Chapter 252: Pressure

Neo's eyes were bright and clear, and there was absolute confidence and decisiveness in them: "From what I know about Princess Lena, the princess of the Morrowind Kingdom will never do such a thing as killing people. Even if the other party is not a good person, so I will tell my old man about this as it is, and ask him to ask Prince Logan to take back his order and release Princess Lena!"

The owner of the mansion where the incident occurred was deeply convinced: "We also hope that Prince Logan can find the real murderer as soon as possible! In fact, the nobles who attended tonight's banquet felt that everyone was in danger, for fear that another 'Princess Lena' would appear again and attack other nobles!"

Enzo was the right-hand man of the Archbishop of Auerbach, and it was natural that he and Prince Logan would work together. It's just that now things have changed suddenly, and he must put the reputation of the Unitarian Cult first, so he also agreed: "Yes, the One God is above, in order to let the murderer be punished as soon as possible, I must immediately report this matter to Archbishop Auerbach!"

Neo and Enzo soon left. The cell door closed, and Princess Lena sat up from the sofa, countless reasonable and absurd thoughts racing through her mind, and the expression on her face was sometimes serious, sometimes happy, and sometimes a little ashamed. Finally, she whispered to herself, "Is that you, Ronin?"

The clock was fast approaching. Xu was because Princess Lena was detained, and the whole king was agitated and asked to be executed, and Prince Logan slept soundly last night. According to Logan's plan, at this time, he only needs to stand up and speak for Lena as her biological uncle, insist on exonerating him from the death penalty, depose her princess status, and demote her to a commoner, then he can kill two birds with one stone, and show his kindness and tolerance while removing Lena's hidden danger, and gain unprecedented prestige.

Thinking of this, Prince Logan, who was helping the princess take care of the garden, was particularly happy, and even hummed a cheerful tune that was spread in the royal capital of Morrowind.

At that moment, footsteps were heard, and a young knight in red armor hurried into the garden, his face both surprised and worried.

The man who came was Prince Logan's confidant knight, William Brewer. Xu was too preoccupied, and after he appeared, he did not bow down and salute as usual, but said directly to Prince Logan: "Your Royal Highness, a strange thing happened last night!"

Prince Logan disagreed: "Strange things happen every day, as long as you look at it with a normal heart, you don't feel anything!"

William sighed lightly: "But this matter has something to do with Princess Lena! Last night she appeared at Earl Karl's mansion and killed Earl Shore's second son with poisoned wine on the spot, and also killed three high-ranking professionals by the way! Count Carl insisted that the murderer was not Princess Lena herself, and was also suspicious of the royal decree to arrest Lena. I'm afraid that it won't be long before those nobles start asking us to release Princess Lena and capture the real murderer!"

"What!" said Prince Logan, who almost lost the watering can in his hand. He pondered for a moment and sneered: "Hmph, it's just a little trick of those guys under Lena! Doubt my edict? Those nobles are not stupid, how can they not know what I want to do? They are just worried about their own lives! You immediately take my token and leave for Archbishop Auerbach and ask him to come forward and debunk this trick!"

William didn't move, but shook his head and refused: "I'm afraid this won't work, Your Royal Highness! They found out that the same barrel of poisoned wine had been used several times, and that the Monotheistic High Priest had magically investigated it last night. He said that the murderer had the same immortal spell on his body as Princess Lena, and he ...... Can't confirm the authenticity!"

"Could it be that the bunch of waste guarding the door of the cell let Lena go?" Prince Logan was a little angry!

William continued to deny: "Soon after the incident, High Priest Enzo rushed to the royal capital prison! Both the magic enchantment and the forbidden bracelet were intact, and the four guards also said that there was no abnormality. ”

Prince Logan finally couldn't calm down now. He knew exactly what would happen if this thing went on: the damned nobles would always prioritize their own safety. Since they will turn a blind eye to the arrest of Lena in order not to provoke me, they will surely put pressure on me for the safety ......of their own lives, forcing me to find the real culprit as soon as possible! Hmph, foolish people are just foolish people after all, and wherever the wind blows, they will fall. It's a pity that the wind is not in my favor now, if even the church doesn't support me at this time......

"Let's go at once! I'll see Archbishop Auerbach myself!" Prince Logan decided.

It's a pity that Logan's determination didn't bring him good luck. Archbishop Auerbach did not even choose to talk privately, but received him in the Basilica of the One Temple, in front of many of the kingdom's magnates, including Winston III.

Archbishop Auerbach looked serious, and his tone was full of pity and sorrow: "One God is above, the Church cannot watch more innocent lives be taken away by that demon, Your Highness the Prince!

Prince Logan's heart sank when he heard this. He finally realized that the promise he had made had not impressed the Cult. They care more about the so-called "human heart".

Winston III followed suit: "Logan, Lena is innocent, she ...... She couldn't have done anything that cruel!"

Although the other nobles did not dare to say it explicitly, they all whispered in favor of the opinions of the two. Prince Logan's face grew gloomy, but then quickly retracted.

"I see!" said Prince Logan with a blank face, "I would consider releasing Lena, but not now! I am responsible to all the people of Morrowind! Until then, I cannot agree to your request!"

Archbishop Auerbach was silent for a moment, and then suddenly proposed: "It is better to do this." Starting today, High Priest Suanna of the Monotheistic Cult will accompany Princess Lena in her cell. If that murderous demon reappears, it should be able to clear Princess Lena's suspicions, right?"

Prince Logan knew that the archbishop was suggesting that he both took a step back, and hurriedly smiled gratefully: "Archpriest Suana?

Archbishop Auerbach waved his hand and smiled: "According to the doctrine of the Unitarian Religion." But if there is still a suffering person in this world, no matter where we are, our hearts are tormented in a cage! May the light of the One God shine on the world!"

Prince Logan bowed and saluted with the other nobles present, only to feel that the pressure on his body was extremely great.
