While the maids were cleaning up the room, Jenkins looked at Alexia, who put his right index finger in front of his lips, signaling Jenkins to talk after the party.
Jenkins nodded, not at all surprised that Alexia had discovered her secret. While he was stroking the fried chocolate, he was thinking about all the things that happened between the two of them after he met the short lady. Among the many girls he met after he came to this world, the one with the most similar personality to him was indeed Yali Khia.
"only… "
Looking secretly at the blushing Princess, even the cleaning maids could notice that her blushing was abnormal. But no one dared to talk too much. As maids of the royal family, they knew very well what would happen to those who talked too much, and Julia, the head maid, was standing behind them with a stern eye.
"Just what on earth is Alexia going to do, do I look like a scumbag who likes 16-year-old girls?"
Chocolate, whose chin was being scratched, subconsciously nodded.
"Although I really appreciate Miss Stuart's character and methods, she is too young..."
Julia glanced at Jenkins now and then, but Jenkins' face was so calm that it was impossible to see what was going on inside him. Julia's idea is actually very simple. Since her princess has said such a thing, even if she said it under the circumstance of being induced, then this man must at least respond.
But Jenkins obviously didn't have this plan, and he couldn't understand what Alexia wanted to achieve after thinking about it.
"Looking at it now, this so-called secret box should be a trap, a very delicate trap."
The maids in charge of cleaning withdrew one by one, and the snacks and tea on the table were replaced with new ones. No one raised any doubts about the strange men in the room. These are servants who have passed many tests and are trustworthy.
"A-11-01-7421 [Compulsive Universal Wisher] will only appear in uninhabited mountains, or in long-abandoned buildings, **adventurers open it. It was last recorded at the beginning of this era, This point in time has nothing to do with the four serious secret languages on the secret box, and the races that use those languages have disappeared in the material world long before this era... I think this is a trap set by someone. Deliberately hiding this dangerous artifact in the form of a 'treasure box', and letting Dolores get it, I have to admit that this is indeed a very delicate trap."
Alexia had already drawn conclusions from the outcome of the incident, and Jenkins agreed with her. If you want to seal the weird thing, there is no need to engrave the opening method on the surface of the seal in a secret language. This is just like the plot in those knight novels, which is to force people to open it.
"Then who could it be? This is simply too dangerous. It's hard to imagine someone using weird things as traps."
Jenkins asked the princess, but the latter couldn't tell, and finally Alexia answered him:
"It should be the handwriting of the eldest prince or the eldest princess. Among Dolores' siblings, only he has the strongest political power. I think it should not be difficult to recruit some bestowers who are proficient in sealing rituals and ancient languages. Remember At the last ball, did he send someone to try to recruit us? I think it's revenge, and if it succeeds, no one will be able to track down who set the trap."
Ordinary people can't investigate the means of the bestowers at all, and the bestowers can't know the source of the weird things through divination. If Dolores Stuart really died of the wish-making monster, the murderer behind the scenes would never be discovered by people.
Originally, Jenkins looked down on the other children of the Stuart family, thinking they were just a bunch of rotten fish and rotten shrimps. This time, he really understood the dangers of the royal struggle. I didn't know how to comfort my friend for a while, so I could only sigh, and asked again:
"What about the Howard Stuart trial?"
"The tree house is supporting the princess to get the throne."
It was Julia who answered the question. She was wearing her usual maid outfit, which was completely different from the temperament she had when she attended William's family dinner a few days ago:
"His Royal Highness Harward belongs to the faction of His Royal Highness the Princess...Of course, he is used as a pawn for testing. We can't ask too many things, because he really doesn't know anything. The information about the Duke of Antak provided to you Intelligence is one of the few valuable clues His Royal Highness has. He is still too young to see what he is involved in."
Even though he said this, no one would pity him. Since he joined the battle for the throne, he had to prepare to be smashed to pieces. Those who were not prepared could only end up in the current situation.
Jenkins nodded, thinking about what the tree house was going to do, and then thought that Miss Stuart's brothers and sisters were not easy opponents to deal with.
He thought for a while and said:
"If you are in trouble, you can go to the Church of the Sages for help. Although according to the "High Tower Agreement" (revised version 3) thousands of years ago, the Orthodox Church will not easily intervene in the succession of the secular regime, but in my opinion In terms of face, they will also provide the necessary help. Since Julia has... been to Nolan with me, I think the church should know my connection with Ruen. As long as you mention my name, the church is at least willing to take you in, guarantee You are absolutely safe."
"Ok, thank you."
Miss Stuart responded softly, her face has become much more normal, but she still doesn't look at Jenkins.
"Speaking of which, I would also like to thank you for your help, Miss Stuart. Well, I think you may also know that a terrible thing happened in Nolan City on Friday. During that time, I used the The ring you gave me sent some helpers, I hope this will not affect your arrangement in Nolan."
"Of course not, it is my honor to be able to help you."
While Dolores was talking, she quietly tugged on the clothes of the maid standing aside, signaling her to say something.
"Mr. Williams, you can use those people. Mr. Koth, who is in charge of Nolan, wrote us a letter to report what happened on Friday. I hope they can help you."
"It did help me."
Jenkins nodded again, remembering the attack on the clock tower that day. He didn't know how much Miss Stuart had lost in Nolan's hands, but they belonged to the side of the sneak attack, and the fighting time was very short, so the loss shouldn't be too big.
