Kingdom’s Bloodline

Chapter 704: Ace

Emerald Legion, riot mission!

Obtaining the Duke's order, the Seychelles knight shouted.

The first team clears the field first, and kicks out all the contestants who stand in the way! The second team surrounds the host platform, and the black armor below is a hard idea, leave him to me! The third team goes directly to the stage, and puts the self-proclaimed The Duke’s relatives have been dealt with, so don’t be too polite! The fourth to eighth teams, isolate the crowd, search for the accomplices, no matter the cost, be prepared to see blood!”

The Jade Sergeants under the stands echoed in unison and were uniform, which made the guards surrounding Thales very nervous. Huaiya looked around worriedly, trying to find the gap between the team's lines.

No, Jen, wait!

Xi Lai stopped in desperation: If you mobilize people to make things big, you will confirm Federico's accusation—

What qualifications do you have to speak?

Jen turned back instantly, his eyes were cold, and he moved between Thales and Hilley:

For so many years, the only thing you are good at is running away from home!

Hillary's words froze.

But Jann ignored her, just stared at Federico in the distance, and reminded with a cold snort:

Remember, Seychelles, if the prisoner resists...

Yes, my lord, there will be no mercy. Seychelles solemnly repeated the Duke's order, striding towards his team.

However, a hand suddenly put on Seychelles' shoulder, which gave him a sudden stop.

Believe me, old friend, Cassian appeared behind Seychelles with a worried expression, for the sake of Emerald City, now is not a good time for you to show your loyalty.

Seeing this scene, the Jade Sergeants who were ready to go looked at each other hesitantly.

Both Xi Lai and Thales breathed a sigh of relief.

You are no longer a member of the Emerald Legion, Cassian. Seychelles looked forward, but did not even look at his old friend. Let go, or you will lose worse than last time.

After the words fell, Seychelles' posture remained unchanged, but Thales felt that the sin of the prison river jumped slightly!

The sergeants on standby had a bad premonition,

Groups of groups approached each other, concealing a tendency to encircle them.

Maybe.

Cassian frowned slightly, but never let go:

But it's better for me to lose alone than to lose a city.

At that moment, the two never faced each other, but Thales, who was watching, faintly hurt his eyes.

Let me just say, they must have old grievances! Behind Thales, D.D slapped his hands and said to his colleagues proudly.

Cassian's words made Seychelles frown, and he looked around the audience: all the audience in the arena were facing the Duke's stand, all pointing and discussing, and the atmosphere was even more enthusiastic than watching the competition.

Seychelles hesitated for a few seconds, then looked back at Duke Iris.

As I said, Seychelles, Zhan En didn't lower his head, and kept his eyes on Federico, If there are any blockers...

Jane! Hilley snapped.

Jane, calm down!

Thales pushed aside Huai Ya, who was trying to pull him back behind him, and joined the conversation:

Don't forget, you are still the Duke, and you are still the one who has the initiative and the advantage at the moment, far from the point where you will die, and the guy over there is just a half-way candidate, even if he talks too much. Nonsense-

Therefore!

Jen interrupted him rudely:

Suppress him with lightning without leaving any future troubles. This is the simplest and most economical way!

After he finished speaking, he was directly rude:

And with all due respect, it's your shit!

Thales was speechless for a moment.

Well, this is Xiaohuahua, the anger from before has not disappeared?

I know, I know you've always had problems with me, but please, brother, calm down and get your sanity back!

Xi Lai's expression was tangled for a while, but she finally took a deep breath and made up her mind, and what she said made Zhan En frowned:

The guests who will be elected are not only your vassals, but also foreign ministers from towns outside the city, nobles from outside the kingdom, guests from thirteen noble families, envoys from the other side of the sea, businessmen and travelers who have capital to travel far. , including the neighbors, allies, business partners, and competitors of the Iris family...

There are still enemies. Thales couldn't help adding.

Like you? Jen En turned back and glared at Thales, forcing the latter to raise his hand and back away.

The Jade Sergeants surrounding the stands and the Xinghu guards around Thales were already hostile to each other, and their swords were on the verge of breaking out. Seeing the conflict between their masters broke out again, both sides quietly held down their weapons.

And they're all waiting to see your show!

Xi Lai waved Thales to stop making trouble:

Jane, they want to see what you're about to perform. It's a harmless public security matter that can be handled as long as you follow the rules...

It's still a political storm that is so serious that the army must be mobilized to suppress it. Thales added.

So don't be caught—don't look at that brat anymore, I'm your sister! Xi Lai looked angry, and pulled Zhan En's murderous eyes back from Thales, Where did I go? ...So don't be tricked by the enemy anymore! Haven't you suffered enough?

In the face of successive persuasion from both parties, Zhan En said nothing, but his eyes were wide open and his breathing was short.

At this moment, the butler Ashford slowly walked up to the stands and whispered a few words behind the Duke.

Jen En's eyes moved, and he turned his head slightly.

Thales also turned his head, only to find that the nobles and vassals in the adjacent stands left their seats one after another. Some of them hurriedly searched for the exit to leave, some came towards the Duke, and some sent to Zhan En The servant greeted you, and some people secretly summoned the guards to protect themselves, some people were filled with righteous indignation and denounced the villain, some people shouted slogans to help the king, and some even called out the name of Prince Thales loudly, but no matter what kind, the security officer who maintained order And the green hats are under great pressure.

And the eyes of the entire arena are focused on Zhan En at this moment.

Duke Iris took a deep breath and swallowed hard.

see it?

Shiley nodded to Ashford, and said to his brother:

He wishes you could send someone to arrest him, or even kill him in full view! That's his purpose!

Zhan En stared at his cousin, his eyes were tearing apart, and he didn't say a word.

That's right, remember the duel between Anke Bailar and him? Thales resisted the doubts in his heart and chimed in, The enemy is forcing you to make a choice. Killing the killer on impulse will become a default stigma The unjust duke, or—”

Are you finished?

Jen interrupted him coldly:

You care so much about us, Your Highness, I thought you were the Duke of South Bank!

Thales couldn't help but pause.

On the other side, the confrontation between Seychelles and Cassian is still going on, and the surrounding atmosphere is becoming more and more tense. The sergeants subconsciously hold their weapons and prepare for battle. The unknown Xinghu guards are caught in the middle, uneasy, and prepare for the situation If there is a change, the plan to give priority to self-protection.

This strange scene aroused the curiosity and speculation of more viewers.

Think about it, Jen, if they used misleading from the beginning to let you consciously or unconsciously cover up the murder case, and based on this, plant them on you...

Thales had to bite the bullet and continue:

Then we have to assume that, including the cover-up of the murder, all your subsequent reactions have been pre-calculated by them, including your so-called thunder method! And they must have laid more traps waiting for you ahead!

Jen didn't speak, but his fists were clenched tightly.

That's Federico! You grew up together, went to school together, and even shared a teacher! Shiley nodded and warned, He knows you too well! Remember that broken vase when you were young?

Jen's expression moved slightly, he was still staring at Federico, but the anger in his eyes gradually subsided.

A few seconds later, under everyone's attention, the Duke of South Bank took a deep breath.

Wait a while, Seychelles, check the situation first, Zhan En ordered softly, And you, Cassian, let him go.

Under the stage, Cassian smiled slightly and let go of the hand on Seychelles' shoulder. Seychelles frowned tightly, and finally waved his hand reluctantly, signaling the entire team of sergeants to wait.

Xi Lai breathed a sigh of relief, and she nodded to Thales from an angle that her brother could not see.

and……

Thales saw that there was something going on, and quickly changed the subject. He looked at Federico and expressed his doubts:

From repeated revenge murders, to misleading, to framing, all this Federico did was just to show up and accuse you at this very moment?

Jen En's eyes moved, and he slowly raised his head:

What's the meaning?

Anyway, I don't believe that's all there is to him. No, based on my knowledge of secret science, Federico must have someone behind him, Thales shook his head firmly, He is quite dangerous, not just another Fair Anke Bailar.

Jen narrowed his eyes, thoughtful.

But at this moment, Federico spoke again and shouted to the entire arena:

What's the matter, cousin, why are you still hesitating?

He looked at Zhan En and the Jade Legion who were ready to go, and laughed loudly:

Don't you rush to urge your lackeys, whether it's the Emerald Legion, the Blood Bottle Gang, the police officers, or mercenaries from somewhere, hurry up and smash my body into thousands of pieces, and bury it in the sea to cover people's eyes and ears?

Jen frowned.

Just like what you do to all dissidents—killing people to silence them will solve the problem?

After Federico's voice fell, the audience talked a lot, and the noise of the entire arena gathered together, becoming more and more chaotic.

More and more people are looking at the green hats all over the field - some soldiers focus on their duties and maintain order, and some are gearing up to sharpen their swords, just waiting for an order from their superiors - pay attention to their weapons, eyes There is fear and anticipation at the same time.

Zhan En's relaxed expression tightened again, and he frowned:

Seychelles--

But before the duke's order could be uttered, Federico on the presiding stage changed the subject:

Then don't worry, I'll do my best to help you!

Federico leaned out and announced loudly to the audience:

Listen up, Emerald City! Under the witness of the Goddess of the Sunset, I swear that the son of Sona Cavendir, Federico Cavendir, will be captured here without any resistance!

After Federico's voice fell, Zhan En, Thales, and Xi Lai were all startled.

Not only them, Seychelles, Cassian, Wyah... Countless people were stunned.

Look, cousin!

Federico roared: For justice and truth, for justice and law, I dare to entrust my life to you!

It's just you, patricide coward, do you dare to look me in the eye in front of my face, in front of the entire Emerald City, in the light of the setting sun and the bright moon? Do you dare, Jayne Cavendir?

In the next second, the discussion in the audience suddenly increased with a wow, as if the snowball was getting bigger and bigger and finally burst.

Is he telling the truth? Captured without a fight?

Don't, I'm still looking forward to a big battle or an assassination!

So stupid...

No, it's a pretty smart move...

What are you smart about? If I were Duke Zhann, I would take this opportunity to kill him with one knife, and it would be over...

You think the duke is as stupid as you?

Stop dawdling, let's go!

Damn... that exit is not allowed to go, there are green hats guarding...

No, don't quarrel with them. In this situation, they can kill you with a single 'suspected traitor', and there is no reason to reason...

Why is that? He wants...surrender? Hille murmured.

It's because he saw you hesitated, and no longer intends to kill him on the spot, Thales guessed, So he changed his strategy and wanted to fight a protracted war of attrition?

Zhan En's eyes were ups and downs, and his expression was uncertain.

Cheat ghosts, Morgan said angrily in the lineup of the Star Lake Guard, The fugitive young master spent a lot of effort, plus an extreme master rushing around to show his face on the host stage, so he's 'catch it without a fight' gone?

I don't believe it either, Glover agreed, unless he makes the killer surrender first...

But the zombie's words suddenly froze.

Strange. He wondered.

Everyone, including Thales, noticed something was wrong and took a closer look:

At some point, that black-armored soldier who broke through all the way and escorted Federico to the host stage, and then guarded the stage as a guard...

It has long since disappeared without a trace.

Where's the person? Where's the other person? Where's Lausanne II? Miranda came to her senses. She climbed up the railing in two steps and looked at the empty steps under the presiding stage in the distance. She was shocked, When did you disappear?

In an instant, everyone, including the security officers and guards surrounding the presiding stage, burst into exclamation, as if they had just discovered that the enemy guarding in front of them had disappeared.

I don't know, it's unbelievable, Paul said in disbelief, looking around, I've been using the 'Sky View' method to pay attention to the movement over there, this is the method that the Bozdov family learned from the 'Sun Shooter', He is best at locking and aiming at prey, and it stands to reason that it is impossible to suddenly lose the target...

It is 'reasonable', Wyatt took out his notebook and recorded solemnly, but don't forget, everything about Lausanne II is against common sense.

Thales, who saw this scene, was equally astonished.

He just disappeared?

Weird and eerie.

Is this planned?

Wait, if you lose the protection of a master, Paul looked into the distance, thinking, then Federico...

In the next second, there was no biggest obstacle, and the security officers and guards under the podium finally woke up as if they had just woken up from a dream, and instantly became full of energy and energy. division!

And Federico raised his hands very cooperatively, but before he had time to kneel down, he was thrown down by several police officers, and countless beatings and suppressions ensued.

Surrender immediately!

lay down your weapon!

Don't move!

Put your hands up!

Get off the megaphone!

Stay where you are!

For a moment, chaotic shouts and warnings came and went, passing through the microphone and spreading throughout the arena.

To be able to fight all the way out of the siege of the contestants, and then knock down so many guards, Glover looked sullenly, looking at the several exits under the host stage, That should be Lausanne II, right? He just left his employer like this , and ran away with your tail between your legs?

The loyalty of a mercenary. Morgan poohed.

Huh, it's thanks to him running away, D.D heaved a sigh of relief thankfully, and seeing everyone's eyes, he shook quickly, arrogantly, I mean, I taught him to run away! Otherwise, we wouldn't let him go ...

Then let's go after him now? Nexi was excited and eager to try.

The rest of the people looked at each other, you look at the bandage on my body, I look at the wound on your hand, everyone turned their heads tacitly and remained silent.

We should put His Highness's safety first. Miranda sighed.

Ah, what about the honor of the guards? If it's scary, if Chief Mallos wakes up... Nexi couldn't believe it.

Actually, D.D interrupted gravely, it's for the honor of the Guard.

Everyone fell silent.

Soon, the figures of the police officers and guards covered the entire host platform, and the bloody iris flag on the host platform was roughly removed, as if to indicate that the accident was coming to an end.

Get down! Get down!

No, kneel down!

Slow down, put your hands where I can see them!

Catch him!

Hold and hold!

Tie it up!

Gag him?

No, there are so many people watching... stop beating!

We are police officers. According to the laws of Emerald City, you have the right to defend yourself and stand trial...

The situation changed dramatically, arousing a new round of discussion among the audience, and the sound in the arena became chaotic and noisy again.

I don't understand, this Master Federico made such a big deal, Paul asked many people's doubts, but he just raised his hand and surrendered like this? That killer is his strongest thug and the biggest bargaining chip to ensure safety. Right? Just let it go so easily?

right.

Thales also frowned: The other party made a scene in the arena and accused the current Duke of the most vicious and terrifying crimes, but now...

Just get caught?

No, on the contrary, he grabbed his biggest bargaining chip. Miranda looked at Federico in the distance, thinking.

At least he saved his life. Glover said disdainfully.

But... Paul hesitated to speak.

But that doesn't make sense.

Thales nodded, and took his words from the bottom of his heart.

Yes, maybe Federico could save his life by doing this.

Under pressure, Zhan En will not kill him, at least not in public.

But didn't he know that if he fell into the hands of Kongming Palace like this, he would have no chance of winning?

Thales turned his head subconsciously: Zhan En observed the situation on the court, his brows fluctuated, and he didn't know what to think.

He really surrendered... Xi Lai couldn't believe it, Jen, what are you going to do?

Jen looked expressionlessly at the chaos on the stage, but soon, he took a deep breath and calmly ordered:

Seychelles, the mission is cancelled, let the Emerald Legion go back to their posts, and continue to maintain order.

Seychelles was surprised:

But my lord, this criminal has committed a heinous crime...

Call Second Lieutenant Cherki and ask him to lead the security officer out of the team and bring the prisoner here, Zhan En did not allow him to retort, Remember to pay attention to your quality, be gentle in your attitude and actions, and don't disturb the audience.

Seychelles hesitated to speak, but Cassian shook his head at him.

Send your most capable tracker, Zhan En continued, to chase the master who ran away. Even if you can't catch him, you have to figure out his whereabouts.

Seychelles was silent for a few seconds, then turned around and called for an order.

Ashford, let the sponsors work, appease the audience, and adjust the atmosphere. The winner of the election is still undecided. It's time to prepare for the next game, Jann calmly issued orders one by one, and , summon the vassals and distinguished guests present, they need an explanation, or in other words, they need to 'correctly know' what happened here, rather than unnecessary suspicion.

The butler smiled and nodded.

Very well, Jann. Seeing his brother recovering his senses, Xi Lai was quite relieved, Don't forget who you are and who we are—don't let his nonsense affect you.

She took a deep breath:

Remember: Kevin Dill never dies with enemies.

But Zhan En didn't say anything, he just glanced at his sister with complicated eyes.

Then what are you going to do? Throw him into prison, or open sea? Thales asked.

Jen looked back and gouged him out.

That guy, he thought he could ruin my reputation and incite the public, and thought he had the biggest bargaining chip, so he dared to come from behind the scenes to the front of the stage. Zhan En's eyes were sharp, and he snorted coldly, But he also forgot that his biggest bargaining chip is the biggest bargaining chip. disadvantage.

Taylor's eyes moved.

This is Emerald City, and he walked into my chess game, Zhan En said coldly, you have to abide by my rules.

That's right.

Jenn's rules.

With Jann's influence, control and dominance in the Emerald City for many years-whether it is a simple and rude execution order, a series of complex political and legal operations, or even exquisite public opinion guidance and manipulation, he will be appointed as Federico. No matter how brilliant the tongue is and how to incite the public, no matter how well-founded it is, it is bound to fail in the end.

This truth - Thales looked at Federico with a heavy heart - didn't he know?

Why...surrender so simply?

In the arena, the host trembled and stood on the stage again, and reluctantly (thanks to the group of security officers standing in the audience) used his calm voice to remind the audience and contestants that the election will be interrupted for some reason, and now it will resume start.

But no one cares about the contest anymore.

The ranks of the police officers and the Emerald Legion flowed again. They shouted back the crowd, maintained order, opened a passage around the arena, and escorted the prisoners to the Duke's stand.

Federico, who was tied up, was bruised and swollen. Every time the escort team passed a stand, the audience was extremely excited. People stood on tiptoes and stretched their necks, or yelled and crowded forward, vying to see the grand election. will be the culprit.

The atmosphere seemed to be back to the time when the contestants were fighting fiercely before the accident happened.

On the way to escort, Federico was quiet and obedient, neither yelling in protest nor struggling to resist, but as the team got closer, everyone in the Duke's stand became more and more nervous.

Be alert! Watch out for the crowd! Seychelles shouted, and the Emerald Legion responded in unison.

Strange, he really didn't resist at all. D.D looked at Federico in the escort team and whispered to his companions.

I didn't suddenly throw an alchemy ball to surprise the audience. Huai Ya was engrossed.

No assassin came out. Glover scanned his surroundings vigilantly.

There is no accomplice who has been ambush for a long time. Morgan said.

Among the heavyweight audience, there was no one to respond and stir up emotions. Paul paid attention to the aristocratic stands.

There are no turning points, no accidents, and it's even more boring than the stage play in the Temple of the Night. Nexi sighed in disappointment.

So, the fugitive young master has done so much, just to yell at the host stage and pour dirty water on the Duke? Morgan said disdainfully.

Then he is too naive, Paul said. No matter how serious the incident is, once he is caught by the Emerald Legion, he will have nothing to do.

Stupid, Glover shook his head, Hiding in the dark is his greatest strength, but now, he is at the mercy of the Emerald City...

But he still looks confident. I always feel that there is something wrong. Wyatt rubbed his notebook.

Hey, everyone in the Kevin Dill family is like this, D.D shrugged, I suspect they have an ancestor's motto: no matter how panicked they are, their faces will always be paralyzed.

Unless he has a backup. Miranda said suddenly.

All the guards turned to her.

Miranda looked at Federico and said seriously: It's worse, but also a stronger trump card.

Huai Ya was thoughtful: Even if he is captured by the Jade Legion and sent to prison, he is not afraid at all, is there a trump card of fearlessness?

That's right.

Thales, who was listening silently, was equally skeptical.

A trump card.

So... Paul pondered, Where is that trump card? How to play it?

Miranda shook her head.

have no idea.

Miranda reminded everyone in Star Lake Fort:

But this matter must have been planned for a long time. He will not admit defeat easily. Even if he raises his hand to surrender, there may be something strange in it.

That's right.

After hearing what they said, Thales looked around.

He wants to find some familiar figure, or smell the familiar conspiracy.

It's never that simple.

According to experience, Federico must have more bargaining chips, bigger plots, and more powerful means.

It is enough to knock down Zhan En's trump card.

It's not just an appearance, an accusation, and a banner.

In this way, it is in line with the style of Kessel and Kingdom Secret.

Just, where?

what is it

On the other side, after many checkpoints, all the vassals and nobles of the Emerald City, including many heavyweight VIPs, were invited to the Duke's stand. Thales and Jann had to restrain their subordinates, put their swords in their sheaths, sharpen their backs, and work hard Create a harmonious and beautiful atmosphere.

I'm sorry, the family feud has spread to the outside world, which has spoiled everyone's interest.

Jen turned around, faced the guests, and smiled:

The Emerald City is extremely sorry for this.

The Duke spoke in a gentle and friendly manner, and the vassals and guests looked at each other in blank dismay.

It's okay, Lord Duke, the first person to speak was the member of the Immortal Council, Sanguine Yannick, who smiled gracefully and set the tone for the incident, Who doesn't have a few black sheep?

Many people echoed his words.

The situation in Emerald City is very good. It is prosperous and prosperous, and the external forces are jealous when they see it, an old direct vassal snorted. Of course the buzzing of flies and mosquitoes is indispensable.

The most sacred Talal has a saying, family ugliness should not be avoided, and then one is a close relative, one should not hide one's faults, one is a close friend, the envoy from Congzhong City replied humbly, Our Dusu Antaral and the Duke are inseparable, A little episode, nothing to worry about.

In fact, I enjoyed it quite a bit. It's much more interesting than the previous years. Hasha, the special envoy of the Tyrannian trading nation, hugged his concubine and laughed loudly. Of course, if there is anything that needs my country's help, Duke Just talk! Or, at the tariff meeting tomorrow...

Lack of law and order is our city's fault, Zhan En interrupted him in time, with a smile on his face, The relevant departments are following up to remedy it, everyone, please stay safe.

Facing these guests, Zhan En comforted them one by one, and responded earnestly, without leaking any words, as if the turmoil just now did not exist.

Thales frowned again and again.

It seems that no matter whether it is a vassal, a partner, or even a competitor, Miranda frowned, whether they are high-sounding or have ulterior motives, they have no reason to support a man who has lost his position for a long time and has been on the run for many years. After an unprofitable rogue.

Not to mention the trial hall, the security hall, and the city hall in the city... Paul sighed, This young master of Kevin Dill's offshoot, his incitement and accusations are feeble, nothing but a scene of excitement, In fact, the moment he put down his arms and sent his bodyguards away, he was in the game, he lost.

Is it.

Thales was lost in thought.

Federico, did he really lose?

If he really came to bring down Zhan En as he thought...

Is that the only way?

So what is he waiting for?

What else is the secret department preparing?

What else is Kessel V planning to do?

A higher decree? Unexpected evidence? Overwhelming public opinion? The mole who sneaked inside? A foreign enemy with soldiers pressing down on the border?

or something else?

What is the bargaining chip that can make him come back in one fell swoop?

While Thales was thinking hard, Federico was finally brought to the Duke's stand smoothly and steadily.

How are you going to deal with him, my lord? Tanganga, the captain of the Seawolf Fleet, stared at Federico who was getting closer, grinning and gearing up, Let me tell you, leave it to me, take it to the sea to have a look Eternal Whale...

The Emerald Celebration is a great day, let's have fun, Zhan En smiled and spread his hands, responding to the guests, Everyone, who said I'm going to kill someone?

He turned and stepped down the steps, heading towards Federico under the stage.

On the contrary, I want to give him the treatment he deserves. The Jade Sergeants cleared a path among the crowd and let Jann walk towards the prisoner. For the people of the Emerald City.

Amidst the voices of agreement and approval from the vassals and guests, Thales and Xilai glanced at each other and also stepped down the steps.

Seeing Seychelles and Cassian accompanying the two Kevin Dills, Huai Ya was startled, and quickly called everyone to follow Thales, formed a formation, and tried to put on a princely ostentation.

Long time no see, Fede.

Under the watchful eyes of all the guests and even the entire arena, Zhan En looked down at Federico, who was kneeling on the ground and tied tightly, with no possibility of struggling:

you lost weight.

Federico, whose face was covered in blood, wanted to get up, but was held down by the guard behind him. He smiled:

If you've died once, cousin, you'll see that it's not that hard to lose weight.

Xi Lai looked at the prisoner in front of him, hesitated again and again, and finally couldn't help but ask:

Fad, you...why?

Federico turned his head.

Ah, Cecilia, innocent and innocent sister. You really have grown up a lot, haven't you, he said with a sarcasm in his smile, Slim and graceful, waiting to become another queen of Cavendir?

Hillary frowned:

I thought you were dead.

Then you think you are right. Oh, Your Highness Thales, Federico turned to Thales, his eyes lit up, I have been admiring the name for a long time, and I finally see you... Please accept my thanks, I am very grateful!

With all his strength, he bowed awkwardly in a kneeling position.

Taylor's eyes moved:

Why? You and I have never met before.

Federico laughed uncontrollably—compared to Jann's polite and perfect smile, Federico's laugh was even more insolent.

Indeed, but without the blessing of Your Highness, I'm afraid I'll never return to the Emerald City, he said with burning eyes, Of course I would like to thank you very much.

Master Jen!

One of the patriarchs of the Thirteen Noble Families, Earl Lasia of Zedi, came out more and more, full of righteous indignation, especially special:

As far as I know, Federico Kevin Dill is a traitor. He escaped death back then, but he is still stubborn and his nature is hard to change! My lord, please order this thief immediately!

Federico snorted in disdain:

A traitor also has the face to criticize others?

Earl Lacia's complexion changed, and he cursed loudly, but was held back by the eldest son.

While comforting the earl, Jann's eyes wandered, looking at the two girls behind Earl Lacia.

In the next second, the two girls looked at each other and raised their heads solemnly:

Kasha Karabyan, please protect the Duke and use severe punishments to set the record straight.

Qina of the Twin Towers and Long Swords, suggest to Mr. Zhan En, cut the weeds and roots, and don't be soft-hearted.

The two serious sisters had shrewd eyes, raised their hands, and tacitly opened two folding fans, one book obedience to orders, and one inscription loyalty.

Thales heard Hille snorting disdainfully beside him.

Seeing the stance of the two vassal families, Zhan En finally smiled.

Ha, the wisdom is on the left, the sword is on the right, Federico sarcastically said, and Karabyan is always in the middle. Do you know what it looks like-a grass on the wall.

Calabyan's twins are nonchalant, with nearly identical smiles.

Enough, Federico Cavendir.

Zhan En called out his cousin's name with a dignified air.

As a criminal who absconded by feigning death, you have the courage to surrender yourself, which is admirable, but on the other hand, you are stubborn and persistent...

Are you finished, cousin, Master Zhan En?

Federico interrupted him immediately, with disdain on his face: Should I go to the prison through a process, or go directly to the high seas on a boat?

Jen's expression tightened.

In the name of the setting sun, the king, and the ancestors of Kevin Dill, Emerald City will find out the truth of what you are complaining about, whether it is the doubts about Uncle Sona's death or the murders in the past few days, and the witnesses in the entire kingdom Your Majesty, give you justice and the fairest trial.

Judgment? You, cousin, are you going to judge me? Federico snorted, as if he had heard the most ridiculous thing.

It's not me, it's the Emerald City.

Zhan En said coldly: Whether it was inciting riots eleven years ago and causing countless disasters, or being stubborn and causing endless chaos eleven years later.

Federico laughed out loud:

Then why don't you kill me now?

Jen shook his head:

Don't worry, you will get what you deserve - Emerald City has its own laws, and people with ulterior motives are not allowed to use illegal actions to reverse corruption.

There was a voice of approval among the vassals.

Federico laughed out loud after hearing Jann's words.

I know, I know why you are so proud, so sure of winning, cousin...

He slowly scanned everyone in front of him:

Because I have finally fallen into your hands, in your prison, in your court, in your official office, and in the power system that you built with all your strength to overwhelm the sky.

Federico snorted:

You have legal, compliant and extremely hypocritical means to deal with me, confounding black and white to plant blame, and I throw myself into the trap, there is no chance of winning, I can only be indisputable, and I have suffered a crushing defeat.

He struggled to stand up, but was knocked down by the guards again and again, and finally he could only roar angrily:

And as long as Jann Cavendir is still the lord of the city, the Duke of South Bank, and the owner of the iris, the trial against me will not be fair!

Thales looked at Federico's appearance and felt even more puzzled.

What is he doing?

There was no justification, no counterattack, and no threat...

Some are just...

Sad blaming?

Jen smiled.

I understand that no criminal admits to his crimes, just like no son believes his father is a bad man, but sadly, everyone has to pay for what they did.

Zhan was unhurried and well-founded, which made Federico's incoherent speech seem to be avoiding crime.

Ha, in the Emerald City, it's important to talk about majestic methods and serious schemes, Paul shook his head in the team, sarcastically in a low voice, Who can play against the powerful Emerald City Lord himself?

yes.

Thales watched Jann's handling and characterization of Federico, and nodded silently in his heart.

One person against one city, how could it not lose?

That's it? It's over? Nexi couldn't believe it. But no one cares about the so-called murdering the father and seizing the throne, and framing the blame? The Duke's reputation in people's hearts...

Duke Jann has been in power for many years, and his rule is stable. But people are always forgetful, short-sighted, self-interested, and realistic, Wyal said in a daze. Bear it, and time will dilute everything.

Please, don't be disappointed, be happy, D.D beamed, At least we don't have to worry about how to lead His Highness out of the Emerald City.

At this moment, Miranda suddenly said:

Huai Ya turned around in a daze: What?

All members of the Xinghu Guard turned their heads in unison.

real?

D.D became interested, and asked in a low voice, Where? An assassin? A witness? Or a shocking scandal...

The only problem is...

Miranda ignored him, but began to check the weapon on her own:

That trump card, do you want to be turned over?
