Eighth Crown

The Knight Commander sat at the top of the living room.

And Aigre was standing in the center of the living room.

The Knights Commander looked down at Aigrey from above, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot, while Aigrey looked solemn and said nothing.

At first glance, it looked like Agre was being interrogated by the Knight Commander.

But the actual situation is similar to this.

"Aigre Seiyat, the guilt of lying about the military situation and deceiving the Knights is not something you, a little noble daughter, can bear."

The leader of the knights sat on the chair, crossed Erlang's legs, pinched the mustache around his mouth with one hand, and looked at Aigre below with a gloomy expression.

"I waited for the knights to eat and sleep in the rough, and I drove here for two days in a row, but what I saw was a peaceful scene. You should understand how sinful it is for you to lie about the military situation, right?"

This guy, which eye sees this peaceful scene?

Is it not enough that I deliberately allow monsters to destroy and kill?

Lucia thought so in her heart.

The entire town and surrounding villages have been destroyed by more than 80%, with nearly 10,000 casualties. If such a loss can still be called peace, what else can be called heavy?

"I already said it, Knight Commander."

Aigre stood upright in the center of the living room, and responded fearlessly: "Everything I said on the magic phone is true, two days ago, an army of monsters did attack the Sait collar, but it benefited from it. With the help of a powerful adventurer, the current situation has been brought under control, but there are still monsters left outside the city, you can send your knights to investigate and prove what I said is true."

Although her answer was straightforward, there was no lie in her words.

However, this kind of rhetoric is obviously far from enough to deal with a high-level national who deliberately finds fault.

"This can't hide the essence of our Knights' trip for nothing."

The head of the knights didn't even look at her, his face was full of sneer, "Our kingdom knights are the country's highest combat power, they are not a team that can be easily dispatched, this time because you said that the situation is extremely serious and made an exception to dispatch. of."

"As long as I report to the king that you are working with the enemy to deliberately lead the Knights out of the capital, and there is actually a conspiracy secretly, I can easily deprive you of your noble status and send you to prison."

This guy didn't even have the slightest intention to cover up, and he started threatening Aigre aboveboard.

However, the position of the leader of the knights is far higher than that of her aristocratic child. Even in the capital, he is a high-ranking country with real power. As long as he says so, not many people dare to sing against him.

In that case, even if Aigrey was not guilty, I am afraid that she would be forced to take false charges.

"Can you be considered a knight who protects the country like this?!"

Aigrey escaped her anger unexpectedly, her almond-shaped eyes widened, and she glared at the Knight Commander's righteous and awe-inspiring, "Also, the Queen can't just sit back and watch your conspiracy succeed!"

When it comes to fighting, marching and fighting, Egley is obviously a good player.

But when it comes to politics, she's completely clueless.

"It's really stupid, if the Queen was still there, how could I have done such a thing? I'm kind enough to tell you, it's a coincidence that at the same time as I left the capital, the queen also left the capital, and now it is The king is taking care of the internal affairs instead."

There was a smug smile on the face of the Knights Commander, and the two mustaches around his lips were high, "So no matter what you say, no one will believe it."

"But, of course, if I can, I don't want to do those troublesome things, but you have to know that I have a lot of knights to support, they have a lot of military exploits to take, but it's a pity because you lied about the military situation. Because of this, I can only go home empty-handed this time... So, you know what I mean?"

The leader of the knights spread his hands and made a helpless expression, "You have to pay some amount, so that I can make up for the dissatisfaction of the knights."

This is his purpose.

In other words, it was asking for money, and it was enough money to make up for the entire Knight Order.

Lord Sait is a real power aristocrat. After many years of management, he certainly has very rich assets.

If he was still alive, with his position of power, no matter how jealous the knight commander was, he wouldn't dare to attack him rashly.

But now he is dead.

Very suffocated to die in this disaster.

There was only one golden mountain left for him to dig, so why would he not do it?

As for Agrey? Just the daughter of an aristocrat, she has strength and is good at playing with the regime. He has some ways to deal with this little girl, which is far from enough to make him feel jealous.

In fact, he took this trip in the hope of repelling this wave-like disaster, so as to obtain the king's reward and promotion of power.

But this time, the disaster was repelled by an unknown adventurer at an unknown time. Isn't that the adventurer who got the credit, and he didn't even gain a little bit?

In view of this, he naturally arose the idea of ​​​​playing the autumn wind.

As long as you get all the assets of Sait, it is also a huge gain, no less than the reward for repelling the tide. This hand can be described as quite witty.

in the living room.

The more he thought about it, the more proud he became, and he almost laughed.

"I reject!"

His Excellency, just when the leader of the knights fell into a delusion, Aigrey's cold words sounded, "The property left by the father is to pay the adventurers who repelled the monsters and rebuild the town. Yes, it will never be left to a moth like you in this country!"

Aigre didn't mean to compromise at all, and very bluntly refused the request of the Knight Leader.

"That's a pity, it seems that you are indeed a spy who is a foreign spy."

The leader of the knights deliberately made a regretful look, and then said gloomily: "Knights, take her down, put her in the prison, and you can deal with it."

It doesn't really matter if she agrees or not.

If he agreed, he could justifiably inherit the property owned by Sait. If he didn't agree, he could also put her on a trumped-up charge, and then seize Sait's house, and still get the property.

In this way, even if the queen returns to the capital in the future, she will not be able to say anything without evidence.

Agrey's face showed an extremely humiliating look, but her back was still straight, and she even stretched out her hand without a trace, holding the long sword around her waist, obviously intending to resist.

"Hey."

At the moment when the leader of the knights gave the order to take Aigre down, a voice that could not hear the slightest anger sounded from outside the door and entered the ears of several people in the living room.

"There is still a remuneration to be paid to me in that asset, don't you plan to take it all away?"
