Chapter 412 The Ultimate Beneficiary?
Text Chapter 412: The ultimate beneficiary?
"If you have prepared in advance."
Victor thought for a while, and then quickly replied: "Even ordinary people... can live with only one head."
"What is the specific method? How long can you live?"
Annan asked.
Victor paused: "You mean, His Royal Highness Philip is not dead?"
"He can't die."
Annan shook his head.
He had made a deal with the tragedian...he was doomed to die in a great tragedy as a sacrifice to please the tragedian.
And if this scene is called a "grand tragedy", it would be too sloppy. Compared with the possibility of the tragedy writer hastily ending, Annan is more willing to believe that Philip has not died yet.
Annan frowned slightly, opened the curtains and looked out the window.
News of Philip's assassination apparently had not yet spread.
Because although the density of people outside has more than doubled, the pace of people coming and going has also increased significantly, and they are no longer so leisurely, but nervous and serious.
But Annan didn't see much panic and anxiety on their faces. At most, he was just a little nervous, or he felt a little sleepy because he was woken up before he woke up and had been working until now.
The only possibility is that although they are looking for the "murderer", they don't even know what the murderer did.
This is mainly to prevent information from leaking out.
If the second heir to the throne was assassinated when Grand Duke Winter came to pay a state visit... If this kind of thing leaked out, it would be very bad.
Because no matter how you think about it, it is very abnormal.
And once people find that something cannot be explained by their own logic, they will start to conceive a conspiracy that can rationalize it.
The first to bear the brunt was Grand Duke Annan who came to visit.
This visit will become a "conspiracy of the enemy country" in some people, and Philip's death will be linked to Annan. The previously negotiated policy of reopening treaty ports and resuming normal business exchanges between the two countries will also be hindered.
In addition, the eldest princess cannot escape.
Kafni was a whole generation younger than them...Philip and she were brothers and sisters, and since more than ten years ago, Philip had been against her. It was also during that period that many of their brothers and sisters died for strange reasons.
It was generally believed at the time that this was probably done by Philip.
Because the eldest princess has great advantages, there is no need to do these dirty jobs, and the only fourth prince who survived is an idler who refused to inherit the throne from the very beginning. Then it can only be done by Philip.
Although there is no evidence, it is generally believed to be so.
However, after Philip "death", such public opinion will inevitably reverse.
Regardless of whether it was done by Philip before... As long as Philip is dead, people will only doubt the eldest princess.
As for Kafni... she is simply too young.
She is only fourteen years old, although this will make her appear less reliable... But in the face of this kind of conspiracy, she will be subconsciously excluded.
Ordinary people may be more inclined to the idea that "Annan is behind the scenes".
But Noah's upper echelons—especially those nobles at the level of "guarantors"—had quietly turned to Philip not long ago. The purpose is naturally the "Fourth History" in the hands of Philip.
Philip himself is the best spokesperson for the "Curative Effect" of the Fourth History Theory.
His existence is enough to prove that this great book of spells does have the extraordinary ability to make mortals reincarnate. And the most amazing thing is that he wasn't even sanctioned by Sir Silver... which means that it has a high probability of being a permissible means of reincarnation.
More things, they will not understand. After all, the specific information of a great-level spell object is weighty knowledge in itself. For mortals, they are too heavy, and may make people fall into a nightmare from which it is difficult to wake up.
And if you look at it from their perspective, the logic of this matter becomes very clear—after Philip reached a deal with them, the original "guarantor" forces of the eldest princess were selected in large quantities. Switch to Philip.
Coupled with the political theory advocated by Cafney, she has the support of Noah's military.
All the advantages that the eldest princess had previously held are now gone
But Annan went to Noah this time to re-sign a trade agreement with Noah officials... This matter was presided over by Princess Elizabeth. The reopening of shipping also means that the ocean exploration industry will be developed together, and the re-employment of the army will become more convenient.
And in the eyes of those nobles, it may also be regarded as an exchange of interests - it was initiated by Grand Duke Annan, who gave up this achievement to the eldest princess in exchange for her not attacking Kafni too much .
At the same time, when Annan signed the trade agreement, Philip was killed... Then, those high-ranking nobles who had betrayed the eldest princess before had to stand in line again and choose Cafney or Elizabeth; There is another person who is behind the scenes, and that is Grand Duke Annan.
Because Annan took the blame on the bright side, he couldn't publicly support Kafni. Otherwise, the entire Noah might riot... This means that Annan almost admitted the crime of "murdering the heir of another country and supporting the puppet king to come to power".
In particular, it was still the Duchy of Winter—just the Duchy.
It would be fine if it was a high-ranking Theocracy... But in the eyes of the Noahs, Winter is a country with poor people and barren land, much weaker than them. After all, the winter people who appeared in other countries were either hard laborers doing manual labor, mercenaries or killers.
In this way, no matter whether Prince Philip was killed by Annan or not, it means that the eldest princess has lost all her enemies-although Kafni will be saved, it doesn't matter.
Anyway, she didn't have any offspring in the first place, and by adopting Kafni as her adopted daughter, everything would be fine.
——So assassinating Philip at this time is undoubtedly a wonderful move for the eldest princess to kill three birds with one stone.
"Noah's nobles... Anyone who knows the relationship between me and Cafney will definitely think so. Because Philip died like this, and the person who has benefited the most is Princess Elizabeth."
Annan sneered: "They start with interests in everything, and they don't pay attention to decency and tradition like the winter nobles... They are more like businessmen rather than landlords. So they think that something is the most profitable Whoever is the author, this matter is related to whom.
"Because they're really going to do it, and they're willing to do it.
"As long as they have the opportunity...they can do it."
It can even be said that if the eldest princess Elizabeth thought of this plan and had the ability to implement it, she would indeed do so.
Compared to the throne... It was not a "choice" for her to kill her brother, whom she hated so much.
On the contrary, it can be regarded as a kind of "celebration".
