Chapter 288 All Things Do According to the Law
After all, Angela used to be the commander of the legion, and she also had the title of "the first iron lady of the empire", even if she has stepped down from her position now, but after all, Yu Wei is still there, coupled with the strength of her archmage, everyone is afraid to act rashly for a while.
Of course, these people didn't know that Angela had already lost all her magic power and had become an ordinary person whose body was even weaker than ordinary people.
However, Ward quickly came back to his senses, and he snorted coldly and said, "Angela, you are no longer the commander of the legion, and you are not qualified to order us. This time, we are hunting down the fugitives on the orders of the king, but you are buying time for the fugitives to escape, do you also want to become a traitor to the empire?"
Angela didn't care, shook her head and said, "Which eye did you see that I was covering the fugitive's escape? The king didn't give me any order to hunt down any fugitives, at most I just didn't help you chase them, how did I become a traitor?"
"Also, I'm just talking to you about the laws of the Empire, and I don't mean anything else at all. If you want to enter Chongjiang Province, then take out your notification documents, as long as I agree, then you can enter my realm. ”
However, these killers who were responsible for chasing and killing Roddick did not prepare the documents in advance, and there was no way to write a document immediately in this wilderness.
In their opinion, this is all a deliberate effort by Angela.
"Angela, aren't you afraid that we'll go back and tell His Majesty that you're helping the fugitives escape?" Ward asked angrily.
Angela frowned: "How many times have you said it, I'm just checking your notification documents according to the laws of the Empire, if not, then please come to me again when you are ready!"
"And, you want to tell the king, I have no objection. It's just that according to your meaning, the king's will is above all else, above the laws of the empire, right?
With that, Angela stared at Ward coldly.
Where did Ward dare to jump to conclusions, if he really nodded, then he would definitely have only one way to die.
You must know that in recent years, the Garneman Empire has paid more and more attention to the binding role of imperial laws, especially those laws involving nobles and royal families, which are often mentioned by the Empire's legislative associations.
It's just that many people barely mention certain laws that have little effect, such as the one hundred and thirty-second article of the law that Amy just mentioned, and few people will pay attention to this law.
Now, the new king, Klat, has just sat on the throne of the king, and his ass has not yet sat down, and if there are rumors that the king does not obey or ignores the laws of the empire, then Klatt will be furious.
So, when Angela asked like this, how could Ward nod so easily.
Ward's face was cloudy, but he was still very unwilling, and after thinking for a while, he continued: "Angela, your fiefs were all given by His Majesty the King, and now that the fugitives have fled to your realm, shouldn't you be captured for the king?"
Angela replied, "First of all, I didn't receive a wanted warrant from the Empire, so I can't tell if Roddick is a fugitive or not. Secondly, even if he were a fugitive, I would not be obligated to pursue him until I received an order from the Empire. ”
"You're a fugitive!" Ward roared.
Angela's mood was very stable, and she said indifferently: "I didn't stop you from chasing the so-called fugitives, I just want your notification documents!"
Ward was already trembling with anger by this time.
Among the group of people who pursued Roddick, only Ward dared to stand up and confront the former commander of the empire, and everyone else was afraid of Angela's strength and did not dare to speak.
After all, they all thought that with the death of the archbishop and the flight of Aofeng, Angela should be the most powerful person in the Ganeman Empire today.
Seeing Roddick disappear from view, Ward was about to be blown up.
"Okay, you wait!" Ward said, pointing at Angela.
"Well, I'm just waiting here for your paperwork, and I'm not going anywhere!" With that, Angela turned around and walked straight towards the carriage, leaving a group of people completely stunned.
After a long time, Ward said angrily, "Why are you stupid! Why don't you hurry up and prepare the paperwork!"
At this point, almost everyone began to follow Ward's orders.
After all, apart from him, no one else dared to stand up and negotiate with Angela face to face.
After sitting back in the carriage, Angela couldn't help but take a deep breath, and the expression on her face suddenly relaxed a lot.
"Good thing they didn't see it!" Angela whispered to herself.
Amy frowned and asked, "What are we going to do next?
Angela calmed her emotions for a moment: "No, I have already arranged it in advance, as long as he arrives near our family's manor, someone will pick him up." ”
Amy was still a little worried: "In this case, isn't the charge of our Fan family secretly hiding fugitives confirmed?"
Angela didn't care at all: "No one will know about this! Before yesterday, it might have been discovered, but those flies have already been eliminated, so no one should know." ”
"The men outside the carriage knew that Roddick had entered our fiefdom, but they didn't see us help him hide. Therefore, even if the king really wants to ask for the crime at that time, at most he will not cooperate with the pursuit of the fugitive, and will not reach the fugitive in secret!"
Listening to Angela's narration, Amy was also touched in her heart.
She didn't expect that her family hadn't been in the Chongjiang Plain for a long time, and there had already been eyeliner mixed in.
Judging from this, the new king does not seem to be at ease with them, and may even send people to spy on them all the time.
After a long time, there was finally movement outside the carriage.
Angela stepped out of the carriage again and found that Ward had prepared the paperwork.
"The paperwork you want!" Ward handed Angela with an ugly face.
Angela took it and said, "It's ready so soon, it's very fast! Okay, you can enter Chongjiang Province." ”
Angela finished speaking, and ordered the cavalry to get out of the way.
Ward snorted coldly and said to the people behind him, "Let's go!"
In this way, this group of killers who were ordered to hunt down Roddick set foot on Angela's fiefdom and continued their pursuit to the north.
Looking at their distant backs, Angela muttered to herself: "I have left a hope for the Brant family, and I don't know if my decision is right or wrong!"
