Working Prophet.

Chapter 544 General Zhu

After a brief conversation with Miss Rabbit, the head of the royal guard hurriedly left the hotel and continued to investigate the assassination case against Edward II.

The female lord didn't know if it was her own illusion. Looking at the back of Du Lun leaving, she felt a bit of sadness inexplicably.

But it didn't take long for the girl to turn her attention to other things. On the other side, Li Yu and Ge Lipeng had already picked out all the lead bullets in the corpse one by one.

The next step is to prepare for the summoning ceremony.

Ms. Rabbit, the servant of Saturday, has met several of them. Each of them has unique skills and incredible power. In the girl's opinion, the most powerful among them is Watt who can forge sacred artifacts.

The sacred weapon he created directly allowed Miss Rabbit, an ordinary person with no martial arts at all, to win the championship of the martial arts tournament, as if possessing a terrifying power that could distort reality.

As for the new servant, the female lord is naturally full of expectations.

And according to the information revealed by Li Yu, this time it was a warrior-type heroic spirit.

This is also in line with ordinary people's traditional perception of heroic spirits.

The girl came to Li Yu's side, rubbed her hands and asked curiously, "Which general is here this time? Which famous battle did you participate in, and what great achievements did you have?"

"Well, the person who came this time was originally named Zhu Zhigang. He has been to Tagou Martial Arts School, Qingcheng Mountain, Shunde to learn Wing Chun, and Chenjiagou. He seems to have been there too..."

"Wow, life as a soldier and horse," Miss Rabbit listened in awe, "Then where is his last battle?"

"Poly Xinyu." Li Yu said, "He has been using Poly Xinyu since then."

"Why, is the fighting there very intense?"

"Not really, but people have to keep watching."

"Defending the border," the girl understood instantly, "It's really hard for General Zhu, and the people there must be very grateful to General Zhu."

"Well, probably..."

Afterwards, Li Yu took the initiative to change the topic, "What did the chief guard Du Lun talk about with you just now?"

"Nothing, he just asked me if I found anyone suspicious this morning, and what His Majesty told me before he died."

"Did Edward II talk to you before he died?" Li Yu raised his eyebrows.

"No, I didn't hear anything even though his mouth was moving, and I think he was probably just calling the priests of Cornelia to save his life. What, is there a problem?"

Yi Liya didn't take this matter too seriously, but seeing Li Yu's serious expression, she asked again.

"This kind of thing can be big or small, the key depends on what other people think." Li Yu said.

"For example, the person who planned the murder behind the scenes may feel that Edward II told you the name of the suspect before his death, so he wants to get rid of you."

"Ah?!" Miss Rabbit was startled, "But it's obviously not like this. I've already told Du Lun the head of the guard, or tomorrow I'll go to Queen Heloise or some of the imperial ministers to clarify."

"It's useless, because you can't prove it at all. Even if you say that, the other party may not believe it. And...

"And what?"

"And this is not the most troublesome thing. After all, you are already the champion of the martial arts tournament now, and your reputation is on the rise. At least on the bright side, no matter who wants to attack you, it will not be easy. But if it involves a battle for the throne, your situation It becomes very subtle.”

"A battle for the throne, is this possible?"

Ilea was puzzled, "Isn't the next emperor of the empire determined to be Prince Garth? He will be crowned in two days. Could it be possible that there will be some variables? Besides, who will be the emperor and me, a little boy from the western region?" What does the lord have to do with it?"

"There are some things that you can't just stay away from if you want to." Li Yudao, "I hope it's just that I'm thinking too much, but I still suggest that you set off early and return to the green field."

"But I haven't received my reward yet." The female lord said heartbroken.

"Forget about the Crab Corner, that place is too far away, and it's hot to touch. But it only takes two days, and I can get a bonus of [-] Golden Lions after two more days."

Speaking of this, Miss Rabbit couldn't help swallowing again. Although she won the contest, she was not dazzled by the victory.

It is very clear in my heart that Crab Point is missed by too many people because of its special political significance and the huge income it can bring every year.

The families behind those people are all she can't afford to mess with.Not only her, but even the emperor Edward II could only find another way.

First reward her with this seaport as the grand prize of the tournament, and then indirectly occupy Xinlu through the coquettish operation of marrying her to his youngest son.

And now that Edward II is gone, of course this matter is about to fall apart.

After all, she is a little lord, if she wants blood but no blood, and wants allies but no allies, she should go to bed as soon as possible.

But the land can be forgotten, and the money can't be without it, so she has been busy for so long this time, and she almost died several times, isn't it all in vain in the end?
Although he gained a lot of prestige, and by the way, he helped the Shuangxiu Church to put out a lot of advertisements, attracted many new believers, and even won a championship title, but it can't be justified without any substantive rewards.

It's not as good as those who are ranked eighty or ninety.

Miss Rabbit was a little bit reconciled, but she didn't say anything dead, she scratched her head and said, "That... let me think again, think again."

Li Yu was only offering advice, and did not force Yilea to make a choice. Thirty thousand golden lions was not a small amount, and it would be a pity not to take it.

Besides, it has also been said that chaos is a ladder.

Danger often also implies opportunity.

The aristocrats living in this city may not have heard this famous line, but they obviously understand the truth.

Not long after Edward II was assassinated, many families began to move.

They didn't even have time to grieve for the monarch they had served before, because the master on that bone throne came and went all the time, but the power was always eternal.

But at least for now, the position of Garth's heir is still very secure, so the movement in the city is not too big.

Most people are still thinking about how to dedicate their loyalty to the future new emperor of the empire, in the hope that they can be reused after Garth is crowned.

This night is destined to make many people sleepless.

Ilea doesn't plan to stay in the capital for a long time, and will soon return to the Western Territory. She doesn't care about who is the emperor at all, so she has no interest in trying to please Gars like everyone else.

The girl just stayed in the hotel and watched Li Yu call Zhu Zhigang.
