With a creak, the wooden door slowly opened.

Alice suddenly clenched the armrest, and Huo Ran looked up, her eyes first surprised and puzzled, followed by unspeakable anger, staring at the servant who had followed the Sander family for decades.

"Mistress Alice. Lien fell to his knees with a puff and a hoarse voice: "I am guilty!"

"Karrick, Eric, come in and listen!" Alice's voice was full of anger, and the bruises were on her fair skin, and the identity of the betrayer was indeed unexpected.

When Karrick and Eric, who were full of doubt, closed the door, Alice's tone was full of self-deprecation: "Lien, the good steward of the Sander family, and my father's right-hand man, really surprised me." ”

Lien, who had long been discouraged, was silent.

"Confess your sins, traitor?"

Traitor?Karrick's expression was obviously a little surprised, he had worked with Ryan for many years, and knew very well that he had a smooth personality and his hands and feet were not very clean, but he was still dutiful to his lords, especially Jarot.

Then, Lien's confession refreshed the cognition of Karrick and everyone present.

Jarot's death was not an accident. It was a trap carefully planned by the Duke of Ceylon, who went deep alone and sat idly by with reinforcements, which led to a tragedy. And the tragedy is not over, and Leah, who goes on the expedition, will once again repeat her father's mistakes.

And the Duke of Ceylon's conspiracy does not end there, the arsonist will appear in the Black Rock Canyon at dusk today. Through his careful arrangement, he will infiltrate the castle and burn the harvest of the autumn harvest to the ground.

Until Fort Blackstone is in a desperate situation, the Duke of Ceylon will put on a hypocritical smile and achieve his goal.

As for the purpose of the Duke of Ceylon, Lion did not know. But under Qin Song's coercion, he could only choose to vaguely splash the dirty water on the head of the Holy Spirit Church.

After saying everything, Alice's gaze became colder and colder, and Lien was sweating profusely, as if on the verge of drowning, and collapsed on the ground.

"Duke of Ceylon, why! Why!" Alice's face was full of shock and disbelief when she heard that the mastermind behind all this was actually the great lord to whom her father was allegiance.

But then, Karrick got the notes from Lynn's hand to and from the back and forth.

Karrick's expression was solemn, the local minor lords were under the control of the big lords, and they had the obligation to pay taxes and wars, but such blatant persecution of the minor lords was incomprehensible.

However, it is better to believe that there is something than not.

Jarot was killed in battle, and Leah's life and death are unknown.

It's all true!

Alice believed Lynn's statement, for it was a revelation from the gods. There was only one anger left in her heart, the hatred of being deceived and betrayed.

Father, sister, and Blackstone Fort are Alice's rebels, and the Duke of Ceylon, the lord for whom his father is charged, is shamelessly plotting a conspiracy to destroy it all.

"Alice. Karika saw that Alice was in a fierce mood and had a vague tendency to go violent, and hurriedly spoke: "Don't worry, it's not clear about all this." But at least, the arson plot of the Duke of Ceylon, which we have seen through, will never succeed. ”

Alice suppressed her anger and clenched her teeth: "I have never seen such a despicable and shameless person. Karrick, arrange to go down immediately, and set up an ambush in the afternoon in the Blackstone Canyon...... Not ......"

Alice's fierce gaze fell on Lien: "Betrayer, what exactly is your infiltration plan?"

"Fresh water!" said Lien's eyes were full of ashes.

"I see!" Karrick's mind flashed, and his scalp tingled randomly, "Alice, don't forget, Lion's son, who is in charge of transporting fresh water for the castle. He could have hidden the arsonist in a bucket of water, and the castle guards would not search him, so he could enter the castle without even noticing. What a sinister ploy - Lien, you old thing, really damn it, took advantage of the lord's trust in you!"

Halfway up the hill, the castle was supplied with fresh water from the river that flowed through Blackstone and was transported by Lion's son Starn in a horse-drawn carriage to the castle's well. As a steward, the castle guards have no precautionary heart, and if the poison plan is not revealed, the probability of success is extremely high.

Thinking about it this way, Alice was also afraid for a while, and the grain from the autumn harvest was being dried and stored in the granary one after another. This is the winter food that Blackstone Fort depends on for survival!

No wonder, no wonder the gods told her that the devil was going to destroy Blackstone Fort once and for all.

Linda couldn't help but say, "It's so dangerous!"

Karrick frowned, and after a while, he said, "Alice, if the Duke of Ceylon is cautious enough, there will definitely be extra eyeliner to monitor the whole process. Now that we understand the whole plan. It would be better to plan and calculate, and if they want to come to the castle, let them enter the castle. And the castle is our territory. ”

"What a vicious plan. Alice looked at Lien in disgust: "The Sander family has raised you for decades, but they didn't expect that they raised a jackal that was inferior to a beast and ate inside and out." ”

Leon had no strength to argue anything, and there was nothing to argue with.

"Alice, I suggest that there is no need to add more guards on the castle's surface, so as not to startle the snakes. But let all the guards sit back and hide in the shadows. When the arsonist enters the castle, he must capture all of them, and no one is allowed to escape. ”

Alice nodded, "Uncle Carrick, but I feel that this matter needs to be kept in absolute secrecy. Aside from you and Eric, I trust enough, but there may not be no other traitors in the castle guards. We need to make a show, and the task of catching the arsonist will be left to me personally. ”

Karrick glanced at Linda, and the Elena in military uniform, and nodded in his heart, "No problem." So—what about Leigh?"

Alice stared at the traitor with hatred, he was already very old, and he was not far from death: "Banish." When the arsonist is caught, he and his son will be stripped of all their belongings and banished from the Blackstone Collar, never to return. ”

Karrick sighed in his heart, Alice was still too kind after all, and according to his intentions, the traitor would be openly executed as an example. But at the same time, he felt fortunate that Alice was able to have a benevolent heart, which was not necessarily a good thing for Blackstone to say. Top starters

At least, he didn't like a cold-blooded and brutal Alice.

As for Lion and his sons, they will be banished and will never return. Weimar, then, might be happy to earn a little more hard money, just like getting rid of Father Gensley.

This kind of dirty work, it's better for me to take care of it!
