Chapter 572: Judgment in the Square

Many aristocrats loved the arts, and they often paid for the good painters, musicians, and other artists.

The Grand Duke of Andorra was no exception, and in addition to funding painters to paint and then sign autographs himself, he also financed several musicians.

The Grand Duke had a band and soprano singers in the house, and they often staged new works by musicians in the theater, and many businessmen and officials would certainly buy tickets to attend.

In the past, Charles's family also sponsored many painters, because her mother was an excellent painter, and whenever she met a painter who came to visit, she would give a lot of funding to people with potential and strength.

Of course, there were also those who were indiscriminate, and those were kicked out.

However, every time Charles was sensible and met someone who was kicked out, he would quietly ask the housekeeper to give them a little money.

Everyone thinks that Charles is kind-hearted, but in fact he is afraid that one day a down-and-out painter will start to grow a mustache.

Although the aristocracy liked art for different reasons, some did it to make money, some did it to decorate the faΓ§ade, and some people really liked it, but it was their support that led to the development of arts such as music and painting.

For the Grand Duke of Andorra, music was his favorite, and it was only incidental to the admission fee.

On the second day of the auction, the visit of Pope Luciano of the Temple of Music made the Grand Duke of Andorra so happy that he turned down all official duties.

As a student, the Archduke of Andorra consulted Luciano on musical issues, and Luciano began to encourage and teach the Archduke of Andorra to compose his favorite serenades himself.

For the next few days, the Grand Duke of Andorra went to Luciano on time every day, like a student, regardless of what was happening outside the castle.

On this day, the Grand Duke was playing his half-finished piece in the piano room, and Luciano looked at him with encouraging eyes.

At that moment, a tsunami-like singing sound came from the low to the high outside the window.

Hey hooligans are a flock of black crows,

Wants to trample us under our feet.

From the coast of the East Sea to the shore of the West,

Hey, the most powerful worker in the world.

......

The workers marched forward,

Answering the call to fight.

From the scorching South China Sea to the icy North Ocean,

Hey, the most powerful worker in the world.

......

Let the fire of the workers burn all over the world,

Destroy all injustice.

From the earth to the sun,

Hey, the most powerful worker in the world.

Workers of unity, puff up their chests,

Hold your partner's hand tightly.

We should all fight more and more tenaciously,

and the enemy to the death.

Die on the battlefield.

......

For a while, the song "The Most Powerful Worker", which someone had changed a few days ago, floated through the streets of Andorra la Vella, and no matter where you are, this passionate song is surrounding you, as if the city is singing.

The fingers of the Grand Duke of Andorra hung on the keys stiffened and trembled slightly, and could no longer be pressed.

At this time, his attendant slammed open the door of the piano room, crawled to the side of the Grand Duke, and said breathlessly, "Great ...... Grand Duke, is Brando...... He ......"

The Grand Duke pulled up his attendant and shouted, "What is Brando going to do? Do you want to rebel?!"

"No...... No. The attendant said, "He's going to file a lawsuit......

The Grand Duke breathed a sigh of relief, but it was okay if he litigated, but he was afraid that there would be thieves in the city.

The administration of justice in the Principality of Andorra is in the hands of the Grand Duke, who holds the post of Chancellor.

Whenever the principality tried a major case, it would build a high platform in the middle of the square for the court, so the Grand Duke ordered his men to hurry up and set up the platform.

After arranging the court session, the Grand Duke said apologetically to Luciano: "I'm very sorry, Mr. Luciano, I have to deal with some mundane matters, so I can only pause for discussing the glory of the god of music with you for the first time." ”

Luciano said, "It's okay, I don't know if I can sit in on it?"

"Naturally. The Grand Duke replied.

The high platform was quickly erected, and by this time someone had already told the Grand Duke what had happened in the past few days.

The Grand Duke sighed in his heart, this Brando is still too soft-hearted, if it is other gangs, after catching the opponent, he will sink directly into the lake, and he will fight a fart lawsuit.

The Grand Duke, dressed in a black robe, and Luciano, who was also dressed in formal clothes, walked out of the castle side by side, startled by the crowd standing in the square.

Almost all the workers in the workshops and on the docks arrived, and many of them were merchants, and they all gathered around the high platform.

After the two were seated, Luciano cast a magic spell on the stage, so that the ordinary voices on the stage could be heard by the entire square.

At this time, Brando, dressed in a white robe, came up to the stage with a large thick parchment and said to the Grand Duke of Andorra: "Your Excellency, I am acting as a proxy to accuse you of the crimes of these people. ”

An attendant handed over the large book of parchment to the Grand Duke's hand, and the Grand Duke frowned slightly and asked, "There are so many indictments?"

At first, he thought that Brando was just suing the leaders.

Brando said respectfully: "Your Excellency, this is only the table of contents of the indictment. ”

Then the Grand Duke of Andorra watched in amazement as a dozen people carried boxes of parchment to the stage.

His face twitched, and he could only say, "Let's start." ”

The first to be escorted to the stage was the president of the Flying Fish Club, and the Grand Duke looked at the directory and said: "Someone accused you of committing a total of 6 rapes and homicides, 15 rapes, 8 homicides, and 22 instigated homicides......"

It took the Grand Duke a long time to finish reading the summary of the crimes in the catalog, and then said, "Can you plead guilty to these accusations, but do you have to defend them?"

The unstoppable rogue leader bowed his head and said, "I have confessed to all my sins. ”

The indictments were written or dictated by the victim and his family in a state of oath to the gods, and he could not argue with them, because as long as he swore to the gods, he could not tell a lie.

There was silence in the audience, and everyone was waiting for the verdict of the Grand Duke of Andorra.

The Grand Duke of Andorra stood up and looked around the crowd, his fingers still shaking.

The countless stares put a lot of pressure on him, and he remembered the song just now, and he could feel the power contained in it.

He was scared, it was a force that had existed only in the parchment of the family before, but now it was really in front of him.

He still remembers the parchment description, "This is a really powerful force, and all that opposes him is a tiger tied to straw." ”

Finally, he took a deep breath and said, "I declare that the prisoner and his co-perpetrators are guilty and shall be hanged." ”

The crowd burst into cheers, and the families of those killed burst into tears, having thought they would never see revenge in their lifetimes.

The prisoner was about to shout something, but before he could say anything, he was skillfully knocked unconscious by the man who was holding him next to him, so that something strange would not come out of his mouth.

At this time, the other prisoners of the Flying Fish Club basically do not need to be tried, and they are also hanged as co-defendants.

Otherwise, it is estimated that it will take several days to try them one by one.

Next, the Grand Duke of Andorra will first interrogate the gang presidents, and one will confess a large piece, and the remaining two or three kittens will be judged quickly.

In the end, only two of the gang members in Andorra City were relegated to slavery before they had time to commit crimes, and the others were brought to the city walls before the sun went down.

A prisoner was placed at each battlement of the wall, and a rope was tied around their necks at one end and the other end to the wall, and then the soldiers of the city defense kicked them off the battlements.

"Hey hooligans are a flock of black crows,

Wants to trample us under our feet. ”

The song "The Workers Are the Strongest" resounded in Andorra again, louder and more heartfelt than the previous one.

In the mountains to the north of the city, you can still faintly hear singing from the south.

On the mountain road, a two-wheeled carriage loaded with a lot of miscellaneous goods was walking slowly, and a lamp hung on a pole on the car, as if it was ready to travel overnight.

There was a girl sitting on the car who thought she had a dull hair on her head, and she asked the handsome young man who was driving, "Why did you travel overnight?"

Charles said depressedly: "You don't want me to spend the night with Diana, what's the point of staying." ”

Artoria said "hehe" twice and said, "I'll be relieved if I add a lock to you." ”

Charles was speechless, and he asked again, "Aren't you going back to the Knowledge City to hold a training class?"

Artoria said, "My instincts tell me to follow you. ”

Charles said "hehe" twice and stopped talking.

Next, Diana stayed on Andorra to train Ellie and Healy, while overseeing the renovation of Charles's restaurant, and working as a consultant for Brando, which she was doing next.

Ah Wei has been having a lot of fun with the children at the orphanage lately, and Charles is relieved to keep her there.

Charles retreated after throwing the restaurant renovation plan to his uncle, this time he helped to defeat an important intelligence station of the demons, and created an opportunity to provide a pilot for the output of the Rurik Kingdom, so the Great Demon King immediately agreed to help build a modern Chinese restaurant.

It was getting dark in the mountains very quickly, and Charles lit the lamp, and the bright light immediately attracted a lot of bugs, and illuminated the small silver flower with a jewel core pinned to Artoria's bun.

At this moment there was the sound of horses' hoofs ahead, and a group of horsemen on horseback galloped along the mountain road, as if to reach the side of Andorra la Vella.

Charles continued to pull over the carriage to the side of the road, and then glared at the people who were staggering over.
