Chapter 498 "Big, Very Big"
Hearing this, Duwei couldn't help but feel a chill rushing from his heels to the back of his head! Suddenly, a thought popped up in his mind: The Regent knows? He knows?
How I "bullied" his future wife, Miss Daisy, and if I find a husband for Princess Louise … … He knows?
But then, Prince Son's next words put Du Wei's heart back into his stomach.
The prince faintly smiled: "I know Daisy did some small things in the Northwest for her family … … But, you can just punish her a little. After all, she is my future wife. You don't intend to imprison her forever, do you? Hehe, for my sake, let her come back. "
Du Wei let out a long sigh of relief.
It seems Prince Son doesn't know much! He only knows that Daisy did some small things in the Northwest and was captured by me … … After all, Longbottom and his men slaughtered Daisy's entourage. Such a big matter, it's inevitable that news would leak out.
Moreover, from Prince Son's words … … At the very least, Du Wei can be sure that for Prince Son, Daisy is nothing more than a future wife, a woman!
With Prince Son's wisdom, Du Wei's weight in his heart is far more important than a woman! Therefore, there wasn't the slightest hint of blame in the prince's tone. Instead, it was a gentle persuasion.
"Your Highness must be joking." Du Wei immediately put on a calm smile: "Miss Daisy may be a little 'naughty', but as a subject, how could I imprison my future wife? It was only because the two ladies' bodies were a little weak, and because they were in the bitter cold of the Northwest region, their bodies had been a little unwell a few days ago, which had delayed the journey. Don't worry, the two ladies will arrive safely in the capital in a few days. I will send people to protect the safety of the two ladies, so Your Highness need not worry. "
"That's good." Prince Son faintly smiled: "Well, you can go now."
Seeing Du Wei walk away, the smile on Prince Son's face slowly turned into a bitter smile. Rubbing his chin, he muttered to himself: "Ai … … What a good Du Wei. Although I admire you very much, your courage is a little too big. Hmph, although Dai Li is only a woman in a political marriage, she is still my fiancée in name. How dare you detain her just like that? How dare you do this? That's ridiculous. If I don't constantly remind you, I'm afraid you'll really become more and more unreasonable in the future. "
He turned around and tapped the table lightly with his finger, saying in a low voice, "Du Wei, oh Du Wei, it's really not easy to control a talent like you."
•
When Du Wei walked out of Prince Son's study room, he was immediately hit by the night breeze. Only then did he realize that his clothes were soaked in cold sweat!
It really was a false alarm just now.
If Prince Son were to find out that I once imprisoned his fiancée in the dungeon and had "intimate" contact with her … … No matter how magnanimous he is, as a man, it would be hard for him to tolerate such a thing.
Moreover, finding a husband for his sister and using that kind of trick to scheme against his sister – I'm afraid no brother in this world would be able to tolerate someone scheming against his sister.
With this mood in mind, Du Wei arrived at the old emperor's sleeping quarters. Outside the palace, he saw two red robed court magicians standing guard outside the palace.
"Duke of the Tulip Family." The two court mages were polite to Du Wei, but their tone was still cold.
"I need to go in and use some drugs on 'him'." Du Wei faintly said: "If you don't feel at ease, then follow me in and watch from the side."
The two looked at each other with some hesitation. After all, they are also mages, so they know the rules of the mage circle. When a mage is concocting some secret potions, they absolutely do not welcome other mages to watch from the side! This was because most magicians viewed their secret recipes and secret techniques as treasures, and would never allow others to secretly learn them.
The two hesitated for a moment before one of them spoke up: "Sir, please go in first. We … … will go in after a while … … Hmm, how long will sir need?"
"Not much." Du Wei faintly smiled: "A few minutes will be enough."
With that, he swaggered into the palace.
Inside the huge palace, several candlesticks were lit. Groome was still in his luxurious attire as he stood in front of the mirror. When Du Wei walked in, there was a hint of sadness in the tailor's eyes.
Even when Du Wei walked behind him, he did not say a word. He only looked at himself in the mirror.
"What are you thinking about?" Du Wei softly asked.
"I was thinking … … If only I wasn't born with this face. If that was the case, I wouldn't have been chosen when they were looking for a substitute. " Groome's voice was very low. Du Wei could see that there was fear in his eyes, but more than that, there was despair.
Finally, he turned around and forced a smile at Du Wei: "Sir … … Is, is it time?"
"Yes." Du Wei nodded.
Suddenly, Du Wei stretched out his hand and patted Groome's shoulder. Then, he gently raised his finger and silently, a transparent yellow light enveloped the two of them!
"Groome, time is of the essence. Just listen to me and don't ask any questions! We only have a short while! Now that I've used a spell, you don't have to worry about others hearing me! There's only enough time for me to say it once. If you understand, just nod your head! "
Groome was stunned for a moment before he hurriedly nodded.
"According to our plan, you have to die tonight. After you die, they will send your body to a quiet place to bury it."
As he spoke, Du Wei took out a dark green bottle from his bosom: "This is a bottle of medicine that I concocted. Drink it now and it will allow you to enter a state of suspended animation! It will make you look like you're asleep and your body will enter a state of hibernation … … However, I haven't tested the effects of this medicine yet. I don't even know how long it will last! Remember, in a while, you have to stick this pill between your teeth! When they kill you, swallow it at the last moment … … Then … … it might save your life! "
Groome's expression changed greatly! However, Du Wei's stern gaze made him not dare to speak.
"Listen, I can't guarantee how long the effects of this pill will last. Perhaps after you're buried as a corpse, you might die from being buried alive. However, I can't find out where you're buried! Thus, I can only place a magical imprint on your body … … An ingenious magical imprint. This magical imprint will only react after a day! However, before that, even I won't be able to find where you are! That's because the people outside are also Court Magicians. Ordinary magical imprints can be detected by them! So … … What I mean is, I can't guarantee that the medicine I gave you will allow you to enter a state of suspended animation for a day! If you wake up early and the magical imprint on your body doesn't trigger my senses and I can't find you … … then you will really be buried alive! No matter what, this is your only chance of survival! Do you understand? If you do, nod your head! "
Seeing Groome nod his head quickly, Du Wei opened the bottle cap and stuffed a pill into Groome's mouth. He carefully stuck it between Groome's teeth.
Groome's whole body was trembling! It's understandable that when a person who thought he was dead suddenly has a chance to live, it's easy to imagine how emotional he would be!
Finally, the tailor squeezed out a few words from his throat. Clearly, he was very emotional. His voice was trembling as if he was about to cry: "Wh … … Why, my Lord!"
A complicated expression flashed across Du Wei's face. Instead of looking at Groome, he looked up at the ceiling and sighed: "Some people say I'm not a good leader … … It took me two days to figure it out … …"
He smiled: "I really am not a good leader!!"
Then, he glared at Groome and said, "That's enough! Stop talking nonsense! Before I change my mind, stop crying! Otherwise, the people outside will see through us! "
•
Groome's "death" was very peaceful.
This was what the two Court Magicians reported to Prince Son.
After waiting outside the palace for a while, they walked in and found nothing out of the ordinary. Du Wei stood there while the dying man had a look of despair on his face.
Then, the two Magicians took out a bottle of poison and fed it to Groome.
However, there was one interlude: Originally, the two Magicians wanted to use magic to dissolve Groome's "corpse"! But Du Wei stopped them from doing so.
His explanation was: Because Groome drank the decaying potion he concocted, there were some strange potions left in his body. Therefore, he couldn't use other potions to dissolve Groome's body. Otherwise, something terrible would be created in the palace. If this thing were to spread through the air, it would be dangerous … …
After all, with Du Wei's magic prowess, no one would dare to doubt his words.
However, even though the two Court Magicians gave up on dissolving Groome's body, they still did something "safe": They personally cut off the throat and trachea of the corpse!
This way, they can be 100% sure that this guy is dead.
Duwei saw this in his eyes, but he didn't show the slightest emotional fluctuation. So be it, as long as he doesn't wake up in three days, then even if Groome's trachea is cut, Du Wei still has a way to heal him.
In order not to arouse suspicion, Du Wei didn't ask where Groome's body would be buried.
Fortunately, the Roland Continent doesn't have the habit of burning corpses because "cremation" is an extreme method. Only the evildoers and evil heretics would be burned to death!
Most people, even if it was out of respect for the dead, would not burn the body of the dead.
Of course, if these people really did burn Groome's body, Du Wei wouldn't be able to do anything. At least he tried his best.
Just like what he said, Du Wei isn't a cold and ruthless leader … … There are still some soft spots in his heart. Some things should be completely eradicated, but he still kept some of them.

No one knew that the "Emperor" who attended the "Qingfeng Festival" celebration that night was killed that night.
On the day of the Qingfeng Festival, the celebration lasted until midnight. At midnight, the entire imperial capital lit up with fireworks invented by the Duke of the Tulip Family.
The celebration lasted all night, so the streets were especially deserted the next morning.
Even the originally bustling registration area of the Knight Association's Martial Arts Tournament was much quieter the next day because people celebrated too late the previous night.
However, the Duke of the Tulip Family rode to the headquarters of the Knight's Association early in the morning.
After his soldiers knocked on the door for half an hour, Dylon Knight, who was wearing a sleeping robe, opened the heavy wooden door with sleepy eyes. When he saw Du Wei standing outside, he couldn't help but be stunned.
"My God!" Dylon exclaimed, "Duke, what's the matter this early in the morning? I heard that you attended the celebration dinner in the palace last night. Did you party all night and didn't sleep, so you came to invite me to breakfast? "
Du Wei put his hands behind his back and smiled, "My friend, treating you to breakfast is no problem. But before that, I want you to do something for me. "
"Huh?" Dylon blinked.
Du Wei finally stretched out his hand. He opened his five fingers, and in his palm was a Knight's badge. Dylon swallowed his saliva. This was the Knight's badge that he personally "awarded" to Du Wei the night before.
"What's the matter? Duke? Is there a problem with this badge? "
"No, no, no." Du Wei laughed, "Your Excellency Dylon! I, Du Wei Rollin Rudolph, am 18 years old, a Level 9 Knight in the continent! I'm signing up for the first martial arts tournament! "
Dylon opened his mouth wide and stared at Du Wei, "You … you're signing up for the tournament?!"
Looking at the president's big mouth that could fit two eggs, Du Wei laughed heartily. He put his arm around Dylon's shoulder and pushed him, "Okay! My friend! Go in and wash up! I'll take you out for breakfast … Then, I have a good plan to make a fortune. I think you'll be interested!! "
"Make a fortune?" Dylon's eyes immediately lit up, "Make a fortune? Uh, how big can it be? "
"Very big, very big … …" Duwei smiled sinisterly.
