Chapter 478 Kailan: My father is dead? (Happy)

Entering the side room of the palace with Luld, "Kyle" looked around and saw that there was indeed no one around. A satisfied smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Lud turned around and asked hurriedly, "Kyle, my son, what is the urgent matter?"

"It's an important matter..."

"Kyle" took two steps forward and put his mouth close to Luld's ear, and Luld cooperated by leaning his head over.

"The important thing is..."

Kyle whispered, "Replacing you, 'Father'."

"Pfft-"

Before Luld could react at first, he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen the next moment.

He lowered his head stiffly and saw a sharp sword had pierced his abdomen.

His throat felt sweet, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. Luld looked at Kyle holding the sword, and said in disbelief: "Kyle... why..."

"Giggle..."

Unexpectedly, Kyle let out a charming woman's chuckle from his throat: "Old man, you still haven't recognized me, I'm not your son at all."

Lud suddenly widened his eyes, raised his hands and grasped the sword tightly.

"Kyle" did not give Luld any room to resist. He twisted the hilt of the sword, causing Luld to completely lose his strength, and then pulled the sword out of Luld's abdomen.

Seeing Luld lying in a pool of blood without making any sound, "Kyle" smiled and shook his head, then strode out of the side room.

"Your Highness!"

The ministers had no idea that their majesty had died in the side room, and they all saluted "Kyle".

Kyle waved his hand and said, "I have already finished discussing this matter with my father. I have something else to do, so I will leave now."

"Your Highness, walk slowly!"

Before leaving, "Kyle" exchanged a calm glance with Kailan, one of the ministers.

Kailan was immediately overjoyed, but soon hid it.

As "Kyle" left, the ministers remained in the palace without saying a word, waiting for Luld to walk out of the side room.

After an unknown amount of time, the ministers finally sensed something was wrong and got up and went to the side room.

When they approached the side room, they smelled an extremely strong smell of blood and immediately felt something was wrong.

When they opened the door and saw Luld's body in a pool of blood, they all felt like their scalps were about to explode.

"His Highness the eldest prince killed his father!!"

The ministers, in a mess, immediately called the guards, but learned that Kyle had already left on horseback, and their hearts suddenly sank to the bottom.

"Grand Prince...why did His Royal Highness want to kill the king?"

A minister said in disbelief.

The other ministers also shook their heads. They really couldn't imagine that Kyle, who always valued his reputation, would do such a thing.

Besides, what good would such regicide bring to Kyle?

——Could it be that... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has defected to the demon clan?

Thinking of this, the ministers became even more panicked.

Their troops are all on the front line. If Kyle defected to the demons, that group of troops would be doomed!

"That's enough! Calm down!"

At this moment, a loud shout rang out from the crowd.

Kailan strode out with tears in his eyes: "Kyle's murder of his father is a fact. I really can't imagine that he could do such a thing!"

"Your Highness the Second Prince..."

The ministers wanted to comfort him, but they didn't know how to start.

"No need to say more. The most urgent task now is to quickly find someone to take over my father's position and take charge of the overall situation!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the ministers looked at each other in bewilderment.

Without waiting for the ministers to speak, Kailan continued, "Now, put Kyle on the wanted list immediately! Moreover, in my opinion, Kyle must have defected to the demon clan. This matter is closely related to that Ryan. Put these two people on the wanted list together!"

"Your Highness the Second Prince!"

A minister hurriedly said: "We don't have solid evidence yet whether Captain Ryan surrendered to the enemy, so we can't make a final conclusion!"

"No evidence? Humph! These two were at the front line together, and now Kyle comes back alone to kill his father. Could Ryan not know anything about this?"

"This..." The minister was speechless for a moment.

"Also, quickly cut off the food supplies sent to the front line!"

"Your Highness, the Second Prince! This is unacceptable!"

Another minister hurriedly said, "Even if Ryan really betrayed us, we can't be sure that the soldiers under his command have also betrayed us, right? If the food and grass are cut off, what if those soldiers are still fighting bravely on the front line? Wouldn't that kill them?"

"Have you seen any messengers report from the front recently?"

Kailan glared angrily: "In the past few days, there has not been a single report about the battle on the front line! What if all our food and fodder are sent to the demons? Wouldn't that be a waste of time?"

"Who said there are no frontline battle reports recently?"

At this moment, a lazy female voice came from outside the palace.

Everyone turned their heads and saw Fina walking into the palace step by step. "Right now, Ryan and Kyle are both at the front line. They have already invaded the demon territory and are advancing triumphantly. These are the news brought back by my food transport soldiers. Every word is true."

"You fart!"

Kailan turned around and shouted angrily: "If what you said is true, then Kyle has always been at the front line? Then who is the person who just came back to kill my father?"

Fina chuckled: "Who knows? Maybe it was a spy from the demon tribe pretending to be Kyle, with the purpose of causing chaos in the rear?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the ministers' hearts immediately wavered.

Because what Fina said was indeed very likely. After all, Kyle had no reason to kill his father.

"Then how do you explain that no messenger has sent back any battle reports from the front lines so far?"

"Someone intercepted him."

Fina looked at Kailan with a half-smile: "Who is the person who can intercept the messenger on the front line without leaving any clues?"

Kailan's face immediately turned red: "Come here, capture Fina for me! In my opinion, this person has also colluded with the demons. Don't believe what he said about the so-called food transport soldiers just now!

Also, send someone to Ate City immediately to capture all of Fina and Ryan's families!"

"Let's see who dares!"

As soon as Kailan finished speaking, Fina suddenly raised her voice.

At the same time, the sound of armor rubbing against each other suddenly came from outside the palace. The sound was so loud and majestic, and it was totally different from the sound that the soldiers left behind in the imperial capital could make.

A royal guard knight tumbled and crawled into the palace: "A thousand soldiers suddenly appeared outside and surrounded the palace!"

In an instant, the palace became silent and you could hear a pin drop.

Kailan looked grim, staring at Fina: "Haven't you handed over all your private soldiers in At City?"

"Yes." Fina showed a fox-like smile: "But what I handed over were only the private soldiers of At City. Don't forget, I also have a fiefdom called Weifeng."
