Before Emmanuel could react, he was picked up by Adjudicator No. 1 and walked out of the room. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Wait!" Emmanuel suddenly turned his head to look at Leo, who was still wearing a thick bandage on his right shoulder, "So in fact, you led this Sanctuary assassin into battle to attract the attention of General Bryan and my uncle, so that your female assassin could lure me away, right?" ”

Leo glanced at Emmanuel in surprise: "I can't see that your head is still a little useful." yes, if it weren't, do you really think I'd be stupid enough to put myself at risk because of that idiot fight with Brian? Actually, you should be glad that if you hadn't been stupid enough to trust Adjudicator No. 1 and lead your troops away, then she would have taken your life at that time. ”

Emmanuel sighed again, his face full of gloom: "If this is the case, then of course you are ready to ambush at Simon's place." ”

Leo laughed and patted Emmanuel on the shoulder with his left hand: "Of course, otherwise you will be very disappointed when you go to Simon and you will not see your mother or the ambush I have carefully prepared for you?" ”

Emmanuel lowered his head and stopped talking.

Adjudicator No. 1 nodded at Leo and disappeared into the night with Emmanuel.

"My lord, it's time for us to go, too." Adjudicator No. 2 came to Leo's side.

"Well, let's go." Leo stood at the door of the hut and glanced at the black and red blood-colored sky outside the courtyard, "If I'm not mistaken, Brian should be back with his knights as well." ”

As soon as Leo finished speaking, the sound of horses' hooves was faintly heard at the other end of the long street.

The second adjudicator hesitated for a moment, but still asked the doubts in his heart: "My lord, in fact, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess didn't let us stay with Emmanuel, right?" ”

Leo nodded very dryly, "Yes." ”

Adjudicator No. 2 was even more puzzled: "In that case, why don't we just kill him?" In the eyes of our subordinates, as long as we have Emmanuel's head, we will be able to disintegrate the more than 20,000 troops of the Scarlet Knights. ”

Although he had only been following Leo for a few days, the second adjudicator had seen many of Leo's methods in the past few days, and knew that this boss had always acted extraordinarily, and he was full of thought that Leo would definitely give an opinion that was unexpected but completely reasonable.

But he was wrong.

Leo nodded again, agreeing with the Second Adjudicator's words: "What you said is not wrong at all, since I can use Julian's head to persuade the Silver Wing Knights to surrender, then it is not impossible to use Emmanuel's head to defeat the Scarlet Knights, but-"

Leo looked up at the blood-colored sky above him again, and for the first time showed a look of boredom on his face, which was a little pale from the blood loss from the wound: "There are too many people who have died tonight because of the ambition of a few people. ”

For his enemies, Leo has always been ruthless, so as to kill the opponent directly with one blow.

But that doesn't mean that Leo is a butcher who kills whom, in fact, for Leo, he has always wanted and preferred to solve all this in a more gentle way.

For example, in the past few days, Leo has been concentrating on preparing for the battle at the election meeting, and rarely thinks about settling this battle for the throne by force.

In Leo's opinion, if you really want to kill, then kill a few key people.

Don't forget, although nominally a papal servant, Leo is not like the devout people from the Church, who have no concept of a state in his mind except for the God of Light.

For Leo, although he didn't like Charles XVI, the eldest prince Emmanuel, and the second prince Julian, who had nothing but himself and the throne in their hearts, and he didn't like the Duke of Leo and Prime Minister Paul, who were desperate for power, but in Leo's heart, he always felt that he was a Spaniard.

Since you live in this country, live in this land, and grew up under the influence of this great culture, how can you abandon your motherland and people and pursue some bullshit gods and beliefs?

As a Spani, Leo certainly doesn't want the entire Spany Empire to be divided by tonight's battle for the throne, nor does he want the people of Ridmar City to be innocently implicated in this battle for the throne.

In the frenzy of assassinations earlier tonight, Leo was not at all relentless in sending assassins to kill, because Leo knew very well that the contradictions and strife surrounding the throne were irreconcilable, and that death was absolutely inevitable.

In such a situation, if killing only a few key people can save more people from the conflict, and also allow Leo to benefit himself, then why wouldn't Leo do it?

Killing enemies, taking benefits, and reducing the number of innocent people involved as much as possible, is a fool not to do so.

However, due to the sudden attack of the Duke of Lean, the Scarlet Knights and the Silverwing Knights entered the city one after another, Leo's idea and effort to control the conflict to a very small extent suddenly failed.

There is no doubt that the entire city of Ridmar will suffer a terrible loss and damage as a result of this night's battle, and it will take years for it to recover.

And it may be just the beginning, not only will thousands of people die in tonight's battle, but when the eventual victor ascends to the throne, the city of Ridmar will be purged with another more brutal purge.

At that time, the ministers and nobles who were on the wrong side tonight will be guillotined along with their families, subordinates, and servants, and the landing of thousands of heads will announce the establishment of a new round of order in the political arena of the Spanny Empire and the birth of a new player.

"This is just the beginning, Two." Leo let out a long sigh, and his young face showed a bit of compassion in the night.

The sound of horses' hooves approached, and the sound of knights began to ring through the streets.

"Found a horse corpse, this is the mount of His Royal Highness the Great Prince!"

"Look, the hut up in front is badly damaged, there may have been a fight there!"

"Let's go inside!"

The door of the small courtyard was violently slammed open, and hundreds of blood-colored knights rode in with cold and shining blades, vigilantly watching everything in the small courtyard, trying to find out the figure of their Grand Prince Emmanuel.

But in front of them, apart from an empty courtyard and a hut with a completely smashed roof in the courtyard, there was not a single figure, not even a ghost.

Leo and the Second Adjudicator had vanished into the darkness long before the knights arrived.

In the most conspicuous position on the wall of the small courtyard, there is also a sentence written in blood.

"I came gently, just as I walked gently, I waved my sleeve and took away the fool Emmanuel."

General Brian, who had just come to his senses, opened his eyes and saw this sentence on the door.

"God will kill me!" General Brian roared unwillingly and angrily, blood spurted out of his mouth, and the whole person fell down and fell off his horse, and there was no more sound.
