"You are blatant contempt for the Church! I'll say it one last time, please get out of here at once, or you'll be sent to the island with them, and not even the Baron will be able to save you!" Sure enough, as Hong Tao expected, when the leading knight saw the gold coins, his face immediately changed color, and his hand was on the handle of the sword, and he issued an ultimatum to the blonde girl with a fierce voice.

"Mr. Knight, let me say that I am a friend of your Emperor and a doctor. If they are not sick, then let them go, and the bishop and the lord of the castle will tell them to their faces. God punishes sinners, but he has never said that the families of sinners are also sinners, and even sinners should be given the opportunity to repent, you say? ”

At this time, Hong Tao suddenly separated from the crowd and walked out, with his hands behind his back as if he was inspecting a leader, and unashamedly helped the blonde girl to intercede with the knight in charge of escorting. The way he spoke was much more exquisite, first telling the other party his background, then relieving the knights of their responsibilities, and finally talking about what is humane or inhumane.

When those knights first saw Hong Tao, they were stunned by his face, and after listening to the words that followed, a look of panic immediately flashed in their eyes, and after whispering a few words to each other, they were even more at a loss. Obviously, they should have guessed Hong Tao's identity, the Re\Na\ Yaren are not so forgetful, they just attacked the city a few years ago by two big ships with rat head flags, and the scar is not good, let alone forget the pain.

"Let it go...... Let me go, the Baron is here! Just when the knights were in a dilemma and at a loss, another group of people came from outside the crowd. At the head were four tall horses, on which sat four heavily armed knights. Compared to these Church Knights. These four are much more windy, and their bodies are full of precious metals and precious stones, and even the stirrups are golden.

Behind them was a tall, black horse, and a young woman with black hair, black eyes, and yellow skin sat right away. Instead of a skirt, she wore a white silk blouse trimmed with petal-like piping on the collar and cuffs. The lower body is a pair of cotton leggings, and a pair of brown-gray high leather boots are put on the feet. Due to the lack of elastic fabric, the leggings are flanked with air holes, strung with thin ropes, and then tightened like a shoelace, and the skin of a thin leg can be seen in the gap in the middle, which is very attractive. Paired with a small vest embroidered with dark patterns, this outfit is both like a knight's suit and a hunting suit, and it also has a feminine taste.

It's no one else. It is Jiang Zhuyi. She is really nourishing here, there are knights guarding in and out, listening to the words of the knight who was in charge of escorting the knight just now, she is not small in the city of Rena, it seems that she is powerful except for the bishop and the city lord.

"Don't come and kowtow to the emperor yet!" Hong Tao is not without vanity, but he generally does not show it, or the way he reveals it is very hidden. Now he wasn't going to hide and tilted his head up. The face is looking at the sky at 45 degrees, and the eyes are slanted.

"Concubine to His Majesty the Emperor...... Ah. What's wrong with your face? Who got it! Jiang Zhuyi was also very cooperative, jumped off the horse with a smile and ran to Hong Tao's side, one leg had just bent halfway, and suddenly stood up straight again, pointing at the scar on Hong Tao's left face, and asked through gritted teeth.

"The lion caught ...... I was alone against three lions. That's a face that doesn't change color and doesn't beat heartbeat! A few rounds down, and guess what? I killed all the lions, and one of them strangled me with one hand. That is, the shoes don't follow the feet, otherwise they don't want to touch half a hair of me...... Don't talk about that, you're familiar with them. Let's get this out of the way first. These two children are quite pitiful, and if they are really not sick, you can ask them if they can raise their noble hands and let them go. ”

Anyway, Jiang Zhuyi couldn't ask about the scene at that time, so Hong Tao could open up and blow it, saying that he was more Wu Song than Wu Song. One cougar almost killed him, and now he is a single man who fights three male lions. And this cow can't be blown in Chinese, it must be in Latin, otherwise no one present will understand it except Jiang Zhuyi and her clerk.

"Have you gone to the Emperor's Garden? And killed all his lions! You wait, I'll ask, this matter is not easy to do......" Jiang Zhuyi really believed it, in her mind, this man is a god, and there is nothing that cannot be done. And as far as she knew about Europe, there were no African lions to kill anywhere but Friedrich II's garden. But now is not the time to discuss this issue, there are more and more people surrounding this street, the road has been blocked, and it is important to deal with the matter at hand first.

Jiang Zhuyi walked up to the knights who were in charge of escorting the prisoners, whispered a few words with them in another Latin-like language, and then walked back with a helpless face. Obviously, she couldn't convince those knights, not that the knights deliberately embarrassed her, but that this matter was too big, even if the bishop and the city lord were present, they didn't dare to let them go easily.

Lepers are second only to demons in fame here, and no one dares to release lepers in the Italian peninsula, where Christianity flourishes. If this matter is discussed in private, there should be hope, but now that it has been made public, it is very unlikely that it will be retracted.

"If you send them to the island, even if they are released again, I am afraid that they will also get sick. They need to be isolated and observed in batches according to their condition now, and I can't be sure that they must be fine......" Hong Tao also understands this truth, he is going to retreat, and he can't become the public enemy of the residents of the entire Re Na Ya City for this matter, especially Jiang Zhuyi's shop and business. This is a nail I planted in Europe, and I can't give up just because my two children are pitiful.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please, save my brothers and sisters, they are really not sick...... I don't need to be paid in the future, I can do all the work! Lord Baron, save them......" The blonde girl who was crying on the ground was very smart, and she saw that Hong Tao was her last hope, and hugged Hong Tao's legs, pleading with tears in her eyes.

"Aya is my best buddy, and she helps me manage the store when I'm not around...... If you don't think about it again, her father is sick, but her younger siblings should not be sick, and they came to the store a few days ago to find their sister, who are two very obedient and good children. Jiang Zhuyi first relented, and then pushed the problem to her god.

"If I bring your younger brothers and sisters to live in my country, you may not see them for a long time, are you willing?" Others begged Hong Tao, and he had an excuse to prevaricate, but as soon as Jiang Zhuyi's big eyes came out of the water, Hong Tao's heart softened. He has a way to save people, but it's just troublesome, but for Jiang Zhuyi's sake, it's worth the trouble.

“…… I do! I do! As long as they can grow up, they can go anywhere! As soon as the girl named Aya who knelt at Hong Tao's feet heard that her younger brothers and sisters had been saved, she didn't think much about it, as long as people can live, they are better than dead, not to mention that Hong Tao's hometown is an oriental country full of gold, and Hong Tao is the emperor, so she will definitely not be able to treat her younger brothers and sisters, she quickly figured out this truth.

"Well, anyway, I'm going to be a good person, so I'll be bigger. All of these people who are not yet sick go to the docks and board my boat, and I want them all. Tell your bishop and the lord of the city that I'm going to take them back to my country, it's all right, right? If I don't, I don't mind blowing this church down again! Accompanied by a smiling face and begged for favors for a long time, people still didn't give face, Hong Tao was also annoyed, put away his smile, and loudly announced the final decision. If you agree, you have to agree, if you don't agree, you have to agree, that's it!

"Baron, we ...... Would you like to discuss it with the Bishop first...... "This time it's the turn of the knights in charge of escorting the escort to worry." Who Hong Tao is, there is no need to guess now, he himself admits it. But just let the prisoners be taken away by Hong Tao, and they can't explain when they go back, there is no precedent for this kind of thing, who has ever heard of someone taking in lepers.

"I'll go with you to see the bishop, His Majesty the Emperor has a very bad temper, you better not provoke him, his warship is parked in the harbor. Hahahaha...... I just like the way you look when you bully people, is Your Majesty here waiting for me to come back, or will you go to the boat first? Hong Tao began to go crazy again, Jiang Zhuyi not only did not dissuade her, but also went crazy with her, she laughed happier than anyone else.

"Alas, I originally wanted to stay in your shop for a few days, but this time I didn't come with the Golden River, and the cabin was not big enough. Now I'm going to take them all to your store? Let's go on a boat. I have important things to tell you, go and get back quickly. Let's go, take them with us, be careful not to touch their bodies. Hong Tao sighed, most of the day was in vain, he didn't even go into Jiang Zhuyi's bedroom, and he had to go back to the boat, it seems that he didn't have the life to go ashore to enjoy happiness, accept his fate!

Going out of the city with a group of lepers was smoother than carrying a hundred machine guns, and their men were the weapons that opened the way, and no one dared to stop them. When he arrived at the pier, Hong Tao asked everyone to take off their clothes, first to see if they were sick, and then asked them one by one if they had typical leprosy reactions, such as long-term general weakness and soreness in muscles and joints. Then the thirty-six people were divided into four groups, each group of nine people, one of which was confirmed by Hong Tao to have committed a disease, but there was no outward manifestation.
