Section 2 Outsiders

Pedi felt that this celebration was a complete irony, and he would not attend.

"That's a pity!" said the assistant with a smile, knowing very well what his boss was thinking, and this invitation was just a symbolic invitation from Gus El's basic courtesy of the nobility.

Yes, Pedi will leave the guard in a short time, and yesterday afternoon Pedi's father asked him to resign from the guard and told him that this was what His Majesty the Emperor meant.

Pedi wanted to refuse, but instinctively agreed, because he couldn't find a reason, and besides, it was too much for him to come to the guard office.

This time, the contradictions at the top of the security department seemed to have erupted in an instant, and Peidi didn't even react.

He's like a spectator, an outsider in the middle of the game.

In Bernie's case, even a child who knows a little truth can understand that he has been wronged.

However, everyone, including Pedi's father, does not care about the case itself, they only care about the result, and only care about the impact of the case on themselves.

This case touched Peidi deeply, he knew that he was no longer a child in a greenhouse, and that he would have to face many of these things alone in the future, and those things would require him to see the truth through the fog and distinguish between right and wrong.

On the high platform, Gus El began his speech after confirming Bernie's death.

Listening to his speech, Pedi didn't want to stay in this place any longer, he quietly squeezed into the crowd, and walked away with Hu from Wren...

After walking out of the headquarters of the Security Service, Peidi turned around and looked at the headquarters building seriously and asked, "How is Collier's arrangement?"

"He says he wants to follow you. Wren shrugged.

"Very good idea," Pedi was stunned, but not too surprised, "tell him that I'll think about it." After a pause, he added, "It seems that you have a good conversation." ”

"All I can say is... He's a good chatter, sir. Wren said this, and he suddenly thought about something, and hurriedly added, "By the way, there is a woman named Martha who wants to see you, and her men have found this side of the apartment." ”

Pedi was stunned for a moment, then remembered the outside of the guard who he had almost forgotten.

......

On the same afternoon as Bernie's sentencing, in the private court of the Emperor Lionburg, Emperor Laubert welcomed one of his important guests: his wife's brother, Eric Jean, Guardian of Felder and one of the six dukes of the Locke Empire.

Eric has silver-white hair, which is a testament to his family's bloodline... Most of the people in the Jean family are handsome and handsome, or 'pretty'.

Legend has it that the nobles of the Field Lords are an offshoot of the elves, a group of elves who have been spurned by the forces of nature, and they are unable to have a permanent life like traditional elves, and their life forms are more like humans.

In the great war three hundred years ago, this group of people chose to break away from the most powerful elven kingdom on the continent at that time, and turned to the side of humans, and even became the main force of the human war against the elves.

The band of the men fought with the elves more than humans expected, and soon they won the trust of Danediv I and entrusted them with important tasks. At the end of the war, the group led a force that voluntarily and permanently stationed outside the Naryn Forest to confront and fight against their original compatriots.

So, at the suggestion of Prime Minister Archduke Patvede, Danediv I bestowed the vast expanse of land outside the Naryn Forest to the leader of the group at that time, Horus Jean, the ancestor of the Jean family.

Later, that land slowly evolved into today's Duchy of Feld.

In the Emperor's private drawing-room, maids are carefully serving wine and pastries to their masters.

Laubert sat with his wife, Empress Douber, and Duke Eric sat quietly at the head of the two.

The three of them seemed to have a good conversation, the Emperor laughed heartily from time to time, and Duke Eric bowed his head gracefully when the Emperor laughed.

...

"I'm sorry about the Marquis of Fett, but he has to die. Emperor Laubert said something abruptly, and as he had finished speaking, he looked at Duke Eric, at the handsome face that made him jealous.

"Your Majesty, the reason why Marquis Fett was able to do these things is simply because of your connivance. ”

Duke Eric hadn't spoken yet, but Empress Dibert was the first to speak, she obviously hated her younger brother, but she still had an opinion on the execution of Fett, after all, it was her younger brother, she put away the smile on her face, and said coldly: "He could have gone through his life quietly like a civilian, but you had to push him step by step behind his back to get to the present." ”

"I didn't call him embezzlement of military spending, it was millions of gold coins. Although Laubert was talking to his wife, his eyes were always on Duke Eric.

The queen was sarcastic, "You know better than me where the money goes, so this is the most fundamental reason why Fett must die." ”

"Oh, come on, the Jeans have made a lot of money, too. "The emperor directly pointed out the key to it.

The husband and wife thought that this kind of quarrel often occurred, and the head maid in the room waved off all the maids when they had just quarreled, and even she herself cautiously retreated to the door.

"Your Majesty, the Jean family and Fett are only the most basic business dealings. Duke Eric could no longer remain silent, "Before Fett appeared, it was a habit for the military to purchase repeating crossbows in Felder Territory, heavy armor in Karon Territory, war horses in Crewe City and Twak City, and longbows in Crane Territory, and it was the most normal transaction for each family to earn a portion of the fees from them. ”

"But what about the equipment?" the Emperor's eyebrows were already angry.

"Your Majesty, we haven't received an order from the military headquarters for a long time, and the Dominions are almost the same everywhere, Fitt deceived you, and you..."

But what he meant was already obvious.

During these five years, the emperor used the large sums of money provided by Fett to live a life of luxury.

This is no secret for a long time.

"Fett is no longer a member of the Jean family, and his life and death have not been my business since I banished him from the realm. Then, in a cold tone, Eric said that he did not look like he was lying, and that the coldness in the bones of the Jean family was more famous than the lace news of Emperor Laubert.

Hearing this, the gloomy color in Laubert's eyes flashed, and he smiled casually, with a serious look on his face, and leaned lazily on the sofa and said: "However, the nobles of the empire will not think so, Fitt has always had the blood of the Jean family in his body, and in his case, many nobles of the Felder Collar were involved, and the reports of the security department and the court applying for investigation every day were piled up on the prime minister's desk, and at the same time, those stubborn guards even threatened to forcibly interrogate the relevant personnel. ”
