[Devil's Law] When the Tulips Bloom

Chapter 42 [The old emperor died]

Gabriel happily followed Du Wei all day long. Du Wei naturally loved his younger brother wholeheartedly. The three sisters who are too close to the Liszt family.Fortunately, Gabriel's mind is completely on Du Wei's brother now, and he doesn't seem to have any interest in hooking up girls, which makes Du Wei heave a sigh of relief.

In fact, it was not easy for Gabriel to follow Du Wei. He had to practice martial arts every day, and he had to accompany Du Wei when he was dealing with various affairs.Gabriel's itinerary was well arranged by Du Wei, time was running out, and the day of war with the criminals was not far away, so Du Wei could only force Gabriel to grow at the fastest speed.Of course he could protect Gabriel well behind his back, but that would be tantamount to breaking his brother's wings. He had never done such a thing in his previous life, let alone this life.

Although Gabriel felt tired, he never complained. He followed Du Wei energetically every day as a little tail, and by the way, he had a good relationship with the military officers of the Tulip family.A group of people headed by General Longbottom had a good feeling for Gabriel. The Luo Lin family naturally had the temperament of a military general, and Gabriel was Du Wei's younger brother, so everyone naturally included him in their circle.As for the civil servants, it's not that Gabriel doesn't get close to them, it's that many civil servants without Philip are so busy all day long that they don't have much time to spare.

In short, Gabriel's little life was very good and nourishing, but before Gabriel was free and easy, a rather heavyweight message came from the imperial capital.

"What did you say?" Du Wei was discussing the matter of the hot air balloon factory with everyone. He planned to further increase production in the near future and expand the number of air forces. Unexpectedly, such news came from the imperial capital, "Augustine The sixth is dead?" Du Wei didn't mean to call His Majesty at all.

The person who came to deliver the message nodded, "This is a message from the royal family, saying that His Majesty Augustine VI has passed away, and the matter of national mourning has been sent out. Now after the funeral, His Royal Highness the Regent will be prepared to enthroned. Great gift." In the past few years, Augustine VI has really not had much sense of existence, and there are not a few people who look forward to His Royal Highness the Regent's official ascension to the throne.

Du Wei blinked, finally absorbed the news, and couldn't help touching his chin, why did the old emperor die at this time?Didn't Chen say that he would be closely monitored?Well, but this time Chen did not recognize the Pope as Godfather, it would be better if the old emperor died earlier, Chen can officially assume the throne. "knew."

After Du Wei sent people away, he immediately asked people to prepare. He was going back to the imperial capital to attend the enthronement ceremony of the regent—er, no, the funeral of the old emperor should be attended first—as for learning that his Tulip The Duke was about to walk away in an extremely irresponsible manner. Du Wei said that he didn't want to know what the mentality of the officials he left in the Desa province was like.

Gabriel was very dissatisfied with Du Wei's behavior of leaving them behind again, so he immediately approached his brother and asked, "Brother, can I go to the imperial capital with you?"

Du Wei thought about it, and it seemed that there was nothing wrong with this, so he agreed simply, "Yes."

Gabriel was satisfied with Du Wei's affirmative answer. The boy smiled and turned into his brother's little tail again, and said, "By the way, isn't that princess Louise still in the northwest? The emperor's death, When you go back to the imperial capital, don't you need to take her with you?"

"I forgot." Du Wei really didn't remember this matter. After being reminded by Gabriel, he sent someone to ask the princess. Naturally, Louise would set off with Du Wei to return to the imperial capital.

Because of the princess accompanying him, this time Du Wei returned to the imperial capital so he could not travel so lightly and simply for speed. Two luxurious carriages—one for the princess, one for Du Wei and Gabriel—the mighty accompanying people traveled all the way from the northwest to the capital. to the imperial capital.When we arrived at the imperial capital, all the people in the city were wearing the emperor's funeral attire, but there was no sadness on the faces of the people in the city. The era of the old emperor Augustine VI had come to an end three years ago. He is the person everyone expects, and soon everyone will be able to officially change their address and call him Your Majesty.

After entering the imperial capital, Princess Louise's carriage naturally drove directly into the palace. Du Wei and Gabriel went back to the Duke's mansion first, but before they had a rest to take a bath and change clothes, the court envoys came to visit early, His Royal Highness the Prince Regent Sir Tulip Duke please.Gabriel's face turned black. Does the Prince Regent have any common sense? At least let my brother take a break!Du Wei was very happy, changed his clothes neatly, and followed the court envoy.

Du Wei met Prince Chen in front of Augustine VI's coffin. The regent who was about to ascend to the throne was standing quietly at the moment. He turned his head only after Du Wei came, smiled gently, and said, "Du Wei, you're back."

"You all step back." Du Wei thinks that there are too many people in the way here, and they are not all Chen's confidantes like in the Regent's Palace. who.Duke Tulip, who could already be regarded as the most powerful minister of the empire, spoke, but the guards guarding the mourning hall hesitated. Logically speaking, only the royal family could give orders to them, but...they looked at His Royal Highness the Regent still With gentle smiles on their faces, they obediently obeyed Du Wei's order and left.

Soon there were only Prince Chen and Du Wei left in the mourning hall. Du Wei stepped forward and hugged Prince Chen directly, "Your Highness, I'm back." Simple words have a different kind of charm, Du Wei admitted When he heard Prince Chen say "Du Wei, you're back", his heart was deeply touched.

Prince Chen was hugged tightly by Du Wei, with a helpless expression on his face, but he reached out and hugged Du Wei instead. "Okay," said Prince Chen, "let go of me first, what do we look like? Are you planning to kill my father?"

Du Wei was amused by Prince Chen's words, let go of him, but still held his hand, "Your Highness, how did His Majesty the Emperor die?"

Du Wei is the one who can ask such words in front of Prince Chen without any scruples. Hearing his question, Prince Chen's expression is rare and subtle, with a little helplessness, a little depression, and a little Feeling guilty, Prince Chen finally said, "Well, you must have been pissed off by me..."

"...Ah?" Du Wei was still thinking about whether the old emperor was killed by another woman, but when he heard Prince Chen say that he was mad at him, Du Wei was at a loss, "Did you die of madness? Your Highness, What have you done?"

Prince Chen gave Du Wei a sidelong glance, "You also have your share in this."

Speaking of this, Du Wei is not a fool, so he figured it out as soon as he turned his mind.Do you dare to believe that His Majesty Augustine VI heard about the matter between him and Chen, and then ran to verify with Chen, but was pissed off by Chen?Du Wei blinked and said, "Oh, His Majesty's ability to bear it is still not strong enough, and he was pissed to death with just such a trivial matter."

Prince Chen looked at Du Wei dumbfounded.

What Du Wei said was really easy, this kind of thing is not a trivial matter in the eyes of any emperor.His own son, the future emperor of the empire, actually got mixed up with a man. This man was still an important minister of the empire. With his father's stubborn old thinking, he would never accept such a thing.What's more, my father didn't know where he learned that he hadn't been close to a woman in the palace for a long time.

He was told by the attendant he sent to monitor his father that day that his father wanted to see him, but he went without thinking too much—he still gave his father some face.As a result, as soon as they met, his father directly asked him what his relationship with Du Wei was. He could have brought this matter over smoothly, but for some reason, he just said it directly, it was a lover.As a result, my father became very angry, and then they talked more and more, and finally my father died without mentioning it.

Prince Chen only felt that this was a farce, and after ordering people to deal with a series of matters concerning the death of the emperor, he sent people to rush to send the news to the northwest.He didn't directly ask Du Wei to come back, but he knew that after such news was delivered, Du Wei would definitely come back.The result, of course, was not beyond his expectations.

"You brought Louise back together?" Prince Chen said, "Why didn't you bring your subordinate along with you? Don't you want to match him and Louise?"

Du Wei coughed, and with Prince Chen's playful expression on his face, he said thick-skinned, "Your Highness really knows everything... I thought Princess Louise was His Highness's younger sister after all, and the previous emperor kept so many princesses here. , Your Highness can marry anyone if you want to marry, Princess Louise is better to pursue her own happiness."

Prince Chen snorted noncommittally, and asked instead, "You want to abduct my sister, but at least let me know who is my brother-in-law you fancy?"

Du Wei licked his face and came to Prince Chen's side, smiling flatteringly, "He must be a good person, and he is definitely worth entrusting to him for life. It's just that he has such a little trouble, so he can't show up in public for the time being..."

"Tell me your name." Prince Chen didn't intend to go around in circles with Du Wei.

"Hussein."

"..." Prince Chen looked at Du Wei expressionlessly. He was once the number one knight in the mainland, a holy rank powerhouse, and he has always had a good reputation. He really can't find any faults with such a person, but... ...was he in a little trouble with that?The traitor who betrayed the temple is still carrying the killing order from the temple. Is this a small trouble?

Du Wei coughed again, "Your Highness, don't look at me like that."

Prince Chen was so powerless against Du Wei, he finally pressed his forehead and said, "I want me to agree to this matter, let Louise come to me and talk to me, and... if you can't solve your problem in the next three years For the 'little trouble' on this subordinate, don't blame me for marrying Louise to someone else."
