Section 25 The Assassin Strikes

Fifty thousand soldiers of Garbadia were encamped in the north of the plain of Kargis, and forty thousand soldiers of the Duchy of Los were encamped in the south. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 After nightfall, Luthieva slipped out of his tent while everyone was asleep, avoided the sight of the patrolling soldiers, went to the wild forest at the foot of the mountain near the plain, found a tree with markings, took out a set of clothes that had been prepared there in the grass under it, quietly changed into it, and followed the road at the foot of the mountain to the direction of the border of Los Angeles.

At the village entrance to the border, a horse-drawn carriage was quietly parked in the moonlight. The driver was lying in the driver's seat with a long wooden toothpick in his head, looking at the night sky in a daze. At this moment, a heavy bag of gold coins was thrown from behind him and landed right on his stomach.

"It's the agreed amount, and I'll pay the last amount when I'm settled. ”

The coachman didn't say much, but watched the distinguished guest behind him, who was dressed in plain clothes but had luxurious blond hair, get into the car and sit down, whip lightly, and drive towards the Los Border Garrison.

News of the Crown Prince's disappearance immediately spread throughout the Garbadia military camp early the next morning. The agitated soldiers presented their opinions to the king, all speculating that the prince's crown prince had been kidnapped by the Duchy of Los, and unanimously insisted that the dignitaries should immediately rush into the Los military camp. Soon after, however, a letter was found in the crown prince's tent and presented to Anglas. On that letter, only one sentence was written:

"Father, please give the throne to the person who is best suited to inherit it. ”

When Anglas read the message, he was furious, tore up the letter in front of his ministers, and ordered everyone not to look for the crown prince and let him go.

Luthieva left his dynasty, gave up his country, and went to the merchant life of his dreams. No one knew where the crown prince had gone, and no one had to restrain his bohemian heart anymore.

At this point, the story finally came to an end, and Luthieva and Alicia sat quietly in the sunlight seeping through the leaves. They bowed their heads and were silent, imagining that each other's growth experience in the twelve years of separation was not imprinted in their memories.

Finally, Alicia spoke first:

"The 'most suitable person to inherit the throne' mentioned in my brother's letter is actually Yaga, right?"

Luthieva nodded silently.

"But Yaka mistakenly thinks that the person to whom you are referring is me. Alicia sighed and said.

"Yaga is a vengeful man, and his eyes have been blinded by hatred. "Before, I really thought that Yaga was a better person to be a king than I was, and he deserved to be treated like that, but the world is so unfair to him. ”

"Brother, no matter what, Yaga is the enemy who killed our parents, and no matter what reason he has, he should not do such an excessive thing. Whenever Alicia thinks of the silver mask back then, she can't contain her resentment. Yaga held her mask up to the sky and smiled, the blood of her parents sticking to the blade of her sword, and that image turned into a nightmare that haunted Alicia for ten years.

Lutiya remembered the time when he practiced swords with Yega again, and although the black-haired boy at that time didn't like to talk, he at least had a pair of kind eyes.

"What planted the seeds of hatred in Yega's heart was always the poisoned wine incident. If Dai Lin hadn't made such a big mistake, none of us would have faced the outcome we have now. However, that incident always makes me feel strange, did Dai Lin want to murder his mother, or did he want to murder his father?"

"What do you mean?" asked Alicia, puzzled.

According to what Dai Lin said at the scene, it can be inferred that Dai Lin's original intention was to poison the queen mother. But she knocked over her own wine glass and took her father's cup, and if the queen mother's cup was poisonous from the beginning, the person who drank the poison should still be the queen mother. ”

"In other words, the father's cup is poisoned wine?!" Alicia suddenly realized.

"Isn't this strange, obviously I want to poison my mother, why is the poisonous wine on my father's side. Luthiefa's brow furrowed, "The point is that Dai Lin took the wine that her father gave her and drank it without hesitation. So in other words, Dai Lin thinks that the cup of the queen mother is poisonous wine, so she is relieved to drink the cup that her father gave her, isn't it?"

"Could it be because Dai Lin was so nervous that she made the wrong poisoned cup?"

Or maybe it was because Dai Lin was crazy at the time, so she didn't know what she was doing. ”

Both of them fell into deep thought, no matter what, the poisoned alcohol incident sixteen years ago was indeed full of suspicions, but Dai Lin's words that she couldn't help saying at the scene were undoubtedly a confession of her poisoning, no matter who she wanted to poison, the crime of poisoning had become a fact, and she had accepted the punishment she deserved.

While Alicia and Luthieva were talking closely in the jungle, Daron and Cullen were resting in their own way, relaxing their sleepless bodies and exhausted spirits. Zazacha didn't go to sleep, he leaned against the trunk of a large tree, his eyes fixed on where Alicia was. He regretted last night's negligence and didn't want to repeat it again. As Alicia's most loyal hound, he could not tolerate another danger to the people he believed to follow.

It was precisely because of this that he was the only one of them who felt the evil aura coming from a distant place, and that aura suddenly appeared, like death, and gradually approached Alicia.

Immediately he ran alertly, and ran wildly without saying a word. At this moment, in his heart, there is only one thing on his mind, that is, no matter what, Alicia cannot be in danger in front of his eyes again, as long as he is there, no one can touch a single hair of Alicia. Dalong was the first to follow this reaction of Zazacha, he was woken up by Zazacha's movements during a nap, opened his eyes and saw Zazacha's back running hard, and without saying a word, he picked up his heavy sword and shouted "Get up!" and followed Zazacha in the same direction. In that direction, not far from the jungle, where Alicia and Luthieva were.

Luthieva was still talking to Alicia when she suddenly heard a resentful female voice from the depths of the jungle in front of her:

"Found it. ”

That voice feels like the backbone of a resentful soul, which is creepy.

A purple glow streaked through the air, silent but swift as a shadow, and in the blink of an eye, the ghost with black hair and white clothes had approached him. The short knife in her hand slashed at Lutiefa's face with the aura of death from the Yellow Spring.
