After hearing this, he punched the desk: "Hahahaha... I thought I had to wait until the ban was lifted before I could punish you, but I didn't expect... Hahahaha, idiot!"
Excitedly, he walked around the side of the desk and strode out of the house: "Prepare the car!"
"As ordered!"
…………
The main road of the palace.
Avril and Biaou were standing at the foot of the roadside wall.
"Sister Wang, your secret method..."
"I know it myself."
"Okay." Seeing that she didn't want to talk, Biaou changed the subject, "Do you think Wang Xiong is... serious?"
"What's the point?" Avril looked at the flag flying above the main gate. "Even if he is a real person now, he will not let us go once the empire is stable."
"indeed."
After a brief silence, Biaoou asked again: "Did you spend the whole night in the capital yesterday?"
Turning her eyes to him, Avril asked curiously, "When did you start caring about these things?"
"My dear sister, you are not the type to wander around."
She lowered her head and said nothing, thinking about something.
The second prince understood everything: "Because of your junior fellow student?"
After his sister came back from a trip, she always mentioned a man named "Zhang Mu".
It would be a lie to say that I'm not curious about the man who captured Avril's heart.
So the second prince went to Mora privately to find out.
Since it wasn't something that needed to be concealed, Mora told him readily.
Mr. Porter's new student.
Biaoou was very surprised. After all, Potter had long ago made it clear to the outside world that he would no longer accept students.
There is no doubt that Zhang Mu is talented because he can set rules for himself.
Therefore, even though the two had not met, he was already full of anticipation and wanted to see what kind of genius he was.
But just over a month later, bad news came from afar.
Zhang Mu was tried by the local bishop for violating the church ban.
From that day on, Avril's spirit declined at a visible rate, and she lived in seclusion in the palace and rarely appeared in public.
His subsequent actions became increasingly crazy.
Biaoou was powerless to change anything and could only watch her gradually become indifferent.
So when he learned that Avril had been shopping all night last night, he immediately guessed that it was because of Zhang Mu, whom he had never met before.
Although there is no evidence.
In response to his doubts, Avril was very frank: “That day will come soon.
Maybe after I die, I can meet my junior fellow apprentice?
I wanted to introduce him to the royal capital, the city where I was born and lived my entire life.
But when I had this idea in mind, I realized that I was not very familiar with this city, so I should get to know it first and then tell him. "
Biyao lowered his head: "He will be very happy to listen to you talk about the capital."
"Really?" Avril's eyes were filled with longing, as if she saw her junior smiling and listening to her talk.
After a long while, she turned her head and looked at Biyao: "What about you? Why did you give up escaping and give the chance to a city lord you only met a few times?"
After a pause, he smiled and said, “Lord Aggie has talent, even if I cannot become king, I hope he can serve Lake.
That way...in the future turmoil, our people will at least suffer less.
It can be considered as… it can be considered as my last contribution to the people as a descendant of the royal family."
"He might..."
There was a sound of hurried horse hooves in the distance, and the two looked over together.
"That's... Andre's carriage. Where is he going in such a hurry?" Piaou stood on tiptoe and looked at the flag flying on the roof of the carriage.
Last day off
I was on my way home from a business trip and had planned to type today’s words on the high-speed train, but the cell phone signal was always lost, and the network on my laptop connected to the cell phone’s hotspot was also intermittent, which was really frustrating.
Therefore, I take another day off with a guilty conscience.
I will be home tonight and will resume normal updates tomorrow. I will make up for the missing chapters as soon as possible.
Chapter 273 He is slandering you, Your Highness Andre!
hotel.
Zhang Mu's figure slowly emerged in the center of the living room, and Sauron and the other two immediately surrounded him.
"Marshal, is Andre here?"
"His patience is worse than I thought." Zhang Mu waved his hand and asked them to disperse. "Get ready to welcome our Prince Andre.
in addition……"
As he spoke, he took out his phone and opened the video he had just recorded in Andre's study: "I made an unexpected discovery."
Upon hearing this, the three of them quickly gathered around again, putting their heads together to look at the phone screen.
The video finished playing soon.
Soran was a little surprised: "The eldest prince knows about the blood sacrifice?"
"It's obvious." Zhang Mu put his phone back into his pocket and said, "This group of people all have their own plans.
The king and the two grand dukes wanted to ascend to divine protection through blood sacrifice, and Andrei was trying to take advantage of the situation. As for the second prince and the third prince...
They seem to know nothing about this and are still thinking about how to defeat Andre in the battle for the throne."
"Lord City Lord, if we support the Second Prince, we must inform him of the news."
“We don’t support any of them.”
Zhang Mu sat down at the wooden table and picked up the tea he had made before leaving: "We can have fun on our own."
The three of them looked at each other, and Mih asked, "How should we do it?"
"Use the Second Prince's name to win over all the city lords to our side. Once the ban is lifted, we will focus our efforts on destroying the blood sacrifice formation and put the Second Prince on the throne."
"To win over all the city lords...is there any hope?" Domit said hesitantly.
"If you reveal Andre's plan to all the city lords, I don't believe they will still follow him wholeheartedly."
"In that case, most city lords would choose to flee back to their own cities."
"Don't worry." Zhang Mu put the empty teacup back on the table, "They are not stupid.
If they don’t fight now, once the ban is lifted, they will be captured like mice by the two Grand Dukes and the awakened king, taken back to the capital one by one, and then sent to the blood sacrifice array as sacrifices.”
If there was only the blood sacrifice formation, Zhang Mu would not be very sure, but there was a video shot accidentally, which proved that Andre also wanted to use them as sacrifices, so it was basically certain.
"Uh..." Domit scratched his head. "Even if the plan goes smoothly, there will be three Saints on the other side when the king wakes up. Andre has Jarvis' support, which is equivalent to four. We... don't have any."
Mihe shook his head: "They both want to use the blood sacrifice array, so it's impossible for them to cooperate."
"Mr. Mihe is saying, let them fight first?" Soran put his hands in his pockets, pondered for a while and said, "The statue in the church has the power of truth, which can kill a blessed one instantly.
Moreover, Jarvis was blessed with status magic when fighting near the church. He was alone against the remaining two. I can't say he would win for sure, but he could definitely achieve a stalemate.
Hmm... the difference in strength between the two parties is slight, so it works."
Zhang Mu clapped his hands and waited for everyone's attention to come over. He said, "Don't worry about this for now. I have plans.
Domit."
"Your Excellency the Marshal." He stood up straight.
"Joffrey's new weapon has made some progress. Tomorrow you go to the World and select a group of elite soldiers from the First Army to intensify training and study adaptive tactics.
By the way, the general direction is to behead top professionals in the field of dandan."
"As ordered!"
"Soran, you will be in charge of contacting the city lords and keeping the communication smooth. Mihe will help in the back."
"As ordered!"
"As for me..." Zhang Mu stood up, "I will first find out the location of the magic nodes of the blood sacrifice array, and then..."
"Bang bang—"
The door was slammed hard, and he walked towards the entrance happily: "You came pretty fast."
He opened the door and saw a guard standing outside: "Lord Aigi, His Highness Andre has summoned you. Please go to the lobby on the first floor immediately."
"Sauron, follow."
"Yes."
Glancing at Soran who was approaching, the guard did not stop him and led the two to the first floor lobby.
The hall will be quite empty.
The furniture and even the reception counter were pushed to the corner and piled together. Only a leather sofa was left in the middle, where Andre sat lazily.
The five city lords who reported the news stood in a row at the back.
Zhang Mu stood leisurely opposite him with his hands behind his back.
"What is it that your Highness summoned me for?"
He glanced around and heard the noises coming from other city lords to investigate the situation. He smiled and said, "No hurry, wait a little longer."
