Chapter 138: Alarm

In fact, the ministers present were a little entangled in their hearts...... It's just a hereditary earl, unless a grand duke dies, or a minister in an important position dies, it will attract the attention of His Majesty the Emperor, what the hell is going on?

There are also ministers who know it, and other counts are just that, the Countess of Cordillera is the pawn of the Emperor in the Cordillera Plateau...... The choice of a piece is decided only by the player. As a young and old emperor, he didn't mind Hathaway's life and death, after all, he was just an earl, but if someone else intervened and decided Hathaway's life and death, it would be seen as a provocation...... The provocation of an old emperor was the reason for the anger of His Majesty the Emperor.

"Majesty!"

A minister came out in the crowd, and his presence caused a whisper from the crowd. Mercedes. Duke Lusau, Deputy Minister of the Imperial Ministry of Finance, this veteran nobleman who has always insisted on 'ten thousand words are better than one silence' in the court, how did he become a leader today?

"Your Majesty the Emperor!"

Mercedes. Duke Lusso raised his voice, he succeeded in attracting the attention of His Majesty the Emperor, and also succeeded in making the other ministers stop talking, "As the deputy minister of the Imperial Treasury, this matter has nothing to do with my work. However, as a nobleman, I think that the robbery and killing that took place in the Snooker Province is a despicable act, which is not only a violation of the laws of the empire, but also an offense to all nobles, and even more so an offense to the great emperor Xià! No true nobleman could allow this to happen. I hope that His Majesty will be able to make a decision as much as possible! ”

All the ministers looked at each other, although some were unimpressed. But Messen. Duke Lusso was not wrong...... In fact, Hathaway was not the only nobleman who died in assassination or robbery?

However, Hathaway was registered with His Majesty the Emperor. And this kind of behavior really can't openly abandon the investigation, otherwise it will be a serious violation of the rules of the game.

Fivinlie XVIII withdrew his gaze. His eyelids drooped again. He clasped his hands together, his face seemed calm, but his heart was full of anger...... He was old, but he wasn't confused, and that group of thieves must be some kind of aristocratic support, but he couldn't be sure that it was against Hathaway, or against him.

Hathaway's ability to escape robbery shows that this 'chess piece' is still very survivable. It's good, the stronger the piece. The more attractive the variation of the game. So he must not let this chess piece lose inexplicably. However, he could not bring it up directly, it had to be promoted by a certain minister. Duke Lusso's move was quite in line with his wishes, but it seemed that only one person was not enough.

"Majesty!" Another minister came out, this time to the Imperial Minister of Taxation. Marquis of Auf.

"Your Majesty the Emperor! This act is an affront to the dignity of the royal family and the sacred laws of the Empire, and the real culprit of this robbery must be uncovered! As a Minister of the Empire, neither I nor my colleagues can tolerate any provocation against the Empire and against the Emperor I serve! ”

The Eighteenth Emperor Fei Wenlie raised his head violently. His gaze startled the passionate Minister of Taxation!

"You're right!"

A cold light flashed in the old emperor's eyes, like a sleeping lion that had just woken up, poking out his claws: "This is a conspiracy, not just an ordinary act of plunder. It has already posed a threat to the foundations of the empire, and it must not be tolerated! ”

Sexter. Marshal Tucker stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty! We can't be sure at all! We can't judge the truth of the matter from the Snow Wolf Legion's newspaper! Although I and the adults have no intention of putting pressure on you, you should do your best! Otherwise I will not be able to account to the angry officer corps and the soldiers who defend your territory. I'm sure other adults will face my kind of distress as well. ”

"Marquis Abbe!"

The head of the court beside the emperor immediately responded to the call, and the emperor's closest court officials stood respectfully in front of His Majesty the emperor. "Immediately draft an order to order the Imperial Ministry of Justice to send personnel to the Snooker Province on the same day to investigate the robbery of the Count of Cordilera!"

"Yes. 陛xià! Marquis Abbe bowed slightly.

……

Just when the big people in Heidelberg were fighting because of Hathaway's robbery, Hathaway and the others ushered in a snowstorm.

After ten days of trekking, they have come to the junction of Snooker Province and Kasef Province. At this point, the escort of the Snow Wolf Legion was about to return to the barracks, and they originally wanted to negotiate with the garrison of the Casif Province, but Hathaway politely refused...... She was sure that if something went wrong with her safety, Grand Duke Cassef would be absolutely happy to see it. However, she also believed that even if Grand Duke Kasef had murderous intentions towards her, he would never do anything in Kasef Province, and the action of the Snow Wolf Legion undoubtedly sent a signal that those guys would not dare to do it lightly.

However, plans do not change as quickly as they enter the province of Kasef, and soon after entering the province of Kasef, they are met with a snowstorm, and although there is no loss, they are delayed in the snow for a long time, and the guards are exhausted.

Not far ahead is a city called Phillip, the team found a place outside the city to set up camp, and Berg was responsible for the placement and purchase of food, etc., in order to avoid getting into some trouble, she left half of the Praetorian Guard knights, together with the half-orc guards and the elves and half-elves, and the others entered the city of Phillips with her.

By the time they arrived at the city, it was already past noon, and those who had missed lunch were anxious to enter the city to fill their stomachs, but they encountered a little trouble at the gates of Guò...... Well, it can't be said to be a trouble, the guards, seeing the noble emblem on the carriage, began to disperse the crowd to make way for the carriage, which caused a small commotion, and it was a long time before Hathaway and her sisters entered Phil Pool.

"Hurry up and report to the castle guard." Seeing Hathaway's carriage leave, the guards sent a soldier to follow Hathaway, and then sent another soldier to report to the castle guard.

Hathaway and the others didn't care about this, although there was a snack in the carriage, but the snack couldn't be eaten as a meal, so the first thing they did when they entered the city was to find food.

"The perilla and hedge leaf stew here is a must, let's try it in the past." Hathaway saw a shop fifty meters away from the window, and hurriedly beckoned the driver to go that way.

Food, clothing, housing and transportation, this is not sloppy at all. Before you go somewhere, be sure to inquire about the specialties and customs there...... Before the carriage arrived, a mouth-watering smell of meat filled the air.

"Wow, what a delicious stew!"

Alia. Fugu smelled the aroma of meat, and his saliva was about to flow out, "Daddy and I have been here, and we also ate stew in this shop, there are many shops in this city, but only this stew is the most authentic." ”

"Although I haven't seen the appearance, I guess the taste won't be wrong."

Hathaway sniffed, proudly acting as a food critic, "You can smell the aroma of stew here, which means that the store has not cut corners, and there are at least eight spices in the fragrance in addition to the smell of perilla hinges...... No wonder it tastes so good, these seasonings come together to make a delicious stew even for novice chefs. ”

The carriage stopped at the door of the shop, and Ilona went to open the door before Hathaway stepped down...... Of course, she was still wearing a magic robe, because she found that wearing ordinary lady's clothes had to salute frequently, which was strange and troublesome. And wearing a magic robe not only saves trouble, but also has a bit of a deterrent effect...... She wasn't wearing an apprentice's robe, but a formal magician's robe.

Seeing a noble magician and more than twenty knights coming, most of the guys in the shop pù ran out to help take care of the horses and carriages, and then one of them looked older to lead the way for Hathaway and the others.

The shop is very large, there are two floors of storefronts, and now it has just passed noon, business is quite good, the store is almost full, Hathaway's luck is not bad, she got a box, make do with it, she can sit open, anyway, Hathaway doesn't care much about this, and it's not the first time she's sat down with the knights to eat.

The shopkeeper himself came running over with the recipe, and everyone quickly ordered what they wanted to eat, and then began to chat...... Don't look at your peers for so long, but there are not many times when you have the opportunity to sit together and have a good chat. They have had many disasters along the way, and if they hadn't coped with it, they don't know how many of them would have died along the way. Thanks to the blizzard, Hathaway finally made up her mind to stay for a few days...... The rest felt like a vacation after half a month of hard work, and even the knights liked this kind of light-hearted topic very much.

"For the past two days, everyone is free to move. But to be on the safe side, at least in pairs. Remember to get into as little trouble as possible, but never be bullied, and if anything, just come to me. Hathaway commanded.

"After eating, everyone can move freely, but again, at least in groups of two." Hathaway emphasized again that she was a little uneasy about acting alone.

Although Ilona has cultivated her fighting spirit, and her specific combat power is still uncertain, what Hathaway is most worried about is that this little maid seems to have a gap in fighting spirit, and she has not really passed the test of blood and fire.
