Wendy stood for a few seconds, then slumped down and murmured softly: "Then what should I do now?"
"Don't worry. First of all, it is possible that your mother does not know that you will go to Schonbrunn Palace today."
Wendy nodded, agreeing with Matthew's judgment.
When a wanderer returns from afar, there is no reason for a mother to go out for an outing.Unless she didn't know, she would not see her son.
"But there is another possibility that your mother knew about it but had other reasons for not being able to come."
Matthew didn't say it explicitly, but the meaning was obvious.
If Wendy's mother was under house arrest or sick, she would definitely not be able to come.
Wendy's face looked ugly.
This possibility is obviously greater than the first possibility.
He clenched his fists and said through gritted teeth: "If anything happens to my mother, I will never spare her!"
Matthew knew who he was.
A gentle and loving mother is definitely closer to her children than a powerful father.
This time Wendy was not anxious or even panicked, but his eyes were full of sadness.
After a long time, Wendy slowly asked: "Do you have any intelligence channels?"
"I have no interest in the imperial throne, and I have an agreement with your father." Matthew answered lightly.
Wendy was a little annoyed. He did have an intelligence system, but he couldn't send anyone to the palace. If he was discovered, he wouldn't be able to explain it even if he opened his mouth ten times.
Seeing Wendy's frustrated look, Matthew stood up and whispered: "I might get something unexpected if I go out for a walk."
Wendy did not ask about Matthew's intelligence channels. Everyone has their own secrets, and Matthew is no exception.
After an unknown amount of time, just when Wendy was impatient to wait, Matthew finally came back.
Looking at Matthew's expression, Wendy's heart sank.
Matthew is not a person who expresses emotion and anger. His expression is so ugly, and the consequences must be very serious.
Wendy almost cried and asked: "Matthew, what's wrong with my mother? Tell me!"
Matthew bit his lip, his deep voice filled with sadness.
"Promise me, no matter what news you hear, you won't be impulsive!"
Wendy became anxious. He grabbed Matthew's collar and roared almost madly: "Say it!"
"Your mother died last night."
Wendy's vision went dark and she almost fainted on the spot.
He said loudly: "Impossible, absolutely impossible! My mother is not a weakling. She is in good health, lives in the palace, and has no conflict of interest with anyone. How could she die suddenly?"
"She is only in her 40s, how could this happen?"
Matthew didn't speak.
Although he has no mother, he still has relatives.
The same goes for him if someone comes and tells him that a certain wife has died.
Looking at Wendy's red and swollen eyes, Matthew hesitated to lend him a shoulder. Wendy had already thrown herself into his arms, crying like a child who had lost her mother.
She didn't know how long she cried before Wendy asked quietly, "Is the source reliable?"
"I spent a lot of money. Money isn't everything, but it's close to everything."
As long as there is money, there is always someone willing to provide accurate information.This world also has specialized underground organizations that sell intelligence and provide assassination and other services.
What Matthew is looking for is an organization called [Shadow of Destiny]. This organization believes in the goddess of fate and the god of souls, and is a group of shady people.
Because of their shared beliefs, Matthew can obtain information through them, and the information fee is discounted.
Matthew didn't know that they had their own people in the courts of major powers around the world, but he knew that this information was absolutely accurate.
It's just a little expensive, a total of 50 gold coins.
He spent 50 gold coins to buy many secrets about recent events in the imperial court. Some of the information was even marked with the "Hearsay" mark.
This means that even [Shadow of Destiny] cannot guarantee the authenticity of this information.
However, just the certain information was enough to shock Matthew.
This was a series of events that could change the future and destiny of the empire.
After a long time, Wendy finally got tired of crying. He got out of Matthew's arms with some embarrassment and wiped his tears.
"Can you tell me more about the situation?"
Matthew nodded and started from the beginning.
The root of all this comes from a prophecy.
For three consecutive days, the Windsor Emperor dreamed that he fell in a pool of blood. In his sleep, he was killed by a masked man.
Then his eldest son and second son both died in the turmoil.
His wife supported the youngest son to ascend the throne.
Just when he was in doubt, a prophecy written on the shell of the World Tree appeared.
The World Tree Nut Shell is a rare material found only in the God Realm and is used to record ordinary prophecies.
This prophecy is not too obscure, it is basically a retelling of his dream.
Simply put, if everyone involved in this event were alive, the prophesied scene would definitely happen.
In other words, at least one of the Windsor Emperor, the three princes and the queen must die to change the flow of the river of destiny.
Matthew disagreed with this prophecy.
Since the goddess of destiny fell asleep, all the predictions in this world are false.
Because only the goddess of destiny can observe destiny and not change it.
As long as other people make predictions, the direction of fate will change, and the prediction he made will become invalid.
Destiny is inherently unobservable, and once observed, unexpected situations will occur.
As long as it is predicted, it will definitely fail.
Only Han Xing knows this truth, no one else knows.
That's why the Windsor Emperor was deceived.
After Emperor Windsor received the prophecy, he hesitated for a long time and finally made a decision.
He has lived for more than 50 years. If he can die quietly and keep his family safe, he can reluctantly accept it, but he can't keep it even if he dies.
If he died, someone would kill him and his two sons, and then put Wendy on the throne.
Who is the mastermind behind the scenes?
All the Emperor of Windsor could think of was Wendy herself.
Whoever benefits the most is the most suspect.
In this prophecy, Wendy had the last laugh. If it wasn't him, who else could it be?
Windsor could even guess who the dark figure was.
It must be Matthew.
Wendy had become very close to Matthew over the years, and he even got information that Wendy spent the night in Matthew's room and wore Matthew's pajamas.
No need to think about it?They must have hooked up.
The Emperor of Windsor knew that Matthew had countless beautiful wives and now he could no longer be attracted to ordinary women.
But Wendy was different, he was a completely different type.
It was no surprise to him that Matthew liked Wendy.
There are not many people in the royal family and nobles who are good at masculinity, but everyone does it very secretly.
If Wendy had Matthew's support, she indeed had the ability to fulfill the prophecy.
Windsor thought of Matthew's agreement with him. Matthew would always support the Himilun family as emperor.
At that time, he was still curious as to why Matthew would make such a huge concession, but now he understood everything.
Wendy is already Matthew's. Isn't it reasonable for Matthew to support his lover to ascend to the throne?
Today, although Wendy kept saying that she would swear to the goddess, he did not dare to accept it.
In the heart of the Windsor Emperor, no matter how much Wendy behaves, he is still a member of the family.
Even if he becomes a parricide beast, kills his father and brother and ascends to the throne, this empire will still belong to the Himilun family after all.
When Matthew and Wendy died, the throne was still in the family's hands.
Windsor tried his best to avoid the prophecy coming true, but also prepared for the worst.
If it can't be stopped, it would be better to let Wendy become the emperor than to give the empire to Matthew.
Of course, Wendy didn't know her father's good intentions, and no one would understand Windsor's persistence in imperial power.
Jensen and Hansen were originally on the death list of the prophecy. Their death would not only not stop the prophecy, but also make it come true faster.
The only way to stop the prophecy is to kill Wendy or the Queen.
This decision almost drove Windsor crazy.
He didn't want to make a choice, so he simply handed over the domestic power to Jenson and examined his eldest son's ability to govern the country.
Later, he hid alone in Schonbrunn Palace and lived an ostrich life of drunkenness and dreams.
In the past few months, he had found more than a dozen legal lovers in a row.
In the past few decades, he and the queen had a very good relationship. Only the girl who accompanied the queen to marry was made a concubine, and there were no other concubines.
Although His Majesty the Emperor has never been short of women, he will also pamper his maids, and even play more exciting group games, but in this era, it is already rare to be able to pamper the Queen exclusively.
Seeing him change like this, the queen was first angry, then sad, and then gave up on herself.
After the two sides had a cold war for a period of time, the queen finally couldn't help but find Windsor and questioned the reason.
Under the Queen's angry look, Windsor had to tell her the prophecy.
After confirming the content of the prophecy, the Queen never stopped Windsor, but stayed in the palace silently.
She didn't want to see Windsor and Wendy's father and son fighting each other, so she chose to commit suicide before Wendy returned to the imperial capital.
★Volume [-] The God-Slayer★
Chapter 264 The Son Plan
Wendy finally managed to control her emotions, gritted her teeth and asked Matthew, did her mother commit suicide or was she killed?
Matthew sighed and said softly: "Your mother committed suicide. She didn't want to see your father, two brothers and you kill each other, so she had to choose to commit suicide."
Wendy's body kept shaking, and it took a long time before she raised any questions.
"My father's expression didn't change at all just now. I don't believe he's not sad at all. I don't believe it!"
"Indeed not, because he doesn't know either."
Matthew said softly: "Your mother died in a secret room and will not be discovered for at least a few days. Your father thought your mother lived in the palace to hide away, so naturally he didn't know."
"That's why he used lies to hold you back."
"How did you know about such a secret thing? I'm not doubting you, it's just that this kind of thing is too unbelievable. My father didn't even know that his wife was dead, but you knew it first?"
Wendy finally couldn't help but ask the most crucial question.
Matthew did not explain, but said softly: "I also hope this is false news, but [Shadow of Destiny] never sells information that is uncertain. I think they should have someone in the palace, and it is someone close to your mother."
"This information is worth 50 gold coins."
Wendy couldn't say a word.
He has also heard of the name [Shadow of Destiny].This organization is a super underground organization in the Ediacaran plane, and ordinary powerful people can only obtain their ordinary services.
