Spearman's Fate

And Ernest himself was not surprised at all, but slowly wiped his face clean before speaking.

"I'm telling the 'truth', at most I just missed some things, don't you think so? Lord Prefect~"

Ernest had the same smile on his face as before, and he couldn't see that he was still suffering for his "son" before. As for the eunuch opposite him, he shook his head helplessly. He really can't like it, or as long as the "plan" is successful, the first thing he will do is to kill the other party, after all, the other party is too dangerous.

He is not too young, and he has seen many good and bad people, but he has never seen a person like the other party, and the appearance of completely obeying his own desires is really... frightening.

"It should be. I'm here to tell you that the person you mentioned before has been contacted."

Ernest, who was still smiling, suddenly showed an expression of ecstasy.

"It's great~! It's really great~! The most important chess piece is finally in hand!"

The prefect didn't seem to understand Ornest's performance. In his opinion, the opponent had several Teigu envoys under his command, and the remnants of the Emperor Fist Temple were also gathered under him. No matter how strong that 'Lancer' was, Don't dare to mess around, isn't it the best evidence that Ernest has not been assassinated so far?If the opponent is really strong to the point of BUG, ​​they will not be able to survive until now.

Ornest just smiled and shook his finger.

"I have a lot of people under my command, but after all, I lack the role of 'one punch'. This time, it's for this~ Okay, I won't say much, you will know when people come~"

At this time, Ernest seemed to be in a good mood, not at all sad because of his 'son', after all, as he said—————'Isn't he a son?Just die and regenerate. '

Now what he thinks in his heart is, 'Although the city lord is not good looking, his daughter is not bad. '

------

Although Lancer has never made any statement, in Leone's opinion, he has taken a big step forward!

She knew that with her own status, it was unlikely that she would become Lancer's first wife. After all, with Lancer's current status, she would definitely marry a certain noble woman in the future, and it was even possible that the emperor would marry his daughter to him, but she was not worried at all. , because she believed in Lancer!

She may not know Lancer very well, but she knows that Lancer is a "responsible" person, even if he gets married in the future, he will protect her~

Maybe it was because the iron ring around her neck was removed, or because of Lancer's 'promise' before she left, Leonai was very happy today, and she even deliberately 'disguised' to go out for a stroll.

Although Lancer did not forbid her to go out before, but every time she went out, she had to be baptized by the eyes of passers-by, but this time was different, she would even raise her head unconsciously to show her smooth neck, although it looked a bit childish , but it is indeed enough to explain her feelings at this time.

It was obviously still the familiar imperial capital, but it gave her a feeling of 'strangeness'.

After thinking about it for a while, she finally found out that something was wrong. The nobles who were always arrogant and looked superior had disappeared. Although the street seemed to be much noisier than usual, she felt more comfortable because she didn’t need to be careful everywhere. Walk around certain people.

'Is this all because of what the master did? '

Leonai didn't know anything about 'political balance', and she didn't even know that Lancer was already in the crater. She just felt that the entire imperial capital had become 'better' thanks to Lancer's efforts.

And it happened that at this time the 'auction house' on the street started to promote again.

Leonai was very curious about this, but she didn't pay much attention to it. After all, she didn't have the money to go to that kind of place either before or now, but the propagandists on the side of the road didn't seem to think so and just stuffed a leaflet into she.

Although she is a thief in the slums, Leo Nai has learned some words. After all, if she steals things, if she doesn't know anything, she will have been tricked many times. After reading it, her face is full of words A strange expression appeared, because this auction was quite different from what she had imagined.

According to the leaflet, there are a lot of items in this auction. Except for a few high-quality goods that form a special auction, some ordinary items can be visited and purchased by anyone.

Why is it so weird?It's very simple, because these auction items are all belongings of nobles who were beheaded and ransacked their homes before.

The most valuable things are naturally turned over to the national treasury, and are generally auctioned off to the rich, while some unsold and unappreciated things are placed in this 'big auction'.

To put it simply, although it sounds grand, it is actually a 'flea market' or a 'second-hand market'.

Anyone who comes here can participate, Leonai, who was a little curious, also decided to take a look...

Chapter 59 Unexpected Attack

The so-called "auction" is actually a piece of open space near the slums filled with "furniture" and "daily necessities" found from the homes of various nobles. The so-called auction is actually a shopping guide standing next to a few items. , and then a few ordinary people bid, although it was completely different from Leonai's impression, but it was indeed a novel experience.

Among the crowd, there were quite a few people who wandered around like Leone but didn't buy anything, but most of them did so because they didn't find what they wanted, while Leone did it because——————————————————————————————————————————— .

That's right, she just had no money, all her original 'family property' was confiscated, and later the ingredients and other things used at home were delivered to the door by a special person, which also caused Leone to only have some 'pocket money' from Lancer , This also led to her shopping for a long time but found that she couldn't afford the things she liked, and she didn't like what she could afford.

But at this moment, a burst of "exclamation" came from a distance, and she also squeezed over with the mentality of joining in the fun.

At this time, a small auction was being held on a raised platform.

"Everyone, please take a closer look. According to the pattern, this 'sash' should be created at the beginning of the empire, and it is stored in the treasury of the Stuart family. It is definitely not ordinary..."

What the auctioneer said was hype, but in fact the reaction below was very flat, because the material of this 'sash' was not precious metal, and there were no gems on it. It was just a leather and iron sash. No one would wear it with them, so it could only be stored at home, but collecting a sash...it's strange no matter how you look at it, after all, it's not something famous.

However, Leo Nai, who was standing behind the crowd, saw the belt, but her eyes lit up. She was sure that she had never seen the belt before, but for some reason, she felt a voice calling for her to wear it. I took it, but I looked at my wallet, it wasn't even half enough...

Just when Leone was thinking about what to do———————

"Miss, do you want that belt?"

A young man in formal attire suddenly appeared beside Leonai, and Leonai took a step back unconsciously. Although she had never been approached by similar people before, she knew it. Those nobles I like to use this trick to seduce girls who don't understand anything.

And the young man was also taken aback when he saw Leonai's expression, and then showed a wry smile.

"Miss, I think you may have misunderstood me. Let me introduce myself first. My name is Kaiser, and I am one of the persons in charge of this large auction. I want to tell you that our auction is okay" If you borrow money, as long as you can prove that you have the ability to repay the money, you can buy it directly with an IOU."

The other party's words made Leone stunned for a moment, because she had never heard of this matter, but the other party continued to explain.

"Although the total value of all the items this time is not too exaggerated, at least it does not exceed the record of our auction house. The reason for this is that although the total value of the items auctioned this time is not low, there are too many of them, and the people who are facing almost They are all ordinary people in the imperial capital, and they may not be able to spend that much money for a while, so we launched this business."

After finishing speaking, seeing Leonai still had a disbelieving expression on his face, he sighed helplessly and moved over.

"I'm honored to see General Lancer shopping with you, so..."

Leonai said so many "great truths" before, but Leonai didn't respond in the slightest. On the contrary, the last sentence made Leonai show a "suddenly enlightened" expression.

Although Lancer took the initiative to avoid contact with other nobles, there were quite a few nobles who came to 'make friends' with them. At most, Lancer only took some "ordinary things" and would return gifts, which was regarded as a normal exchange of favors. This also caused some people to find no chance to 'bribe' Lancer at all.
