Early the next morning.

Keith walked out of the room, and when he passed by the place where Valk removed his armor, his expression suddenly condensed, and he immediately called the butler to ask: "Where is Valk's armor and sword?"

Why are they all gone? !

Steward: "Master Keith, Master Walker..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a person who walked in from the door.

Walker seemed to sweat a lot, his thin clothes clinging to his body, showing strong muscles.

He was holding a sword in one hand and a dry cloth in the other, wiping his hair. He was puzzled and said: "Big brother, what do you want? I just practiced swordsmanship in the courtyard..."

As Walker spoke, he put the big sword in his hand on the table casually, and took the clear water he had prepared in advance by the butler and drank it.

Keith glanced at the butler.

The butler nodded: "Yes, Master Keith."

"Master Walker got up early to practice, and his armor also let the people move to the bedroom, saying that he would clean it himself."

Keith twitched his mouth slightly when he heard the words: "Nothing...I just thought you left home without saying hello."

Walker smiled: "How come, brother."

After a while.

Harry William also walked downstairs.

He found a proper reason to ask Walker to stay at home, and after the three-day mourning was over, it would not be too late to return to the territory with Desinia.

Walker agreed.

After this, Harry William left the mansion with satisfaction, while Keith William stayed at home.

Walker said to go back to the room to wipe and clean the armor.

As soon as he entered the room and closed the door, his face immediately sank.

He walked quickly to the window and looked out sideways, observing secretly and determining the number of guards around him from a high level of vision, and he had a general idea in his heart.

Walker did return to Shazoe's resting place in the middle of the night last night.

In the royal city.

Judit was worried about Xia Zoe sleeping alone, so he slept on the sofa inside and outside the little earl's house, and then was shaken by Walker who came in through the window in the middle of the night.

Walker quickly covered Udit's mouth that was about to yell out, and said inaudibly: "Hush, you must wake up Lord Earl, something is going on..."

Udit frowned and nodded, wondering why he came back at this time?

The two then awakened Xia Zoe who was sleeping soundly.

"What's the matter?"

Xia Zoe slept in a daze at this moment, sat up and scratched the print on his face from the pillowcase, tilted his head and yawned.

After rushing into the royal city for several days, he was already a little tired and very sleepy.

He immediately seemed to realize something, his eyes became slightly clear, and he looked at Walker: "Why are you back? It's not light yet."

Walker told Shazoe what he had heard in the first half of the night.

"...That's it, Lord Earl, Buss Ridges wants to kill the prince, control all the lords, and take the opportunity to seek the throne."

Xia Zoe digested the sudden conspiracy, and muttered: "The old thing is really not at ease."

Udit said, "Master Earl, what should we do now?"

Xia Zuoy frowned and thought for a while: "The former king was in good health before, and it seems that he could live for a few more years, but suddenly news of his death came unexpectedly..."

"The death of the king...will it have something to do with Buss Ridges?"

Walker thought: "It's very possible."

He said: "If the death of the ancestor is really related to Bath Riches, then all the lords of Gadaat will come to the king's city to mourn for the king... It should also be in his plan."

"The Duke has the right to control finances and regulate the royal city's guarding knights. Is it possible... Now the entire royal city of Kays is under the control of Bath Ritches?"

Xia Zuoyi's face was serious when he heard the words: "Will Bath Riggs secretly replace all the knights in the royal city with his own people?"

"If this is the case, we might have fallen into his trap from the moment we entered the city."

The more they think about it, the more they feel that this possibility is extremely great.

Buss Ridges is not a brainless person.

Since he intends to kill all the lords and kill the prince... he is bound to have a detailed plan beforehand.

Such as controlling the royal city, or even...

Xia Zuoyi said: "The lords will mourn the king for three days in the church."

"During this period, no unrelated people, including the knights and servants around the prince and the lord, will be allowed in during this period. There will be dedicated clergy or attendants in the church to serve the prince and the lord..."

"Walker, since your father said that everything will be over in three days, then they will definitely do it in these three days."

"The place for hands-on can only be in the church."

"Has Bass Ridges colluded with the bishop or the bishop's agent? Or both have... he secretly bought them?!"

In this way, it is estimated that the entire Royal City is under the control of Bath Ridges.

Udit said: "We have fallen into the wolf's den, but fortunately, Lord Earl, you arranged a group of soldiers outside the city to respond in advance."

"But how are we going to respond tomorrow?"

Xia Zuoyi said: "You cannot let the prince be killed."

"And those lords who don't know the truth are innocent. We can't escape, but they are still controlled by Buss Ridges..."

Such a situation would also be very unfavorable to him.

"If you really let Bath Riggs get the throne, with his hatred of me, and his coveting of salt drying in the sea...probably the first one would be to have Weissus and Fort Comoy, and give me casualties. You can send troops to fight against a crime that needs to be punished."

Udit and Walker nodded, and the Count was right.

Xia Zoe: "I must enter the church and find a way to remind the prince and other lords that in three days, Buss Ridges shouldn't do it on the first day..."

Judit interrupted Xia Zoe anxiously when he heard the words.

"But Lord Earl, Buss Ridges won't do it in the first day, but it is very likely that you will be imprisoned in the church and there is no way to leave. Your situation will be very dangerous..."

Xia Zoe shook his head.

But he had to do this, there was no other way.

If you give notice in advance, let alone say that the time is too late, after all, he will enter the church early in the morning to mourn for the king.

What's more, he can only have a chance to meet the prince in the church.

Moreover, he didn't know who all the lords were friends and enemies.

In case some lords inside have already taken refuge in Buss Ridges.

Then he informs it indiscriminately, which is equivalent to exposing what he knows in front of Buss Ridges, and it will be even more difficult to leave the city at that time.

Therefore, he must enter the church.

Xia Zoe: "Walker, in order not to be noticed by your father and brother in advance, I still need you to go back, when necessary..."

Walker: "I see, Lord Earl."

Walker sighed after thinking about it, then put on his armor, picked up the big sword, found Keith's room and entered, and found that he was really doing business in the room.

He quickly stepped forward and put the big sword on Keith's neck: "Brother, I have something you need to cooperate with."

Keith's body stiffened, then slowly relaxed, and said: "Walker, don't make this kind of joke with me."

"You should understand that I'm not kidding, brother."

Walker curled his lips and smiled: "You'd better not move, my hand is unstable, in case your neck is cut..."

Keith's face instantly cooled down, and he raised his head and asked, "What on earth do you want to do?"

Walker's expression also became indifferent: "Tell me your arrangement in the church, when do you plan to kill the prince, and when do you plan to control the lord?"

"Is Bishop Bolton yours?"

Keith's face changed, and he couldn't help blurting out: "How would you know?!"

Walker did not answer, but moved the sword closer to his neck: "Speak up, brother."

Keith's face kept changing.

He finally sneered: "Why, want to save Desinia?"

"It's late, not only the church, but the entire King City of Kaais is already under the control of Lord Duke... Lord Duke, has been planning for this day for a long time, and only allowed to succeed."

"Besides, at this time... the prince may have died long ago."

"what?!"

Walker did not expect that they would actually do it at the beginning of the mourning ceremony...

So, the lords will soon be controlled? !

He couldn't help being a little worried, but still calmly asked: "Which lords did Buss Ridges secretly buy?"

Keith sneered: "I won't say anything, you can kill me if you have the ability, my... well, brother, brother."

He paused word by word, seeming to be certain that Walker would not do anything to him.

Walker: "Brother, I hope you won't blame me."

When he finished speaking, he knocked Keith William with his sword hilt.

In the chapel of the **** of creation.

Xia Zuoy's face was a bit, no, it was ugly.

Because the prince died in front of him and the Marquis of Marco Keys.

He is fortunate now.

Fortunately, he was not alone in the innermost mourning room of the church.

This is the place where the princes mourned alone. It was far away from the mourning room where their lords were. It was too late to call for help or help.

Otherwise, the conspiracy of Buss Ridges has not been exposed, maybe he has been killed here now.

The Marquis of Marco Keys is the father of Nat Keys.

Nat Keys is also the noble young master he met after entering the royal city to offer the Shanghai water and salt method. The "seller" who wanted to kill Fernandi on the street but was bought by him with a gold coin.

Xia Zoe and Nat Case met by chance outside the church, recognized each other, and talked a few words along the way.

Later, Nat Keith’s father came to talk to Shazoe when he entered the church.

Marco Keys: "My son has the most rebellious character. He has been very disobedient since he was a child, but I think he had a very good attitude towards you just now... How did you meet?"

Xia Zoe: "Because of a slave."

Marco Case showed a surprised look: "I don't know what's going on?"

Xia Zoe wondered why he asked such things.

Marco Case sighed: "I used to be busy with all kinds of affairs, and it is inevitable that Nat...is a little negligent."

"He has grown up now, but his temperament is completely overwhelmed, and he has been dealing with a group of inconsistent people all day long. I, I now want to teach him well."

Xia Zuoyi nodded, briefly explained the "business" at the time, and said: "I think his attitude towards me is not because of this."

"Why is that?" Marco Keys wondered.

Probably because of...face?

Xia Zoe was about to speak, but suddenly saw someone walking towards the prince's mourning room, and soon disappeared.

He frowned, thinking about reminding Buss Riggs of the conspiracy soon, so he proposed that he had something to go to the prince.

Marco Keys nodded and went with him.

They went by coincidence, but they were also very unfortunate.

The person Xia Zoe saw just now turned out to be the killer of the prince.

Now that the prince is dead, he was slashed sharply in the neck, and blood was sprayed on the ground and walls, and the holy mourning room was set up to instantly turn into a murder scene.

But the murderer had not had time to escape, but they were found to be facing each other.

The murderer wore a black robe that a clergyman could wear, and his face was hidden. He was shocked when he saw Shazoe and Marco Keys.

In the next instant, he suddenly raised his knife and rushed towards Xia Zoe.

Fortunately, Marco Keys was by Shazoe's side. He had trained as a knight before, and he blocked the murder weapon with a single block.

After that, the murderer didn't fight with him more, looking for an opportunity to jump out of the window and ran away.
