Chapter 216: Intentions Unclear

It's just that Hearst has been completely blinded by his resentment towards Li Zijun at this stage, and he actually didn't realize that the sixth prince had become more and more dissatisfied with him. He also naively thought that the sixth prince did this to punish himself for his bad deeds, and he didn't realize that the sixth prince's butcher's knife was getting closer and closer to him!

Seeing Hearst pampered and arrogant, ignoring his warnings, the dissatisfaction in the hearts of the six princes also rose to the limit. Although he didn't show too much of a manifestation, he was still smelled of danger by Olier, who knew him well.

Back then, it was Olier who recommended Hearst to the sixth prince, and he couldn't bear to see Hirst go to a dead end like this, of course, in order to be able to retain Hirst, a rare talent, for the sixth prince, he took a hand to pull Hirst at such a critical moment.

The sixth prince understood that his uncle had no selfish motives in doing this, and the more reason was for himself, although he was slightly unhappy in his heart, he still reluctantly accepted this result. At this time, hearing his uncle make this promise to him, the slightest concern in his heart disappeared, and he nodded and stopped worrying about this matter with Hirst.

"Uncle, did you find anything from the investigation over there?" The sixth prince turned his attention back to the loss of the 'Blood Jade Ruyi'.

Oliel can be said to have worked hard for the six princes, he selected some credible, reliable, and clever characters among his disciples and grandchildren, and used them as a team to help the six princes build an invisible and powerful team.

As a veteran sword saint of the Dongyu Empire, the people who can become his disciples and grandchildren, in addition to their own outstanding talents, also need to have a certain family background, otherwise they may not even be able to see Oliel's face at first! The information of these people is of course more accurate than those intelligence officers under Hirst. And because they are from the same division, the level of trust between them is incomparable to that of those teams that are almost completely tied together by interests!

The sixth prince was not at ease about handing over such a somewhat special team to someone else, in fact, except for Olier, there was almost no one who could control this liliang.

Olier actually didn't want to involve himself too much in the worldly battles, his greatest pleasure was to practice martial arts, and it was only for the sake of the sixth prince that he had to reluctantly act as the controller of this team for the time being.

Fortunately, the sixth prince didn't want to disturb Olier's cultivation too much, and ordinary trivial things rarely bothered him, and Oliel could enjoy a peaceful life most of the time.

It's just that the loss of 'Blood Jade Ruyi' this time is too important for a royal child like the sixth prince who has the right to inherit, so he asked Olier to start investigating the matter, which is why the sixth prince asked.

"As Hearst said, Virgil was very tightly guarded about it, but luckily some of my kids showed up at that ball, and I got some news from that. It's just that none of them noticed the situation around Lucy, and they couldn't find out who took the 'Blood Jade Ruyi' away. ”

"I recorded the general scene of the ball through their memories, I didn't find anything, can you see if you find anything?" said Oliel as he took out a stack of papers from the spatial ring and handed it to the sixth prince.

The sixth prince carefully looked through the records, and he could not find anything suspicious.

"Uncle, do you think the things recorded here are too normal!" the sixth prince shook the pile of paper in his hand and gently put it on the table.

"Is there any problem?" Oliel asked puzzled, not understanding what the sixth prince really meant.

"Although there are many people attending the ball, strictly speaking, there are almost no strangers at the ball, and the so-called local nobles are also some of the characters we are familiar with. Although I dare not say that I am familiar with everyone who appears at the ball, based on my superficial knowledge of them, I also think that none of them would dare to touch the 'Blood Jade Ruyi'. I'm sure you'll agree with me as well?"

Hearing the words of the sixth prince, Oliel also nodded slightly.

"The other is those servants in the Dalton Mansion, none of them even entered the mansion within three years, all of them are old people in the mansion, not only do these people not have the guts, they are even more unlikely to have the strength to approach the 'Blood Jade Ruyi' who is surrounded by a group of Ouchi guards."

"It's all so normal, so normal that it makes me feel as if it was arranged in advance, it's too much like a bureau! What do you think?" asked the sixth prince as he looked at Oliel with a frown.

"Hearing you say that, I also feel that something is wrong! It's just that if all this is a bureau as you say, then generally speaking, the person who set up the bureau usually leaves a clue, and the purpose is naturally to lead the investigator astray, so that it is more conducive to his own escape. But in this case, the bureau setter did not leave any clues, which made everyone who entered and exited the Dalton Mansion at the dance party that day a suspect, in such a situation, how could the bureau setter leave safely with the 'Blood Jade Ruyi'?" Oriel looked at the sixth prince with a puzzled face, and asked puzzled.

"Could it be that this person's real goal is not 'Blood Jade Ruyi'?" The sixth prince felt as if he had caught something, but after thinking about it, it seemed that there was nothing, and for a while, he was also a little confused.

"Abraham, could the person you said was trying to prevent Marianne's mother and daughter from entering the palace through the charge of 'blood jade ruyi' being lost?" said Oliel after a moment's thought.

That's pretty much the first reaction of almost everyone who hears about it. But if you continue to think about it, this reason is a bit far-fetched. ”

"If my judgment is correct, my father has given up on the idea of taking Marianne into the palace. ”

"First of all, my father's enthusiasm for Marianne has declined considerably. During this time, the frequency of meetings between the father and Marianne increased, but the time they spent alone together continued to decrease. According to the intelligence, the purpose of my father's meeting with Marianne was more to see the situation of my 'little sister'. ”

"Secondly, Marianne gave birth to a daughter out of wedlock, if a person like her can enter the palace, it will definitely be a scandal for the Dongyu royal family, which is why the royal family members continue to put pressure on their father. In the face of the overwhelming opposition, I think that even my father would not dare to make a decision lightly, and he would definitely reconsider his original idea. ”

"Zuihou, some of Marianne's own behaviors are also becoming more and more unpleasant to her father, she takes her daughter to participate in various balls, which has seriously violated the principle of keeping a low profile among the royal family, which is also the most fundamental reason for the loss of 'Blood Jade Ruyi'! In addition, she also accepted expensive gifts behind her father's back, and secretly helped people in the name of her father. I know all these things, and my father knows all about them!"

"In such a situation, even if there is no 'Blood Jade Ruyi' loss, Marianne has completely lost the possibility of entering the palace!"

"It's been a few days since the 'Blood Jade Ruyi' was lost, and during this time, the elite of Filano City's criminal investigation has exhausted, but until today, they have not found any valuable information and clues. That is to say, Jihua was extremely meticulous in stealing the 'Blood Jade Ruyi', and it was impossible for such a person to be ignorant of the situation I had just mentioned, and to have such a big lack of information! This also proved from another point that his purpose in stealing the 'Blood Jade Ruyi' was never to stop Marianne, at least this was not his only purpose!" The sixth prince said very firmly.

"If his target wasn't Marianne, then what was he stealing the 'Blood Jade Ruyi' for?"

"Could it be Edlaide?At the moment, he is most likely the only beneficiary of this matter, could it be that he planned this?" asked Oliel as he looked at the sixth prince with a gloomy face.

Hearing Olier's question, the sixth prince's face sank, and he hesitated for a long time before speaking again.

"If the person who set up this game is Charity, he must not only have extraordinary courage and wisdom, but also have a deep understanding of the character of every key person in the game, including his father! Not only that, but he also needs to have a huge underground shili as a support, so as to create today's situation. ”

"I do not doubt Ed's courage and wisdom, and I even think that he can do better than the man when all the necessary conditions are met! His outstanding record in repelling the armies of Monlin and the Turk-Hungarian Empire in succession has made me aware of his almost monstrous strategy. The sneak attack on Meigong Mountain made him the most daring person in the Youlan Continent! Even if I can still persist in fighting in Wimbledon at this moment, I am afraid that it is already a great luck! I dare not think that one day I can force Monlin and the Turk-Hungarian Empire to take the initiative to sue for peace with us with a cart full of treasures!"

"I believe that even the eldest brother, including the eldest brother, will not have any objection to the title of Ed's 'Dongyu Military God'!"

"If Ed's ability stops there, I don't really take him too seriously, after all, the vast majority of famous generals will always have problems of one kind or another in dealing with internal affairs, and often they will make a mistake that has been repeated for thousands of years, that is, they are greedy for military power and are reluctant to let go of everything in their hands. In times of war, there is nothing wrong with what they have done, but in times of peace, this behavior of theirs has become the greatest fear of the leaders! This is also the most fundamental reason why famous generals will gradually fade out of people's sight and be hidden in the snow in peacetime! Some famous generals will even be punished on trumped-up charges, and Zuihou will end up in a different place and have their families and clans wiped out!"

"But what I never expected was that Ed offered to give up military power, and what made me even more incredible was that he offered to continue as the sheriff of Firano, and the reason was even more ridiculous. ”

"Many people think that charity is too little, but I think it is a sign of his maturity! In doing so, he not only alleviated his father's fears, but also wisely drew himself out of the ranks of Dongwoo's heirs, and made us princes lower their guard against him! ”

"It's just that Ed doesn't have that thorough understanding of the key people involved in the 'Blood Jade Ruyi' matter. On top of that, he doesn't have that much underground shili yet!"
