The antidote was not a panacea, and it was impossible for Queen Isabella to recover immediately after taking it. What's more, even if you don't care about the toxin's damage to your body, even a normal person, after intense vomiting and bloodletting, can't recover to normal after lying down for a while.
Therefore, after confirming that Queen Isabella's life was not in danger, all the people gathered in the house were dispersed by her. She wants to rest well, so she doesn't need to be disturbed here.
Only Duke Douglas Gerald, who was the housekeeper, was left behind, while the Duke of Rochester, who behaved strangely in this matter, left with everyone.
"So you think what happened tonight is that the queen is testing whether you are the bestower?"
The carriage shook slightly, as if the wheels had crushed a stone on the road. The street was dimly lit, and the lingering smog made visibility extremely low. Even the dim streetlights on both sides of the road could not provide much help, but made the street more ambiguous.
The light in the carriage was also dim, and there were three people in the carriage, except for Jenkins and Miss Windsor sitting on both sides, and Miss Silver Flute as the bodyguard. She was silent from the beginning. Miss Windsor waited for Jenkins and wanted to take him home, so she saw the dukes rushing into the mansion half an hour ago.
"I don't think so, I'm sure."
Jenkins corrected her statement, took the tea cup handed by Miss Windsor, flicked it against the side wall of the cup, and a layer of cold air spread along the liquid surface to the whole body.
He tried to take a sip, and felt that the frozen tea tasted a bit weird. After putting down the teacup, the cat immediately came over and put its little furry face on the cup to enjoy the coolness.
"This also makes sense. Whether you are a gifter is very important to Queen Isabella's next arrangement, no matter what that arrangement is. But what I didn't expect was that she would risk her life to test you. According to Your description, that kind of toxin is definitely not pretending. Even if there is an antidote, it is very dangerous."
"They are generally unafraid to sacrifice for a higher purpose."
Jenkins replied that the "they" here also include Dolores' father, Salhi II, who also sacrificed his life to accept the clone ceremony for the domestic political situation and to create succession conditions for the next generation.
"So this is the end of the matter?"
Miss Windsor asked again:
"I know there must be bad rumors coming out tomorrow morning. Whether His Majesty will be able to attend the meeting tomorrow or even the day after tomorrow is a mystery. What I want to say is, is this the end of such a temptation? Does she believe that you are just An ordinary person?"
"I don't know either. This will only be known after learning about the queen's current plan. She has reached a deal with a group of amazing people, all of whom are gifters, so don't investigate this matter, I will also Tell Dolores that she doesn't need to investigate this matter. The church will find out, after all... "
"After all, we are not the only ones who support you to become king now."
Miss Windsor accepted the words with a smile, and Miss Yindi on the side also nodded slightly. She knew that it was the right thing for her employer not to intervene in this matter.
Jenkins took a long breath and stopped talking about the topic just now. He said again:
"Please wait for me so late, I was going to walk home."
"It's such a hot weather, and the air in Nolan is not good, how can I let you walk back?"
Saying that, Miss Windsor looked into Jenkins' eyes. Jenkins thought he understood a certain emotion from it, and this "understanding" was also because on the night of the dragon game, he undoubtedly encountered Miss Windsor and Hathaway fighting swords.
He thought of Miss Windsor's "confession".
Subconsciously, he moved his eyes away, and turned to look at the grumpy cat because of the hot weather. Miss Windsor laughed, she knew that Jenkins understood, but the way Jenkins looked away at least showed that he was not very resistant.
The carriage sent Jenkins home, and the girls in the family received a message from Miss Windsor, knowing that Jenkins would not come back for dinner, so they didn't wait for him.
But Jenkins did not rest at home for long, and went out to church again. The reason why Miss Windsor did not directly send him to the church was because after the queen was "assassinated", if she went straight to the church from the mansion where she was staying, people would definitely be gossiped about.
In the church, I talked about what happened tonight with Miss Bevanna, who was still awake. She also agreed that Queen Isabella took the poison on her own initiative in an attempt to test Jenkins. This is actually very easy to verify, just ask Miss Audrey to do a divination. This kind of divination that only involves "yes" and "no" is usually not complicated.
"Although the High Tower Agreement does not prohibit the bestower from becoming a secular king, once your bestower's identity is confirmed, it will definitely have something to do with the church. Although the nobles are not tired of and afraid of the bestower, they are tired of the bestower related to the church .”
This was Queen Isabella's intention understood by Miss Bevanna, she didn't know that the Queen had cooperated with the tree house. So when Jenkins told her this, Miss Bevanna was particularly surprised:
"How dare she?"
The organization called "Tree House" is the number one enemy of the church. After all, the believers of lies have the intention of cooperation, so they are not regarded as the enemy of the church now.
"How dare she?"
Miss Bevanna repeated it again, stretched out her hand and patted the table in an unladylike manner, then bid farewell to Jenkins in a hurry, and took this news to prepare for the next step to track down the members of the tree house.
Jenkins' purpose of coming to church has been achieved. Looking at the time, he knows that Fenny is probably asleep now, so he is also going to go home to rest. But before leaving, he observed from the Eye of Reality that his senior sister, Ms. Stillwell, was also in the church. After thinking about it, he talked to Miss Stillwell who was waiting in front of the Gate of Vientiane, and made sure that she would leave the church in half an hour, and then left with satisfaction.
Half an hour later, the night was dark and there was no light in the alley. The woman who left from the back door of the Sage Church was stopped by a man with a cat who came out of the alley just as she walked out of the block.
"Mr. Candle?"
She looked at the white cat on the man's shoulder and asked.
"Don't talk to my cat, I am Mr. Candle, the cat is not my real body... It seems that Miss Bailing has talked about me to you, and you can recognize me only by this cat."
"No, this is information I bought from the black market. Only after knowing that I know you are a believer in lies, Bai Ling is willing to say that you know each other."
Miss Stillwell denied that Hathaway had "betrayed" the man in front of her, and then subconsciously narrowed her eyes:
"How did you find me? Don't tell me you just happened to be walking cats around here."
