The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 412: The ultimate winner?
Text Chapter 412 The ultimate profiteer?
"If you are prepared in advance."
Victor thought for a moment and then quickly replied: "Even ordinary people... can survive with only one head."
"What is the specific method? How long can you live?"
Annan asked.
Victor paused: "You mean, His Highness Philip is not dead?"
"He can't die."
Annan shook his head.
He has made a deal with the Tragedian... He is destined to die in a great tragedy as a sacrifice to please the Tragedian.
To call this scene a "grand tragedy" would be too crude. Annan is more willing to believe in the possibility that Philip is not dead yet than in the possibility that the tragedy writer hastily ended the story.
Annan frowned slightly, opened the curtains and looked out the window.
The news of Philip's assassination apparently had not spread yet.
Although the density of people outside has more than doubled, the pace of people coming and going has also obviously accelerated a lot, no longer so leisurely, but much more nervous and serious.
But Annan didn't see much panic or uneasiness on their faces. At most, they were just a little nervous, or they felt a little sleepy because they were woken up before they woke up and had been working until now.
The only possibility is that although they are looking for the "murderer", they don't even know what the murderer has done.
This is mainly to prevent the news from leaking out.
Suppose that when the Duke of Winter comes for a state visit, the second heir to the throne of his family is assassinated... If this kind of thing is leaked, it will be very bad.
Because this is very unusual no matter how you think about it.
Once people find that something cannot be explained by their own logic, they will start to conceive of a conspiracy to rationalize it.
The first person to bear the brunt was Grand Duke Annan who came to visit.
This visit will become an "enemy conspiracy" in some people's eyes, and Philip's death will be linked to Annan. The previously discussed policy of reopening treaty ports and resuming normal commercial exchanges between the two countries will also be hindered.
In addition, the eldest princess cannot escape.
Kafni is a whole generation younger than them... Philip and her are siblings, and Philip has been against her since more than ten years ago. It was also during that period that many of their brothers and sisters died due to strange reasons.
It was generally believed at that time that this was probably done by Philip.
Because the eldest princess has great advantages and does not need to do such dirty work, and the only surviving fourth prince is an idler who refused to inherit the throne from the beginning. Then it can only be done by Philip.
Although there is no evidence, this is generally believed.
However, after Philip's "death", such public opinion will inevitably reverse.
No matter whether it was Philip who did it before... as long as Philip dies, people will only doubt the eldest princess.
As for Kafni...she is too young.
She is only fourteen years old, which makes her appear less reliable... but in the face of such a conspiracy, she will be subconsciously excluded.
Ordinary people may be more inclined to the idea that "Annan is the mastermind behind this."
But Noah's upper echelons - especially those nobles at the "guarantor" level - had quietly turned to Philip not long ago. The purpose is naturally the "Fourth Theory of History" in the hands of Philip.
Philip himself is the best spokesperson for the "curative effect" of the Fourth Historiography.
His existence is enough to prove that this great spell does have the extraordinary ability to reincarnate mortals. And the most amazing thing is that he was not even sanctioned by Sir Silver... This means that it is most likely a permitted method of reincarnation.
They won't understand much more. After all, the specific information about great-level curses is weighty knowledge in itself. For ordinary people, they are too heavy and may cause people to fall into nightmares that are difficult to wake up.
If you look at it from their perspective, the logic of this matter becomes very clear - after Philip reached a deal with them, the eldest princess's original "guarantor" forces chose to switch to Philip.
Coupled with the political opinions advocated by Kafni, she has received support from Noah's military.
All the advantages that the eldest princess had previously no longer exist
But Annan went to Noah this time to re-sign an official trade agreement with Noah... This matter was presided over by the eldest princess Elizabeth. The reopening of shipping means that the ocean exploration industry will also develop, making it easier for the military to re-employ.
In the eyes of those nobles, they may also regard it as an exchange of interests - it was initiated by Princess Annan, who gave this achievement to the eldest princess in exchange for her not treating Kaifuni. Too many attacks.
At the same time, when Annan signed the trade agreement, Philip was killed...then the high-ranking nobles who had betrayed the eldest princess must regroup and choose Kaifuni or Elizabeth; and this It turned out that there was another person who took the blame, and that was Grand Duke Annan.
Because Annan openly took the blame, he could not support Kaifuni publicly. Otherwise, the whole of Noah may riot... This means that Annan almost admitted the crime of "murdering other countries' heirs and supporting the puppet king to come to power." ~IndoMTL.com~ Especially, it was the Principality of Winter—just a principality.
It would be fine if it were a superior Theocracy... But in the eyes of the Noahs, Winter is a country with poor people, barren land, and is much weaker than them. After all, the Winter people who appear in other countries are either hard laborers, mercenaries or killers.
In this way, whether Prince Philip was killed by Annan or not, it means that the eldest princess has lost all her enemies-although Kaifuni must be spared, it doesn't matter.
Anyway, she originally had no offspring, so if she adopts Kaifni as her adopted daughter, everything will be fine.
——So assassinating Philip at this time was undoubtedly a wonderful move that killed three birds with one stone for the eldest princess.
"Noah's nobles... Anyone who knows about my relationship with Kafni will definitely think so. Because when Philip dies like this, the person who benefits the most is the eldest princess Elizabeth."
Annan sneered: "They do everything based on interests, rather than paying attention to decency and tradition like the Winter nobles... They are more like businessmen than landlords. So they will think that something is Whoever benefits the most is related to this matter.
"Because they really do it and are willing to do it.
"As long as they have such an opportunity... they will definitely be able to do it."
It can even be said that if the eldest princess Elizabeth thought of this plan and had the ability to implement it, she would indeed do so.
Compared to the throne... killing her brother, whom she already hated, was not a "choice" for her.
On the contrary, it can be regarded as a "celebration".
