Chapter 27 The Face in the Shadow

Three days later.

The sky was dark, cloudy, and rainy.

The earth is black and bleak.

The coffin was black and was carried by the soldiers towards the cemetery outside the city.

Behind the coffin, there was a long procession, and at the front were naturally two princes, William and Richard, followed by the big and small nobles of the Blue Lion City, as well as the lords who came from all over the Blue Lion Kingdom in a hurry.

The atmosphere was solemn and solemn. A group of people walked on the muddy road with difficulty, and no one spoke. There was a "crack" sound of cold rain falling on the ground all around. The rain was like mourning for King Downas. It had been raining for three days, and the temperature had dropped by more than ten degrees. Among the walking crowd, white steam was constantly exhaled from the nose and mouth.

It was bound to be a terrifying funeral.

The funeral continued and the procession proceeded to the cemetery.

Surrounded by large yellow leaves in the birch forest, in an open space in the forest, the coffin was carefully placed into the excavated tomb.

The priest began to recite the eulogy, and dirt was poured into the tomb, followed by flower petals.

"You are being poured out now, and it's time to die..."

"Swish..."

You have fought the good fight, you have finished your race, you have kept the faith..."

"Swish..."

"From now on, the crown of righteousness will crown you, and the supreme glory will remain..."

"Swish..."

"The world will remember your greatness, the earth will preserve your body, the sky will hold your soul..."

"Swish..."

"You will become eternal..."

"Swish..."

During the eulogy, the tomb was filled bit by bit, and the soldiers took a large piece of turf and laid it down to ensure that there would be plants growing on the tomb, not a dead place.

After doing this, the accompanying people stepped forward one by one, and placed the mourning flowers in their hands in front of the tombstone, and the entire cemetery became gorgeous in a short time.

At the end of the funeral, some people closed their eyes in front of the tombstone and whispered something, recalling the death of King Downas. Some people leave quietly.

The eldest Prince William has been standing beside the tombstone. After putting down a bunch of flowers, he walked towards him slowly, walked to his side, lowered his head and whispered, "His Royal Highness, everything is ready."

William looked at Richard who was standing in the distance, but did not speak. After a long time, he murmured and asked, "Link, do you think I will be a good king, do you think I will do better than my father?"

"Of course!" The other party answered affirmatively.

"Are you alone, or is it everyone else?" asked Prince William.

"The eldest prince, everyone! Everyone thinks that you will be better than King Downers." The other party replied.

"Huh..." William let out a breath, his eyes flashed, then turned his head, looked at the other party, and said only one word, "Okay."

"Yes!" The other party's eyes suddenly showed a large group of light.

...

The funeral was over, and Richard returned to the palace.

The captain of the guard, Edward, led the entire guard to escort Li Cha back. As soon as he entered the palace, he was stunned for a moment. Looking at the empty hall, he couldn't help but say, "People... people?"

The maids who usually filled the hall and made various experimental materials for Li Cha were all gone.

Li Cha said lightly, "I've given them a long vacation."

"Huh?" Edward was still stunned.

Richard walked into the laboratory, and Edward followed closely.

Richard took out a black wooden box and began to put various experimental medicines and some small experimental utensils in it. While busy, he said: "Dear Father, His Majesty King Downers is dead, dear brother. —His Royal Highness William is about to become the new king,

Then I should leave too. "

"His Royal Highness is going to the fief?" Edward asked tentatively. To be honest, Li Cha's fief has not been settled, and it is too early to start packing now.

Li Cha said noncommittally: "Since you are leaving, then naturally you have to travel lightly. If you can't take them, let them leave."

Richard continued to clean up. After cleaning up the laboratory, he went to the bedroom on the second floor to clean up. Edward still followed.

Putting "The Chapter of Monroe" and some scrolls into the box, suddenly there were cluttered footsteps outside the palace, not a few people, dozens of people, but hundreds of people.

Hundreds of soldiers surrounded the entire palace!

Li Cha glanced out the window, and withdrew his gaze not surprised, and kept packing. Edward's eyes shrank suddenly, and he breathed a little too quickly: "His Royal Highness, these people... these people... seem to belong to His Royal Highness, as if... the eldest prince is going against you!"

The next moment, without waiting for Richard's order, Edward had already shouted, shouting to all the guard soldiers: "Guard all the entrances and exits of the palace, don't let them rush in, and protect the safety of His Royal Highness!"

"Yes!" The soldiers of the Guards were nervous and flustered, guarding all the entrances and exits of the palace.

In the bedroom, Richard's face was calm, and he put one thing after another into the wooden box.

Edward looked at Richard's calmness, but couldn't help it, and said, "His Royal Highness, let me cover you and rush out. Although I don't know why His Royal Highness did this, but taking advantage of the fact that there are not many of them, There is still a chance to rush out!"

"Don't worry, wait a little longer." Richard said, turning around, with his back to Edward, he took down a few books and scrolls on the shelf.

Edward looked at Richard's back, his expression stunned, and then became complicated. He let out a long breath, his eyes flashed, his teeth bit his lip, and his hand fell on the hilt of the long sword at his waist.

...

over a month ago.

In the palace of Prince William, a simple dinner is going on.

William was talking. Beside him, a figure listened carefully, the lights were dim, and his face could not be seen clearly.

Suddenly, William's voice became solemn: "I asked you to come, but there is no other meaning. I want to be a good brother and protect his safety. No matter what he does, as long as it is not too much, I will obey him. At the same time, I also want to Be a good king and protect this country. So!"

The figure was shocked, and the whole person moved forward, exposed to the light of the candle, revealing a face: a head of gold hair, the face of a young man in his twenties, a kindness that seemed to be able to dissolve all malice On his face, with a very serious and respectful look-Edward Angele!

"If I had to choose between a good king and a good brother, I would choose the former. Originally, there was no conflict between the two, but my younger brother was so smart that I was afraid.

He's not keen on power and doesn't want to be king so I can have the chance to be king. But what if... what if he suddenly became interested one day? My father asked me to give him a large piece of territory and give him enough freedom. In that case, I don't know what he's doing in the territory.

I was really scared. One day soon, when I woke up, he had already brought a powerful army to the city, and he had even breached the palace, with his long sword on my neck. I believe that when the time comes, he will kill me like a chicken without blinking his eyes.

He's cold-blooded, he's been like that since he was a kid. Called my dear brother, and called my father His Majesty the King. Behind politeness is extreme alienation. I don't think he ever considered himself a younger brother, a son, but a stranger.

It is true that he, the 'stranger', did not do anything out of the ordinary, but I am not at ease. Because of his indifference to life, it really scares me. Three years ago, when blood flowed all over his palace, he didn't even change his expression, he just watched it calmly. Six months in captivity, too.

Such people are really terrible. So, you have to do one thing for me, that is... Find the opportunity to kill him. I will create opportunities for you, but you have to work hard on your own. As long as it is done, then your family's previous affairs can be forgiven, and I will guarantee the safety and interests of your family. Anyway, do it well! "

Edward's expression changed a few times, and then he replied firmly: "Yes!"
