Chapter 399: The Queen's Guard

As the chief of the guard spoke, the Queen's Guard took two steps forward, almost pressing their chests against the muzzles of the Blood Lion mercenaries, and similarly, their muzzles against the Blood Lion mercenaries.

The atmosphere became even more tense, and if a clash did break out between the two sides, there was no doubt that the Queen's Guard was no match for the Blood Lion mercenaries at all.

However, the Queen's Guard is not an enemy after all, but an ally of the Blood Lion mercenaries.

If the gunfire really comes to mind here, letting the Queen's Guard corpse streak across the palace will put the Blood Lion mercenaries in an extremely disadvantageous position.

Nie Jialin has always known that many Kakozhiya people have a grudge against the Blood Lion mercenaries, speaking of which, when the Blood Lion mercenaries first came, the Kakozhiya people still welcomed them, after all, the Blood Lion mercenaries helped to quell the civil war.

But then things changed, these Blood Lion mercenaries came from a distant country and quickly took over the defense of Kakozhia and the protection of the queen, crowding out the natives, and of course easily attracting criticism.

So Nie Jialin softened his tone: "We are here to protect Her Majesty's safety, and on this point, our position is the same. ”

The chief guard said angrily, "It is the duty of our Queen's Guard to protect Her Majesty's safety!"

"But you also saw what happened just now...... Nie Jialin spread his hands: "It's just the entourage around the queen, who actually plotted to kill Her Majesty, are you sure that the queen's guard must be reliable?"

The chief of the guard sarcastically: "How can you guarantee that your blood lion mercenaries will be reliable?"

As soon as the chief of the guard said this, Nie Jialin was really speechless.

"I want to meet Her Majesty!" the chief of the guard smiled coldly: "You have no right to deny me to see Your Majesty!"

"You can meet you. Nie Jialin nodded in agreement: "But you can only be alone." ”

The chief of the guard glanced at the angry queen guards, hesitated for a moment, nodded and agreed: "Yes, there is no need to go too many people, as long as I explain the situation to His Majesty alone." ”

Nie Jialin said again: "Also, you must hand over the weapons you carry with you, and you can't bring a gun to the meeting!"

"You don't have the right to give orders to me!" the chief of the guard was even more annoyed: "Our family has served His Majesty the King for generations, and has always carried weapons, what are you doing to give orders to me!"

Nie Jialin replied indifferently: "I'm nothing, but I have the final say here!"

As soon as Nie Jialin's words fell, with the sound of neat "brushing" footsteps, twenty blood lion mercenaries lined up in two neat columns and ran over quickly.

The Blood Lion mercenaries are echelon configurations, all the troops are not together, and they are often about ten people in a team, and each team has its own fixed duty location.

The palace is patrolled by Blood Lion mercenaries inside and outside, and then expands outward, and the surrounding area is also under the control of Blood Lion mercenaries.

After the gunshots rang out just now, the surrounding blood lion mercenaries knew that the palace had mutated and did not need any orders at all, so they immediately began to move closer to the palace, and these two teams were the first to rush over.

In this way, the Blood Lion mercenaries formed a numerical advantage over the Queen's Guard, and then, the Blood Lion mercenaries surrounded them from different angles, and the Queen's Guard was a little nervous.

The chief of the guard looked around and had to soften his attitude: "I can hand over the weapon, but I have to hand it over in front of the queen." ”

"Is this ......" Nie Jialin hesitated, so he had to call Cang Hao on the walkie-talkie: "The chief of the Queen's Guard has asked for an audience, but he must be in front of Her Majesty to hand over his weapons." ”

Cang Hao agreed: "Let him come." ”

"Come with me. Nie Jialin instructed the chief of the guard: "But you can only be alone." ”

The chief guard put down his gun, straightened his clothes, and walked out of the encirclement with great vigour.

Nie Jialin followed the chief guard and didn't say anything.

The chief of the guard walked not far away, and then he remembered a very important question: "Where is Her Majesty?"

Nie Jialin replied: "In the study!"

"It's too much!" Hearing this, the chief guard began to get angry again: "As the chief of the guard, I don't even know where His Majesty is, and I need someone to tell me!"

Nie Jialin ignored the anger of the chief of the guard, and just followed the chief of the guard, not saying a word.

Of course, the chief guard knew where Amelia's study was, so he went straight to the door, waited until he got to the door, tidied up his clothes, and then knocked lightly.

Amelia heard a knock on the door and beckoned, "Come in." ”

The attendant who was in charge of opening the door was pushed aside by the Blood Lion mercenary, and there was no one in charge of opening the door, so the captain of the guard had to push the door in by himself.

Despite holding back the fire in his belly, the chief guard didn't dare to be too presumptuous in front of Amelia, and he had always behaved.

After entering the door, the chief guard was about to walk up to Amelia, but was stopped by Nie Jialin.

The head of the guard glared angrily: "What are you rushing for?"

"Don't forget our agreement. Nie Jialin reminded lightly: "Please hand over your weapons." ”

"This is in the royal palace. The head of the guard's face turned red: "I'm the head of the guard, and I'm responsible for the security here, why did you ask me to hand over my weapon!"

"You have already said it just now...... Nie Jialin was also a little angry: "After seeing Her Majesty the Queen, you will naturally hand over your weapons, do you need me to remind you what you have promised?"

The chief guard was a little embarrassed: "What if I don't pay it?"

Cang Hao said beside him: "Mr. Chief Guard, don't forget that you are a nobleman, and as a nobleman, you must keep your promises." ”

This is a very good saying, and the European aristocracy has always attached great importance to promises and cherished their reputations.

The chief of the guard was not far from being reprimanded, and honestly handed over the gun to Nie Jialin, then walked up to Amelia, and then knelt on one knee.

Amelia reached for her hand, and the chief guard kissed it on the back of her hand.

After completing this set of etiquette, the chief of the guard accused: "Your Majesty, I think you should intervene in what the Blood Lion mercenaries are doing......"

Amelia was slightly stunned: "Why?"

"The guards are now under the centralized custody of the Blood Lion mercenaries, and there is no freedom of movement......," the chief of the guard said very angrily, "As the Queen's Guard, we should be the closest people to Your Majesty, but we are now on our own land, and our freedom of movement is restricted by others." ”

"I see what you mean. Amelia nodded, "You know, the situation is special now, there are traitors in the palace. ”

"Traitors will definitely be eliminated. The chief of the guard said without hesitation: "Please Your Majesty believe in the guards and give us a chance!"

"Of course I believe you. Amelia nodded: "But until the matter is investigated, everyone is suspicious, of course certain measures must be taken." ”

"Why are Blood Lion mercenaries free to move around. The chief guard glanced at Cang Hao hatefully, and then said, "Could it be that these foreigners are more trustworthy than us?"

"Is this ......" Amelia sighed, "At least for now!"

The chief guard was stunned when he heard this: "Why?"

Without waiting for Amelia to answer, Cang Hao told the chief of the guard: "I will definitely let you know the specific reason, but not now." ”

The head of the guard asked coldly, "What kind of reason?"

"I said I'd let you know when the time was right. Cang Hao said word by word: "In short, at present, the Blood Lion mercenaries are indeed more reliable than the guards, so Her Majesty's security work will be taken over by us for the time being." ”

The chief guard was furious: "Why do you order me like that?"

"I'm not ordering you. Cang Hao said lightly: "This arrangement is currently the most reasonable, it can ensure the safety of Her Majesty to the greatest extent, if there are really traitors within the guard, it will cause very serious consequences." ”

Amelia nodded: "That's it." ”

The chief of the guard was reluctant to accept it: "Your Majesty, have you really thought about it......"

"I've thought about it. Amelia nodded with great certainty: "Everything will be done according to the arrangement of the Blood Lion mercenaries." ”

The chief guard was stunned: "This ......"

"There's nothing else to do for the time being, you can go down. Amelia waved her hand helplessly: "I'm a little tired." ”

Although the chief guard was reluctant, he had no choice, and kissed Amelia on the back of his hand again, and then left with hatred.

Nie Jialin still followed him, but he didn't embarrass the head of the guard, and returned the gun after leaving the study.

However, the chief guard did not appreciate it and glared at Nie Jialin viciously.

Amelia didn't care about the guard's mood at all, and after the guardkeeper left, she hurriedly asked Cang Hao, "What's going on with all this?"

Cang Hao did not answer, but ordered: "Capture that captive." ”

Two henchmen, one was killed on the spot, and the other was knocked to the ground by the Blood Lion mercenaries.

After Cang Hao covered Amelia and returned to the study, the two Blood Lion mercenaries arrested the follower.

However, the Blood Lion mercenary told Cang Hao that the attendant took advantage of everyone's unpreparedness and committed suicide by taking poison.

He was wearing braces, which were supposed to contain cyanide, and it looked like the hospital didn't want to leave anything alive.

Amelia shook her head bitterly: "He has followed the royal family for so many years, why did he rebel?!"

"Why did Rebzer rebel, the reason is actually the same. Cang Hao told Amelia: "As I said before, the list we got is not all, there must be more people who have been treated by Legerman Hospital, even including those around His Majesty." ”

"Could it be...... He is also a client of the hospital in Le Geemann?"

"It's possible. Cang Hao nodded: "Before we get the full list, we don't know who the customers are." Considering that your citizens are generally very wealthy, many of you should have visited private hospitals abroad, which is also the strength of Le Geemann Hospital. If I don't agree with their peace talks, they will retaliate and attack you directly. ”
