"What's wrong with Lie Yang?" Seeing Hong Hong who suddenly shed tears, Ling Ge felt that something was unusual.
Elise on the side also became interested in gossip and pricked up her ears. Lanya, Celia and others were also listening attentively.
Scarlet wiped away her tears and slowly told what happened after the brother and sister returned to the capital: "He and I returned to the capital and finally saw my father for the last time. My father summoned several core ministers and in front of them, the symbolic The scepter of the imperial power was handed over to him, and a few commandments were left to bind him. That night, his father returned to the embrace of the true dragon of his ancestors." When mentioning her father's death, Scarlet started to cry again.
After hearing this, Lin Ge thought that if everything goes well, Prince Lieyang should naturally ascend to the throne and be promoted from prince to emperor.
However, as one of the three major powers in the continent of Ios, the Garama Empire is bound to have countless undercurrents during the power transition period of such a huge empire, and accidents can easily occur.
You can tell by looking at Crimson's expression that things are not going that smoothly. He suddenly remembered that Prince Sun was assassinated by an assassin when he first came to Castalon, so he hid in the modern world for more than half a month.
At that time, he and Lanya were still implicated, and were chased by a group of lizardmen outside the city to Elise's home.
Of course, he didn't know that it was Elise's home at that time. It was also at that time that he discovered that Elise's true body was a round golden spider.
As for those assassins, he remembered Prince Lieyang once mentioned that they were sent by his uncle. This proves that his uncle is also very interested in the position of the Lord of the Empire. Could it be that he is causing trouble again this time?
"Is he Lieyang's uncle?"
"You, how do you know?" Scarlet Red temporarily stopped crying, raised her head, and looked at Ringer unexpectedly with two big lizard eyes. She remembered that she had not yet talked about what her uncle had done.
Sure enough, Lin Ge thought to himself.
"Guess, didn't he send someone to assassinate Lieyang before? What did he do this time?"
"That bastard old guy wants to exile my brother to Dragon Blood Island. Dragon Blood Island is the place where the true dragon ancestors fell to death. It is a cursed evil island. Every year, a group of death row prisoners who have committed serious crimes are exiled to the island. But no one has ever escaped. If he goes there, he will definitely not come back alive. No, maybe that guy will be dead before arriving at Dragon Blood Island. The old guy only needs to let people poison the food. Kill him. Please go save him quickly." Scarlet Red became more and more anxious as she spoke. She seemed to have seen the scene of her brother foaming at the mouth and dying, and stared at Linger with pleading eyes.
Lin Ge glanced at the wall clock on the wall. There were still ten minutes left before getting off work. No matter how anxious he was, he would not leave early, so he comforted Crimson and said, "I know you are anxious, but calm down first. Lieyang is mine." My friend, I will definitely go to save him, but before that, I have to understand the details first."
"What do you want to know?"
"Drink this glass of wine first. It will calm you down." Ringer handed over a wine glass, which contained a purple-black liquid. This was an enhanced version of Evening Prayer with the addition of Soul Flayer powder. The second enhanced version, in addition to soul sucker powder, also adds advanced devil horn abrasive, which has a better calming effect.
Scarlet Hong took the wine glass and took a sip. Immediately, a chill ran through her body. The irritability in her heart was swept away. She suddenly felt that her father's death and her brother's exile were no big deal.
She blinked and calmed down completely, and the anxiety and sadness in her eyes disappeared.
"Thank you, I feel much better." Seeing the change in crimson, Lin Ge nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that this glass of wine had a good effect.
"Your uncle is so powerful that he can exile the legal heir to the throne to that kind of place?" Crimson replied calmly: "Originally, with the support of several core ministers, my brother could successfully ascend to the throne. But I didn't expect it. , just the day before the enthronement ceremony, the old bastard jumped out and accused his brother in front of all the ministers, saying that in order to ascend the throne as soon as possible, he colluded with the devil and killed his father. The national preceptor also stood up and said that from his brother I sensed a hint of demonic aura.”
"That national master is your uncle's man?" Linge hadn't thought too much at this time, thinking that the theory of colluding with the devil was just a frame-up by Uncle Lieyang.
As long as he is powerful enough, he only needs an excuse to banish the prince who has not yet ascended the throne.
However, Scarlet's answer was beyond his expectation.
"No, the Imperial Master has never had a political stance and has never participated in any political struggles. My father also trusts him very much. He was also present when my father handed the scepter to his brother."
"Huh?" Lin Ge began to realize something,
"Is Lieyang really exiled for this crime?"
"Yes, in order to prove his innocence, my brother took the initiative to accept the test of the National Master and the Ancestral Stone in public. However, when the light of the Ancestral Stone shone on him, it really reflected a trace of black energy, although it was very subtle. , but it was indeed the aura of the devil, and everyone could see it clearly. In this way, he was determined to have dealt with the devil. Although it could not be proven that his father's death was directly related to him, a prince who was in league with the devil, He could not ascend the throne. So he was exiled to Dragon Blood Island and accepted the trial of his ancestors." Hearing this, Lin Ge had a terrible guess in his heart: Could the demonic aura on Lieyang be me... Prince Lieyang didn't seem to know that he had joined the underground camp and became a demon, so he accepted the test with such confidence.
When he noticed the black energy rising from his body, he must have been wondering when he had been in contact with the devil.
It's impossible not to save him now.
"How long has it been since the exile ship set off?"
"I just left the dock yesterday, and it will take about a week to reach Dragon Blood Island." Croaking - croaking - a dark crow popped out of the wall clock, making a noisy sound.
Lin Ge took a deep breath and said, "I'm going to save him right now."
