At the gate of Condal City's castle, the scene was spectacular. Four strong guards were pressing down on King Farim's body, and a few people were stuffing paper into his mouth. Of course, Farim resisted with all his might, but even so, two or three pieces of paper were stuffed into his mouth.
Farim was helpless at this time. The guards who usually bowed and bowed to him were now pressing him to death. The people who didn't come up were also looking at him coldly, as if telling him to eat quickly. Farim felt the coldness of human nature. At this time, no one was willing to help him.
No, in fact, there was someone else. Someone rushed out, but it wasn't one of Farim's guards. It was someone brought by Li Huailin. Of course, it was Prince Wilco. Although Wilco had agreed to keep his identity a secret before exposing the queen, he couldn't help but reveal his father's identity after seeing his father in such a state.
"Duke, please let my father go." Wilco quickly ran to Li Huailin and knelt down.
Wilco's action shocked everyone present. After taking a closer look, they realized that this person looked more and more like a little prince. Farim also slowed down a little, then looked at the person who spoke up for him, "Wilco?"
"Your Highness?" Everyone was surprised. Prince Wilco had been missing for a year, and now he suddenly appeared, together with the Nasser Empire's envoy. What was going on?
"That won't do. I'm a very fair person. I always say things as they are. Think about it yourself. From my point of view, should I deal with this situation this way? Or should I just bring troops to massacre the city? You can choose one," Li Huailin said with a wave of his hand.
"No … you can't blame my father. He was bewitched by that witch …" Wilco immediately said.
"Alright, alright, don't blame the woman." Li Huailin said, "The ruler is indeed muddleheaded. He issued a warrant for arrest without rhyme or reason. He doesn't take national affairs seriously at all. It's true that your stepmother is looking for trouble, but this guy is muddleheaded enough. Farim, can you figure out the problem of national affairs and family affairs? You can pamper a woman in the family, you can do whatever you want, but when it comes to national affairs, you can also let her say whatever she wants. How are you a king? Let me ask you right now, do you think you brought this upon yourself? He did a lot of wrong things and then pushed the blame to his own woman, saying that it was all her fault. Do you think it's justifiable? "
"…" This really left Farim speechless. He couldn't find any way to refute.
"I'm already very magnanimous. You see, I'm not asking you to die, I'm just asking you to eat this stack of paper," Li Huailin said. "Between the death of the entire country and eating this stack of paper, which would you choose?"
"I … I'll eat …" Farim suddenly understood, then said to the guards next to him, "Let go of me, I'll eat it myself. I … I'm indeed responsible. I brought this upon myself, so if eating this can save this country, I'm willing. "
"Your Royal Highness …" The guards really let go. They looked at Farim, feeling a little ashamed and touched.
"Father, I'll eat with you …" Wilco immediately said.
"No … let me do it," Farim said, then picked up a piece of paper and began to eat.
"Yes, you still have work to do here." Li Huailin also said, "Come, take the paper and follow me. Now we still have to deal with the queen, right? Let's go."
Li Huailin then walked directly into the castle, and the others immediately followed behind him. Mousa took a step forward, walked to Li Huailin's side, and asked, "Your Excellency, what's going on? Why is the little prince of Condal here with you? "
"I'm too lazy to explain. You'll see for yourself later," Li Huailin said. As he spoke, the crowd entered the castle hall.
Of course, the castle was ready to welcome the emissary. Queen Dakota, of course, was also waiting in the banquet hall. According to the customs of each country, it was not normal for the queen to go out to welcome the emissary, so she waited inside for a long time. She didn't expect that it would take so long to welcome the emissary. Did something go wrong?
Just as she was about to find someone to take a look, someone came outside. Dakota immediately tidied up her clothes and looked at the castle gate. Then, she saw a completely unexpected person.
"It's you?" The first person Dakota saw was not her husband, but Li Huailin, because he was walking in the first position. Then, she immediately saw the summoner and the others walking behind Li Huailin. Weren't these the adventurers who wanted to go against him and get the prince back? Why are they here?
"Oh, hello." Li Huailin waved his hand in a very friendly manner. "You see, I was a little delayed. It should have been very fast, but now it's fifteen minutes late. This is my fault."
"How is this possible? How did you get in?" Dakota looked puzzled, then immediately said to King Farim next to her, "Your Highness, this group of people … Hey, Your Highness, what are you doing?"
Turning around to look at Farim, Dakota was stunned again. What's going on? Farim is actually eating paper? Is he crazy? What the hell is going on? Dakota couldn't imagine it at all.
Farim directly stared at Dakota. If it weren't for this guy asking him to arrest some spy, he wouldn't have encountered this situation. Although he hadn't heard the whole story from Wilke, Farim also hated Dakota.
"Mother, I'm back." Wilke directly stepped forward and said.
Seeing a group of people looking at her so angrily, Dakota's first reaction was that her plan had been exposed. Then, Wilke told them everything, which was why Farim brought people here. She still didn't know who Li Huailin was.
"Dear, this has nothing to do with me," Dakota immediately said. Dakota immediately said, "Wilco was also deceived. I don't know what he told you, but it has nothing to do with me. Think about it, Eliza is the monster. She was the one who did all of this."
"You're lying! You're the one who cast the curse on us. Eliza is innocent, "Wilke immediately said.
"Wilke, you're still young and don't understand. I've always loved you very much. Eliza is the real monster. No matter what you hear, believe me, this is the truth." Dakota's acting was really amazing. To be honest, under normal circumstances, everyone would probably be fooled. But now, everyone really didn't look for her for this matter, but for the arrest warrant. As for the truth, they hadn't even started talking about it yet.
"No, no, no …" At this time, Li Huailin suddenly stood up. "I think what your stepmother said makes some sense, right? Although you said it was your stepmother who did it, it might not be true. So, I think we should ask the person involved. Why don't we find Princess Eliza and ask her what's going on?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Dakota immediately said. She knew too well that Eliza couldn't speak at all. Of course, she wouldn't be able to retort no matter what she asked. Confronting her face to face was definitely not a problem. "This matter should be investigated thoroughly."
"Okay, come, let's take a break. You continue eating," Li Huailin said. "Bring the princess over for me to take a look."
"So, you just want to see the princess, right?" the Jade Emperor asked.
"No, I want to ensure the safety of the hostage first." Li Huailin said softly. "Look, if we kill the queen now, who knows where the princess is. What if she runs away and kills the princess? Wouldn't the mission fail? So, we should quickly complete the mission in one go."
"That … makes sense." The Jade Emperor nodded.
They walked into the hall, and Li Huailin sat on the main seat, while Farim continued to sit by the side and eat his paper. Before Dakota could figure out what was going on, the guards dragged someone over.
"Pfft …" Li Huailin spat when he saw the person who was brought over. The person that the two guards dragged over was taller and stronger than them. To be honest, Li Huailin couldn't tell that the person was a woman at first glance, let alone a princess. However, above the person's head was the name Eliza Kagar, which meant that this person was really the princess they were looking for.
"This … this person is the princess?" The Jade Emperor was also stunned.
"I …" Li Huailin's whole body twitched. He pulled Wilke, who was next to him, and asked, "That can't be right. The princess was also cursed? Didn't you say that you are her brother? Why is she three times older than you? "
"No, the princess wasn't cursed." Wilke shook his head and said, "This is our sister, Eliza."
"I …" Li Huailin pointed at him for a long time without saying a word.
"Eliza." Seeing that the princess was brought over, Dakota spoke first. After all, she wanted to be the first to speak. "Now, you …"
"Wait …" Li Huailin didn't expect Dakota to just open her mouth and interrupt her.
"Didn't you want to clarify …"
"No, no, no, don't be anxious," Li Huailin said. "I am now sure that I was wrong this time. I apologize to you. Queen, you really didn't make a mistake this time. This princess is definitely a monster. Hurry up and drag her out and kill her. "
