Kingdom’s Bloodline Chapter 80: Black Hand


This is the first time Thales has seen the dark golden crown on King Nunn’s head, dressed in gold and red clothes that are both solemn and majestic. With the help of a powerful king, he walked down surrounded by his ministers. On the steps, to the central long table in the chamber, sit on the main seat of the king.

In his eyes, the nearly seventy-year-old man no longer had the gloom and obscurity when he first met, and replaced it with an unprecedented majesty, like the silent and terrifying head of a lion.

I saw King Nunn Walton VII with a straight torso and an upright waist, leaning on his seat arm and shooting into the hall with piercing eyes. The four great princes turned their heads or looked away unnaturally in the undisguised scrutiny and gaze of the king.

Professional officer Melk stood behind the king with a serious expression; dozens of savvy blade guard soldiers guarded every corner of the chamber, pressing the white hilt vigilantly; more Thales had never The faces of the unseen, dressed in clothing that should belong to the nobles, stood on both sides of the king with different expressions, and exchanged their eyes without concealment.

This is also the first time Thales has seen the close minister next to King Nunn completely, belonging to the court of Longxiao City.

Compared with the orderly and ruled court of stars, Exeter’s monarchs are full of fierceness and ruggedness from their bones in their positions, postures, movements, and expressions. The thick and wild, seemingly casual and rude, made the people who saw this scene for the first time uneasy-it felt like standing in a group of dangerous carnivores ready to speak and eat people.

Thyls couldn't help but glance at Putile next to him, who nodded slightly at him.

"Wait?"

In the chamber, the long-haired Ronnie asked his doubts in his muffled voice: "What do you mean, Your Majesty?"

No one answered him.

"Hey! Your Majesty," Grand Duke Trudida glanced at the neighbors standing next to King Nunn, either with gray hair or bright eyes, and his face was pale and said: "I don't know what you want to do. However, from His Excellency Sorb, the Chief Political Officer, to the Earl of Siler, who deals with foreign affairs, to...You have moved half of the Royal Council before us?"

"Do you want to discuss it with us," he asked, half satirically and half accusingly, "Why was the wine at the banquet so sour?"

Grand Duke Olesiu beside him looked at the king politely.

Thyls looked at this scene with concern: How will things end?

"It seems that your majesty's long-term tolerance has ruined you all."

"Listen well, the princes who belong to Exeter," a minister who was over half a hundred years old next to King Nunn replied unceremoniously to Duke Reconstructed Tower: "The king you pledged allegiance to, Northlander The co-owner who follows to the death is ordering you..."

"Wait!"

The half-hundred veteran's face was cold, and he reprimanded in no face:

Grand Duke Trudida and Grand Duke Olesiu's expressions were cold, but Grand Duke Lecco was thoughtful.

Only Duke Ronnie sat on the left side of the long table with his face unchanged-as if he had seen Thales for the first time.

"At least tell us what this crappy trap is for, Your Majesty?" A few seconds later, Grand Duke Lecco who was guarding the city sighed and sat down slowly.

"Collaborate with the little ghosts of the stars to play with the princes," Grand Duke Olesiu also sat down in his seat, and then said coldly: "I feel that my dignity has been greatly insulted. ."

At this moment, there were waves of knocks in the hall.

"Boom...boom...boom..."

The four princes turned their heads together and looked at the main seat at the end of the long table.

There, Nunn VII, with a serious face, looked right and tapped the tabletop with his right hand slowly.

"Boom...boom...boom..."

Tyles squinted, and he noticed that King Nunn was wearing a special-shaped ring on the little finger of his right hand, with a black gem in the center of the silver-white metal ring.

The king was using that gem, knocking on the tabletop seemingly casually.

"The dignity does not give you the right to question the king, Rebion," King Nunn spoke slowly, his eyes nailed to the table, seeming to be particularly interested in the part he knocked on: "You There is only one thing to do, boys, just like it was ten years ago,"

"Obey me."

King Nunn slowly raised his head, his eyes shot a stern beakless light, and looked at the princes:

"Like a long time ago, your father obeyed my father, and later obeyed me..."

"At least then, we were all in peace."

"Understand?"

The princes all breathed.

"According to the child," A few seconds later, Grand Duke Lecco sighed and said first: "You use lies to test our loyalty? And we are far away from our guards and entourage, this is true It makes me worry about my safety..."

"If I really want your life recklessly, old bald," King Nunn raised his voice suddenly, making Lecco's words stagnant: "You think it depends on the stray soldiers around you. The extreme axe behind him will be able to walk out of the Heroic Palace or even Longxiao City alive?"

"This is not your guard city."

Several princes frowned at the same time.

"At least tell us, what are you waiting for?" Ronnie pulled away his long hair and snorted.

"Your Excellencies, Your Majesty the King has shown great kindness, please stay calm, but if you know each other's identities and duties..." On the left of King Nunn, another The subject with a playful expression replied with a smile and deep meaning: "Find your place and sit firmly."

The hall fell silent for a while.

And waiting for unknown purpose.

"After this, boy," Olesiu cast his gaze on Thales with a fierce expression, which attracted the attention of others for a while: "I will dig out your heart--as a challenge The price of our dignity."

Ronnie, Lecco, and Trudida all cast different glances at him, vigilant, thoughtful, and suspicious.

Tyles closed his eyes and sighed long.

Damn it.

I thought it would be very simple...find out the man behind the scenes, King Nunn waved his hand, and shot out all the arrows, revenge, revenge, pat butt, and leave.

But for now, at least from the performance of Olesiu—the side effects and sequelae are huge.

"Save some effort, Lord Lord," Thales heard himself listlessly: "Don't always talk about things you can't do..."

He doesn't want to argue anymore.

Olesiu gritted his teeth, but just when he was about to speak, a newcomer was added to the chamber.

With the sound of messy footsteps, a brown-haired young man, wearing a heavy robe embroidered with blood-colored horseshoes, walked into the chamber full of people.

The Grand Duke of Fengzhao City, the young Conkley Peffert, accompanied by his entourage, stood in front of the crowd.

Tyles took a deep breath, then sighed heavily.

Finally...

"Very good!"

Seeing the coming of Puffett, Grand Duke Trudida's eyes lit up. He looked around the people in the hall with a smile.

Only Duke Ronnie frowned, and Duke Lecco showed a surprised expression.

"Now we are all here, and the five princes who were invited by your majesty, gathered together under the watch of the Blade Guard," the prince who rebuilt the tower raised his eyebrows: "Then the question is, what are you going to do? Is it to use the ridiculous accusation of gathering crowds to conspiracy to kill us or..."

The voice of Trudida stopped abruptly.

The rest of the words were chopped off in his throat by himself.

It looks like a crossbow arrow that breaks instantly when the motif is pulled.

The Grand Duke of the Reconstruction Tower stared blankly at the coming Puffett group.

They have poor complexions, awkward figures, and empty hands. A soldier next to Grand Duke Peffert himself, even with his support, covered his shoulders with pale faces and bleeding between his fingers.

Around them, there is a whole circle of blade guards with swords out of the sheath, the blades are flashing cold, and they are coldly watching them.

Nicolai the "Meteor", with a chill, the last one walked in and saluted the king.

Trudida reacted.

Paffert and his people, they were escorted in by the Blade Guard after they were disarmed.

Grand Duke Peffert himself stood blankly, his body still cold, and snow dripped from his brown hair.

"Is it enough?" The young grand prince looked up with sullen eyes and looked at the people in the hall: "A noble grand prince should not be treated like criminals in the king's palace and castle!"

"Use force to coerce me to come to the conference hall, what on earth do you want to do?"

"This is challenging our ancient tradition in the North, disregarding Nikaru's co-governance vow!"

King Nunn narrowed his eyes.

The four great princes have different expressions.

Thyls raised his eyebrows from an unseen angle:

Tonight, it's finally over.

"This is what you want us to wait for, Your Majesty? Gather all five of us here," Grand Duke Lecco looked at the embarrassed Grand Duke Peffert and said in a helpless tone: "Now you can tell us, Is the ins and outs of all this?"

"Could it be that it's like the kid said," Olesiu said angrily: "We have to wait for Rumba to come together?"

Trudida laughed lowly.

Under everyone's eyes, the old king of Exter paused for three seconds before speaking slowly.

"Very well," King Nunn folded his hands, his expression serious, his eyes sharp.

But his next sentence made almost everyone look surprised.

"Little Thales, my smart guest."

King Nunn slowly turned to the side, looking at the star prince standing on the side.

Thyls, who was about to watch a good show, was taken aback.

What?

Little Thales?

Am I familiar with you?

"Come, tell me loyal princes why they are here."

King Nunn's words fell, his eyes flashed.

"Tell them...the so-called truth."

Everyone's eyes, with different emotions such as hesitation, surprise, gloom, etc., all turned to the second prince of the stars at that moment

Thyls froze for a moment.

Damn it.

He reacted very quickly and pulled out an ugly smile, raised his hands and spread them out to the sides.

"I don't want to get involved in Exeter's internal fighting, my honorable majesty," Thales smiled and said, "You will take care of your internal affairs. This is..."

But he couldn't finish.

"You are already involved, Thales." Nunn's low and old voice, accompanied by the king's profound gaze, interrupted him: "You are already in it, unable to extricate yourself, the future king of stars ."

"And you promised to accomplish this for me--your promise, isn't it."

Thyls gritted his teeth.

Several princes looked at him, their doubts slowly turning into solemnity.

Tyles swallowed and frowned.

Nun, this **** old man.

Is it to show the princes that the heir of the stars is standing with him?

Thyls' brow furrowed and tightened.

King Nunn's eyes became sharper.

"Go on, what are you waiting for, little prince," Olesiu continued to look at him ferociously, "after you tricked us all over with ridiculous words--to be honest, I just thought Rumba Will come together too."

Thyls ignored him.

Finally, after Putila's whispered reminder, he breathed out helplessly.

Okay.

In response to the gazes of almost everyone in the hall, Thales took a step forward.

"Sorry, princes," Thales said with the almost unkind gaze of the five princes, "Tonight, most of the words I said to you are Fake, only one thing is true."

"Prince Moral was assassinated in the stars." Thales sighed: "One of the black hands behind the scenes is among you."

As soon as the voice fell, the five princes frowned.

The courtiers around the king began to whisper.

The second prince ignored the noise that began to increase in the hall.

"His Majesty Nunn asked me to find the black hand who conspired with Rumba to kill Prince Morar." Thales said blankly.

"Oh, I knew..." The bald Grand Duke Lecco sighed: "Invite us to come, not just to deal with the star prince."

Grand Duke Trudida turned his head and shook his head disapprovingly: "The black hand who conspired with Rumba? Ha, I understand."

"But it's not a good job..." Thales turned to the five princes and nodded: "You, almost all of the five princes are suspect."

The five princes turned their heads unnaturally, avoiding the double line of attention between Thales and King Nunn.

"The facts have also proved that you are indeed restless," Thales chuckled and continued: "To be honest, I really didn't expect that those words would draw all four of you... I thought One or two at most."

"My loyal princes, the co-rulers of Exeter," King Nunn said slowly: "They all seem to be ambitious."

Suddenly there was another whisper in the hall.

Olesiu and Lecco's faces became embarrassing, Ronnie still had a cold expression, Trudida laughed loudly, and the young Peffert still looked gloomy.

King Nunn looked at everything in the field quietly, clasping his hands.

"So that's it," Grand Duke Ronnie of Qiyuan City said sternly: "What you said is false...There is no secret discussion between Longxiao City and Black Sand, and there is no Walton. Cooperation with Rumba, isn’t it?"

Thyls shook his head: "Of course not, it's all my nonsense."

"I see," Grand Duke Lecco said unclearly: "The key is Rumba? Because that black hand is conspiring with Rumba?"

"Humph," Olesiu snorted coldly: "What a lame strategy-to persuade us and also convince the black hand that Rumba and His Majesty are cooperating? So, will Rumba betray that black hand to His Majesty?"

"The cover is so straightforward," Grand Duke Trudida leaned back and laughed: "Are anyone really going to be fooled?"

Thyls stared at both of them for several seconds.

Until the second prince smiled slightly.

"No," Thales shook his head decisively: "It's not that simple."

"Don't forget, what I told you, the words'Rumba is not a murderer, but the secret branch appoints him as a murderer'-maybe innocent princes will believe it," Thales continued:

"But he alone, only the black hand, will definitely not believe this-as an accomplice of Rumba, only he knows that Rumba is one of the real murderers! Rumba can't get rid of the murder of the prince Suspect, so it is impossible for Rumba to cooperate with His Majesty, and it is impossible to betray him."

"Only the black hand knows it." Thales turned around, looked around, inspecting the effect of his speech: "What I call the so-called'Walton and Lombard Covenant' is simply alarmist, Lombard May seek an alliance with your Majesty."

"Then what do you mean by what you said at night?" The bald Grand Duke Lecco's eyes flashed: "You said a lot of things that your majesty will abandon hatred and choose benefits, but if you can't convince the murderer, Rumba Working with your majesty......"

"I am not going to make him believe this, I just want to tell him," Thales said lightly: "Your Majesty suspects that Rumba is not the murderer, and is still trying to contact Rumba."

On the main seat of the long table, King Nunn sneered slightly.

"Also, if Nicolae picks me up, the communication between the two parties has probably started for a long time."

Grand Duke Olesiu said impatiently: "You just said that Rumba is the murderer. He dare not and will not cooperate with your majesty. You can't dig out the name of the black hand from Rumba..."

"I haven't finished yet!"

Tyles interrupted him coldly, leaving Olesiu in a daze: "That black hand has done one more thing!"

"He also participated in murdering me, murdering the star prince!"

The whispers in the chamber suddenly stopped.

"In the game between Broken Dragon Fortress and Rumba, he bought a group called'Sword of Disaster' and used Rumba's magic gun force to assassinate me in an attempt to plant and blame Rumba," Thales Shen Take a breath and speak authentically:

"This is what I want him to know!"

"I want the black hand to know: His Majesty Nunn already knows that the black hand who murdered Prince Morar is also the one who planted Rumba!"

Putila sighed behind Thales, while Marquis Schlese beside him smiled.

"So, in the final analysis, I said so much nonsense to you at night, but I just want to tell you two things," Thales shrugged, "One, your majesty is contacting Rumba, two, your majesty knows, murdering Mora The black hand of Prince Er is also calculating Rumba."

In everyone's puzzled eyes, Thales nodded slowly:

"In this case, it doesn’t matter whether your Majesty can cooperate with Rumba. The important thing is-when your Majesty contacts Rumba, in order to confirm the truth of Moral’s murder, will he also inform about this matter? Where is Rumba?"

Several princes were shocked!

They have already figured out the cause and effect of the matter.

"The key is not your Majesty, but Rumba himself," Thales looked at everyone's reactions and sighed deeply: "If the answer is'Yes', then Grand Duke Charman Rumba will know that it is him. The long-time collaborator planted a traitor in the army of the black sand collar and betrayed him under the Broken Dragon Fortress!"

"At that time, if I were Rumba, the first thing to do is to immediately inform your Majesty of the identity of the black hand," Thales' eyes flashed with affirmation, and he said firmly:

"Through the hand of the Dragon Spear Family, let this collaborator who dared to betray, betray, and plant him to pay the heaviest price in Longxiao City!"

Hearing this, King Nunn suddenly looked up and laughed in his own seat.

The laughter is getting louder.

But in the chamber, the others didn't say a word, just watching the king's smile quietly.

Until King Nunn put away his laughter and turned his eyes to the five grand princes-one of them.

"Go on," King Nunn's eyes were extremely sharp at this time. He looked at the silent grand prince, and his old voice was full of murderous intent at this time: "We all look forward to him."

Thyls turned his head and nodded to the old king.

He exhaled from his nose and raised his head:

"Once this happens, the identity of the black hand and the things he has done will be invisible to Rumba and His Majesty!"

"Once you think of his identity and crimes, he will be leaked to His Majesty Nunn in correspondence at any time by the Grand Duke of Lombard..."

"As soon as I think of it, every additional minute he stays in Longxiao City~IndoMTL.com~The possibility of exposure will be bigger..."

"As soon as I think about it, there is nowhere to vent the revenge anger of Majesty Nunn..."

Tyles paced, walked to the center of the field, sighed a long sigh, looked at the distinctive grand prince, slowly said:

"How can you sit still, eat well, and sleep soundly? How can you not rush back to your own territory as soon as possible and stick to the high wall in order to protect yourself?"

The five princes looked different.

But four of them all turned their gazes to that one, who was very different from the beginning.

"Is that so..."

Thyls said slowly, he turned his eyes and looked at the man.

The man who met for the first time in the chamber, was gentle, fair, and enthusiastic, but was silent and silent tonight.

The youngest prince with a bloodshoe embroidered on his clothes.

"Your Majesty, I, and Rumba's common opponent: the black hand who murdered Prince Morar, the assassination of my enemy, Rumba's collaborators and betrayers..." Thales gave a friendly smile.

"Can you tell me why at four o'clock in the morning, the sky was still dark, the banquet was in full swing, and the palace and city gates were both opened for the first time, when I made such a powerful news and proposal, And look forward to when you come to meet..."

"But you can't even say goodbye. You have to leave the Hall of Valor in a hurry, board the carriage, drive to the city gate, and leave Longxiao City regardless?"

Tyles shook his head and pronounced his name in a complicated mood:

"Respected Grand Duke of Fengzhao City——His Excellency Conkley Perfit?"

By this time, the court was silent.

Until the brown-haired young man with a distinguished identity covered in cold and snow, slowly raised his head and looked at the prince of the stars.

There is numbness in his eyes.
