By the time all the things that needed to be dealt with were done, it was already evening.

King Ferdinand announced the end of the court in high spirits, and then left through the side door, surrounded by the guards.

Immediately afterwards, the impatient magnates of the wealthy who had been waiting for a long time got up and walked out of the council hall in twos and threes.

When the magnates were almost gone, the nobles of the court got up and walked outside the main hall.

They whispered about what had happened today, and the king openly called out the two families, making the nobles aware of the impending storm.

Many people have worries on their faces and don't know what to do.

Out of the gate, the nobles did not leave directly, and now it is the most critical moment, every time they get a little useful news, it is possible to change the fate of someone, or even a certain family, and they can't ignore it.

They invited each other to find a hotel to have a few drinks.

One is to promote relations with other nobles, and the other is to discuss the matter of the day in order to make the best choice between the king and the two families.

Renard didn't bother to pay attention to this, he strode out of the main hall and walked straight in the direction of the palace gate.

However, as soon as he took a few steps, he felt a sharp gaze lock on him.

He couldn't help frowning, and then forgot about the past in the direction where his gaze came.

At this time, Count Mackinto was standing in the shade of a tree in the distance, looking at him with a complicated expression, with the other party as the center, and dozens of nobles standing around him.

Among them, there were many feudal officials such as Count Gauld and Earl Fowler, as well as important court officials such as Count Wilde, and princes and nobles such as Baron Plit.

This shows how much influence the Cronin family had in the Kingdom of Arthur.

Paying attention to Count Mackinto's gaze, the nobles around him also looked over to Renard's side.

One of the most uncomfortable things for Renard was Count Gauld's gaze, which was as sharp as a falcon, as if it was staring at the prey that was about to be taken.

There was resentment and hatred in the depths of his brown eyes, as if this incident was provoked by Lei Ye.

Renard looked at him calmly, and then slashed his neck twice as if demonstratively, and the corners of his mouth outlined an extremely strange smile.

Such a simple gesture made Count Gaulder's heart chill slightly, and he immediately reacted, his emotions were expressed too explicitly, completely ignoring the identity and status of the other party.

It's not at the court meeting now, and if the other party makes a move against him now, the king will definitely not let people stop him.

Thinking of Lei Ye's elusive body, he couldn't help but shudder, hurriedly turned his head away, and focused all his attention on Count Mackinto.

The other minor nobles did not dare to continue to stare at Lei Ye, so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings, they were just court nobles with little power, and they did not dare to argue with a feudal official like Renard.

Seeing this, Renard smiled sarcastically, and gained a deeper understanding of these guys who bullied the weak and feared the hard.

No wonder King Ferdinand chose to make trouble at the court meeting, I am afraid that it is for these people to see, as long as they leave a majestic and domineering image in their hearts, they are not afraid of them behind their backs.

Thinking about this, he shook his head slightly, and then turned to leave.

At this moment, Count Edward suddenly walked over and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Governor Renard." ”

Renard turned his head to look at the other party, with a strange expression on his face: "Where does the joy come from?"

Without waiting for Count Edward to reply, Count Eliot jumped out of nowhere and laughed: "To gain the trust of His Majesty the King, Governor Renard is not far from soaring." ”

As soon as the words fell, Marquis Lyton, Marquis Steinbeck, and Magister Frank walked over with compliments to each other, and the three of them nodded kindly at Renard at the same time.

Marquis Steinbeck joked: "Congratulations, Governor Renard, you have the absolute trust of Your Majesty, and I am afraid that I will have to rely on you more in the future." ”

Renard felt that this old guy had something to say, but it was not easy to ask directly, so he had to respond with a ashamed face: "You are laughing." ”

Now the lineup around Lei Ye can be described as strong, and the limelight directly overshadows Count Mackinto.

The Count of Wilde, who was standing in the distance, smiled and said, "Humility makes people progress, pride makes people perish, and we, the governor of Reynard, don't know how proud we are now." ”

He meant something, implying that Lei Ye was not far from falling.

However, Count Mackinto does not have such a good mentality as Earl Wilde, although he has not been in contact with Lei Ye for a long time, but he has a very thorough understanding of Lei Ye.

This is a person with an extremely peaceful mind and an extremely mature mind, and at the same time, he has a huge amount of power, and it is not easy to deal with this kind of character.

Hearing Count Wilde's hint, Count Gauld suddenly snorted coldly, he directly turned the muzzle of the gun at his companion, and sneered: "You are not worried at all. ”

Count Wilde didn't know what the other party was crazy about, so he couldn't help frowning and asked, "What do you mean by this?" ”

What do you mean?Count Gauld took a deep breath, and his eyes seemed to be able to breathe fire: "Thank you for providing this accurate information, which made me show my face at the court. ”

The surrounding nobles secretly looked at each other, and they faintly wanted to laugh in their hearts.

It's a big shame, right!

Count Wilde pretended to be surprised: "Is there something wrong with my ears, your tone seems not very happy, as if you are reproaching me." ”

Count Gauld was still sneering: "Then you should go and look at your ears, I am obviously grateful, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't have become a thorn in the side of Governor Renard." ”

His anger was actually directed at Earl Mackinto, after all, he was the pawn that the other party let him act as.

However, Count Gauld knew in his heart that he could not afford to offend the Cronin family, so he had to find a scapegoat.

Count Mackinto, of course, knew that the other party was venting his inner dissatisfaction, and he sighed slightly and explained: "I was really surprised that Governor Renard openly supported His Majesty. ”

"It happened suddenly, and we didn't have the evidence to make a fuss, so we fell behind, and we couldn't blame anyone. ”

Count Gauld snorted coldly: "Whoever provided the news, he has the responsibility to act as a bird, instead of finding someone else to take the risk." ”

Count Weld knew that the other party was targeting him, and frowned and explained: "The news I got from the Ministry of Intelligence with great difficulty, and it must be true and reliable. ”

Count Gauld scoffed at his words: "True, if that were the case, it would not be the situation it is now." ”

Seeing that the two of them had the intention of pinching each other, Count Mackinto hurriedly came out to play a round, and after a moment's consideration, he said to Earl Wilde: "The next time you provide information, I hope you can come up with solid and reliable evidence." ”

As he spoke, he looked at Count Gauld again: "This matter is my negligence, I hope you don't mind." ”

He was impartial, obviously trying to be a peacemaker.
