Chapter 683 Simple and crude
“……………………”
Facing Duanmuhuai's provocation, Alleria remained silent while the black-haired maid stared at her uneasily.
"Your Highness?"
However, the next moment, Alleria made a decision.
"I know."
While speaking, Aurelia looked at Duanmuhuai.
"We are going to the palace now."
"Your Highness?!"
Hearing this, the black-haired maid looked at Alleria with wide eyes in surprise. Of course she would be shocked. You must know that what Duanmu Huai is talking about now is almost the same as rebellion, and Alleria actually... agreed?
"Oh? I didn't expect you to make a decision so quickly."
Even Duanmu Huai was slightly surprised. Although he did have this intention in teasing Aurelia like this just now, in fact, even Duanmu Huai himself didn't think it would work out. He originally thought that Alleria would be distressed for a long time, and then give a very pretentious excuse such as "But he is my father after all" and blame everything on family ties. Unexpectedly, Alleria was not pretentious and said Just do it.
This is really...interesting!
At this moment, Duanmu Huai's joyful fire was also burning brightly.
"Go, go, go!"
Is it really going to be a classic remake?
"Huh? Wait, Your Highness?"
On the contrary, the maid looked confused, but unfortunately before she could say anything, Alleria and Duanmuhuai had already left the room one after another, and the maid just gritted her teeth and followed them... After all, things have developed. At this point, it's useless for her to say anything, right?
With Alleria taking the lead, the group did not encounter any obstruction when they entered the palace again. Although some guards felt a little strange when they saw Alleria's menacing appearance, they obviously didn't think much about it, and took the initiative to protect Alleria. Ya stepped out of the way.
Tsk tsk tsk, no wonder no one stopped Alsace when he rebelled.
Following Aurelia and watching this scene, Duanmu Huai couldn't help but sigh. Alleria's strength and reputation are first-class, and she is the only princess in this country, so there is no situation where anyone will seize power. Therefore, few people thought that Alleria would come to trouble the king.
"Bang."
Alleria pushed open the door and strode into the hall, which shocked the people inside. The old king was still sitting on the chair looking sickly, and the man in black robe was standing next to the king. . When he saw Alleria walking in, his expression was obviously ugly.
"Your Royal Highness, what do you want? Why didn't you notify me in advance?"
Seeing the black-robed man in front of him accusing Alleria, Duanmuhuai suddenly remembered the remarks made by the eunuchs around the emperor in the TV series he had watched before, such as "they were so bold that they dared to disturb the Holy Master."
"Father."
Alleria ignored the man in black robes, but pulled out the sword, placed it on the ground, and then half-knelt on the ground.
Oh, it tastes like this, it tastes like this!
Duanmu Huai stood next to him calmly on the surface, but inside he started rubbing his hands with excitement.
"I would like to discuss with you the investigation of sea monsters."
"Is there anything else to discuss?"
However, the old king did not speak, and the black-robed eunuch next to him spoke again.
"Your Majesty has made a decision, you just have to implement it..."
"What's the matter with you?"
However, before the black-robed eunuch could finish his words, he was coldly interrupted by Duanmu Huai.
"Her Royal Highness the Princess is reporting the situation to the King. Where did you come from, an idiot, and you dare to speak here? Are you not the King?"
"You..."
Hearing Duanmu Huai's sarcasm, the man in black robe suddenly stiffened. Although the guards next to him didn't say anything, their eyes showed some approval. They've long had enough of this bastard who pretends to be powerful, but what can they do? The king listens to him, so they can't resist, right?
"This is a matter between me and my father, Mr. Crist."
Alleria also stood up at this moment and stared coldly at the man in black robe.
"Please leave here, I want to talk to my father privately."
"This, this is not possible! Your Majesty is not in good health. If I am not around, what if something happens..."
"Oh, you mean, if you are here, His Majesty will be fine, but if you are not here, something will happen to His Majesty, right?"
Duanmuhuai sneered again and interrupted the black-robed eunuch's remarks.
"So you are blackmailing the royal family? You are so brave! You must have poisoned the king to control him!"
"What did you say!?"
Hearing Duanmu Huai's words, the man in black robe suddenly changed his expression, and the eyes of the guards looking at him suddenly became cold. They were also vaguely feeling a little uncomfortable inside, but after all, the words were not spoken. , no one will think too much about it. However, now that Duanmu Huai has simply and rudely tore off this fig leaf, that's another story.
This is just like the emperor's new clothes. Everyone feels great when they see the emperor, and most of them wonder if they are overthinking it. Duanmuhuai directly pointed out, "This idiot is still here having fun without any clothes..." Then all other reasons and excuses are untenable.
No matter what the black-robed man's reasoning is, in the final analysis, this is threatening the royal family with the king's life.
It’s amazing that this can be tolerated. "Bold maniac, guards, take him down quickly!!"
At this time, the eunuch in black robe was also very angry and hurriedly issued an order, but the guard remained motionless - just kidding, you are just a eunuch and not an emperor. We still listen to you when you pass an imperial edict. Your order is nothing. Son?
"Guards!"
At this moment, Alleria also stood up, her face cold.
"Get Crist!"
"Yes!"
This time, before Alleria could finish her words, the two guards standing beside the king pounced on him and pushed the black-robed eunuch to the ground like a chicken.
"Wait, wait, you can't do this! If I leave His Majesty the King, he will really die!"
At this moment, the black-robed eunuch became nervous and yelled loudly, but Duanmu Huai had already walked in front of him.
"It doesn't matter. Her Royal Highness Princess Aurelia will take over this post. You don't need to worry about national affairs..."
As he spoke, Duanmuhuai turned to look at Alleria and made a gesture.
"Your Highness, if you don't mind, how about leaving this guy to me for interrogation?"
"Do you suspect he has other agendas?"
"Of course, this is not obvious? And please don't forget what I do, Princess."
Just kidding, Duanmu Huai is a judge. A judge is the kind of person who, even if he loses a pen, can turn around and make others admit that he stole it - even if he later discovers that the pen was put in another pocket of his clothes. .
"Then it's up to you."
Alleria also nodded, deciding the fate of the black-robed eunuch with one sentence. The latter was also pale at the moment - his only support here was the king, because the king was currently half-paralyzed and half-dead, so he was able to obtain The power you want.
However, power requires recognition by others.
If everyone, including the princess, ministers, and soldiers, does not recognize his power, then he will be beaten back to his original form.
"Don't worry, leave it to me."
As he spoke, Duanmuhuai gestured to the guards.
"Find an interrogation room and let me entertain him well."
"Yes."
Since Her Royal Highness the Princess had spoken, the guard didn't say much. He nodded and dragged the wailing black-robed eunuch away from the side door, and Duanmu Huai followed them out.
Before leaving, Duanmuhuai looked back at Alleria again and found that she was coming to the king at this moment, looking at him with a bit of sadness.
But... To be honest, Alleria's performance still made Duanmuhuai very confused.
Duanmu Huai is the judge. If he thinks a person is suspicious, he will kill him. After all, this is what the judge does. I don’t care what other people think.
But others are different.
In ancient China, many emperors were seriously ill in their late stages, and it was rare that any prince was bold enough to kill the emperor directly or cut off his treatment. Family ties are a very small aspect. On the other hand, officials who are loyal to the emperor may not necessarily be loyal to a certain prince. Of course, Aurelia's situation is different, but Duanmu Huai is sure that there must be many people among the nobles. against her.
It can be said that once Alleria does this, no matter whether the king is dead or not, Ruminas will definitely experience a turmoil.
Logically speaking, a princess like Alleria should try her best to avoid this situation, because the turmoil is likely to turn into a civil war. This may be the reason why Alleria has never done anything drastic before, but today...why did she suddenly change her temper?
Duanmu Huai didn't think that he could convince the princess by copying a few lines from the game. Then the princess's IQ was too low.
It must be said that from Duanmuhuai's perspective as a judge, Alleria's behavior was obviously a little abnormal.
But... let's talk about it then.
Duanmuhuai withdrew his gaze and followed the guard towards the corridor.
“Bang!!”
The heavy iron door was closed heavily, and the black-robed eunuch collapsed on the ground. At this moment, he no longer had the majesty he had before, but looked at Duanmu Huai in horror, trembling all over as if he was having an epilepsy.
"You, you, what do you want to do?! I tell you, if something happens to me..."
"Don't worry, I won't do anything to you."
As he spoke, Duanmu Huai stretched out his right hand, and then the black-robed eunuch saw in horror that the fingers of Duanmu Huai's right hand began to gradually extend, squirm, and turned into sticky tentacles that flew out instantly, entangled tightly in the He grabbed the black-robed eunuch's neck and lifted him up, then the tentacles, like thick earthworms, crawled around the black-robed man's face, slowly moving upwards.
"I just need some memories from you. Well, it will hurt, so bear with it."
As soon as Duanmuhuai finished speaking, those tentacles suddenly penetrated into the ears of the black-robed eunuch.
The next moment, shrill screams suddenly broke out.
