Victor thought for a moment and then quickly replied: "Even ordinary people... can survive with only one head."
"What is the specific method? How long can you live?"
Annan asked.
Victor paused: "You mean, His Highness Philip is not dead?"
"He can't die."
Annan shook his head.
He had made a deal with the tragedian... that he was destined to die in a great tragedy as a sacrifice to please the tragedian.
And if this scene is called a "grand tragedy", it would be too sloppy. Compared with the possibility of the tragedy writer ending the story hastily, Annan is more willing to believe that Philip is not dead yet.
Annan frowned slightly, opened the curtains and looked out the window.
News of Philip's assassination apparently had not yet spread.
Because although the density of people outside has more than doubled, the pace of people coming and going has also obviously accelerated a lot. They are no longer so leisurely, but more nervous and serious.
But Annan didn't see much panic or anxiety on their faces. At most, they were just a little nervous, or they felt a little sleepy because they were woken up before they woke up and had been working until now.
The only possibility is that although they are looking for the "murderer", they don't even know what the murderer has done.
This is mainly to prevent information from leaking out.
What if the second heir to the throne was assassinated when the Duke of Winter came for a state visit... If this kind of thing was leaked, it would be very bad.
Because this is very unusual no matter how you think about it.
Once people find that something cannot be explained by their own logic, they will start to conceive of a conspiracy to rationalize it.
The first person to bear the brunt was Grand Duke Annan who came to visit.
This visit will become an "enemy conspiracy" in some people's eyes, and Philip's death will be linked to Annan. The previously discussed policy of reopening the treaty ports and resuming normal commercial exchanges between the two countries will also be hindered.
In addition, the eldest princess cannot escape.
Kafni is a whole generation younger than them... Philip and her are siblings, and Philip has been against her since more than ten years ago. It was also during that period that they had many brothers
The sisters all died for strange reasons.
At that time, it was generally believed that this was probably done by Philip.
Because the eldest princess has great advantages, there is no need to do these dirty jobs, and the only surviving fourth prince is an idler who refused to inherit the throne from the beginning. Then Philip can only do it.
Although there is no evidence, people generally think so.
However, after Philip's "death", such public opinion will inevitably reverse.
Regardless of whether it was Philip who did it before... as long as Philip dies, people will only doubt the eldest princess.
As for Kaifuni...she is really too young.
She is only fourteen years old, which makes her appear less reliable... but in the face of such a conspiracy, she will be subconsciously excluded.
Ordinary people may be more inclined to the concept that "Annan is the mastermind behind this."
But Noah's upper echelons - especially those nobles at the "guarantor" level - had just quietly surrendered to Philip not long ago. The purpose was naturally the "Fourth Histories" in Philip's hands.
Philip himself is the best spokesperson for the "curative effect" of the Fourth Historiography.
His existence is enough to prove that this great spell book does have the extraordinary ability to reincarnate mortals. And the most amazing thing is that he was not even sanctioned by Sir Silver... This means that it is most likely to be allowed.
Means of reincarnation.
They won't understand more things. After all, the specific information about great-level spells is weighty knowledge in itself. For mortals, they are too heavy and may cause people to fall into nightmares that are difficult to wake up from.
And if you look at it from their perspective, the logic of this matter becomes very clear - after Philip reached a deal with them, the eldest princess's original "guarantor" forces chose in large numbers
Switched to Philip.
Coupled with the political opinions advocated by Kafni, she also received support from Noah's military.
All the advantages that the eldest princess had before now no longer exist
But Annan went to Noah this time to re-sign a trade agreement with Noah's official... This matter was presided over by the eldest princess Elizabeth. And the reopening of shipping means that the ocean exploration industry will be developed together, and the military will be re-employed.
It became more convenient.
In the eyes of those nobles, they may also regard it as an exchange of interests - it was initiated by Princess Annan, who gave this achievement to the eldest princess in exchange for her not attacking Kaifni too much.
.
At the same time, when Annan signed the trade agreement, Philip was killed...then the high-ranking nobles who had betrayed the eldest princess had to regroup and choose Kaifuni or Elizabeth; and this incident showed that
There is another person who takes the blame, and that is Grand Duke Annan.
Because Annan openly took the blame, he could not publicly support Kaifni. Otherwise, the whole of Noah might riot... This means that Annan almost admitted the crime of "murdering the heirs of other countries and supporting the puppet king to come to power."
Especially, it was still the Principality of Winter—just a principality.
It would be fine if it was a superior theocracy... But in the eyes of the Noahs, Winter is a country with poor people, barren land, and much weaker than them. After all, the Winter people who appear in other countries are either doing physical work
Living peons are either mercenaries or killers.
In this way, whether Prince Philip was killed by Annan or not, it means that the eldest princess has lost all her enemies-although Kaifuni must be spared her life, it does not matter.
Anyway, she originally had no offspring, so if she adopts Kaifni as her adopted daughter, everything will be fine.
——So assassinating Philip at this time is undoubtedly a wonderful move that kills three birds with one stone for the eldest princess.
"Noah's nobles... Anyone who knows about my relationship with Kafni will definitely think so. Because the person who benefits the most from Philip's death is the eldest princess Elizabeth."
Annan sneered: "They do everything based on profit, rather than paying attention to decency and tradition like the Winter nobles... They are more like businessmen than landlords. So they will think that the greatest benefit of something is
Whoever the person is, this matter is related to.
"Because they really do it and are willing to do it.
"As long as they have such an opportunity... they will definitely be able to do it."
It can even be said that if the eldest princess Elizabeth had thought of this plan and had the ability to implement it, she would indeed do so.
Compared to the throne... killing her brother, whom she hated in the first place, was not a "choice" for her.
On the contrary, it can be regarded as a kind of "celebration".
