To Four Thousand Years Later

v3 Chapter 13: volunteers take the bait

When Charles woke up from his long-awaited sleep. He heard every bell in the city of Ashen ringing.

The king is dead.

Before Charles was about to wake up, his psionic power had given him an early warning. He felt that many people wanted his life. But when he opened his eyes in confusion, and saw Floros standing beside his bed...he knew that no matter who suddenly showed killing intent towards him, he would not be able to hurt him.

Pass…

Are you fishing, Floros?

Charles opened his eyes, and the first sentence was this.

"Your description is very apt, my lord.

Floros said with a smile: "And, I have another piece of good news here. As I said...you are His Majesty now.

"I see.

Charles nodded, and replied softly: "Also, explain to me what happened. And how you dealt with it...and why I'm so weak.

"Yes, Your Majesty.

Floros responded obediently and helped Charles up. Now Charles is leaning against the pillow weakly, his face is pale, and his lips are bloodless. Those arms that could strangle a horse, but now the muscles on them are trembling slightly, can't even block the water cup. Of course, this is all temporary, a kind of camouflage.

Charles could recover instantly if he wanted to. But showing appropriate weakness can well expose a group of idiots with backtesting. Then follow the vines to catch those unstable factors and hidden traitors and traitors one by one.

"Well, this plan is fine. Charles nodded and promised: "Under the premise of ensuring safety and not playing it off, it is still necessary to act weak appropriately. You can use me as bait, I agree. "

Those fish with insufficient IQ balance. Seeing that Charles is dying and drowsy, what should he do in private, who to contact, and who has secrets with whom. Department... can be searched by Mr. Floros, who has become a tab. Although demon gods cannot directly penetrate people's hearts, they can often get the answers they want through other methods.

For example, Baal's spiritual hints, Baimon's omniscience of paper records, and Floros's foreknowledge of the number of material flows, etc.

…that's because she really is a witch. And she was indeed the assassin who murdered Injustice III.

However, she is not Du Juanhou's biological daughter, but the younger sister of Du Juanhou's wife, a pure-blooded Goth. The Tab key of Floros can clearly see the way the second daughter of Du Juanhou murdered Injustice III, which can be said to be very similar to the principle of the poison "flower and wine".

As one of the few maids who are good at cooking, she is responsible for cooking for the last ten days of each month. And among the foods she made herself, some of the most delicious foods were made according to Druid's potion, but the medicinal effect was too strong for a long time. It also puts a huge burden on the kidneys and liver.

After Buping III finally developed the symptoms of chronic renal failure, she hid several stone flakes in different rooms to form an array, which made Pepin III's body continue to deteriorate. He acted, but did not stop her, and even secretly concealed some traces for her. Even the "spell to restore health" he provided only used rubies to continuously restore the vitality of Pepin III, but did not treat his internal diseases. To describe it, it can be understood that this is a kind of debulf that continuously stacks layers. And as long as he is on the bed that Floros transformed for Pepin III, he will quickly recover his life. Until this kind of debuf stacks to a terrible number of layers that he can no longer get out of bed.

This also caused Pepin III's illness to worsen, but he died for almost a year. People with ulterior motives could not wait any longer but insisted on not dying.

And now after Frogus arrested the witch, he immediately asked people to search all over the castle, "In this case, even Du Juanhou will not know whether she assassinated me, after all, he has a guilty conscience.

Charles smiled slightly: "I bet he will run away. There is a good saying that the cuckoo is famous for its cowardice among birds. When the little birds gather to peck it, it will run away."

"My lord Aristotle said 'Yes.

Charles nodded and sneered: "Since I have decided to be a traitor in another country, but the identities on the surface have not stood between the two princes for a long time... He is already bearing the death penalty, but he is still worried about "burning his own life." "Flauros responded with a smile, "Maybe there are other lives.

"Many lives to come. And all the obstacles in front of me.

Charles whispered: "When he dies, I will pray for him. It doesn't matter if it works or not.

"Anyway, go ahead and do what you want, Floros.

The young king said softly: "For those who are undecided, or do not have a certificate...you bring them before me. I will personally judge their loyalty. As for now" Yes, Your Majesty. But I stopped her. I don't think you need to see her. "

Fraulos replied respectfully: "She was a bit... rude to your injury. She insisted that you were not killed by an assassin. You were colluded with the assassin to seize Frank's land and kill her husband Carloman. prince.

"No evidence?"

"Of course. It's just a guess. After all, Pepin III's imperial edict has not been issued. Carloman has not inherited his share of the land. Floros said solemnly: "And she has a child, who is four years old this year. It's a boy. Legally, he was entitled to inherit his father's share of the land. But he is not an adult now, so he has no right to participate in the land division...until he becomes an adult.

"She wants to raise him to manhood?"

"She's obviously smart, but not smart enough." Floros said with some regret.

"Then," Charles decided, "give her a hint. Make her smarter. At least know that she and her son stay in the castle, and I might kill her." Then, Find a way to let our Pope know about this, and then give him the escape route of their mother and child. But don't make it too obvious. Try to let their own spies find out about it.

He smiled slightly: "With such a big fat, I don't believe he won't take the bait.
