Prince Arnold invited him to dinner.After Jiang Chu confirmed that he would not act rashly now, he reluctantly agreed.

It is true that the prince and the royal family are at odds, but he wants to get the king as well as the imperial power.

Jiang Chu believed that the young king himself had been very upset with him for a long time, and would definitely want to kill him if he had the chance.

But it is a pity that his current rights as a king are still too small, basically relying on the loyalty of the duke himself to him.

The steak cooked by the prince's chef is delicious.Jiang Chu was a little worried about eating black pepper sauce, but when the steak was served, it was actually tomato sauce.

Anyway, he has accepted the messy setting here, and he doesn't want to think about why fine-tuned ketchup appeared in the Middle Ages.Moreover, the food actually suits his appetite, as if it was tailor-made for him.

"You really like to eat." The prince had an enthusiastic smile on his face, full of hints: "I specially poached the cook from the palace."

"That's what I think." The aggressiveness in his eyes was undisguised, and he licked the corners of his mouth, "Sooner or later, you will live here forever, why not..."

Jiang Chu sneered and stood up suddenly.

Arnold looked at him suspiciously.

He was holding a crystal goblet in his hand, and the red wine was almost transparent under the light, but he stepped forward and poured the wine on the prince's head.

The red liquid fell from the ends of her hair and wet the elegant skirt.Arnold hadn't reacted yet, and looked at him in surprise.

"Dream." He sneered, "Dreams have everything."

The prince smiled softly, wiped his hair with a napkin, and apologized, "Sorry, Your Majesty."

"I overstepped the line."

He apologized quickly, but it was obvious in his eyes: I dare to do it next time.

Jiang Chu began to think about whether to throw the wine glass on his head as well.

But obviously, if this NPC is annoyed, he will get no benefit.

"Your Majesty." He chuckled softly, "I love you, no one loves you more than me."

Jiang Chu is in a bad mood, and he doesn't want others to be in a good mood.As soon as his bad taste came up, he thought of the Duke, and said, "The Duke can give his soul to the devil for me, what can you do?"

Sure enough, the prince's face was instantly chilled, and his eyes were cold, like an unpopular sculpture.

A candle on the wall was suddenly extinguished, and the room was eerily quiet.

"What you just said is true?" His voice was low and strange, "You don't believe me, choose to believe the Duke?"

Jiang Chu didn't know where this subtle malice came from, and it penetrated into his skin all-pervasively, making his body tremble for a while.

At this time, a system option appeared in front of him:

[Who do you choose to believe? 】

[a. Duke of Verlaine b. Prince Arnold c. No one believes]

[Note: Your options will prompt different clues, please choose carefully]

Jiang Chuxuan c's hand was put down.

While he was looking at the options, the prince was also looking at him, as if waiting for his answer.

To be honest, his sense of the duke is a little better. No matter how you look at it, the duke is very loyal to the king, but Arnold is not necessarily so. Why should he trust someone who is likely to rebel?

However, if the corresponding option can unlock specific clues, he wants the prince's clues more, and he really knows too little about this NPC.

After hesitating for a moment, he still chose b.

Arnold's face suddenly melted like ice and snow, and put on a smile like a spring breeze: "Of course you should trust me. After all, I never hide it in front of you. You can completely trust me."

Jiang Chu thought to himself, then you really didn't hide it at all.

"It seems that you have also discovered the abnormality of the Duke..." He didn't finish his sentence, and he left a suspense in such a frenzied manner.

"What happened to Verlaine?" Jiang Chu couldn't help asking.

Arnold smiled without saying a word, dried his hair under the servant's service, changed a coat by the way, and sat back at the table again.

He waved away the nearly 30 servants who remained to serve the king, and his face suddenly became very serious.

Jiang Chu thought in his heart that he was finally going to start talking about the key points.

"Your Majesty." With a serious face, he lowered his voice: "A while ago you asked me to investigate heretics... I have already caught a few people, but the situation is no longer optimistic."

Jiang Chu did not expect that the prince was actually helping the king in private.

Seeing that he was silent, Arnold continued: "I actually found a gathering place for them in my territory. I destroyed it last week, but I also discovered their evil deeds."

He took out a folded paper from his clothes and handed it to him: "They are planning a sacrifice ceremony with a pure virgin, as if they want to summon demons."

Hearing the word "devil", Jiang Chu immediately thought of the main task.

It seems that this is the clue. The devil has a deep relationship with the heretics who suddenly appeared. Maybe we can find more clues along this road.

The king looked at the content on the paper, and his face became more and more sullen.

After a while, he threw the paper on the table: "Although I don't believe in gods."

He showed his snow-white canine teeth, as if seeking the blood of his prey: "But who will allow them to trample on the royal faith?"

Prince Arnoldon immediately said, "What do you want me to do?"

"Find the mastermind behind the scenes and arrest all the remaining heretics." The king ordered coldly, "Since they want to serve the devil, sacrifice themselves to the devil."

Arnoldon looked at him with fiery eyes, and the flames in his eyes became more and more frenzied. He lowered his head: "Follow your order."

"Also, send more people to protect the girls who haven't left the cabinet."

Well?The prince raised his head in surprise, and looked at the calm Jiang Chu.

However, the king didn't seem to intend to answer his question, wiped his mouth with a silk embroidered napkin, and left the table straight away.

He seemed to hear the person behind him laughing, before saying: "Of order."

"Your Majesty, please don't forget your promise." Arnold reminded.

Jiang Chu nodded casually, in fact, he had no intention of fulfilling any promise at all.

It's not what he promised, so what does it have to do with me, Jiang Shuren? ?

The night became so dark that even in the grounds outside the castle there was hardly any light to be seen.Only then did Jiang Chu feel how inconvenient it was to not have electric lights.

After wandering around the castle with his servants for a while, he found it boring.

"Your Majesty?" Verlaine watched Jiang Chu approach slowly, "Why are you here?"

"Walk around," he replied.

So Verlaine stopped asking and walked slowly with him.

"Can you tell me what the Prince said to you at dinner today?" Verlaine asked suddenly.

[Facing the Duke's request, you choose: a. Conceal b. Tell the truth]

[Note: Your choice will provide different clues, please choose carefully]

This time he chose a without hesitation.Now who is the devil can not be sure, how could he completely believe in him?

The Duke's smile became very ugly: "Ah... I see, it turns out that I am still not worthy of His Majesty's trust."

"But Your Majesty, you must be careful." He lowered his voice, "I heard that the castle is haunted because...the prince sold his soul to the devil."

Jiang Chu:?

what's the situation? ?The clue given by the prince said that the Duke was suspicious, and the clue given by the Duke said that the prince had something to do with the devil, so who is real?

Grinding teeth could be heard when Verlaine spoke: "The prince has plotted against you a long time ago."

Jiang Chu: I know.

I am not blind.

It was rare for a master and a servant to get along peacefully and calmly. Soon the bell of the bell tower rang, and the long and hollow sound came to Jiang Chu's ears. He frowned and covered his heart, and suddenly felt a palpitation.

"Are you going to rest?" Verlaine asked him, "I'll take you back to your room."

【...I#¥T&...found you...】

"Did you hear who was talking?" Jiang Chu asked.

Verlaine looked at him tenderly, thinking that he was overworked: "No one speaks, Your Majesty, I will send you back to your room to rest."

"No need." He rubbed between his brows, "Just let the servant take me there."

He can only leave disappointed.

Jiang Chu walked to the room, he knew that he was about to suffer from narcolepsy, if he didn't want to sleep on the cold floor all night, he had better go back to the room quickly.

On the way, his eyes became more and more blurred, as if covered with a veil of mist, the glass chandeliers and oil paintings in the corridor became even more unrecognizable, and the servant's voice was also blurred into a ball.

Then he fell into a deep sleep.

When he woke up again, he found himself lying in the room, even changed into pajamas.

Did the servant change it for him?He rubbed his head and sat up, looking at the still dark night outside.

One problem with narcolepsy is that he may fall asleep at any time, and the sleep time may be long or short, it may be an hour, it may be a day, and it may not exceed a week.When the time is up, he will wake up automatically, without any drowsiness left, as if he has never slept.

It's like a ticking time bomb.

He didn't want to faint suddenly at a critical moment, such as when being chased by a ghost.

There was a chill all around, which didn't seem like the temperature a room should have.Jiang Chu got out of bed and touched his heart, the feeling of palpitations has not disappeared yet.

He lit a candle, and stepped on the white cashmere carpet with bare feet. With the help of the light, he could clearly see something beside the bed.

is a mirror.

The mirror was big enough to accommodate his entire body, with a simple and simple shape, and the frame was also engraved with gorgeous patterns, just like the door of the church.

Although it looks ordinary, once he looks at himself in the mirror, he will feel very strange and tremble more and more.

This is definitely not a good thing.Jiang Chu pressed his hand on the mirror, and his intuition told him to smash the mirror.

His appearance was reflected in the mirror. His long pale golden hair was scattered on his shoulders, his eyes were deep and beautiful, his exposed neck was white and slender, and even his fingers were slender, more noble than the sapphire ring he was wearing.

But "it" really feels foreign.

The system that has been silent for a long time gives a rather weird multiple-choice question:

[Your appearance is reflected in the simple mirror]

【You choose: a kiss the person in the mirror b bite his throat】

Jiang Chu:? ? ?Is the system crazy? !

Before he could react, he saw the "self" in the mirror curled his mouth and slowly squeezed his hands into his fingers.

Interlocking fingers with him vigorously.
