[Devil's Law] When the Tulips Bloom

The man in black who came was naturally the former number one knight in the mainland, Hussein who had betrayed the temple and was wanted by the whole continent. When Du Wei made up his mind to take advantage of this incident to kill the Pope, he started calculated.Knowing the general direction of things in the future-although many things are not accurate-but Du Wei still decided to take this opportunity to give it a try.Therefore, he wrote an urgent letter and sent it to Hussein, ordering him to keep an eye on Sebasta during this period of time no matter what, and the final result did not exceed Du Wei's expectations.

An excellent performance of a praying mantis catching a cicada and an oriole behind him, Hussein silently followed Du Wei's instructions, directly knocked out the seriously injured Pope, dragged his horse and ran in another direction.After watching Hussein go away, Du Wei bent down to pick up the badge belonging to Aragon that fell out of the Pope's staff gem, and then walked to Bai Hechou, "Well, Your Majesty the Witch King, You see, I saved your life by doing this, can you stop trying to catch me and go to the Snow Mountain? You really can’t bear to part with your magical creature, how about I send someone to collect the mainland and get one for you?”

Faced with the changing situation, Bai Hechou didn't change his expression at all, he just looked at Du Wei and said in a very sure tone, "You have calculated everything in advance, you originally wanted to use me to kill the pope. "

"Yes." Du Wei answered directly without talking.

"Why do you know?" Bai Hechou asked. From his descent from the mountain to the impromptu capture of the Tulip Duke to the route he chose to go back to the snow mountain, Bai Hechou had never told anyone in advance, even if it was Lan Hai. It is impossible for Yue to guess so accurately.But Du Wei, as if he knew everything in advance, was able to set a trap in this cold spring pass, waiting for him to reap the benefits after the decisive battle with the Pope.

"It's a bit complicated to explain." Du Wei sighed, "What if I say I know it? I know you want to fight Lan Haiyue, I know you plan to take me back to Daxue Mountain, and I know you will provoke the temple halfway, I know that the Pope is here to kill you, and I also know that Sebasta has no good intentions."

"Hmph, Du Wei, you're very interesting." Bai Hechou smiled suddenly, as if he didn't mind the question anymore, "If ordinary people are asked this way, they will only try to find a reason, but you are straightforward."

"So I'm not an ordinary person."

"Hahahaha, Du Wei, you are really interesting." Bai He said sadly, "Forget it, I don't care what you know or not, you have saved me this time, and I won't deny it. Don't worry, I don't care. I will catch you up the snow mountain again, and as for the fact that you found someone to kill the Pope, I won’t talk so much.”

"Then I would like to thank Your Majesty the Witch King." Du Wei received a satisfactory answer, looked around, and felt that this place is really too spacious, and Bai Hechou's injury needs at least one night to recuperate, leaving him alone is always a problem. Some are dangerous, and I can't stay here all the time, I need to return to the imperial capital quickly.So Du Wei decided to be a good man to the end, pulled Bai Hechou on his horse, sent him to the forest ahead, and found a hidden cave to house him, "Okay, Your Majesty the Witch King, I'll send you here, see you later gone."

Bai Hechou glanced at Du Wei, but didn't say much.Du Wei didn't think it was strange, he rode his horse back along the road, and after carefully erasing the traces, he returned to the nearest town as fast as he could, changed his clothes and bought a horse, and started to head towards the imperial capital at high speed. direction rush.

Hussein did not rejoin Du Wei. After he dragged the Pope out for dozens of miles and killed him, he also left at the fastest speed. If he went to see Du Wei now, he would simply cause trouble for each other.Therefore, from the very beginning, they had no intention of converging.

When Du Wei went back to the imperial capital, he was much more embarrassed than when he left. He galloped all the way and made a lot of dust.Moreover, he took a long detour, from the northwest to the south, and then returned to the imperial capital from the south, trying to make people think that the Pope's death in the northwest had nothing to do with him.In fact, from the very beginning when Du Wei was taken away by Bai Hechou, he had been very careful. He wore a wide hood to cover his face all day long, and never spoke or made a sound when other people were around. I'm afraid of leaving some telltale feet that people will hold on to.

When Du Wei finally returned to the imperial capital, the news that the Pope died inexplicably near Cold Spring Pass in the northwest had already spread.The people in the temple were going crazy. His majesty, the Pope of their majestic temple of the goddess of light, was killed just like that!This is simply a shame and humiliation that has never been seen in a thousand years!

The power dispute inside the temple was also very fierce. Different factions competed for the candidate for the next pope. This is a good thing. The death of the current pope caught everyone by surprise.Because of the magic of the temple, the people in the temple knew the appearance of the person who killed the Pope, but the problem also lies here.Generally speaking, the person who can kill the Pope is definitely the top on the mainland. This kind of person can easily distinguish his identity as long as he has seen his fighting style. After all, the way of using power is hidden. Can't live with people.

But this time is different. The Pope fought Bai Heshou before and was seriously injured, much weaker than ordinary healthy people.When Hussein killed him, he didn't need to use any martial arts at all. A long sword that was no more than an ordinary one directly killed the Pope.Hussein's full beard and beard also concealed his appearance very well, and even Hussein deliberately used the method Du Wei taught him before to change his body shape - into a standard sense. Fatty, let the people in the temple not recognize him so easily.

As a result of this kind of hatchback, the people in the temple had images of the murderer, but they still didn't know who the person who killed the Pope was!The people in the temple were almost out of breath. This was the biggest unsolved case since the establishment of the temple for thousands of years. The pope died, and there was an image of the murderer, but the murderer could not be found!The temple directly listed the highest wanted warrant—the original wanted warrant for Hussein was immediately pushed to the second place, and all the temple branches in the empire spared no effort to search for the murderer who killed the Pope.But who is Hussain?

The former head of the Holy Knights, he has long been hunted down by the temple, and he still has a lot of experience in how to escape the search of the temple.In addition, the people in the temple had no other clues except for a portrait that was far from him. Therefore, Hussein returned to the northwest without incident after searching the temple layer by layer.

When Du Wei returned to the Duke's Mansion, Gabriel rushed out of the room and hugged Du Wei.Du Wei was in a good mood seeing Gabriel, and Du Wei was also very satisfied with the news he had heard since entering the city, so he laughed and patted Gabriel on the shoulder, "What's the matter, Gabriel? I haven't seen you for a few days, so I just think so." I?"

"Brother!" Gabriel stared at Du Wei very dissatisfied, "Brother, tell me honestly, what have you been doing all this time? You clearly said that you would accompany me, but on the first day I arrived in the imperial capital, you Just throw me aside!"

Du Wei touched his nose, and pulled Gabriel into the room to talk, "Okay, Gabriel, am I in a hurry?" Seeing Gabriel's brows getting tighter and tighter, and his mouth raised higher and higher, Du Wei had no choice but to surrender, "Okay, okay , I will make it up to you, okay?"

Gabriel understands the principle of enough is enough, and he doesn't care so much after getting Du Wei's promise, "Okay, I will forcefully trust you, brother again."

Du Wei breathed a sigh of relief, comforted Gabriel for a while, and then went to take a bath and change clothes.When Du Wei came out in a light suit, there were already steaming hot meals on the table outside. Gabriel sat at the table, stood up when he saw Du Wei, and waved to him with a smile, "Brother must not have eaten yet, right? My brother and I eat together."

Du Wei also felt hungry, so he sat next to Gabriel, and the two brothers ate a hearty meal.When enjoying dessert, Du Wei was interested in asking about the current situation, and said, "Gabri, what happened to the temple recently? I heard that the pope died suddenly?"

Gabriel said, "Well, it just happened a few days ago. The temple lost face this time, and the pope died inexplicably. It was said that there was a murderer, but he didn't know who it was. It was just a portrait."

Du Wei continued to ask, "Did the temple say where the Pope died?"

"It seems to be close to the northwest, near Cold Spring Pass." Speaking of this, Gabriel suddenly looked up at his brother. His brother's fief is the Desa province in the northwest, and the Pope died near Cold Spring Pass in the northwest. Could it be that One thing... Gabriel turned pale, "Brother, the Pope's death will not be with you..."

"What are you thinking!" Du Wei patted Gabriel's head, laughed, and said, "Do you think I have the ability to kill the Pope? Gabriel, your brother and I don't have the strength yet."

Gabriel heaved a sigh of relief, thinking about it, no matter how great his brother is, he is only in his teens now, how could he kill the Pope?Moreover, he had seen the portrait of the so-called murderer of the pope, and he looked nothing like his brother at all. "I'm just talking casually."

"Now the people in the temple are all lunatics with anxious red eyes. Don't say such nonsense in the future, and be careful to cause trouble." Du Wei warned, and then naturally skipped this topic, and Gabrielle Talking about other interesting things, he made Gabriel laugh while talking, and Du Wei asked casually, "Is there anything else happening in the imperial capital recently?"

Gabriel's small face immediately pulled down without saying a word.

Du Wei was taken aback for a moment, did something really happen? "What's wrong? What's the matter?" This question was asked by the manager Zach who was waiting on the side.

Zach looked at Du Wei with a beaming face, and he almost didn't say congratulations to the Duke. He said, "There is something, the regent has already revealed a few days ago, saying that he intends to formally designate the marriage." , marry Princess Louise to you, my lord!"

"What did you say?!" Du Wei's face darkened completely.
