In late May, Mosk.

Thunder rolled in the sky, thick dark clouds flew in from the north, enveloping the Mosk region.

At the sound of the whistle, a train coming from the direction of St. Petersburg stopped at Mosk Central Station, the doors opened, and an orange cat with a free ride scurried into the platform, and disappeared into the crowd in the blink of an eye.

Ten minutes later....

Mavi, who was teaching the monks, saw Fat Orange, who had been rushing back from Petersburg overnight.

At the critical moment, Fat Orange returned in person, something must have happened, Ma Wei stopped lecturing and took it to a quiet room.

"The aristocratic faction and the Freedom Society have hooked up."

Fat Orange crouched in front of the fireplace, close to the warm heat source, and his voice was mixed with a hint of solemnity: "It seems that the aristocratic faction wants to escape to the United States of Citi, and now Finn Drost is hiding in a farm in the name of Duke Yinvanovich, I know the exact address." ”

In the case of Finn Drost, Mavi had already come up with an answer through a real pocket watch, which was completely consistent with the information provided by Fat Orange, so Mavi was not surprised.

"If it's just Finn Drost, I'm afraid I can't let you return to Mosk from Petersburg...."Mavi knows Fat Orange's temper very well: "Say, what else is there besides the Freedom Society?" ”

“.......”

Fat Orange hesitated for a moment, his tail swept around in front of the fireplace, and his mood was not settled: "Paul I is dead." ”

"What?"

Ma Wei never thought that Fat Orange would bring the news of the death of Paul I, and he was a little incredulous: "Archbishop Henry killed the king? ”

"No, Paul I .... It's suicidal, probably. "He wrote an edict and hung it around Korulu's neck to send him out of the Winter Palace, and when I realized that the situation was not right, I went to check it.... A puddle of blood was found in his bedroom that had not yet had time to be disposed of. ”

"I searched the entire Winter Palace, and finally found his body in the pile of ice in the basement, shot in the side of the head, and from the position where the shot was fired, it was probably a suicide."

“.......”

"And his corpse is strange, obviously without the breath of life, but with his eyes open, like... A living dead must have been manipulated by the Wisdom Cult. ”

"Wait, wait...."

The impact was too great, and Ma Wei needed to slow down, he rubbed his swollen head, and followed the information given by Fat Orange and said: "Paul I committed suicide? Why did he kill himself? What is the content of the edict? ”

No matter how you look at it, Archbishop Henry has no reason why he had to kill Paul I, so Mavi believes that Paul I committed suicide, but the question is the reason why Paul I committed suicide.... and what the Cult of Wisdom did to him.

"But what Lulu brought out was an edict of abdication." Fat Orange's expression was serious, not at all like a joke: "Paul I passed the throne to his sister, Katerina. ”

Ma Wei didn't know what to say.

He believed that the information provided by Fat Orange was correct, if the information was wrong, Fat Orange would never have used such a firm tone, it had always been very reliable, much more reliable than Xiao Hei, which was why Ma Wei agreed that it would go to Petersburg alone to develop its power.

【Father Ma Wei】 【】

And Kelulu, who brought the edict, was a spy who had been ambushed by Paul I's side a few months ago, and it monitored Paul I's every move and daily life, and even knew what Paul I ate at noon and squatted in the toilet for a few minutes.

But Lulu said that the edict was written by Paul I himself, and that would not be wrong.

Even so....

The news that Paul I had passed the throne to Katerina still shocked Mavi.

In order to compete for the throne, the two sisters and brothers have been intriguing for more than a day or two, although neither Paul I nor Katerina used assassination to kill each other, but they are at odds with each other...

The whole Romanov kingdom knew about it.

What was it that made Paul I decide to pass the throne to Katerina?

For the dignity of the royal family?

Perhaps....

Mavi couldn't find any other explanation.

"In order to test the aristocratic faction, I gave the edict to Duke Yovanovich, and Finn Drost wanted him to make the edict public." Fat Orange licked his lips, paused, and asked, "Do you want to tell Katerina about this?" ”

“.... It can't be hidden, and sooner or later Katerina will know that her brother has committed suicide. Mavi took a deep breath and decided to go to the Kremlin: "What's more, she has the right to know, Paul I.... It's her last relative, let's go. ”

Picking up the fat orange, Ma Wei asked the communication to temporarily take his place, continued to teach the believers, and took the fat orange himself and entered the palace complex next door unimpeded.

In the afternoon, Katerina was still dealing with government affairs, and after being briefed by Marusa, she met with Mavi and Fat Orange.

"Father, I'm busy, I'll just talk about something."

Katerina sat among the pages of a book, reading the pages and signing the things she had agreed to, so busy that she didn't even have time to sip her tea.

"Your Highness, I have just received news that your younger brother, His Majesty King Paul I, shot himself in the Winter Palace." Ma Wei spoke quickly without a pause: "Before he committed suicide, he drafted an edict of abdication and passed the throne to you. ”

The dancing quill froze for a moment, the ink soaked the paper, and after a slight pause, Katerina finished signing.

She put the document aside, picked up a new one, and asked without raising her head, "Is the news true?" ”

"Should... There can be no mistake. ”

"Yes, that's uncertain?"

"Your Highness, I should have said that Paul I's suicide has yet to be confirmed, but his death is true, Fat Orange has already seen your brother's body in the basement of the Winter Palace."

"Where is the edict of abdication?"

“.... In the hands of Duke Yovanovich, the fat orange was not brought back. ”

"There was no edict, no corpse was seen, and no news of the king's death was heard.... Father, don't tell me this uncertain news in the future. Katerina still didn't look up, she had been staring at the document in front of her for a long time, which didn't match the reading speed of a few seconds when Mavi first entered the door.

She still signed the paperwork.

【Father Ma Wei】 【】

"Your Highness, the edict of abdication was brought out by Ke Lulu, you.... Alas. ”

Shaking his head, Mavi said no more, and left the study with Fat Orange in his arms, and as the door closed, the quill signed by Katerina gradually stopped.

She sat silent, silent, and after some time, she suddenly pushed all the papers to the ground in a frenzy.

Hearing a noise from the house, Marusa was about to push the door and go in to check when Ma Wei stopped her: "Let her be alone and quiet." ”

There was a sound of smashing in the room, and several guards who heard the sound gathered and looked at Mavi and Marusa at the door with blank expressions.

After more than ten minutes, the sound in the house gradually subsided, and after a while....

Click.

The door opened from the inside, and Katerina's eyes were red, and her gaze swept over the people standing in the corridor, and her hoarse voice was mixed with a terrifying rage: "Call Onufri, Makarov, and Jorugin, and they will come to me!" ”

"It's... Be! ”

The guards had never seen Katerina like this, and they almost ran away.

"Father."

“.... In, Your Highness. ”

"How sure are you?"

"I'm afraid now is not a good opportunity to attack the royal capital.... Your Highness. Ma Wei persuaded him: "You should wait for the king's abdication edict to be issued, and then enter the royal capital in the name of justice." ”

"Didn't the aristocratic faction already get the king's edict of abdication?" Katerina's face was as cold as a piece of ice: "Those murderers who killed my brother.... I'm going to let them die! ”

"Your Highness, you are on the verge of losing control."

"I'm calm, Father."

Katerina glanced at Mavi: "But I must be angry now, this is politics, and now is the best opportunity to overthrow the Wisdom God Cult...."

With her palms clenched, Katerina said word by word: "I want to use Paul's death to stir up the anger of the people, only in this way can we take control of the Romanov Kingdom as quickly as possible!" ”

Ma Wei frowned: "Aren't you sad?" Paul I is your last relative...."

"I'm sad, my heart hurts, it's like it's going to crack...."

Katerina looked at the dark clouds outside the window and said in a cold voice: "But I must hide my emotions, the Romanovs do not need an emotional king, I must be like a stone and use everything that can be used." ”

"It is often said that a woman's heart is the most vicious, a thousand times more vicious than a man.... This is good. ”

"I want people who say this to understand that women are more terrible than they think!"
