"Hey, what's wrong!"

Several nobles who were on their way immediately greeted them. Among them were the northern nobles of Prince Xia Yin's faction, as well as several officials serving in the royal city. The confidants looked sad and explained out of breath.

"My lord is overwhelmed with grief and exhausted, come and help me send my lord back to the mansion!"

Seeing Prince Xia Yin clutching his chest with a painful expression on his face, several nobles ignored the rule of not shouting at the gate of the king's city, and called for the Imperial Guards in the rain to come over to help, but after a while, only the Imperial Guards appeared in front of them. There is also the elegant and majestic commander-in-chief of the Imperial Guard, Irene Sletter, with a long sword hanging from her waist.

Seeing Prince Xia Yin's appearance, Elinslet frowned.

"What happened to Prince Xia Yin?"

Unexpectedly, Eileen Slate was nearby, Prince Xia Yin's confidant swallowed, and explained guiltily.

"Your Majesty the Prince was overwhelmed with grief when he heard the news of His Majesty's death. I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to walk to the auditorium..."

"..." Irene Slett sighed deeply, "There is no way to do this, Prince Digoye is His Majesty's brother, he has the right to know the whole process, first take him to the imperial healer, the healer has a way Heal Prince Digoe. At present, no one can enter the sacred tree to confirm His Majesty's condition. Her Royal Highness has lost her memory and it is difficult to preside over the overall situation. With Prince Digoe here, everyone in the auditorium can feel more at ease. Please trouble Prince Digoe. .”

While speaking, Eileen Slate lowered her head and saluted with apologetic expression.

As if hearing something unbelievable, Prince Xia Yin, who was clutching his chest, barely raised his head, his pale face full of disbelief.

"You...you said that no one can enter the holy tree? What's going on!"

"It literally means, Lord Digoe, since His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess made the sacred tree sprout yesterday, no one has been able to enter the sacred tree, not even the Second Prince can resonate with the sacred tree. Perhaps since then, His Majesty has ..."

Eileen Slett's lips were tightly pursed, with a painful expression on her face.

"At the beginning, I should have followed His Majesty to the south. If I had been there, His Majesty would not have fallen into the abyss. Damn it, what the hell are those people like Gwen doing!"

"Ugh-"

Prince Xia Yin, who was clutching his chest, let out a sound similar to mourning, and the surrounding nobles, including Irene Slate, immediately stepped forward and asked with concern.

"My lord, are you alright?"

"...I'm fine, help me to the auditorium, I want to know how Yeledo fell into the abyss!"

"But your body..."

"Don't worry about me, go to the auditorium first!"

With a voice almost scolding, Prince Xia Yin urged his cronies with red eyes, while the nobles and Eileen Slate followed Prince Xia Yin to the auditorium like guards.

What a godsend.

If he hadn't pressed his chest hard, Prince Xia Yin would have expressed his joy on his face.

Although the escape plan was disrupted by Erin Sletter, a stupid woman who didn't know how to adapt and couldn't see the situation clearly—of course he couldn't go to the healer, otherwise he would be exposed in an instant—but Prince Xia Yin only had surprises in his heart, love Rinslet's words revealed a piece of news, that is, Dophelia blocked the sacred tree so that the sacred tree would not be targeted.

It is true that Eileen Slate said that "no one can enter the sacred tree", but even thinking about Prince Xia Yin with his toes, he can think that this is just a lie fabricated by his niece.The protection of the sacred tree can only be given to one person, and only those who have the blood of the royal family can have the protection. The last person who has the protection of the sacred tree is his younger brother Yeliduo. If Yeledo does not die, he can only rely on Get the treasure from the frosty land to hide the sky, deceive the eyes of the holy tree and pretend to be Yeledo's death, so as to deceive the protection of the holy tree, but whether this method is feasible or not is a big question mark.

Now that Yeliduo is dead, I don't need to deceive the eyes of the Holy Tree to obtain the super-standard protection of the Holy Tree that can only be given to one person. In this way, I have a one-on-one capital with Dophelia.Presumably Dofilia also saw through this point, so she released false information that no one can enter the holy tree to confuse outsiders.

After all, Dophelia is not yet a king, and if she hastily inherits the guardianship, she will be accused by thousands of people and be accused of being unfilial. She can only resist the temptation of the guardianship and wait until the day she inherits the throne before entering the sacred tree.Therefore, before that, it is extremely important to block the sacred tree and avoid being preempted by others.

After losing the memory, even the cover-up technique has become so clumsy, Dophelia, you can’t do it anymore, isn’t this telling me that Yeledo is indeed dead?

If he didn't block the holy tree, he still couldn't be sure whether Yeliduo was really dead. Prince Xia Yin smiled inwardly. In a trance, he had already seen the scene of himself being protected and fighting to the death with Dophelia.

Next, as long as you avoid being placed under house arrest by Dophelia, and then quickly return to the mansion to contact Godley to prepare, everything will be on the right track.He, Aldridge, is not a hesitant person. If he can’t be decisive when he should make a decision, he will screw up what can be done. The gain without risk is always just a small profit. He has waited for a hundred years, just for this moment!

With determination in his eyes, Aldrich ordered his cronies to go back and start preparations when he was about to enter the royal city, and then tremblingly entered the royal city with the help of the imperial guards.

As imagined, because of Yeledo's death, the royal city was in chaos, with nobles rushing everywhere, and there were signs of gathering of the imperial guards and magic casters. Prince Xia Yin could see that these people were trying to drive away. Going to the south to rescue Yeledo, the joy in his heart suddenly increased to a higher level.

Of course, he still hid his inner thoughts very well. He entered the auditorium safely to the audience hall, and then saw many nobles and ministers whispering, including Dophelia, the second prince Yeledo, the prime minister of the empire and Many princesses, as well as people from the military department, the Earl of Lafaria, and other northern nobles, except for a very small number of nobles and minor nobles who are not ranked high, all came together, and the hall was filled with a heavy and oppressive atmosphere.

Despite being stared at by the crowd, Prince Xia Yin was not timid. He glanced at the people in the hall, his eyes were red, and he shouted hoarsely.

"Tell me what's going on, didn't Gwen and the others go to protect Yeledo, why did this happen again! Or is the news I got false?!"

"Sit down first, Aldrich."

Prince Xia Yin's rudeness did not cause dissatisfaction among the people. Everyone knew that he was Yeledo's own brother. His brother would naturally be furious when his younger brother died. Therefore, Earl Lafaria just walked up to Prince Xia Yin and took Xia Yin with him. The prince takes his seat.

The second prince, who was already prepared, looked at the letter in his hand and clenched his fists.Although the second prince didn't keep wiping away his tears like some princesses did, his tightly pursed lips already showed that the second prince's heart was not as calm as it appeared on the surface.

"I think you already know the reason why you are summoned urgently. Just four days ago, in order to deal with the undead creatures that suddenly counterattacked in the south, the emperor used the seventh-level forbidden spell "Lava Burst". Five sixth-rank nightmare knight commanders ambushed and fell into the abyss together. Although the commander of the Gwen army immediately sent people into the abyss to rescue him, he has not been able to find his father so far, and it may have been..."

"I don't believe it, it's impossible! How could five sixth-rank nightmare knight commanders cause harm to His Majesty! Someone must have misrepresented the information!"

The second princess almost immediately refuted the second prince, because she and Yeledo had a son, so the second princess had the deepest affection for Yeledo among all the princesses, even if it was only a one-sided investment.

Calci pursed his lips and held up the letter with a distinctive seal in his hand.

"Mother, this is indeed a letter from the military department, and it also bears the seals of the commander of the Gwen army and the captain of His Majesty's personal guard."

"I don't believe it! I don't believe it!!! Someone must have framed Yeledo, it must be!"

"Mother."

Before the second princess finished speaking, Karsi frowned again and again. He first walked to the second princess's side to support the body of the second princess, and then winked at the guards at the bottom of the audience hall wall. The two guards Jun quickly stepped forward and carried the second princess away.

The second princess' speech was obviously just an episode, and no one believed her words.After the meeting quieted down, the gray-haired Prime Minister said in a deep voice.

"The most urgent task is to immediately gather people to rescue His Majesty. With His Majesty's quasi-eighth-rank strength and the protection of the sacred tree, he will not be swallowed by the abyss so easily. The military department hastened to gather people and set off immediately!"

"Our people are already preparing." The person who replaced Godlei explained, "but General Graian is not here, and we lack decisive power. Even the life and death of the quasi-eighth-ranked His Majesty is uncertain now, so we only send some fifth and third It may be very difficult for people of the sixth rank to get results."

"I will set off one step ahead of you, and I will be the main force."

After the speaker in the military department, Fiya, who was sitting at the top, put down her words with a blank expression.

"His Royal Highness?!" Seeing Fei Ya's serious and determined eyes, the prime minister's expression moved, and he said anxiously, "I understand your urgency, but stabilizing the situation is also very important. Your Majesty's life or death is uncertain. You are His Majesty's Crown Prince, you should stay in the capital to preside over the overall situation. This is something that only you can accomplish. The search for Your Majesty should be handed over to suitable people, such as the managers of the other two main towers. They are also competent The main force."

Chapter 51 Speculation and Exploration

"Father is in trouble, so I naturally want to rescue him personally. Don't persuade me. This matter is too strange and must be investigated. Besides, I didn't step into the abyss alone, and I have helpers."

"helper?"

Fiya's words made everyone at the conference table look puzzled. Some of the smart people had already looked at the silver-haired girl standing beside Fia, while the rest of them stared at Fia, waiting for Fia to give her an answer.

Fia stretched out her hand to Claire, motioning for everyone to look over.

"She is my helper. Let me introduce her. Her name is Claire. She is a human being I met in the Holy Kingdom of Milkandis. Claire helped me a lot when I was fighting the Church and Moon Dragon. Busy, considerable strength."

Following Fiya's introduction, Claire nodded and smiled very ladylikely at everyone, although because of fear and curse, Claire's smile only made everyone breathe and their scalps went numb.

How impressive is the strength?

Hearing these words, Prince Xia Yin's already concentrated attention became even more focused.In the Holy Kingdom of Milkandis and the Kingdom of Alfredg, the sixth rank is undoubtedly the top combat power, but it can only be regarded as the upper-middle level in Silval.

As the leading powerhouse in the Northern Continent, Hilliwal, although the sixth rank is not a handful, it is by no means rare. Both the sixth rank and the seventh rank can be called considerable strength. The gap between the two is so big that they can't use the forbidden spell and can use the forbidden spell. However, there are only four people who can use the forbidden spell in Shilivari, and these four don't include the princess of the past.If this woman named Claire is a seventh-rank powerful person, the possibility of a successful coup d'état will be further reduced.

To Prince Xia Yin's disappointment, Fia had no intention of explaining, she just continued to advance the topic.

"With her here, you don't have to worry about my safety. As for the affairs in the capital, Karsi, the prime minister, and Yulinsha will handle it." Seemingly feeling unsafe, Fiya added, "I'll be there soon. return."

It looks like even Dophelia is leaving Blossom.

Prince Xia Yin caressed his chin, feeling secretly happy. Originally, he thought that once he raised the rebellion flag, he would face Dophelia's forceful suppression. With his own lack of decisive combat power, he had to hurry up and walk to the holy tree I got the protection of the sacred tree, but now even Dophelia is leaving the capital, and the only thing that can stop me is the imperial guards guarding the back gate of the capital with less than a hundred people.

Victory is almost at hand.

Wait, this went too far.

Just when the joy was almost beyond words, Prince Xia Yin suddenly frowned again. Taking advantage of the discussion among the officials, he glanced at Dophelia quietly, observing her every move.

Yeliduo's death may indeed have been an accident, but Dophelia should be in the capital no matter what.It's true that she has lost her memory, but she must have heard from the prime minister that she and her have not dealt with each other these days. There was a possibility of riots, but she said something about going to the south to search for Yeledo's whereabouts. Things went so smoothly, it seemed like a trap she deliberately set for herself.

First seduce yourself to rebel, and then when you put the coup into practice, suppress it in one fell swoop.

At this time, Dophelia had sufficient reasons to kill herself on the spot. Even if she was a royal family, the most severe punishment for the royal family under the laws of the empire was exile, but everything was "forced by the situation". It is entirely possible to start with the cut and play later, convincing others on the grounds that "the situation was urgent and Aldrich had to be killed".At that time, no one will say no and commit the crime of treason. Whoever dares to stand up and speak for themselves will be charged with treason.

Really insidious.

Prince Xia Yin couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat. He subconsciously glanced at the anxious prime minister, thinking in his heart that it must be the idea of ​​this old bone. To retain Dophelia without hesitation is just rehearsing according to the script in advance.

Old fox, pretending to be real.

Cursing secretly, Prince Xia Yin has made a mistake.

It is true that all of this may be Dofilia's scheme, but it is undeniable that maybe things are not as complicated as I think. Suspicion can be interpreted as prudence, and it can also be interpreted as mother-in-law. The world will only judge success based on results. It is prudence, and failure is self-tying.If you think too much, you will miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

After thinking for a while, Prince Xia Yin came to the conclusion that he had to send someone to follow Dophelia so that he could monitor whether Dophelia had left Blossom. This was undoubtedly the safest choice. As soon as Dophilia did leave the capital, he would be able to take action immediately, and if there was a fraud, he would make other arrangements.

He considered the language in his mind, and picked a time when everyone was arguing.

"It's not right to have a human being by your side to protect your safety, right? Dophelia, I think it's better for you to go with the people from the military department. The marching speed of the army is a bit slower, but it won't be so slow. , if it doesn’t work, I will go with you to find the whereabouts of Yeledo.”

They said they were looking for it together, but Prince Xia Yin had already thought of an excuse to pretend to be sick and unable to walk.

As for why it is necessary to choose Claire as a human being, the answer is very simple. People at the conference table, including the southern nobles who supported Fia, all said that Fia should not entrust her life to outsiders, especially those from Milkan. On the people of Diss Holy Kingdom.

Although Fia emphasized Claire's record of destroying the Unsinkable Moon with one blow, everyone can imagine that this is Fia's deliberately exaggerated statement in order to emphasize Claire's reliability. The truth is probably that Fia helped Claire After a lot of work, the two worked together to quietly destroy the Unsinkable Moon while the Holy Kingdom of Milkandis was not paying attention.After all, the Unsinkable Moon is an artifact of the Holy Kingdom of Milkandis, a god-given thing, so there is no reason for it to be destroyed by a single blow.

Fia, who was sitting on the top seat, sighed deeply as if she was exhausted because of her father's death. She held her forehead with her left hand and turned her right hand toward everyone.

"My father loves me very much on weekdays. Now my father needs me, and I don't want to wait for a moment. If you want to persuade me to stay in the capital for my safety, please stop here. My life is bestowed by my father. Today My father is in trouble. As the eldest daughter, how can I not come to my rescue? If Zhu Qing's father needs you, Zhu Qing will also be very anxious, I hope Zhu Qing understands."

"But Dophy, you're too impatient."

Yu Linsha, who was sitting below the prime minister, was the first to pick up the topic, her expression was so unaffected that Prince Xia Yin began to suspect that this was not a pre-agreed script.

"Not to mention that you don't even know where Yeledo fell into the abyss. First of all, it's a long way from the capital to the southern part of the empire, and you lose your memory. You will lose your way by "flying" before you go too far. This will only get twice the result with half the effort .Besides, do you know what preparations you need to make before going down into the abyss? You don’t have any guides, tools, or applicable magic. This is too reckless!”

"I also agree with Her Majesty Wangfei. Your Royal Highness, you should go with the people from the military department. When the time comes, no matter what you need for handover or going down to the abyss, someone will prepare it for you. Don't rush it."

After Yulinsha and the prime minister expressed their views, almost all the nobles on Fia's side were persuading Fia, and what's more, they hoped that Fia would stay in the capital and not go anywhere. The inconsistent caliber and the quarrel made Xia Because the prince was surprised, this group of people didn't seem to have rehearsed beforehand at all, no matter their expressions or demeanor, they seemed to be thinking from the bottom of their hearts.

And that silver-haired, frightening human girl didn't say a word, and couldn't understand what they were doing.Under normal circumstances, this human girl should stand up to prove her strength unconvinced, but now she has not expressed anything, presumably because she knows that the description of destroying the unsinkable moon with one blow is too exaggerated, and Prince Xia Yin did not describe this human girl. Take it to heart.

In the eyes of almost all imperial nobles, human beings are maggot-like creatures, even if they become slaves, they can still be regarded as the least valuable batch.

The meeting soon became chaotic in the dispute between the southern nobles and the eldest princess, and the rest of the northern nobles followed Prince Xia Yin one after another. Since Prince Xia Yin did not speak, they only said some soft speeches, nothing Constructive suggestions.

It wasn't until 5 minutes passed that the dispute between the two sides finally came to an answer.

In the presence of Chief Irene Sletter, who has been standing at the base of the wall and listening, the two sides reached a settlement, and each took a step back. Fia can leave the capital and go to the abyss to search for Yeledo's whereabouts. In exchange, Fia must set off with the people from the military department. , although the Netherland in the south is far away from Blossom, four days is enough time for an army to arrive under the rapid march.

It is worth mentioning that most people think that Yeledo is dead, and no one, including Yulinsha, has confidence that Fia can bring Yeledo back.Just like what Prince Xia Yin thought, on the one hand, no one can come back alive after falling into the abyss; The princess is just going through the motions.

After everything was decided, everyone stopped procrastinating. The division of labor between departments was clear, and the meeting was decided to adjourn within a few minutes. However, just as Prince Xia Yin was about to leave, Fei Ya suddenly called Prince Xia Yin to stop.

"Uncle, do you want to go to the south with us?"

In an instant, Prince Xia Yin felt countless pairs of eyes staring at him.

It turned out to be here.

As long as I leave the capital, I don't have to worry about the king's problems. It's a good idea.

Pretending to be in pain, Prince Xia Yin nodded slowly.

"I'm with you, I don't believe that Yeledo will die like this, I will make preparations now, ready to go immediately!"

"grateful."

Fiya, who stood up from her position, gave a slight nod to Prince Shane, and then left the hall surrounded by Claire, Julinsa and Karsi.

Chapter 52 The Eve of the Surging

"Quick, quick, stand up for me!"

As soon as he returned to the mansion, Prince Xia Yin changed his appearance. He didn't care to wipe off the raindrops on the woolen coat. First, he hurriedly ordered his cronies to lock the door, and then called all the servants to the first floor. After everyone arrived, Dafang threw out a handful of gold coins and let the gold coins jingle and roll down.

Prince Xia Yin looked at these servants who bowed their heads and did not dare to speak.

"From today onwards, you are not allowed to leave this room for half a step, and anyone who disobeys will be killed on the spot. But as a reward, all these gold coins belong to you, and you can choose to leave here with the gold coins after the matter is completed, do you understand?"

"Yes."

"The sound is too low."

"Yes!"

"If you know it, do it!"
