Chapter 560 Li Yu's Guess

Ilea took a moment to digest what Li Yu said before, and then asked again.

"But if Alister is not the murderer, wouldn't Gals be even more suspicious? Once Edward II died, the biggest beneficiary was him, who directly became emperor, and he also protected Clay, who obviously had problems. Earl De."

"Well, Gals is indeed the biggest beneficiary, but he protects Clyde mainly because Clyde is his swordsmanship teacher. Gals has some shortcomings, but he also has many advantages.

"For example, he treats his own people very well. Even if some of his subordinates make mistakes, he rarely punishes them heavily. In addition, I guess the main reason for him to save Clyde is that he does not want this incident to affect his coronation ceremony.

"After all, everyone knows about his relationship with Clyde. All the nobles in the capital know that Clyde is his confidant. If something happens to Clyde, it's hard not to think of him."

Li Yu said, "In addition to the above points, I think there is another important reason why Gals is not the murderer, and that is that he and those wing clans don't have much in common.

"Maybe they still have the possibility to cooperate before he becomes the emperor, but after Garth becomes the emperor, the upcoming Wing Clan army will become his big trouble."

The female lord suddenly thought, "Is it possible that the cooperative relationship between the two parties will only last until Gals sits on the Bone Throne, at least in the matter of poisoning Edward II, they still have the same interests.

"Gals wants to be the new emperor, and those Yi clan want to get rid of the old emperor who is actively preparing for war."

"Yes, it can be seen that you are also thinking hard this time, thinking of various possibilities."

Li Yu's praise made Miss Rabbit happier than eating butter apples, she couldn't help puffing out her chest, and she walked with wind.

But then she saw someone continued, "But... this possibility is still too small, Gals is not stupid, he should have thought that if he really cooperates with those Wing Clans, he must not be able to get away just because he wants to." of.

"This is tantamount to giving the other party a handle. Those Yi tribes will definitely use this matter to threaten and blackmail him in the future.

"In addition, when Bruce set fire to the King's Landing Tower just now, Garth's first reaction was anger rather than surprise, which also proves from the side that he doesn't have a deep connection with those Wing Clan people."

Li Yu's analysis made Miss Rabbit suddenly enlightened, and the originally complicated situation seemed to become clear.

But soon she frowned again, "But if Alister and Gals didn't collude with those Wing Clan, then who is the murderer who killed Edward II?

"It can't be the second prince Claudio, right? I think he's not bad, and he's very quick to pay."

"I don't know either." Li Yu said, "Jude and the others probably investigated during the two days I was away, but they are not nobles after all, and they can't meet the key figures, so they can only collect the latest news in the city Collect them.

"But based on this information alone, it is impossible to determine who the murderer is. Duran's direction is wrong again, and he can provide not much useful information. However, according to the method of elimination, I think Claudio is the only one who is more suspicious. With Heloise."

"Heloise?" Miss Rabbit was a little surprised, "Is the queen also suspected, but Edward II's death should not be of any benefit to her."

"It doesn't matter if Gals, Claudio, or Alister are not her sons, no matter which of the three of them becomes the new emperor, her power will only become less, and she may have to move out of King's Landing later. tower."

"The death of Edward II is indeed not good for her, but it is good for her clan." Li Yu said.

The female lord seemed to have thought of something afterwards, and she slapped her forehead, "That's right, Edward II seemed to announce that he would start a war with elves and dwarves before he died."

"And Queen Heloise is an elf, and she seems to be from a royal family."

"There is a small matter that Du Lun mentioned that caught my attention." Li Yu said, "He visited the residence of Earl Clyde, where he saw the sculpture of Papagani, the God of Wind.

"According to Clyde's wife Sade, Clyde himself is not a disciple of Papagani. He collected the sculpture just because it came from the hands of the master and it is a flawless work of art."

"Is there any problem with this?" the female lord wondered.

"There's nothing wrong with Clyde collecting art, but I know someone in the city who happens to like art."

"You mean Queen Heloise?"

Li Yu continued, "I don't really understand why Clyde got involved in the murder of Edward II. Although it would be more beneficial for him to become emperor, the risk is too great. A situation beyond redemption.

"Not only him, but also his family, the whole family behind him will be cast aside, and compared with the possible benefits, the danger they face is too high.

"But Clyde still did it, which is obviously against common sense, but if it is from an emotional point of view, then all of this can be explained."

"Emotion, what emotion?" The female lord still couldn't turn the corner, mainly because Clyde had already married and had a wife.

But after thinking about it for a while, she knew what Li Yu meant, and she couldn't help being surprised.

"Do you think there is adultery between Queen Heloise and Clyde?"

"I'm just guessing that Earl Clyde may be in love with Queen Heloise. As for what happened between them, I don't know."

Ilea couldn't help sighing when she thought of the figure she saw in the garden.

Queen Heloise's beauty is recognized in the mainland, otherwise Edward II would not have launched a war to get her.

Even Miss Rabbit, who was a woman, couldn't take his eyes off Heloise's face when they met for the first time. It's normal for Clyde to be fascinated by a man.

Moreover, Clyde is also Garth's swordsmanship teacher, and he can often enter and leave the King's Landing Tower, which also means that the two have more opportunities to meet each other. Clyde is indeed very likely to take risks for love.

"What about Claudio? Why do you doubt him?" Miss Rabbit continued to ask.

"The main reason is that Cornelia did not choose him, but chose Alister."

Li Yudao, "If Du Lun didn't lie, Cornelia had penetrated into Earl Clyde's heart the night before Edward II was assassinated. Cornelia must know something. The only one who knows who the murderer is.

"But due to political considerations, she won't tell the truth. Edward II is dead. She needs to prepare for the future, betray Durham in exchange for Alister's promise to go to the North, and keep everyone on the same page. Garth's suspicion is undoubtedly more in line with her current interests."
