Mysterious Catastrophe - Chapter 54

[Chapter 54 The Incident]

Sotosburg.

Colin walked into the study and saw Count Theodore with a gloomy face.

“Cough cough…”

He stared at the parchment roll in his hand, two abnormal red lumps appeared on his face, and began to cough violently.

“Colin…what’s the matter?”

“Tell me, what’s your relationship with the Wolf Thieves?”

Theodore roared and threw an investigative report in Colin’s face.

A red mark appeared on Colin’s face immediately, but he didn’t care, and spread his hands: “Father, you have already checked this step, do you still need my answer?”

“That batch of weapons was really provided by you? Aaron is your brother! The blood of your blood!”

Theodore’s chest rose and fell sharply.

“Haha… Then have you ever thought about me? I am your heir… But I don’t know when it will start, you appreciate him more than me!”

Colin also roared, and a certain emotion in his heart was vented.

“you……”

Theodore’s fingers trembled.

He did appreciate Aaron more and more recently, but he didn’t want to abolish Colin and make Aaron his heir.

Otherwise, it would not have been Colin who married Silvi at the beginning.

However, in the face of the second son who had never been close before, and then sealed it early, there is indeed some optimism and guilt.

After all… distance produces beauty.

At the same time, the rumor of letting Aaron be Char’s godfather is just to sharpen Ke Lin and make him more motivated.

Good iron can only be used if it is constantly polished!

Theodore did not know that some people are not really famous swords. Once the polishing exceeds the limit, it may cause the string called reason in the mind to break! produce unpredictable consequences.

“Father, if you really love me, you shouldn’t even check it. Just suppressing this matter is the attitude to keep the heir…”

Colin straightened his waist and said coldly.

Theodore’s expression froze.

Indeed, from the ruler’s point of view, doing things does not look at good and evil, but only on interests.

For example, when a confidant commits a crime and is taken down, it is often not because of those on the surface, but because of the root of the position.

And if the confidant is wronged, even if the grievance is later washed away, he may not dare to continue to be by his side, because there was no resentment before, and there must be resentment at this time!

Even more so when dealing with heirs, either firmly trust him or kill him directly, there is no second option!

Theodore didn’t think about it so much, but instinctively felt that this matter was indeed his own fault.

In other words, in the depths of his heart that he didn’t realize, his handling of the heir was indeed a little shaken.

After all… Compared with Aaron, Colin is really worse.

It would be great if the second generation heir was Aaron and the third generation was Char…

Theodore pursed his lips, his back seemed to be hunched a lot, and he coughed violently for a while: “This incident has been witnessed by outsiders, and I haven’t figured out what to do with it… You get out of here first!”

Instead, Colin became extremely calm, bowed again, and walked out of the study door.

Mrs. Sonia walked towards her with a smile on her face, impeccable etiquette, but there seemed to be some kind of expectation in her eyes…

…

When Colin returned to the room, he saw the effort of covering his face with a hood.

“How are things?”

Fei Li asked with a smile.

“My father has already planned to deal with me…”

Colin’s face darkened: “It can’t be delayed any longer, we must act now!”

“Are there going to be a coup?” Fei Li looked forward to it: “I can help in this regard…”

“coup?”

Colin seemed to have seen a lunatic: “The key figures in the Castle Guard, Turner Shaurion and Alfred, are both my father’s confidants, and neither of us can win over. How many people are you going to call to storm the castle? Come down, the whole green forest also knows that I am against it, all the lords will crusade me, and then push my brother to the throne of the earl!”

“Then what are you going to do?” Fei Li had a good temper and asked with a smile.

“I absolutely can’t kill my father, whether it’s from the perspective of family affection or interests… So the best way is to make him sicker and not be able to act as a director, and then let me exercise the power of the lord on my behalf!”

Colin said: “I need a potion that can make people faint and look like a seriously ill one…”

“Although it is difficult, there is indeed such a treasure in the palace, called ‘The Dream of Konjac’, which can just meet your requirements. I have a copy in my hand.”

Fei Li smiled.

Colin glanced at Fei Li timidly, and a smile appeared on his face: “Very good… I have already bought the bachelor, and I can add some ingredients to the soup, um… Sonia is also restless, and just took this opportunity to bring her together. under house arrest.”

Nodding laboriously, he felt that this Colin was not always useless.

After so many years of succession, he can always win over some people.

This is the capital after the coup!

With these, it is enough to control the situation of Sotos Castle.

Then, at the right time, he will kill the Earl of Green Forest and leak the truth of the matter, causing the Green Forest to fall apart!

…

“Vison…rabbit…mutton…”

the next day.

Ginny was in the garden, pondering the serious question of what to eat in the evening.

Sean was beside her, chattering: “I heard from my mother that Colin is dead this time… Aaron has split up a long time ago, and I will be Lord Earl from now on.”

Ginny rolled her eyes and ignored him.

After all, you can’t expect everyone to be smart, and everyone is a perceptive animal who will always do some strange things.

Not to mention, this older brother is still what Aaron calls a ‘bear boy’.

Tread!

At this moment, she saw a team of guards in cotton armor suddenly pouring out from various corridors, guarding each intersection.

“Something happened.” Ginny’s face was serious.

Whoa!

A group of guards poured in, and the leader turned out to be Colin!

“Sean, Ginny…” Colin said with a blank expression: “My father is seriously ill and fainted and cannot handle affairs. I am currently acting as Earl of Green Forest. You all go back and stay with your mother.”

With a wave, two guards stepped forward and grabbed Sean’s arm.

“What are you doing? I am the son of the count!”

Sean struggled violently and kept shouting.

Colin took a step forward and kicked directly, kicking Sean into the air, hitting the flower bed, screaming again and again.

“Haha, I’ve wanted to do this for a long time, it’s really enjoyable!”

Colin’s mouth curled into a smile, and he looked at Ginny again.

I saw this quirky sister, who was usually pale, with her head lowered, like a frightened quail.

“Humph… After all, it’s just a child, take it all away! Locked up with Sonia, you’re not allowed to come out without my order!”

Colin quickly dealt with it, walking in the castle hall, followed by Bachelor and Feili, with a happy smile on his face: “Where is Aaron? Father is seriously ill, send him a message immediately and ask him to come to visit… And those lords, let them come too!”

In his heart, he has decided to take this opportunity to get rid of all the guys who are in the way!
