Whispers of the Gods

Chapter 95 Sigmund IV (3)

Mrs. Bean stroked her son's brown hair and kissed his forehead.

She looked up at Sigmund with those brown eyes that never flinched, and said slowly, "The last thing I need right now is your false sympathy."

"How is your son?" Sigmund asked guiltily.

"Like I said, I don't need sympathy."

Mrs. Bean repeated her words, but this time her tone was a little more menacing than her usual firmness.

But then, she slowly lowered her head again, held his son's loose hands, and asked, "What kind of poison has he been poisoned with?"

"I can't be sure, but judging from the symptoms, it should be Symbiosis Dream Flower." Sigmund said, "It is light red, tasteless, and has no antidote. People who drink a certain dose will never wake up."

Physicians have recorded in their books that the raw material of Symbiosis Dream Flower, a purple flower that can only grow in dark caves, was brought to Vivaria from a distant land by wizards who practiced evil witchcraft, and it was here Rooted on the Great Plains.

"I know what the symbiosis dream flower is, live with the dream, and sleep forever in the dream."

Mrs. Bean closed her eyes and sighed softly, "He is only 20 years old. Since he inherited Flatland City from his father three years ago, he has been waiting for the opportunity to show his talents."

"I'm very sorry."

Sigmund asked himself in his heart, why would he let this happen as a housekeeper?
Before dinner, Ansiwa told him in the tent that the blue dragon flames were not enough for the dukes and their families to drink, so he asked his servants to make do with red blood. The poison in the red stream.

"After what you've done, you don't deserve to apologize to me." Mrs. Bean said blankly, "'Blood Lily' has decided the fate of the Korva family, and she let me watch my only son slow down with my own eyes." Die slowly, this blood feud can only be repaid with blood."

Cruel, vicious, bloody. The nickname "Lion Lady" gave Lozaria was particularly harsh.

"I will write to your family in Alcurica," said Sigmund, "to reassure your brother, Count Cosma."

"This is to reassure yourself, Sigmund." Mrs. Bean saw through his thoughts, "Tell them I'm still alive, so they don't act rashly?"

After a moment of silence, Sigmund glanced at Jia Weijia, and reluctantly said: "If Duke Jessek doesn't wake up, Pingdi City needs a new heir."

The young Jessek Piasic had no heirs, and he wanted to propose to Queen Lozaria. Sigmund also felt that the marriage with the Piasic family would strengthen and expand the Corva family in the ashes The sphere of influence west of the hall, but the young duke drank the red blood with the symbiotic dream flower, and fell into a dream with his ambition.

"Wooden Chicken" Yakub Piasik's family is the only surviving lineage of the Black Chicken family. If Jesek dies, the duchy of Pingdi City should be inherited by his sister Jawija Piasik. She is the only Piasic.

"You murdered my husband in cold blood and I watched him and the rest of the Doctors fall."

Jawija Piasik's voice trembled with rage, and her fair face was filled with hatred. "Now my brother is unconscious and I don't want to see any of you."

Facing Jia Weijia's accusation, Sigmund frowned, feeling uncomfortable in his heart.No matter how serious the crime is, everyone should get a fair trial, let alone the innocent children of these dukes, they should not be imprisoned here, all this is a mistake.

Mrs. Bean snorted, "My son is not dead yet, you are starting to think about the future."

"You and I both know that after the death of 'Wooden Chicken', the person who holds the real power in Pingdi City is you, madam." Sigmund became bolder, "I will advise Her Majesty to stop, but if the war really comes , the Korva family needs more allies."

"I'll pretend I didn't hear your insult just now." Mrs. Bean showed a sullen expression, "I won't join hands with someone who poisoned my son."

"Or at least not sending troops, which would be in our mutual interest."

"It's a lie." Mrs. Bean disdainfully said, "The Piasic family and the Bean family refused to fall with the Korva family."

"You are the strongest woman I have ever met," Sigmund continued. "Your archery is famous throughout the kingdom, and I had the honor to witness you win the archery championship in the Hall of Ashes when I was young.

Zance Bean, daughter of Earl Gusta Bean, this is the first name of a female champion to be included in the book.You were then as much a respected and beloved warrior woman then as you are now. "

Sigmund knew that his flattery would have no effect on Mrs. Bean, but he had no choice but to attempt desperately to escape the fact that the Colvas were alone.

His words had no power at all, only the weakness that smelled of his imminent failure.

"I don't remember you." Mrs. Bean said flatly.

"Of course, I was just a servant at that time." Sigmund said with a slight smile, "Now, I am the Lord Seal Keeper of the Kingdom of Vivalia."

"I know King Izdor trusts you, he's a king with vision...but what about his 'Blood Lily' daughter?"

Mrs. Bean criticized every word, "From your conversation with Kondrade Welker, it seems that your queen doesn't trust you very much. After all, you don't know anything about poisoning."

There was a hint of frustration in Sigmund's blue eyes, and he immediately retracted it, but he was still noticed by the keen "Lion Lady".

"You haven't made up your mind yet, Lord Sigmund." Mrs. Bean told him confidently, "Doubt is a terrible thing, once you start to doubt yourself, you will never be able to confirm whether your choice is correct.

If you want to maintain your loyalty to your master, then you'd better stop asking yourself questions.Otherwise, you need to face your heart until you find what you think is the right answer. "

Mrs. Bean who was locked in the dungeon was right, Sigmund lowered his head in shame, he didn't behave like himself.

This is the truth that he should have realized by himself, but the "Madame Lion" who was reduced to a prisoner awakened him.

Before facing these dukes and their families and trying to convince them, Sigmund first needs to convince himself that he needs to face his heart and face Queen Lozaria.

"Thank you for your suggestion, Mrs. Bean." Sigmund nodded, "I will ask Her Majesty the Queen to change places for you and your children."

"The wheel of fortune has begun to turn, and no one can stop it," said Mrs. Bean sharply. "When the lions hear the wailing of the old lioness, think how they will roar."
