Emperor Fire
Chapter 119 The Battle for the Throne
Mrs. Rachel said: "His curse cannot be undone."
Queen Samantha said: "That method is no different from not being able to untie it. I will not watch him slowly lose himself and become a puppet in your hands."
"The curse can be completely undone." Mrs. Rachel looked at her mockingly, "If you were willing to let him go, he would be able to untie the curse and return your child to you intact. Saying it is just a matter of effort. It was your ambition and desire that ruined the life of your child. If I remember correctly, that child was only 21 years old when he died. It is the best age in life, carrying the hope and glory of the entire empire. He could have had the best prospect and future just like Ciro, but his most beloved mother personally sent him to a dead end."
Queen Samantha stared at her coldly, and said word by word: "You are the one who inflicted the poison."
"You gave me the poison." Mrs. Rachel said, "Even if you poisoned me and pretended to blame it all on me, you know very well in your heart that you killed your child." .”
The atmosphere is solemn.
The wind rustled the grass in the garden.
Queen Samantha laughed suddenly.
The carriage was surrounded by three floors inside and three floors outside, and it galloped down the avenue like a rainbow.Galen personally led the crown prince's guards to clear the way ahead.So far, he has repelled two groups of imperial guards who came forward to stop them in the name of martial law.
Shiro looked gloomy.
The dark red curtain reflected on his face, like a bloody light.
Keane took out a list from the interspatial bag and handed it to Xi Luo, "This is the list of Mrs. Rachel's confidantes. Please have a look at it, Your Highness."
Ciro took the list, his eyes sparkling.City lords, merchants, magicians... talents from all walks of life. "You know what that means?"
Keane said: "As long as His Highness needs, these people can be used by His Highness at any time."
Ciro said: "I will probably eradicate them."
Soso glanced in surprise.The Ciro in front of him made him feel very strange. It was not the one he met at the St. Padres Academy of Magic, nor the one he had been with during this time, it seemed to be another person.But he quickly lowered his head, carefully hiding his surprise.At this moment, he couldn't let any of his emotions distract Ciro.
Keane said without changing his face: "If this is what His Highness wishes, I will achieve it for His Highness."
Vincent said with a smile: "Gallon will soon fall out of favor."
Ciro stared at Kean, and slowly said: "What if I add Hall to the list I want to eradicate?"
Keane's expression froze slightly, "Your Highness won't do that."
Ciro raised his eyebrows and said, "You are not a gallon."
Keane looked at him puzzled.
"So you don't know me too well." He wanted very, very much in his heart to do that.There was a sneer at the corner of Ciro's mouth, but in Keane's eyes, his heart was pounding.If the other party is Prince Hall...
Keane gritted his teeth and said, "I will grant His Highness's wish."
Ciro showed a strange look on his face, "Aren't you afraid that Mrs. Rachel will come back?"
Keane's arms wrapped in the sleeves slowly tightened, and he said after a while: "She won't be coming back."
The carriage stopped suddenly.
After a while, Galen opened the door from the outside and said respectfully, "Your Highness, we're here."
There are many kinds of laughter.
Flattery, sneer, smirk, sneer, sneer, smirk, laughter... But Queen Samantha's smile is not any of the above.She smiled as if she was smiling, but she couldn't see why she was smiling.
Mrs. Rachel looked at her calmly, as if she were looking at a madman.
"You are irritating me, why?" Queen Samantha slowly restrained her smile and asked calmly.
"Because if I don't say something now, I will never have the chance to say it." Mrs. Rachel seemed to be commenting on today's breakfast in a calm tone, "From the moment you gave me the poison, I knew that after the event, You will never let me go."
Queen Samantha did not deny, "But you finally helped me achieve my goal."
Mrs. Rachel said: "My life is not important, what is important is that you don't forget your promise, you said you would give him freedom."
Queen Samantha looked at her. "Yes, I promised. But you don't seem to keep your promise."
Mrs. Rachel looked at her.
Queen Samantha said: "I told you once, stop playing tricks in secret, but you sent Keen to assassinate Ciro."
Mrs. Rachel said: "If he died at that time, he might be much happier than now. At least he doesn't have to see the true face of his mother's viciousness, at least he will think that his mother loves him at that time."
Queen Samantha said: "Then, I'm sorry to disappoint you."
"Want to know Ciro's expression when the truth comes out? I'd be happy to tell you."
"I can imagine that he is my child."
"Yes." Mrs. Rachel raised her head and looked at the dark clouds in the sky, "If I could, I really want to see you crumble when your son destroys you."
Queen Samantha said: "You can use your rich imagination to imagine."
Mrs. Rachel smiled, as clear as a brook, "You really make me sick."
Queen Samantha accepted it indifferently, "What else?"
"Also, I sympathize with you." Mrs. Rachel said, "What you are doing now will only lead to one result in the end. That is, you think you have got everything, but in fact you have nothing, and you still have what you have All lost."
Queen Samantha said: "There is nothing to say to Hall?"
Mrs. Rachel's eyes slowly softened, "His birth was a mistake. If he can correct this mistake, I will be gratified for him."
Queen Samantha said: "He is your child, and he is also very young."
Mrs. Rachel laughed self-deprecatingly: "Yes. We are the same kind of people, so we sit together."
Queen Samantha said: "Which way of death do you like?"
"Can I choose?"
"If it's reasonable, yes." Queen Samantha drank tea slowly.
Mrs. Rachel smiled and said, "I want to see you stabbing my body with a knife."
Queen Samantha looked at her, and said after a while, "I never get my hands dirty."
Mrs. Rachel said: "Yes. Because you controlled my hand before."
Queen Samantha shifted her gaze to her hand, "I want to control it again."
The stove was burning in the house.
Murdoch and Hopkins sat on both sides of the fire, each with a glass of red wine, very comfortable.
Ciro sat between them, facing the fire.The blazing fire desperately wanted to melt the frozen ice on his face, but it only made his face more indifferent.Vincent and Soso were left outside to wait.
"Your Highness." Hopkins glanced at Murdoch, who was still silent, and said in a low voice, "Maybe you don't know yet, His Majesty the Emperor was assassinated and died an hour and a half ago."
Shi Luo was taken aback, his gloomy face became darker, more gloomy than the sky outside the window.
Murdoch said: "I heard that the death was due to the power of faith, um, so the suspects are those two guys from the God of Light."
Hopkins said: "Yes. So even if you have enough evidence to accuse His Majesty the Emperor of imprisoning you before, it is useless now."
Yes.
Ciro did not tell them about the conspiracy that Queen Samantha might be doing, because these things cannot be said on the table.He has no evidence, Mrs. Rachel's words, Keane's words, and even Olivia's words are not enough to accuse a queen of an empire.So the only thing he can do is to tell the truth about his disappearance, so as to win the Richard family and the Danya family to his side.On the surface, it is against Castaron II, and secretly, it is trying to seize control of the three major families from Queen Samantha.
But Kasdaron II is dead.
He actually died.
Shiro's heart was empty.When we met for the last time, I had already predicted this ending, so I couldn't help reminding him to pay attention to his own safety.However, in the end, the ending did not change.
"Your Highness." Hopkins looked at him worriedly.
Ciro raised his hand and slowly wiped his face, "Did the murderer use the power of faith?"
Hopkins said: "The rumors say so."
Xi Luo said: "Only the God of Light in the Dream Continent can use the power of faith?"
Hopkins looked at Murdoch.
The latter shrugged.
"Dream Continent is very magical. We can't deny any possibility. However, the God of Light is obviously the most suspected." Hopkins answered very skillfully.
Xi Luo said: "Can members of the Society of Light only use the power of faith to kill people?"
"Of course not." Murdoch said, "They are best at killing people with words, and inspiring people is their forte."
Ciro originally wanted to shift their attention to the queen or Mrs. Rachel, but when he heard Murdoch's words, he suddenly realized that he had overlooked a very important thing - after the death of King Castalon II, who would be the most important? Can benefit?
Obviously, it's me.
Mrs. Rachel is only the mistress of King Castaron II, and Hall is only the second heir.Queen Samantha hides behind the scenes, but her front-screen representative is herself.
No matter how many suspicions the God of Light has on the surface, in reality, he is the most suspect!
Especially since he just said that King Castaron II intends to put him under house arrest.In this case, in order to ascend to the throne of the Emperor of the Empire and to fight back against the oppression of him by Castaron II, it is logical that he preemptively murdered him.
Ciro's back was covered in cold sweat, because just now, even he himself almost wanted to convince himself that he was the one who killed King Castaron II.
Too perfect an excuse.
"Your Highness?" Hopkin's voice brought his attention back.
Ciro collected himself, and seemed to want to read something from their faces, but he only saw Hopkin's calmness and Murdoch's silence.
Two old foxes.
"If father really died at the hands of the God of Light, then as his son and heir, I will definitely seek justice for him!" Shi Luo's tone changed immediately.Yes, although they will suspect that he is the murderer, so far, they must not have any evidence.He didn't know if there would be "evidence" against him in a few days, but at least it wasn't possible so soon.So he had to seize this time difference and strive for more benefits and bargaining chips for himself.
Hopkins said: "Your Majesty will be very happy to hear these words in the Spirit of Heaven."
Ciro said straight to the point: "I need the support of the two of you."
Hopkins and Murdoch exchanged glances.
Ciro said: "The empire needs a leader."
Hopkins said slowly: "The queen is currently sitting in the palace."
Shi Luo's heart suddenly turned cold.At this time, the first thing she thought of was not him, but herself.
Murdoch, who cherishes words like gold, suddenly said: "At this time, His Royal Highness should stand up."
Hopkins gave him a surprised look.
Murdoch didn't seem to feel how shocking he said, and asked: "Isn't it? Your Highness is the future of the empire."
Hopkins quickly understood what he meant.Castdaron II died, leaving behind two heirs—Crown Ciro and Prince Hall.For them, who is more suitable to be emperor?The answer is without a doubt.From the very beginning, Mrs. Rachel was not on their side.As a result, Ciro is the only candidate.What's more, Queen Samantha has already rushed to the palace first, taking the lead!
When Hopkins reacted, Ciro also realized that they did not know their mother's conspiracy.In other words, in their minds, they and their mother are still in the same trench.So the same queen sitting in the palace has different ideas for them.
"Yes. I must stand up." Ciro did not give up this opportunity.He said with deep meaning, "Compared with my mother, I need the support of the two of you more."
Hopkins and Murdoch looked at each other suspiciously, neither seeming to understand what he meant.
Shiro breathed a sigh of relief and stood up slowly.As long as the three major families don't know the queen's plan and don't stand behind her, the situation won't be too difficult to deal with.He smiled slightly at Hopkins and Murdoch: "I have to take up my responsibilities. Please continue, both of you."
The door was suddenly slammed open.
Soso staggered in.
Ciro subconsciously wanted to reach out to pick him up, but because there was a distance of two or three meters between the two of them, he only had time to help him up on the carpet when he rushed over.
"What happened?" Ciro helped Soso rub his nose while supporting him.
Suo Suo was in so much pain that tears welled up in his eyes, "Fire Element, it's moving so hard."
Vincent stood at the door and added, "The fire element has rioted."
Queen Samantha said: "That method is no different from not being able to untie it. I will not watch him slowly lose himself and become a puppet in your hands."
"The curse can be completely undone." Mrs. Rachel looked at her mockingly, "If you were willing to let him go, he would be able to untie the curse and return your child to you intact. Saying it is just a matter of effort. It was your ambition and desire that ruined the life of your child. If I remember correctly, that child was only 21 years old when he died.

Queen Samantha laughed suddenly.
The carriage was surrounded by three floors inside and three floors outside, and it galloped down the avenue like a rainbow.Galen personally led the crown prince's guards to clear the way ahead.So far, he has repelled two groups of imperial guards who came forward to stop them in the name of martial law.
Shiro looked gloomy.
The dark red curtain reflected on his face, like a bloody light.
Keane took out a list from the interspatial bag and handed it to Xi Luo, "This is the list of Mrs. Rachel's confidantes. Please have a look at it, Your Highness."
Ciro took the list, his eyes sparkling.City lords, merchants, magicians... talents from all walks of life. "You know what that means?"
Keane said: "As long as His Highness needs, these people can be used by His Highness at any time."
Ciro said: "I will probably eradicate them."
Soso glanced in surprise.The Ciro in front of him made him feel very strange. It was not the one he met at the St. Padres Academy of Magic, nor the one he had been with during this time, it seemed to be another person.But he quickly lowered his head, carefully hiding his surprise.At this moment, he couldn't let any of his emotions distract Ciro.
Keane said without changing his face: "If this is what His Highness wishes, I will achieve it for His Highness."
Vincent said with a smile: "Gallon will soon fall out of favor."
Ciro stared at Kean, and slowly said: "What if I add Hall to the list I want to eradicate?"
Keane's expression froze slightly, "Your Highness won't do that."
Ciro raised his eyebrows and said, "You are not a gallon."
Keane looked at him puzzled.
