Chapter 263: The Theory of Tongues

Although Richard is a novice in Vanity Fair, he is no stranger to playing cards.

Stuart wants to clear the suspicion of the undead, and the testimony of Pompeii, the other party to the Winterfell incident, is crucial, so Pompeii is his upper home.

Pompeii wants to win peace, and whether San Jose's-stirring stick will be a hindrance is very important, so San Jose is Pompeii's master.

And San Jose wants to provoke a war, the basic premise is that Stuart must not reach a tacit understanding with Pompey, so Stuart is obviously San Jose's superior.

If the card is just like this, each one is both a home and a current house, and it can be played down.

But the problem is that once the mad king of Stuart chooses to take the initiative to provoke a war.

The chain of checks and balances will collapse completely, and San Jose will easily get the cards he wants, while Pompeii will be the biggest loser.

According to common sense, the probability of this happening is very small, because the cold climate will also bring a lot of harm to Stuart, and their national strength in the past two years is not as good as Pompeii.

But the lord gazed at Beruni, who was surrounded by the crowd and sat on a luxurious high-backed chair.

If the eyes are the windows of the soul, then under this shiny skin, there is undoubtedly a completely crazy soul.

Richard could feel itβ€”this man had a strong tendency to self-destructiveness, had no scruples at all, and would not be surprised by anything he did.

There was a small episode during this period.

Whether it was Stuart or San Jose's envoys, after entering, most of them took the initiative to greet Paul, the new bishop of Pompeii, with a very respectful attitude, which made the lord look sideways for a while.

Although he has long known that he was once a cardinal, he still has the title of "the first person in three hundred years". But after all, Paul has always behaved too amiably in front of him, and subconsciously it is always difficult to treat him as a famous giant.

But actually, think about it. The cardinal is just that, and sometimes in order to gather twelve people, it is inevitable to mix in the goods that are not of good quality. But how prominent is the title of "the first person in three hundred years of divine arts"!

"Everyone, listen to me. After the exchange of cumbersome diplomatic rhetoric, as the only His Majesty present, Beruni certainly had a slightly higher priority than the other plenipotentiary ambassadors.

"First of all, I would like to state that my country has no knowledge of the undead events in Winterfell. In my opinion, the biggest suspicion should have been attributed to Pompeii. Why? The biggest beneficiary is the first suspect, and everyone must know this simple truth. ”

He leaned back in his chair, his fingers tapping lightly on the armrest, his expression playful.

"Looking back at that time, Winterfell was originally impregnable with Seedorf's insistibility, and Pompeii's army was powerless to move forward. But since that night, the city has been breached, and the Pompeii army has been able to attack smoothly, and to this day, it still occupies the land of one of our provinces. ”

"And what about our country, the loss of troops, people, and land is difficult to count, and our country is the biggest victim of the undead incident in Winterfell. Berruni looked at Prince Pompeii Schmidt with a smirk, "Should your country give a reasonable explanation for this?"

The lord had to admit that this mad king, who was notorious among the people, did have a strange charm that was bewitching and even evil.

Even if you are a madman, you are a very demagogic madman.

"There is some truth to what His Majesty Beluni said. "San Jose likewise had a prince as ambassador plenipotentiary.

As a man in his own right, the Prince Abel is undoubtedly a bit young, said to be in his early thirties. And a delicate goose egg face makes him look younger than his actual age.

But whoever despises him for that reason is very wrong.

Prince Abel wore a golden bale around his neck, which was very eye-catching, like some kind of special medal.

Insiders know at a glance that this short stick is the famous Nawen dormancy enchantment, which comes with a constant temperature, constant humidity and constant oxygen space, and is used for the special high-level alchemy equipment for large mounts to sleep, which is the masterpiece of the alchemy masters of the ancient human empire.

A small stick, the technical content is unimaginably high.

San Jose and Stuart, as the orthodox descendants of the ancient human empire, also inherited the specific production method. And Pompey, as a descendant of a rebel, has no power to imitate it so far, so he can only watch it dryly.

The Navin dormant enchantment is also known by a more well-known alias, "Dragon Flute". Because the cost is too high, and only one dragon can be bound within the expiration date, the Nauven Dormancy Enchantment will only be assigned to some Dragon Knights.

In other words, the princely ambassador of San Jose actually has the identity of a dragon knight at the same time.

You know, except for a very few lucky ones like Higuain, or powerful ones like Magisters. Whether you are from a poor background or a rich or noble family, trying to win the favor of the dragon is undoubtedly a matter of both opportunity and risk.

For most of the well-born, well-to-do aristocracy, it wasn't worth the risk.

And Abel, as the prince, can leave behind all the glory he already has and climb to the top of the mountain alone to win the approval of a dragon. It is enough to show that he has superhuman courage.

"The biggest beneficiary is the first suspect, and that's right. "Prince Abel's wavy curls shone like gold.

San Jose was the next home of Stuart and the last home of Pompeii. Now the house asks for cards, of course, you have to give.

His tone was nonchalant, but the content was really to the point: "If you think about it, Pompeii really seems to be the biggest beneficiary? ”

"This thing is talking so yin and yang, it can't be impotence. The lord whispered to the Pompeii envoy beside him.

The latter looked a little too nervous, and sat motionless in his chair, not even daring to roll his eyes, which made Richard feel bored.

"Everything is just speculation, speculation without factual basis, it is better to listen to what other people have to say. John II wore a melon skin cap on his head, and his already thin and small appearance was even more harmless against the backdrop of Beruni's arrogance.

But this little old man was unusually calm, and he spoke calmly, and he had a very reassuring power.

"There is no point in making a fool of yourself on this issue. Prince Schmidt said coldly, "Winterfell is there, and I think that it will not be difficult to find some clues for such a large-scale undead riot, and I think this is a hundred times more reliable than speculation." ”

"Poor Winterfell has been detached from Mother Motherland and occupied by the enemy, and perhaps it may have done something a long time ago. Beluni snorted and laughed, as if he had heard something very funny.

"His Majesty Beruni is really good at debating. Prince Schmidt looked back at Richard, "But Baron Richard in our country already has the key evidence. ”

"Ahem. The lord cleared his throat and stood up, pulling out a large crystal from his pocket.
