The most shameless alchemist in history - Chapter 873
Chapter 873
The evening breeze slowly blows, and there is a full moon hanging on the horizon, and the stars are shining. This indicates that tomorrow will be a good weather. As the night gets deeper and deeper, most of the guests have already left the Duke’s mansion, waiter We cleaned up the leftovers from the banquet, and we could see guards patrolling outside.
Looking further afield, there is a lighthouse on the sea with fire light, pointing out the direction of the ships passing by. Of course, this lighthouse was built by the Messiah’s father himself, not as strange as the shadow tower. Strange things, looking at this location, River Bay City is prosperous.
“Maybe I can’t find a common language with those high-ranking officials, or maybe I don’t have so much ambition. I don’t have the slightest interest in fighting for power, so I can’t talk with them. I can’t even meet them. It’s just saying something nutritious.”
Du Lei was still blowing the cold wind on the balcony. This comfortable and pleasant feeling made him very enjoyable, while Messiah watched him quietly beside him.
“Actually, this is completely understandable. Du Lei, you had such a high reputation in the Snow Country before, but for the post of inspector general, you just resigned. This is surprising to countless people, because people I always try my best to climb to higher places, willing to give everything in order to gain power, but Du Lei, you don’t care about that. I don’t know how many people envy Du Lei.”
Messiah blinked his eyes and said, as early as when she met Du Lei at Maple Leaf Academy many years ago, she had a feeling at first sight, which made her care about the boy at that time. Of course, it was later confirmed that she would There was an earlier reason for being attracted by Du Lei.
When she was a child, she had seen Du Lei from the future. They also made an agreement at that time and forged an indissoluble bond. Without Du Lei’s support and encouragement, I am afraid she would be There is no way to survive that difficult time.
“Envy me? In fact, I envy them even more, being able to do what I want to do in the best years, but I, the best years, just disappeared like that.” Du Lei shook his head gently. Sometimes he felt strange.
This is an extremely unreal feeling, because when he was still a handsome young man, because of an accident, he was frozen for eight years, from fifteen to twenty. The best eight years at the age of three have become a dream.
“Humans are such strange creatures. They never cherish the things they own, but they always envy others’ possessions. They don’t know that those people he envy, and envy himself, this is really a contradiction.” Messiah thought. Think, it feels a bit complicated.
“Okay, what do you think about the next situation in Numa Country?” Du Lei was reluctant to talk about too many strange topics, turning to the main topic.
“What’s the next situation in Marsh Country? This…” Messiah didn’t expect Du Lei to ask so suddenly.
“There are now three stages in the Swamp Country. They are the stage of the city of Sawa, the stage of the river bay, and the stage of the old port, right?” Du Lei looked at Messiah a little embarrassed, and took a step calmly. Said.
“It’s indeed what you said, Du Lei, but the most important of these three stages is the stage of Zezhicheng.” Messiah nodded and said. She has been sitting in the seat of the Duke of the Bay for so many years. , Although he is still young, he has long been called experienced.
“Yes, the crux of the problem is that King Charles is very old and sick, and has not been seen in public for a long time. There are many stories about the old king. Some say that he is already dead, but Henry and The two princes William had not yet decided who was the heir to the throne, so they did not announce the death. Some said that the old king had been controlled by people, unconscious, and there were many talks, but he was still reluctant to show up. In the case of, the situation in Numa Country was actually very chaotic. In the previous battle of River Bend, whether it was Henry or William, they did not come up with legal authorization. In fact, this war was mainly It was William led, and this defeat also brought him a heavy blow. Henry was watching a good show from the sidelines. To some extent, the throne had already tilted towards Henry.” Du Lei calmly analyzed. Current situation.
“It seems…it is true.” Messiah nodded and said.
“In fact, to get rid of the current situation, one of the most critical points is the old king, so Messiah, what is going on with the old king? You saw him in the city of Ze, right? And you, the Duke of the Bay , It should have been Henry and William’s efforts to draw in, but as competitors, they have joined forces to suppress you. This must have a deep reason, right?” Du Lei continued.
“This…” Messiah made Du Lei right, she hesitated for a moment, then stopped talking.
“The old king is still alive, right?” Du Lei asked the first question when he saw Messiah embarrassed.
“Yes, he is still alive now, but his physical condition is not very good.” Messiah nodded and said affirmatively.
“He told you a major secret, or entrusted you with a major matter. This matter is enough to pose a serious threat to both Henry and William, so they will kill you at all costs, right? Du Lei continued to ask.
“This…yes.” Messiah was a little confused by Du Lei’s question. Originally, she was planning to conceal the affairs of Zezhi City. No one said anything, even if Zezhi City initiated it. After the River Bay War, she did not announce the incident.
But now facing Du Lei’s questioning, this made her hesitate, because she can conceal others, but there is no way to conceal Du Lei.
“This secret is enough to affect the throne. This is the most intuitive interest of William and Henry. They will suppress you at all times. So I think there is only one answer that can explain the question. The old king listed you as the heir to the throne. Huh?” Du Lei said sharply.
“How do you know Du Lei…” Messiah was taken aback. She felt that she was about to be unable to withstand it. If Du Lei continued to ask questions, she would only be able to tell the truth, but no one knew she hadn’t said it yet. , Du Lei guessed the answer first.
No wonder she was so surprised.
“In fact, as long as you clarify the interests of all parties and come to such a conclusion, it is not surprising. Then, Messiah, what is going on, the old king put his two sons aside, not allowing them to inherit the throne, but If you want to hand over the throne to you, there must be some unknown things involved in this, or it is related to his two sons, if it is not his biological sons, then naturally they will not be allowed to inherit the throne, but there is a problem here. William and Henry and their mothers are not the same person, and they are indeed the sons of the old king. There is no problem with blood relationship. Then the problem does not lie with William and Henry, it can only lie with the old king himself. ,Right?”
Du Lei calmly analyzed the situation, deepening layer by layer as if pulling a cocoon.
“Yes, Du Lei, you are right. The problem lies with the old king, which is my uncle.” Messiah knew that she couldn’t hide Du Lei at all, so she could only tell what she knew. Tell Du Lei one ten…
It turned out that in the last change of the throne, the throne did not belong to the current old king, that is, Charlie, who is generally known as a talented man.
Originally, the king’s position should have fallen to Messiah’s father, who was also the former Duke of the Bay and Charlie’s own brother.
The reason for this is because of Charlie’s birth problem. His mother was just an ordinary girl from a family without any background background. This resulted in him being the eldest son, but after he was born, he did not suffer too much. s concern.
After all, in the tradition of the mainland, marriages are popular in all countries. The marriage can directly bring a strong aid. With the support of another big family, the road to the upper ranks is naturally paved very easily. Messiah’s father Dorak is such a one. People, Dolac’s mother is the prince and daughter of the Land of Rain.
This also means that from the moment Dorak is born, he is destined to embark on the path of becoming a king. This is not something he can decide. It is a joint decision by the two countries, because only when Dorak becomes a king can he be able to Effectively strengthen the relationship between the two countries.
After all, the Land of Rain and Numa are bordered by most of the land, and both of them are under pressure from neighboring countries.
Once the two countries join forces, a powerful force must be formed, allowing them to stand on the mainland in a brand new posture.
According to the normal development trajectory, it is a matter of time for Dolac to be king. Even if Charlie is older than him and is his elder brother, but Charlie does not support his family. He becomes a king. Although he may try his best to govern, he will definitely lose the rain. The country is a powerful ally.
So Charlie is not favored, and Dolac has learned how to govern the country since he was a child.
Originally everything was developing in a good direction, but who knew that there was an accident halfway. The so-called accident was the sudden assassination of the old king. This caused the Numa country to suddenly fall into chaos. The Numa country at that time was very dangerous. of.
According to the ministers of the Numa Country and the Rain Country, they originally wanted to support Dorak as a successor and quickly settle the situation.
But who knew that Dolac at that time was obsessed with a woman, and he was unwilling to be the king, which made all parties particularly headaches.
In the end, Charlie came forward to calm the situation. Originally, Charlie had no ambition to become a king.
But Dolac trusted his half-brother very much. He gave all the power to Charlie, and finally made a public statement supporting Charlie to become king. This drew opposition from many quarters, and the rain Strong dissatisfaction from the Chinese side.
But Dorak persisted. With his strong support, Charlie successfully became the king, and Dorak was also canonized as the Duke of the Bay. This map is well organized.
The two brothers are sitting in the capital city, and the most prosperous area is in control. This could have been a good story.
But it changed later. Under the influence of time, everything changed, and Charlie changed.
At first he didn’t want to be a king at all, and he was even very repulsive of the throne, but gradually, he discovered the benefits of being a king.
After he became a king, he could do what he wanted unscrupulously. In the past, whenever he wanted to do something, some people would always oppose it.
But when he became a king, no one dared to oppose him. He seemed to open a brand new door all at once.
He saw the benefits of power, and he even became obsessed with this feeling. Before he knew it, he had no ambitions for power. He actually became a slave to power. He held power tighter and tighter. At this time, someone told him that Dolac had a great reputation.
Under his governance, the river bay area became more and more prosperous. People in the river bay area only knew that there was a duke of the river bay, but they did not know that there was a king.
And at this moment, there was a voice saying that it was Dolac who was the king back then. It was Charlie who used a despicable method to successfully get the kingship. There were more and more voices questioning him, which made Charlie more and more. I got more and more panicked.
Charlie was a little scared at first, he was afraid of losing his position, losing his power, once all was lost, then he would go back to the old days!
He gradually became no longer young, he had lost himself in power.
After feeling the pressure brought by Dolac, he suddenly decided to do something to stabilize his position.
And the way to stabilize his position is very simple, the only threat to him is his brother Dorak.
So as long as Dolac is solved, isn’t it good?
As a result, Dorak, the young Duke of the Bay, was killed by the thieves when he went out to calm the thieves.
But how did the mere thieves fight the Duke of Dorak’s personal guard?
It was the people he sent out that really started, Dolac was dead, his power was stabilized, and he was really excited for a while!
But after a few years, he was confused again, and he was a little confused again.
Is he correct?
Who put him on the throne in the first place? If Dorak really coveted his power, how could he cede the throne to him?
Charlie began to reflect on himself, on the wrong things he had done, and finally he wanted to understand.
Sure enough, I lost myself in front of the desire for power, and lost too many things.
So when he noticed that his body was getting worse, and when the lamp had run out, he decided to do something to make up for the mistakes he made in the past. That’s why he took the current Duke of River Bay and he was also him. The Messiah, his niece, summoned to the city of Ze…
