It was already late at night when Conrad returned to his mansion, but there were still hundreds of people waiting to welcome him under the lights in the entire courtyard.
Needless to say, the guards who look after the house and the courtyard, and the servants responsible for various tasks have also begun to be busy. Maybe they also start working at this time on weekdays, but the smoke rising at this time is just because of the people who returned late at night. The head of the family may want to eat something and prepare it in advance.
This person who has an absolute position in the family and holds huge power and wealth in the entire kingdom probably never thought that he would die so quietly and return to his mansion as a puppet. .
If there is knowledge under the spring, it will definitely be very uneasy.
Mo Bei and the others took good care of this puppet, and it looked clean and tidy. But as soon as they entered the inner courtyard, housekeeper Qiao Ya ordered the servants to make various preparations as usual.
"Your Highness, the meal is already being prepared. Please take a shower first."
Conrad hooked his hand at him, motioning for him to come closer, and then said in a deep voice:
"Let someone take them to prepare. After that, no one else, including my bedroom, is allowed to come near."
As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Bei and Akali, the six of them standing behind him, seemed to have heard the call and stepped forward, waiting for the next arrangement.
"This... Your Highness..."
A look of astonishment appeared on Joel's face, and although he suppressed it instantly, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Something happened in the family!
The master's failure during this outing is probably related to this!
Someone wants to seize power! ?
This was the situation he analyzed from his master's few words. While he was shocked, he also felt lucky that he was still trusted by Conrad. He even felt a passion to die for his confidant in his heart.
Seeing that Conrad remained calm, he carried out the order without saying another word.
Mo Bei and others took this opportunity to follow the servants who led the way to roughly understand the layout of the building, so as to avoid losing their direction when controlling the puppets to move around.
They gave hints of civil strife in this race, not only to use Conrad's identity to secretly divide the family's forces and facilitate their actions. There is also the purpose of preventing it before it happens. It is not impossible for this kind of thing to happen. The more the person in power speaks out in the family, the stronger the private dissatisfaction will be.
Don't happen to catch up with them when they come and seize power. If the puppet is destroyed, it will be troublesome.
So they really started to act as personal guards in a decent manner and checked the puppet's next range of activities.
"Can you do it yourself?"
In the huge bathroom, Mo Bei asked the puppet.
As soon as he finished speaking, the puppet's expression began to lose focus and his body collapsed.
The next step was to change the clothes of the puppet to make it look like it was still living a normal life, so Perona cut off the sensory connection with the puppet without saying a word.
Mo Bei chuckled, picked up the puppet's collar and threw it to Ned and Alvin who were standing aside.
"Leave it to you."
"Aren't you here to help?" they asked.
"I'm responsible for delivering the news. For any big task, three people need to work together."
He said this, but he took off his armor and clothes, and soaked in a pool as big as a public bath wearing only his shorts, and hummed twice in comfort.
"Depend on..."
When Ned and Alvin saw this, they no longer hesitated. The two of them cooperated to change the clothes of the puppet. Then, not to be outdone, they took off their clothes and jumped into the bath together.
"Be quiet. Have you ever seen any nobleman be so noisy in the shower?" Mo Bei said disgustingly to the two of them.
"Where can I watch nobles take a bath?"
Alvin groaned and opened the row of small jars beside the bath and looked at them one by one. He found that there were salt grains and various good-smelling spices inside, as well as several bottles of oil. He muttered again:
"Isn't this pond used to stew meat before?"
"Aren't you watching? Those are for rubbing on the body. Come on, let me rub a set of thirteen incense for you?" Mo Bei raised his chin at him.
"Forehead...."
Alvin and Ned were both stunned, and then they remembered that this boy who trained and played with them on weekdays and even cooked for them was really a nobleman.
After thinking about it, the two brothers were actually a little touched. What a pure friendship this was.
Then the two of them smiled at Mo Bei in a flattering way and said:
"You have the most to worry about, so let's rub it for you."
"Huh? Did you change your gender today? Just rub your back for me. Forget it. I was joking just now. It smells delicious when you rub it on your body. No one will notice anything wrong when you go out later."
As Mo Bei spoke, he turned around and lay down on the edge of the pool, letting the two of them rub his back with a slightly rough fabric, just like going back to school, when roommates rubbed each other's backs in the bathhouse.
At that time, some people pointed out their identity as freshmen, saying that only when they first entered school, they could gather people from the same dormitory to go to the bathhouse together. Gradually, they all had their own pace of life, and some spent all day. Playing games, some work hard part-time, and some just work in hotels.
At that time, they looked curious and expectant after hearing it, but Mo Bei didn't have the chance to experience it.
Counting the time, they should also be facing graduation. I wonder if everything will be okay?
Mo Bei lay on the edge of the bathtub, gently shaking his head as he rubbed his back, and unconsciously thought far away.
It's just that this bath towel is not very strong. He remembered that there seemed to be loofahs at the Kurast harbor, but they were thinner and the skin was ridged. People here had not yet developed the use of loofah sacs, so But it’s a magic tool for bathing.
At this time, there were only five fellow Lu Gaoyin palace guards guarding the bathroom door. As for the others, including Akali and the others, they had been arranged by Gioia to rest in several nearby rooms on the grounds of taking shifts. .
Perona got in touch with the puppet again, looked at the situation in the bathroom, and then cut off the contact with a weird expression.
"What's wrong? Is everything okay over there?" Akali saw her expression was different and asked.
Perona shook her head, indicating that nothing happened.
"What are the three of them doing?" Milor asked casually, observing the situation outside through the gap in the curtains.
"Bath together." Perona told the truth, concisely.
"Together..." Akali's breath was stagnant and her expression was tangled. .
Not long after, she opened the inventory and took a look at it. She saw an extra bottle of green gas potion in the designated position. This was a positive signal, which meant that she could proceed to the next step. If it is a red life potion, it means the opposite meaning.
She immediately nodded to Perona:
"Okay, let's take the puppet to the dormitory."
Mo Bei and the other three, freshly dressed and well-equipped, followed the puppet towards Conrad's dormitory. The remote signal connection was going very smoothly.
As for Conrad's No. 1 dogleg, Gioia was really frightened at this time. He secretly mobilized the most trusted forces and replaced them in various key posts. He only felt that the wind was shaking, and he had even listed it in his mind A list of suspects who might betray the family leader.
He has long been tied to Conrad. Once a power seizure occurs, there will definitely be no way out. This is the fate of a loyal servant.
He looked through the identity certificates submitted by Mo Bei and others, and couldn't help but smile. He thought that at this time, fresh blood without power entanglements was more trustworthy. He hoped that these people were smart enough to understand that servants like them Soldiers, defecting in front of the battle will only lead to death.
Thinking of this, he came to the corridor outside Conrad's dormitory, looked at the guards who were pretending to be on guard, and took out a roll of drawings.
