Chapter 776: My Sister Sacrifices to the Heavens
As the head of the envoy group, Lin Shuo felt that he couldn't act.
With thick eyebrows and big eyes, he is not suitable for this kind of eight-sided delicate role.
Looking at it in the hunting team, Lao Wei's appearance and temperament are more positive than his own, and he doesn't look like it at first glance.
Su Dongdong is a woman, although men and women are equal in Daxizhou, but it is limited to the inheritance of titles, and there are still few women who are officials.
Yang Baokun is an honest man, and the drama is easy to keep up.
As for Ponweather and Don Kede, neither of them have yet to understand it, so don't send them this kind of task.
So in the end, the head of the envoy group could only let Miao Chengyun come.
In the past seven years, Miao Chengyun has grown a lot compared to before, and Lin Shuo has obviously felt in the past few days that now whether it is ability or intelligence, this person can fit with him.
It's just that the nature of the country is easy to change, and the expressive desire of this drama spirit is still so strong, so let him come to this job, which is appropriate.
For the past two days, the whole hunting party, plus Artemis, stayed in the Count's Mansion in the Earldom of Siran, where the owner was called Garcia.
This first place of residence after the landing was chosen by Artemis, and according to her, Garcia was different from the other siblings in that she had a very good relationship with her and was trustworthy.
Garcia is a scholar who has always had little interest in power, and the Earl's academic career has been full of ups and downs.
The ancestors of this family have been generals and martial artists for generations, and when it came to his father's old duke's generation, he was one of the top ten masters of the empire's combat power.
Garcia has been weak since he was a child, and he aspires to be a scholar, which is crooked, so he is not treated well by his family.
And the eldest sister Artemis was the only one in the family who supported him in his studies, not only funded him, but even used the marriage contract to ask the third prince of the empire to find Garcia the most prestigious university scholar in the empire as a teacher.
Garcia also lived up to his sister's cultivation, and after his studies were successful, he wrote books and said, and now he has a lot of fame in the entire empire.
So even if Garcia and Nemea are brothers, in terms of kinship, he is closer to Artemis and supports this sister to become a duke.
It's just that when the old duke died last year, Garcia had already been sealed out, and the strength in his hands was indeed not as good as Nemoa, which could watch the eldest sister being exiled and be in a hurry.
This time, the eldest sister came back from the sea and brought strong reinforcements, which was very good.
The sister and brother first hugged their heads and cried, and after crying, they began to make plans.
Lin Shuo could see that this Garcia was worthy of being a scholar, and he was obviously more thoughtful than Artemis.
Artemis felt that a group of people would enter the Duke's palace and just do it.
Garcia didn't think so, he felt that even with the help of Lin Shuo and others, there was still a gap in the overall strength of the two sides, and it was obviously unwise to fight hard.
So everyone came up with a plan together.
In the end, Lin Shuo and his group pretended to be imperial envoys and escorted Artemis to the Earldom of Beishan.
And Garcia himself went to meet with Nemoa in advance, and with a three-inch tongue, he rounded up the matter.
In this way, it is undoubtedly better to sneak in first, and then find the opportunity to suddenly attack.
Today, the plan has already begun, and Garcia has run to the border of the territory this morning to meet Nemea, who is walking the birds.
Lin Shuo and the others were waiting for news in the Earl's Palace.
It was almost noon, and the Garcia had not yet returned.
Everyone gathered in the living room of the Earl's Court and waited, among which Artemis had no master, and he couldn't sit still.
Lin Shuo looked at her expression and gave Miao Chengyun another look, which meant persuasion and steady the mind of the gold owner.
Of course, Lin Shuo himself can persuade him, but he has to take care of Su Dongdong's emotions around him, and don't get close to other beauties if it's okay.
Miao Chengyun comprehended, smiled, and said to Artemis: "County Lord, you also want to open up some things."
You were born with a golden key, which is unspeakably precious in the eyes of ordinary people.
It's just that in this world, the more expensive things are, the greater the price.
The higher a person goes, the more cold it gets.
How much weight does the family affection between father and son and brother have on the road to power, I believe you can see it better than me.
So Garcia's trip, no matter what the outcome is, you don't have to panic.
Even if he betrayed you, but actually went to tell Nemea, it doesn't matter.
We will protect you and fight your way out of the country to find your fiancΓ©.
When you look at the current situation as a princess, it will actually be a passing moment and insignificant. β
Lin Shuo listened to Miao Chengyun's words, and rolled his eyes.
I thought to myself, how can there be such a persuasion, isn't this a knife into someone's heart?
Sure enough, Artemis couldn't sit still, stood up all of a sudden, and said loudly: "Garcia will never betray me!"
"Oh. Miao Chengyun nodded, "Since you believe that Garcia will not betray you, why are you panicking now?"
"I'm afraid of ......," Artemis looked worried, and slowly sat back down, "He was seen by Nemea, and he can't come back." β
As soon as the words fell, there was a breeze in the living room, and Garcia, dressed in a cyan robe, appeared in front of everyone.
Garcia has been weak since he was a child, and he has no talent in martial arts, and that is by the standards of this family.
In Lin Shuo's eyes, this person's cultivation is actually still possible, and his cultivation strength is also at the level of the weak Nine Realms, Wei Xingshan, the most powerful soldier king in history, if he doesn't bring a gun, he really can't beat others.
Seeing Garcia returning, Artemis hurried up to meet him and asked, "How are things?"
Garcia bowed slightly: "Sister, he believes it." β
"Alright!" Artemis looked excited, "and when are we leaving?"
"Don't worry. Garcia quickly waved his hand, "This is only the first step, the next thing is troublesome, we have to think about it clearly." β
"Next...... Isn't it true that we will act on the fly after we get in?" Artemis wondered, "It's all about being on the spot, what's the point of discussing it now?"
"That's not it. Sister, please take a seat. Garcia sat down, and then said to Lin Shuo: "Mr. Lin, I also want to hear your opinion on this matter." β
"Please. Lin Shuo said.
"Actually, Nemea is just a martial artist, and it is not difficult to deal with him. "But the question is what to do after dealing with it." β
"What to do?" Artemis asked.
"Oh, my sister. Garcia was helpless and said, "Have you forgotten what crime you are carrying now? β
"That's Nemoa who framed me. Artemis looked ashamed, "How could I do such a shameless thing?"
"Sister, it's not a question of whether you do it or not. "It's a question of whether others believe it or not." β
Artemis froze, she stared blankly at her brother, tears streaming down her eyes.
Garcia sighed and said slowly, "People have brought out the evidence.
Yes, it's a forgery, but it's already being trusted.
Everyone believes it, and it is being preached, and the more it is spread, the more evil it becomes.
Our envoy group is fake, but the emperor's anger is real, the royal family is disgraced, and the emperor is furious!
If you don't clear your name, even if you get rid of Nemea, let alone the duke's position, you won't be able to gain a foothold in the local area.
If you want me to help, sister, I'll definitely go out and help.
But after this is over, I don't care as a scholar, even if I don't have a territory, I can go around lecturing, at least I don't have to worry about my livelihood.
So what should you do, sister?
What about this inheritance that my father has laid?
At that time, our entire principality will suffer the wrath of the royal family because of you, and it will disappear in an instant. β
Garcia's words pressed Artemis firmly on the chair, his expression sad, and he wept silently.
The county lord thought for a long time, as if she was finally desperate, she raised a pair of teary eyes, and her whole body trembled slightly: "Then ...... Burn me to death. β
"Sister!" Garcia stood up abruptly, "how can you say that?
"But what else can be done?" Artemis muttered, "You're right, if I don't die, the Duchy won't survive." In order to preserve the principality, I can only die. β
"No! there must be another way!" Garcia paced back and forth in the living room, and then looked at Lin Shuo, "Mr. Lin, you are a smart person, what do you think?"
Lin Shuo was already yawning at this moment.
Last night was the first time the hunting team spent the night on the Great West Continent, and the night in the exotic land made Su Dongdong very excited.
finally settled the fourth lady, and the Queen Mother of the West ran out again, saying that if she could live with Lin Shuo on the territory of the "Heavenly Master", she also thought it was very interesting.
So the head of the hunting door almost didn't close his eyes last night, with a body and two souls, covering the upper and lower half of the night.
Of course, with Lin Shuo's physical strength and energy, it is not a big problem to not fit his eyes overnight, and he will not be sleepy.
The main reason for the sleepiness is that the current drama is boring.
When he made a plan with Garcia yesterday, Lin Shuo didn't talk much.
Because all he knows about Garcia is to listen to Artemis, and Lin Shuo doesn't trust this woman's judgment.
So when discussing the strategy yesterday, Lin Shuo was silent, and it was all up to Garcia to take the lead, just to see what the earl wanted to do.
At this point, this is clear.
Persuade the eldest sister Artemis with the righteousness of the country, so that she is willing to be burned to death, dissolve the anger of the royal family, and the principality can be preserved.
The second brother Nemea was killed by the eldest sister again, and the position of duke was already unstable, but now it is simply vacant.
Then according to the primogeniture law, the next duke will have to be Garcia, the third.
This scholar who doesn't seem to be interested in power turned out to be playing a trick, and now he is called his sister to sacrifice to the sky.
Now Garcia has come to ask for his opinion, in fact, he is trying to win over his own group of foreign aid that suddenly appeared.
Presumably, in Garcia's heart, if he is a man who understands, he will definitely abandon Artemis and turn to him.
Because the matter is clear, the emperor is angry, and unless Artemis loses his life, the matter will not be solved.
And the reward promised by Artemis, Garcia can also give, even more.
This information, in addition to Lin Shuo, it is obvious that Miao Chengyun has also tasted it.
Principal Miao looked at Lin Shuo with a playful expression at this time, and was also waiting for his statement.
And Lin Shuo finished this long yawn and said:
"The deal we took this time is to help the Lord of Artemis kill her second brother Nemea, and we don't care about anything else, as long as you can pay as promised.
It makes no difference whether the Lord of Artemis pays or the Count Garcia. β
Garcia looked at Lin Shuo's eyes and was originally a little jealous, but when he heard Lin Shuo's words, he relaxed a lot.
But this scene is good, turned around and knelt down in front of his sister, and cried on the ground:
"Sister, it's all my brother's incompetence!"
Artemis was not a very smart woman, but it would be foolish not to understand that the stake was not far ahead, and the oil was about to be poured on her.
It's just that she is stronger than others, and she is now also heartbroken.
She looked at her third brother with a complicated expression, and said quietly: "When I helped you study, I just thought that we had at least one smart person in our family.
Otherwise, it's just a group of martial artists, and it's hard to preserve the inheritance of the fathers.
Now it seems that I made a good move.
After my death, the Duchy of Mia will be up to you. β
"Sister!"
Garcia took a few steps on his knees, grabbed Artemis' legs, and wailed.
Lin Shuo touched his stomach and asked, "I'm a little hungry, do you care about food here?"
