    Chapter 51 The Truth

    This night is destined to be a night where many people cannot sleep peacefully.  Leaving aside Jun An and Artest who stayed up all night discussing how to deal with it tomorrow, Cruise, who returned to guard the palace, was dazed in the courtyard with a cup of coffee. He didn't feel sleepy at all until the stars began to set.  Several attendants stood at a distance, yawning involuntarily, but when they saw the slowly walking figure, they immediately showed cautious expressions and quickly exited the courtyard.

    "Who!" Hearing the footsteps behind him, Cruise immediately turned his head.  But when he saw the visitor's face clearly, he breathed a sigh of relief and smiled slightly.  But only His Highness knew in his heart that there might only be a hint or two of truth in this smile, but more of a sense of disgust and rejection.

    "What's the matter? You don't seem to be in a good mood?" As the beloved concubine of Emperor Arthur, the widow Lady Nancy is naturally dressed in plain clothes, but at this moment under the moonlight, she does not look as cheerful as she does in public.  Sad, but with a touch of charm.  Glancing at Cruise with a fleeting eye, she suddenly stretched out her jade arms, gently hugged Cruise's shoulders, and said softly: "Okay, you will become the emperor in a few days, so what's the matter?  Something you can¡¯t think of?¡±

    "That's enough, be careful of people around you." Seemingly frightened by her intimate behavior, Cruise took a few steps back to avoid her and shouted in a deep voice.  Perhaps realizing that his tone was a bit excessive, he immediately changed his tone and whispered: "It's so late, haven't you rested yet?"

    "I would like to rest, but no one is with me." Nancy pursed her lips and smiled, her expression full of temptation, "My dear, what did Mr. An say to you that made you look depressed from just now to now. Could it be that  , does he plan to support your two younger brothers who are unwilling to surrender?"

    "If that were the case, I wouldn't be so troubled." Although he was reluctant to say anything more, Cruise still wanted to find someone to share his secrets with, so after thinking for a moment, he still murmured slightly, "An Ruoran  He made a suggestion and said that he would invite several princes to come to the palace tomorrow and then show everyone the real reason for his father's death in person."

    "I don't think it's anything, so there's nothing to be embarrassed about." Nancy smiled and replied nonchalantly, "Then just let them come. Doesn't this just provide you with an opportunity to catch them all? Jun?"  It is impossible for An and Artest to enter the palace with a large army. At that time, as long as you"

    "I'm afraid this won't work. The nobles and officials are watching." Cruise seemed to have already considered this method, so after hearing Nancy's suggestion, he immediately shook his head slightly and said, "What I want  It¡¯s the empire, not the lives of my two younger brothers. If I really do that, I¡¯m afraid everyone will think that I killed my father. Once the people¡¯s hearts are lost because of this, the consequences will be unimaginable.¡±

    "The question is, have you ever done this?" Nancy suddenly stopped smiling and raised her head meaningfully.  Cruise was stunned for a moment, and immediately shook his head firmly, but then, he suddenly looked at the other party as if he had some realization, and said in a trembling voice: "Wait, maybe I should ask you this question, Father, his  Could the mysterious death be because of"

    "Why do you think so?" Nancy shrugged nonchalantly and replied lightly.  But Cruise obviously didn't believe her words. He suddenly reached out quickly and grabbed her shoulders tightly, saying in a deep voice: "Are you sure? I want you to look into my eyes and swear on our future that you are really not like this."  Have you ever done that?¡±

    This time, Nancy did not speak immediately, but fell into a long silence.  It wasn't until a few minutes later that she sighed with mixed emotions, but did not swear.  Cruise's face suddenly turned pale. He grabbed Nancy's shoulders with his fingers, and at the same time tremblingly whispered: "Damn, is it really you? I have always felt strange, why are the three of us so different?"  Without any proper reason, my father would suddenly die suddenly Damn it, you killed me this time!"

    Considering the surrounding environment, Cruise did not dare to make too much noise, but the rage in his tone could not be concealed no matter what.  It seemed that she was hurt by his scratching. Nancy couldn't help but whispered, and reluctantly comforted: "Don't, don't worry, no one will find out the poison I gave. Do you really believe that An Ruoran will find out what happened?"  The truth?"

    "I don't believe it, but who can guarantee that there are no mistakes?" Cruise slowly released his palm and said with a gloomy face, "Very good, do I want to thank you for your help? In this way, I, who had a clear conscience, really  Forced into a corner! Damn it, is this how you plan to help me?"

    "What can I do?" Nancy suddenly shouted, also with an angry tone, "Although the old immortal is in a coma, he can still hear our whispers. Do you plan to wait until he recovers a little?  , issue an order to put us to death together, are you willing to face it???This situation?  "

    "What?" Cruise was startled, and suddenly remembered the whispered conversation he and Nancy had in front of King Arthur's sickbed that day.  Nancy observed him carefully and added in a low voice, "So, I have no choice but to kill him while he is unable to speak. If it were you, wouldn't you do this?"

    "I" Cruise just uttered one word and could not continue.  After being silent for a long time, he finally sighed helplessly and whispered: "I'm sorry, I may have been too rough just now. However, An Ruoran will bring them to the palace tomorrow to investigate the truth. How do you want me to deal with them?"

    "I said, they won't find anything." Nancy gently put her hand on Cruise's shoulder and comforted her softly, "All the guards that day were dead. Who can prove that I did it?  Moreover, the poison I gave to King Arthur was chronic. When I took it to him in the morning, it did not take effect until late at night. Who can say that I did it?"

    This time, Cruise did not push away Nancy, who was clinging to him, but his heart was still full of doubts and uneasiness.  But now that the matter was over, there was nothing he could do to change the facts, and Nancy's comfort made him let go of his worries.  After a long silence, he finally nodded slightly and said: "Okay, then tomorrow we can only insist that we didn't know anything. In addition, about that poison"

    "It's all been destroyed. They won't find any evidence." Nancy gently combed her messy hair and showed a faint smile.  Cruise stared at her, but finally sighed softly, put his hand on her shoulder and said, "This is best, but I want to tell you very seriously, never make decisions without permission again. This is my last warning.  Do you understand?"

    "Of course, I'm just a poor little woman. All I want is love and care." Nancy leaned gently into his arms, as gentle as a virtuous wife.  Cruise shook his head helplessly and looked up at the starry sky above. If possible, he hoped that Mr. An Ruoran would come later, or not come at all

    Cruise¡¯s wish did not come true, and it was even worse than he imagined.  The early morning sun of the next day had just shined into the imperial court. A group of people headed by An Ruoran, Jun An, and Artest had already come to meet at the imperial court, and with them were more than a dozen high-ranking officials.  The nobleman obviously acted as a witness.

    After a brief greeting, Cruise suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and welcomed them into the imperial court.  Because of the death of Emperor Arthur, no one was in the mood to drink coffee or have more conversations. After hurriedly checking a few rooms, everyone hurried to the emperor's palace. If any clues could be found, of course, the scene of the incident  It's the perfect occasion.

    "Mr. An, where are you going to start?" Amidst the chaotic footsteps, everyone pushed open the door that had been closed for several days and slowly walked into the palace that once symbolized authority.  Looking at An Ruoran standing in the room as if nothing had happened, Cruz, who felt a little uneasy, took a few steps forward and asked in a low voice.

    In fact, this is a question that Jun An, Artest and more than a dozen nobles want to ask.  You know, since the sudden death of King Arthur, this palace has been searched no less than twenty times, and even the gaps in the corners have been carefully inspected, but nothing has been found.  In addition, because of Emperor Arthur's poisoning symptoms, the entire royal court was carefully searched, but no suspicious places hiding poison were found.

    "Search? It doesn't need to be that troublesome. I just need a few high-quality magic crystals. The higher the quality, the better." An Ruoran smiled, turned around and gave instructions casually.  Cruise was slightly startled, but he immediately ordered several attendants to collect high-quality magic crystals from the treasury. Looking at An Ruoran's confident expression, he suddenly felt a little uneasy. Could it be that a perfect thing would really happen?  Was this exposed?

    But he had no chance to regret it, because Mrs. Nancy, dressed in plain clothes, had slowly walked into the palace.  She looked at Cruise with that meaningful gaze, then turned to stare at An Ruoran, and said with grief and anger: "Mr. An, you must help us find the murderer. If you need any help,  Just ask!"

    "Of course, this is also my wish." An Ruoran smiled and said nothing more.  In fact, he was very curious about the relationship between Mrs. Nancy and Cruise. Is it possible that these lovers who seemed to have an affair cooperated to kill Emperor Arthur in the palace after discovering the truth?  middle¡­¡­
