Chapter 203 Two Secrets, Taking Advantage of the Topic
"I'm going to bury Jory Fair alive!"
In the afternoon, the early autumn sunshine illuminated the writing table through the window. When Li Feng was sitting at the table and replying to Kestrel, Shia appeared behind him and said:
"I'm going to bury Jory Fair alive!"
"Oh, I happen to have iron catalpas in my basement. You can use them to dig holes."
Li Feng continued to write the letter and said without raising his head.
Shia: "...Ha!"
Following Li Feng's train of thought, Xia imagined the scene where she was actually digging a hole with an iron catalpa, and couldn't help laughing, and her mood improved a lot.
She walked to Li Feng and sat down, lying on the table and asked:
"Why don't you ask me why I said that?"
Li Feng put down his pen and thought for a while:
"The thing that made you angry but didn't kill Jory Fair immediately must have something to do with your maid Shirley."
Shirley used to follow the real Shia. After the baby dragon replaced Shia, she followed the baby dragon.
Along the way, Shirley has always been loyal even though she was bullied by her master.
"You're really right."
Shia was surprised:
"Could it be that hunters have a spell to increase their intelligence, so they are smarter?"
Li Feng: "...I'm obviously smarter."
"All right."
Seeing that Li Feng was still not stingy in praising him, Xia smiled.
But she soon turned to anger and talked about what had just happened.
It turns out that just now, after Jory returned to Storm's End, he met Shirley alone in the red tower where Shia lived.
Probably because he wanted to bully Shia, Qiao Li stepped forward to tease her maid.
"When Shirley tried to run away, he beat Shirley and even took off her clothes in front of his entourage."
Shia said angrily.
Li Feng also frowned when he heard this:
"What happened next?"
"I had the intention to kill him directly, but when I heard that Chief Knight Commander Lannis was nearby, I went to him to rescue him.
I don't want to simply use death as revenge, that would be too boring and too cheap for him.
I could kill Jory easily, of course, but he was the Governor's child and he was sure to have a decent burial and a good name when he died.
I don’t want him to have that, let alone his mother Seren Weiss. I want all these evildoers to be ruined and die after losing everything. "
"Um--"
Li Feng didn't like to make extraneous matters, but thinking about the poor mother and daughter of Shia who died tragically, he felt that the young dragon's thoughts were understandable.
"What about your plan?"
Li Feng folded the letter he had written and asked Xia.
Since the young dragon said so, Li Feng thought she must have a plan.
Sure enough, when asked about the plan, Shia, who was obviously prepared, smiled quite proudly, with cunning eyes flashing:
"This is about a secret about Storm's End that I investigated.
"Oh? What is it?"
"I wonder if you know..."
As if she was afraid that someone would hear her, Shia paused, put her head close to Li Feng and then said softly:
"You know that when two blood-related people are united, there is a high chance that the child will have some problems, such as being paranoid, delusional, and irritable."
…
"Qiao Li, why do you want to go to the Red Tower? That's where the girl lives!"
Inside Storm's End, there is an extremely luxuriously decorated room.
As soon as the beautiful blond woman in satin closed the door, she began to question Jory Fair hysterically.
"Also, why are you pestering Shirley? And most importantly, if you are seen by Lannis, he will complain to your father!"
The beautiful blond woman's name is Selin Weiss. She comes from a wealthy aristocratic family on Storm Island.
Twenty years ago, Selin Weiss was given to Ponrosfell by her father, and she gave birth to Jolifer.
After many years of careful training, Selin Weiss relied on her beauty, the wealth of the Weiss family, and her son's talent on the extraordinary path to still maintain the governor's favor even in the past twenty years.
At this moment, she looked at her son with both anger and fondness.
Jolifer had the same blond hair as him, and in his mother's eyes, he was always the most handsome.
Celine Weiss dotes on Jory very much, because he is not only her son, but also the hope of the entire Weiss family.
As long as Jory can become the heir and the next governor, Selin Weiss's status will change from a mistress to a wife, and the Weiss family's wealthy property will expand many times.
"Your father is no longer at home young, he needs to identify his heir."
Celine Weiss stroked her son's face and said in a persuasive way:
"Your father loves you very much. You made a mistake last time and made it known to everyone in the Endless Sea.
But even so, your father did not give up on you. He sent you to the outer island, gave you meritorious service, and allowed you to come back in glory.
He wants to promote you to his legitimate son and make you the legitimate heir.
So at this time, you must not make your father angry and make him change his mind about making you the heir. "
The more Celine Weiss spoke, the more stern her tone became. She held Qiao Li's hand tightly and asked him to promise her that he would never do anything inappropriate again.
"But mother, why did you let that bitch Shia move into the Hong Tower? What qualifications does a person of her status have to live in the Hong Tower?"
Qiao Li didn't care what his mother said, he just stubbornly asked Shia where she lived.
"That's what your father meant!"
When she didn't get a satisfactory answer, Celine Weiss shook off Qiao Li's hand. She held her forehead irritably and said:
"She was of use to your father."
"Is it because she hooked up with that hunter Lai Yin? The free man in front of the Sea Throne who was personally appointed by the king?
He must be a spy sent by the king, but his father actually allows him to stay in Wind's End? ! "
Jory asked his mother testily.
After he returned to Storm's End today, his attendants told him what happened some time ago.
In the attendant's narration, Qiao Li recalled Yin, the person who had a deep impression on him.
At that time, demons were infesting the dock area. The governor had ordered Jory to clean up the rats contaminated by demons in the dock area, and asked the Purple Flower Church built in the outer city of Wind's End to assist.
Although Purple Flower Church is the property of the goddess of wisdom and life, it receives funding from the Ring of the Earth.
But it was built on the land of Storm Island, and most of the priests in the church were locals from Storm Island, so it should be under the management of Storm's End.
In Joe's memory, when he gave the order, even Bishop Frey of Purple Flower Church carried out his order.
But there was a foreign priest named Lai Yin who didn't obey his orders and went out to work for the Ring of the Earth.
This made Qiao Li feel that his authority was being challenged, and he was very angry. During those days, he often thought about how to kill chickens to scare monkeys.
However, later the demon body came ashore and controlled the resurrected corpse to destroy the dock area and the outer city, as well as the celebration banquet held by the Governor for him.
This made Qiao Li lose face and almost became the laughing stock of the endless sea.
After Qiao Li was arranged to leave by the Governor, he would occasionally think of the hunter who he had not yet had time to deal with.
However, Qiao Li felt that he was just a small character and might have died in the crisis caused by the demon.
Or simply die in a corner for any reason.
However, when he returned today, he heard the name Lai Yin from the attendant who reviewed the situation for him.
And what made him extremely shocked, surprised and angry was that this man was actually protected by the God of Dreams in full view of the public, and single-handedly defeated the demon that made him lose face.
What's more, the kingdom actually gave him a distinguished title in person, so that the governor could not do anything to him.
Later, Jory learned from the attendant that Lain had entered Storm's End to become a maester and lived there for a while.
During this period, Shia got acquainted with him again and stayed with him all day long, and they seemed to have a very close relationship.
Moreover, because of his good relationship with Lai Yin, the governor actually improved Shia's treatment, and his mother, Celine Weiss, could not get involved.
Shia is another person Qiao Li hates. He once fell in love with Shia's beauty, but Shia rejected him and threatened to tell the governor.
Another person who didn't obey his orders, and now, these two people are still getting together.
After learning this, Qiao Li couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, so he ran to the Red Tower as soon as he had time.
His original intention was to find trouble with Shia, but he didn't expect to meet her maid first, which was why he had the previous incident.
"Shut up and don't question your father!"
When Jory questioned the governor about letting Lain stay in Wind's End, Serene Weiss immediately interrupted him.
"Your father has his own ideas about Lai Yin, and it's not your turn to intervene now.
As for Shia, I admit that she is very beautiful. Even if she was placed in the royal city, she would be the most outstanding one.
But she is your sister, this is a scandal and your father will not allow it. "
Serine Weiss looked at Qiao Li, who was obviously unconvinced and very irritated and was about to refute, and reiterated:
“Qory, you have to remember that your future is more important than anything else.
Only if you successfully become the heir, your cousin Moros, who is the chief political participant, and all the efforts of the Weiss family will be in vain.
Your cousin has paid too much for you, don't let him down.
And there’s…”
Celine Weiss sighed anxiously and made it clear to Jory:
"Your father has lost interest in me, he has stopped calling me.
But fortunately, he never called anyone else, and now he just stayed alone every night, obsessed with his transcendence and his rights.
Your father has always been a ruthless person. "
Celine Weiss said, shaking her head in frustration or anger:
“When I was a little girl, I also fantasized about his love, but from the first day I married him, I knew that he only had rights and interests in his eyes.
Therefore, be useful to him instead of disobeying him. Only in this way can you defeat his weak legitimate son and become his heir. "
Celine Weiss's words were exciting and sincere, but none of this seemed to move Qiao Li, who was paranoid about himself as the center.
He was still as irritable as ever and asked his mother:
"Then what if I successfully become the heir? Will you still care about me?"
Hearing that Jory still insisted, Celine Weiss walked away disappointed and discouraged.
She walked to the dressing table and touched the makeup box on the dressing table with both hands, as if the makeup box could give her strength.
Celine Weiss calmed down like this for a while, and finally waved her hand in annoyance and replied:
"Okay, okay, as long as you become the heir and the governor, I don't care what you want to do."
"Okay, I will satisfy you and satisfy uncle."
Finally getting a satisfactory answer, Qiao Li said with a grin:
“But until then, I will also make people who don’t listen to me look good.”
…
"You mean Jory Fair, the child of Celine Weiss and her cousin Moros?
And Jori's irritable, extremely paranoid character is actually due to inbreeding? "
In the outer city of Fengxi City, at Li Feng's home.
Listening to the secrets discovered by Xia, Li Feng was somewhat surprised.
So, Governor Pangloss Fell has raised a child for his chief councillor for nearly twenty years.
And he also intends to train the child to be his heir.
Really...
But this can also explain why the chief councillor has always supported Jori unconditionally.
As far as Li Feng knows, Moros once paid for Jori's celebration banquet, but the banquet was ruined by the devil.
Then today, Moros repaired the square and organized the people to welcome the statue of the Seven Gods. In the final analysis, it was to build momentum for Jori.
"Are you sure about this?"
Originally, Li Feng didn't care whose child Jori was, but now he could take advantage of the topic, so he confirmed it again.
"Of course I can be sure. "
Xia replied with certainty:
"As an inconspicuous little cat, I have seen the letters in Seren Weiss's dressing box with my own eyes."
Hearing this, Li Feng finally understood.
"She is so careless."
Li Feng was referring to Seren Weiss, who dared to keep such letters.
"I think maybe love makes some women stupid."
Xia shrugged. She had the same attitude towards Seren Weiss's behavior as Li Feng.
"Well, since you told me a secret, I will tell you one too."
Knowing that Xia was going to make a fuss about Jory not being the Governor's biological son, Li Feng had a plan in his mind.
Combined with his discovery this morning, a plan to kill two birds with one stone.
"What is it? It won't be related to Storm's End, right? "
Xia was a little surprised. From what she saw from Li Feng, it seemed to be related to Wind's End Castle.
Li Feng nodded and told Xia how Haizan found the bloodless corpse in the coastal reef cave this morning.
He also told Xia that he guessed that the Soul Eater hiding in Wind's End City had used the soul fusion spell with the Governor.
Xia was shocked to hear all this. Perhaps because the news was too unexpected, Xia became very calm.
"No wonder... No wonder I always feel that there is a kind of chaotic spell on Ponros Fell."
Recalling the previous discovery, Xia said slowly.
"I'm just guessing."
Thinking about the details, Li Feng continued:
"There is something you may be able to confirm. You live in Wind's End Castle. Do you know that the Governor has recently summoned his mistress?"
For a moment, she didn't understand why Li Feng asked this, but Xia still thought seriously:
"I do have some impression of what you said. Ponros Fell seems to have lost interest in Serin Weiss.
But later I found that the other mistresses who thought they finally had a chance obviously didn't get what they wanted.
So it can be inferred that the governor has lost interest in all his mistresses. "
Hearing this result, Li Feng smiled as expected:
"It's not that he lost interest, but there is another soul in his body.
With outsiders present and sharing a body, I think no matter who it is, they will mind it. "
"Hmm-it makes sense."
Xia understood the meaning, but after thinking it through, she felt a little complicated. She continued:
"I suddenly realized that you are not only smart, but also know a lot of strange things. "
