Chapter 553： Blue Cold Castle's Murder Emerges

"Your Excellency, let's not talk about joining the faction."

smiled slightly, Lei Xiao looked at the Marquis Rose in front of him with great interest, and asked, "What I'm curious about is, how exactly did you figure out that I want to help Her Royal Highness to claim the throne?"

"In the beginning, I didn't even think about this layer."

nodded to Lei Xiao, while the Marquis Rose picked up the red rose on the table again.

replied: "Originally, based on what you know about Her Royal Highness, there is nothing worth noting about helping the fortress defenders and repelling incoming enemies."

"After all, as far as I know, Her Royal Highness has always had a strong sense of responsibility since she was a child, especially towards ordinary people, and this is precisely what other princes do not have."

At this time, Marquis Rose first glanced at Ariel, and then continued: "However, knowing the purpose of everyone here, combined with yesterday's frontier battlefield, there is a new speculation."

"Yesterday's frontier battle, you all have a hidden purpose, and that is to further enhance the prestige of Princess Ariel!"

Taking a deep breath, the Marquis Rose concluded: "From this, combined with the fact that you are trying to win over you, I have come to a bold conclusion, that is, Your Excellency Keqing is ready to help Her Royal Highness the princess to claim the throne and join the current power. In the race!"

"So that's the case. Based on the news of the frontier battlefield obtained yesterday, combined with our visit today, did you finally infer this conclusion?"

Hearing this, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.

"That's right, the reason why Your Excellency Keqing asked in such a detailed manner was because he was worried that the other three princes would detect him and then involve himself, Her Royal Highness the Princess and Kong Qingzhen in the vortex of power, right?"

Having said this, Marquis Rose paused for a while, then changed his previous words, and continued: "No, since Your Excellency Keqing is going to join this power competition, he has already thought of this, so what Your Excellency is really worried about , it's a question of when the war will begin!"

"Your Excellency the City Lord's inference is quite reasonable."

raised his eyebrows noncommittally, and Lei Xiao continued: "Then do you think that now the three princes will be like you and have noticed this?"

"Guessing, at least for the next few days, it's unlikely."

shook the red rose in his hand gently, and the Marquis of Rose responded: "Forgive me, as long as the nobles who have some knowledge of the royal family know that, compared with the other three princes, Her Royal Highness's power is almost negligible."

"For the three princes, Her Royal Highness, who also has the right to inherit the throne, although it is an obstacle to the peak of power, it will have to be eliminated sooner or later, but it is not the most important thing at the moment. Otherwise, Her Royal Highness will not be able to leave the king smoothly All."

nodded to Lei Xiao, and Marquis Rose said again: "So, on the premise that the other party obviously despised Her Royal Highness, I am afraid that the arrogant princes will not take Her Royal Highness in the eyes for a while."

"I see."

Hearing this, Lei Xiao nodded slightly, signaling the other party to continue.

"However, Your Excellency Keqing must have expected it. Even if the three princes do not know that you are trying to expand the sphere of influence, the presence of a fifth-order powerhouse on the battlefield is enough to arouse the three princes' high vigilance."

I saw the Marquis of Rose lightly **** the orchid, while fiddling with the roses in his hand.

He continued: "Therefore, the other party will send a large number of secret agents to go to Kongqing Town to investigate, and when the other party summarizes the information and confirms that there really is a fifth-order powerhouse, then, whether you are trying to claim the throne or not, I'm afraid a war is inevitable."

After a pause, Marquis Rose added: "However, the move by Your Excellency Ke Qing in the frontier battlefield is indeed very mysterious. It not only perfectly solved the crisis at the frontier, but also greatly increased the prestige of Her Royal Highness."

Continuing to play with the roses in his hand, the Marquis of Rose continued: "It is conceivable that in the current extremely chaotic situation, if the Holy Night Kingdom breaks the mountain fortress, it will drive straight into my Cold Flame territory.

Then, the main battle faction of the Holy Night Kingdom, which has gained the sweetness, will surely persuade the new Holy Night King to send an additional army of hundreds of thousands or even hundreds of thousands. It's more difficult to control. "

"After all, the opponents of the Cold Flame Kingdom are not only the Holy Night Kingdom, including the fortress in the extreme north and the rainforest fortress in the extreme south, which are guarded by Her Royal Highness the Third Princess.

Facing Lei Xiao with a smile, Marquis Rose said: "If it develops to such an irreversible point, your opponents will not only be in the cold flames, but will need to be faced at the same time. There are several powerful countries such as the Holy Night Kingdom, which is quite cold."

Taking a deep breath, Marquis Rose stood up from his seat, bowed to Lei Xiao and Ariel with chest support respectively, and said solemnly: "I have to admit that it is precisely with the actions of His Excellency Keqing and the Princess that this Only then did Leng Yan avoid a shocking catastrophe caused by the fire of war!"

At this moment, I could clearly feel that the Marquis Rose in front of him, whether in his form, demeanor, or tone, no longer had the enchanting and yin-yang aura just now, but instead had a little more respect.

On the other side, hearing this, all the subordinates couldn't help but cast a respectful look at Lei Xiao.

"No big deal, thanks to Her Royal Highness."

raised his eyebrows slightly, Lei Xiao said with a smile.

This chapter is not over, please click to continue reading! Page 1 of 3 "All in all, from the point of view below, everything is as expected by Your Excellency Ke Qing. When the three princes have not fully understood the context of the matter, it is the best time for Her Royal Highness to develop! "

Taking a deep breath again, Marquis Rose nodded towards Lei Xiao.

"Okay, now that things are completely clear, let's go back to the topic just now."

Continuing to maintain a gentle smile, Lei Xiao turned and said: "Your Excellency, the city lord, the reason why you were able to guess at the first time, the purpose of our coming here is because before this, the messengers of the three princes have already Have you come?"

"This... How did Your Excellency Keqing know?"

Hearing the sound, a look of surprise appeared on Marquis Rose's rough and square face, and he blurted out his debut.

"It's not important, what's important is that, as far as I know, the Lord of the City and the messengers of the three princes seem to have a very unpleasant quarrel."

nodded slightly, Lei Xiao's face was still filled with a sullen smile, as if he had seen through everything about Marquis Rose.

"It's true, Your Excellency Keqing."

Being stared at by Lei Xiao's seemingly peaceful gaze, Marquis Rose simply did not hide it.

Then he snorted enchantingly, and said in a disdainful tone: "Those guys from the capital all look arrogant, and if they don't speculate in three words, they are the same threats. In the end, it's just a dog beside its master."

After a pause, Marquis Rose said sternly: "Your Excellency Keqing, although you are completely different from those guys, the answer below will still not change, Lan Lengbao is only a corner of the eastern region, and only loyal to the current Leng Yan. King, will not be involved in any power struggle."

"Understood."

Hearing this, Lei Xiao didn't say anything else, but changed the conversation again, seemingly inadvertently, and asked: "Your Excellency City Lord, can you invite us to take a look at the beasts you raise?"

"Warcraft?"

On the other side, the Marquis Rose responded with a puzzled expression, "Your Excellency Keqing, where did you say this?

Lan Lengbao is a brewing town. There are extremely strict requirements for the brewing process. In the city, let alone monsters, even ordinary animals are not allowed to be raised at will. "

"So it is, I just asked casually."

Staring at the doubtful eyes on Marquis Rose's rough face, Lei Xiao nodded slightly.

Needless to say, the reason why Lei Xiao asked this was naturally to determine whether the mysterious beast was raised by the other party.

Judging from the confused expression on the other side, the other side obviously didn't know anything about it.

"Since there are mysterious monsters in the city, even Marquis Rose is not aware of them, and the city's control over animals is extremely strict, then, where did this mysterious monster come from? Where is it now?"

At this moment, a look of doubt appeared on Lei Xiao's face.

"Speaking of which, it is not difficult to see from the current situation that this Marquis Rose is still neutral, and he is quite witty and a rare talent. Therefore, we must find a way to subdue him."

nodded thoughtfully, and Lei Xiao continued to ponder: "However, judging from his resolute attitude, if he uses force to persecute him, I am afraid it will have little effect.

And if the other party insists on disobedience, with the other party's rather witty mind, coupled with Lan Lengbao's good financial resources, if its position changes, it will cause a lot of trouble to itself in the future, and this risk cannot be taken. "

Realizing this, a cold light flashed in Lei Xiao's dark eyes involuntarily, and he thought to himself: "It seems that if there is really no way, as Ju Bai said, this person is absolutely impossible. If you stay, you must avoid future troubles.”

Just thinking of this, Lei Xiao was taken aback for a moment, and he suddenly showed a bright look.

and then suddenly realized in his heart: "I see! Since I have the idea of ​​​​killing, then, among the three princes' messengers, there must be some people who have the same idea and want to get rid of the Marquis Rose.

So, is the mysterious and dangerous monster in Bai Wei's mouth the murderous murder secretly laid out by a certain wave of messengers? "

Thinking about this, Lei Xiao regained his energy and said to the enchanting big man in front of him: "Your Excellency City Lord, I have a question.

"Your Excellency Ke Qing is serious. As long as you don't mention the matter of courtship, even if it is a hundred questions, you will know everything."

Holding the orchid finger and sniffing the red rose in his hand, the Marquis of Rose nodded without hesitation.

"As the Lord of the City Lord knows, at present, the power struggle centered on the Lengyan King Capital has already radiated to the whole of Lengyan, and naturally it also includes the eastern area of ​​Lengyan."

With a slight smile, Lei Xiao immediately said: "For example, if Your Excellency is the leader of a power struggle, once the olive branch thrown by him is broken by a guy who doesn't know how to lift him up, in order to ensure that this unsightly guy, You also won't accept olive branches from other opponents, what will you do?"

"This…"

Hearing this, Marquis Rose immediately reacted, and a warning look appeared on his rough face.

and then said solemnly: "Your Excellency Keqing, are you threatening the next? Although the power is only four tiers, but also has a life-saving trump card, it will not let you easily succeed!"

"Your Excellency the city lord, with your cleverness, do you think if I want to do something

This chapter is not over, please click to continue reading! If it's page 2/3, will it tell you this in advance? "

I saw that Lei Xiao continued to keep a smile, and responded in a daze.

"Your Excellency Keqing, do you mean... that one of the three waves of messengers before has been secretly planning to get rid of the subordinates?"

Hearing the sound, Marquis Rose's rough face suddenly showed a bright look.

In addition to being surprised, I saw that he threw the red rose in his hand onto the table and stood up directly from the seat, a look of sudden realization.

"Isn't there such a possibility?"

also stood up from his seat, Lei Xiao responded while flexing his muscles.

"Your Excellency Keqing, is this all just your guesswork?"

After pondering for a while, Marquis Rose continued: "Furthermore, I, Lan Leng Castle, are heavily guarded. Just inside and outside this castle, there are five well-trained second-order guard squadrons guarding the guards. The other party has this idea. It will never be easy.”

Having said that, the Marquis Rose picked up the orchid finger, UU Reading picked up the red rose on the table again, looked at the nose and smelled it, and said, "Your Excellency Keqing, if you want to use this method, If you are compelled to submit, I am afraid you will be a little self-conscious..."

However, the words of Marquis Rose are not finished yet.

The entire hall where everyone was, suddenly trembled without warning.

For a time, the spacious and luxurious living room, the vacant tables and chairs all shifted a lot, making a "ping, bang, bang" sound.

The tremor lasted for about five or six seconds, and then calmed down again.

Immediately afterwards, Bai Wei, who was on the side, moved her nose on her fair cheeks, and at the same time with a dignified expression, she immediately came to Lei Xiao's side, bowed and said, "Sir, the strange and dangerous smell of demon beasts just now is again. It appeared suddenly!"

"Dangerous monster smell?"

Hearing Bai Wei's description, Marquis Rose's square face showed a touch of nervousness again, and asked Lei Xiao, "Your Excellency Keqing, what is going on?"

"It seems that I am not being smart."

On the other side, Lei Xiaodan smiled and said immediately: "Your Excellency City Lord, if it is not what I expected, you are really in trouble."
