Legend of Eudemons

"According to the pharmacist himself, he learned the method of making poison/medicine from an oriental man a few years ago. After he learned to make poison/medicine, he didn't really do it. One is that the materials are difficult to find, and the other is If that kind of poison/medicine is not placed properly, it will be poisoned itself."

"Is that so?" Kaina asked Shiratori.

The white bird sneered: "Yes. Do you know how to preserve it in Shangyang? Using the bones and feathers of the white bird to make containers or medicine boxes can prevent the poison from volatilizing. The white bird is endangered, and this thing will become more and more popular. It's harder to save."

"Don't be so happy when you say something like this. Your Royal Highness is in a cold war." Amy gave him a blank look, and continued: "At first, no one knew about this, but he was drunk once. He said it himself. He said that His Royal Highness Antonio knew that, and told him that he just wanted to see and see, and asked him to make a little bit, and provided the materials and venue. This medicine takes a month to burn, and the process is complicated , If you burn it casually in the palace or outside, you are afraid of attracting attention, so you arranged a suitable place in His Royal Highness Antonio's fief for him to make medicines. His Majesty sent someone to find that place."

"Didn't King Corban III say he wants us to go?"

Amy shrugged slightly: "I just want to report. Because the investigation of this matter has not been completed. The danger of His Highness Keina has not been relieved, and he asked you to stay with His Highness at every step."

"right."

"You must perform your duties seriously? Don't let His Highness Kaina make any mistakes again." She snorted through her nose: "Then, after the report is over, I will take my leave first. Please rest well, Your Highness."

She saluted and left with the same vigor as when she came.

……

The two were silent for a while.

"What do you think?"

"Huh? Is it the attitude of the chief female officer? She just doesn't like me."

"...You know I'm not talking about that."

Shiratori chuckled: "I'm not joking with you anymore. Don't you believe that Antonio did it?"

Kenner asked, "Do you believe it?"

Shiratori was noncommittal, "I don't know Antonio. His character, his behavior habits, his relationship with his brothers and sisters, and his position, so it's hard to say. Anyway, let's list it as a suspicious object for the time being." He said casually. , "You are his brother, what do you think?"

Kena looked around and exhaled through his nose: "To put it bluntly, if it doesn't sound very nice, it's not surprising that anyone in the royal family wants to kill anyone. Throughout the ages, fathers kill sons, and sons kill fathers. I heard from time to time that killing each other between brothers is not even a big deal. There are so many backstabbing incidents with a smile on the surface, and no one knows what other people really think. I won't hold 'cause I'm a brother, so I definitely won't do that."

"It's surprisingly calm."

For a 15-year-old child, it is too mature and rational. Even though Kaina was born in a royal family and has been influenced by politics since childhood, his speech and behavior are naturally different from ordinary teenagers, but at this age, he can speak out of his flesh and blood. I don't know whether to say it is cold-blooded or smart.Shiratori’s impression of Kena is indeed a little clever, keen, and insightful child. Even if many strange things happen, he will not panic and yell, and he will not make noise when he is angry, but likes to talk to others. Reasonable, straight-forward.At first I thought he was a prince, and it was no surprise that he was more mature than ordinary children, but now I began to think that he might be more terrifying than I remembered.

Keina continued: "But, this matter is too strange. If I am the first prince and Antonio is the third prince, there is still a motive to kill me. If a few people die before, the chance of becoming the crown prince is very high. It will increase. But in fact he is the eldest son. If there is no accident, the crown prince will be chosen between him and Princess Juliet. Delony is also possible, but this probability is too small. Delony's mother is the second princess , the mothers of Antonio and Juliette are both queens. As for me, there are four people in front of me, so it’s not my turn. It’s impossible for me to cause any obstacles to him, so there is no reason to target me. It's a big mess, and if it is accidentally exposed, it will cause trouble to the upper body. Is there anything in me that is worth the risk he pays."

"Well, that's really hard to make sense of."

"Besides, I always feel that there is something wrong with the survey results that Amy said, although I can't tell where it is, and there is no evidence to refute the accuracy of these surveys. Am I thinking too much? I always feel that things are too smooth , as if it was done on purpose." He paused and looked at Shiratori: "Of course I can't prove my idea, and maybe the results of the investigation are correct, I just think so."

"Ha." Shiratori responded with a short sound.After more than ten seconds, he said: "Sometimes you think too much. It's not derogatory."

Shiratori got up from the floor, sat on the bed, crossed his legs, crossed his hands on his chest, and suddenly asked: "Antonio or Juliette, who is more likely to inherit the throne?"

The kingdom of Olga does not have to be inherited by the eldest son.Corban III was not the eldest son either.Therefore, in theory, any of his children may become the crown prince.

"It's hard to say. The father is still in his prime, and it will be at least ten years before he abdicates. Many things will change in more than ten years. At that time, there is no way to change the mood of the father or the situation. expected."

"What you said is completely correct but meaningless. It is a smooth answer in the test paper that will not be penalized or faulty. I will say this kind of thing even if I don't know them at all. I want you to talk about it. According to the opinions of the two parties, who is closer to the position of crown prince according to the conditions of the two parties."

Being seen through, this is a standard smooth answer, as Shiratori said, it is completely correct but it is equivalent to nonsense.Keener doesn't like to talk about these kinds of things, and if he does, he wants to try not to take a stand.Because this kind of thinking is too ingrained, I said this answer directly according to this line of thought.

Seeing that Shiratori asked seriously, he seemed to have to make a comparison, so he sighed and said slowly while thinking: "Brother Antonio is not as smart as Sister Juliette, and his academic achievements are better." In terms of political performance, it is not as good as Sister Juliet. It is not as popular as Sister Juliet. Although Antonio's mother is my father's original wife, she is also the main queen now, but you also know how much my father is. I like the Queen of Shengyi. In addition, the Queen of Shengyi passed away at a young age. Maybe the father always feels that he owes her? So he loves the house and the black, and he is very fond of Princess Juliet. Juliet managed it when she was 19 years old. The special phantom beast army is the only army in this country that is completely composed of phantom beasts. It is comparable to a division of ten human soldiers. Although Antonio has a part of the military power in name, it is actually false, and it is not considered a force at all. From the current point of view, from anyone's point of view, Queen Juliet has the advantage, right?"

"Then maybe Antonio wants to get more powerful force to strengthen his power?"

"But neither of those two people showed any sense of competition, or tried to fight for the position of crown prince. Even though Juliette was excellent, she didn't deliberately show off her talents. She always showed restraint and did her own business. … …At this stage, it is too early to say who will inherit the throne. Although Queen Juliet is favored, he also has the advantage of being the eldest son of the prince. His appearance is just pretending, and in that case, it can only be said that he is pretending too well—" He stopped suddenly, frowned, and sighed dully: "I really hate to speculate about other people's self here."

"So there's still a possibility?"

"I don't deny it. Do you suspect...?" Kaina narrowed his eyes: "Could it be that you suspect that Antonio is a grave robber?"

"Just raising this possibility." Shiratori said with a nonchalant smile, "Isn't it logical? A wise younger sister has both the respected background of the queen mother and the favor of the father, and now she is more powerful than herself. As a The dignity of the eldest brother, the dignity of being the eldest son of the king cannot be tolerated, so why is it strange to pursue stronger military power?"

"This is..."

"The Great Patriotic War was only 15 years ago. Many people who participated in it at that time are still alive. Maybe they found out about the weapon from somewhere. They guessed that it was stored in the Shenghua Palace and sent people to look for it. Even if it is not needed now, It’s also good to store it first. That weapon is not big, so it’s easy to store it. Just keeping it by your side can also boost your confidence.”

Shiratori said sternly: "From the perspective of succession to the throne, you, as a younger brother, can't hinder him anyway. But if he is the guy who is responsible for the tomb robbers, he may regard you as a threat. He will want to kill you It’s not surprising at all.”

"Um……"

"Well, anyway, it's just a 'possibility' at the moment. Anyway, no matter how much you think about it, you won't come to a conclusion, so don't bother thinking about it." Shiratori said, stood up from the bed, and looked out the window.

"Why don't we go and see Huiyue." He said suddenly.

Keener was a little surprised that he brought this up out of the blue.But I agreed.
