Chapter 407 Henry VIII

Under the leadership of Kafney, the two did not encounter any obstacles along the way.

This made Annan a little surprised.

"...Why is the palace so quiet?"

He looked back at Kaphne and asked curiously, "Is this the same as usual?"

"Of course not...and there are a lot more people than usual today."

Kaphne whispered.

She looked a little uneasy...seemed to regret bringing Annan here.

According to common sense, even if the princess Kafney leads the way in such a powerful place as the palace. But Annan, as a stranger who hadn't been notified, at least had to be caught and questioned, and he might even be arrested by the guards.

And Kafney, after all, is not the eldest princess Elizabeth.

Elizabeth, as the default first heir, is virtuous and prestige. She brought strangers into the palace, and the guards might indeed pretend not to see them—even among those guards, many of them were hers.

She came from the army after all.

There are many guards who were promoted from her immediate family, and there are not a few people who have become officers and captains now.

But Kaphne is just the opposite-although she says she is going to be the queen every day, no one believes her.

This actually makes sense.

After all, before Kaphne met Annan, her erosion was too high, causing Kaphne to be chaotic and crazy every day, and her spirit was never very clear.

It is precisely because of this that the Dream Stealer Denton failed to fully grasp Kaphne's heart-because even he himself was worried that after stepping into the depths of Kaphne's memory, his soul might be contaminated .

While Kaphne isn't quite the devil yet...she's the real lunatic.

Even the fourth prince himself would occasionally feel a strong sense of fear when looking at Kaphne.

Ordinary people will feel creepy, muscle twitching, and a strong sense of vomiting due to fear just by looking at her, and even those who are not strong-willed have been frightened by Kaphne to incontinence...

It's like being targeted by some monster.

In this case, it is also natural that people fear, alienate and even hate Kaphne. The fourth prince was controlled like a marionette, and he couldn't help Kaphne... Even he himself would be afraid of this daughter.

That is, after staying with Annan for a long time recently, her sanity gradually became sober.

At the same time, Philip continues to disrupt and interfere with Kaphne's relationships.

But everyone they encountered on the road today was well-behaved and didn't look sideways. The guards standing on both sides, even the armor and weapons were polished brightly.

"……I see."

Annan quickly reacted, took Kafney's hand gently, and comforted: "Don't panic, I already understand."

It should be Earl Nolan, who has reported to Henry VIII that Annan is about to come to the palace.

After all, they have been staying at Earl Geraint's house these days. And Earl Geraint's most important duty is to transmit important information directly to Henry VIII.

Although Annan didn't say anything, Kafney immediately believed Annan.

She breathed a sigh of relief and calmed down, nodding slightly.

Annan's expression was slightly more serious.

If Henry VIII already knew who he was...

Then, at this moment, I no longer go to see her grandfather as Kaphne's friend...

——Instead, he met King Noah directly as the future heir of the Duchy of Winter and the Grand Duke of Winter who was about to take the throne.

Annan quickly calmed his mind, passed through the front hall, and then directly entered the second floor of the main hall from the spiral staircase on the west side.

The first floor of the main hall is the banquet hall that Annan saw when he came to Noah when he was a child. From the handrail on the second floor, he could look down - Annan could even see the spot where he blew Philip's head.

Of course, in the timeline of reality, Annan did not do such a thing... But this does not prevent Annan from seeing that place,

Suddenly there was a trace of excitement and nostalgia in my heart.

It was the excitement of "Oh, I know this place."

It's like after playing Abi's game, when I go abroad to travel, I feel "I've been to this place in my last life", and even suddenly have the urge to climb the roof.

Annan followed Kaphne all the way, clockwise down the corridor.

The second floor of the main hall is a circular passage, which can allow six to seven people to pass side by side. The left side is the wall with many portraits, and the right side is the hollow railing. And this channel has eight directions, which are separated by forty-five degrees. Looking down from right above, it looks like a brilliant sun emblem.

And its design sense is that every nineteen steps, you can see a tall, strong, fully armed guard standing on duty. First one on the left, then one on the right, then one on the left.

But every entrance to the inside is not blocked by guards. And there must be a guard standing at the railing on the right, watching in.

What surprised Annan the most was...

When these guards saw Annan, they silently clenched their hands into fists, tapped lightly on their hearts, and lowered their heads.

——This is the etiquette of winter people.

If they can talk at this time, I am afraid that this time they will add "Grandma loves you, my brother".

Just watching this scene made Kafne clench Annan's hand nervously.

"...I-I don't know this..."

She explained to Annan in a low voice.

Annan shook his head slightly, signaling her not to panic.

He completely understood what Kaphne meant - Kaphne meant that she hadn't notified Annan's identity in advance.

But now the situation has become clear.

I'm afraid it's not just the extent to which Henry VIII knew Annan's identity... I'm afraid this matter is already known to everyone on this day.

Even the guards know about it, and the eldest princess and Prince Philip must have known about it.

Why did Henry VIII make his identity public?

If they plan to tinker with Annan's detriment...then they must not reveal Annan's identity. The concept of "not knowing" Annan's identity is not good for him, and knowing his identity is not good for him, the concept is different.

Of course, this knowledge is not whether they really know.

- but external evidence, whether it can show that they "know".

They bypassed the corridor on the west side, and after passing three corridors, they walked in towards the northernmost entrance.

Going all the way to the end, is the king's residence - first the study, and then a room from the study is the bedroom.

And after Annan and Kafney walked into Henry VIII's study, they finally saw the king who was "said to be dying of old age".

But after seeing him, Annan was shocked.

Those short black hair, those dark red pupils that looked like dried blood... Henry VIII looked like a teenage-year-old fourth prince.

These are almost identical two people.

And it's too young - much younger than Annan imagined.

He looks like he's only in his early 40s and 50s... If he didn't say it, he would even think he was the fourth prince's older brother.

...This is a person who everyone thought he was going to "die of old age"?

There's more to come, but writing...
