Chapter 237: The Man Who Started a New Era
In the early days of the rise of a new power, villains like Bruno were indispensable to deter rival nobles, but when the regime was firmly established and the voices of the rebels were silenced, the villains became redundant. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info cunning rabbit death, lackeys cook, in peace years do not need too sharp claws of vicious dogs.
That's the problem Albert is facing now.
Bruno is a smart man, he knows this, which is why he has to make alliances with several other nobles before the eldest prince can completely inherit the throne. At a time when the political landscape of the imperial capital was changing, the old nobles were declining, and the emerging Mafoya family was gaining momentum, with great ambitions to annex the other Cana and Franz families.
Therefore, Bruno saw the opportunity to catch up with the giants of the Mafoya family.
"So, you don't have to worry about Princess Veronica's safety, she's just Albert's bait for luring you to Spitane. ”
In fact, a few days after the Holy Maiden predicted that Henry V would be critically ill and would die soon, the Council of the Six Generals held a private meeting to evaluate the three crown princes in an all-round way. Princess Sophia's strength is acceptable and approachable, which makes her have a lot of supporters, but the problem is that she has no intention of competing for the throne, nor does she have the heart to become a king; Prince Richard does not need to say much, the imperial capital is famous for its waste wood, even in the royal family, it is quite unpopular, although she is kind-hearted and broad-minded, but most of her supporters are the civilian class of the imperial capital, and it has no reference value.
Only Albert, in addition to his ruthless style, has shown the qualifications of the crown prince in all aspects since he was a child. When Henry V became ill, it was hard to believe that the eldest prince was only a young man under twenty years of age.
Mrs. Murphy knew Albert very well, so she told Lin Qiu with great certainty: "If Albert would be obsessed with a small incident that happened a few years ago, then he would not be able to get to where he is today...... He lured you here to get rid of Bruno by your hand. ”
Since Bruno is also a veteran-level existence under his influence, he cannot take action against Bruno from his position until he gets the throne.
However, if Bruno is dealt with by Prince Richard's right-hand man, it can also put his supporters in a sense of crisis and follow him even more desperately. ”
Lady Murphy smiled slightly: "If my guess is correct, when you get rid of Bruno, Albert will also take advantage of this matter to officially declare war on Richard." ”
The information this woman has is completely inconsistent with her identity.
Lin Qiu couldn't help but feel a sense of crisis-how could a big nobleman who couldn't be among the four major families have a clear grasp of Albert's plan. From the moment Mrs. Murphy offered him courtesy in public, he sounded the alarm in his heart.
Being able to see through his disguise at a glance and grasp his movements so clearly is not something that a "fan" can explain.
"So, you were sent by Albert to lobby me?"
"Unfortunately, I guessed wrong. Mrs. Murphy flatly denied that Albert was not capable of directing the Senate.
According to the agreement between the Senate and Albert, the purpose of her coming here was only to ensure the fall of Bruno - once Lin Qiu let Bruno go for some reason, the Senate would also secretly get rid of Bruno, and did not push this matter on Lin Qiu.
It was an accident to meet Lin Qiu, she just approached this recent celebrity in the imperial capital with a flirtatious attitude, but after contact, she made a bold decision on a whim.
The Murphy family's emblem necklace is genuine, but the crescent-shaped necklace can send not only the Murphy family in the imperial capital, but the entire Sixth Kingdom.
"But for now, I'm supposed to be on the same side as Albert," she admits very frankly. ”
"It looks like we're enemies. Lin Qiu quickly came to a conclusion.
"You're such an anxious boy. ”
Mrs. Murphy said amusedly: "What I said to you before is true--Albert and Richard are not my favorites, and a person like me who is not firm in his position will defect if he listens to the 'idol' for a few words." ”
As if due to the effects of alcohol, Mrs. Murphy squinted her long, narrow eyes and blushed.
She carefully observed the boy in front of her.
It is not uncommon for a kingdom to have a crown prince, and the same farce recurs every few decades, and Henry V may not be much more glorious than Albert when he ascends to the throne - this is a test that every new king must go through before he ascends the throne, and Henry V is well aware of this, so he has always turned a blind eye to Albert's behavior.
She has long been tired of watching the reincarnation that has to be staged every few decades.
But there are not many people like Lin Qiu, and throughout the history of Helutia, there are very few people with such potential.
The first king, Azi-Tris, and Maranfyn, the chief knight of the Round Table. Alyssa Shucarredo is barely one, but the path she chooses may end up in the same way as Maranfuin, and I am afraid that after the dust settles, Elisa will also choose to stay away from the imperial capital like Maranfuin, and will no longer be subject to any customs.
Only this young man was involved in the whirlpool of dynastic change and supported a wastewood prince who was not favored.
The current Lin Qiu is simply a copy of Maran Fuyin's youth.
All eyes were on him, he was in high spirits, and he held the key to open the door to the new world in his hand, but Maran Funne used the key in the wrong place at that time, which eventually led to the destruction of the Second Kingdom.
Otherwise, he would have been a pioneer in guiding the future.
Anyone who has come from Maranfin knows that both the king and the bishop were opposed to him and Sevela studying the Seal of the Four Knots, and that the difficulty he faced at that time was much more difficult than helping a wastewood prince to ascend to the throne.
Her instincts had always been accurate, and this time it brought her to the teenager.
"Didn't the Holy Maiden tell you that you resemble Maranfuin?"
The sudden change in topic made Lin Qiu unable to react for a while.
He had only met Maran Fern once, but he was impressed by the man who carried a large cross-shaped sword on his back. Of course, a deep impression is built on the unfathomable strength of the other party, as for the character...... The man simply subverted his perception of the top masters.
Before that, it was the saint who subverted his perception the most.
When the saint tripped over the fallen statue, she was destined to be incompatible with majesty.
These two people not only have the power to reach the top of the world, but also have the ability to disgrace the majesty of the church. Of course, in this regard, Lin Qiu did not evaluate the qualifications of the two, in terms of the ability to disillusion people, it is estimated that Maran Fuyin and the Holy Maiden are not as strong as him combined.
"Do you know Maranfyn?"
"Of course. ”
Mrs. Murphy replied proudly, "Not only do I know him, but I have arrested him with my own hands!"
