Three days later.

Grand Duke Truxi finally woke up, although the stab he was a few days ago was not a fatal injury, but he was old and in poor health, so many days could barely go to the ground.

As soon as Grand Duke Trixy woke up, his little lady Sicona sat on the edge of the bed and put her hand on his heart, pretending to be pitiful.

"Lord Grand Duke, people are so worried about you."

Beauty crying always makes people fall in love, coupled with Sikorna's deep skills, this set of combination punches down.

Grand Duke Troxie was directly fascinated, reached out and grabbed Sicona, and touched it gently.

"Sikona, you still care about me."

"Your Excellency, Grand Duke."

Suddenly, Sikuna let out a coquettish cry and was held in the arms of the Grand Duke.

Sicona's lowered face was full of smiles, but there was no trace of sweetness in her eyes, only sarcasm.

[Old thing, nothing works anymore, the color center is still so big. 】

Although she felt disgusting, Sicona still greeted her with a smile, and more than ten years have passed like this, and it is not bad for this time.

At this moment, a richly dressed woman walked in, and saw the Grand Duke holding Sicona in her eyes, and her eyes were full of disgust.

"Lord Grand Duke, are you alright?"

"Hmm."

The Grand Duke's attitude towards this original wife was extremely indifferent, and his wife was arranged by the king.

The Grand Duke knew what this meant, just watching.

After all, according to the Grand Duke's real family letter, "his" ancestor is a descendant of the king, and I am afraid that he will get tired of sitting on the Grand Duke's throne and want to rob him of the king's position.

[What a stupid king. 】

For this kind of move, the Grand Duke is very disdainful, hesitant to do things, has always cared about the so-called aristocratic reputation, for 200 years, the king has been trying to revoke the title of Grand Duke.

But he never had the opportunity to do so, and if it weren't for the fact that he wasn't really the king's heir, he really wanted to sit on the king's seat.

In the face of the Grand Duke's indifference, the original wife Ishfuna-Siya did not have the slightest surprise, and after visiting, she left directly.

The Grand Duke on the bed had no interest in Ishphna Siya since this, and gave Sicona on the bed an irritated slap.

"Lift me up."

was slapped by this suddenly, Sicona didn't dare to show dissatisfaction, she was just a woman forcibly recruited by the Grand Duke at will, without the slightest background.

Among all the Grand Duchesses, only the Grand Duchess has a background.

Commoners don't even deserve a surname, and only the trusted old butler can choose a surname for himself.

Except for the butler, only the noble nobles deserve the surname.

The slap woke up Sikorna, and she needed to lie dormant even more.

Under Sicona's service, as soon as Grand Duke Trixy lowered his head after putting on the noble clothes, he saw a red slap print on her face.

Pinching Sikorna's chin, she asked indifferently:

"Does it hurt?"

Her eyes were slightly red, and her eyelashes trembled slightly, and a tear slipped down, and she whispered:

"It doesn't hurt."

This answer is exactly what the Grand Duke wants to hear, after bowing his head for a moment.

Throwing off his clothes and walking out, he needed to find the man behind the ounce and let them see the Grand Duke's anger!

Inside the house, until the Grand Duke had been away for a long time, Sicona reached out in disgust and rubbed her face fiercely, directly until it was red.

The weak eyes disappeared, and all that was left was infinite hatred.

She could have had an ordinary life, but she was ruined by the Grand Duke, and in order to make the Grand Duke pay the price, she Sicona was willing to do anything.

These Grand Dukes' wives are worse than maids, they are beaten and scolded by the Grand Duke at will, and they need to be greeted with a smile every day.

And Sicona paid a heavy price in order to get the "favor" of the Grand Duke, because she can be a man.

The Grand Duke liked Sicona's appearance of being angry in his heart, but still flattering him.

This made him, who had lost his hormonal happiness, enjoy the spiritual pleasure.

————

The main hall.

The Grand Duke was inquiring about the situation of Attonne that day.

"Knight of Artonne, I remember that your patrol was not here, why did you come so soon that day?"

Smack-

Kneeling on his knees, his head pressed tightly to the ground, Artonne said with reproach:

"Back to the Grand Duke, the old butler Kevin found me that day and asked me to help him find someone, so when I first came out that day, I heard your voice."

On the nobleman's chair, the Grand Duke's eyes narrowed slightly, and he felt a faint pain in his abdomen, and glanced at the silver sword at Artonne's waist.

The tone that had meant to be harshly reprimanded softened a little.

"What are Kevin looking for you?"

"Lord Grand Duke, Kevin came back this time to investigate Motta's biological father, he asked me to help find him, and then Kevin wanted to kill him."

“...”

This time it will not be rectified by the Grand Duke.

"Who else knows about this."

The main hall was silent for a while, and for a long time Artonne said uncertainly:

"Maybe it's me."

"Oh, did you find someone, then?"

"Nope."

"You get out."

Attonne on the ground replicated the movement of that day like a bug, and looking at this pose, the Grand Duke seemed to see Kevin.

In the empty main hall, the Grand Duke muttered in a low voice:

"So, everything you said was a lie to me, I just wanted to come back and do it."

Completely unable to guess Kevin's purpose, and the Grand Duke felt a little dizzy.

————

Thatched huts.

The two sat opposite each other, and the old god Kevin was there listening to Attonne's words.

"The old butler is still so smart, he actually knows that the Grand Duke will look for me, but I don't understand, why do you want me to quit the main hall so humbly."

"Humble." Kevin sneered inexplicably, and then his face became kind again, and he said with a smile:

"A knight who is humble to the Grand Duke is what the Grand Duke wants to see, and if he is too sharp, he will be watched like Dougoff."

"Makes sense."

Many of them have been used by Kevin to weave a false net of information difference, and to do things for themselves with the help of them who do not know the truth.

In this way, he just stayed out of the way, and everything went so smoothly.

Captain of the Knights, Dogoff, Captain of the Knights, Atone, Butler Mota, Little Lady Sicona, and Flower-Picking Maid Yuni.

The five of them have their own goals, but their identities are difficult to associate, and they are located in a grand duke's castle, in a transparent net.

Now, all Kevin has to do is make the hemolysis ritual make sense, and all the foreshadowing he does is to build his own story.

A vengeful man, and this kind of thing, it is easy to arouse sympathy, as long as the matter of Sicona and Atonne happens to be discovered.

The Grand Duke will definitely call his heir back for the hemolysis ceremony.

Inside the grass hut, Kevin looked at Artonne with a caring gaze.

[Since you're guilty, let's go down and accompany the ounce, drag Sicona into the water, I think I shouldn't treat you badly.] 】
