Chapter 469: Green Mountains and Green Waters (65)
"I can't make any commitments. Filmin said calmly.
"But I can. I promise that if the king is taken away and Filin doesn't follow him, he will reveal all your secrets, every secret. The servant said tremblingly, leaning his head back against the wall.
Filmin hurriedly turned around. The tears on his cheeks were slightly pink from the scars, and Filin couldn't bear to see them, so he had to rush downstairs.
The pock-faced man came to your window,
The pock-faced man comes to your door,
The pock-faced man brings disaster after disaster,
Knocks you to the ground.
When your candle goes out the blue flame,
You know the witch has robbed you of good luck.
Don't let the serpent be tempered on the stone of the hearth,
Otherwise, the scourge will cut your child to the bone.
Thy bread is not swollen, and thy milk is sour,
Your cream is not stirred.
Your shaft turns when it dries,
Thy knife turns around and cuts thee,
Your crows under the moon......
When he saw this, the head of the family knew that he was cursed.
"People have to find a way to get some blood. After hearing what I said, Floya calmly made this request as if she wanted a glass of wine, and also asked Xingcai and Rem for advice.
"I'm going to find a chicken. Rem finally reluctantly said. "I need a sack to keep it silent......" "Go ahead, then!" "Go ahead, take it back to the film, he'll find a knife and a basin, dispose of it there, and bring a cup of chicken blood back here.
The less people do here, the less they need to hide. "Filin would go to Starstar and Rem first, because Filin knew he wouldn't be able to get through the queen's maids alone.
Fei Lin quickly returned to the room for a moment, and asked them to visit the queen before him, ostensibly giving her a special herbal tea, but in fact quietly asking her to have a private meeting with Fei Lin.
She tells all the maids to leave, saying that it is enough for Stars and Rem to accompany her, and then sends Rosemary to fetch Filin.
At the moment, Rosemary is playing by the fireplace, concentrating on dressing up the doll.
As Rem and Starlight left the room, Floya looked at Firin. "I'd sprinkle blood on my coat and sheets, and I'd call Valles and tell him I was afraid I'd have a miscarriage from that fall, but that's all Filin can do, Kaz.
Filmin wouldn't let the guy touch Film, and wouldn't be stupid enough to take anything he concocted.
Filin did this only to distract him from the king, and he would not say that he had miscarried, only that Filin was worried about it. She said fiercely.
It was horrific that she had accepted so easily the good things His Majesty had done, and the confrontational measures that Filin had suggested she had to take, but he also desperately hoped that she would trust Filin from the bottom of his heart.
She doesn't say a word about betrayal or sin, but just discusses tactics like a general's tactics.
"That's enough. Filin assured her.
"I know Your Majesty, Prince. Valace would run to tell him the news, and he would follow Valles here, no matter how unseemly it would be, he would not be able to resist, and he would be eager to see how successful he was. ”
"My maids have been showing pity to Filmin for Hermes's death, and Filmin has had enough. They spoke as if Film's child was dead.
That's all I can bear. But I'll be patient if I have to. What if they sent someone to guard the king?" asked Floya.
"As soon as they come to you, he will knock on the door of the king's house to divert the target, and he will deal with any guards left in his room. ”
"But how can you expect to do anything good if you have to lure the guards away?"
"I have ...... Another person helped him. "Filin so hoped. Once again, Filin cursed at Atro for never letting Filin get in touch with him at this critical moment. "Trust me," he said each time, "and Filin will try to watch and listen to the events as much as he can, and summon you when it is safe to do so."
A secret is only a secret if one person knows. "Film's plans won't be confided in anyone, but they've leaked to the fireplace in Film's room.
I hope that in this way Etro will be able to hear more or less, and that he will use the only time he has to see the king, so that he can alleviate the king's illness and resist His Majesty's entanglement.
"It's torture. Floya said calmly, as if reading Filin's thoughts.
"Just abandoning an old man like that, leaving him to suffer from illness. She stared straight at Filin. "Don't you trust your queen enough to tell who your assistant is?"
"It's not a secret I can share with anyone, it's the king's own secret. Filin told her gently. "I'm sure you'll find out soon. "Let's go!" she let Filin leave, moving on the couch in a less comfortable way.
"I'm already so scarred that at least I don't have to pretend to be pitiful, but I have to endure a ruthless man who wants to kill his unborn relatives and torment his elderly father. ”
"I'll go. Filmin blurted out, feeling her getting angrier, and Filmin didn't want to add fuel to the fire.
Every detail of the masquerade had to be convincing, and she had to not reveal that she knew that the fall she had made was not due to her own clumsiness.
Filin walked out of the room and passed by Rem, holding a teapot on a tray while Constalin followed.
It's not going to be tea in a teapot. He deliberately allowed himself to look worried as he passed by a group of maids in the antechamber, and their reaction to the queen's request for the king's personal physician to come here was sincere enough. Fihrin hoped that this would be enough to lure His Majesty out of his lair.
Filin slipped into Starlight's room, leaving only a crack in the door. Filmin waited.
As he waited, he thought of an old man who would suffer again after the effects of the medicine wore off.
Filmin had experienced that kind of pain, and if that was taken into account, and if someone asked questions inconsiderately, would he still be silent and unconscious?
Then, as if days had passed, I finally heard the sound of skirts swaying and clackling footsteps in the hallway, and the sound of a panicked knock on King Creek's door.
Fei Lin didn't need to know what was going on, just by listening to the tone of voice, he knew that it was a frightened lady pleading with the gatekeeper, and then His Majesty's angry questioning, but suddenly it changed to fake care.
Fihrin heard him summon Valles, who had been exiled from nowhere, and heard him excitedly send for the queen to take care of her at once, for she had miscarried.
The group of maids passed by Filin's door again. Filin stood still and held his breath, then heard a jot and muttering, and there was no doubt that Valles was rushing over with various prescriptions.
Filin waited, breathing softly and quietly, trying to be patient until he was sure that his plan had failed.
Then he heard His Majesty walk calmly, and then the sound of another man running overshadowed him.
"It's a good bottle of wine, you idiot, don't bump into it. ”
His Majesty rebuked the man, and they went away. Fihrin waited further, and when he was sure that he had been allowed to enter the queen's residence, he forced himself to count to a hundred more before sneaking out the door to find the king.
Filin knocked lightly on the door, not very hard, but kept knocking, and later heard the person in the door ask who was knocking.
"Kaz Silverlight. Filmin said boldly. "I beg to see the King. ”
There was a moment of silence, followed by "No one is allowed to come in." ”
"Whose order is it?"
"Your Majesty, Prince. ”
"I have a token from the king, and he himself told me that I could see him at any time as long as I had it. ”
"Your Majesty, the prince has made a special statement that he will not let you in. ”
"But that's ...... before," Filin lowered his voice, muttering meaningless syllables.
"What did you say?"
He muttered again.
"Speak up. ”
"You can't let the whole castle hear about it!" retorted Flynn indignantly. "This is not the time to spread panic. ”
And it worked. He opened a thin crack in the door. "What the hell is going on?" he hissed.
Filming approached the door and looked around the hallway, then stared at the man in the crack in the door. "Are you alone?" asked Filin, suspicious.
"That's right!," he said impatiently, "can you say it now? ”
Filin leaned against the door and raised his hand to his lips, unwilling to let the slightest hint of Filin's secret.
The guard also moved closer to the crack in the door, and he blew quickly, his face immediately covered in white powder. I saw him stumble backwards, clutching his eyes frantically, and he was about to suffocate.
Not long after, he fell to the ground. Night Mist: A fast and effective deadly poison powder.
Filin found himself unharmed, but for his friend, whose shoulders were twisted from poisoning, it was no small feat.
The guard couldn't have been standing in the antechamber of Crick's room, but he had no idea what was going on inside, so Filmin struck first.
Filin slipped through the crack in the door and took great pains to remove the chain from the door, then heard the familiar roar.
"Get out of here, leave the door alone, go away, don't pull the latch, you idiot!" Filin caught a glimpse of a pockmarked face, and then the door slammed shut in front of Filin's eyes.
Etro was right, it was best for His Majesty to see the tightly locked door, and then painstakingly let his men split it open and enter the room. As long as His Majesty stays outside the door for one more minute, Etro will spend one more minute with the King.
The next errand was even more difficult than what Filmin had just done.
Filin went downstairs to the kitchen and had a cordial conversation with the cook, then asked her what was going on upstairs. The queen must have had a miscarriage, right? She immediately left the film and looked for someone who knew the details to find out.
Fihrin walked to the guardhouse across the kitchen and drank a little and forced himself to eat, but the food he swallowed lay like gravel in Firin's stomach.
No one was talking to Film, but Filmin was there.
