The most shameless alchemist in history - Chapter 890
Chapter 890
When Du Lei returned to the hotel, it was already late at night. At this time, Catherine, the four daughter of the Assassin family who had been fed and drunk, had fallen asleep, and only Rosa was still waiting for his return.
So when she saw Du Lei come to the entrance of the hotel with an umbrella, she was very happy.
“Teacher, are you finally back? Are you hungry? I prepared dinner for you.” Rosa immediately greeted her and said.
And took the umbrella from Du Lei’s hand.
“No need.” Du Lei sat at the table on the first floor of the hotel and poured a cup of steaming black tea.
It was still raining outside the window, endlessly, and I don’t know when it would stop. There was a chill in the night. Due to the always dark and humid rainy days, this caused some dampness in the hotel. There is a humid smell in the air. In this case, something that can absorb water droplets is needed to be placed in the corner of the room to absorb the moisture. Otherwise, the living will be damp. People are very uncomfortable.
“Teacher, what’s wrong with you? Why are you so worried?” Rosa asked curiously.
In her impression, Du Lei has always been a very calm person. No matter what the situation is, he can always solve it calmly and easily.
But tonight Du Lei looked worried, although Rosa thought she didn’t know this man very well.
But I always feel that he is not the same as usual.
“Do you know Jester?” Du Lei asked the name.
“Master Jester, Duke of the North? Of course I know this. He is the brother of the ancestor and the uncle of the current King Jeff.” Rosa thought for a while and wanted to explain.
She is a native of the country of rain, and she is very clear about the situation in the country of rain.
The last king of the Kingdom of Rain did his best to develop the Kingdom of Rain from a small barren country to a powerful country that the surrounding countries would not dare to underestimate. The people of the Kingdom of Rain loved the king very much.
In fact, the previous generation of Kings of the Rain Country is the same kind of people as the old King Charlie who has just passed away in the Numa Country. In fact, they also maintain good personal relationships.
However, compared to Charlie’s failure to solve the heir issue well until his death, the ancestor of the Rain Country handled this issue very well.
He has three sons in total, one more than Charlie. They are the eldest son Denis, who is more than brave and lacks strategy. He also has no ambition to inherit the throne. He went to the border early to lead soldiers, the second son, Jeff. , That is, the current king, he has the ability to become a king, and the Assassin family who was in power at that time also supported Jeff, and he naturally became the new king of the Kingdom of Rain.
And the third son is Jeter, a guy who knows the idleness all day long. He is no stranger to Jeter Duley, because Duley had met Jeter at Maple Leaf School more than nine years ago.
Although Jeter was ambitious and wanted to become a king, he still competed with Jeff for some time. Of course, due to the support of the Assassin family and the limited ability of Jeter himself, he still failed in the end. .
After the death of the former king of the Kingdom of Rain four years ago, Jeff naturally became the new king. In the beginning, Jeff was also diligent in government affairs and tried his best to govern.
He vowed to become a good king like his father. This situation lasted for three years. During this period, the country of Rain was also thriving.
But three years later, that is, a year ago, Jeff suddenly changed his temperament. He was no longer diligent in politics, became lazy and mediocre, had fun all day, and did many absurd things.
At that time, Karen was the patriarch of the Assassin family and also the prime minister of the Kingdom of Rain. Of course, he had another identity, he was Jeff’s teacher.
He persuaded Jeff to handle government affairs well, let the country of rain develop well, inherit his father’s mantle, and make the country of rain more prosperous.
But Jeff, who had always respected Karen in the past, couldn’t listen to Karen’s words at all. At the beginning, he was still submissive on the surface, but he didn’t take it seriously.
But later, he didn’t take Karen seriously on the surface. He reprimanded Karen many times and accused Karen of not taking him as a king in his eyes.
In desperation, Karen had no choice but to resign, hoping to force Jeff in this way and make him change his past, but Jeff readily accepted Karen’s resignation.
Moreover, he recklessly planted his confidant to the key position and expelled all the upright ministers, which caused the originally good Rain Country to suddenly become smoggy.
People have great opinions about this, but Jeff has also set up a spy, but anyone who speaks badly about him will be arrested and thrown into prison.
This caused the entire country of rain to be very repressed, and people dared to be angry but did not dare to speak. This situation continued for a whole year later.
Karen couldn’t sit idly by. He has always been a guardian in the eyes of the people of the Kingdom of Rain. He made suggestions, hoping that Jeff could handle government affairs well, and recommended some capable ministers.
However, not only did Jeff fail to appoint these ministers, he even arrested these ministers who were able to do things, which was really terrible.
For this reason, Jeff decided that Karen had other intentions, and ordered all the Assassins to be arrested. Only then did the guards of the royal capital come to Drizzle City to arrest people.
“Jester, he wants to overthrow his nephew, which is the rule of Jeff. The ghost Mr. Ghost appears to be under Jeff’s, but he secretly took refuge in Jester and invited me to work for Jester. “Du Lei said calmly.
“Duke Jester… is he going south to take the throne?” Rosa said with a frown.
“You don’t seem to be too surprised?” Du Lei asked rhetorically.
“Actually, this is not a secret. Master Jester failed to fight for the throne, and he has always been worried about it, and he has recharged his energy in the north. Many people have rumored that Master Jester will seize the throne. For this reason, Jeff Your Majesty is also displaying heavy troops on the border with Master Jester to defend against the northern army.” Rosa nodded and explained.
“Since the entire Land of Rain knows that Lord Jester is going to rebel, but Jeff is only defending him, but can’t come up with a substantive way to deal with him?” Du Lei thought this was a bit interesting, because but When a new emperor takes the throne, he will certainly not ignore the local power faction.
Especially the ambition of Jester, the Duke of the North, has reached the point where everyone knows.
But it’s also very strange that Jeff didn’t make a response.
“In fact, His Majesty Jeff has taken some measures against the north. He intends to gradually encroach on the northern forces. It was only two years ago that Master Jester was furious. He planned to fight with His Majesty Jeff for life and death, but he didn’t do it later. I know what caused Master Jester to endure it. Until a year ago, His Majesty Jeff’s temperament changed drastically, and the action against the north was also shelved, and Master Jester became more unscrupulous.” As Du Lei’s secret agent in the Rain Country, Sha, and she is a member of the Rain Country, knows all about the information in the Rain Country.
“It seems that this point in time a year ago was very critical.” Du Lei said thoughtfully.
“Then teacher, what did you plan?” Rosa asked cautiously.
“I agreed to Mr. Ghost’s proposal.” Du Lei replied calmly.
“What? I promised Mr. Ghost? That is to say to work for Lord Jester?” Rosa was taken aback.
“It’s almost like that, why, is there any problem?” Du Lei asked rhetorically.
“This… Teacher, you must have your reasons for doing things.” Rosa responded softly.
“Reason? Okay, it’s too early. Let’s rest early. Tomorrow morning, I will go to the north with that Mr. Ghost.” Du Lei said softly.
“Teacher Du Lei, are you walking in such a hurry? Don’t you stay a few more days?” Rosa couldn’t help asking.
“There are still important things to do, so I won’t wait much.” Du Lei shook his head.
“Then can I go with you, Teacher Du Lei?”
“No, you just stay here. I can go alone. Okay, let’s go and rest.” Du Lei went upstairs soon.
When he passed the corner of the stairs, he looked at the misty drizzle outside the window.
The evening breeze is blowing in gusts, it is very cool, this is really a long rainy season!
When Du Lei returned to the Rosa Hotel, Spectre was in a particularly good mood, because he had done two things today.
One is that Jeff’s minions, the Swift Assassination Group have been solved. If he takes action against the entire Swift Assassination Group himself, although he can also solve the entire assassination group, one reason is that he himself might have to pay. Not a small price.
Another reason is that his current identity is Jeff’s person. If he makes a move, he will probably expose himself for Jester.
And the other thing that made him happy was pure surprise, because the famous Du Lei actually agreed to join Jester’s camp.
This can make the ghost ecstatic, because it is undoubtedly even more powerful.
Their action to seize the Kingdom of Rain is bound to be even smoother!
“Do you really believe that young man?” asked a shadow behind the ghost shortly after Du Lei left.
“Of course I believe, why don’t you believe it?” Spectre asked back.
“Don’t forget his relationship with Kelly.” Shadow reminded.
“Relation? Now that the Assassin family has been abandoned by Jeff, Jeff is really an idiot. With such a strong help from the Assassin family, he said to get rid of it. What is the difference with cutting off one of his own arms? It’s also fortunate that he did such a stupid thing. Otherwise, we wouldn’t get the support of those great nobles. Jeff’s approach chilled many nobles, which led to them being introduced into our camp. Lord Lei and Kelly have some friendship, but the friendship is based on interests. What kind of benefits can the Assassin family provide now? But we are different. We can give Lord Du Lei a lot of things, such as Wealth, such as status, can even give him land in two provinces and give him the title of nobility in the country of rain. These are things that the Assassin family can’t give!” Spectre said with certainty.
“I hope you are right, but many things are not as simple as you think.” Shadow shook his head, still reluctant to agree.
“Look at it, a great era is coming. The previous action in the Snow Country failed, but in the Rain Country, it will definitely succeed!” Ghost smiled, his voice especially in the dark The shocking and frightening!
The next morning, just after dawn, when Catherine yawned and went downstairs to have breakfast, she found Rosa had been looking at something at the door.
“Rosa, I’m hungry, when should I eat, and what are you looking at there?” Catherine asked curiously.
“I didn’t look at anything. The breakfast is ready and I will bring it to you right away.”
“By the way, the person yesterday was Du Lei. I thought about it carefully last night. In fact, I felt that although he was not as tall and strong as I imagined, he looked pretty good when I took a closer look. I have to apologize for what I said wrong yesterday.” Rosa said seriously.
“Ms. Du Lei? He has left.” Rosa said softly.
“Leaving? What is he going to do? When will you come back?” Catherine only worked as Du Lei, just like yesterday, going out to do errands, and she will return soon.
“Master Du Lei went a long way this time, and I don’t know when he will come back.” Rosa said softly, biting her lip.
“Huh? He actually left without saying hello to me. It’s too much. I’m angry!” Catherine was very angry.
“Then I will see him in the future? He is my sister’s friend, right? I have heard a lot about him before, and I want to ask him if those things are true.” After Catherine became angry, she was a little bit disappointed.
“Maybe I can see it, I don’t know, but Master Catherine, what do you want to ask if it is true, maybe I can answer you for the teacher.” Rosa shook her head slightly, and soon Asked again with a smiley face.
“This is a lot, there are so many things…”
The morning sun shone on Catherine’s curious face.
At this time, Du Lei had already boarded the train, and he and the ghost went to the north of the Kingdom of Rain to meet the Lord Jester, the Duke of the North.
“Master Du Lei, what’s the matter with you?” In the carriage, Spectre couldn’t help asking when seeing Du Lei’s thoughtful look.
“Nothing, I just have a little expectation for the future.” Du Lei shook his head and said softly.
“Are you looking forward to it? Hahahaha, Master Jester is definitely looking forward to seeing you too!” Ghost said with a laugh.
The scenery keeps going backwards out of the car window, and in two days, they will arrive in the north!
