Yin Leia won the championship at the tournament, and as the only female champion in history, it should have caused an unprecedented wave of heated discussion.

However, now everyone's attention was drawn to the death of Edward II, and the streets and alleys from the nobles to the commoners were discussing the matter.

It was not without the emperor's assassination before, and just a few years earlier Edward II had experienced a palace coup against him.

However, being poisoned in front of tens of thousands of people like this, and the cup of poisoned wine was brought by his own son, the drama of this was immediately filled.

In addition, Edward II revealed before his death that the Wing Clan was about to invade the continent of Brattis, which also caused an uproar, and then Edward II also suggested that the elven and dwarven kingdoms had fallen to those invaders.

His speech before his death was not long, but the content in it was unusually rich, and any word he could make the mainland shake, but His Majesty the Emperor's later words were gone before he could say them.

The people of the royal capital are now debating this, and some believe that all this is just Edward II's imagination.

He concocted excuses to wage war against elves and dwarves to accomplish what the emperors of the empire had failed to accomplish in order to satisfy his pathetic vanity.

Others were convinced that Edward II's words were true, that the centuries-old peace was about to be broken, and that a strong enemy was about to attack.

In contrast, the nobles were more concerned about the choice of the next emperor of the empire, but there was not much suspense on this issue, although Edward II died very suddenly, but before his death had already decided on his heir - his eldest son Gals.

Five years earlier, Edward II had Garth begin to participate in the Imperial Council, sitting on the sidelines.

Last year, Edward II simply asked his eldest son to attend the Imperial Council instead of him to handle daily affairs.

And he himself often disappeared for a month or two, praying to the goddess of life with the priests of Conelia.

Several ministers of the imperial court have a clear understanding of the temperament of this prince, and the previous cooperation between the two sides is relatively pleasant, so they also support Garth to inherit the throne.

The Council even set the time for the coronation, and in two days' time, Garth would be able to put on the crown and sit on the bone seat on which his father had sit.

When he thought of this, Garth's heart was also stirred, but because Edward II had just been poisoned, he didn't show too much excitement to the outside world, just handled the work at hand meticulously as usual.

This also made him more praised by the Imperial Council, in fact, compared to Edward II, who had an increasingly eccentric personality and worshipped the goddess of life, the nobles of the royal capital were generally more optimistic about the future new emperor.

He was clearly better on than his father.

However, at this time, there was one person in Lionheart Castle who didn't care about these topics that were being discussed at the moment, and he only cared about one thing - who poisoned the emperor of the empire.

In the afternoon, the chief of the guard came to the inn where Miss Rabbit was staying, and had a private conversation with the girl.

Lord Duron was most concerned about two questions, the first was whether Yin Leia had noticed any suspicious people in the tournament today.

The female lord thought for a while and said truthfully, "I basically put all my energy into the battle in the morning, and I didn't pay much attention to things outside the tournament after that. ”

"I noticed that you were a little absent-minded while you were waiting for the reward, can you tell me what you were thinking at the time?"

"Oh, I'm thinking about His Majesty's plan to seal the crab horn for me." Yin Leia said.

"But you didn't seem particularly happy at the time."

"Because with who I am now and the family behind me, it's obviously difficult to really rule that harbor.

"And Cape Crab is too far away from my previous territory, one is in the easternmost east of the empire, and the other is in the westernmost part, and it will take more than half a year just to run." Miss Rabbit explained.

"Your Majesty also takes into account what you said, so it seems that he wants you and His Highness Allister to ......"

"Be friends?" Miss Rabbit said with a serious expression, "I will definitely obey Your Majesty's last wishes." ”

Duren looked at the girl who was pretending to be stupid, in fact, he didn't understand why the latter was so resistant to this marriage, from the identities and backgrounds of the two, Yin Leiya was undoubtedly the one who took advantage.

However, this question should not have much to do with what he was trying to investigate, and Edward II was dead.

Although His Majesty hinted very clearly before he died, he was about to take the last step to directly pick it out, but if he didn't say it, he didn't say it, and now even if Yin Leiya is willing, this marriage will be ruined, and there is no point in dwelling on it any longer.

The chief of the guard stopped and asked the second and most important question of the trip.

"What did Your Majesty say to you before you died?"

"Huh?" Miss Rabbit was stunned when she heard this, "Did Your Majesty tell me anything?" ”

Duren was carefully observing the expression on the girl's face, and seeing that her consternation did not seem to be a fake, he said.

"Your Majesty, the closest person to him before his death was you, except me. And when I hugged His Majesty, he was speechless, but I saw that he seemed to be saying something in your ear......

"Your Majesty has always admired you, and has praised you more than once in front of others, and it is possible that he would have confessed his last words to you under those circumstances.

"Well, when you say that, I also remember that His Majesty's lips did seem to move when he fell on me, but the voice was so quiet, and I was very flustered at that moment, so I didn't hear anything."

"Is that so," Duren frowned, "can you think about it again, because this matter is important, and may help us catch the murderer and avenge His Majesty." ”

The female lord pondered for a while when she heard this, and finally shook her head and said, "No, I really don't know what Your Majesty was talking about at that time, but most people are probably calling for help in that situation, didn't Your Majesty call for Priest Conelia to save him before." ”

"Your guess is also plausible." The head of the imperial guard looked a little disappointed, but he still said politely, "Thank you, I've finished asking all my questions, and congratulations on becoming the champion of this tournament." ”

"Thanks, I wonder if I can ask a question as well?" The female lord said cautiously, "Although it may be a little inappropriate, but that reward ...... Can it still count? ”

“…………”

After a moment, Du Lun nodded, "Of course, the rewards of the tournament are all given by His Majesty on behalf of the Empire, and although His Majesty is no longer there, his promise is still valid."

"It's just that if you want to get the money and land in the end, you will have to wait until the new emperor is crowned, but it should be soon, I heard that the royal council has set the coronation date of the prince of Garth in two days."
