Although he was angry with these people, now was not the time to quarrel. He took a deep breath, walked towards Duke Duke, and said calmly: "Your Highness, I didn't expect you to come to my place at such a late hour."
He knew that Duke Dark would definitely frame the poisoning of Lady Agnes on himself.
When Duke Duke saw Werther showing up, he immediately showed a fierce expression and complained: "Don't pretend to be stupid, I know you poisoned my daughter and killed her! I'm here to catch you tonight!"
Although I have only brought a few guards with me now, more guards are still on the way. I will take you, meet them on the road, and then take you to the dungeon in Frank City together."
"If you think so, then you can search everywhere in my place to find the evidence." Witte said, "You won't find the evidence, because I didn't poison at all."
"You must have used some hidden weapon to inject the poison, right?" Duke Dark asked, squinting his eyes. "You must have destroyed the poison, so it's useless to look for evidence now!"
After saying that, he ordered loudly: "Catch the eldest prince quickly, he is very cunning, so be careful!"
In an instant, several people wearing armor and swords came running from a distance, two of them looked like guards from the palace, and the others should be Duke Duke's personal guards.
"Wait!" Werther shouted loudly, "I want to tell you that it was not me who poisoned you. Don't arrest the wrong person. Moreover, Mrs. Agnes is not dead yet. My doctor is trying his best to save her until she wakes up.
Come and you can prove my innocence!"
Several guards stopped and looked at Duke Darke suspiciously.
"Don't listen to him, catch him!" Duke Dark ordered.
"If Mrs. Agnes wakes up and can prove that I did not poison, then you will be punished if you arrest me rashly like this!" He said loudly, his face still calm, "Your Highness the Duke, if I guessed correctly
, there are two guards from the palace, if they report the fact that you arrested me by mistake, what do you think my father will think of you?"
Duke Dark had a gloomy face, rolled his eyes, and said, "Humph, in that case, we will watch you here to prevent you from escaping."
"Well, I am willing to be watched by you. If Mrs. Agnes wakes up, you have to let me go; if she dies, I am willing to follow you to the palace and meet my father."
Werther knew that if Mrs. Agnes could not wake up, then he would not have the chance to see the king again, and would definitely be taken directly to the dungeon, or directly killed by Duke Dark. However, he believed in Ivan's judgment.
I am confident that I and everyone else in the castle can escape.
At this time, Ivan had already taken out the hidden needle-like weapon from Mrs. Aglis's wrist and bandaged her wound.
After another half hour, joyful voices came from the room.
"Great, Mrs. Agnes's hands are moving!"
"Her eyelashes seem to be moving too!"
"She's going to wake up!"
On Werther's side, everyone ran to the door or inside the room in surprise, each with different thoughts, looking at the scene in front of them. They did not dare to make a sound, but quietly watched Mrs. Agnes's reaction.
She stretched her arms again, then suddenly opened her eyes, stared at the ceiling for a few seconds, then immediately sat up and exclaimed: "Noli, why did you stab me with a hidden weapon?"
Werther looked at Duke Darke proudly, raised his eyebrows again, and said: "I heard
Come on, Your Highness the Duke. The lady is talking about Noli, not me. Can you now prove that I was not the one who poisoned you?"
Duke Dark and Earl Macdonald's faces were ashen, and they could not say a word at this moment.
"Originally, my actions can prove that I have no intention of harming Mrs. Agnes. Now, she has personally said that it was Noli who harmed her, which can prove my innocence even more." Werther continued, "Then, Your Highness the Duke,
You can't arrest me, you should arrest someone else."
He looked at Noli and Earl Marton, who looked extremely unnatural. Noli pretended to be calm, but tried his best to glance sideways and downwards, trying to avoid the eyes of the palace guards. Earl Marton even started to wipe his hands.
Sweat due to nervousness.
Duke Dark looked at Werther angrily: "Wait, the matter is not clear yet. Although my daughter said that, it does not prove that the poison was really caused by Noli. I still need to ask my daughter a few more questions.
Only then can we be sure.”
Obviously, he wanted to make Mrs. Agnes lie and continue to frame the poisoning incident on Werther.
"Excuse me, Your Highness the Duke." Werther stepped aside and looked at him cautiously.
At this time, Mrs. Agnes was drinking the water that Kath handed her while looking at this room. Although it was much simpler than her own bedroom, it was quite cutely decorated. Living here actually gave her a sense of warmth that she had not seen for a long time.
Duke Dark walked to the bed, put his face in front of Mrs. Agnes, and whispered: "Agres, you know, what you say next will be beneficial to us."
Agris looked around blankly and noticed her bandaged wrist and the needle-like concealed weapon on the table, which Ivan took out from her wrist.
Strange, aren't we here to frame the eldest prince? Why am I lying here? This should be a maid's room, right?
She knew that Noli had pricked the skin of her wrist with a hidden needle-like weapon, but she couldn't figure out why Noli did this, and she couldn't figure out how it had anything to do with framing Werther. It could be said that she still hadn't guessed it yet.
Earl Marton and Noli planned to take advantage of her life, and even mistakenly thought that the frame-up process had gone awry.
She did not dare to disobey her father's wishes and still nodded blankly.
Duke Duke nodded, stood up, and asked in a voice that everyone could hear: "Daughter, you were poisoned in the eldest prince's castle. Do you know who poisoned you? Is it the eldest prince?"
After hearing this, she realized that the hidden weapon had been smeared with poison. It turned out that it was Noli who had poisoned herself to frame the eldest prince! This idea must have been thought up by Madoner and him together!
Thinking of this, Mrs. Agnes became furious. No matter how much she wanted to get rid of the eldest prince, she couldn't use herself. I am Noli's master, and also Madonna's cousin! She bit her lips hard at the moment, angrily
Stare at the two people at the door.
Her expression clearly showed that they were the ones who planned to poison her.
Among them, the palace guards followed her eyes and looked at them. Just as they were wondering, Duke Duke suddenly bent down, blocking their sight, and showed a vicious expression to Mrs. Agnes: "Daughter, what are you dawdling about?"
, I will tell you soon whether it was the eldest prince who poisoned me."
Judging from my father's expression, he should know who the person who really poisoned me is, but he doesn't care about my current feelings at all. He just wants to use this matter to frame Werther. It's really too much! As his daughter, I
I definitely want to help them frame Werther, but I’m still angry. What should I do now? Should I tell the truth or make false accusations?
What about trap Werther?
She bit her lip and hesitated: "Yes..."
At this time, Wile said loudly: "Madam, you must tell the truth with your conscience! You were about to die, but my prince and Ivan tried their best to save you. In order to save you, the eldest prince personally
He almost died trying the medicine for you. Since he did this, it means he never wanted to poison you."
When Mrs. Agnes heard what he said, she felt as if something had hit her heart. It turned out that the poison on the concealed weapon was so toxic. It turned out that my cousin and Noli wanted to kill me, but Werther was the one who risked his life to save me.
She looked at Werther in disbelief. His expression was very calm and calm.
She looked at Kath and Lina on the other side of the bed, grabbed their hands and asked: "Tell me the truth, was I really about to die just now? It was really the two children Werther and Ivan.
Saved me?"
"Yes, ma'am." they replied in unison.
Mrs. Agnes let go of her hands and put her hands on the bed. She frowned and looked at the blanket covering her body. There were embroidered patterns of small animals on it. How cute. In this warm castle, this
What reason do these cute children have to harm me?
Seeing that she was a little shaken, Duke Duke hurriedly said: "These servants are all the eldest prince's subordinates. They will definitely speak good words for him. Their words cannot be trusted."
At this time, Margery appeared out of nowhere and said righteously: "Uncle, I can prove that Aunt Agnes was indeed about to die from poison just now, and it was Brother Werther and Ivan who saved her life.
"
"Shut up!" Duke Dark said angrily, then looked at Agnes sinisterly and said, "Daughter, tell me quickly and let the guards from the palace hear clearly that it was the eldest prince who poisoned me.
.”
Mrs. Agnes looked at the evil and sinister expressions of her father and cousin, and then at the kind and open faces of Werther and others. She had already thought of the answer. Anyway, even if she helped the Dark family, her own life and that of her son would be at stake.
It's still not safe, so why not help your benefactor this time?
"Father!" She raised her head, her expression calm as never before, "The one who poisoned me was Noli, my servant."
When she said this, the stone hanging in Werther's heart fell to the ground. He felt very happy in his heart, but he didn't expect that Mrs. Agnes really told the truth.
"What!" Duke Dark opened his eyes wide, looked at her angrily, and said in a threatening tone, "Tell me again, who is it?"
Agris walked down from the bed, looked at the two guards from the palace, and said with certainty: "At that time, Noli was the closest to me. He pierced my wrist with a hidden weapon, and then I was poisoned and fainted, so
, it should be the poison he poisoned me. The one used to store the concealed weapon was a perfume bottle, I know this very well."
Now that she has spoken in such detail, the Duke of Darke and the Earl of Macdonald can no longer frame Werther. They held their foreheads in disappointment.
Two guards from the palace caught Noli and found the perfume bottle from him.
"Madam, is this the thing used to store concealed weapons?"
"Yes, in order to prevent others from being discovered, he deliberately hid the hidden weapon on the cap of the perfume bottle. I saw the process of him making this hidden weapon, but what I didn't expect was that he had already coated it with poison and used this poison
He used a hidden weapon to harm me." Mrs. Agnes smiled bitterly, "As for why he wanted to harm me, and who instigated him to do so, I don't know."
She thought to herself that this was all she could say. As for not involving her father and cousin, it was the last bit of family affection she had left.
