Chapter 203 Kenan's Intuition(1/2)
It is never a trivial matter for the emperor to die, and it is said that it is related to the future of his master.
So Will did not dare to pause at all along the way, and rushed to Silver Light City with rushing speed.
As a servant, he knew very well that once the next failure to fight for the throne, the eldest prince would face two paths.
Either surrender obediently, whether to live or die, it can only depend on the mood of the new emperor.
Or raise troops and win the throne through force!
If you choose to surrender, as your confidant, your fate will definitely not be much better.
If you choose to raise an army, you have to follow the battlefield, and it will be a life-threatening death.
So Will hopes that the army brought by Selena can shock the old guys in Hesler and obediently let the eldest prince ascend the throne.
Even from an objective perspective, the eldest prince is the only candidate for the next emperor.
Whether it is temper, personality, talent, martial arts, the eldest prince is far behind the other three princes.
Nowadays, the reason for the eldest prince that many people do not support is actually very simple and strange - because the eldest prince is not good-looking!
That's right, the reason is so weird!
The old guys all think that the emperor represents the face of a country and that he is so ugly that he cannot be an emperor.
If Will traveled to Earth, he would have empathized with the history of the female emperor. After all, there were so many people who hacked her in later generations, and most of the reasons for blaming her was just because she was a woman!
But now Will doesn't care about that much, he just rides his horse and strives to reach Silver Light City as fast as possible.
………………………………………
At the same time, Gong Xiang’s family.
Kennan sat at his desk without saying a word.
The crazy knock on the door in the middle of the night yesterday woke Kenan, who was sleeping in the innermost part of the second floor. Just as he was about to ask who was waking up from the middle of the night, the servant hurriedly pushed open the door and ran in.
"Bastard!" Kennan, who was awakened, shouted, "Do you know when it is now?"
"Master! Your Majesty has passed away!" The servant knelt on one knee to report.
"What?"
Then, Kenan got on the carriage without even having time to put on his clothes and entered the palace overnight.
As the palace prime minister with the greatest power under the emperor, Kainan kept the carriage in front of the bedroom unimpeded.
After entering the bedroom, I found that there were already people around the bed.
In addition to the guards, more than a dozen imperial doctors shook their heads and sighed.
The queen sat next to her handkerchief and wiped her tears with her handkerchief, while the concubine who was in charge of the bed stood aside with trembling all over, as if she had lost her soul.
Seeing Gong Xiang come in, everyone seemed to have found their backbone and looked over with anticipation.
After all, the Gong Xiang was the Gong Xiang. He waved his hand very calmly and asked the imperial doctor, "How is it?"
The imperial doctor shook his head and said nothing.
"What about the cause of death?" Kenan asked.
"I can't find out..." The imperial doctor shook his head, "It looks like his heart stops beating suddenly, there is no sign of poisoning, and there is no wound on his body..."
When I heard the other person’s answer, I don’t know why, maybe it was a kind of intuition.
Selena's face suddenly appeared in Kennan's mind.
At this moment, Kennan had goose bumps all over his body, and then he shook his head suddenly. Although she did have that ability, she should not be so bold.
Moreover, according to her own reasoning, Selena should target the church, not the royal family.
But for some reason, Kennan always felt that this matter should have something to do with Selena.
Gong Xiang is in charge of the imperial intelligence agency and is very clear about Selena's reputation among the people.
Thinking of what James told her about Selena, combined with her usual style, Kennan always feels a very strange feeling.
After all, she is different from Nitia.
Niteya came from a wealthy family and had never seen people's hearts since she was a child, so it is normal to be simple and kind.
But Selena is a civilian, and she should have seen many dark sides of human nature when she was a child.
In addition, he started to go to the battlefield at the age of twelve, and became the commander at the age of twelve. To put it bluntly, Selena has killed countless people.
So even if she doesn't take the initiative to bully people and protect the weak, it's hard to imagine that she will do this for strangers.
Judging from her folk comments, Kennan always feels that she shouldn't have this kind of personality.
But of course this cannot be said. After all, now that the emperor has just died, such words will make others take the handle and say that he is unjust.
After settling down the emperor's body, Gong Xiang asked his servants to withdraw and sat down with the queen alone and chatted with him for a few words.
"The Queen's Crown, Your Majesty suddenly passed away, did he leave a suicide note?"
"No..." The queen shook her head while wiping her tears.
"You know that a country cannot be without a king for a day. Since things happen suddenly, you will decide the successor of the next emperor."
"this……"
"I know, but now is not the time to be sad. You must make this decision!" Kennan looked solemn.
"But... who is more suitable?" After all, the queen didn't understand this, so she asked subconsciously.
"I personally think that the third prince is good, honest, hardworking and studious." Kenan reminded, "But this cannot be decided by the subordinate. Everything is based on your arrangements!"
In fact, for Kennan, except for the eldest prince, no matter who inherited the throne, it had no effect on him.
Because those three candids are simply impossible to play with themselves, their status and rights can be further enhanced.
After all, although I am already the palace prime minister who is known as the first person under the emperor, both the left and the right prime minister are eyeing me.
If you know that your rights can be further increased, you don’t have to be afraid of those two old guys.
The only troublesome thing is the eldest prince. Sano is not a good-looking lamp. Once he gets to power, he will definitely fight against him!
…………
Kennan made an excuse to say that this was difficult for his subordinates to participate in this matter, so he left the palace and returned home, asking the queen to think about it himself.
But in fact, the queen is a dissatisfied person. Since she has made suggestions, it is quite possible for her to adopt them.
When Kennan returned home, he did not sleep, but sat in his study waiting for the news.
In this case, you will definitely not be able to sleep, so you can think about the follow-up.
According to the information in her hands, Seno and Nitia, the daughter of Honeysuckle, have recently been very close to each other, and have even reached the point where they ride a carriage together.
This is basically a foregone conclusion, so Seno is likely to receive support from Honeysuckle.
Although this is not something I want to see, it is not unsolvable.
The identity of the Grand Duke of Honeysuckle is actually very subtle. It can be said that he is one of the nobles who are still alive. He has made the greatest contribution and can be regarded as a member of Casger.
But he is the controller of other countries. From this perspective, he is an outsider.
So as long as they can find a way to stop Sano and Nitia from marrying each other, they can't become a family!
In this way, Leiga naturally had no reason to participate in the family affairs of the Kasg royal family.
But in this case, the only way to choose seems to be the simplest one.
"Come!" Kennan suddenly shouted softly.
"Master!" A servant pushed the door and lowered his head and agreed.
"Send someone to secretly tie up Nitia Lantes for me!" Kennan said, "Remember, even if the mission fails, you must not hurt her life!"
"As for order!" the servant agreed.
"Also!" Kennan thought for a while, "Hessler's Guards's Roka, and said that there may be bad things in the past few days, so that he can be ready for battle at any time!"
"As for your order!" The servant nodded suddenly and turned around and left.
Then Kenan took a deep breath. This was dangerous, but there was no way. Abigail died too suddenly and had no time to prepare.
He dared not kill Niteya because if she died, Raga would definitely march into Kasg.
But it doesn't matter if she is secretly imprisoned. As long as she is alive, Lei Jia will not act rashly.
………………………………………
On the other hand, the Alchemist Union.
Nitea slowly packed her things, opened the door and walked out.
The old man walking towards him looked surprised, "Oh, Nitia, are you leaving so early today?"
"Yeah!" Netiya smiled and nodded, "If I don't leave, I'll probably be there to catch me in a while."
"Hahaha..." Hearing her words, the old man laughed, "Don't worry, as long as you didn't cause any great disaster, no one dared to come to the Alchemist Union to commit rash!"
"This is hard to say..." Nitia kept walking out of the door with a relaxed and leisurely look on her face, and disappeared at the turn.
