"Who knows if the date of the last assassination will be chosen!, but it's the Thirteenth!" said Duke Vendôme angrily.

"Thirteenth, if you don't do it at that time, Richelieu will go to suppress you the next day!" Marie Medici also angrily accused, "If you had done it quickly, you would not have been stopped." ”

"Then how do you explain the action the night before yesterday, you actually sent someone to assassinate him privately, fortunately there is no handle left, otherwise sooner or later you will finish the game!"

"For all these years, if it weren't for Richelieu, I would have gained royal power long ago! Richelieu's army is on the edge of Paris, like a tiger, which threatens to overthrow me every day!" said Marie Medici: "Here is your next move, don't make a mess this time!"

After saying that, the Queen Mother handed a secret letter to Vendôme.

After a long whisper, the two men separated, with the Queen Mother Marie Medici staying in the chapel and the Duke of Vendôme leaving alone.

............

"Why does it always feel like something is wrong?" Kenway said with a hint of unease in his heart with years of intuition.

"Master, they are separated, and they can only be tracked separately!" Diana said.

"Okay, you go and follow Vendôme, I and a few others follow the Queen Mother to watch, you guys be more careful. Kenway Road.

"Okay, we got it. ”

Diana and the other two Assassins jumped off the roof and ran in the direction of the Duke of Vendôme.

Kenway and the other Assassins, who remained in place, were a little puzzled when they saw the Queen Mother Mary Medici who was still in the church, "What the hell is that woman doing?"

An assassin couldn't hold it anymore, so he stood on the roof of the house, shook off the rope, and landed quickly into the house, like a heavenly justice.

And the Queen Mother in the room was still motionless, and it was clearly a man's face under her clothes. The Queen Mother fled!

There was a cacophony of voices, and a team of masked men in royal uniforms suddenly appeared.

PS：

The history of Europe in the late Middle Ages was a bit messy, a bit like the melee between empires mixed with local warlord forces, and secondly, the European royal family was basically messy, so I directly quoted the characters directly to the air, anyway, we called it 'Otherworldly Volume', and the development of things in the other world must be different...... (I love this setting.,Kinkiki attacks are ineffective#Funny)

Finally, kneel down and beg for a wave of coins, thank you.
