Chapter 43: Movie King Lear "What did you say?" Morrie said angrily. "You said that the pagan gods I communicated with possessed dual laws. Do you think that either arcane or war is pagan?" Li Er said slowly, "And you said I imprisoned the princess. Her Royal Highness was originally my fiancée. I could marry her to Stuart openly. Why did I imprison her?" Morrie opened his mouth, but was rendered speechless by what Lear said. Ophelia watched from the side and shook her head. "Morrie, Mr. Lear can't be what the newspapers say. That must be slander, just like the articles that slandered me." She recalled the rumors that she had been framed, and couldn't help but feel a sense of sympathy for Lear; they were both victims. Li Er glanced at Mori and said nothing more. The three of them walked towards the palace together. When he arrived at the hall, many nobles were already there, and they all looked at Lear with strange eyes. Lear stepped forward and said before Rosser could speak: "Your Majesty, is Milia really missing?" His expression was somewhat gloomy, more like a question.
Rosser was stunned for a moment, then looked at Li Er with deep eyes, "Millia is indeed missing." "Millia is missing, why didn't you do anything? I didn't even see you send out soldiers to search!" Lear's voice suddenly became louder and he said angrily. The nobles around looked at each other in surprise. Lear actually dared to speak to the king in such an attitude, which was extremely disrespectful. Facing Lear's repeated questioning, Rosser's expression looked a little ugly. Seeing Lear's abnormal look, he roughly guessed what the other party wanted to do. Lear probably wanted to express his anger and his concern for Millia with this attitude. How could it be possible that he had such real anger and the newspapers also said that Lear imprisoned the princess? This way he could get away with it and clear Lear of the suspicion that he actually imprisoned Millia. Looking at Lear's expression of anger, which showed no falseness at all, Rosser admitted that this method was clever, but doesn't my king have any face? He really wanted to expose Lear's hypocrisy directly, but... he gave up in the end. After all, his daughter was still in the other party's hands. Swallowing the dissatisfaction in his heart, Rosser said in a deep voice: "It's not that I didn't show it. Milia has always been a very independent child. She often goes out to play with the guards. I give her a lot of freedom and let her enter and leave the palace freely. Sometimes she goes to some remote places with the protection of high-level guards. I am not worried. But this time, she didn't come back, and I realized something was wrong." He explained, but the explanation seemed very stiff, and the expressions of the nobles present became strange. The king had always been very fond of Princess Millia, but now it seemed that perhaps it was all fake? Feeling the strange looks from the nobles, Rosser was very angry, but he still had to remain rational. Hearing Rosser's words, Lear smiled secretly. It was just as he thought. The king had no choice but to cooperate with him. Millia is the holder of the heresy law, and Rosser knows it from the queen's attitude. As long as the king does not want his daughter to be tried by the Golden Church, he can only help Lear conceal it. I just wonder if the king knows that he is also a heretic? Lear suddenly thought of a question. He pretended to think, as if he agreed with Rosser's explanation, and sighed, "Your Majesty, Milia is my fiancée. She is missing. I am very worried. Please forgive my rudeness. I want to know, do you have any clues about Milia's disappearance?" When Rosser heard this, his expression eased. He looked at Ophelia on the side and said in a speculative tone: "Millia left before Her Excellency the Saint came. She might have been met with corrupt believers. I have ordered the royal guards to search!" "Your Majesty, are you saying that Princess Milia might have been kidnapped by a corrupt sect?" Ophelia asked hurriedly. "Yes, Saint." Rose replied. Ophinina didn't know that the king and Lear were just acting, and her expression became a little ugly when she heard that Miria might have been captured by the corrupt sect. She knew that the corrupt sect would capture pure girls as the carriers of the corrupt disease. If this was the case, Princess Milia would be in great danger. Ophianina subconsciously glanced at Lear, and seeing his worried expression, she decided not to tell Lear the news, so as not to make him even more sad.
The fiancée I just won in a duel not long ago is gone now. It's very depressing. She looked up at the king, "If it was done by the corrupt sect, our Golden Church will do its utmost to help search for the princess's whereabouts!" As she said this, she glanced at Lear. This was the only thing she could do. "Thank you, Your Excellency the Saint." Rosser nodded. The princess's case had basically been determined, and the nobles who had come to understand the situation began to leave. They looked at Lear with some pity. What would be the fate of him if he was caught by a pagan? It has been written in many materials that the princess may never come back. The others also had a new opinion of King Rosser. They thought that his previous attitude of doting on the princess was probably just an act. He said that he gave the princess a lot of freedom, but didn't that mean he didn't care? Ophinina sighed and patted Lear's shoulder before leaving, as if to comfort him. When everyone left, only Lear and Rosser were left. The atmosphere became dull for a while, and Rosser said with a fake smile: "You little brat, do you know how much impact your self-willed actions will have on the dignity of the royal family?" Li Er smiled awkwardly, "Your Majesty, I have no choice. You know what will happen once Miria's affair with me is confirmed, right?" "The Golden Church will find Milia. You don't want your daughter to be taken away by the Golden Church, right?" Rosser glared, "Then you can't tease me like this! After those nobles leave, they will definitely say that my previous attitude towards Miria was just an act!" Lear shrugged and said seriously: "Your Majesty, sometimes some sacrifices are necessary!" Rose shook his head helplessly. At this time, Queen Philia came out from the back of the hall. Seeing the two bickering, she smiled and said, "You two are really good at acting. Those nobles and saints were all fooled by you." Rosser looked at his queen. Millia was their child. He really doted on Millia and was even willing to go against his heart and team up with Lear to deceive the Golden Saint. Lear couldn't stand the King and Queen flirting with each other, so he asked, "Your Majesty, do you have any clues about who published the content in the newspaper?" Rosser raised his head. "I asked the soldiers to go to the Daily Morning News and ask him. He was also a man who covered his face. He spent ten gold coins and asked the newspaper to publish those articles. It should be the same person as last time. He is probably a member of the corrupt sect." "I just don't know why they would target you?" Listening to the king's words, Lear's expression looked a little strange. It was indeed him who had discredited the saint before, but was he going to discredit himself? (End of this chapter)
