"Alice, why are you here?" Jía was really angry. She only knew a certain plan temporarily, and the plan that she knew did not include Alice.
Alice should be living in Tetenis' courtyard with Eve and Alian now. Why is she in the dangerous Princess Villa?
This must be Isabella's premeditated plan! No wonder she refused to tell the plan in advance, and she even deliberately proposed not to let Alice show up during this time!
Seeing Jía's angry face, Alice couldn't help but shiver. She showed a trembling look, "Sister, I'm sorry … I know that the Princess Villa is opening today, so I asked Teacher Rolla to bring me from the Dark Moon early in the morning. Then … I met my good friend Celine on the way, so I invited her to the Princess Villa to taste the new wine. Lilu found out about me, and I threatened her not to tell you. I wanted to give you a surprise … "
Everyone thought of what General Crawford said earlier. Celine met an "old friend" and went to the Princess Villa for a banquet. It turned out to be Princess Alice.
Celine was the patriarch of the top business family in the Shadow Empire. She was also the first batch of partners who entered the Dark Moon and cooperated with the Princess Retail Store in many aspects, so it was not surprising that Celine and the little princess had a friendship.
"Your Majesty Jía, please don't blame Princess Alice." Celine saluted and said, "We are good friends. We haven't seen each other for a long time. I proposed to go to the Princess Villa, and I also promised Madam Rolla that I will be responsible for the little princess' safety. I didn't expect to encounter such a thing. Speaking of it, I also have a lot of responsibility."
(What long time? I even met her at the plants trade fair last time … I am not good friends with this cunning big-breasted alien! Moreover, this girl actually wants to snatch the master from me? Ah, wrong, it should be snatching Brother Chen Rui from me!)
Alice muttered in her heart, but she nodded obediently on the surface.
Celine pleaded a few words for Alice, and she left with the guards sensibly. The audience at the side understood. So this was the case. Speaking of which, the little princess and Celine were not in the wrong. The one who was in the wrong was the person who planned this conspiracy!
Everyone's attention fell upon Angele and his son.
"It's him!" Alice pointed at Zall and shouted angrily, "Sister, this man said a lot of disgusting things about taking me to bed. I said I'm a princess, but he still dared to …"
(Actually, even without the sleeping gas, I will automatically "faint" after saying these words.)
Alice's words made Jía's face gloomy. The two murderous intentions in her cold eyes seemed to be tangible, and they shot toward Zall. Zall was already terrified when Alice jumped out. How could he withstand the Demon Overlord's pressure? He could only tremble on the ground.
If Lawson's ill-intentions towards Celine were like kicking an iron plate, then kidnapping the little princess with the intention of violating her was like hitting his head against an iron wall! No matter what kind of terrible plan Her Majesty Empress had behind this matter, there was only a dead end left in front of him now.
"Your Majesty!" Angele finally spoke, "All this is a misunderstanding. Zall doesn't know the true identity of the little princess. Otherwise, he won't dare to offend even if he has 100 guts. But now, he has committed a serious crime that is irredeemable. It's my fault for teaching my son, but he was used first and then acted recklessly. I just ask Your Majesty to leave him an intact corpse for the sake of the Mishan Family's many years of hard work. "
Zall's last glimmer of hope was lost. His body collapsed as if all his bones were removed. Obviously, Angele was going to sacrifice his own son.
Angele completely pushed the responsibility to Zall and Plinton. He blamed the crime of kidnapping the little princess and envoy on Zall's personal behavior (which was also the truth). There were only 2 intentions. The first was to sacrifice the pawn to save the king. The second was to drag the Boll Family into the mess. To deal with 2 huge elder families at the same time, Jía would definitely consider it more carefully, especially during this sensitive period.
Jía's anger gradually subsided. She looked at Zall and Lawson, showing a thoughtful expression, "This matter is no trivial matter. It must not be tolerated. However, in my opinion, I don't think this should be a kidnapping incident that specifically targets the royal princess and the Dark Shadow Empire's envoy …"
This sentence gave a conclusion to this incident. Not only Angele and Stiller were half relieved, but even the ministers knew what was going on. It seemed that the empress was still quite afraid of the elder families, so she didn't make a fuss. Moreover, in the face of the huge pressure from the foreign enemy, the Shadow Empire, it was really inappropriate to hurt the internal forces. From the perspective of the overall situation, the empress' choice was very correct.
Just as everyone was waiting for the result of Jía's handling of this matter, a large group of imperial guards walked in from the courtyard door. As soon as they entered the courtyard, they attracted everyone's attention.
There were about 300 imperial guards, and all of them were women. Judging from their neat pace, it was obvious that they had a tacit understanding and were well-trained. They wore the same cloak and held scimitars in their hands. They also wore a veil that covered their faces. The cloak was a close-fitting leather armor of the highest quality. The most surprising thing was that the strength of this team of imperial guards was far beyond imagination. There were 40 to 50 Demon Emperors! The rest were all Great Demon Kings!
The well-trained elite legion could use mediums such as magic tattoos to connect power and will into a whole to restrain and fight against Demon Emperors and Demon Overlord powerhouses. So, what was the concept of 40 to 50 well-trained Demon Emperors plus more than 200 Great Demon Kings? If the timing was right, even a Demon Overlord would be in danger of being killed in 1 blow.
Now that the situation between the Shadow Empire and the Fallen Angel Empire is tense, these powerful female guards should not be the help of the Shadow Empire, nor the people of the White Feather Estate or the Warlock Fortress, but the power controlled by Jía herself!
Perhaps what is revealed now is only a part of it …
Just when everyone was shocked, the leader of the Demon Emperors came out to report, "Your Majesty, the imperial guards cooperated with the secret intelligence department to search for the Mishan Family, but they encountered strong resistance. All the rebels have been killed! Although we did not find the whereabouts of the envoy, we found some other very important things. Please have a look, Your Majesty. "
The sentence "all the rebels will be killed" was like a bolt from the blue in Angelo's ears. The rest of the people, especially the people in the elder families, also changed their faces. There was a sudden whisper.
Just now, Jía's meaning faintly revealed that she did not want to fight for the entire family, so the imperial guards immediately created a massacre in the Mishan Family!
Regardless of whether it was because of the time difference of the order, regardless of whether it was the envoy or not, this kind of massacre was a despicable act for the elder families. Angelo suddenly became the victim from the offender. He was filled with righteous indignation. As he was about to unite all the elder families to pressure Jía, he saw what the imperial guards presented to Jía.
Some documents and a black box.
Angelo felt like he was punched in the face. He could hardly believe his eyes. The grief and indignation instantly froze on his face.
Jía opened the document and glanced at it. Her pupils shrank suddenly. The more she read, the colder her eyes became. She said sternly, "What a descendant of the founding fathers! What a guardian family of the empire! She completely regards the interests of the empire as the Mishan Family's own! "
The corners of Angelo's eyes twitched. He lowered his head and did not dare to look directly. When the ministers on the side heard Jía's words and saw Angelo's expression, they vaguely guessed the contents of some documents. Many people began to feel perturbed. The Mishan Family was not the only one who did under-the-table operations and benefiting private interests at the expense of the public. As the operator of a big family, whose hands were clean?
For so many years, almost every family had a score. Today, the Mishan Family just happened to be exposed because of the envoy's matter. The only hope was that these things would not implicate too many people.
"Your Majesty, this box is protected by a powerful magic circle. We have used many methods, but we can't open it."
Angelo felt lucky in his heart. In terms of the seriousness of the consequences, the things in the box were 100 times more serious than the documents outside. Fortunately, this box was enchanted with a special powerful magic circle which was unbreakable. Only he could open it. Once the external force exceeded a certain limit, it would automatically be destroyed. The dead could not testify.
At this moment, the black box suddenly floated up and slowly flew in front of the bespectacled beauty. Rolla stretched out her white jade-like palm. Her 5 fingers trembled quickly with a mysterious rhythm.
The suspended box kept flashing with a strange light, then with a click, the light disappeared. The "unbreakable" black box opened safely, shattering Angelo's last trace of luck.
"No!" Angelo roared desperately. His body was burning with flames. He instantly appeared in front of the black box and punched it, trying to destroy the things inside.
Before his fist touched the black box, it froze. At the same time, the flames emitting from Angelo's body froze like a frozen ice sculpture. After a soft sound, the "frozen flame" on the surface turned into powder. Angelo fell straight down. Although he was not dead, he even lost the power to commit suicide.
It was a piece of cake for Rolla to deal with Angelo who had the strength of the early stage of the Demon Emperor.
Rolla didn't even look at Angelo. The opened black box automatically floated in front of Jía. The sharp-eyed people on the side had already seen that there were a few things in it. A scepter, a medal, a magic scroll, and a few booklets.
Jía took out a few booklets and flipped through them. The haze on her cold and beautiful face became more and more gloomy. When she picked up the scepter and the magic scroll, she was completely unable to suppress her anger.
"What should I call you? Honorable Marquis of the Bloody Empire … Angelo. Mishan? "Jía's cold voice with anger shocked the audience.
Marquis of the Bloody Empire!
Angelo?
Many people immediately realized why Angelo rushed to the black box desperately and why the imperial guards would be killed by the Mishan Family's desperate resistance when they got these things.
Many families in the Demon Realm pursued the principle of "don't put all your eggs in one basket". The family bloodline would be divided into other empires. In case the 2 empires were hostile, then the 2 bloodlines would completely abandon the past entanglements and become truly hostile. Regardless of victory or defeat, there would always be one bloodline that could be continued. This was an unspoken rule.
Angelo's two-timing behavior as a member of the Fallen Angel Empire's elder family and the "part-time" Marquis of the Bloody Empire had broken this unspoken rule. It was treason.
If the previous kidnapping of the envoy could still be attributed to personal behavior, then the revelation of this shocking secret completely pushed the entire Mishan Family into the abyss of eternal damnation.
In this way, the nature of the kidnapping of the envoy was no longer the so-called instigation or lust. Once the envoy had an accident, it was likely to become the fuse of the war between the Shadow Empire and the Fallen Angel Empire. In the war between the Shadow Empire and the Fallen Angel Empire, the beneficiary was naturally the Bloody Empire. As the "Honorable Marquis" of the Bloody Empire, Angelo did this with extremely sinister intentions. The entire Mishan Family could only be described with one word: unforgivable.
"Impossible … Why …" Angelo was on the verge of collapse, but he just muttered to himself.
In fact, Angelo was not a spy of the Bloody Empire. When he was on a diplomatic mission to the Bloody Empire, he got the title of honorary marquis through someone's help, leaving a way out for himself and the Mishan Family.
What made Angelo incredulous was that even his closest people didn't know this secret. Except for the Bloody Empire's Raizen the Great and Prince Aleus, only a certain woman knew about it. This woman was resourceful and proficient in the art of traps. She was once the controller of the capital's most secret agency. With her help, Angelo successfully set up the secret room to hide these biggest secrets. If outsiders wanted to break in, they would only perish together.
In such a short period of time, how could the imperial guards and secret intelligence department find the black box hidden in the secret room safely?
There was only 1 possibility. The Bloody Empire or that woman betrayed him. The Bloody Empire's Raizen was in retreat. The Great Prince Aleus and the Second Prince Edmund were fighting in the north of the Iron Fist Estate. With the identities of these 2 people, it was impossible to leak this secret when the Mishan Family still had great value. The biggest suspect was the woman, but the woman was also not suspected because she was already dead.
She died in a well-known accident about a year ago. This was witnessed by Regent Obsidian. Afterward, Obsidian, who was furious, even searched for a certain organization nationwide for revenge.
What the hell is going on? Angelo felt that the entire sky had collapsed. Starting from the Princess Villa incident, the Mishan Family seemed to have entered a trap, and then they waited for him to take the initiative to walk into it step by step. At this point, the evidence was conclusive. No matter how he defended, it was useless.
"Angelo, what else do you have to say?"
"Haha!" Angelo suddenly laughed with madness in his laughter, "You are indeed Her Majesty Empress. You actually set up such a trap. I admit my defeat! However, why didn't Your Majesty also publish the yellow booklet just now? In the past hundreds of years, which families, which royal families and the Mishan Family have done what shady business and what benefits they have obtained are all in it! In summary, many people's crimes are not much lighter than my 'treason' today! "
Angelo's madness became more and more intense. He looked at the nearby elder families and royal families, "You, you, you … you can't escape! Perish together with the Mishan Family! "
Wherever he looked, not many people dared to look directly at him.
Under all kinds of complicated gazes, Jía took out the yellow booklet that she had flipped through previously. With a slight movement of her hand, the yellow booklet turned into ashes in the black flames and disappeared without a trace.
"You are about to die, yet you still want to frame others. This is simply unforgivable!" Jía's cold voice sounded like a knife. Like a sharp knife, it cut into Angelo's heart. Angelo only felt dizzy, and his remaining will completely collapsed.
