Guidebook for the Dark Duke

Evan looked at Duke Wilson, unable to react for a while.

What the hell does this... mean?Evan was a little confused. If he understood correctly, Duke Wilson meant that the king would die tonight, and there was only one reason for a person's death to be known in advance, which was that such a death had been planned long ago.

Duke Wilson wants the king dead!

Such an idea appeared in Evan's mind.

But before Evan had time to say anything else, there was a commotion in the ball, and the attention of Evan and Duke Wilson was attracted, and they looked in the direction of the commotion.

A terrified official stumbled in. He was wearing a high-end suit, but unfortunately it was already a little wrinkled at this time, and even his glasses were a little crooked. He saw Austrian standing in the middle at a glance. Lord Lamb ran towards him.

"Xun... Lord Lord." He looked as if he had just jumped out of the carriage, and his breath was still a little uneven.

"My lord, His Majesty the King has passed away!" He looked at Lord Oram with a look of panic, as if he was looking at his own life-saving straw.

Evan's heart skipped a beat, but the surroundings had already fallen into chaos. The noble lords and ladies who had been drinking together were all terrified and in an uproar at this time, but no matter who it was, the highest status at this time Lord Oram is their backbone, and no matter who is present, their eyes are looking in the direction of Lord Oram.

Lord Oram frowned slightly, and said in a low voice, "Where did you get the news? Where are the people from Buckingham Palace?"

This person is obviously an official. Logically speaking, people from Buckingham Palace should convey the news of the king's death, but now it is obviously wrong to let a civil servant come to pass the message.

"Buckingham Palace..." He looked slightly trembling: "Everyone in Buckingham Palace is under the control of Duke Rand, no one can come out."

"Then how do you know?" Duke Wilson came out suddenly and asked the question everyone wanted to ask.

Seeing that Duke Wilson was there, that person suddenly felt a lot more at ease. Everyone in the UK knew that Duke Wilson and Duke Rand were absolutely irreconcilable, and that the military strength in Duke Wilson's hands was enough to change the political situation.

"I have a good friend who works as a clerk in Buckingham Palace, and he told me." This clerk was a nail that Lord Oram put in the government, and he played a role at this time as expected.

This kind of words made everyone present believe a little bit, and everyone suddenly panicked. In such a chaotic and complicated political situation, everyone didn't feel it when the king was there. They only felt that if the king died, everything would be fine. But when the king really left, these people couldn't help but feel a little emboldened.

"Calm down!" Lord Oram put on a rare face, and the noise around him suddenly quieted down.

"Take him up and tidy up." Lord Oram waved his hand towards the servants beside him, and someone immediately came up and took him away.

After dealing with this, Lord Oram looked at the terrified nobles around him.

"Ladies, go up and rest first." Although Lord Oram's tone was very gentle, there was little room for negotiation in what he said.

This matter is really not suitable for these nervous ladies to talk to. Evan watched a few of them almost faint.

After Lord Oram said a word, the maids helped the ladies to leave immediately, and the remaining few gentlemen, although they looked better than the ladies, but the goodness was limited. Sweating profusely, I kept wiping my sweat with a handkerchief.

Because although some of these people do not have such a noble status, they also know the situation in London at this time. Lord Oram is definitely a supporter of Prince George. According to the civil servant just now, it is obvious that the Duke of Rand now occupies the They have the upper hand, but they are now tied to the chariot by Lord Oram. For some people who do not have a firm stand, life is simply worse than death.

"Gentlemen." After bringing these gentlemen with different thoughts to the small banquet hall, Lord Oram finally said: "Now there is an unexpected incident, and I think everyone is well aware."

Except for a few people who had a close relationship with Lord Oram who looked more calm, the expressions of the rest of the people were a little unpredictable.

Lord Oram had a panoramic view of the expressions of these people, and couldn't help a sneer in his heart, but his face was still gentle, with a hint of worry in his expression.

"Your Majesty passed away suddenly. The Duke of Rand kept his mourning secret, but Prince George is far away in Wales. Now London may have to rely on the princes." Lord Oram said very sincerely.

Such obedient words really have no effect on these old foxes, but since the words have been spoken, these people have to respond, after all, Oram's status is still there.

"My lord, you are too modest. We will listen to you on this matter." One of Lord Oram's confidantes suddenly said.

This sentence made the faces of the people around them look different, and it completely pierced that layer of window paper, and they had almost no way out.

Because although the Duke of Rand has the upper hand at this time, they are in the hands of Lord Oram. At this time, they can't be attached if they don't want to.

No matter how everyone looks, they can only submissively agree with such a sentence.

Lord Oram frowned slightly. Although these people are useless, if one more person can be tied up, it will always boost morale and let everyone see the current position of Duke Rand.

Now that these people were settled, Lord Oram didn't bother to talk nonsense with these people, so he asked the steward to bring a few people who were not confidantes up, and left a few confidantes to continue discussing plans.

During this process, Duke Wilson has always been on the side with Evan, without saying a word, but although he has not said a word, his silence now shows his attitude. The reason why everyone present is like this Easy to agree, I have to say that Duke Wilson's attitude also played a big role, because after all these people know that Duke Wilson is a man with soldiers in his hands.

After those people left, the expression on Lord Oram's face changed. He smiled and invited everyone to sit down, and even let Duke Wilson sit on top of him, and said: "Since His Majesty the King passed away, then our Things should be sorted out."

The people below all looked at Lord Oram with great spirits. These people are all supporters of Prince George, and they are even more closely related to Lord Oram. Naturally, they all know the inside story of this incident, so compared to those who People who are anxious, they are more confident.

"Prince George will be back in London tomorrow afternoon, please the Duke to stabilize the political situation in London for a while." Lord Oram looked at Duke Wilson with a smile.

Duke Wilson nodded with a cold face and didn't say much. Evan stood aside, but he was a little surprised. Isn't Prince George in Wales?Even by train, I'm afraid it won't take such a short time to get back to London from Wales.

There is definitely a problem here, Evan's expression flickered slightly.

The next few people talked about the ending of this matter, most of them were talking about how to deal with Duke Rand's court guards. In fact, there is nothing to say. They are now in Lord Oram's castle, Oram The lord is not a nobleman who is drunk and dreamy. This castle, I am afraid that there are already guards stationed at the moment they come in, so there is no problem for a period of time.

After the conversation, Evan and Duke Wilson returned to the guest room together. Because there were too many people, the two of them were assigned to the same room, which made Evan feel a little embarrassed, and Duke Wilson didn't look very comfortable.

Evan looked at Lord Oram with a slightly subtle expression, and knew that it was definitely done on purpose at this time. No matter how many guests there were, he would not let a duke share with others.

After the two returned to the room, there was an awkward silence at first, but in the end it was Duke Wilson who opened up the topic first.

"Are you scared today?" He looked at Evan with a little worry.

Evan smiled in his heart. He was taken aback, but he wasn't frightened.

"This incident is indeed a bit sudden." Evan smiled reservedly.

Duke Wilson sneered, "If Duke Rand hadn't pressed on, I'm afraid we wouldn't have come to this point."

Evan frowned slightly. After all, he was a religious person. The Duke talked about these frightening things in front of him. He really didn't know how to react.

"You..." He looked at Duke Wilson with a troubled expression.

Duke Wilson looked at him with a very gentle expression: "I know you can't accept it, but Richard is too ridiculous. George is a good boy. If he doesn't die, then many people will die innocently. Although I I did such a terrible thing, but I don't regret it, even if it makes my soul fall into a boundless hell, I am willing."

Looking at Duke Wilson's expression at this time, Evan was really puzzled. In the original book, the later Duke Wilson was described as a paranoid, but looking at him now, he felt something was different.

"You..." He was silent for a moment: "You will not fall into hell, I will pray for you."

Evan's words seemed to be a booster, and Duke Wilson was in high spirits all of a sudden. He walked up to Evan, and suddenly took his hand, excitedly saying: "Really? You really are like this Think about it?"

Evan wanted to retract his hand, but was held back by Duke Wilson. He couldn't help looking into the Duke's eyes, but found that his eyes were unusually firm, and he didn't even intend to let go. Wen could not help but frown.

"Your Excellency." His tone was still very calm: "Please let go of my hand."

He looked straight into Duke Wilson's eyes, there was no room for negotiation.

This person is so aggressive, but he must not allow him to treat himself as his subordinate, and he will never make any retreat on this issue.
