Chapter 281 Dead people have a role to play
The conditions offered by Emperor Bradley made even Melis, who was not very sensitive to politics, find it incredible.

The return of the ducal crown means that the Claurend family restores all the honors of the "Dead Duke" and regains the power recorded in the empire's constitution given to the founding duke. The empire needs to allocate a piece of land to Herot and establish a principality that belongs only to Duke Claulund. Even if the entire territory of the former Duke Claulund is not returned, a principality must have the dignity it deserves.

Since the Bradley family defeated the Blood Rebellion, they have been continuously gathering scattered power into the hands of the royal family.

Now Emperor Bradley wants to return the ducal crown to the Claude family. The impact will definitely be greater than allowing the rust nobles to form a knighthood.

Terenas also looked surprised. Although he said that if necessary, he could restore the Duke title of the Claude family, but that was just talk. He did not think that his father, who held power very tightly, had this idea.

However, Emperor Bradley said it so unexpectedly!
Of course, it's not easy for him to fulfill this promise.

Helot also did not expect that Emperor Bradley would offer this condition, but it seemed that only this bait could allow him to devote himself to solving the case.

It seems that Emperor Bradley could not see his "sabotage" in detecting the theft of the founding Duke's tomb, so he adopted the strategy of "heavy rewards must lead to brave men".

To be honest, Helot was very excited at this time, and he knew that taking over this case meant fighting with his life.

He has already provoked the prison and the torturers. If he provokes members of the royal family again, he doesn't know if his life will be tough enough.

Herot couldn't help but glance at Terenas.

He kept his head down, not making any eye contact with himself.

Sure enough, sometimes dead people can be used.

The infiltration of noble officials by the executioners and the prison forced Emperor Bradley to rely on members of the royal family. He has given real power to his sons and daughters, but is worried about backlash. Recently, Terenas' appearance has been too ugly.

It is conceivable how crazy these princes and princesses will be in the future in order to compete for the throne of the crown prince, and the murder of the crown prince is equivalent to the "Sword of Damocles" hanging over their heads.

The truth is not important to the royal family, a dead person is dead, and even if it is mentioned, it is in service to the living.

It is not up to the investigators to decide who the murderer is.

Emperor Bradley has the final say on whether to give the duke a crown or not.

In a short period of time, Helot figured out the emperor's purpose in asking him to investigate the murder of the crown prince.

"Your Majesty, please feel free to leave this case to me, and I will definitely find the murderer of the Crown Prince for you."

Emperor Bradley nodded happily.

"You are probably the only person in the entire empire who can investigate this case. You can rest assured that as long as you find the murderer who killed Aleister, everything that belongs to you will be yours!"

Emperor Bradley slapped his hand heavily on the armrest of the seat, causing the whole room to shake, as if to express his determination.

All the officials and guards serving in the room could not help but feel their hearts trembling.

The crown prince was murdered three years ago, and countless people were executed for being implicated. This time, Emperor Bradley dug up the case and re-examined it. I don’t know how many innocent people were implicated and died.

Helot asked: "Your Majesty, where are the physical evidence and materials about the murder of the crown prince now?"

Emperor Bradley replied: "Everything you can use will be sent to the Golden Pine Apartments. Regarding the source of tungsten, I have asked the rust nobles, but I have not found the answer. Terenas has caught these days There are many rust nobles, maybe you can ask something from them this time."

Terenas immediately said: "I will send these people to Golden Pine Apartments immediately."

Helot stopped him and said, "Let's keep them in the Imperial Military Police Headquarters. There are many residents in the Golden Pinewood Apartments, and I don't want to disturb their normal lives. When I need to interrogate them, I will come to you." "Okay... You can interrogate them at any time."

Emperor Bradley yawned at this time: "That's it for today's meeting. If you encounter any difficulties in investigating the case, you can come to me.

Please step back, I want to sleep here for a while. "

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Emperor Bradley squinted his eyes and slowly moved his hands.

After all three people left the room, his eyes suddenly opened again, his pupils glowing with golden light, and he was full of energy.

"Terenas controls the Rust Nobles, Claude Lund joins the Tomorrow Group, Erwin sends the watchmen into the Covenant City, and Holman is also restless. What do you want to do? Do you really think I am old? The guards are not Do you live in this empire?"

……

Helot and Melis left the palace and returned to the Golden Pine Apartments.

After disappearing for so many days, the neighbors he met greeted him one after another and praised his girlfriend for being beautiful.

Melis unconsciously held Helot's arm, and the two walked into Melis' room very intimately.

After closing the door, Melis put away her smile and said worriedly: "Do you really want to investigate the murder of the crown prince? Although His Majesty promised to return the ducal crown to the Claude family, you may ruin your life. inside."

Helot found a chair and sat down: "Are you trying to persuade me not to investigate this case? This is not like your style of doing things. I remember that when His Majesty asked me to investigate the case of the theft of the founding Duke's tomb, you were very active, even It’s self-inflicted.”

"This... this is different." Melis moved a chair and sat down opposite Hailot, persuading: "This is a royal scandal. You may not be able to find out the truth, but you will definitely be isolated. And the royal family members want to In the fight for the crown prince position, you may be used to frame each other; His Majesty may also ask you to fight charges that are not yours in order to calm the matter."

Helot looked at Melis and couldn't help but take off her glasses.

You can see her eyes full of her own shadow.

"What was my attitude towards the last case?"

Melis was stunned for a moment and said, "You told me not to investigate and also gave me a long vacation."

Helot smiled and said: "It's the same this time. I'll give you a long vacation. I hope you won't disobey orders again this time."

Melis's expression became very strange: "Don't you...don't you want to get back the ducal crown belonging to the Claulund family?"

Herot pointed to his head: "The ducal crown of the Claude family is here. When I came to Covenant City as the patriarch of the Claude family, it was already on my head. The Royal Palace The one collected inside is just a decoration.

Don't worry... I don't even want to investigate the theft of the founding Duke's tomb, let alone the murder of the crown prince.

You have been working hard for such a long time. Give you a long vacation and have a good rest. "

Melis couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief after knowing that Helot really wouldn't investigate this case, and then said: "If it's a holiday, I want to go home and see my father and mother."

"Going back to the iceberg and snow peaks?"

Melis nodded: "Yes!"
