Chapter 39 Princess
Looking at Kaili in front of him, Chen Heng understood everything in his heart, but with a faint smile on his face, he said calmly: "So, why did these people come here to assassinate you?"
"I have no idea."
A gloomy look appeared on Kaili's face. "These assassins are not high-ranking officials. They are just the ones who did it. I don't know what happened or who hired them."
"And on that day, they all committed suicide in various ways."
When he said this, his face turned pale and he was obviously in a very bad mood about it.
These people are from a killer organization called Touch of Shadow. They come to assassinate at this moment, obviously not because they are bored, but because they are hired by someone.
And when these people died at this moment, this line of inquiry was directly cut off, and there was no way to continue the search.
This is what it means to die without evidence.
It would be easy to deal with if these people came from Kutu. With the power of the Kaili family, they could always find some clues if they wanted to.
But the person who hired them obviously took this into consideration.
Touch of Shadow is a killer organization from abroad. It is very powerful and well-known for its strict confidentiality. It is impossible for them to sell out the employer just because of the power of the Kerry family.
So in the end, Kyrie could only guess.
In front of Chen Heng, he guessed several possible targets and then left with a grim face.
Of course, before leaving, in order to thank Chen Heng for his previous assistance, he also brought a lot of gifts, and even negotiated several business deals with Chen Heng with extremely favorable conditions.
Chen Heng did not refuse but accepted it directly.
And at this moment, in the inner city of Kutu City, inside the palace.
In a magnificent hall, it seems extremely quiet inside.
This is a very spacious place, but there are not many people around, so it seems very deserted.
A woman sat alone in the center of the hall, handling various matters.
The pale golden sunlight shone through the windowsills on all sides and onto the woman, making her beautiful figure and snow-white skin look extremely attractive.
She didn't look too old, only about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, very beautiful, wearing a light short robe, just sitting there, thinking.
At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps came from outside, accompanied by an inexplicable sound of chaos.
Aoliman couldn't help but frowned, looking at the person walking towards her from a distance and said softly, "Is Vinar trying to sneak out again?"
"yes."
Not far away, a servant was half-kneeling on the ground, his face looking very respectful: "This is the third time in the past half month."
"snort."
Oriman snorted coldly: "You sneaked out without telling me, and being assassinated once was not enough, you even wanted to sneak out a second time."
"Is she tired of living?"
Below, the maid half-knelt on the ground, listening to Orliman's words, not daring to say a word.
On the spot, Oliman pinched his brows, then sighed and said, "Tell me, why does she want to sneak out so frequently? What does she want to do?"
"Also tell me what happened that day."
She pinched her brows and spoke tiredly.
"yes."
The maid below nodded, then spoke softly, narrating what had happened at the banquet that day.
Listening slowly, Oliman couldn't help but frowned: "Wait."
"Are you sure that it was Vinal who took the initiative to invite others to dance that night?"
"yes."
Below, the maid nodded.
"And that person happened to save Vinal?"
Olliman continued.
After receiving an affirmative reply, Oriman suddenly understood something .
"The boring routine of the knight saving the princess."
She shook her head secretly, and then began to think subconsciously.
This happened quite by chance.
Vinal is her sister and a princess of the Kutu royal family, and there are too many people who have reasons to be against her.
But, just as Vinar slipped out, someone came to assassinate him?
Is there something wrong with Kaili?
Moreover, it was a coincidence that Vinar was rescued by that person when he was assassinated.
Was it premeditated?
In an instant, Oliman thought of a lot of things.
Compared to Vinal, she is much older and has seen much more.
Born in a royal environment, she subconsciously doubted everything and instinctively doubted everything.
"Who is that Kailin?"
Then she continued to ask for information about Chen Heng.
Below, in response to Orliman's question, the maid looked respectful and spoke silently.
From her, Oliman also got a general idea of Chen Heng's past.
"It sounds good."
Listening to Chen Heng's past deeds, Orliman's expression eased a little, and he nodded at this time: "He was born into a southern noble family, his family's power is not very large, and he is a student of Coribo. He has good talent and is expected to become a knight..."
She nodded secretly: "If there is no problem, it will be a good match for Venal."
As a royal princess, Vinar was born too late, and she has an older biological sister, Orliman.
This meant that she had little chance of succession to the royal family, and no one would think of supporting her.
However, given Princess Vinar's identity, if she were to marry some of the country's great nobles, some problems would easily arise.
Her identity is there, a royal princess. Under the current situation, it is too easy for her to become an excuse for others to take advantage of her.
Therefore, in Orliman's opinion, the best destination for Vinar is to marry a descendant of aristocracy whose family is not powerful but who possesses extraordinary abilities.
A knight from a minor southern noble family, he is the perfect fit.
Of course, although it seems suitable to Oliman, the specifics still need to be carefully considered.
"How is the Knight Cailin in other aspects?"
While thinking, she knocked on the table subconsciously, and then said: "Is there any dispute? For example, some inexplicable fiancée or something like that?"
As nobles, in order to strengthen the power of their own families, many families would arrange marriages for their heirs when they were still young in order to gain support from other families.
Apart from that, given the chaotic state of the aristocratic circle, things like maids and mistresses are also a mess.
Influenced by her mother, Oliman herself had several lovers.
As for the man her sister likes, she doesn't mind who he has been involved with in the past, but he absolutely cannot have a fiancée or something like that, otherwise it would be too troublesome to deal with.
However, the answer she heard next made her a little surprised.
