Renard was a little baffled, and he didn't know what kind of crazy thing this guy was smoking.

However, a few insiders were secretly laughing at themselves, and the Cronin family suffered a dumb loss this time.

So was all this money the result of the robbery of Viscount Hozia?

Of course not!

Although Viscount Hozia was only an ordinary court nobleman living in Kale County on the surface, he was secretly one of the business leaders arranged by the Cronin family in the Kale County area.

These gold coins were indeed slowly accumulated by him, but not his own, but the Cronin family.

Because the money came from improper sources, some of it was obtained from the resale of military supplies, some were obtained from monopoly transactions, and some were obtained from corruption and interception in the Honeysuckle Chamber of Commerce, so it has never seen the light of day.

I don't know where the Marquis of Trolope got the news, but he turned over the money.

Count Mackinto is now mute and eats coptis, and he can't tell if he suffers.

People have already decided that this is stolen money, and he can't jump out at this time and say that the money belongs to the Cronin family.

That would probably lead to stealing chickens and rice, putting the family at a disadvantage in this game, and he had no evidence to prove that the money belonged to the Cronin family.

Viscount Hozia trembled with anger when he heard the Marquis of Trolope reversing black and white there, and it took him a long time to say: "This money was not robbed. ”

When the Marquis of Trollope heard this, he looked at him coldly and asked, "Oh, then tell me how the money came from? Is it really a transaction?

Viscount Hozia was a little dazzled by his successive questions, and he couldn't say the second sentence for a long time.

By the time he reacted, the Marquis of Trolope had already ordered someone to carry the box down: "Since you can't say it, you just assume that the money is stolen." ”

Viscount Hozia looked at Count Mackinto when he heard this, and wanted to say something, but was pushed back by the other party's fierce gaze.

The Marquis of Trolope pretended not to notice, looked at King Ferdinand and said, "Your Majesty, the evidence of Viscount Hozia's collusion with mercenaries is conclusive, and it can be concluded that he is the mastermind behind the attack on the Kingdom Mission. ”

Ferdinand nodded with a serious expression, he looked at Viscount Hozia and asked, "Do you have anything else to justify?"

Viscount Hozia faced the kingdom, his eyes full of supplication: "Your Majesty, I."

......”

He was about to say something, but his throat tightened and he couldn't make a sound at all.

Viscount Hozia looked terrified, not knowing why this was happening.

Then King Ferdinand said, "Since you have not spoken to defend yourself, then I will be convicted, do you have any other opinions?"

Who dares to have opinions?

The two major families made it clear that they abandoned the car to protect the handsome, and they didn't want to completely get into trouble with the king because of this trivial matter, and now it is a fight between the gods, and they mortals just watch the excitement honestly.

So the crime of Viscount Hozia was thus decided, Marquis of Trolope beckoned, and the two janissaries hurriedly stepped forward, ignoring Viscount Hozia's desperate resistance, and directly dragged him down.

It took a long time for everyone to come back to their senses and praise His Majesty the King for his "wisdom and martial arts".

Immediately afterward, everyone's eyes converged on Count Church again.

Didn't they say that both of them had something to do with the attack on the Mission, and why was the Earl of Church standing here so well?

King Ferdinand asked the doubts in everyone's hearts: "Marquis of Trolope, why did you call Count Church too, does this matter also have anything to do with him?"

When the Marquis of Trolope heard this, he bowed his head and said, "The bandits of Kale County are rampant, and Count Church, as the supreme commander of the local garrison, has an unshirkable responsibility. ”

"According to the investigation of the Ministry of Intelligence, after the attack on the Kingdom Mission, not only did he not do his best to investigate, but turned a blind eye to it, and there was serious dereliction of duty, and I hope that His Majesty will severely punish him. ”

When Earl Church heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned on the spot.

Malfeasance?

The other nobles were also slightly stunned, including Count Mackinto and Earl Layton.

King Ferdinand stared at Count Church and asked in a cold voice, "What the Marquis of Trolope said is the truth?"

Count Church did not know how to answer, he did not know what medicine was sold in the king's gourd.

Seeing this, Ferdinand sighed as if regretful: "Since you don't speak, then I will all acquiesce to you." ”

Count Church remained silent, but his mind raced as he pondered the king's intentions.

However, he didn't know what the king wanted to do.

Was it a courtship to his maternal grandfather, Sidney?

While he was thinking, Ferdinand announced: "The commander of the garrison of Kale County, Earl Church, has neglected his duties, and now he is removed from all positions, and the garrison is temporarily placed under the management of Earl Leander. ”

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Leander, and said in a stern tone: "After you take over the local garrison, you will immediately combine with the Southern Army to launch an investigation operation, and you must eliminate all the bandits and rogues in Kale County within half a year." ”

"If you find a noble lord who is in collusion with bandits, you can deal with it directly on your own, you don't have to report it to me, Count Louis will provide you with the necessary help. ”

Hearing this, Renard's heart suddenly jumped wildly.

What does that mean? Going to attack the Creightons?

Why did the other party give Uncle Leander the task of inventory? Is it because he is afraid that he will not be able to work at that time?

Why did he seriously dispose of Viscount Hozia, but let Count Church go?

Is it trying to divide the two families? Will the other party be fooled? Or is it trying to divide Earl Church and the Creighton family?

His mind was in a hurry, but he could not figure out the king's intentions.

In the end, he took a deep look at Ferdinand, and only felt that this man's scheming was too deep.

Hearing this, Leander stood up and replied respectfully, "Yes, Your Majesty!"

The attack on the Kingdom Mission ended in such a hurry, and many people were still at a loss, feeling that things were a little inexplicable and even a little absurd.

A court nobleman has a grudge because of the uneven distribution of materials, and spends money to buy mercenaries to attack the kingdom's missions and assassinate the kingdom's important ministers.

The most ridiculous thing is that this court nobleman is not short of money.

Many people know the whole story, but they know it by heart.

In order to cooperate with the Cronin family, the Creighton family made a petition for attacking the Kingdom Mission.

In order to save face, the king tried the attack on the mission, and randomly picked up two unlucky ghosts as scapegoats.

It seems simple, but it is full of suspicions.

In particular, the final sentence was quite surprising, as the "main offender" Count Church was fine, as an "accomplice" Viscount Hozia was cut off, hanged, and confiscated.

Renard took a deep breath, the king's chaotic punch not only blindsided his enemy, but also blindsided him as an ally.
