Chapter 452: Retreat
There was silence at the gate, and everyone looked at Leo with incredible eyes. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
This guy openly instructed his subordinates to kill people in front of Prime Minister Paul, and it was Prime Minister Paul's people who killed him!
You must know that except for Leo, the people here are all nobles and ministers in the Spani Empire, and because of the-for-tat confrontation in the past few decades, these people are very willing to see Leo make a fool of himself.
Therefore, at first, when Leo spilled blood from the corner of his mouth, there were even several nobles who laughed very contemptuously on the spot, but this laughter only lasted less than a few seconds, and it was instantly interrupted as the head of the guard standing behind Prime Minister Paul hit the ground.
All eyes were on Prime Minister Paul, waiting for the decision of the number one person in the current Spenny Empire's political arena.
As for Roger, who was supposed to be the second male lead, he had been completely ignored at the moment, and even Roger himself moved a few steps to the side intentionally or unintentionally, after all, Roger didn't think he could avoid the elusive assassin.
In the eyes of the onlookers, there must be a dragon fight at the meeting, and Leo, a dragon who crosses the river, may not be able to fight the local snake of Prime Minister Paul.
Prime Minister Paul's eyes were fixed on Leo, and Leo was not to be outdone, and glared back without hesitation.
Dozens of guards appeared from all sides, and surrounded Leo and Bella from different angles, including many masters recruited by the Ice Bear family.
Bella looked at Leo a little nervously, but found that Leo didn't have any fear on his face at all, and it looked like he was in the chest at all.
Infected by Leo, Bella also calmed down at once.
To be honest, Leo still wishes that Prime Minister Paul would do something to him, in this case, no matter what the final result is, this dinner will definitely not be able to go on.
Since he had planned to come here to cause trouble early in the morning, this time Leo not only asked Daisy to disguise herself as his coachman and wait outside the gate, but also transferred the two holy realm powerhouses No. 1 and No. 2 who should have been in the Divine Grace Courtyard.
As the number one trump card of the Divine Grace House, the No. 1 Adjudicator is best at elusive assassinations, and Leo learned from Daisy's mouth that there are as many as six Sacred Domain powerhouses who have died under the hands of this Adjudicator alone, which is simply a terrifying record.
All in all, with these three Sanctuary powerhouses by his side, Leo was confident that even if he lifted this mansion today, he would be able to get out of the way.
In that case, I'm afraid of him as a bird!
Strength has always been the strongest way to support self-confidence.
However, to Leo's disappointment, the anger in Prime Minister Paul's eyes did not increase, but gradually receded.
The moment the anger completely receded, a smile appeared on Prime Minister Paul's face.
"What Lord Leo said is that I was indeed careless and let this guy get into the family guards, if it weren't for Lord Leo to kill this person today, I'm afraid he will definitely bring disaster to my family in the future."
This not only surprised Leo, but the nobles in the audience were even more surprised, and their eyes and chin fell to the ground.
Now the most powerful person in the imperial political arena, Prime Minister Paul, who is arguably the largest political force, has backed down in front of this young boy from the church?
But Prime Minister Paul was not in the mood to think about what these guys around him were thinking at the moment, but turned his head to look at the corpse that had fallen to the ground, and shouted: "What are you doing in a daze, why don't you hurry up and throw the body of this bastard out to feed the dogs, do you still let it stay here and affect the mood of the distinguished guests?" ”
The servants who had been prepared for a long time rushed up and carried the corpse away in a matter of seconds, and the blood on the ground was wiped clean, if it weren't for the faint smell of blood in the air, you wouldn't have been able to imagine what had just happened here.
The guards who had just been surrounding them also disappeared into the darkness one by one, and the atmosphere finally eased from the previous touch.
After doing all this, Prime Minister Paul's eyes looked at Leo: "Lord Leo, I still have some things to deal with, so I will take my leave first, I hope you have a pleasant evening." ”
Leo smiled and nodded, "I'm sure the night will be enjoyable, Prime Minister." ”
Prime Minister Paul did not continue to speak, but turned and walked straight into the brightly lit and golden banquet hall behind him.
"It's a pity, I didn't expect this Prime Minister Paul to be really bearable, and he didn't even anger him like this." Leo sighed in his heart, and couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
But regret is regret, Leo doesn't have any guilt in his heart for killing. For Leo, that unknown guy on the ground is innocent!
You must know that the soul power of that guy just now, but he has tried to attack Leo's mind, and his mind is where the soul of the person is, so that person is definitely not a good calculation, and he may even want to control or kill Leo directly through some kind of secret technique.
Thinking of this, Leo also felt a lot of bad feelings towards Prime Minister Paul in his heart: "It seems that this old guy didn't have any good ideas in mind when he invited me to come in the first place." But that's okay, at least when he stirs up his dinner this time, this little master will have no guilt in his heart. Hmph, let's see! ”
At this moment, when things have developed to this point, Leo has no excuse to continue to make a fuss about this matter.
After all, the guards who shot at Leo were also killed, and Prime Minister Paul relented, and if Leo continued to hold on, it would be somewhat vexatious.
In fact, it's not impossible to be really unreasonable, anyway, Leo has the support of the three holy domain powerhouses behind him, and if he really wants to start a fire, even if he demolishes the mansion in front of him, it will be a matter of minutes, but Leo can't do this, because he still has scruples in his heart.
This scruple did not come from Duke Paul, but more from Bera beside him.
In order to prevent Bella from being married by the next emperor, Leo chose to support the eldest princess, which is actually no secret among the upper echelons of the empire.
After all, many imperial ministers and families are simply bidding left and right in the matter of electing the emperor, so the eldest princess's intention to compete for the throne has long been widely known, and in the past few days, the eldest princess and the Marquis of Habs have been running to the state guesthouse where Leo lives every day, and fools know what it means.
In other words, although Leo is still an "outsider" from the church to the high-ranking members of the empire at the moment, this outsider has indeed participated in the game of "his own family" to elect the emperor.
Leo knew very well in his heart that since he participated in the game, he had to follow the rules. And the fact that the mansion is turned upside down is obviously a serious violation of this rule.
If Leo doesn't follow this rule, then the eldest princess he supports will definitely lose the election of the emperor because of this, which will affect Bella's marriage engagement, which is obviously unacceptable to Leo.
Therefore, Leo must use "reasonable" means to persuade others to disrupt the banquet, so that Prime Minister Paul's idea of canvassing for the second prince through the dinner party has been completely defeated.
But Prime Minister Paul has backed down, and there is no excuse here, so what should Leo do?
At this moment, Leo's eyes suddenly found Roger, who was sneaking around and wanted to disappear.
Leo's eyes lit up all at once.
How can you forget this stupid guy who came to duel with him?
