Working Prophet

Chapter 553 Rude Person

"You will become a great monarch." Garth said to the man in the mirror, "Beyond your father, you can do better than him."

After speaking, Garth took the noble hat and cane handed by the maid and strode out the door.

He has made all preparations and can't wait to start a new era.

Garth first left King's Landing Tower through the side door, then walked around to the front, and walked in again surrounded by the Kingsguard, swearing that the castle belonged to him.

As his figure appeared outside the palace, the invited guests applauded and cheered.

Garth's eyes moved around the hall, taking in the expressions on everyone's faces. He paid special attention to his two younger brothers.

Claudio and Allister, standing in front of the crowd, lowered their heads to show their submission after seeing him.

Gals also saw his wife and shed tears of excitement.

Garth smiled at her and looked away, this time his eyes fell on the bone throne at the other end of the hall.

There was a flash of eagerness in his eyes, and then he no longer hesitated and took steps towards there.

Garth still remembered that when he was a child, he and Claudio played in front of that chair. Claudio encouraged him to climb up and take a look. As a result, he was hit by Duren outside the door. He told Edward II and was beaten. .

At that time, Gals didn't actually find this gloomy-looking chair interesting, and it even hurt his buttocks to sit on it.

But now of course he no longer thinks so, and at the same time he understands why he was beaten when he was a child.

This is his seat, which belongs to him alone. No one can touch it until his death, not even his close relatives who share the same bloodline with him.

Gals thought so and walked to the bone throne.

In full view, he sat up.

Time seemed to stand still at this moment, and then the cheers in the hall became more and more enthusiastic.

Gals sat upright on the bone throne, like a young lion, and his every move was full of majesty.

Miss Rabbit also felt an inexplicable sense of oppression. It was not as suffocating as when facing the bear of the earth, but it was more terrifying.

For the first time in her life, the female lord felt the huge changes that power brought to a person's temperament.

When she met Garth just a few days ago, she didn't feel much. The first heir to the empire behaved respectfully in front of her father, giving the impression that he didn't even have any presence.

But now it's like he has become a completely different person.

The eldest member of the Vespasian family is Jerome the Good Luck. He is already 312 years old, his eyesight is dim, his ears are not working properly, and he needed help to walk in the last year.

After only standing for a short while, he began to gasp for breath. Gals was afraid that he would suddenly fall to the ground and die in the middle of the ceremony.

Finance Minister Silen supported him and moved step by step to the stone steps. However, after only a dozen steps, Jerome had not arrived after walking for a while, which made many guests present a little impatient.

Gals also felt that his uncle was moving too slowly, and was thinking about asking someone to help him again.

At this moment, there was a commotion outside the main hall, and then Du Lun, the chief guard of the imperial guards, walked in from the door.

Garth frowned, and said a little displeased, "You're late, Sir Durham."

"Sorry, Your Highness, I've been busy investigating His Majesty's assassination these days."

The words of the captain of the royal guard made Gars feel a little uncomfortable, especially the name Duren called him. Although strictly speaking, as long as Gars has not put on the crown and received the family sword, he is not considered a new member of the empire. emperor.

But he was already sitting on the Bone Throne, and no one called him His Royal Highness anymore.

But today was a good day for his coronation, and Garth couldn't get upset over such a trivial matter, so he just nodded and said, "Then you can find a place to stay."

However, upon hearing his words, Du Lun did not step back, but took two steps forward.

"Your Highness, I have something urgent to report."

Gals almost blurted out, if there is anything more important than my coronation today, don't you wink?

But in the end, he held back and said coldly, "Wait a minute."

"I didn't intend to interrupt your ceremony, it's just that this matter is really urgent, and I must speak now." Duren continued.

Gals' face darkened.

At the same time, the other guests around also smelled something unusual.

"Guards, drive this impolite man out of my castle!"

Gals decided not to talk nonsense, and directly blasted away the annoying guy in front of him.

However, the guards around him were a little hesitant when they heard the words. Du Lun had been the chief guard of the Royal Forest Guard for decades, and these guards were all his subordinates.

If Gars has become the new emperor, they naturally cannot disobey Gars's orders, but the coronation ceremony has not yet been completed, and Duren has not resigned from his position yet.

Facing the remaining prestige on Du Lun, they didn't know what to do for a while.

Gals was very angry, and made up his mind in his heart that he would replace the imperial guards in the future.

"Your Highness, please listen to what I'm going to say next before chasing me away." Before Gals could answer, Du Lun said in a deep voice, "I have found the murderer who poisoned Your Majesty."

The second half of his sentence caused an uproar.

Although the crowning of the new emperor was what the nobles in the royal capital were most concerned about during this period, the death of Edward II was also not forgotten.

As the only emperor in the empire to be poisoned in hundreds of years, it was obvious that he could not die in such an unknown manner.

Finding the murderer was also something that everyone expected, but most people thought that the investigation would last for a while. They didn't expect that Duren would find the murderer so quickly.

When the captain of the Royal Guard mentioned this matter, Garth had no choice but to chase him away, otherwise it would appear that he only wanted to be the emperor and was indifferent to his father's death, which would damage his reputation.

So Gals could only follow Du Lun's words and ask, "Who is the murderer?"

Du Lun did not answer immediately, but just said, "After I started the investigation, I first interrogated His Majesty's sommelier Wade, but he was not responsible for the poison, and he was very sure that he did not see any suspicious people around that day. .

"It wasn't just him, many people in the stands at the time could testify that they didn't see any strange people approaching the jug."

"Tell me the important point." Garth was a little impatient.

Duren raised his head and said, "This means that the poison must have been administered by someone close to His Majesty. It is impossible for Walder to hold the wine in his hand all the time. In fact, the pot of wine was placed on the table next to him most of the time.

"Ward's eyes will not always be on the jug. He will only become alert when someone who feels threatened approaches the jug."
