Chapter 400: The Mist King
The next morning, Bai Ye told Zero to take care of Ora, so he took Lilian and Medice to travel from the Dimension Gate to the royal capital. Lilian looked lonely, obviously thinking of the uncomfortable days in the palace, and he was reluctant to leave the tavern.
"It's only more than three months. Then we will find a way to plan a grand wedding escape for you." Reit could only comfort Lilian like this. Everyone was very disappointed when they parted, but Lilian took the lead in breaking the heavy atmosphere.
She secretly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and showed a sweet smile: "Well, then you will accompany me to Xuemanjing after the severe winter."
"A word is certain." Reit smiled.
After saying goodbye, Bai Ye took Lilian and Medise, who had been disguised, and walked towards the Dimension Gate. At this moment, Zero suddenly called Bai Ye.
"Hmm?" He turned around.
"It's nothing, I'll wait for you to come back." Ling smiled. It was rare to be so warm, but Bai Yezhong felt familiar with her appearance and his head began to ache.
"Okay." He didn't think much about it, and after a simple response, he walked through the Dimension Gate with them.
The three of them walked through the periphery of the royal capital. Even the most prosperous king capital in the kingdom was indispensable for slums and affiliated villages. However, they were all concentrated in the outermost circle, which was somewhat different from the affiliated villages in ordinary territories.
"The King Capital gathered the most powerful group of nobles in the entire kingdom. After getting tired of entertainment venues near the King Capital, they heard that they would occasionally go to the affiliated villages below for fun." Lilian spontaneously served as a guide for Bai Ye. She was known as the "merciful princess" in the King Capital and had a good reputation among the civilian group.
"Because of this abnormal entertainment, the affiliated villages and slums below have completely become paradises, taverns, gambling houses, etc., and there are only those highly stimulating and profitable buildings, and they are often in the hands of some middle-class people. In fact, the controllers are several giants in the capital." Lilian sighed, "It seems that there is a lot of gold coins every day, but the actual beneficiaries are still those capital nobles."
"I have heard of this." Medice had lived in the capital before. These things were not as thorough as Lilian knew, but they were not ignorant. "The kings are typical step-like cities."
Bai Ye looked at the tallest and magnificent building community with her fingers, overlooking the entire capital like a lion. The distribution of buildings here is very similar to Wells, with a step-up approaching. The bottom floor is the huge affiliated villages and slums, which are progressing upwards layer by layer.
"The most powerful people in the capital are my mother, Queen Haiji, the Prime Minister of the Cabinet, Duke Cairns, Bishop Orn of the Temple, followed by the Sixth Duke and the Four Generals belong to the power in the capital, and they represent the highest level. After that, there are all kinds of nobles in the capital, most of whom are dependent on one of the top level, and the current capital is as complex as a whirlpool." Lilian is not as simple as the surface. Although she does not have any real power, she can see the situation in the capital clearly and understand the situation of the capital better than anyone else.
"Where is His Majesty King Oakles?" Bai Ye asked curiously, "You seem to have missed the most important thing."
"Sorry, in fact, I think my father is a little powerless and powerless about the loss of control of the royal capital." Lilian lowered his voice and said something completely rebellious. Even Medice on the side couldn't help but hold his breath. "Since the beginning of the year, my father has lived in the temple and rarely went out. Bloodline diseases have caused him a lot of the noble forces in the royal capital are now ready to move."
Unexpectedly, Lilian told him such a secret matter directly. He glanced at Lilian in surprise. He believed in himself too much.
Even the owner of Angle knew about blood diseases, and it must not be a secret. But Lilian's description is already very serious.
"In fact, I have received a lot of letters from your father recently, but the origin was the palace." Bai Ye took out the last undestroyed letter from his arms and handed it to Lilian.
Lilian looked suspicious, took the letter and opened it. She read it carefully several times, and then solemnly said to Bai Ye: "This is definitely not my father's handwriting."
"Oh, that's so interesting. Since I subdued Molias, I have been reporting to the king capital about the situation in the Xueman Realm. At the same time, I was also named the Lord of the Xueman Realm. It's not the handwritten letter of His Majesty. So who else has the right to do such a thing now?" Bai Ye was more curious than surprised. Now, not only is the father of the Duke's Mansion a Xibei product, but even the dignified King of Oakles dares to impersonate him?
"The appointment of important positions is now decided by my mother and the Prime Minister. There is no problem, but why does this person forged his father's letter and ask you to find me in his name?" Lilian was almost certain that the only person who forged the letter might be one of the Queen or the Duke of Keynes, but the problem is, once Bai Ye finds herself, will the forgery be exposed?
"My understanding is that this is a hidden reminder." Bai Ye said after pondering for a moment, "According to your words, only one or two of the Queen or Duke of Keynes may join forces? But as long as I find you, the forged letter will be exposed, and the other party will not be unaware of this."
"But he wrote the letter obviously in hope that the adults could find Miss Lilian, which means that this person's purpose was to expose the forged letter?" Following Bai Ye's thinking, Medice immediately came up with the subsequent inference, "The letter is fake, not written by His Majesty himself, and so on, the previous letter was not written by His Majesty himself. This tip, even if you don't need to forge the letter, as long as you find Miss Lilian, you will be defeated."
"Then what exactly does he want to remind us? His Highness Lilian, what is the relationship between the Queen and Duke Cairns?" Bai Ye was puzzled and asked quickly.
"No, they have a lot of differences in government affairs. Ah, you, what do you mean?" Lilian seemed to understand a little.
"If the letter was written by both parties, then the forgery was also done by them, and they always felt that it was unnecessary. But if the letter was the meaning of one party, of course they could not send me a letter privately without hiding it. After all, once things like appointing the Lord of the Realm will be spread in the capital in an instant, but they cannot hide it. In other words, the letter was signed by the two people to me together, but this only represents the meaning of one party. The other party obviously does not want to do this, and the other party will inform us of this matter in the form of a forged handwritten letter."
Bai Ye can only infer this step.
The specific meaning to be expressed can only be understood when he has been exposed to both.
"Mr. Bai Ye, I actually have another idea." Medice suddenly said, "Will this be the case? In the letter, I hope we find His Highness Lilian, and naturally I hope we know from her that there are many things about the capital and His Majesty. But there is something strange that you also said, and the letter only mentioned the missing of Your Highness, which is to suggest you to find her, but hasn't it said in the letter that you asked you to send Your Highness back to the capital?!"
"If he said from the beginning, he was to let you find His Highness and not bring it back!"
"That's all going to make sense."
Bai Ye frowned. This idea was so bold that he didn't dare to think like this. Only Medice dared to infer this way, but it was very reasonable. He suddenly felt that bringing Medice together was the most correct decision he had made.
"It's worthy of being Medice, I feel the same way." Bai Ye shamelessly plagiarized her thoughts. He hugged Medice excitedly, and immediately let go before she could react.
Medice's face turned red and said nothing.
