Hebrew retired and went to deal with the affairs of the penitent family. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The window on one side of the living room faces the stone square, and you can see it from the window. Gu Hanhan grabbed the curtains, and soon saw the entire team of family guards hugging an attendant to come to the confessing people. The attendant made a statement, and all the confessors were lifted up and dragged up the steps of the main hall. Gu Hanhan vaguely saw that under the ring of the Hu Guards, they knelt down on the steps of the main hall of the memorial hall in turn, took the slender short sword and slashed into their bodies. In the haze, blood splattered, and their bodies tumbled down the steps, where they were caught by the guards and carried away in a sleep box.
"It's nothing to look at," David walked up to Gu Hanhan and gently held her shoulder, "It's just a necessary ritual." β
The door to the living room opened, and the Hebrews returned. He was followed by a dozen attendants. Each attendant wore white gloves and held a crystal bottle to his chest, and in the crystal crystal wall of the crystal bottle was a bright red heartβthey were still alive, and they were "fluttering" and beating.
"Heart! that's the heart!" Gu Hanhan's scalp exploded, pointing to those crystal bottles and saying in a lost voice, "They dug out their hearts!"
"Don't be afraid, Hanhan, they're just using this ritual to prove that they're still loyal. Of course it's very stupid, but it's still alive when you put it back, and the ritual is just a ritual. David hugged Gu Hanhan and comforted him with an energy field. Then he waved his hand, and the attendants all withdrew with crystal bottles in their hands.
"Put it back......," Gu Hanhan wiped his forehead, "This is indeed too stupid and barbaric." β
Hebrew told David about the results of the disposal, and Gu Hanhan sat in the corner of the sofa and asked Gal secretly: "Will it really be put back?"
"Not all," Gal whispered, "if the master wants to keep any of them, or send them to the sacrifice, of course there is no way to put them back. β
"But it doesn't make a difference, anyway, even if the heart is returned by the master, these people can no longer be the patriarch of the vassal family, and they must go into hiding. Gal said.
This is indeed the case, Gu Hanhan turned his head, and Hebrew happened to talk about the change of patriarchs of these families.
"They have been ordered to leave the Acropolis at once and go into seclusion in the monastery of the family domain," he proclaimed, "and the new patriarch, as your most devout servant, will receive the coat of arms before formally coming to pay homage to you." β
When David heard this, he asked, "Who is the new patriarch of the family of Petroni?"
That's what it means to specify it yourself.
Hebrew immediately ordered the complete genealogy of the Petroni family to be delivered. In the superpower family, the suzerain rarely interferes in the internal affairs of the vassal family and the change of heirs, but once he intends to designate it, he cannot be disobeyed.
Petroni is a family of long-established thorn branches, a large family tree with a large and unhealthy tree, with a leafy canopy of leaflets, each of which hangs down many veins and leaves representing family members, members with supernatural potential will have a gold edge, and those who have been sacrificed as vassals are painted red. It's chaotic and dazzling, and there are more than a thousand people who have both blood and superpower potential, so they are qualified to inherit the family. David turned the family tree a few times by fiddling with the branches, and pointed at a slender vein between the branches: "This is it." β
"Yes. Hebrew replied respectfully, and then took the family tree of the Petroni family into his hands. He found that the successor personally designated by the master was a member of the side branch of the Petroni family, whose blood was far away to seven or eight generations away, and his superpower level was only at the fourth level, and he was not too young, he was already forty* years old but could not talk about any high-level potential at all.
Such a bloodline and such a level of superpower can only be a side line in the huge Thorn Branch family, and the mediocrity and ordinariness are annihilated among many Acropolis masters and young masters. For a while, the Hebrew chief attendant didn't see what was so special about him that could be appreciated by his master's blue eyes.
Gu Hanhan listened to it beside him, and he didn't feel any interest in this kind of drama of a middle-aged uncle in his forties and fifties who changed the dynasty and turned into a phoenix as soon as he was lured to the branches, and he thought that he was frightened just now, so he simply threw David away, took Gar to the hot springs for a big meal, and was shocked.
After Gu Hanhan's figure disappeared at the end of the corridor, Hebrew mentioned another potential person on the lighthouse star to David.
"In the days when the master and Miss Gu were gone, the Lord Anthony had a very close relationship with the old gentleman of the De Philin family," he said, "and he frequented the banquets of the Del Philin and the other families, and did not refuse to make friends with the various families and nations. It should soon be accepted as a vassal of the family to start a family on its own, or simply simply take on an existing noble family name. β
"Family name?" David held the coffee cup and couldn't help frowning, "Do you mean marriage?"
"Yes, master. Hebrew bowed slightly, and said, "After losing the duel at the Golden Banquet, His Excellency did not have a regular female companion by his side, and he was not in and out of the banquet very much, so he paid a lot of attention to some young ladies from the Acropolis family. Therefore, several families took the opportunity to offer their daughters to him, and although he did not accept it, he did not strictly refuse it. It is said that Lord Rhine had secretly met with him, and that the old gentleman of the House of Delphilin had intended to arrange a marriage contract between him and his little granddaughter, and that Lord Rhine's sister, Miss Anne, seemed to have a lot of affection for him, so she could not decide for a while. But in any case, His Excellency is deeply involved in the Bossis Restoration Alliance, and it is already difficult to get out, if you want to make a move, and if you want to make a breakthrough in the WTO, you must have strong support, and it is inevitable that you will fall to the Dark Temple. β
David slowly finished his coffee and was silent for a while before he commanded, "These things will be hidden from Hanhan for the time being." β
"Yes," Hebrew replied, and then asked, "the child adopted by Miss Gu is still in her residence in Xinghua Lane, will someone be sent to pick it up?"
David said "hmm" and said, "Don't ask about that kid first, Hanhan and I have other plans." β
Hebrew was surprised, but he didn't ask any questions, and bowed and retired.
At the same time, Gu Hanhan also drove away the servants around him and secretly dialed the communication to Anthony. The "holiday" is over, and he finally returns to the lighthouse star safely, so I have to tell him quickly, and by the way, tell him that I will probably have to go home a few days later.
- Anthony didn't answer the communication again!
And this time, the person who answered the communication was not even one or two of the valets!
Gu Hanhan stared at the communication projection, and in the end he only saw Sasha's fat face.
"Anthony is out?" Gu Hanhan was a little dazed, and then complained angrily, "Why doesn't he bring a phone!"
Sasha thought to himself, "When did he bring the phone again?" and replied, "Your Excellency went to the banquet at Defilin's house." β
Defilin's ......
Gu Hanhan turned a corner in his mind and remembered that the De Filin family was not Sister Rowling's fool's fiancΓ©'s family, the family of the Templar Knight Rhine.
"How did he get mixed up with them?"
"Because of the Posisian Zionist Alliance," Sasha replied, "for the last twenty years Percisis has been the main battlefield between the two camps, both inside and outside, and it is precisely because of the covert support of the Dark Temple that although Ogra annexed Posis, he has not been able to completely conquer it, resulting in many internal hidden dangers." This time, the extroverted camp launched a large-scale counterattack under the pretext of the assassination of the emperor, and the introverted camp shrank across the board, so outside the battlefield on the surface, the Dark Temple and the Rhine Knights will definitely stir up trouble in Posis, support potential people to charge for them, and carry out a major restoration movement, so as to destabilize Ogra and even weaken the entire outward camp. Therefore, the lord intends to take the opportunity to solve all the problems of Posis in one fell swoop. β
Gu Hanhan was amazed. She had just witnessed the changes in the general trend of the universe turning into clouds and rain from David, and now she had seen Anthony control this general trend and the powerful hand of calling the wind and rain to play with the entire universe in the palm of his hand, and she felt that her understanding of this universe and the upper political ecology of the universe had risen to a new level.
"In other words, Anthony intends to become the leader of the Posis Zionist alliance himself, and then let the Dark Temple take the initiative to support him, cultivate him, and support him? Finally, expect him to destroy the good situation of the stability and unity of the entire outward camp?"
"It's so lacking!" she looked at the fat face on the other side of the comm with great amusement, "I don't know what you think, Mr. Sasha, anyway, I've refreshed my knowledge of the word 'bastard' - he can make me refresh every time! This guy is so black! The god of the universe really wants to have a spirit, why did he still confiscate him?"
Sasha's chubby face smiled with a Mona Lisa, and he was screaming inwardly: "That's right, he's this kind of person, black-hearted, rotten belly - chick, you're so right!"
Gu Hanhan was also unsatisfied, and continued: "Is he just going to break into the enemy's interior like this?
Sasha's face froze, revealing a look of embarrassment, and Ai Ai said: "Actually, the Defilin family proposed to marry the patriarch's little granddaughter to the adultβ"
Gu Hanhan was stunned for a moment, and his smile froze on his face: "What are you talking about?"
"Also...... And the Ann ...... of the Defilin family Miss Anne, she also seems to love...... Love...... I'm in love with adults......"
"Anne-miss?" Gu Hanhan was furious and asked viciously, "What the hell is that?!"
"It's not a ghost," Sasha's tongue smoothed out, "Miss Anne is Lord Rhine's own sister - but don't worry, Miss, the Deflin family doesn't dare to openly support it, because Lord Rhine doesn't allow her sister to fall in love or get engaged at all!
Fight in the ring?
Gu Hanhan's mind calmed down a little, and he secretly pondered in a bad mood: What is this guy doing Anthony? Is he doing it on purpose? Is he playing balance with left and right? This bastard! No wonder he lost so smoothly at the golden banquet, it turned out that he had already calculated it! This bastard! Sister let him be blinded again!
