The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 274: The Crow’s Plot

Ding~

Suddenly a crisp sound was heard from the door, and the servants in the kitchen looked in the direction of the source of the sound.

I saw a middle-aged man with a kind smile, neat clothes, black hair and black eyes walking in calmly. His calm and majestic air made the servants begin to guess his identity.

He held a silver coin between his right fingers.

At this moment, the silver coin was flying rapidly between his fingers.

"Excuse me."

The middle-aged man suddenly stopped a passing servant and asked in a low voice: "How to get to the basement?"

As he spoke, half of the silver pocket watch slipped silently from his wide cuffs.

Seeing the familiar three-eyed crow logo, the servant's pupils suddenly shrank, and the middle-aged man's eyes became a little fearful, and he did not dare to look at him.

"Go straight ahead from here...then turn left and you will see it."

With that said, the servant quickly saluted the black-haired middle-aged man and excused himself.

Annan in "David form" looked at his back thoughtfully.

That’s it.

Is this how Noah viewed the crow family?

These servants are just afraid and jealous of this "man related to crows"... But if it is those nobles, officials and extraordinary beings, it may not be so simple.

But this is normal.

Look back at the composition of Noah's royal family.

Henry VIII had nine children in total...five daughters and four sons.

But five years later, only three remained.

A eldest princess who is active in the court, actively interferes in the political situation, and is ready to ascend the throne at any time; a princess who plans to kill his father and brothers and sisters, fearing that he will pull out the sword and gain the power of Yongsi The twenty-five-year-old boy; a lazy guy who doesn't do anything and doesn't care about fishing every day... and six dead ghosts who have already burped.

Considering that the proportion of children with problems is close to 100%, it is obviously expected that all the servants working in the royal family are disloyal and unruly...

...No, that's not quite right.

This seems to be the job of the Crow Family?

As the chief intelligence officer, Count Geraint controls the special intelligence agency "One-Eyed Crow". The main mission, in addition to collecting intelligence for the king from all parts of the kingdom, is to monitor, investigate, and arrest suspicious nobles of the royal capital.

Annan suddenly fell into deep thought.

Is the Geraint family too loyal... or too incompetent?

As long as they spare some of their manpower, they can use their power to collect evil names, compile evidence, and even directly fabricate evidence to frame and attack political opponents.

But they didn't do that.

Why is this...

Judging from the servant’s unabashed fear, I’m afraid it’s not because of the latter.

Annan paused for a moment, then continued walking toward the basement calmly.

He suddenly figured it out:

——This is probably Count Geraint’s plan.

Despite the current constraints of the Geraint family in the capital, it seems that every heir must be an enemy of the crow... But as long as they persist until the victory of one of their forces is clear, they will immediately turn around and fight. Good Count Geraint.

Even the third prince, who was intent on killing his father and killing the king, tried his best to contact Ferdinand and tried to promise him benefits directly through Fufu, just to win over someone from the Crow family.

Because of the intelligence support from the Crow Family, it is necessary for the new king who has just ascended the throne.

Then, Count Geraint is currently repeatedly emphasizing that he is unbiased and only loyal to the king. I am afraid it is not because of loyalty.

His plan is simple.

——Raise the bandits to respect themselves.

Four-head betting.

Henry VIII is dying of old age and they must find the next generation of rulers. But this generation of Count Geraint is not active enough...or it can be said to be too cautious.

He did not interfere or promote in any way the birth of the new king.

Judging from the fact that Benjamin was already aware of the third prince's rebellion and even knew about his assassination plan... Benjamin should be a member of the "One-Eyed Crow".

They know everything but do nothing.

In this internal fight in the royal family, all the heirs can realize what will happen to them if they lack the power of the Geraint family... Losing local intelligence sources is like being blind; in the assassin , especially in front of extraordinary assassins, they are completely unable to protect themselves; they cannot know other people's true attitudes towards themselves, so they are easily deceived and trapped in conspiracy; even their thinking may be controlled by others.

These are things that the One-Eyed Crow can detect, prevent, or even completely block.

They can do it, but they don't have to.

They have a good reason - to remain neutral.

No matter who the final winner is, after experiencing a period of time without the protection of the One-Eyed Crow... they must try to make good friends with the Geraint family after taking over.

It is impossible for them to betray Count Geraint and eliminate his position as intelligence chief at this time. He even wants to take his power a step further... to gain their support.

In this way, their throne can be secure.

In other words, no matter who the new king is - after they sit on the throne, they are kidnapped instead.

They must pay Count Geraint to his satisfaction.

Otherwise, Count Geraint can use a higher asking price to ask for it from the loser.

...What is this?

Is the Praetorian Guard inheritance law?

Annan suddenly felt a little wary of Count Geraint.

He now began to doubt the information he had first received - that Count Geraint had sent Don Juan out in order to get him away from the center of the struggle.

The purpose of all this is to make the third prince think that he has killed Don Juan. But the reason behind this, Annan can't guess yet...

Count Geraint, but he only has three children in total!

In order to lure the third prince to the bait...he even put his youngest son at risk.

As for Count Geraint, it is impossible not to know that his eldest son has surrendered to the third prince.

"...Three-head bets?"

Annan narrowed his eyes slightly: "Use the identity of Don Juan to fake death~IndoMTL.com~ to enhance the identity of Ferdinand..."

In case the third prince is the one who finally succeeds, the Geraint family can continue.

Is it just to achieve this goal that he let the heirs fight each other until there are only three left?

——No, that’s not right.

He even bet on four heads.

To this day, the Geraint family is still loyal to the king... If the king finally accepts Fufu's request and completes the immortality ceremony. Then their status will still not change in any way.

Annan was thinking rapidly.

This information may be able to save his life when he comes to the royal capital a few months later.

Now there is only one unclear point.

He has three sons, which correspond to the three royal heirs, and he himself corresponds to the king...

So, Don Juan Geraint...who is he assisting?

Annan suddenly paused.

Many images of himself, Prince Albert, Kafni, Roseburg, Fu Fu, and Sir Silver suddenly flashed through his mind...

Did he include me in his plan?

Benjamin knows so much.

If he was a member of the One-Eyed Crow, then Earl Benjamin would have known that he was impersonating Annan.

Unless his purpose is to let Don Juan fake his death and escape...

Then let me be the one to help Prince Albert ascend the throne for Annan?

So, what is Don Juan doing?
