The fat man met the strange gazes of Roger and Monroe, his face was pale and a little ashamed. His face is still far inferior to that of his father.

The dinner ended in such a strange atmosphere. The servants arranged for the three of them to rest first, and the Thorn Duke took Pei Enmai's guard chief to the study, and he must have learned the details of the attack!

The thorny man, who was listening to Pei Enmai's story, had a smile on his face, rubbing his chin and falling into some kind of conjecture, but did not speak. Pei Enmai stood bent, seeing the smile on the corner of the lord's mouth gradually expanding, knowing that the lord was fantasizing about "my son" making great plans again, he couldn't help but feel a little helpless, and reminded:

"Sir......"

The duke's fat body trembled suddenly, and he came back to his senses, "Oh, oh...... Where's that?"

Pei Enmai said helplessly: "Rogge killed the old man of the wind!"

The duke suddenly realized, rubbed his cheeks, and said, "Ao...... Rogge is not a simple person, he can beat the old man who has been famous for many years, and it is also very extraordinary for my son to be friends with such a genius!"

"Sir, Rogge killed the old man. Pei Enmai's expression was solemn, and he felt that the duke's focus was biased again, and he said eagerly: "Although he is very happy to do this, but without a witness, I am afraid that it will have an adverse impact on the dispute between the lord and the court......

The Duke of Thorns leaned back in his chair, his gaze cold.

Pei Enmai tried to explain the stakes, but was glanced at by the lord lightly, and his back was cold, and he stopped abruptly in the middle of his words, as if he had been poured a basin of cold water from his head to the end.

The lord was not angry because of his words, the lord has always been friendly, and when he is interested, he will say a few words when he meets ordinary servants, and he is not afraid of the presumptions of his subordinates.

Could it be that he likes Rogge's talent and wants to entrap him?! No, even if Rogge is extremely talented, he will not be so favored by the powerful lord!

Pei Enmai sweated like rain, and felt like his back was soaked.

The study fell silent for a moment, the smile on Duke Thorn's face gradually retracted, glanced at the chief of the guard, let out a sigh, and got up to pour him a cup of tea.

"Pennema!" said the Duke suddenly, "do you know why I want you to pick up Murray?"

Pei Enmai stood respectfully, not daring to move, the tea poured by the lord was placed on the table in front of him, and he didn't dare to look at it if he thought he had done something wrong.

A faint hint of disappointment flashed in the duke's eyes, it is not a good thing to be too humble! Secretly overturned several of his previous decisions in his heart, and in an instant, his face was as usual.

"Humble duty is the henchman cultivated by the lord since childhood, and it is also rest assured that the lord will go to the lord. This was Pei Enmai's previous thoughts, and now listening to the lord's tone there is another layer of deep meaning, but he can't figure it out, so he can only say it honestly according to his previous thoughts.

"This is also a kind of tempering for you!" the Duke raised his eyelids lightly, shook his head and said: "Short-sighted, too careful, looking forward and backward, these are all things you need to correct!"

Pei Enmai was a little dazed, and Thorn Gongfu sighed again and said, "The moment you recognize the identity of the old man Qifeng, I have already won, you know?"

Duke Thorn snorted lightly and said, "As long as I can give the royal family an explanation, I will act in the Thorn vein, where do I need any evidence!"

Even if someone doubts it, it is a small group of people who don't understand thorns, and they can't make any waves. The Thorn Pulse never minds the struggle for power, let alone unscrupulous means for this, this is the arrogance engraved in the bones of Thorns, which is well known to the court.

The royal family and the courtiers in power would never think that he would deliberately frame his opponent! As a big man who has been inherited for thousands of years and has leaned towards one side, Duke Thorn has this kind of self-confidence!

"How dare you use a siege crossbow?!" Thorn Gong showed a sneer, "It's also a shame that he wants to get it!"

A trace of anger flashed in the duke's eyes, and the opponent really wanted to make him the last one! If the thorn vein really had no successor, it would undoubtedly be a huge blow to his power in the court. It's a pity that the other party is too confident in the old man, but he didn't expect to be cooked by an eighteen-year-old boy!

Thorn Gong glanced at Pei Enmai, who was standing dumbfounded, and didn't dare to interject, since he had said this today, he didn't mind saying a few more words.

"What should the royal family think of using a military-made ballista to eliminate dissidents in the court! Even if I don't make a move, he will have to spread military power, and what strength does he have to fight with me?! As for the evidence you mentioned, how can a corpse be enough! The Duke of Thorns does not need a living person to testify!"

Duke Thorn's tone was indifferent, but Pei Enmai was soaked with sweat. He knelt on the ground with a plop, his face was pale, and said, "Sir, it's wrong to be humble!"

He had fully understood what the lord meant by looking ahead and looking ahead, and his doubts about Rogge, his hesitation and concern for the coming troubles, completely violated the teachings that Thorn One had taught him for the past twenty years.

Don't get into trouble, and don't be afraid of trouble!

Not to cause trouble is to remind them to be cautious in their words and deeds, and not to be afraid of trouble and not to be afraid of the enemy's attack is the foundation of the thorny vein!

The Duke looked at Pei Enmai, who was kneeling on the ground, slightly embarrassed, sighed softly, helped him up, and said in a slow tone: "Don't blame me for being harsh on you, I have watched you grow up, and my expectations for you are inevitably higher." ”

Pei Enmai's voice was bitter, "It's a humiliation to teach the lord, and the lord is not wrong in teaching!"

"Okay!" the lord patted him on the shoulder, and said with some feelings: "I remember that you were only seven or eight years old when you entered the reserve, and my father was still there at that time, and I had not yet inherited the title......"

"Yes, sir, when I was seven years old, the old lord saved the lowly position from the hands of the rogue, and after he came back, he entered the MTR City Reserve to cultivate, and he also had a bite to eat!" Pei Enmai's loyalty to the Thorn Pulse was partly due to his gratitude to the old man.

"You stopped me on the street and swore allegiance to the Badge of Thorns, almost beheading the guards at the time!" the Duke smiled and approvingly, "You have not broken your oath, and I see your loyalty!"

"It was indeed despicable and reckless at the beginning...... Pei Enmai was ashamed, "I also failed to live up to the cultivation of the lord!"

He has been cultivated by the lord since he was a child, and now he is not as good as an eighteen-year-old boy, Pei Enmai remembered Rogna's decisive kick, this is obviously not a person who is afraid of trouble!

"You......" The Duke shook his head with a smile, "It's also a moment of confusion, my son is much more shrewd!"

Pei Enmai looked up in amazement, and sure enough, he saw that the lord had returned to the state of the crazy son. I couldn't help but feel relieved, even if I was a strong person who had advanced to the third order with one kick in the door, it would be difficult to withstand the pressure of the lord getting serious!

"Yes," the chief guard echoed, "Although the young master is more than ten years old, the young master has not seen clearly, and the crossbow carts have been brought back!"

The duke was stunned, he really didn't know this, "Really brought it back?!"

Seeing Pei Enmai nodding, he immediately laughed. He decided to take the ballista to block the gate of the imperial city when he went to the court a few days later, and this time the opponent not only died faster, but the coffin board was nailed to death, and it was difficult to turn over.

"Haha, my son is really not simple!" the duke's face was full of pride, "My son is really, with the appearance of a country!"

Pei Enmai laughed awkwardly, but he didn't know how to respond!

Naturally, he didn't dare to refute the duke in some kind of fantasy with righteous words, and he really couldn't agree with it without skin and face!

The prime minister of the dynasty is really above ten thousand people under one person! In view of his huge power, the ancestral system cannot be hereditary. There is no precedent for a hereditary lord to serve as prime minister! Unless the royal family shows off their heads, it is absolutely impossible to let the little lord who inherits the thorny vein become the prime minister!
