Chapter 422

Hua Jin didn't care how the coffin containing the illegitimate son of Duke Yuri's family was sent to Duke Yuri's family with great fanfare. She only expressed two points to the people who did it. Yes, the second is to let the Duchess know.

Such an illegitimate child of an awkward age, as long as the Duchess is not stupid, she will know what is going on.

Thinking about it carefully, this illegitimate young master is only a little younger than the eldest young master.

In the past month, the biggest news and gossip in the capital was that Duke Yuri had an illegitimate son who was slightly younger than his eldest son.

Originally, the matter of the illegitimate child was not that serious. In the circle of nobles and high society, people played more openly than this. The problem is that Duke Yuri not only concealed the matter of the illegitimate child, but also cultivated the illegitimate child into a killer privately, specifically to eradicate it for himself. enemy.

For a while, everyone looked at Duke Yuri with subtle eyes.

As for how everyone knew that the illegitimate child became a killer, then the source of the news could not be found.

But at the very beginning, it was rumored that Duke Yuri sent his son out to eradicate the enemy, but he overturned the car and was caught and sent back with dried blood. sent back in the coffin.

It is said that on the day when he saw the coffin, Duke Yuri’s face was so ugly that no words could describe it. The Duchess even had a big fight with him. Now she has returned to her mother’s house. Her actions have confirmed the rumors.

The people who reported these things said that there was a huge wound on the neck of the illegitimate child, and there was really no blood at all, which showed how ruthless his enemy was.

They also speculated who Duke Yuri had offended, and was threatened by such cruel means.

The gossip spreads more and more widely, with more and more details, and even the bartender can hear one or two ears when he does not go out in the bar.

When he heard the news, he curled his lips in disdain. He was really glad that he decisively told King the buyer's information.

This duke is a heartless one. He has never seen a bounty mission issued, and even asked his own people to buy murderers. This must be so stingy. He is unwilling to pay even a little bounty. If you are so stingy, why don’t you send out the quest? Ah, if you don't buy murder, why are you so ugly that you don't dare to go out for half a month?
Yes, people in the black market agreed that the reason why Duke Yuri kicked the iron plate was because he was stingy and wanted to keep the fat and water from flowing into the fields of outsiders, but the boat capsized in the gutter.

Then everyone rejoiced again. Fortunately, the reward for this mission was not too much, and they didn't attract them to do it at that time. Bounties cost a lot of work.

Duke Yuri was devastated and disgraced, and even the queen called him into the palace to question him.

Hua Jin ate and slept soundly, and went to class well.

As long as Duke Yuri is not good, she is happy.

Mr. Zhong didn't express anything when he heard about this matter, obviously acquiescing to Hua Jin's approach.

Strictly speaking, Mr. Zhong is now retreating more and more behind the scenes, and the basic affairs are handed over to Hua Jin. Otherwise, Hua Jin can't move so many people to kill the illegitimate son, and send it to Duke Yuri with great fanfare. .

Both parties have maintained a tacit understanding on this matter, which is a bit of a subtle transfer of power.

"Junior Sister, you are a bit ruthless this time." Bella came back from abroad, heard about this, and said to Hua Jin excitedly: "Why don't you call me for such a fun thing."

Hua Jin rolled his eyes, "Don't, I'm afraid you'll be jumping around when I call you."

Bella was so angry that she wanted to fight her, and then remembered the business, took out two invitations, and said to Hua Jin: "I just sent them from the palace, there is a dance tonight, do you want to go?"

"Have you sent it to the teacher?" Hua Jin asked.

Bella nodded, "But the teacher won't go."

After Mr. Zhong returned to China, except for necessary political affairs, he basically didn't appear in the social circle. Every time there was any event, Hua Jin was asked to go.

Those with a flexible mind will know that this is a signal to hand over power.However, the title cannot be dropped soon. The queen doesn't like the Mars family's title to continue, and she can't find a reason to drop the title. She can only use Hua Jin's identity as an excuse to delay the title.

But Huajin's becoming the next duchess seems to be an established fact, unless the queen can find a real reason, otherwise it can't be stopped at all.

So over time, when everyone sent invitations, they were all for Hua Jin, and the one for Mr. Zhong was just to show respect.

Even if the queen held a banquet in the palace, she had to pinch her nose and send invitations to Hua Jin.

"Go." Hua Jin took an invitation card, "I can't tear myself apart with her yet."

"Duke Yuri may also be there tonight. I heard that the Queen, seeing how miserable he has been recently, specially organized a banquet to make Duke Yuri look better." Bella said.

Hua Jin suddenly smiled when he heard the words, "That's great, I just happened to see his recent misery."

The dinner was indeed held for Duke Yuri, the queen only appeared for a while, and Lala talked a lot of nonsense, only a few words were the main points.

At the end, she specially said to the nobles present: "The empire needs everyone's support. We should work together to tide over the difficulties and not give up on any of our companions."

In fact, it is to ease the relationship between everyone and Duke Yuri, but it's just a little nicer to say.

Duke Yuri stood where the queen was attacking, looking very close and trusting, with his head down, haggard and lonely.

The Duchess hasn't come back from her natal family yet. I heard that her natal family gave Duke Yuri a big gift and robbed him of a lot of business.

I haven't dealt with the affairs of my own family, but I'm thinking about how to restore the social relationship with other nobles.

Duke Yuri was quite capable of making the queen speak for herself by flattery and gossip.

The queen spoke in person, and everyone naturally wanted to save face. After the queen left, whether they wanted to or not, they at least had a friendly conversation with Duke Yuri on the face.

Hua Jin looked at Duke Yuri's gloomy face, and happily ate two more cakes.

"Gabililla, is it a good thing you did!" After talking with most of the nobles, Duke Yuri finally found Hua Jin, looking at her like he wanted to swallow her alive.

Hua Jin nodded generously, his smile was full of malice, and he said slowly, word by word: "Yes, Lord Duke gave me a gift, and I will naturally give it back twice, this is an old saying in our country, it is called Reciprocity. "

"If the Duke still wants to continue to provoke me, then it will be your only two remaining sons' turn next time. If you still don't give up, I can only greet you in person in the end."
