Chapter 655 The Real Black Hand
Five minutes later
The Queen and Mrs. Diggory, Mrs. Fossey, Mrs. Burke, Mrs. Clement, Ji Xiaodao, Cassana, Cedric had already gone to the kitchen to think about surprises for the upcoming dinner, while the others and Emperor William went to a warm and luxurious side room on the second floor of the palace, planning to use this free time to chat a little.
Of course, everyone knows that the so-called 'little chat' is today's theme, and the dinner that follows is actually just incidental.
Just now the Queen asked the ladies to leave with her. It was naturally for this reason. Miranda Fisher, who was also a lady, did not participate and it had nothing to do with her craftsmanship, but as a Marquis. He just had to participate in the subsequent discussion, and although Cedric, a man, would inherit the position of Marquis Diggory in a few years, he was not qualified now, so Marquis Miranda lent him a poem. he.
All in all, everyone knew it except Cassana Isabella, who kept her secrets.
However, this somewhat reckless little girl did not remain in the dark, because when everyone came to the kitchen, Ji Xiaodao, who was similar in age to her, had already told her the 'inside story' immediately.
“So that’s it”
Kasana, who was clumsily cutting some vegetables, pursed her lips with some anxiety and timidly asked Ji Xiaodao in a low voice: “That... Ji Xiaodao Sister Prayer, shouldn’t I be here today?”
The latter shook his head slightly and chuckled while peeling the fruit skillfully: “It’s okay, you should also be able to see that this is nothing. A very serious meeting, although they may indeed talk about some serious topics, but as long as we don’t make trouble.”
Kasana nodded weakly and said with a red face: "Thank you, Sister Ji Prayer, if it weren't for you"
"You don't need to use honorifics with me."
Ji Xiaodao With quick eyesight and quick hands, he pressed Kasana's little hand that was moving under the blade, and said with a smile: "Also, you have to concentrate when cutting vegetables."
The little girl exclaimed softly, and then she saw Ji Xiaodao casually take the bright red umbelliferous vegetables in front of her, and quickly cut it into a small pile of filaments. She couldn't help but exclaimed: "Hello, Sister Ji Prayer" You know how to cut vegetables, have you practiced deliberately?"
"Well, how should I put it, there are various reasons."
Ji Xiaodao smiled bitterly and shrugged. She couldn't say that it was because her sister was so good at cooking that she was forced to learn how to cook on her own in order to survive.
Kasana nodded vigorously and looked at Ji Xiaodao's skillful knife skills with burning eyes, as if she could learn it after seeing it.
"Mrs. Burke is making snacks."
Ji Xiaodao raised his chin towards the other side of the kitchen and said with a smile: "If you go now, you should be able to eat the latest ones. The first serving."
Kasana scratched her hair a little embarrassedly: "I don't really like sweets."
"Really?"
Ji Xiaodao raised his eyebrows and said casually: "Me too, but Mo likes it very much."
"Eh?"< br>
Kasana was stunned for a moment, and then she clenched her fists with a struggling expression. She just stood there and didn't move a step. She just laughed slightly stiffly: "Hahaha, is that so?"
Ji Xiaodao laughed dumbly and glanced helplessly at the aristocratic girl next to him who was trying to pretend that he didn't care: "Well, let me ask, you don't think I didn't notice it, do you? ”
In the end, the latter really replied in confusion: "Huh?"
"I mean"
The dark elf girl smiled bitterly and rubbed a strand of silver hair on her forehead. , and then while putting two small piles of vegetable shreds in front of him on a small plate, he said: "It's just because you have a good impression of Mo."
Kasana: Σ(っ°Д°;)っ
【So, is this girl a little too slow in some aspects?】
Ji Xiaodao sighed, turned to Kasana, who was blushing so much that she could almost bleed, and said viciously: "Yes! I already knew you were going to steal a man from me!"
Kasana Na suddenly trembled, waved her hands and said: "No, I didn't think about that."
"You didn't think about that much?"
Ji Xiaodao feigned anger.
The little girl nodded timidly.
"Well, I also know that you didn't think so much."
Ji Xiaodao rubbed Kasana's hair and said with a very serious expression: "So I was just teasing you."
“Eh?”
Kasana was immediately petrified.
“You are free to like whoever you like.”
Ji Xiaodao skillfully mixed the sauce, leaving Kasana with a calm face, without joy or sorrow, and said softly: "But in my personal opinion, you'd better stay away from that guy Stay away, um, let me explain in advance, this has nothing to do with my current position, it’s just for your sake, help me get the bottle of red seasoning.”
No one else would do this. If you believe it, the innocent Cassana really didn't have any doubts at all. She just asked Ji Xiaodao in a soft voice: "Sister Silent Prayer, why do you say that?"
< br>"Because Mo is the most unsuitable person in the world to be the object of admiration."
Ji Xiaodao answered without thinking, and then added: "And he is this person. He is very inconsistent, the person you see and the real person are completely different.”
This sentence can be said to be very pertinent, and although there is a suspicion of leaking secrets, given that the two are guilty. The female companion and admirer of the Duke, so it doesn't matter even if others hear it. At best, they will just think that Ji Xiaodao is protecting the food. As for Kasana herself, although it cannot be said that she does not have this suspicion, she can also feel it. I noticed the sincerity in the words of this 'Sister Silent Prayer'.
"Now, what does Lord Sin look like in Sister Silent Prayer's eyes?"
Cassana didn't seem to have any awareness of being a love rival. Instead, she asked with bright eyes, obviously not wanting to miss anything. A chance to get to know someone.
Unfortunately, Ji Xiaodao didn't mean much, and just said lightly: "In short, falling in love with him is not a good thing. You just need to remember this."
"Well"
This time Kasana finally misunderstood, and then suddenly lowered her head and muttered in a low voice: "Actually, I can be small"
Ji Xiaodao looked at the eldest lady who had made such bold words in surprise. He reacted for a while before laughing and said, "Are you too brave to go out?"
Kasana, who knew she had made a mistake, blushed again and said Speechless.
"Don't think too much, in fact, what I want to say is just..."
Ji Xiaodao put down the sauce in his hand and said seriously: "Maybe you are willing to give your heart to him, But he can't give his heart to you in the same way. In fact, I'm not even sure whether he has a 'heart'."
Kasana nodded in understanding, and then asked a little discouraged. Said: "Is it because Your Excellency, Lord Sin, gave his heart to Sister Ji Prayer?"
"Ha"
Ji Xiaodao shrugged, spread his hands and said, "Didn't I tell you, I'm not even sure whether he has a 'heart'."
Kasanna's eyes were burning. Staring at her: "But even so, Sister Silence Prayer also gave her 'heart' to Lord Sin, didn't she?"
"No."
The latter sighed. , smiled self-deprecatingly: "In fact, I am not sure whether I have a 'heart'."
"How could my sister not have a heart?"
"I don't think so." "Eh? Why do you think so?"
"Because if there is, Either I would never have been here from the beginning, or"
"Sister Silent Prayer?"
"Nothing, the side dishes are ready, let's go over there to help~"
The other side
"I want to congratulate you again, Mo."
William Bo He raised his glass and smiled: "To the Lord of Sui, he is the hero of the Chauvin Empire."
"To the Lord of Sui."
The others drank the wine in their glasses at the same time.
Mo drank up the red wine in his glass like the others, smiled awkwardly at William and said: "Thank you for your love, Your Majesty, Mo deserves it."
"No, you accept it. Well-deserved."
Next to him, Marquis Miranda chuckled and refilled the wine for Mo and herself. , raised his glass and said: "Everyone here knows what you have done, and also knows what kind of catastrophe you have avoided for this country. If you deserve it, we all might as well go to the kitchen to help. "
Mo shook his head: "But."
"You just made the right choice at the right time."
Empire Marshal Galahad interrupted Mo's hesitation and said in a deep voice: "In the event that the Griffin Dynasty may intervene, Even I will make the same decision. You should be proud of your decisiveness."
Others also nodded, and Archduke Garros and Prince Arthur, who had always been optimistic about the Sin Lord, were even more pleased. The ground and the ink raised their glasses again.
"Okay, that's the end of the discussion on this matter."
William decisively revealed the matter of promotion to the title before Mo opened his mouth, and said in a deep voice: "Today we are calling everyone Come here, mainly because I have a few things to say.”
Everyone immediately stopped talking and turned their attention to His Majesty the Emperor sitting by the fireplace.
“But before that, I want to introduce a friend to you first.”
William took out a goose egg-sized ball from his pocket and was engraved with complicated runes. Purple spar, placed it on the low table at hand, smiled and said: "Mr. Li Fu Astor, the agent from Tianzhu Mountain."
Tianzhu Mountain? !
Agent? !
The people present are all well-informed people. Naturally, they know about Tianzhu Mountain, which is located in the northwest of the mainland, has a long history and is unfathomable. However, most of the people present have heard of Tianzhu Mountain for the first time. , all showed curious expressions.
The next second, accompanied by a subtle buzzing sound, a phantom wearing a white robe and a hood appeared in the sky above the crystal, and after giving a slight salute to everyone, it made a seriously distorted sound. Voice: "I'm sorry that I can only meet you in this form. My name is Li Fu Astor, as Your Majesty said that he is the representative of Tianzhu Mountain, and he has been active in your country during this period."
"Activities?"
Galahat frowned, politely. Asked directly and forcefully: "What activity?"
"Following a certain phenomenon."
Li Foyan gave a concise and concise answer, saying calmly: "Or some kind of power. Or a certain person. In short, it is a dangerous and evil existence."
William in Galaha Te nodded before continuing to question, and said in a deep voice: "As Mr. Li Fo The first collaborator after arriving in the empire, I can guarantee that he is telling the truth, because we, Chauvin, are the victims of that power."
"Your Majesty."
Old. The chief justice, Marquis Nafario Clemente, looked at William in surprise.
The latter sighed softly and smiled bitterly: "I know what you want to say. Don't worry, Mr. Li Fu will explain to everyone why we are 'victims'."
The justice was stunned for a moment, and then nodded to Li Fo's shadow: "I'd like to trouble you, Mr. Actor."
"You're welcome, Marquis Clement, in fact, I have already thought about it. I have had a candid talk with you, but it is a pity that His Majesty and I did not complete the final observation until recently and confirmed that there are no problems with everyone here."
Li Fo's voice was calm and did not reveal anything. mood.
And everyone’s reaction was wonderful.
“What to observe?”
Earl Moody Burke rubbed his hands uneasily.
"Are you here talking about us? What problems will we have?"
The tone of the hot-tempered Marquis Will McBride was full of gunpowder.
"Please get to the topic as soon as possible, Mr. Li Fu."
Marquis Miranda Fisher narrowed her eyes slightly and said softly: "Everyone is very curious."
"Okay, let's get straight to the point."
Li Fo nodded and asked lightly: "First of all, everyone should still remember the murder in Banser City half a year ago, right?"
< br>Everyone's expressions darkened, obviously no one's memory would be so bad.
“As far as I know, although the subsequent investigation results have not been made public, according to the testimony of His Excellency the Marshal, Grand Duke Garros, members of the Knights of the Tsar’s Sword, and members of the Hurricane Mage Order, the matter was ultimately attributed to The former imperial law god, that is, It's Master Farah Ossis."
Li Fu paused for a moment before continuing: "Then, based on your understanding of Master Ossis, it seems that he would do this. A troublemaker? ”
"Of course not, there is no way that Farah will betray the empire."
Immediately someone answered categorically, but when everyone took a closer look, the speaker turned out to be the old marshal Galahad, who was verifying the law with Garros God's traitorous Galahad!
“Look what I’m doing?”
Galahad snorted and said in a deep voice: “I did say that Farah had taken action against us at that time, and even planned to use some kind of large-scale The spell wiped out all of us in Banser City, but I also don't think it was the Farah Ossis I knew. Obviously, He was in a very strange state at the time."
Grand Duke Garros, who was also involved, also nodded and echoed: "The Marshal is right. Teacher Farah was in a very strange state at that time. We already informed His Majesty when we first returned to the capital.”
"Could it be said"
Arthur suddenly turned his head and looked at Li Fo's shadow above the spar, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Li Fo, do you know the reason why the Dharma God behaved differently at that time?!"< br>
“Although I dare not make any inferences without firm certainty.”
Li Fo took a deep breath and exchanged a look with Emperor William next to him.
“ But I can guarantee that Master Ossis, who is also the representative of Tianzhu Mountain with me, will never do that kind of thing, so he was probably controlled by someone at that time or even earlier, and that person was the real The mastermind behind it!”
