Everyone Says I'm the Demon King [Unlimited]

Chapter 53 The Princess' Choice (10)

Prince Derek looked at the cardinal holding the scriptures in front of him with a calm expression, and was thinking about whether to communicate with him in private, when Snow on the side spoke.

There was a hint of sarcasm on his indifferent face, which was concealed under the slightly raised corners of his mouth: "The bishop is right. Just like similar daffodils are not necessarily the same plant, of course similar figures are not the same. Not necessarily the same person."

Having said that, Snow looked at Cardinal again, and said with a smile, "Bishop, do you think I'm right?"

As soon as he said this, the atmosphere in the audience that had been somewhat simmering suddenly became alive again, as if a handful of flammable firewood was suddenly thrown into a flame that was about to burn out, and the flames sprang up again in an instant.

At this time, Snow's words were the flammable firewood, and people like him were usually called troublemakers.

Prince Derek remained calm on the surface, but was very surprised in his heart.

His teammates are hiding deeper than one.

If it wasn't for the failure of the Lance knight's assassination, he would never have thought that this princess-like admirer would be an awakened one, or on his side.

And just when Prince Derek had doubts about the cardinal's identity, the young cabinet minister ran out to intervene again.

"Just like similar daffodils are not necessarily the same plant, similar body shapes are not necessarily the same person."

There are many meanings to this one sentence.

Just listening to the second half of the sentence, this is talking to him.

But after listening to the first half of the sentence, combined with the current situation, it is simply yin and yang. A little more association makes people think that the daffodil flower on the inner ground has been swapped long ago.

This point coincides with Prince Derek's plan.

Replace the daffodils in the princess' room, and then plant the crime of poisoning the king on the other party.Although this action failed, Prince Derek is still ready to use this to continue the war of public opinion.

Only Princess Catherine has daffodils in her room in the whole palace, so she can spread rumors that she has a long-planned grievance against the king.Otherwise, the entire royal family would be deeply poisoned, so why is she alive and kicking alone?

So what if she acted like someone was setting her up for now?

Only Maid Meili had seen Prince Derek in the audience, so he spread rumors that Maid Meili was tortured by Princess Catherine all the year round, and was coerced to kill the king, and she was already mentally ill.

After all, the two guards did not see any trace of the person.

Regardless of whether the daffodil has been dropped or not, just say it has been dropped.

It's just that rumors are not difficult to make up, but the difficulty is to have people believe them and spread them.

Especially now that Princess Catherine has begun to take power, how could it be possible to sit back and ignore the rumors.Maid Mei Li is not dumb either, so she will naturally explain.

Therefore, Prince Derek was naturally very surprised when he first heard the cardinal speak for himself.

In such a religious country, if his teammates have such an identity, the credibility of spreading rumors will be greatly improved.After all, the vast majority of the people in the entire kingdom have never seen the royal family, and they are not completely clear about their behavior.

Even if there are unbelievers, they cannot resist the power of religion.

After several rounds of brainwashing, the uneducated people at the bottom will believe it, and hate the princess they once admired, and avoid it.

But Snow's speech just now also contained the possibility that the daffodils in Princess Catherine's room were dropped by the other party, which made Prince Derek hesitate.

There are only two of his teammates, and Lance Knight must be one of them.

So which one is the remaining one, the cardinal or the cabinet lord?

Compared with Prince Derek's secret surprise, the anger of the head of the border garrison is much more obvious.

The group leader in his 30s said angrily, "What do you mean?"

He simply said: "I'm relatively straight, and I don't play with those twists and turns. Let me just say it, are you suspicious of Princess Catherine? Do you suspect that this daffodil flower that was intact on the ground has been exchanged?" ? Suspected that the princess who was poisoned lying on the bed and assassinated poisoned her father?"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere was tense for a while, and the hearts of most people present seemed to be roasted on fire. I am afraid that the relationship between the two countries will be shattered, and the plan of the two countries to jointly fight against the Bandit will be aborted.

Seeing that the situation was slipping into an uncontrollable state, cracks began to appear in the Cardinal's original demeanor of an outsider.

He glanced at the calm Princess Catherine, seeing that the other party had no intention of speaking, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes.

The cardinal quickly said, "Calm down the general. I don't think Mr. Snow meant that, but wanted to express that both of them are innocent."

"Prince Derek is not a gangster who wants to frame Princess Catherine, and Princess Catherine is even less likely to be a vicious person who intends to kill her father."

Seeing Princess Catherine looking over with Gujing Wubo's eyes, but still did not make a statement, the cardinal pursed his lips and said decisively: "The figure who broke in was not Prince Derek, and the daffodils that fell on the ground were never dropped. However, I won’t be dropped in the future!”

The head of the border garrison looked better now. He put away his aggressive look and was about to say something when Snow spoke again.

He raised his brows and said, "My lord bishop, you can't be so arbitrary, in case the daffodils you take out from the princess' room in the future are missing a piece of root..."

Prince Derek looked over instantly.

After hearing the cardinal say this just now, he just thought so, and was thinking about whether to use this loophole to do it again, but he didn't expect to be said so by Snow.

Is this guy on his side?

Or is it that the talent of his teammate is really top-notch?

However, looking at the appearance of the cardinal holding back and forth, he doesn't look like an awakened person. It seems that he is purely an NPC who has concerns and intends to make peace between the two countries.

Then it is really difficult to win him over.

The cardinal looked at Princess Catherine, who had never made a statement, and became angry again with the head of the border garrison and Snow, whose face turned pale: "Master Snow, you are just picking on the thorns. Now we see it with our own eyes. As you can see, the daffodils on the ground are intact, and it is absolutely impossible to be dropped. If the daffodils suddenly become damaged afterwards, it must have been dropped by someone else."

"In short," the cardinal said with a heartbroken heart, "Princess Catherine must be innocent."

After he finished speaking, Princess Catherine, who had been silent at the side, finally moved.

The other party raised her slender and white neck, and her expression was calm, like a tall white swan, slightly different from her usual gentle and generous image, appearing both calm and majestic.

The other cabinet officials and officers of the garrison who witnessed the farce present thought to themselves.

Although Princess Catherine seems a little strange, but these changes seem to be reasonable.

Although Princess Catherine has a good temper, gentleness and generosity, and is considerate of soldiers, this does not mean that the other party is a person who is slaughtered.

As a princess who has not been favored since she was a child, being able to respond first in times of crisis, being able to deal with crises in an orderly manner, which is in itself a manifestation of firm will.

Or it can be said that Princess Catherine has never changed, but without any evidence, after being severely slandered many times, the other party finally showed her temper.

Princess Catherine said: "Master Snow, I appreciate your cautious attitude towards possible crimes. I just don't know how cautious you are about convicting others?"

Holding the hem of her skirt, she took a step forward, stepping over the dusty ground, before Snow could reply, "How many crimes are you going to convict me with just your words? Since a single narcissus can make you emit so much , then is it enough for you to incriminate Prince Derek with a careless remark from my maid?"

"Still," Princess Catherine glanced over, her pitch-black eyes were like inorganic glass balls, gazing at a little cold light refracted in from the window, "You just saw that Mary was ill and I recovered quickly, so you couldn't help but let me also Taste a different kind of pain?"

As soon as she said this, the eyes of other officials in the cabinet changed when they looked at Snow.

As we all know, the other party is the fiancé of Princess Mary. Because of the king's incompetence, the other party currently controls most of the state affairs.

If the king unfortunately dies, Princess Catherine, as the first in line of succession, will conflict with Snow anyway.Unless Princess Catherine dies and Princess Mary becomes queen, the conflict between the two can be reconciled.

It seems that the other party is planning to strike first?

The cabinet was not monolithic, and many senior officials who came from senior noble families naturally could not understand Snow's behavior.Even if it is not to help Princess Catherine, they are willing to find some stumbling blocks for each other.

Therefore, the scene became lively immediately, and all the officials chattered:

"Princess, there is no need to be angry. Everyone here can see clearly that the daffodil is not damaged at all!"

"If someone tries to continue to slander and frame the princess after this, we will definitely seek justice for the princess."

"Master Snow, be careful with your words."

"..."

The cardinal saw that Princess Catherine's mouth not only did not calm the matter, but added fuel to the fire, he knew that he had lost the initiative to control the situation.

The behavior of the other party is not based on his will, and his heart is so strong that he doesn't care about his identity at all.

Sure enough, his strength alone was not enough to shake this situation.

He wants to make a decision as soon as possible.

The cardinal made up his mind.

Snow, however, was not affected by other people's criticism, but looked at Princess Catherine greedily.

He was not angry when he heard the other party's rebuttal, but smiled and said, "Princess Catherine, don't be angry. I'm just making an analogy. There is really no other meaning."

Having said this, Snow turned his head to look at Prince Derek, "I think Prince Derek will agree with my analogy."

"Since it is impossible for Prince Derek to frame the princess, how can the princess murder the king? Are you right, Prince Derek?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone present felt that something was wrong.

Why do you sound obedient?

Lu Fengdeng frowned slightly.

This way of speaking seems a bit familiar.

However, before they could react, a guard rushed in from outside the door.

The other party looked nervous and out of breath, and said as soon as he entered the door: "The king is dead!"
