Chapter 132 Treason?
After hearing Jiang Wan's words, Bai Hao did not refute, but coughed lightly and lowered his head.
This is indeed their speculation, but there is no evidence yet.
After Yin Yi pondered for a moment, he shook his head and denied their guess: "No, it shouldn't be Marshal Karl."
Seeing how confident he was, Bai Hao asked curiously, "Why are you so sure? Although we haven't found any evidence, based on his performance, he is the most likely person."
Yin Yi shook his head again: "It can't be him. After the intelligence from the border was sent back, he immediately ordered me to lead the troops to set off. When we were at the border, although the people of the Mifa Empire were strange, Mo Fu did not behave abnormally. After discovering the tricks of the Mifa Empire, it was he who proposed to send troops to teach the Mifa Empire a severe lesson.
He has been with me from beginning to end. If we want to take action, wouldn't it be more convenient on the battlefield?"
Mov is on Carl's side and can be considered his confidant.
"If they think they can get rid of you on the battlefield, we will immediately guess that it was them who did it. Besides, there are people from the Mifa Empire watching closely. If anything happens to you, the Mifa Empire will definitely attack you immediately."
Bai Hao somewhat disagreed with Yin Yi's opinion.
"will not."
Yin Yi still insisted on his own opinion. He had a very high opinion of Mov. Although the two belonged to different camps, after all, they both started as soldiers on the battlefield and climbed up step by step.
Although the two of them don't have much in common on the surface, they actually have a very good relationship in private, so Yin Yi absolutely doesn't believe that his good friend would betray him.
"I now suspect that someone has colluded with the Mifa Empire. The people of the Mifa Empire know exactly where I am going. That's why they were able to attack me in time and hold me back when I decided to leave the border."
"what?"
Bai Hao and Bai Jue were shocked, "There are people in the army who are traitors?!"
Yin Yi nodded solemnly.
The three of them were silent. Yin Yi was wondering who was behind the incident, while Bai Hao and Bai Jue were still digesting the news they had just heard.
The orcs of the Mingxi Empire have been taught to be patriotic since childhood, and especially after entering military school, these two words have been engraved into their bones.
Every time they participated in a war, they were prepared to sacrifice, fearless, and even felt proud to sacrifice themselves to protect the country.
Now, when they suddenly heard that there was someone committing treason in the army, their first reaction was disbelief, but the person who told this story was Yin Yi.
Without absolute certainty, Yin Yi would never say such a thing, so...
Bai Hao raised his head and looked at Yin Yi: "Have you found out anything?"
Yin Yi looked up at him and said, "I did find some information before leaving the border, but when the warship exploded, I didn't have time to store the information into my space ring, so it's gone now."
"who is it?!"
Bai Hao clenched his fists and leaned forward, as if as long as Yin Yi told him who it was, he would immediately rush over and tear that person to pieces.
"I haven't found out who it is yet, but all the clues point to the Hou family."
"Hou family?"
Yin Yi nodded.
Bai Hao was shocked when he got the definite answer, and then he was even more confused.
"What is the Hou family going to do?"
"We don't know yet. Although the clues point to the Hou family, it is not clear who in the Hou family is involved. Is it Hou Fu, or Hou Fang, or maybe both of them are involved? I don't know yet."
Yin Yi thought of something else he had investigated, and a dark tide surged in his amber eyes.
It seems that after returning to the Imperial Star, there are many things that need to be checked carefully.
"Are they crazy?"
Bai Hao didn't understand. The Hou family was the maternal family of the current queen. They were originally just a third-rate aristocratic family. They got an invitation letter by taking shortcuts and attended a party held by the House of Parliament. Somehow, the orc in their family caught the eye of His Majesty and was married to be the queen.
The Hou family also rose in status, from a third-rate noble family to a first-rate noble family. Unfortunately, none of the orcs in their family were capable, and their fighting ability was not good enough. They could not even enter the gate of the military department. They could only rely on the queen's relationship to get a nominal and idle position in the Military and Political Department.
If the Hou family really committed treason, how did they bribe the soldiers around Yin Yi?
What's more, the Seventh Prince Heiyu has an ancestral look, and his beast form is the most mysterious black. He has been favored by His Majesty since he was a child. Coupled with the marriage with the Ryan family, it can be said that his succession to the throne is a foregone conclusion.
At most, His Majesty will abdicate in another hundred years. At that time, the Seventh Prince will succeed to the throne. If their Hou family can produce a few more capable younger generations, their status will definitely be further elevated.
With such a great advantage, why would they want to collude with the Mifa Empire?
Bai Hao couldn't figure it out.
Yin Yi thought of someone: "What if the person who colluded with Mi Fa was neither Hou Fang nor Hou Fu?"
"what?"
Bai Hao felt that his brain could no longer keep up with his cousin.
Bai Jue, who was standing nearby, seemed to have guessed who it was. He turned his head and looked at Yin Yi, his eyes full of disbelief.
Jiang Wan listened to their conversation for a long time and more or less guessed something. He looked at Yin Yi in surprise and asked, "You mean... the queen?"
Then he thought it was unlikely, "But why? She is now the queen, the highest-ranking orc in the entire Mingxi Empire, and her child is very likely to be the next heir to the throne. What reason does she have to betray her country and collude with other countries?"
This is not like what is written in those ancient novels, where the queen is not favored and her child is not the heir to the throne. In order to fight for the throne for her child, she colludes with other countries and wants to kill the emperor and other competitors so that her son can ascend the throne.
The current emperor's favorite son is obviously the ugly Seventh Prince. Although Jiang Wan doesn't understand why the Seventh Prince, who is obviously not good at either literature or martial arts, can become the heir to the throne with just an ugly face that is a throwback to his ancient ways and a black beast shape.
Perhaps it is some strange rule unique to their Mingxi Empire.
However, with such a huge advantage, is the queen crazy or something wrong that she wants to collude with other countries? Isn't she afraid of inviting a wolf into the house?
After all, whether in history or in novels, no such person can succeed in the end, and their final end is very, very miserable.
