The sun has set, and the crescent moon has risen.

The night in the North District of Royal Dragon City was dim and hazy, and by the pale moonlight, Ke Lin walked alone on a deserted street.

The scenes that happened during the day were constantly replayed in his mind, and all kinds of doubts lingered in his mind, making Colin unable to fall asleep at all.

Since he couldn't sleep, Ke Lin left the Phoenix Palace and wandered around the Royal Dragon City.

Of course, it is not accurate to say that he is hanging out, because he still has a purpose.

dong dong dong.

Colin knocked on the gate of a courtyard with a dove bearing an olive branch, the emblem of the White family.

With a creak, the door opened, and an old man who looked like a butler came out. After seeing the Viscount dress on Colin, he quickly saluted and asked, "Dear Viscount, how can I help you?"

"I'm Colin Angell, is Master Grace here?"

"Yes! Viscount Angele, please come in!"

Bachelor Dawn did not live in the Phoenix Palace with Vera and Colin, but lived in a mansion of the White family in Royal Dragon City. Although it was not big, it was also a good place to stay.

The main figures of the White family, such as Viscount White and others, are all in their own territory, and the Bachelor of Dawn lives here, so Colin's visit this time is not an official visit, so there is no advance notice.

Under the leadership of the housekeeper, Colin walked up the stairs to the second floor.

At this time, the attendant who went to report the letter had already brought over the Master Dawn.

"Lord Viscount, why didn't you tell me in advance that you were coming, so I was ready to entertain you."

Colin waved his hand and said, "We don't need to pay attention to these red tapes between the two of us, just hope that it doesn't disturb you."

"of course not!"

Maester Dawn led Colin into the study, and then had the squire serve two cups of coffee and some dried fruit.

Colin's eyes swept around the study room. The layout of the room was relatively simple. A sheepskin scroll was spread out on the writing table.

There were quills, ink, and lacquer seals beside him, and it seemed that when Colin came, Maester Dawn was writing a letter.

What surprised Colin the most was that there were nearly a thousand books on the wall.

In this world without printing, the value of books is comparable to gold, and the number of books in the collection has become a symbol of family heritage.

Noticing Colin's surprised gaze, Bachelor Dawn explained with a smile: "These books were copied from the library of the academy when I was studying at Baita Academy."

"It's amazing!" Colin exclaimed.

In comparison, the study room of the Angele family is too shabby, and there are not many books at all. If it hadn’t occupied the Ice Rock City and received the library of the Su Duo family, I am afraid that the books in the Red Fort still do not have a Bachelor of Dawn. There are many people in the study room.

After taking a sip of coffee, Colin turned to the topic and asked, "You should also know what happened in the Cathedral of Light today, right?"

"Of course. This matter has already spread throughout the city, and I also know that even Prince Lehi's mansion has been taken over by the city defense army, and all the people inside have been expelled."

"Hehe, moving so fast?"

"It should be someone who saw the wind and turned the rudder and fell into the ground."

Colin put down the coffee cup, stretched out his body on the sofa, and asked, "What do you think of this murder of Archon Latome? Do you also think that Prince Lahey did it?"

Bachelor Dawn smiled and said, "Prince Leahy had a motive for murder, and now the autopsy has found evidence that he can't justify. In this way, it doesn't matter whether he murdered or not."

"Indeed." Colin's eyes flashed and he asked, "But if he was wronged, who do you think is most likely to be the one who carried out this framing?"

"If Prince Lehi was framed..." Bachelor Dawn hesitated for a while, "Then Reinhard the Great is the most likely culprit!"

Colin showed a faint smile and asked again, "Because he has the most profit?"

"Yes." Maester Dwayne nodded, but didn't say much.

Ke Lin also realized that perhaps many smart people in Yulong City have seen through the scene of today's Holy Light Cathedral, but the trap set by the emperor is too ingenious, no one can solve this mystery, so only Can watch Prince Leahy become a "murderer".

"Then do you think that Emperor Reinhardt's regaining control of the imperial government is a good thing or a bad thing for us?"

"It's a good thing." Maester Dawn replied without hesitation.

"Why?" Colin was a little confused by the confidence of the other party.

Although Bachelor Dawn also judged before that Emperor Reinhardt is indeed more inclined to let Vera inherit the position of Duke of the North, but that is when Prince Leahy is still there, Emperor Reinhardt needs to win over the mages to check and balance his own. uncle.

But now, Prince Leahy has been discredited by this murder case, and everyone has betrayed his relatives, completely staying away from the political situation of the imperial capital. In this case, Vera's role is much smaller.

So in Colin's view, the downfall of Prince Leahy was a bad thing for Vera.

This is also the doubt that arose in Colin's heart when Emperor Reinhardt agreed to canonize Vera as the Duke of the North in the carriage today.

Master Dawn looked into Colin's eyes and said seriously: "Because His Majesty the Emperor needs a strong northern border as an ally."

Colin's expression changed slightly, and he fell into contemplation.

On the carriage today, some series of operations of the emperor and the queen, especially to let Prince Harrison and Princess Judy take Colin as their teachers, are indeed very clear to win over.

At that time, Colin was very puzzled. Now, when he saw that Master Dawn also saw this, he quickly asked: "Why does Your Majesty need a powerful Northern Territory as an ally?"

Maester Dawn did not answer directly, but instead asked: "Lord Viscount, who do you think is His Majesty's biggest enemy after successfully expelling Prince Leahy?"

After thinking for a while, Colin felt that the alien races outside the empire were not big enemies, unless the orcs could really build a third empire.

If you think about it this way, the emperor's biggest enemy must come from within the empire.

Colin wanted to talk about the Senate, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that the Senate could at most cause some constraints to the emperor, and it was not a big enemy.

Moreover, if it is to deal with the Senate, there is no need to work so hard to win over the North.

Immediately, Colin had a flash of inspiration and blurted out, "It's the church!"

Bachelor Dawn smiled and nodded, "That's right!"

Colin sat up straight, all kinds of thoughts running through his mind.

He certainly understood the reason why Emperor Reinhardt was hostile to the church. The struggle between imperial power and theocratic power had begun almost from the very beginning of the Shining Empire's founding.

The San Lorenzo family, and even the entire imperial aristocracy, have an attitude of dependence and vigilance towards the church.

They need the church to build a bridge to communicate with the gods, so as to be promoted to knights, but at the same time, they are always vigilant about the excessive expansion of theocracy.

The reputation and prestige of the church among the people is too lofty. If left unchecked, the emperor will easily become a decoration, and the major lords will also become the marionettes of the church, the shepherd dogs who manage their people for them.

Of course, due to the special dependence between the two parties, the ultimate goal of the royal family is definitely not to eradicate the glorious church, but to limit the power of the other party to the church, and not to point fingers at secular government affairs.

Somehow, Colin suddenly recalled that when he was in Silvermoon City, he deliberately planted a seed of rebellion against the church in Prince Harrison's heart in order to retaliate against Queen Midella for provoking his relationship with Queen Elsa.

Perhaps it was at that time that Queen Midella decided that he was an ally who could win over.

But then, Colin suddenly realized something. When he looked at Bachelor Dawn again, his eyes suddenly became extremely sharp, and he asked in a deep voice, "Is it the royal family who sent you to the North?"

Bachelor Dawn's face changed slightly, after hesitating for a moment, he nodded and said:

"Yes."

Colin's face darkened instantly.
