Law of the Devil

"My...my wife's name is..." Groom seemed to be infected by Du Wei's peaceful attitude, or he finally relaxed a little, and began to talk about his family. He was a tailor, and his wife was actually a court lady—but she was dismissed from the palace when she got old.

Groom himself works as a court tailor, and his income is not bad, so he bought a piece of land in his hometown. Now his wife and daughters live peacefully in their hometown... Although it is not rich, at least they have no worries about food and clothing.

Du Wei seemed to be very interested in listening, and kept drawing on Groom's face, looking for the most suitable angle. At the same time, he didn't forget to ask something like "Oh, and What? Oh, is that so?" Such words.

Finally, when everything was finished, Du Wei let go of the guy's face, stepped back two steps, looked carefully, and was quite satisfied with his results. The peace on his face quickly faded away.

His expression is serious!

Seeing the adult's suddenly gloomy face, Groom's heart sank suddenly.

"Groom..." Du Wei stared closely at the other party's eyes: "I know you are not an idiot, you are a smart person. Then I will not deceive you. What will be the result of this matter?" , I think since you have been in the palace for so long, you can guess some of it."

Groom was stunned for a while, then began to cry, sobbing with a sob: "I don't want to die, my lord, I can't die, I still have a wife and a daughter... Poor Lianna is still waiting for me to go back, And my little Fenna, I still want to watch her grow up and get married... Wuwuwuwu, my lord, please save my life."

The expression on Du Wei's face did not change at all. But my heart is sighing.

Gently, one of his hands landed on Groom's shoulder: "Groom, I don't want to lie to you... because this time there is no doubt that you will die, after this is over, I miss you You should understand. This kind of thing will not leave you alive."

Groom's body felt like an electric shock, even though he was still panicking. He should have thought of it long ago, but when Du Wei said the answer himself, the man's body softened and he almost collapsed on the ground.

He is no warrior. Not a big shot either. God is sorry, he is just an ordinary person, a tailor, and a little cowardly. Some timid, some vulgar little tailors.

"I sympathize with you, but I can't change your fate." Du Wei patted him on the shoulder: "But, although your fate is already doomed, you still have to finish this matter well...Excellent finish it, make it beautiful!"

"Why, why..." Groom's eyes suddenly became desperate: "Anyway, I'm already dead!"

"For your wife and daughter." Du Wei's words. Let him be quiet: "If this matter, you don't do your best to do it well. If you deliberately ruin the big thing, then Groom, you should know better than me what will happen if you anger the regent. And the same. If you do this well, even if you die in the end... I guarantee that your wife and daughter will also get a generous reward, enough to allow them to live a prosperous and peaceful life! You The daughters of the land will get married in the future, as well as their lives, and their future..."

When Du Wei said this, he sighed again, pondered his words, and continued slowly: "Maybe it's a bit cruel for me to say that, it's okay, you might as well consider this matter from another angle: you have done this job brilliantly. After this incident, for your wife and daughter, use your life to exchange for a life guarantee for them!"

Otherwise, Groom's body wouldn't tremble.

The man was moved by Du Wei's last words!

After a long period of silence, even the sky outside the main hall was completely dark. Groom, as if he had been thinking blankly for a lifetime, finally raised his head.

There was finally a manly look in his eyes.

"Can I get your guarantee, my lord?" His voice was a little hoarse.

"Yes, you have my guarantee."

"My wife can live without worrying about food and clothing until old age." Groom wept silently.

"Yes, she will." Du Wei's voice was very serious: "She will get a farm and have enough property to live on."

"And my daughter... two daughters, Fenna and little Yilian, oh, Goddess, Fenner is already fourteen years old, she will be an adult next year, and she is going to get married...and... Xiaoyi Lian, she is only nine years old."

"As a nobleman, I assure you that your two daughters will have a happy life. Fenner's future husband will be a good man with a decent status and a job! Your youngest daughter is nine years old Elaine will also get a good education, and live a happy life without worrying about food and clothing! And... I will send people to move your wife and daughter to Luolin Plain, where they will be taken care of."

Groom clenched his fists hard, as if he was desperately trying to gather courage. Despite Du Wei's promise, the fear of death is not something that can be overcome.

Fortunately, after a while, Groom finally stood up. Although his fists were trembling and his face was still pale, fortunately, he finally stood up.

Afterwards, the man vigorously wiped away the tears and snot from his face, and then reported all the information such as his home address in his hometown, the full names of his wife and daughter.

Although there is no need for him to tell the information, Du Wei can ask anyone as long as he sends someone down to ask. But at this moment, in order to appease the poor man, Du Wei recited these materials in a serious manner in front of him.

Then, as if reassured, Groom was relieved at last.

His spirit seemed to be much lighter.

"Have a good rest. Don't wash your face tonight. Don't wipe off what I painted on your face. It will be useful tomorrow." Du Wei helped the man sit back on the bed with his own hands, and then said softly: "I just now The bottle of potion I gave you will make you sleep comfortably, but when you wake up tomorrow morning, your throat will be very sore, and you need to be patient. Because you

...Your speaking voice is very different from Your Majesty's. I can only use medicine to use your speaking voice. "

Just as Du Wei was about to leave, Groom suddenly grabbed Du Wei's sleeve: "My lord, I hope to complete this task well.".

Du Wei smiled. He has grasped the mentality of this man: since he is doomed to die, he should finish it well, so that he can hope to get a generous guarantee for his loved ones.

"Trust me. Like you, I hope to complete it smoothly, and... I am very good at helping people pretend..." Du Wei said this almost subconsciously, but after he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a thump in his heart!

In an instant, Du Wei's face changed, but he hid it well. Not revealed in Groom's presence.

He turned and left the palace. When he walked out of the steps, his heart echoed the words that Prince Chen said a while ago before he left here:

"According to what I know, you should be a very good disguise master. You have the superb ability to disguise a person."

Why did he say such things? ! What did he mean by that? !

A thought flashed through Du Wei's mind like lightning. Obviously, there is only one answer: Prince Chen knows about Hussein! !

He knew Hussein's disguised appearance and identity, and the things he had hidden under his hands! !

How did he know? !

Since Prince Chen even knows this secret. So how much else does he know?

Does he know what he did to the "future princess"? I'm afraid no husband would allow another man to do that to his fiancée!

Did he know that he used Princess Louise to play a "speed dating" game? I'm afraid any brother would not tolerate his sister being molested like this! !

Prince Chen... how many secrets does he know about himself? !

\u0026#

Taking a deep breath, Du Wei looked at the sky and the night. I kept warning myself: Calm down! calm!

He quickly sorted out his thoughts: If Prince Chen knew that Hussein was by his side, when did he know? He had never talked about it before. It suddenly came up today, so is it because he only recently found out about this secret?

recent……

Du Wei's eyes lit up.

perhaps. Prince Chen didn't get the source of the news from himself, and it wasn't that there were traitors and Prince Chen's hidden clues within his family. Most likely, the news leaked from inside the temple.

Probably.

Church and royalty have been fighting for almost a millennium. Neither side ever really beat the other. During the long struggle that lasted for a thousand years. You have me. I have you in me. It's not surprising. Each other put a few infernal affairs in each other's camp. Nor is it surprising.

Well, that must be the case. Prince Chen must have known the secret that he took Hussein in recently! !

After Du Wei made this determination in his heart, he opened the palace.

Because of this special incident, Du Wei did not return to live in the Tulip Duke's Mansion in the imperial capital, but directly lived in the palace that night.

The 500 iron cavalry he brought were temporarily stationed with the Imperial Forest Army.

That night, Du Wei didn't close his eyes, thinking hard about the solution to this matter.

Or... simply declare that little Prince Charlie will inherit the throne! As for what other people say, don't care! Anyway, the power is in Chen's hands, the position of the emperor, he does not sit himself, but let his son sit, it is also a matter of the royal family - as for criticism, let others criticize!

And the church will definitely object... of course! This is tantamount to Prince Chen thoroughly messing up the church.

But Paul XVI knew that sinners would invade in the near future. Does he dare to publicly turn against the royal family at such a time? Does he have the guts? Regardless of the overall situation?

He didn't even dare to measure it! Maybe I can only knock down my front teeth and swallow it in my stomach.

Hmm...but...

Du Wei thought about it again, at this moment, he dared to send people to the northwest to plot against him, which in itself was already a kind of "very disregarding the overall situation" behavior.

You can't pin your hopes on the Pope's character!

Thinking of the second half of the night, Du Wei couldn't help feeling a little annoyed: Go to the police station! It is also his royal family's problem to be troubled! Why should I worry about it! Scandal is scandal! That scandal also fell on the head of the royal family! If he wanted to turn against the church, he, Prince Chen, would take the lead! Lao Tzu is still my Tulip Grand Duke in the Northwest!

Although he thought about it angrily for a while, Du Wei finally knew about this matter, and it was impossible for Prince Chen to let himself relax. After all, he is his most trusted minister. For an emperor, at this time, the direct line is used to sell their lives!

When it was just dawn, Du Wei got up and walked out of his room.

Outside the residence where he was arranged, there had been waiters from the palace waiting all night long. Seeing the Grand Duke Tulip leave the room, several waiters were panicked immediately. The leader hurried up to greet him: "My lord, is it because living here is uncomfortable? Or is it that these clumsy guys are not attentive?"

Du Wei smiled: "If you can't even live in the imperial palace, I'm afraid there is no comfortable place in this world." He looked at the frightened head of the court servant and said with a smile: "I'm used to living in the bitter cold place in the northwest. I can't fall asleep because of the gentleness here."

The leader of the palace servants quickly put on a smiling face and patted the horse: "Yes! Your Excellency is defending the border for the country, so naturally you don't want these enjoyments. But only you, Your Excellency, can be favored by the Regent, and you are qualified to be in this palace." Staying here overnight, changing someone else, how can I be so favored."

Du Wei smiled slightly, then took out a few gold coins from his pocket and threw them over. He said lightly, "Where are those people I brought yesterday? Are they all in the Imperial Forest Army's garrison? You send someone to call my chief guard here." , I have a private matter for him to handle."
