"The First Kindred Novel ( Find the latest chapter!
The setting sun has set, and the crescent moon is rising.
The night in the northern part of the Royal Dragon City was dim and dim, and Ke Lin walked alone on the deserted street by the pale moonlight.
The scenes that happened during the day kept replaying in his mind, and all kinds of doubts lingered in his mind, making Colin unable to sleep peacefully.
Since he couldn't sleep, Colin left the Phoenix Palace and wandered around in the Royal Dragon City.
Of course, it is not accurate to say that he is hanging out, because he still has a purpose.
Boom boom boom.
Colin knocked on the gate of a courtyard, which was engraved with a dove carrying an olive branch, which was the emblem of the White family.
With a squeak, the door opened, and an old man with the appearance of a housekeeper walked out. After seeing the Viscount dress on Colin, he quickly saluted and asked, "Dear Viscount, what can I do for you?"
"This is Colin Angele, is there a Bachelor of Dawn?"
"Yes! Viscount Angele, please come in!"
Bachelor Dawn did not live in the Phoenix Palace with Willa and Colin, but lived in a mansion of the White family in the Dragon City. Although it was not big, it was also a good place to stay.
The main figures of the White family, such as Viscount White and others, are in their own territory, and Bachelor Dawn lives here, so Colin's visit this time is not considered an official visit, so he didn't notify him in advance.
Under the leadership of the butler, Colin followed the stairs to the second floor.
At this time, the attendant who was going to report the letter had already brought Bachelor Dawn over.
"Master Viscount, why don't you tell me in advance why you are coming, I'm also ready to entertain you."
Colin waved his hand and said: "We don't need to pay attention to these red tapes between the two of us, just hope it doesn't disturb you."
"Of course not!"
Bachelor Dawn led Colin into the study, and then asked the waiter to serve two cups of coffee and some dried fruit.
Colin's gaze swept around in the study room. The layout in the room was relatively simple. There was a sheepskin scroll spread out on the writing table, with quill pens, ink, and lacquer seals beside it. It seemed that when Colin came, he said Bachelor of Grace is writing a letter.
What surprised Colin most was the wall full of books, and it looked like there were nearly a thousand books.
In this world without printing, the value of books is comparable to gold, and the number of books in the collection has become a symbol of family heritage.
Noting Colin's surprised gaze, Bachelor Dawn explained with a smile: "These books were copied one by one from the college library when I was studying at Baita College."
"It's amazing!" Colin exclaimed.
In comparison, the study of the Anglia family is too shabby, and there are not many books at all. If it weren’t for occupying Bingyan City later and taking over the library of the Su Duo family, I’m afraid there is not a Bachelor of Dawn in the Red Fort. There are a lot of people in the study.
After taking a sip of coffee, Colin turned to the topic and asked: "You should also know what happened in the Holy Light Cathedral today, right?"
"Of course. This incident has spread throughout the city a long time ago, and I also know that even the residence of Prince Leahy has been taken over by the city defense forces, and all the people inside have been expelled."
"Hehe, so fast?"
"It should be someone who turned the rudder to the wind and fell into trouble."
Colin put down the coffee cup, stretched his body on the sofa, and asked, "What do you think of the murder of the Archon Letom? Do you think Prince Leahy did it?"
Bachelor Dawn smiled and said: "Prince Leahy had a motive for murder, and now the autopsy has found evidence that he can't justify. In this way, it doesn't matter whether he killed or not."
"Indeed." Colin asked, his eyes flashing, "but if he was wronged, who do you think is most likely to be the one who carried out the frame-up?"
"If Prince Leahy was framed..." Bachelor Dawn hesitated slightly, "Then Emperor Reinhardt is the most likely real murderer!"
Colin showed a faint smile, and asked: "Because he makes the most profit?"
"Yes." Bachelor Dawn nodded, but didn't say much.
Colin also realized that perhaps many smart people in the Royal Dragon City have seen through the scene of the Holy Light Cathedral today, but the trap set by the emperor is so ingenious that no one can reveal this puzzle, so only Can watch Prince Leahy become a "murderer".
"Then you think that Emperor Reinhardt regained control of the imperial political situation, is it a good thing or a bad thing for us?"
"It's a good thing." Bachelor Dawn replied without hesitation.
"Why?" Colin was a little confused by the other party's self-confidence.
Although Bachelor Dawn had previously judged that Emperor Reinhardt was indeed more inclined to let Vera succeed the Duke of the North, but it was Prince Leahy who was still there, and Emperor Reinhardt needed to win over the mage to check his Uncle.
But now, Prince Leahy has been discredited by this murder, and the people have resigned from their relatives and are completely far away from the political situation of the imperial capital. In this case, Vera's role is much smaller.
So in Colin's view, the downfall of Prince Leahy was a bad thing for Vera.
This is also the doubt that arose in Colin's mind when Emperor Reinhardt agreed to canonize Willa as Duke of the North on the carriage today.
Bachelor Dawn looked into Colin's eyes and said seriously: "Because His Majesty the Emperor needs a powerful Northern Territory as an ally."
Colin's face changed slightly and he was lost in thought.
Today in the carriage, the emperor and the queen's series of operations, especially the prince Harrison and the princess Judy's application to Colin as a teacher, is indeed very clear.
At that time, Colin was very puzzled. At this moment, when I saw Bachelor Dawn, he also saw this point. He quickly asked: "Why does your Majesty need a powerful Northern Territory as an ally?"
Bachelor Dawn did not answer directly, but instead asked: "My lord, who do you think is the greatest enemy your Majesty has after successfully expelling Prince Leahy?"
Colin thought for a while, and felt that the foreign races outside the empire were still not big enemies, unless the orcs could really establish the third empire.
If you think about it this way, the emperor's greatest enemy must come from within the empire.
Colin wanted to talk about the Senate, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that the Senate could at best cause some constraints to the emperor, and it was not a major enemy.
Moreover, if it is to deal with the Senate, there is no need for such a laborious effort to win over the Northern Territory.
Immediately, Colin had a flash of inspiration and blurted out: "It's the church!"
Bachelor Dawn smiled, nodded and said, "That's right!"
Colin sat upright, and thoughts turned in his mind.
Of course he can understand the reason why Reinhardt the Great is hostile to the church. The battle between imperial power and theocracy has almost started since the establishment of the Glorious Empire.
The San Lorenzo family, and even the entire imperial aristocracy, are both dependent and vigilant towards the church.
They need the church to build a bridge to communicate with the gods in order to be promoted to knights, but at the same time, they are always alert to the excessive expansion of theocratic power.
The reputation and prestige of the church among the people is too lofty. If left alone, the emperor will easily become a decoration, and the major lords will become the marionettes of the church and manage the shepherd dogs of their children.
Of course, due to the special dependence between the two parties, the ultimate goal of the royal family is definitely not to eradicate the glorious church, but to limit the other's power to the church, and not to point fingers at secular government affairs.
Somehow, Colin suddenly recalled that when he was in Silvermoon City, he deliberately planted a seed of resistance to the church in Prince Harrison's heart in order to avenge Queen Midella for instigating his relationship with Queen Aisha.
Perhaps it was that time that Queen Midella recognized that he was an ally that could be wooed.
But then, Colin suddenly realized something. When he looked at Bachelor Dawn again, his eyes suddenly became extremely sharp, and he asked in a deep voice: "The royal family sent you to the north, right?"
Bachelor Dawn's face changed slightly, and after hesitating for a moment, he nodded and said:
"Yes."
Colin's face instantly became gloomy.
