Chapter 483: Chaos (Part 1)

Night falls.

The banquet hall of Bailubao was illuminated like daylight by hundreds of candles.

The mighty and majestic armored guards stood motionless around the hall with their spears, and the slim and beautiful young maid brought plates of delicacies onto the long dining table with light steps.

The well-dressed duchess stood at the entrance of the banquet hall, welcoming the guests who came to the banquet with an impeccable smile on her face.

Although the Duke of St. Pros had just died, it was a bit wrong for the White Dew Castle to feast like this, but who made the Duchess insist on it?

What's more, she also has a suitable excuse-to welcome Prince Harrison and Princess Judy to Fort Bleu.

As for the teachers of these two royal guests who just killed the Duke of Saint-Pros, well, just pretend it didn't happen.

Of course, many smart people know that the death of the Duke of Saint-Pros may be a happy event for the Duchess——

In this way, she can truly become the hostess of Bailubao, and even the entire East Territory!

In the banquet hall, the long-sleeved dancing duchess is already the focus of everyone, and aristocrats from the East have come forward one after another, expressing allegiance to her openly or secretly.

The Duchess dealt with gracefully and skillfully, but secretly, her mind had been paying attention to the entrance of the hall.

Seeing that the important people she was waiting for have not appeared, the Duchess got rid of the overly enthusiastic crowd, and found the butler and asked:

"Where are your highnesses? And Earl Anglia, why haven't they arrived yet?"

"I'll go see it myself."

Before the steward could take a few steps, he saw Warren Knight, the captain of the Bailubao guards, walking over.

Seeing that Knight Valen's face was solemn, the princess frowned slightly, and asked quickly: "Knight Valen, what's the matter?"

The Warren Knight walked to the Duchess and whispered:

"Madam, Count Angele was assassinated in his room just now!"

The Duchess took a breath, and tried not to let herself lose her mind, but before she could ask her about the situation, she heard a voice yelling from her side:

"What? Count Angele was assassinated and killed?"

In fact, Knight Valen deliberately lowered his voice before. It stands to reason that only the Duchess could hear him, but he did not expect that he would be heard by the Count Nicol, who happened to pass by, and called out loudly.

This is all right, the whole banquet seems to have pressed the mute button, and suddenly there is no sound.

The Duchess gave Count Nicole a fierce look, but she couldn't tell whether the other party's exclaim was intentional or unintentional, and she couldn't bother to pursue it at this time.

She immediately took a step forward and whispered in the ear of Knight Warren:

"First, kill all the hundred guards who followed Colin Angele into the city!

Second, all city gates are sealed off, and no entry is allowed!

Third, gather the army, get ready, the blood cavalry...I'm afraid I'm going crazy..."

Hearing the last sentence, Knight Valen couldn't help but shudder, as if he had foreseen some terrible scene, but he also knew that the situation was urgent and could not tolerate random thoughts, so he nodded and said yes, and walked away.

At this time, all the guests in the banquet hall reacted and suddenly clamored:

"Duchess, has Count Angele really been killed?"

"Duchess, who on earth assassinated Count Angele?"

"Duchess, will Bailu City fall into the flames of war again?"

……

One question after another was shot like a sharp arrow, but the Duchess smiled lightly, stretched out her hand and pressed down, and said calmly:

" Dear guests, I’m sorry to disturb everyone’s interest.

But please rest assured, no matter what accidents occur, the Saint-Pros family has the ability to deal with them.

Now, I would like to invite everyone to enjoy the food here. Let me know the specific situation, and then I will explain to you in detail. "

After saying this, the duchess ignored the inquiries of the people in the hall, and walked out in a stride.

went out, the smile on the princess's face instantly faded, and her expression changed from calm to anxious.

Count Angele is dead!

Although she was eager for this terrifying northern earl to die, he must not die in Bailu Castle!

Because once Earl Anglia died here, no matter how the St. Pros family explained it, people throughout the empire would think that they assassinated Earl Anglia.

Not to mention that in the case of Emperor Reinhardt’s successful arrival in Bailu City, Earl Anglia was stabbed to death in Bailu City as a guest. How exactly would the royal family punish the Saint-Pros family? The Duchess felt a headache after receiving the news.

If the young Duke of the North insists on desperately trying to avenge his husband, then the East will definitely face an extremely terrible crisis.

And now that the orcs are about to invade, in order to calm the anger in the north, the royal family and the church are very likely to join forces to put pressure on the east——

In this case, there must be enough people to be responsible for the death of Count Angele!

The Duchess found desperately that this person was most likely herself.

Even if she did not plan the assassination of Earl Anglia at all, for the sake of the overall situation, she, the Archbishop of the East and the Duchess of St. Pros, is very likely to be ruthlessly abandoned and used to appease the North.

Thinking of this, the Duchess immediately realized that this is a trap!

A trap carefully designed for yourself!

The person who designed this trap was obviously well aware of the current situation in the East, and immediately found the Achilles heel of the current order. With just a single blow, the stable situation that the Duchess worked hard to create was in danger of disintegrating.

The duchess only felt a chill in her heart but she quickly took a few deep breaths and forced herself to calm down.

The enemy has already made a move, and the Duchess knows that she has no choice but to accept the move.

Now, what she wants to figure out most is who is planning all this behind the scenes.

And what will be the next move?

In contemplation, the Duchess has come to Colin's room.

The room has been surrounded by guards from the Saint-Pros family, and even Prince Harrison and Princess Judy have been stopped outside.

"Duchess, why don't you let us in? What happened to the teacher?"

"Your Majesty, please forgive the rudeness of these guards. However, the situation inside is a bit complicated. After I check it out, I will explain it to you."

After finishing speaking, the Duchess strode in without waiting for Prince Harrison and Princess Judy to reply.

Then, she saw Colin lying in a pool of blood.

Torn chest, disappearing heart, blood all over the floor...

The Duchess knew that this person was completely hopeless without going up to check.
