The snow was vast, the snow was falling, and in the ice field, a group of figures loomed through the wind and snow.

Mortally wounded, Karl sat in the chariot, with Amber himself driving the cart and hundreds of guards escorting the two of them back to Ice Wolf Castle.

"Just going back to Ice Wolf Castle is victory." Karl covered his wound and sat up with difficulty, but his gaze was extremely resolute, "When I gather my forces and ask Mr. Daurson for some strategies, I must destroy the Red Pavilion, recapture the refining remnants, and resurrect my mother!" ”

Amber drove the car without saying a word, frowning as if thoughtful.

The chariot was rolling around, and the shadow of Ice Wolf Castle gradually appeared in front of it. Towering walls, thick gates, and guards.

Wait, what are they doing here?

Carl stood up in the car and shouted, "I, Carl, Prince of Ice Wolf Castle, open the door for me!" ”

The closed gates stood still, but more guards appeared on the walls, staring at Karl warily, dozens of crossbows poking out of the shooting holes.

The gates were closed, and there was a dead silence all around. Carl's face became more and more ugly, "Are you all blind?" Don't even recognize me? ”

"I really don't recognize it." A young and handsome young man on the city wall stood up with his head held high, "I am the Prince of Ice Wolf Castle: Karl. Who are you that dare to use my name? ”

Carl looked at the man who looked like him in astonishment, and his mind went blank for a moment. Instead, the leader of the guards beside him pointed to the defenders on the city wall and scolded: "Are you all blind? Even which is Prince Karl ......"

Bang!

Dozens of arrows were fired at the same time, instantly turning him into a hedgehog.

The majestic and cold voice of the young man came from the city wall, "The rebels, pretending to be the identity of this prince, dare to be so noisy. Kill! ”

Before Karl could reply, ten thousand arrows were fired from the city wall. Those guards had already taken off their guard when they saw the Ice Wolf Castle, how could they have thought of such treatment, and most of them were shot dead in an instant.

The gates rumbled open. The trumpets sounded, and two thousand cavalry rushed out in a hula and slashed at the guards.

"You bastards, how dare you betray me!" Karl endured the sharp pain of his wound and drew his sword and pointed at the cavalry around him. But the cavalry was so focused on assassinating the Guards that no one even looked up at him.

In just a few minutes, the hundred-strong Guards had been slaughtered. Blood flowed in the snow, but Carl's heart was colder than that. In the snowstorm, he saw the young figure approaching him on a landing bird under the escort of the guards.

"You, you traitor!" Karl scolded viciously, "You wait for me, I'll go to Xuedu, I'm going to find the clan elders to quell the rebellion, I'm going to ...... you"

"Carl ......," Amber's soft voice sounded behind him.

Immediately afterward, a tingling pain came from Karl's waist.

He threw off the chariot with a muffled thud, unable to believe that his beloved Amber had given him a backstab!

Amber looked at the young man and cried bitterly, "Your Highness Karl, this traitor has coerced me, and he wants to use me to deceive the trust of the guards......"

Carl's throat was blocked with blood and he could only make a grunting sound. He just watched the woman and threw himself into the young man's arms.

He suddenly understood something.

I thought I would be different from the dim-witted father, but I didn't expect to lose to beauty in the end.

What about Mr. Daurson, why didn't he come to my rescue, where did he go...... Carl's eyes blurred and his eyes darkened. At the end of his life, it was as if he heard his mother's call, and Dawson was looking at him kindly, inviting him to embark on his journey home to another world.

.

By the time Buxiao arrived at the puppet village, the battle was over.

Tekochen and Sylvie have been killed, a large number of soldiers have surrendered, and the only regret is that Karl and Amber have fled first, which makes Finks, who has been in charge of monitoring the puppet village, very frightened.

Fortunately, he didn't laugh at the overall evaluation, "It's better than I expected." ”

It was also a relief to Finks.

Lydia patted Bella and Black Snow on the back, "Thanks to them, they pretended to be scouts and entered the city, and I didn't expect it." ”

Bella smiled heartily, "How can you not thank Hei Ningxue for resisting the attack of the Phantom Thunder Spear. ”

"That's a lot to thank you for." Lydia said, "If she hadn't discovered Tkechen's spy, we wouldn't have come up with a plan for the future." ”

Hei Ningxue saluted the corner of her skirt, "If you two talk like this, I will get carried away." ”

"Grista," Buxiao said suddenly, "are you relieved now?" ”

Grista ?

Hei Ningxue looked behind her who was not smiling suspiciously, and the pretty girl was looking at her excitedly.

"You...... What are you here for? Hei Ningxue just asked, and continued to answer herself, "Are you worried that I will be taken out and secretly executed, so come and see?" Your mind is too active, and the Red Pavilion will kill me, just throw a stone in the quarry and crush me to death. ”

Glista looked ashamed, "Sorry, we're just a little worried......"

"You just said 'we'?" Hei Ningxue immediately found the point, "Could it be that this crazy girl Lena also came here secretly?" ”

Seeing her appearance a little angry, Glista quickly explained: "Sister Lena came here as a medical soldier with other support troops, and I am the only one...... Sneaked over. ”

Of course, the consequence of her sneaking over like this was that she was arrested by Buxiao as soon as she arrived at the camp.

"I did what I promised, but what did you promise?" A cold voice sounded beside him.

Hei Ningxue's expression became flustered, "What did you promise?" ”

Glista lowered her head, "Don't laugh at Lord Buxiao, the population of Manniu Town is getting more and more now, and there is a need for someone who is good at communication to receive visitors, so he wants me to be the reception supervisor." ”

Hei Ningxue sighed and chuckled, "Then congratulations on getting a good job." It's just that it's too late to celebrate, and since you're here, there's something I still have to trouble you to do. ”

"Oh?" Glista wondered, "I will do my best to do what you command." ”

"Ice Wolf Castle is close at hand, and Lord Buxiao has also brought siege equipment, I want you to take them to the 'delivery site' to prepare." Hei Ningxue peeked at the expression of not smiling, but there was no expression on that cold poker face.

"What is that 'delivery yard' you are talking about?" Lydia asked.

Hei Ningxue stretched out her finger to her lips, "It's a secret, the fewer people who know, the better." ”

Lydia didn't smile.

Bu smiled and thought for a moment, "Finks, come with her." ”

Finks didn't want to have anything to do with the people of Black Snow, but because he accidentally let go of Carl and his party this time, he was afraid of causing displeasure, so he hurriedly took the order and retreated with Glista.

"With such careful preparations, I'm afraid that Karl kid can only surrender obediently." Hei Ningxue said with a smile.

"The dead will not surrender." Don't smile and say indifferently.

What do you mean?

The cheerful expressions on Lydia and Hei Ningxue's faces instantly became hesitant, and the two of them even looked at each other, but neither of them understood why they didn't laugh and thought that Carl was dead.

Buxiao explained indifferently: "Two pieces of evidence: First, four days ago, Carl had returned to Ice Wolf Castle. ”

"How is that possible?" Lydia frowned, "We just arrived here four days ago. ”

Hei Ningxue had already reacted, "If there was already a 'Carl' who returned to Ice Wolf Castle four days ago, then between the 'Carl' we saw and that Carl, there must be one that is fake. ”

Buxiao nodded, "Second, when Carl went back, he also brought a few new 'national teachers'. ”

Hei Ningxue seemed to understand something: "Let me guess, are there exactly four of them, and they are all young women?" ”

"Four?" Lydia slapped her face, "The Council of Four, the one Rose is staring at?" At this moment, she finally understood what was going on in this bureau.

As Black Snow said: Rose Gaze needs to obtain a stronghold in order to get revenge.

But they all got one thing wrong: their target was never the inconspicuous "Wild Cow Town" in the Scarlet Leaf Forest, but - "Ice Wolf Castle"!

The Council of Four took advantage of Carl's revenge on Black Snow and instigated Carl to go to war against the Red Pavilion. is to create contradictions, weaken his power, and send people to fake his identity in the chaos and occupy the Ice Wolf Castle.

"So they're going to try to get Carl to kill Hei Ningxue and Linda, and let us kill Tekochen and the two former generals, so that no one in the entire Ice Wolf Castle can oppose this fake 'Carl'." Lydia exclaimed, "Except for that Daurson who pretended to be dead......"

But it immediately occurred to her that a person who had already claimed to be dead would not know anything if he died again.

"Don't laugh at your lordship, secret report." A herald hurriedly handed over a lead pipe.

Nodding after reading it, "The third evidence is here: Amber went back to be a princess." ”

"Amber, the ruthless girl?" A spirit suddenly flashed in Hei Ningxue's mind, "Could it be that she is the inner response of ...... 'Rose Gaze'?" ”

Looking at Buxiao and nodding slightly, an unsolved case that had plagued Hei Ningxue for a long time finally revealed his eyebrows:

Who directed Moretto's death?

Moretto was a cowardly and incompetent, and Daurson arranged for him to take refuge in the city in order to give him a way to live. Even if Lady Feather Spirit died, Daurson would not pin his hope of revenge on Moretto, let alone send someone to inform Lady Feather Spirit's death, which eventually led to Moretto's suicide.

But if Amber is the "rose-gazing" person, then there is a reasonable explanation for all this:

Only Amber can trick Dalson's trust and pass on the news of Feather's death to Moretto. It is believed that even if Moretto does not commit suicide on the spot, she has already arranged for a backhand to ensure that Moretto dies. And her purpose is to trigger a war between the Ice Wolf Castle and the Red Pavilion.

When Carl returned, she instigated Carl to avenge his mother and brother, used the war to weaken the strength of the Ice Wolf King's cronies, and tricked Carl, the sole heir of the Ice Wolf Castle, out of the castle.

In several battles, she appears to be helping Carl, but in fact she is draining several generals and royal guards loyal to Carl. Even the black stone pattern that was in the way was angered by her words after losing its usefulness, and finally died under Lydia's gun.

That's why, it wasn't until Karl returned to Ice Wolf Castle alone that she stopped holding back and took out the stupid prince with a single sword.

Hei Ningxue saluted to Buxiao, "If it weren't for your guidance, I wouldn't know who my opponent was until I died." ”

Buxiao groaned: "It's not over yet, everything is not conclusive." ”
