Chapter 518 A Series of Causes and Effects

Although Su Lun knew that Ekaterina had great ambitions, she was unparalleled in talent.

Moreover, the various layouts of the Lance family for hundreds of years seem to have big plans.

Lu Ying's first-class grand duke is already a top-level nobleman, and then there are princes and royal families.

Su Lun felt that they might have ideas about the throne.

But the current situation is that there is no condition for proclaiming emperor at all.

Or Ekaterina?

What the hell happened?

Where is the "provisional head of state" Grand Duke Raphael?

What about Lu Ying's other nobles?

No matter what, it is impossible for a young daughter of the Lance family to be the emperor.

If a few years later, Su Lun still thinks it is possible.

But it's only been a few months since I saw you!

Su Lun was shocked for a moment, and then asked curiously: "What happened? Isn't Lu Ying still fighting a civil war? How did Ekaterina become emperor?"

When he spoke, he had already taken off his clothes and entered the water in his big underpants.

The three of them used to have sex like this when they were in Old Lington, and now they don't see each other.

The only difference is that in the past, young women with gambling addiction still had to wear clothes to avoid taboos, but now there is no difference when they are naked.

The hot spring pool was not big, and Qianjo and Mr. Jing stood on each side, and Su Lun lay in the middle vacated by the two.

Hearing this inquiry, Chijo responded: "After the War of Outer Gods in Lingdun, the Bona royal family completely withdrew from the stage. Then Grand Duke Raphael became the interim head of state. The Grand Duke is also very heroic, super mechanical warrior and mechanical The Demonic Beast Legion swept almost everything. He united a group of allies and suppressed all kinds of old-school nobles with extremely tough and iron-blooded means. In just one or two months, the rights of all the lords, big and small, were taken back and concentrated in the hands of the temporary parliament. It solved the previous situation that the Bona royal family faced with the imperial power not leaving Lingdun. Then there was a very old-fashioned plot, where Grand Duke Raphael declared himself emperor in Lingdun."

"oh."

Su Lun wasn't too surprised.

No matter how you look at it, Grand Duke Rafael does have the strength to support his ambition.

If you want to be a stable emperor, you will definitely not leave behind the mess of lords everywhere, and it is reasonable to liquidate lords, big and small.

He asked again: "Didn't Raphael proclaim himself emperor? How could it be Ekaterina?"

Qianjo also seemed to find it very dramatic, with a half-smile on his face and said: "Because it was ten days ago. That is, the eighth day after Raphael proclaimed himself emperor, the new emperor suddenly died suddenly in the palace."

When Su Lun heard this, a strong sense of conspiracy came to his heart, and he asked in surprise, "Sudden death?"

Qiantiao's tone also became a little emotional, and said: "Yes. After the forensic examination, no problems were found. It was just a normal overwork and illness, and he died suddenly without warning. If it is explained from the mysticism, his fate is not good. Fit to be an emperor."

"."

Su Lun heard such a dramatic plot, no matter how he looked at it, it looked like some kind of absurd script.

There is a high probability that it was not a sudden death, but a murder.

But the truth doesn't matter anymore.

The point is, Grand Duke Raphael is dead, how could Ekaterina become emperor again?

He asked directly: "But even if Raphael died, why did Ekaterina become emperor again? What happened to Lu Ying?"

"Yes. No one expected that your fiancée would be in charge."

Qiantiao narrowed his eyes slightly, and said with emotion: "After listening to what follows, you will know that that lovely wife's methods are clever."

Hearing this address, Su Lun slightly rolled his eyes, but listened quietly to the following.

Qianjo said again: "After the catastrophe in Lingdun before, everyone's eyes were focused on Grand Duke Raphael. No one cared, the youngest daughter of the Lance family went to the Kingdom of Regalia in the south. The first heir 'William Regadi' was killed by you, and then it was announced that 'Fick' became the first heir. But you didn't show up, so Ekaterina, who is the first princess, temporarily took charge Most of your Crown Prince's rights."

yes!

Regardi family!

Su Lun suddenly realized something when he heard the beginning.

It seems that I got a key clue and explained some unreasonable things reasonably.

However, it doesn't seem right.

Just marriage is not enough.

Qianjo continued: "What exactly Miss Ekaterina has done in the south in the past few months is unknown to the outside world. But what can be known is that the Regardi family announced a month ago that they will do their best to Support any decision she makes. In other words, she is Lei Jiadi's boss. When the news came out, all the major forces in Lu Ying were shocked. After all, your wife was known to the world before except for her beauty, but she showed no signs of political talent."

Su Lun's expression was slightly strange.

He has been with Ekaterina for a while, and after understanding, she does have such skills.

But it's still unbelievable that he took control of the Regadi family so quickly.

There must be something else hidden here.

Speaking of this, Qianjo thought of something, paused for a moment and said: "Oh, I have to mention that after she went to the south for more than a month, Kelsen, the head of the Regadi family, died suddenly. The result of the investigation was murder. His wife Portia and Grand Duke Raphael injected a soul poison in order to make William ascend the throne in advance. The specific newspaper disclosed that anyway, it was all kinds of promiscuous private lives and disputes among the nobles. Murder by the right is bloody. Mrs. Portia was found out to be a believer of Outer God, and she was directly sent to the gallows."

"Kelsen also died suddenly?"

When Su Lun heard this, the corners of his eyes twitched inexplicably.

When he was in Lingdun before, he had seen the cheap daddy side of the original owner, and the guy he knew for sure was dying soon.

Su Lun didn't feel anything at the time.

Now that I saw the result, I was amazed that there were too many "coincidences" in this matter.

The person was definitely not killed by Ekaterina.

Su Lun knew before that Raphael had won over William and his mother. Kelsen's death must have been done by them.

After all, there are still capable people in the Kingdom of Regadi, and the death of the king will definitely be thoroughly investigated.

Most of the disclosures in the newspapers should be true.

But now coincidentally, William is dead, Mrs. Portia is dead, Kelsen is dead, and Grand Duke Raphael is also dead.

It's such a coincidence.

No one picked the "melon" planted by hard work, but fell into the hands of Ekaterina, who had just become a princess.

coincide?

Obviously not.

Although the Lance family did not directly participate in these incidents, they must have also played a disgraceful role behind the scenes.

Su Lun had guessed before, so it wasn't too surprising.

And now there is a big plus.

Grand Duke Raphael made all preparations to become emperor.

He fought everywhere, wiped out political enemies, and took back all the rights of the lords within the empire.

Raphael solved all the thorny troubles, and he was reprimanded, but died suddenly and was picked.

Others only thought that the Lance family had picked up a big leak for no reason.

But only people like Su Lun who know the inside story know how clever the layout of the Lance family is.

It's just unbelievable.

Hearing all these "coincidences", Su Lun also understood why Ekaterina was able to become emperor in just a few months.

This is the plan of the Lance family for hundreds of years.

It is also the century-old accumulation of the Raphael family.

And the Regadi family, the fallen royal family.

It is simply a lot of benefits, all in one.

It's no wonder it went so well.

At this time, Qianjo also stated the summary of the incident: "With the full support of the Regadi family, and the agreement of the only two remaining congressional families, the Lance family and the Robus family, naturally there is no objection. And What's more coincidental is that the old diehard nobles who opposed it before were all cleaned up by Grand Duke Raphael. The remaining old nobles hoped for a new emperor, not the brutal Raphael family, so they naturally supported it. So all parties support it, and three days ago, Ekaterina became the emperor logically."

"."

This logic is fine, but Su Lun also noticed something wrong when he listened.

Even if the head of the family, Kelsen, died suddenly and "Fike" was not around, those uncles would come out to fight for power.

How could it be a princess' turn?

Although he vaguely guessed that Ekaterina might have used some means and had a plan already in place, it still seemed to be missing something crucial.

Without waiting for Su Lun to think about it, Qianjo suddenly leaned over and put his hands on his shoulders, not shying away from the intimacy of the large skin contact, and jokingly said: "Are you surprised that your wife can control Thunder so quickly?" The Kadi family is curious?"

"oh?"

Su Lun always felt weird when hearing this title. Everyone in Liming knew that the marriage between "Fike" and Ekaterina was a deal.

This has nothing to do with Su Lun.

But today, Qianjo kept saying "your wife". It doesn't look like a simple joke.

If not, Qiantiao's face was filled with embarrassment, and a heavy news suddenly broke out: "There is definite news that Ekaterina is pregnant."

"???"

"???"

"???"

When Su Lun heard this, his mind was filled with question marks.

He froze for a moment, trying to wake up and hear what he heard.

Although he vaguely guessed this possibility before, it shouldn't be!

Regadi are a group of decayed old antiques, they want to restore the country wholeheartedly.

Therefore, it is indeed reasonable to push this princess Ye to be the emperor, but it is not enough.

If it is the heir of Regadi, it can be explained perfectly.

Regardi's blood can inherit the throne, which is what their old bones dream of.

Now that it is a fact that Ekaterina proclaimed herself emperor, the pregnancy news must be accurate in retrospect!

It was precisely because the news was accurate that Su Lun was so shocked.

Although there is no paternity test in this fantasy alchemy world, there are many kinds of bloodline secret techniques.

What is certain is that if Ekaterina is really pregnant, then it must be Regardi's blood.

Otherwise, it is absolutely impossible for those old fellows of the Regardi family to support her.

This made Su Lun very puzzled. He and Ekaterina did get along very happily and slept together in the newlywed Xiaoju Rose Manor before.

But nothing happened.

Could it be Rose Manor.?

No, with her proud temperament, even if she did, she would definitely not dare to admit it.

In an instant, various thoughts flashed through his mind.

Su Lun suddenly remembered the words that Ekaterina once said in the carriage during the wedding parade: "I will only marry this once in my life, and there will only be one man. So in the future, if you have Don’t be too surprised when you hear some news.”

"So. What she said at the time, couldn't it be the news now?"

Su Lun suddenly felt that most likely this was the news.

Fuck.

The news of Xi becoming a father, let alone him, who would not be surprised if they encounter it?

For the first time, Su Lun felt that his brain was not enough.

Since she can say that, so, is it really mine?

But when did I do it? !

Seeing Su Lun's expression changing was wonderful.

Even Mr. Jing, who has always been indifferent, cast a curious look.

Chijo also felt very curious, and let out a light sigh.

It's clearly "conclusive evidence", but judging by his expression, it doesn't look like he did it, but it seems he did it again.

She already knew Su Lun very well, and she didn't have any shyness, so she asked directly: "So. Did you do it or not?"

Listening to the straightforward question, Su Lun responded with a blank stare.

The key point is that the body of this young gambling addict is close to her, and her arms are trapped in a majestic situation. The atmosphere will be very strange when the three of them get along.

But there are no outsiders here, and there is nothing to hide when thinking about it, he said directly: "I don't know either."

Qianjo asked in surprise, "I don't know?"

She frowned. She wanted to hear some gossip, but she didn't expect to get such a response.

Su Lun spread her hands.

Qiantiao, the melon-eating crowd, didn't hear the expected gossip, and with a look of dispirited expression on his face, he said casually, "Could it be some other place, you forgot?"

"How can this be"

Su Lun was speechless about this kind of question.

After the development of the brain domain is enhanced, his memory is not bad, how can he forget such important things.

He just wanted to say that it is impossible to forget, but just halfway through, suddenly!

There seemed to be a flash of inspiration in his mind, and some fragmentary pictures flashed across.

somewhere else?

yes!

The two had the opportunity to be intimate, except for a few days at Rose Manor after their wedding.

Another time.

In the Emerald Holy Land of the Dalu Nationality.

That time he also drank Shixian honey wine and got drunk.

Then after waking up, Ekaterina, who was still "Katyusha" at the time, had already left.

Together with this idea, it seems that the brain has been stimulated by something.

Those fragments of memory suddenly flooded into my mind like a slideshow. Although they were not clear enough, they were all beautiful pictures.

Su Lun's eyes instantly burst into strange emotions.

In the picture in his memory, in the drunken dream and joy in the tree house at that time, there was another person besides Uta!

Su Lun finally remembered why he was bitten. (260 chapters)

Because I really fell asleep!

Recalling this fragment of memory, Su Lun remembered the Rose Manor after the wedding, no wonder Ekaterina would say that.

"Today is the wedding night, do you want to exercise your rights as a husband?"

"No, I'm me, Fick is Fick."

"The suggestion I made just now is just to let you hear some news in the future, so that you don't feel so bad."

So that's what she meant?

Su Lun finally understood.

It turned out that Ekaterina had already told her.

It's just that I didn't think of it at that time, so I'm so confused now.

Don't look at the time being wrong, this is not a problem for alchemists at all.

Seeing that Su Lun's expression became very strange, both Chijo and Mr. Jing gave curious looks.

Qiantiao's eyes suddenly rekindled the fire of gossip, and cast a questioning look, "Huh?"

Su Lun showed a dumbfounding expression, but it was hard to say, "I will ask her again when I meet in the future."

Listening to the tacit statement, Chijo said, "Tsk tsk. That lady's layout is really not simple."

Su Lun raised his eyebrows noncommittally.

If it was Ekaterina, he also felt that there was an element of political transactions.

But Katyusha, on the contrary, he felt that he had taken advantage of the little girl. After all, if you don't talk about drinking, you always start by yourself. Do it and do it, there is nothing to dare to admit.

Compared with politics, Qianjo obviously cares about gossip.

Hearing that Su Lun acquiesced in having an intimate relationship with the new empress, she asked enthusiastically, "Hey, hey, tell me, what's going on."

"."

Su Lun's forehead is full of black lines, can you elaborate on this kind of thing?

Although he didn't mind telling Qianjo, but there is still his own senior sister here.

Mr. Jing also saw the predicament of Su Lun, so he interjected rarely, and said: "When I talked with Master Pierre before, the lady from the Lance family was also there. The family, the small fringe kingdoms of the four northern states of Beizhou, have also announced to join the Luying Empire. It can be regarded as the unification of the north and the south that the royal family of Bona had never imagined. With the actual control of the "Military Intelligence Department", she has no control over the Luying regime. Control is probably the best in the past few hundred years."

Su Lun listened to his senior sister helping out, nodded: "Yeah."

This is also Ye's brilliance.

After a series of "coincidences", everything seemed to fall into place.

She wields highly centralized power.

Mr. Jing did not hide his praise in his tone, and said: "This is even more rare. All the rights are gathered in her hands, but she is not like Grand Duke Raphael, who wants to restore the dictatorship of the old era .As soon as she proclaimed herself emperor, she followed the New Deal and announced a series of new bills. Opened the Alchemy Academy, financially supported the establishment of basic colleges in various places, so that everyone has the opportunity to contact alchemy; also introduced the labor machinery of Mafa Technology, liberate the labor force. In this way, the alchemy civilization will inevitably usher in an era of great development."

After Su Lun heard these measures, she also understood why her senior sister praised Ekaterina so much.

Because promoting the development of alchemy civilization is also what Liming is doing.

Mr. Jing also said: "The other thing is that after Yekaterina became emperor, she took the initiative to sign a permanent armistice alliance agreement with the Marfa military to jointly resist the invasion of the plane. All the military fortresses established in the previous war between the two empires were opened. Give Mafa the hinterland of Lu Ying, and advance and retreat together. Not everyone who is an emperor can have this kind of courage."

Listen to Qiantiao, and feel thoughtful.

Su Lun also felt very good after listening.

At the end, Mr. Jing added: "Oh, one more thing. Ekaterina sent a message through Sabina, saying that a Gusmao airship promised to you is ready and ready to be delivered at any time. "

"Um."

Su Lun nodded.

With the airship, now we have to find a group of mechanics to modify it.

He thought of Colonel Dora.

"It's too late to discover the plane channel. An unknown number of magicians have already mixed into the alchemy plane. And now there are several ninth-level magic towers built in the plane channel, which are difficult to break through. The Mafa army Fang also played very hard."

"But the good news for now is that the enemy's top combat power has not yet arrived, and the battle between the two sides is still stalemate."

"According to intelligence, the pirates under the command of the 'King of the West Sea' and the 'King of the South China Sea' were recruited or coerced by some mysterious people, and went on an adventure to hunt for treasure in the extreme western waters. There are also an unknown number of magicians on board."

"."

The three of them soaked in the hot spring pool like this.

After chatting about some current affairs, Su Lun also talked about his experiences these days, about the tomb of the gods, information about the Ten Thousand Legislative Corps, and the Crusaders, everything in detail.

Qianjo was bored listening to it, but Mr. Jing was very careful.

Su Lun didn't plan to go over the plane channel for the time being, so there was no need to think about it, it was very tragic.

His current strength is not suitable to participate in that kind of large-scale battle.

On the contrary, it is more appropriate to destroy the treasure hunting plans of those Celestials.

The priority right now is to improve your strength.

Su Lun said: "The gods of the plane of gods are looking for [Fountain of Mimir]. I suspect it has something to do with their talent of [The True Solution of Vientiane], so they must not be found. I am going to Kabitron, the capital of Emperor Marfa. After recruiting some mechanics, let's go to the Kingdom of Dragons."

Listening to his plan, Mr. Jing also approved: "Well, you can go and have a look, now that you have such a superior space ability, the risk will be greatly reduced. And I also got some information. It is said that the One Piece Black Another purpose of Sam's adventure in that sea area is to find the universe's source quality to advance to the ninth level. The sea area is inaccessible, and there used to be a brilliant civilization. Maybe there really is [source quality]. Both you and Otilia have Opportunity to touch the excellent talent of the ninth-order threshold, if you can find the source of the universe, it is good to prepare in advance. Oh, and one more thing, I read the alchemy manuscript left by my father carefully, then [Isaac's Dragon [Tattoos] If it can be fused, it will be of great help to you to withstand the backlash of natural disasters after you advance to the eighth level."

"."

Su Lun nodded.

This is also one of his plans.

The Dawn Regiment's current combat strength configuration is already very strong, enough to deal with most crises. What's more, there are mechanical warriors like No. 19 who can forcibly resist dragons, as well as dragon-slaying daggers, dragon-slaying armors, and dragon-slaying potions. Long Island can be visited.

There is no need to raise the target, the seventh-order giant dragon is not a big problem.

If you can really hunt a few of them and refine the [Isaac's Golden Body with Dragon Pattern] breeding outfit, the increase in combat power will be very terrifying.

He asked again: "How about you, sister?"

Mr. Jing responded: "The offensive of the mage group on the plane of the gods is very fierce. I will stay near the channel of the plane and kill the masters of the other plane. And the laws near here are the most perfect, which is of great benefit to my advancement to the ninth level. .If you encounter any danger at that time, you can notify me."

Su Lun: "Yeah."

Soaking and soaking, snowflakes floated in the sky.

The three looked relaxed in the hot spring pool.

The breeze is slightly cool, the spring water is warm, and the time is rarely leisurely.
