my wife is a consul

Chapter 306 New Questions

After lighting a cigar, Lu Ming looked at a small notebook in his hand, slowly sketching with a pen.

Above are several names, members of the Housesburg family and some of those involved.

In fact, thinking about it carefully, the goal of Frey's death was certainly not to frame himself.

None of the opponents who were fighting with him dared to commit such a shocking crime just to frame himself.

This is a thousand times more serious than shooting a few border commissioners. After all, the border commissioners are all civilians. It's just a coincidence that they have a political label at a specific time period.

But the prince of the royal family, no matter how marginalized the prince is, the storm caused by his assassination will swallow all the people and things involved.

Unfortunately for me, I was right in the center of the storm.

Those so-called enemies of mine, such as the Hu family, even their backer, Earl Chaxon, have a completely different status from the Duke of Housesburg. It is almost impossible to say that they killed a prince to frame him. .

It can only be said that Frey's death must have been premeditated. He left his territory and came to Bucks City, which happened to give the person or force who wanted to get rid of him an excellent opportunity.

Although the shooting made this shocking case the focus of the world's attention, in fact, it has become the most commonly used method to get rid of political enemies in modern society.

Because using traditional methods, such as buying people around you to poison or the like, with the development of science and technology, it has become difficult to really cheat the world.

Moreover, this kind of planning is time-consuming and labor-intensive, involving too many people. Once it is found that the death is abnormal, it is easy to follow the clues to find out the clues of the mastermind behind the scenes.

But shooting is different. The murderer can die on the spot, disappear without a trace, or even become a mentally ill patient.

The three gunmen who assassinated Frey were shot to death in the street, leaving no one alive.

"Long live the glory of the people of Houseville!" one gunman chanted as he opened fire on Frey.

Houseville was once the territory of the Duke of Housesburg, a small peninsula area with a population of several 10 in the southeast of the empire, where gangsters were prevalent, and it was also a distribution center for new drugs.

The largest gang, the People's Glory Party, has repeatedly won most of the seats in the local city council.

However, with the support of Frey's father, more than ten years ago, the Kingdom's court declared the People's Glory Party a gang organization dealing in drugs and banned its status as a legal political party. The imperial military and police launched special operations to attack the People's Glory Party In the crackdown, thousands of people were arrested and imprisoned, and dozens of key elements were sentenced to hanging. Since then, the People's Glory Party has become a historical term.

The slogan of the gunman made this assassination, on the surface, a revenge from the drug gang organization.

However, Lu Ming looked at the names and information in the booklet and thought about it.

For the current main members of the Housesburg family, there is the Princess Dowager, the widow of Frey's father, two uncles and an aunt of Frey. Before Frey was brought back by his father, all of Frey's The uncle's eldest son, named Aldridge, was supposed to be adopted by Frey's father.

Looking at the booklet, Lu Ming was thinking about it. The sound of the water in the shower stopped, and the person who heard the sound went to the cloakroom. After a while, the door of the cloakroom was opened, and the fragrant wind was blowing. Pan Mila came out. Lu Ming looked sideways. Go, my heart skips a beat. The glamorous stunner with big golden wavy curly hair and wet hair is still a student uniform with a red and black plaid skirt behind a snow-white shirt, but the stockings have changed color, and become a few white light blue stripes around the top of the socks. The over-the-knee sports socks made her slender legs even more colorful, and the little stunner was even more beautiful and attractive. Whether it was the uniform skirt or the light yellow canvas shoes, they were all brand new, and the soles were not even a speck of dust. Just step on the bed.

Lu Ming groaned in his heart, just make a fuss, his heart was beating so hard that he wanted to jump out of his chest.

However, Lu Ming turned his head and glanced at the pamphlet, gritted his teeth, and said helplessly, "The news just now, Frey passed away and was assassinated. I think I should tell you."

Pan Mila, who was walking over with a smile, froze for a moment, and froze when she was about to sit on Lu Ming's lap.

"Heitou and Yuluan rested for a while, and we turned around overnight. This trip, please postpone it, and look for opportunities later."

Pan Mila nodded slightly, and looked at Lu Ming suspiciously.

Lu Ming was helpless, "Look, even you think I did it, right? At least, you have some doubts, what will outsiders think? I really want to jump into the Yellow River this time and I won't be able to wash it off."

Pan Mila sat gently beside Lu Ming, and after a moment of silence she said, "You're right, I do have a little bit of doubt, because I know you have the ability and courage, and most of the people out there don't know how to do it." I think you have the ability and courage to do this."

Lu Ming smiled: "Maybe, but because I have the status of siblings with a duchess, maybe some people will consider things very complicated, especially since the struggle for the heir to the imperial power is very fierce nowadays. Although the family has no influence at the top level, it is a branch of the royal family after all, and who knows, will the group behind my sister want to get rid of the voting rights of this branch because of some nonsense?"

"Because of the fear that this battle for imperial power will lead to civil war after the death of the great emperor, some important ministers of the great emperor's Privy Council have proposed to restore the ancient Griffinian system before the empire was established thousands of years ago. The future great emperor will be elected by all the grand dukes. produce."

Pan Mila listened quietly, didn't say anything, but leaned lightly on Lu Ming's shoulder.

Lu Ming glanced at her, "How about you, are you okay?"

Pamela was dazed for a while, "I don't know, I've always regarded him as dead, and recently because of him, I was worried that Bisi would be snatched away, but now..." Lifting the pretty girl who was leaning on Lu Ming's shoulder face, asked: "Is he really?"

Lu Ming nodded.

Pan Mila leaned into Lu Ming's arms again, quietly wondering what she was thinking.

Lu Ming wrapped his arms around her lightly. In this situation, any messy thoughts in his mind naturally went away.

"Bess, is there any danger?" Pamela asked suddenly. Obviously, she also thought of many possibilities.

"It's okay, I'm here, it's fine that Bisi is in Wolong Manor recently, don't go out, there won't be any danger."

Lu Ming originally didn't want to discuss this matter so as not to worry her, but obviously, even if he didn't mention it, this smart girl could also imagine some terrible consequences. The family members, including the privy chiefs, all know the existence of his daughter, but whether Bisi will have the right to inherit depends on what kind of consensus the family, including the privy chiefs, will reach. We will wait and see what happens. Now, not only Bisi, but you also try to show up as little as possible recently, go back to the villa to control the outside affairs."

After a pause, he asked again, "Are you really okay?"

Pan Mila didn't say anything, but leaned into Lu Ming's arms again.
