"A Cruz man said he was looking for us. When we met this guy, he was being hunted. We rescued him from the cultists." Charles said while waving to the back, and the bushes roared.
There was a noise, and a young man in ragged clothes walked out. The latter's face was pale and he looked frightened. There was a hint of vigilance in his gray-blue eyes, which turned slightly, and finally fell on Brando.
Brando felt familiar at first sight when he saw the latter, and then he remembered that he had seen him before, near the Cat and Beard Hotel. Seeing that he was very close to the waiter girl in the hotel, he thought that the two of them must be
Lover's relationship.
He remembered that the two of them should have gone out together, but now only the latter came back. Something must have happened.
It's just that the city is in chaos right now, and nothing is surprising. However, the girl named Seti is a kind and easy-to-get-together girl. He frowned, subconsciously not hoping that something would really happen to her. If it happened right now,
If something goes wrong at this time, I'm afraid even he won't be able to help the other party.
He thought for a moment before asking: "What's wrong? Did something happen?"
Although the young man named Alka was in a state of despair, his thinking was still clear and he said: "Sir, please help us. Those secret society members want to use Sethi to deal with you."
Brando immediately became alert: "What do you mean, what's going on?"
Alka then recited the conversation between the secret cultists that he heard in his own language. Brando found that this young man's language skills were quite outstanding, and he described the entire incident in just a few sentences.
Probably, but then he felt angry. He didn't want to provoke the other party, but he didn't expect these damn hidden guys to come to his door.
He was worried for a while, but then he thought about the presence of Bai Wu around Roman. He felt relieved a little. That girl was just an ordinary person anyway, and Bai Wu was the spirit of the Witch Queen. Poisoning in front of her, the opportunity
It was really slim, and those tree shepherds obviously didn't expect this.
Only then did he put his worries into his heart. Then he noticed the doubts in the young man's words. However, before he could speak, Charles beside him expressed his thoughts first.
"These guys are really seeking their own death." Charles frowned after hearing this: "Fortunately, Miss Luo Man has Bai Wu by her side, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable. It's just the relationship between Lord Lord and Miss Luo Man. How did they know so clearly?
?”
Alka was worried about Sethi, but he also understood that both he and Sethi were responsible for this matter. He showed a slightly hesitant look on his face, but finally replied: "I'm sorry. This is what Sethi and I told them... the secret meeting
There are many informants in Rushta, most of them are ordinary people like us, but we only told them what guests were in the hotel, but we did not know that the lady... is your fiancée."
At this time, Old Niedwin, who was watching on the sidelines, suddenly said: "There is no doubt that the only people who can clearly know your identity should be the people close to Her Majesty the Queen, and the only person who has the motive to instruct the cultists to do such a thing is the Queen.
The person next to His Majesty, it seems that our previous guess was correct."
"What speculation?" Charles had not experienced the previous discussion and couldn't help but be confused after hearing this.
"It's the Dragon Queen." Medisa came over and replied. Then she carefully explained to the latter some speculations made by Prime Minister Niedwin.
After hearing this, the young wizard attendant couldn't help but show a rather surprised expression. After thinking for a moment, he said: "It's actually the baby girl?"
"What did you say?" Brando immediately looked at Charles.
Charles patted his forehead: "I seem to have suddenly remembered a lot of things. Do you still remember that you asked me about Miss Antitina's father when I was in Prague last time? I suddenly remembered that I, like them, have always
Looking for something."
"what?"
"Are you Mr. Charles?" Brando and Lao Zai asked at the same time, but the latter was obviously much more confused. He looked at Charles carefully: "Why are you still so... young?"
Charles did not answer the question, but continued: "Perhaps the answer to a question, originally just like fragments of clues scattered in my mind. I often remember what I was looking for in the Alka region in the past, but I didn't.
A systematic answer is like a dream that has become fragmented after sleeping for a long time."
"what is that?"
"The part I remember is not consistent with what Mr. Tullaman said at the beginning. I remember that your grandfather and Her Royal Highness the Princess brought back a baby girl. The baby girl was wrapped in a bright amber. That night, I was the only one,
Shipard and Pamid witnessed this incident - by the way, Shipard is Miss Antitina's father."
"What happened at that time?" Old Niedwin's voice was trembling. It was like a puzzle that had been pursued for decades. It was finally time to unravel the mystery. At this time, it was actually with the Queen, the Empire and even
The truth itself has nothing to do with it. The old man's dreams are troubled by the mystery itself, which is composed of countless complicated knots.
Brando also pursed his lips, this puzzle also troubled him for a long time.
"I remember that Her Majesty the Princess was not in a very good condition at that time - oh, that is Her Majesty the Queen today. She looked very weak and her mood was not very stable. She avoided us and had secret discussions with your grandfather for a long time. Finally, your grandfather
Bring the baby girl out and let us find a reliable person to send her away, and ask us to keep this secret."
"His Majesty was in a very bad state at the time. Why was he so bad? There were obvious injuries?" Old Niedwin asked.
"No, none, but she looked very weak, as if she was seriously ill, and her mental state was also very unstable. I remember that she objected to taking the baby girl away for a while, and sometimes she was sobbing softly.
It feels very helpless, of course, this is my personal judgment.”
"Where's Mr. Darus?"
"Mr. Darus' face looks heavy."
"Is that before or after?"
"What before, what after?"
"Before or after Your Majesty enters the final battlefield?" Old Niedwin asked loudly.
Charles gave the former prime minister of the empire a strange look and replied: "Of course later, they took the baby girl out from there."
"How is His Majesty's condition until then?"
"Very good, nothing wrong."
Old Niedwin took a breath and looked a little hesitant.
Others were far away and didn't understand what was going on here. They thought they were arguing. The sound of the argument spread far away. In the distance, there were a few wild dogs wandering on the edge of the forest. They saw the crowd here.
After that, I avoided it with my tail between my legs.
Someone saw a fire starting in the direction of Rushta, and the stars reflected the dark night sky red.
The air is filled with the smell of dryness and burning.
"Are you sure the baby girl is wrapped in amber, Charles?" Brando asked.
Charles nodded.
"What happens after that?"
"We found a reliable person in the coalition forces, your father's fiancee, Princess Gloria, who was serving as Eruin's envoy in the coalition forces at that time, and entrusted her to bring the baby girl back to Eruin overnight."
"What happened later, did you see her?"
"Later, I met her once when I returned to Eruin. It was about the third year after the Holy War, in a small town near Gendenel."
"Where's the baby girl?"
Charles shook his head: "I didn't ask. She didn't tell either. I only asked her some things about your grandfather."
"Something about my grandfather."
"Yes, on the fourth day after we sent the baby girl away, Buga and the dragon arrived. Her Royal Highness the Princess's attitude was very cold, and what she described was completely different from what happened originally. This means that your grandfather must
She must take the blame for her. The three of us who knew the inside story didn't understand this very much. We asked your grandfather about this, but he didn't want to say more. You already know what happened next..."
The young wizard attendant sighed: "In the following decades, the three of us have been looking for the answer to the original question. Now it seems that the person closest to the truth should be Hippard. Unfortunately, he died too early."
Brando took a deep look at him and replied: "Maybe you are the same, Charles."
Charles was stunned for a moment. Then he reacted: "Perhaps so, Lord Lord."
Brando looked at the old prime minister aside. The old man had a look of confusion and thinking on his face. "I seem to have caught something, but I always feel that there is still a layer of window paper. This feeling is really uncomfortable.
." The latter couldn't help but shook his head and replied.
"No matter what the truth is, we have to get on the road. Maybe meeting Her Majesty the Queen can answer the last question in our hearts——"
He glanced at the burning city of Rushta and gently closed the form on his pocket watch.
At this time, Alka, who had been staring at little Niedwin next to old Niedwin, suddenly said cautiously: "Are you the prime minister?"
Little Niedwin was slightly startled. There were very few people around his father who would call him that. However, when he saw the latter, he immediately understood that there was no one in the entire empire who could associate himself with the title of Prime Minister of the Empire.
Although there are many people in Rushta and its suburbs, there are still many people who can recognize him.
He nodded silently.
Alka couldn't help but take another look at the other people present. He didn't recognize many of these noble gentlemen. He originally thought they were just Brando's noble attendants, but the appearance of little Niedwin obviously overturned his view.
When his eyes fell on old Niedwin, he couldn't help but become more complicated. He could hardly believe it - the old Zai was at the height of his power in the empire in recent years, but after the death of Emperor Grantotti, he also lived in seclusion for decades.
, if it weren’t for the fact that his appearance was somewhat similar to that of Little Niedwin, Alka would simply not believe that he was standing in front of that legendary figure.
After he was convinced of this, his eyes looked completely different when he looked at Brando.
"Sir." He lowered his head carefully and said respectfully.
Brando glanced at him. Although the actions of this young man and that girl might cause him trouble, he knew that little people could not help themselves. Moreover, Sethi's brother did die on the battlefield of Ampelsel. Although the war
It wasn't initiated by him, but that girl can't be blamed.
Perhaps this is the biggest mistake of the Temple and Her Majesty the Queen. They have invisibly changed the fate of many people, but they have never felt guilty about it.
Such arrogance has been ingrained in the minds of nobles for hundreds of years.
He replied: "Don't worry, Baiwu is a sensible person, Seti is just an ordinary person, it won't do anything to her."
Alka didn't know who Bai Wu was, but such a nobleman reassured him. He looked at Little Nidwen and the old prime minister and had to feel relieved - not to mention that the nobleman's subordinates saved his life.
Killed him.
He was silent for a moment and then said: "Sir, if you want to enter the city, I may know a secret passage that allows you to enter the inner city."
"Secret passages?"
Brando was stunned.
"The tunnels were built by the nobles in the inner city. The priests of the secret society bribed these nobles, and by chance, I happened to know where the exit of one of the secret tunnels is?" Alka replied.
Brando was not very interested in the secret passage itself. He only asked: "Is the secret passage guarded by cultists - the secret cultists you mentioned?"
"Yes, but there are not many people on weekdays, and the secret passage is very remote and the entrance is not big. It is a reserved passage for the priests." He looked at the other people present and calculated silently: "But I think
It should be enough to pass through the lord's men."
"So the cultists prepared these secret passages to pass through many people?"
Alka was stunned. Apparently Brando's way of asking questions was a bit beyond his expectation, but he was a smart young man. He immediately realized the problem, frowned and replied: "I don't know, but I
I think that’s how it should be.”
"You said you know the location of one of the secret passages. How many such secret passages are there?" Brando asked again.
"Not many, but there should be more than two or three."
Old Niedwin listened to the conversation between the two, and his eyes flashed: "The inner city is in danger."
"This is our opportunity." Little Niedwin on the side looked a little excited: "Her Majesty the Queen is too arrogant. Perhaps the Dragon Queen Gwendolyn deceived her. The tree shepherd must have been prepared in advance."
"The problem is we don't know what she's planning on yet."
"There's no need to know." Brando replied softly: "We don't take secret passages."
"Don't take the secret path?" Alka really didn't understand what this noble lord was thinking.
But Brando's face showed a chill and he replied coldly: "Before meeting Her Majesty the Queen, let's go and collect the bill -"
