On November 7, the nobles received good news.

The activities of the investigation team have come to an end, and reports and complaints will no longer be accepted for the time being, which means that the general investigation is coming to an end.

There is nothing more pleasant than this, the nobles have a feeling of seeing the blue sky through the clouds, and in the half month since the establishment of the investigation team, they are like frightened birds, and every day they are afraid that the members of the investigation team wearing black trench coats will appear in front of the door with their documents.

The turmoil finally passed, and it was said that the second prince and Ma Wei said hello.

In this investigation, countless officials were arrested, and it is said that the evidence can be piled up in the warehouses of the London docks, and the evidence is ironclad, and there is not a single unjust, false and wrongful conviction.

The newly appointed chief of the Scotland Yard police was suspended for investigation, and Inspector Richard, who was transferred from Belfast, temporarily replaced the position of the chief, not only city officials, but also the Royal Navy and the police underwent a major change.

There were not too many councillors affected, and the nobles gradually found that Ma Wei was thundering and raining, and they didn't dare to attack them directly, and only cared about catching the little minions below.

The darkness will always pass, and happy days should be celebrated, and the Earl of Austin hosted a banquet at his home, inviting all the Tory nobles, and it was the biggest dinner since the death of the Great Prince.

Hearing the news, Ma Wei understood that the opportunity had come.

The Royal Navy is fully prepared, and Rogin and Saka return to the Romanov Kingdom with half a channeling candle and a real pocket watch, and join Katerina, who is assembling troops on the border, and as soon as they receive the news, they will summon the kingdom of Baji.

Scotland Yard police, government officials, gangsters, Aurora, Transcendent creatures. All on standby.

Everything.

"Tonight at 7 o'clock, act according to the scheduled plan."

Finally, an order was issued from 9 Downing Street, and the cat was passed out.

The order was given in the morning, and after being sent out, Mavi took Unia to lunch at the bourbon restaurant across the street.

The restaurant has long recorded the Prime Minister's preferences, and even Yunia's has not forgotten that fresh desserts are prepared for Yunia's arrival at noon every day, and today is no exception.

"You know I don't like desserts."

Yunia frowned as she looked at the fruit tart, puffs, and spoon-sized mousse cake in front of her.

Godhead's interests and preferences are different from personality, and the things she is good at are also different, Personality Yunia has to brush her teeth and wash her face every day under the supervision of Ma Wei, she has to listen to stories and fall asleep, she will lose her temper without desserts, and she can't walk when she sees a dessert shop. She doesn't have any of these problems, she will change into pajamas, go to bed at a fixed time, get up early and take a shower before going to bed, and can fall asleep without listening to stories.

Occasionally, when Ma Wei gets up, she can be seen sitting at the dining table with a cup of coffee and reading the newspaper.

"Is that how you want her to come back?"

"Don't get me wrong." Ma Wei said lightly: "I just don't want to arouse the suspicion of others, she likes to eat snacks so much, if she suddenly doesn't eat them, it will inevitably make people feel more worried." ”

Hearing this, Yunia's frowning brows stretched slightly, but the snack in front of her still embarrassed her.

If you don't like it, you don't like it, the desserts in this restaurant are so sweet, the sugar is put like a death, and a thick layer of maple syrup is poured out, which looks good, but it's unpalatable.

But as Mavi said, she liked it.

God's body can't have problems eating, aside from pathological factors, taste is very important, and Ma Wei doesn't allow her to waste food, Yunia can only swallow hard.

Fortunately, the portion is not much, in the words of the restaurant, it is exquisite, and it can be eaten in a few bites.

"It's been a month."

Wiping his mouth, Mavi asked the waiter to bring hot tea and said to Yunia, "Your deal with her is today, isn't it?" ”

"Yes, it's today."

Yunia asked for an espresso, no sugar or milk: "So you don't have to worry, after tonight, she will wake up." ”

"How are you feeling this month?"

"What does life feel like?"

"What it's like to be human."

"Not bad."

Yunia recalled: "Eat, drink, have fun, don't worry about anything, it's gone in the blink of an eye." ”

Ma Wei smiled, as a goddess, of course Yunia doesn't have to work like an ordinary person, her role is more like a deterrent, such as nuclear weapons, standing there is enough to deter others, just pay regular maintenance fees.

"Do you think it's better to be a god or a man?"

Yunia looked around, they were sitting in the middle of the dining room, the huge space was empty of other guests, and the waiter stood in the distance, waiting for them to summon.

"Does it make a difference to me whether it is a man or a god?" Yunia asked.

"Absolutely."

Ma Wei took a sip of hot tea and said slowly, "My daughter is a human, but the goddess of truth is a god. ”

"Am I not a god in your eyes?"

"The answer is up to you."

"What do you want me to be?"

Ma Wei did not answer, rattle the bell called the waiter, took out two gold pounds and put them on the table, then picked up the bill, got up and walked out of the dining room.

Yunia hurriedly chased after her, she didn't ask, still thinking about the question thrown by Ma Wei.

Meanwhile, Kensington Palace.

"You're here again."

Looking at the visiting Baron Frederick in front of him, the second prince sighed, in recent days, Baron Frederick has been looking for him no less than a dozen times, and every time he says some nonsense that he doesn't want to ignore

Is there an end?

"Your Majesty, I have good news for you."

Baron Frederick said: "The operation of the investigation team has stopped. ”

"Well, I talked to Nicholas the day before yesterday, and it worked, didn't it?"

"Yes, it works." Baron Frederick nodded: "It's just that I don't understand, Your Majesty, why do you rely on Nicholas so much?" ”

"He's what I think of as prime minister."

"No, Your Majesty, you don't understand what I mean."

Shaking his head slowly, Baron Frederick said in a heavy tone: "I'm asking, His Royal Highness the Second Prince, whom I knew before, is intelligent, wise, resolute and steady, and has ambitions, but I can't find him." ”

"Have I changed?"

"A lot has changed, it makes me feel strange, the former Second Prince, His Royal Highness, will never entrust everything to Nicholas, not even a little precaution."

"You don't understand."

"Your Majesty, you can speak up, so I can understand what you are thinking."

Baron Frederick stepped forward and asked, "Don't you think the Kingdom of Windsor is not important?" ”

"I'm the king, how can I think the kingdom of Windsor isn't important?"

Spit out a puff of smoke, the second prince said faintly: "It is precisely because I value the kingdom and everything today that I have given power to Nicholas. ”

Baron Frederick cast a puzzled look.

"I ask you, is Nicholas an ordinary potions merchant?"

"He's definitely not ordinary."

"I also think so, a potions merchant who came all the way from the kingdom of Frederick, maintains a good relationship with transcendent beings, and he can get potion materials no matter how scarce he is, this kind of person, it is difficult to come with me if he doesn't succeed."

The second prince got up, sipped a cigar in his mouth, and led Baron Frederick to the bedroom, where he took off the portrait that hung on the wall, behind which was a safe hidden in the wall.

Opening the safe, the second prince took out a file and threw it to Baron Frederick, after reading it, Baron Frederick's eyes widened: "This is."

"The real dossier given by the investigators when they went to Frederick's kingdom."

The second prince said: "The file that Archbishop Brandon saw was forged by me, and this is the most authentic, and the investigators have been buried underground, including the local official who leaked the secrets. ”

"Your Majesty, where did you get this? This is conclusive evidence! The identity of Nicholas von Manstein was faked! ”

"There is no such thing as an impermeable wall, Frederick, and if you think a wall is impermeable, you must be using the wrong tools."

The second prince said expressionlessly: "William V is obviously not as cautious and meticulous as Nicholas, and the people he trusts are not so reliable, a meal of wine, plus a few hundred gold pounds, can be done." ”

"A few hundred gold pounds?" Baron Frederick was shocked: "The information that the eldest prince, the third prince, and the church have not been able to collect, Your Majesty, you only spent a few hundred gold pounds to get it?!" ”

"The investigator I sent out was not drunk, he gave three hundred gold pounds to the charity fundraiser of the wife of the mayor of Freiberg, got the opportunity to have dinner with the mayor, and after getting the mayor drunk, he stumbled upon the news that William V had asked him to forge his identity."

Baron Frederick's expression was very exciting, the second prince even hid this matter from him!

"Your Majesty, since you know Nicholas him"

"Without Nicholas, I couldn't have beaten Charles." The second prince interrupted: "Why do I dare to invest in the Manstein Potions Company and support Nicholas at all costs? Is it because I'm bold? No! It's because I'm confident! I know that Nicholas will win! ”

"He's my only hope of beating Charles!"

"Without him, I would be lying in the grave now!"

Approaching Baron Frederick, the second prince's cheek muscles twitched, and his eyes fiercely said, "I can't lose, do you understand?" I can't lose! I'm smarter than Charles, more daring than Andrew! I am the crown prince who deserves to sit in this position the most! ”

Baron Frederick didn't dare to breathe.

He underestimated the second prince.

Far underestimated.

"It turns out I won the bet."

The hideous expression subsided, and the second prince regained his calm appearance, took a puff of his cigar and said, "Nicholas did help me ascend to the throne, and now I am Shukri I, the real king." ”

"Your Majesty"

Baron Frederick wiped the cold sweat from his forehead: "After you became king, why didn't you report Nicholas to the church?" He's a pawn and you can throw it away when you run out! ”

"Report Nicholas? Am I crazy? It's a self-defeating trap! ”

The second prince sneered disdainfully: "Use your brain, Frederick!" Why did Nicholas come to London incognito? Is his target me? Of course not! His goal is the church! This is his fight against the Church of the Goddess of Fate! It's my! ”

"If Nicholas wins."

"If Nicholas wins, won't the Kingdom of Windsor need a king?"

The corners of his mouth rose, his smile became treacherous and cunning, and the second prince squinted his eyes and said: "No matter who wins or loses, the ending will not change, the Kingdom of Windsor needs a king, and no one knows this file or my plan." ”

Bringing a candle, the second prince lit the document and destroyed it completely.

"Everyone who knows about it is dead, and I'm just a king who has been kept in the dark."

Opening his mouth, Baron Frederick was dumbfounded.

"Your Majesty, I. . . I."

"Don't worry, Frederick, you and I are grasshoppers on a rope, without me, you won't be able to jump for long, I won't tell you, I'm afraid that you will leak your mouth, by the way, it will be more realistic. Remember to keep it secret, I have a hunch that Nicholas is about to act, and the decisive battle is near. ”

With a long sigh of relief, Baron Frederick's throat relaxed, calmed down a little, and asked with a little curiosity: "Your Majesty, how can you guarantee that Nicholas will definitely choose you?" ”

"Do you think if the Church of Truth wins?"

The second prince shrugged: "I can't think of a reason why Nicholas didn't choose me." ”

"First of all, I am Nicholas who took the throne, and I have a tacit understanding with him and have given him countless help."

"Secondly, I am obedient to Nicholas's decisions, and I am an obedient king, and I will never oppose him."

"Aren't these reasons enough to convince him?"

The church and the kingdom, the transcendent and the worldly, these causes and effects, entanglements, the second prince saw very clearly.

He knew that in the age of the gods, the royal power could not compete with the divine power.

In this case, he should be an idle king.

As the old saying goes, the opponent of the church is the church, the opponent of the transcendent is the transcendent, and as long as ordinary people don't go up, it's no problem to keep safe!

He is so obedient and sensible, Ma Wei has no reason to replace him at all!

Baron Frederick only then discovered that the second prince's mind and wisdom were no worse than those of the eldest prince and the fourth prince.

The sons born to Rhodes IV were not simple.

He looked away.

"Now you should understand why I'm totally rooting for Nicholas."

The second king flicked the ash of his cigarette and took a deep breath: "You're annoying me to death these days, Frederick, count me as a beg, don't bother me anymore if it's okay. Okay father-in-law? ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Baron Frederick smiled bitterly: "If you had told me this, I wouldn't have fought against Nicholas until now." ”

"It's you who didn't put yourself in the right position, whether it's the church or the devil, you can hold as many meals as you want, don't take yourself too seriously, without anyone, the world will work the same, seize the opportunity when it comes, even if you are covered in bruises, you can't let go."

"You're right, it's time for me to retire."

"There's a Jockey Club next Sunday, and you don't have an official position right now anyway, remember to accompany me to participate."

"Yes."

"Don't be bitter, with me, the Frederick family will not decline, Stewart will inherit your position, and a bright future awaits us!"
