Original Vampire
Chapter 114
The next day.
The bleak autumn breeze rolled up the dust in the sky and enveloped the entire Silver Moon City, making it look more gloomy.
This garden city, which was originally immersed in a festive atmosphere, became gloomy after only one day.
Although the tragedy that occurred in Queen Aisha's palace was only circulated among the semi-elf nobles, the civilians in the city also felt the current tense and depressed situation.
After all, the closed city gate, the order prohibiting entry and exit, and the patrol soldiers everywhere on the street all indicate that a major event has occurred in Silver Moon City!
At eight o'clock in the morning, Duke Miller, who hadn't slept all night, followed Prince William to the main hall of the palace.
To be honest, Duke Miller was greatly sighed in relief after learning that the king had summoned him.
In his opinion, as long as the king is still willing to see himself, it means that the Miller family has not been completely abandoned, and there is still a glimmer of hope.
The Miller family, who had just suffered an unprecedented huge crisis, already wanted to seize any straw.
"Good morning, Your Majesty!" Duke Miller stroked his chest and saluted, trying to behave naturally as usual.
However, his dark eye circles and messy hair have revealed his inner fear and weakness.
"Good morning, Duke Miller." The old king stood on the high platform of the main hall with a scepter, looking at his veteran from a distance.
For Duke Miller, the old king is actually very important.
Otherwise, he won't be the prime minister of the half-elf kingdom.
And Duke Miller did not disappoint the old king. During his ten years as prime minister, he has done a great job and managed the semi-elf kingdom in an orderly manner.
When the king married Aisha Miller as the queen, it was actually to win over the capable prime minister and make plans for his next generation.
Otherwise, there is no need for him to marry Aisha.
Aisha is of course beautiful, but he is more than seventy years old, no matter how beautiful a beauty, he can only have eye addiction, what's the point?
Even more how, from the first day Aisha entered the palace, the old king saw her hatred of him.
No matter how she pretended, how could she escape the vicious eyes of the old king.
In this regard, the old king did not care too much. In his opinion, how could there be no resentment for such a flowery young little girl who was forced to marry a dying Old Guy by his own father? .
But he didn't expect anyhow, this resentment actually caused such a disaster to himself and the Modwin family!
Yes, although there was no way out of Queen Aisha's mouth last night, the old king still believes that this woman lied!
What happened in the queen's palace at the time was definitely not that simple.
This is the intuition of an old politician who has been in the turbulent political arena for a lifetime!
He has no evidence, but he does not speak evidence.
"Did you sleep well last night?"
"It's okay..."
"When people are old and have experienced a lot of things, it is easy to fall asleep "
The attitude of the old king at a moderate pace makes Duke Miller a little puzzled. In this situation, how can he still gossiping about the house?
However, the old king seems to have come to Duke Miller to talk about the family affairs: "I remember you told me that you have two sons, right?"
"Yes Yes."
"Where is my grandson?"
"There is one."
"How old is it?"
"It's just full moon. "
"It's just full moon." The old king slowly walked off the platform and approached Duke Miller. He said pointedly, "So little child, don't many people know him?"
Duke Miller suddenly raised his head, as if he understood what the old king meant.
His lips trembled slightly, and an extremely complicated expression flashed in his eyes, like pain, resentment, but also gratitude...
After a long while, Duke Miller replied:" When...Of course, it’s a little child after all, and I haven’t seen a few people yet.”
The old king nodded, exclaimed: “Yes! And the little child grows fast and looks the same every day, even if there are people in childhood. I’ve seen it. It’s a little longer for a year or two, and I won’t recognize it at all."
Speaking of which, Duke Miller naturally understood what the old king meant.
Obviously, the old king is telling him that the Miller family can no longer keep it, but he can keep a bloodline for him-that is the little grandson of Duke Miller who has just reached the full moon!
Duke Miller burst into tears, and his whole body began to tremble.
I don’t know if it’s because of fear or gratitude.
"Your Majesty...Thank you...for everything you have done to the Miller family!"
The old king extends the hand and patted the Duke Miller's shoulder twice. , Whispered: "I hope you don't resent me."
"I won't resent you." Duke Miller smiled sadly, "This is our half-elf fate. It is inevitable that we will be caught between giants. I was crushed to pieces."
The old king sighed and seemed to agree with Duke Miller's words.
He leaned close to Duke Miller’s ear and whispered: "Go with peace of mind, your grandson, I will send someone to replace it."
Duke Miller nodded, finally Take a look at the old king.
Then, without the slightest hesitation, pull out the saber.
But at this moment, the old king raised his hand to stop Duke Miller.
"Your Majesty, what else do you want?"
The old king stretched out his right hand, coldly said: "You are my Knight, you should die, and you should die in my hands. "
The Duke of Miller was stunned, but he passed the sword to the old king.
Then, I closed my eyes.
Hey!
The long sword passes through the chest.
……
Outside the hall, Prince William is accompanying the Saint Prolos siblings.
"His Highness the Prince, when will Your Majesty see us? I have been waiting for so long." Anna asked boredly, holding the pebble on the ground.
"It should be soon!" Prince William quickly explained with a smile, "Royal Father is receiving Duke Miller, and it will be your turn next."
Count Evan is still there. Each minding their own business while drinking, suddenly opened the mouth and said: "His Royal Highness, what happened yesterday, do you still refuse to tell us?"
Prince William laughed Waved his hand and said: "This...when you meet Your Majesty, you will know it naturally."
"Okay." Count Evan didn't care, and took the wine pouch and poured it into his mouth. .
After a long time, a guard hurried to Prince William's ear and whispered a few words.
Then, Prince William looked towards Saint Prolos siblings and invited: "Two, Your Majesty can see you now, please!"
Count Evan and Anna strode forward immediately , Walked towards the hall.
"Prince William, won't you go in together?" Count Evan suddenly turned back.
"I won't go, Your Majesty just said that I want to see you."
"Okay."
The two siblings don’t suspect him, walk in In the hall.
However, the hall was empty, without a silhouette.
"Your Majesty?" Count Evan gave a tentative cry, but only heard his own echo.
Anna wrinkled her nose and asked in surprise: "How come there is the smell of blood?"
"The smell of blood?" Count Evan suddenly shuddered and realized that it was not good.
"In that direction." Anna walked deep into the temple.
After they took a few steps forward, they were shocked to find that a bloody corpse was lying on its back on the ground with a long sword stuck in its chest.
Because the line of sight was blocked by the pillars in the temple, the siblings were not immediately noticed.
"Not good! Let's go!" Count Evan quickly raised the younger sister's arm and ran outside the temple.
"What's wrong, big brother?" Anna still looked stunned.
"This is a trap!"
