At the first moment, Jiang Lu thought of Kang Qi Erbo.
But because he and Dectel were siblings, this made him feel a little ridiculous, so he didn't delve into this direction.
But now think about it, Zeus's wife Hera is also his sister. In this mythological age with many talented people, although it is strange, it is not unacceptable.
But his reaction was beyond Dectel's expectation.
"You already knew?"
"I can't say I know, I'm just guessing."
Jiang Lu said: "For some special reasons, I have always doubted the existence of Luger, the God of Light. Now my suspicion has been verified."
The special reason he mentioned was naturally the criterion for judging the rate of time passing.
Facts have once again verified the reliability of using this parameter to judge whether there is a god within the spiritual realm.
"You... aren't surprised?"
Dectel thought Jiang Lu would be shocked by this fact, but Jiang Lu's performance was very dull, which she couldn't accept.
It's like giving something you like to a friend, hoping to get approval, but the friend's reaction is "Oh, it's just so so." This is really hard to handle.
"It's okay. This kind of love between brother and sister is quite common in my hometown."
Jiang Lu was not surprised: "Have you ever heard of Yuan Zhikong?"
"No..." Hearing Jiang Lu's words, Dektel shook his head, his face full of gloom: "This is not love, this is the damn guy's shameful possessiveness at work. I hate it, but I can't do anything."
"Oh...then I understand." Jiang Lu nodded thoughtfully.
If this is the case, it can explain why Kang Qi Erbo is wary of Jiang Lu and wants to arrange for him to be monitored in the palace.
After all, Jiang Lu has a face that is not very reassuring.
It also explains why Dectel is afraid of Conchieber and avoids him.
Putting aside everything else, it can be judged from Dectel's attitude towards her that Conchieber was somewhat acting against the woman's wishes.
That is to say, in this era, he is the king and he is awesome. In an era when there is no cost to spread rumors, he still has so much evidence. As soon as the Little Red Book is posted, as soon as it is exposed on Weibo, as soon as the lawyer's letter is issued, as soon as the news is published, After a set of combo punches, your reputation will be ruined, right?
But even though he figured out Cu Chulainn's true life experience, Jiang Lu was still curious.
Why wasn't Cu Chulainn cursed?
Dectel also had little idea about this: "I'm not sure about this, but I'm sure that Conchieber must have done something, because when I was pregnant, he would let his servants do it every night. They would light a special aromatherapy for me, and then I would fall asleep. When I woke up the next day, I would feel nauseated all morning, as if I had eaten something unclean.”
Jiang Lu nodded: "The problem still lies with him. He should know how to break the curse, but he chose to hide it for some reason."
The conversation changed and Jiang Lu asked again: "But I didn't expect you to tell me like this. Aren't you afraid that I will say nonsense?"
Hearing this, Dectel's eyes suddenly became a little dim.
"It doesn't matter anymore."
"It doesn't matter?" Jiang Lu was puzzled.
"Conchiebo asked you to go out with Cu Chulainn, which means he has the intention to kill you, and once he makes a decision, he will complete it regardless of the cost.
You can never underestimate a person who can hide for years in order to achieve his goals, perfectly disguising himself as another person and never being seen through. "
Dectel looked at Jiang Lu with some pity:
"From the moment he decided to kill you, no matter what you did, it was all in vain.
When you go to the battlefield, he will definitely arrange a sharp knife to pierce your heart, and you will never be able to guard against it, because you have no idea whose hand this sharp knife is in.
But if you refuse to go to the battlefield, then as the musician who composed the "Ulster March", you have gained the enthusiasm of the people, but choose to retreat when Ulster really needs you, then he can justifiably execute you for taking advantage of him. A liar who profits from the people's patriotism.
No matter which way you choose, it's a dead end. "
"Ah? Is that so?" Jiang Lu was stunned: "But doesn't everyone enjoy the patriotic dividends like this? Why should I be executed?"
Dectel asked back: "Because such behavior is just a verbal patriotism to obtain benefits. Is it essentially any different from a betrayer who betrays the country?"
When Jiang Lu thought about it, it seemed that this was true, and he immediately became happy: "So you are sure that I won't live long, so you told me about this, and you want me to die and understand?"
"It can be regarded as my explanation of this short but unforgettable relationship."
Dectel sighed. Although he did not answer Jiang Lu directly, he still confirmed his question.
Jiang Lu couldn't help but clapped his hands: "You really don't have any way to live, Conchi Erbo, you are a ruthless silver man."
According to Dectel's interpretation of Conchieber, it goes without saying that even if this royal scandal is exposed now, it will definitely have no effect at all.
The facts are too shocking to be believed, not to mention that over the years, the knowledge that Cu Chulainn is the son of God has been deeply ingrained in the hearts of the Ulster people, and there are so many high-ranking people in Conchi. This statement was endorsed at Erb's behest and cannot be easily changed.
Once it comes out of Jiang Lu's mouth, everyone will immediately think that this is a smear on Alster's face. Conchie Erb will have more reason to attack Jiang Lu openly, and the situation will become more dangerous.
After thinking about it carefully, it was exactly as Dectel said, no matter what Jiang Lu did, it seemed that he would fall into a deeper trap of Conchie Erb.
Speaking of this, Jiang Lu finally made the direction clear.
The key to breaking the curse lies in Conchie Erb, but the problem now is that the current deadlock must be broken first.
Moreover, Conchieber was already murderous at this time, and it should be impossible to get the method to break the curse from him through peaceful means.
What should I do?
Just as Jiang Lu was thinking about his next plan, Dectel suddenly said, "I hope you won't blame me. After all, it was me who made you have to face death."
Looking at Dectel with a guilty look on his face, Jiang Lu didn't know what to say for a moment.
In fact, all this was because of Jiang Lu's goal, which gradually forced him to stand on the opposite side of Conchie Erb, but Dectel did not know this. She blamed everything that Jiang Lu suffered on herself. body.
Perhaps in her opinion, she was just tempted, because in a moment of impulse she forgot everything she was responsible for, and she killed a harp genius who was still young and had a bright future.
This was a real sin to her.
At this moment, Jiang Lu thought of something and asked tentatively: "Your late husband, Sultem, didn't he also die because of this incident?"
Dectel opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
"I think it's time for you to face your heart." Jiang Lu patted Dectel comfortingly: "This is not your fault, but always evading will only make the real culprit more aggressive and unscrupulous. Do you get me?"
But Dectel remained silent.
Jiang Lu just looked at her quietly, waiting to see if she could overcome the fear in her heart.
After an unknown amount of time, Dectel finally made up his mind.
"He...Sultheim..."
Dectel stammered, tears streaming down his eyes unconsciously:
"Conchieber made him Setant's adoptive father. Maybe he guessed something. After marriage, we have always been respectful to each other and have never crossed the line...
So I always felt guilty towards him...
That night...
That night...we all had some drinks...
He is my husband after all... and I gave him...
Later, I don't know how Conchirber got to know about this...
One day, while out hunting, Surtime fell off a cliff on his horse...
After that, I never dared to face Conchieber again and kept avoiding him. Due to my status and this incident, he couldn't force me to do anything...
I have managed to survive until now, but I really don’t know how much longer I can hold on…”
At this point, Dectel was already crying.
It can be seen that she has been suppressing it for a long time.
Jiang Lu sighed, hugged her into his arms, patted her back gently, and silently comforted this woman who was tortured to pieces by fate.
After an unknown amount of time, Dectel's sobbing gradually disappeared.
Perhaps it was because she thought Jiang Lu was about to die, or perhaps it was because she exposed her true and vulnerable side in front of Jiang Lu, which made her finally believe him wholeheartedly.
She made a request.
"Before you leave me and go to the battlefield, can you... spend one last time with me..."
As she spoke, her head was buried in Jiang Lu's chest, and she was too embarrassed to speak.
"I understand." Jiang Lu agreed to Dectel's request.
After all, he is not hard-hearted, he can also feel pity and sadness.
When Jiang Lu saw Dectel, who was already in pieces hidden under the glamorous appearance, he still felt compassion.
Not to mention that she provided so much important information, even if it was just for her poor fate, he wanted to do something for Dectel.
Seeing Jiang Lu happily agreed, Dectel seemed to have fulfilled some important wish, and his expression suddenly became a little relieved.
She leaned down and planned to untie Jiang Lu's belt.
But Jiang Lu stopped her.
"I have a better idea."
With that said, Jiang Lu took Dectel's hand and started walking towards the secret room.
Dectel looked puzzled, but showed no resistance.
But when she discovered that Jiang Lu's destination was actually the bedroom, she was still frightened.
She suddenly became very uneasy: "Wait, you are not planning to..."
"Yes, of course such matters must be resolved in the bedroom." Neither did Jiang Lutou, who was walking in front.
"Are you crazy?" Dectel was shocked: "Don't you know that his spies must have been watching you since you came out of the palace?"
"Of course I know."
Jiang Lu opened the bedroom door and pushed Dectel down on the bed:
"That's why I'm doing this."
He smiled a little fiercely:
"Since he has murderous intentions towards me, there is no need for me to coddle him. I just want to tear off his fragile face in front of him and put it on the ground to trample on!"
"But I..."
