Working Prophet.

Chapter 555 You're Crazy

A look of astonishment appeared on Du Lun's face when he heard this.

And what shocked the chief guard of the royal forest was still behind, because the retinue knight who left didn't take long to come back, and beside him were the priestess and her two followers.

One of them was Selena who was put back by Miss Rabbit not long ago.

The latter also saw the female lord, and then seemed to think of something, and his expression couldn't help but darken.

But the female lord's attention was not on her right now, because Ilea heard Li Yu say, "Durun is in trouble now."

"Ok?"

"It looks like he should have reached some kind of alliance with Cornelia before, but unfortunately now Cornelia has changed her mind, or she just wanted to use Du Lun from the beginning, and she didn't intend to really use it at all. working with Durham.”

"This is too despicable." Miss Rabbit said angrily.

She had nothing to do with Garth or Durham, but she had a good impression of the Lord Guard, because most people didn't have his courage.

It is not very wise to confront a new emperor who is about to be crowned for the sake of a dead monarch.

And Du Lun's current situation doesn't seem to be very good.

The appearance of Cornelia was obviously beyond the expectations of the head of the royal guard, especially after careful inspection, Du Lun did not see any traces of torture on the priestess.

Cornelia's expression was the same as usual. After entering the palace, she first saluted Gals, and then said, "Your Majesty, are you looking for me?"

Gals was very satisfied with this title, and he also saluted the priestess, "High Priest Cornelia, the person next to you told me that you performed a magic spell four days ago and penetrated into Sir Clyde's heart. Is this thing true?"

The priestess glanced at Clyde who looked nervous, nodded and said simply, "It's true."

Hearing these words, hope was rekindled in Du Lun's eyes.

Gals continued to ask, "Did Clyde send someone to Lard Street to buy a poison called Blood Feast?"

"Sorry, I haven't seen this kind of thing in his heart." Cornelia shook his head.

"Then, have you ever reminded my father that someone wants to poison him?"

"I did receive an oracle from the goddess, but the oracle is usually not so straightforward and easy to understand. I told the first emperor that something very bad might happen next, but unfortunately he didn't tell me Take your warning to heart.”

"Priest Cornelia, this is different from what you told me at the beginning." The head of the royal guard said in shock.

Upon hearing this, the priestess turned her head to look at Du Lun. This was the first time she had seriously looked at the Chief of the Imperial Guard after entering the hall.

After a while, Cornelia's eyes showed concern, "Sir Durran, you did come to ask me some questions after the late Emperor's death, but I told you at that time that Your Majesty has nothing to do with this matter. any relationship.

"If there is something wrong with your spirit, you can tell me, as long as you pray to the goddess devoutly, the goddess will heal you."

The head of the Royal Guard's heart sank, "But you sent someone to find me three days ago and asked me to see you, and you warned me not to investigate further, otherwise..."

"There is no such thing." Cornelia said with certainty. Seeing that Du Lun was still arguing, the priestess took the initiative to say, "Then do you remember where you met me? Has anyone seen us around?" Meet?"

Du Lun was dumbfounded.

Even if he is not very keen on political sense, he can smell a conspiracy in it.

Cornelia saw him that time and led him to a remote alley, and the walkers he followed were all wearing cloaks. Even if someone saw them, they would never recognize them as priestesses of the Church of Life.

But the head of the imperial guard didn't want to just give up, he took a deep breath, calmed down and continued.

"I have another witness, the black market dealer who sells poison. He can also prove that the Wendell family bought the blood feast.

"His nickname is Fat Cat, and he is well-known around Lard Street.

"Not only that, but there was also a guard from the defense team, nicknamed Little Thumb, who could also prove what I said..."

Du Lun was interrupted by the Duke of Tinton before he finished speaking, "Your Majesty, we have already delayed a lot of time, and if we continue to delay, we will miss the best time for the coronation ceremony.

"Don't listen to this lunatic anymore, just ask someone to take him to the defense team first."

However, Gals was not in a hurry at this time. He waved his hands and said, "Finding the murderer of my father is the most important thing. It doesn't matter if you delay a little time. The big deal is that you can have lunch late later." .”

"The first emperor will definitely be happy to have a son like you." Duke Tinton praised, and stepped aside again.

Gals said to Duran, "Don't say I didn't give you a chance, as long as you can find something of value and prove that you haven't neglected your duties in the past three days, I can consider exempting you from the caning."

"Your Majesty is merciful!" Minister of Finance Schiller praised loudly.

And other people heard the words and gave out a voice of praise.

Gals looked at the commander of the garrison and said softly, "Sir Essos, can you get him here?"

Essos nodded, "Leave it to me."

But this time it took him a little longer, because he heard from other merchants on Lard Street that since Du Lun brought people to look for Fat Cat last time, Fat Cat packed up his things and left Lionheart Castle overnight.

Fortunately, the little finger is still there, but unfortunately his testimony is still very unfavorable to the chief guard of the imperial forest. According to the little finger, the two people's trip to Lard Street did not yield much.

Durham seemed anxious at the time because the investigation had been slow to make progress.

Little Thumb said, "Master Du Lun was worried that he wouldn't be able to do business, so I comforted him, but then he hinted that I asked me to help him find a way to forge evidence.

"He told me that we can blame the Wendell family on the matter of buying poison, because a man named Little Ear said in the tournament field that he was ordered by Earl Clyde to frame Sir Ilea .

"You may not believe that we framed others, but if it is the Wendell family who believe it, there must be many people..."

"You liar full of lies!"

The chief guard of the imperial forest couldn't listen anymore when he heard this, he pulled out the sword from his waist and said sharply.

Essos snorted coldly when he saw this, took two steps, and stopped between Du Lun and Gals.

Only then did the others wake up like they had just woken up from a dream, and began to curse Du Lun for treason.

The imperial guards actually didn't really believe that Du Lun was capable of doing such a thing, but at this time they couldn't care less about their past friendship. Protecting the emperor was their most important duty, so they all drew their swords and pointed at Du Lun. .
