This was the reason why the king was afraid of the Wilson family.

The Wilson family had too much power and prestige, especially in the army. Because of this, King Simon had no choice but to weaken the Wilson family.

But he was not stupid enough to force the Wilson family into a dead end.

Camia recounted what had happened. After hearing it, Wilson was stunned. At first, he thought that his sister had killed Berg, and he was ready to fight the royal family.

But it wasn’t her!

He felt a little regretful. He had been patient with the damn royal family for a long time.

If it weren’t for Earl Wilson’s suppression, he would have rebelled a long time ago. He would rather be sent to the battlefield of the heavens than stay in the imperial capital, which was deliberately suppressed.

He didn’t know how long he would have to wait for this opportunity.

As for the matter of Berg forcing his sister to submit, Wilson did not believe it at all.

How could he not know Camia’s character?

If Berg had really forced Camia, she would not shed tears. Instead, she would act as if nothing had happened and try her best to take revenge on the entire royal family. She would not stop until she achieved her goal.

In terms of intelligence, Camia was the number one person in the Wilson family.

Even Wilson had to admire her.

Such a person could cry?

At least Wilson had never seen Camia cry.

Before they had got married, Camia must have expected what would happen next, but she had been extremely calm.

It was abnormal. Everything in front of him was too abnormal.

Wilson looked at Camia seriously, but he could not see anything.

But he knew that Camia was definitely lying and pretending.

In that case, as a brother, he had to cooperate well. After hearing Camia’s words, he deliberately pretended to be very angry and roared, “What? Berg drugged you and forced you?”

He turned to the king. “Your Majesty, you have to help my sister.”

There was nothing wrong with his words. But his expression was too fake. It was obvious that he was pretending.

Camia was speechless. She covered her head with her hand. Her brother’s acting was too exaggerated.

“B*stard!”

The king scolded Wilson loudly. “Camia is Berg’s wife. She should do anything. Besides, Berg has already been killed. There’s not even a corpse left. How do you want me to stand up for you?”

Beside him, a few silent counts and dukes wanted to laugh, but they did not dare to.

They stepped forward to smooth things over. “Your Majesty, don’t be angry. Wilson is in a rush and cares too much about Camia. That’s why he acted so rashly. Don’t take it to heart.”

“Wilson, quickly apologize to Your Majesty!”

“Your Majesty, the most important thing now is to find the murderer…”

King Simon was annoyed.

These officials always spoke useless nonsense. If they were really asked to do something, they would not be able to.

He shouted outside in annoyance, “Is the grand tutor not here yet? Where is Celt? Why isn’t he here yet? Hurry up and send someone to speed him up. You bunch of good-for-nothings, what are you standing here for?”

Just as he finished speaking, a middle-aged man who had a sorrowful expression immediately knelt outside. “Your Majesty, my son, Celt, is dead. He died at home. Your Majesty must make a decision for me…”

Five or six servants followed behind him, carrying a corpse covered with a white cloth.

They lifted it and took a look.

They frowned slightly.

The deceased was indeed Celt.

An old man went forward to carefully examine it, then said to the crowd, “Celt was crushed to death by a huge force. All the bones in his body were crushed, and he has been dead for a day.”

“He died a day ago?”

Wilson asked in puzzlement, “Then who went to my house to pick up the bride yesterday?”

He clearly remembered that Celt was among the people who had picked up the bride yesterday.

When the crowd heard that, they were shocked.

Just this alone could basically eliminate Camia’s suspicion, because, from the day of the wedding, Celt had been in everyone’s sight. That meant that the murderer had long disguised himself as Celt and sneaked into the Prince’s mansion.

It was all for the purpose of killing Berg. It could be seen that it was premeditated.

“That person is the murderer!”

A voice came from afar. An old man with white hair walked over and sighed softly. “Yesterday, I saw the person who pretended to be Celt. I felt that there was something wrong with him. For example, although he was smiling, his eyes were extremely cold.”

“At that time, I didn’t think too much about it. After all, I don’t know Celt very well.”

“Sigh, I didn’t notice it in time!”

This old man was the grand tutor of the Simon Empire.

He was almost 300 years old this year.

He had gone through four changes of kings of the Simon Empire and rarely appeared. Only for important matters of the royal family would he appear.

Even though he was king, Simon still had to be polite when he saw the grand tutor.

“Grand tutor.”

King Simon bowed. “Thank you for appearing this time…”

Before he could finish, the grand tutor waved his hand. “Your Majesty, there’s no need to say more. I know and understand. Let’s begin.”

After saying that, he walked into the new room.

A green rune appeared above his head.

Holy light enveloped the entire room.

Then, an image appeared in front of him. In the image, a maid walked out with a hangover soup, and Camia drank the hangover soup…

Camia was also watching.

These images were her experiences.

What happened after the courage was different from what happened to her. The real situation was that after Berg came in, the man followed him in, but in this image, he didn’t appear at all, what happened after that was completely different from what actually happened.
