MTL - Male Inferiority and Female Supremacy in the World of Immortal Cultivation-Chapter 657 656. Secret fire
Chapter 657 656. Darkness
The old king couldn't help but sighed: "I have no other choice."
He is not a good father who can educate his children. He was too strict in the past, which made his eldest son develop such a cowardly character.
I wanted to be more tolerant when I was old, but in the end I indulged my two young sons in disguise.
Now that he is getting old, the three sons are useless, which really worries him a lot.
Morgan suddenly glanced at the door of the bedroom, and smiled slightly: "Haven't you thought of passing it on to the two little princes?"
At this time outside the bedroom, the two little princes left and returned.
The two still had something to say to their father, but they accidentally overheard the conversation between the king and the chief court mage, and subconsciously eavesdropped.
Morgan clearly sensed that the two little princes were eavesdropping, but he didn't expose it. Instead, he deliberately asked this question.
Hearing Morgan's words, the old king sneered subconsciously: "Tell me, those two little **** only know how to eat, drink and have fun. How are they like a king? If you hand over the country to them, you will be finished within ten years." .”
Although he likes his two younger sons, the old king knows very well that these two boys are typical dandies with no ability at all.
Although the eldest son has a timid personality, his ability and conduct are relatively good, and his plasticity is also very strong.
For the sake of the country, the old king knew very well who he should hand over the throne to.
Outside the bedroom, the two little princes were so angry that their faces were flushed red, and they endured so much that they did not make a sound.
On the roof, Aya also had a cold look in her eyes, wishing she could go down and execute this soliciting court mage with her own hands.
As a king, what he hates the most is the deception and instigation of his subjects.
The old king didn't notice any abnormalities outside. He just said to Morgan: "After Adams inherits the throne, you must assist him well, and don't let him be deceived by those ministers."
Morgan saluted slightly and said with a smile: "I will follow your will."
When he came out of the bedroom, the two little princes had disappeared.
"What is this person's background?"
Fang Zhou looked at Morgan's leaving back and asked Aya.
"Goss Morgan, grandfather's close friend, who served as the chief court mage for thirty years, disappeared after my father ascended the throne."
Aya recalled the records in the palace secrets.
Each chief court mage must be someone who is absolutely trusted and intimate by the king, because the only purpose of the court mage is to protect the safety of the royal family.
Goss Morgan didn’t have many records in the court secrets. He only said that he disappeared after the coup, but didn’t say whether he was involved in it.
Aya originally thought that this person chose not to help in the coup, but only now did he realize that he was the one who secretly fought the fire.
Fang Zhou suddenly said: "I think your grandfather still has about five years to live."
The old king is an ordinary person, and there is no secret at all under Ark's divine sense. With his current aging level, his lifespan will come to an end in at most five years.
Aya's complexion changed, not because the old king had five years left to live, but because in history, the old king would die hastily within less than half a year after rumors spread in the capital.
This period of history is kept secret in the court secrets, and there is only a short sentence.
The old king still has five years to live, but he will die in half a year. If it is not an accident or sudden illness, it is very likely that he was murdered.
Judging from the current situation, the chance of being murdered is very high.
Aya's face became ugly, and Fang Zhou asked, "Do you want to intervene?"
With Fang Zhou's current strength, it is still possible to steal the sky and replace the sun, just like saving Ming Aoshuang's parents back then.
The difference is that Ming Aoshuang's parents are located in the deep mountains and old forests, and there are not many people around them.
The old king was in the political center, and his every move was watched by someone. Even after death, the corpse would be inspected and processed by a special person. It was very difficult to steal the day.
Aya hesitated for a while, then shook her head: "No, just let it be."
She and the old king are related by blood as grandfather and granddaughter, but the two sides just met for the first time today, and there is no emotion at all.
Not to mention the old king, even his father, King Uther, Aya has no feelings for each other, and the two sides have never known each other until their death.
Besides, the old king only has a few years left to live, so it is not worth taking such a big risk to save him.
Aya is different from the duplicity Ming Aoshuang, if she says no, she really means no.
As a king, Aya's cruelty is not comparable to that of ordinary people.
After a few seconds of silence, she suddenly asked, "Do you think I'm cold-blooded and heartless?"
Fang Zhou looked at her face, opened his arms and hugged her: "It's okay, if I encounter danger in the future, don't think too much, save me quickly."
Hearing Fang Zhou's double-standard speech, Aya couldn't help giving him a blank look.
Although it is said to let it go, King Uther still needs to take care of it, so as not to be backstabbed by two irrational little princes.
Fangzhou sent Beichen to follow King Uther, and he and Aya ran to see what tricks the two little princes would play.
The two ignorant little fellows hid and discussed in hiding, and after thinking about it all night, they finally came up with a plan to poison King Uther.
Although this kind of plan is very vulgar, if King Uther is really poisoned to death, then the old king can only reluctantly choose one of the remaining two pieces of char siew to inherit the throne.
Fang Zhou really doesn’t think these two little things are capable of connecting nobles and mages to stage a coup d’état, and the mastermind behind the scenes may still fall on Morgan.
The chief court mage, he is about to rebel, and the impact will be great.
Ark decided to wait and see what happened, as long as the safety of King Uther was ensured.
The two princes were so stupid that they planned to spend money to bribe the servants around King Uther to poison him the next day.
Probably too stupid, so stupid that even Morgan couldn't stand it, so he took the initiative to show up and stop it.
The two princes thought that the old king had seen through the poisoning scheme, so they sent Morgan to arrest them, and they were so frightened that they knelt down and cried bitterly.
"do not Cry!"
Morgan frowned and said, "I'm not here to catch you."
The second prince wiped away his tears: "Then why are you here?"
Morgan smiled and said: "I'm here to help you, and I don't want Adams to inherit the throne either. He is at odds with me."
The two princes were overjoyed, and the third prince was even more delighted and said: "Then you go and kill him secretly, the father will never guess that it was you who did it."
It’s true that I can’t guess that it’s the recycling I placed, but wouldn’t he guess that it has something to do with you?
Morgan was so angry that his veins were throbbing, he kept taking deep breaths, and convinced himself in his heart that it was because these two idiots were stupid enough that he could achieve his goal.
"Poisoning is too risky, you can change to a safer way."
The two princes still looked blank, Morgan could only say: "You follow me."
Thanks for the rewards of "Civils are short, poor, ugly", "The bright moon goes to the sky", "Taste the turtle operation", (*^▽^*)
