Quadruple split

The warm and bright fire element burned silently in the fireplace. William Bohe put down the thick book in his hand that had not been turned for a long time, and nodded slightly to Li Fu: "Please sit down, Mr. Astor."

"Just call me Li Fu, Your Majesty."

The latter smiled, silently pulled up his chair and sat opposite William, and asked softly: "You seem to have another guest tonight?"

William knew that the other party had noticed another chair that had not been pulled out, so he nodded happily and said: "Yes, I also asked Duke Fossey to come over. After all, if there are only two people discussing, the ideas will be limited, but in Before he comes over, I want to hear how 'that guy' is doing."

"Suijue is just one of the people I suspect. Although he is the most suspect, please don't treat him directly as the instigator of everything." Li Fu smiled first, and then replied slowly: " It’s no different from before. This upstart in the empire is still as low-key as ever. Because he needs to recuperate from his injuries, he is in a semi-comatose state for a long time every day. In most cases, Ms. Silent Prayer is with him. A few days ago A drinking party was held instead, and in his words, his body will recover soon."

William gently stroked his chin and asked with a frown: "So in your opinion, what he said is true or false?"

"The agent of Tianzhu Mountain is not omnipotent, otherwise His Excellency Farah would not have fallen."

Li Fu sighed and said calmly: "But we do have some special methods. In fact, after I was officially promoted to housekeeper, I used these techniques to master the physical condition of Sin Lord almost every day. The conclusion is that it is almost the same as the butler's. What he said is exactly the same, excluding those who are obviously just trying to show off his strength to not worry Ms. Silent Prayer, it is all the truth."

William, who is not up to par in terms of personal strength, was stunned for a moment: "Now that you have seen it all, the reason why you just said that you are not omnipotent is..."

"That's because there is a possibility of me being deceived, although this possibility is slim."

Li Fu spread his hands and frankly admitted the possibility that he might have made a mistake. He said honestly: "If he is indeed the person we want to find out, it would be strange if he does not have the ability to disguise himself under my nose."

William exhaled anxiously and said with a wry smile: "Wouldn't that become an endless cycle..."

"Yes, Your Majesty, this is an endless cycle."

Li Fu shrugged and said directly: "The real perpetrator will definitely disguise himself, and he is also capable of making us unable to see his disguise. Otherwise, nothing will happen to Mr. Farah, who is also the agent. , your Protector of the Country is no weaker than me."

A gleam of sadness flashed in William's eyes, and he whispered: "So as you said before, we must be patient, continue to observe the situation, and must not act rashly...right?"

"Yes, the only advantage now is that we are in the dark, but the enemy is not in the open either."

Li Fu slightly raised his face and said seriously: "Although I won't be tricked by calculations like your Excellency, you can't do anything like this. There were too many people nearby when the Apocalypse Crystal exploded on the battlefield of Hofer City. , even we can't accurately find the other party from inside. He may be Archduke Garros, Marshal Galahad, Lord Sin, or anyone from the Knights of the Tsar's Sword and the Hurricane Mage Group, or even a There are people who are always lurking in the city of Hofer. This range may not be large, but if we have the slightest rash advance, we will all pay a heavy price, so even if it is for your empire, we cannot act rashly."

William laughed dryly, leaned back in his chair and looked at Li Fo tiredly: "My empire? My empire has lost a powerful Dharma god, a loyal prince, and a prince in just over two months. A young lord also destroyed a city. Now I, the emperor, have to send people to Kunda to lead the 'counter-rebellion' and suppress the 'rebels' who want to avenge Kunda and Withem just like me. !Mr. Li Fo, this is the current situation of the empire!"

"Yes, not only that, your most trusted marshal and the most powerful grand duke also have hidden dangers."

Li Fu nodded expressionlessly and said in a deep voice: "But because of this, you can't act rashly. We must be prepared for a protracted war. Even the sin lord who I am watching the most closely now will only appear because of his appearance." The timing was just too coincidental to be carefully guarded against. There is a high possibility that he is innocent. We...still have no clue about the truth..."

Emperor William knocked on the table hard and said in a rare loud voice: "But we must take action now! We must take action!"

This elegant merchant king rarely loses his temper, but even with his palace, he can no longer control his extremely depressed emotions, and the agent Li Fu in front of him is one of the few in the empire who can let him Someone who doesn't have to pretend to be calm when speaking.

"Yes, we must take action, but it is not against the perpetrator, but to deal with the 'rebels' led by Kangda, Your Majesty." Li Fo did not show any displeasure, but still used his body to "This country can't get any more chaotic," said his calm demeanor for 'Dawn.'

William was able to calm himself down and gave a rather forced smile: "So Mr. Liver feels that the deaths of Kunda and Witham..."

"No, on the contrary, I think their deaths are directly related to the perpetrator."

Conversations between smart people are very simple, so Li Fu shook his head in denial before William finished speaking, and followed closely: "And this counterinsurgency can be a good testing opportunity."

William pondered for a long time, and finally sighed: "If possible, I don't want to use the death of my brother and nephew as a temptation."

"But they are dead, Your Majesty."

Li Fu knew that William had already made up his mind, but he still expressed relief: "So what we can do is not to let their death be in vain."

"Sin Lord?"

William nodded, and then said these two words without any end.

And Li Fu understood it, nodded and said: "Exactly, among our suspects, only Sin Lord is the most suitable to start this temptation."

At this moment, the door of the study room opened. William Bohe's confidant, Duke Jude Fossey, who was responsible for the previous negotiations with the Kunda Territory, pushed the door in and bowed to William: "Your Majesty."

"I've been waiting for you for a while."

William nodded slightly, and introduced to the suspicious Grand Duke opposite: "The person sitting in front of me is Mr. Liver Astor, an agent from Tianzhu Mountain, who has a close relationship with His Excellency the God of Dharma. He has been secretly helping us investigate those weird mysteries for a while. You can talk to him about the details of the previous negotiation..."

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Li Fu."

"It is my pleasure, Your Majesty."

After the two briefly greeted each other, Duke Fossey sat in the seat reserved for him by William in advance. Without saying a word of nonsense, he went straight to the topic and talked about the bloody negotiation. Everything from the arrival of the two parties at the designated location, to the sudden ambush, to the enemy's strange retreat was discussed in detail.

During this process, Emperor William, who had already heard it once, did not interrupt, but silently leaned on his chair to collect his thoughts.

After Fossey finished speaking, William explained Li Fu's origin in relatively detail, letting the former roughly understand the settings of Tianzhu Mountain, the agent, the darkness in the prophecy, and Farah's other identity, and then started Get to the point.

"So, what Your Majesty and Mr. Li Fo mean is..."

Archduke Fosset frowned and remained silent for a while before speaking slowly: "Aren't Marshal Galahad and Archduke Garros allowed to participate in this counter-insurgency?"

Li Fu nodded slightly: "Yes, since those two are also on our suspect list, they must not be allowed to participate in this counter-insurgency operation. The reason is very simple, whether it is the Marshal or the Grand Duke of Garros, Their strength and status are too high. If they are incorporated into the counter-insurgency force, we have to give them considerable authority no matter what. In short, they are the commander-in-chief, otherwise they will not be able to convince the public."

"Not only that……"

William nodded in agreement and said smoothly: "If this situation is indeed created by one of them, then if we let them lead the army to counter the rebellion, it will be exactly what we want."

After hearing this, Fossey first sighed in a low voice, and then said rather helplessly: "But if those two are not allowed to dispatch, it means that the Knights of the Tsar's Sword and the Hurricane Mage Group will also be unable to dispatch, and if it is true, As Mr. Li Fo said, if all the perpetrators are also likely to be hidden among ordinary soldiers, we will not be able to use these two large groups. In this case..."

He didn't finish what he said, but the implication was already very clear - 'After excluding these two main battle groups of the empire, how to suppress the rebellion? Who will lead the people to counter the rebellion? ’

The status of Grand Duke Garros and Marshal Galahad is there. If they are allowed to go, no matter who serves as the supreme commander, it will be unjustifiable. It is okay for the emperor to lead the expedition in person, but in such a situation, who can guarantee that William can stand upright? Coming back soon? This risk must not be taken.

But if they are not allowed to go, Fosai really can't think of any trustworthy generals in the Chauvin royal family for a while. You must know that the people in Huangthorn Castle are not soft persimmons. Although Kangda is the 'useless prince' ', but his confidants and territorial troops are not useless at all. After Kunda and Withem died one after another, the other party's anger and time have reached their peak. If the two empires of the Knights and the Mages are not dispatched, Who can be 100% sure of the immovable main force?

With Marshal Galahat's personal strength and commanding ability, he can definitely win even if he leads ordinary soldiers, but he is also one of the suspects.

Duke Fosset had a splitting headache for a while, feeling as if he was trapped in an endless loop.

"So the person we are going to test this time is the Sin Lord."

Li Fu also rubbed his forehead helplessly and said in a deep voice: "He is not qualified enough to be the coach. We don't need to give him much authority. As for who to send to counter the rebellion, who else Coming to be the head coach... I don't know much about your country's internal system, so I really can't make any pertinent suggestions."

This is the disadvantage of outsiders. Although Li Fu can analyze from a relatively detached and objective perspective, his understanding of this country is still limited after all. If Faraosis is responsible for overall planning, this problem will not arise. .

However, from the beginning, William had no intention of letting Li Fu get involved in this aspect. This emperor, who was absolutely wise and mighty, had already made plans before calling the two of them.

so……

"Jude."

William turned his gaze to Duke Fossey, who was still meditating there, and said calmly: "Commander of the counter-rebellion, you are the one to do it."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Duke Fossey immediately responded subconsciously, and then reacted belatedly. His eyes widened, he looked at William blankly, and whispered: "Your Majesty...?"

And the second half of the sentence was hidden in his eyes, which was, 'Are you fucking kidding me? ’

William directly ignored the other party's sore look and continued: "You are my most trusted Grand Duke. Now that it is inconvenient for Garros and the Marshal to go out, only your status can prevent others from saying anything. Gossip, as for the issue of not being able to use the hurricane and the Tsar's Sword, it can be easily solved. I will give you 20,000 elite Tsar's Shields. No matter how strong the rebels in Kunda's territory are, they will never be able to get even the slightest bit on the frontal battlefield. Cheap. In this way, there should be no problem in terms of combat effectiveness. As for the Sin Lord, I will order him to join the counter-rebellion army, just in name... Since Garros is so optimistic about his talents, let him be a staff officer. In the eyes of others, giving him a chance may make the Sin Lord more popular, but if he is really innocent, it can be considered a good thing. There are not many talents in the empire, and etiquette like Mo Young people with excellent social, communication and personal abilities will be at the top sooner or later."

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."

Grand Duke Fosai was sweating now, and said tremblingly: "Do you think I can command those 20,000 elites well, and quell the rebellion as quickly as possible while monitoring every move of the guilty lord?"

"Of course not."

William answered without thinking, and said with a smile: "Don't I know how many pounds you have? If nothing else, at least in terms of fighting, you are not the material at all. If you are really allowed to take command, , it would be good if I can get back two thousand of my twenty thousand Tsar Shields alive."

Fosset choked at that time, and after a while he said with a grimace: "Then you still... let me be responsible for countering the rebellion?"

"I asked you to be the commander of the counter-rebellion army, but I didn't ask you to personally take charge of the command. You have only one task, and that is to cooperate with Mr. Li Fo and keep a good eye on the Sin Lord."

William waved his hand and let out a long breath...

"As for the real commander, let Arthur be the one."

"Wha...what...!?"

"Yes, I plan to let Arthur join the counter-rebellion army to assist you."

"Your Majesty, you can't. His Royal Highness..."

"Needless to say, he is mature enough...and good enough."
