Chapter 425: Qiao Ying: "Record a dog-eat-dog drama for you"
Chapter 425
The front entrance of the hospital building downstairs was blocked by some royal family members and media reporters, and soldiers in full gear guarded the main gate firmly.
"It's Chadan Prince."
As Chadan appeared, people moved forward one after another, asking questions in disorder, and the scene suddenly became noisy.
Four days have passed since Lin Cheng's unknown life or death after the engagement banquet car accident. All the people of the country have been waiting for relevant news. Chadan is the only one and the first informant to respond.
Chadan stood in front of everyone and calmed the scene first.
"It's not convenient to disclose too much about Duke Lin's injury to everyone. My father - the King of our C Country, also can't respond to everyone for the time being due to physical reasons."
Chadan reassured everyone first, and then advised everyone to return.
"But we heard that Duke Lin has unfortunately passed away, and even the king had a stroke and was partially paralyzed due to the blow..."
The media reporters were particularly bold, rushing to shove the microphones at Chadan's face, and the questions asked were tricky.
The royal family members present enjoyed this farce.
Chadan did not respond to any of the reporters' questions, including Lin Cheng's death. After saying those few words to the people present and the camera, he turned and went back inside.
Kala, who followed, asked in puzzlement: "Didn't Father tell you elder brother not to bother with them? Elder brother, how can you take matters into your own hands?"
Chadan pointed at the noisy entrance and spoke righteously: “Look at those people outside, can I ignore them? Lin Guli refuses to come forward, Father can’t come forward, if I don’t come forward, should I let you talk to them Kala?”
Kala: "Haven't you thought that originally only those people outside knew about Duke Lin's death. Now the whole country will know!"
What are people across the country supposed to guess when those reporters asked like that? What will these media reporters write when they go back? Even if Duke Lin is not dead, they would have to "speculate him dead"!
Chadan: “First of all, it couldn't have been kept secret for long. Didn't you hear what they said? They even know about Father's stroke."
"There are eyes and ears of the Howard family in this hospital. Even if we want to keep it a secret, the Howard family will not let us have our way."
Kala was speechless for a while, and said again: "Since elder brother you have come forward to deal with it, why didn't you deny Duke Lin's death and Father's stroke to them just now?"
Chadan looked innocent: "I told them at the beginning that Duke Lin was not dead and Father was just uncomfortable."
Kala: "But..."
Chadan: "Didn't you hear what Father said in the ward just now? Now the royal family, I make the decisions."
After saying that, Chadan added coldly: "Go back to take care of Father in the ward, I'm going to get the seal." Then he left from the back door.
Chadan's original intention was to come forward to stabilize the people's hearts, and he thought he did a good job, but instead pushed the entire royal family to the forefront of the storm.
Whether something is a blessing or a disaster, people obviously tend to think more towards the bad side. Is Lin Cheng dead or alive? In people's speculation, he was obviously already dead. Is the old king uncomfortable or had a stroke and was partially paralyzed? People also tended more towards the latter.
Not to mention someone was adding fuel to the flames behind the scenes.
Even those royal family members who were anxiously waiting for good news about Lin Cheng at home began to inquire about the news from each other, wanting to know whether Lin Cheng was dead or alive, and whether the old king had a stroke.
Now, without the supporters of the Howard family making small moves, they were already in disarray themselves.
Chadan really added pressure to his father the King.
Not only did Chadan fail to reassure the people and stabilize the situation, but he also shook the people's hearts and made the situation directly chaotic.
The incident fermented for two days, causing quite a stir.
People still did not get any news about Lin Cheng. Faced with everyone's doubts, Chadan did not come forward to clarify.
At this time, even if they let Lin Cheng appear in front of the camera with a respirator to let people see that he was alive, it could have eased everything. But no.
The old king has never shown his face either.
Schools began to stop classes. Large groups of citizens parading banners about the heir to the throne appeared on the streets. There were also many protesters holding up banners to support Lai En as the heir to the throne.
For a while, people across the country were in a panic.
Obviously, the royal family could no longer remain silent in this situation.
On the eighth day after the engagement banquet, that was after Lin Cheng’s car accident.
All royal family members finally received a response from the old king.
Lai En came to his father Lafeier's ward: "The palace just sent someone to pass the message that the old bastard has an important matter to announce tomorrow morning and asked us to go."
Lafeier, who had just finished the call, put down his mobile phone and told Lai En with a smile: "The old bastard is going to announce the eldest prince as the heir."
Lai En: "So far everything has been going very smoothly. Our people have also been arranged. Next it’s time for us to take the stage."
Lafeier's smile deepened: "I look forward to tomorrow's drama."
Lai En looked at his father, his smile was a little ambiguous, and he also said: "I also look forward to it very much."
In the ancient castle, Qiao Ying put away the needles after the treatment: "After waiting for so many days, there should finally be some gains."
She told the person on the bed: "I will go to the scene tomorrow. It is estimated to be quite lively. Do you want me to record it for you?"
After thinking about it: "If nothing unexpected happens, there should be a fierce dogfight. I know you live a dull life and happen to like dogs, so let me record it to show you something fresh."
Qiao Ying picked her eyebrows lightly and added: “If I don't forget." She also said: "I should still tell Qin Han Yue."
The next day early in the morning.
Lai En got ready and went to find his father to set off for the palace.
His father told him:
"Lin Guli took Lin Cheng's body and just left the hospital to the funeral home. Next should be contacting relatives and friends to handle Lin Cheng's funeral arrangements - he must not be allowed to contact Qiao Ying."
Lai En asked: "What does Father plan to do?"
Lafeier smiled mysteriously: "My people have already set off."
Father and son then left the hospital and headed for the palace.
Lafeier sat in the car, looking at the palace in the distance, tapping the rhythm on his lap, not knowing what he was thinking.
The car stopped at the palace gate.
Lafeier got out of the car and stood in front of the majestic building that symbolized his status, but didn’t rush in.
Lai En thought his father was appreciating their future home, but soon realized that his father's expression didn't seem to be joyful.
So he asked, "Is there a problem, Father?"
Lafeier: "Nothing, I just feel that everything has been too smooth, and I feel a little uneasy in my heart."
Lai En: “Didn’t Father say that as long as that woman doesn't know, there won't be any accidents? She is in Hua Country now, completely unaware of everything that is happening here, including Lin Cheng's death. Father doesn't need to be paranoid."
Lafeier nodded: "Let's go."
Father and son arrived a little late, and most people had already arrived.
All the engagement items in the main hall had been removed and restored to its former majesty and solemnity.
As soon as father and son appeared, they immediately attracted the eyes of everyone present. The buzz also gradually disappeared, and everyone looked at father and son differently.
Lafeier looked at the media reporters who had set up cameras and said in a low voice to Lai En next to him: "This old bastard really doesn't learn his lesson and even dares to ask the media reporters to come - this will be a good show to watch. "
