"When did she die?"
Colin looked at Mrs. Sharon's body expressionlessly, and was filled with anger.
Unlike the assassination of Marquis Vincent, this time the assassination was obviously not directed or acted by Colin himself.
Of course, Colin didn't feel sad about this person's death. Although she was Aisha's biological mother, when she was about to poison Aisha when she gave birth, Colin had already sentenced her to death in his heart.
The reason why he didn't kill her on the spot was because he wanted to leave it to Aisha to handle it herself.
But unexpectedly, Mrs. Sharon was also assassinated.
Even if she was going to die, she should die in Aisha's hands.
"My lord, Mrs. Sharon died of poisoning. According to the degree of stiffness of the body, the time of death was probably last night."
Colin nodded and fell silent.
He didn't check who had been in Mrs. Sharon's room last night, because that might not be very meaningful.
After exposing Mrs. Sharon's conspiracy, Colin didn't pay much attention to this person, and just randomly placed her in a side hall of the palace.
This can't be blamed on Colin's carelessness, after all, at the beginning, he really didn't think it was necessary for this person to arrange heavy guards.
First of all, Mrs. Sharon is not a professional, and it is impossible to escape the heavily guarded palace.
Moreover, after killing Duke Miller, Mrs. Sharon's life and death are no longer important. It is impossible for a weak woman like her to cause any disturbance after losing Aisha's trust.
But when Colin learned that the Marquis of Vincent did not incite Duke Miller to participate in the rebellion, he realized that there was something wrong with Duke Miller's motives, and he also realized that Mrs. Sharon might be useful.
Unfortunately, he still woke up too late.
When he tried to interrogate Mrs. Sharon, she was already dead.
However, Colin also confirmed one thing because of this—there must be someone behind Duke Miller and Mrs. Sharon!
Before, Colin had speculated that the Duke of Miller might have seen a rebellion and wanted to take advantage of the chaos, but now, looking at the silenced Mrs. Sharon, Colin understood that they were still being instigated.
Moreover, this person is unwilling to reveal his identity.
This is a bit interesting.
Colin rubbed his chin, lost in thought.
It seems that this time besides the Eastern Realm, there is another force that wants to cause chaos in the Half-Elf Kingdom.
Who is the one
…
The back garden of the palace.
Queen Aisha was wearing a loose white robe, holding Sylph who was still asleep, and strolling on the evergreen grass lawn.
Her clear and charming face shone with happiness, her amber eyes were full of tenderness, and she was always watching the baby girl in her arms.
The soft sunlight in late autumn shone on their mother and daughter, as if rippling with a holy halo.
Behind Aisha, there are two little tails—Prince Harrison and Princess Judy.
The two followed Aisha step by step, looked at the little life in her arms curiously, whispered a few words from time to time, and then hid their mouths and laughed, not knowing what they were discussing.
Hearing Colin's footsteps, Aisha stopped, turned her head and smiled sweetly at her lover, her voice was clear and soft: "You came at the wrong time, the little guy just fell asleep."
Colin stepped forward, grabbed Aisha's waist, and asked, "Why did you get out of bed? Didn't I ask you to rest for a while?"
Aisha leaned her body into Colin's arms and said with a smile, "It's uncomfortable to lie down all the time, and I'm in good health, so it's no problem to get up and move around."
Colin also knew that Aisha's physical fitness was not comparable to that of ordinary mothers, so he stopped persuading her and lowered his head to kiss the delicate face of the little guy in her arms.
"Hmph! Teacher, you are really not afraid that the whole world will know that Sylph is your illegitimate daughter!" Princess Judy seemed to be overwhelmed, and couldn't help moaning.
Colin glanced at Judy with a smile, and asked, "What about your father? Do you know how many illegitimate daughters he has?"
Princess Judy stopped talking immediately, puffing her cheeks and getting angry.
Even someone like Ke Lin who is not familiar with the aristocratic circle of the imperial capital knows that the illegitimate children of Emperor Reinhardt have spread all over the imperial capital, and some people even joked about it—
Emperor Reinhardt didn't have to worry about the issue of heirs. In case something happened to his direct children, he could choose one of the many illegitimate children to adopt.
Colin sometimes couldn't help but wonder if it was because of this that Emperor Reinhard was willing to send both Harrison and Judy to him, and he didn't worry about both of them having an accident.
"Father has 9 illegitimate children and 7 illegitimate daughters..." A childish voice sounded weakly.
Colin turned his head in surprise, looked at Prince Harrison, and said with a smile, "You know so clearly?"
Prince Harrison nodded solemnly: "Yes, even if it is an illegitimate child of the father, there are clear records in the royal family."
Ke Lin suddenly became interested and asked: "Then how did you confirm that the child is Emperor Reinhardt? After all, I heard that your father's lovers are all married women!"
"Every lover of my father will be placed in a specific manor during the period of being favored, and will not have contact with their husbands..."
"Your father is really a fastidious person." Colin laughed.
But then, he immediately realized that Emperor Reinhardt was deliberately sowing his own seeds
With such a strict and perfect security system, and detailed records of the situation of each illegitimate child, was Emperor Reinhard's behavior of "lover in the capital" purely for fun, or did he have other plans
Reminiscent of the Morrison family, the golden-tailed butterflies in the north, Colin suddenly felt that Emperor Reinhardt was secretly doing some kind of blood experiment under the guise of messing around with his lover, right
Thinking of this, Colin said to Prince Harrison: "Harrison, do you still remember the details of your father's illegitimate children?"
Prince Harrison scratched his head, a little embarrassed: "I only remember part of it..."
"Then trouble you to write down the information you remember, I want to see it. These shouldn't be confidential things, right?"
"Of course not. I'll write it right away, and I'll show it to you when I'm done." Prince Harrison nodded, and then ran away in a hurry as if he had received some important mission.
"What about me, what about me? Do I have any tasks?" The remaining Princess Judy felt that she was being left out, and shouted unconvinced.
"You..." Colin rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "help me design an amusement park."
"amusement park?"
"Yes, this is an amusement park for Silph. Please help design it. It will be based on the adventure stories of heroes I have told you, combining exploration, maze, puzzle solving, treasure hunting and other elements. Build several clearance mini-games.
If you design well, I can call craftsmen to cooperate with you to build this amusement park... "
"Okay! Okay! I'll design, I'll design!" Princess Judy was so excited that she clapped her hands and yelled loudly, until the little guy in Aisha's arms was awakened, and then she stuck out her cute tongue, and quickly ran away.
Aisha patted Silfe on the back lightly, and waited for her to fall asleep again before saying to Colin:
"Okay, you send them both away, do you have anything to tell me?"
Colin restrained his smile, held Aisha's soft jade hand, and said in a deep voice:
"Mrs. Sharon is dead."
