Chapter 3: Suspicion
The fortified fortress of Fort Marion, which has always been used as the Lord's Mansion of the Province of West, was reported by Zhang Hao and the Holy Maiden of Isa to meet the former lord of the Imperial Province of West, Emil Corden.
"Haha, welcome to the capital of the Holy Maiden of Carcassonne and my dear Prince, how about it, it's not bad here," said the emir, with a fat face, and laughed, his bloated red plaid robe could not hide the shaking of his body, and as he spoke, his right hand full of rings kept tapping the ground with a pure gold scepter, attracting everyone's attention.
The emir's greeting obviously did not put Zhang Hao, the prince of the empire, in his eyes, and did not give his subordinates a salute, and when greeting, Zhang Hao was deliberately ranked after the Kakasson messenger, since he looked down on it, why did he send a letter of help, Zhang Hao had a lot of doubts in his heart, but there was no dissatisfaction on the surface, after all, the empire that Zhang Hao represents now only has two provinces, and Isa represents the entire Duchy of Bretonnia, and Isha herself is sent by the fairy of the lake that Bretonnia believes, which is more noble than the messenger of King Lionheart.
Isha returned the salute and replied softly, "Good day, Your Excellency Emir, the city of freedom really lives up to its name. ”
"I'd like to know how much money you can give the Imperial Army to hire us, Emir, than the city?" The emir didn't wait to see Zhang Hao, and Zhang Hao naturally didn't pretend to be forced and went straight to the point.
The emir first glanced at Zhang Hao and the others with disdain, and then said to Isha with a smile, "Your Excellency, the charm of the Free City is not something that can be experienced in a few days, but since the envoy from Rick Province has arrived, let's talk about business as soon as possible, and I will call the waiter to invite you tomorrow morning, and before that, I will ask all the distinguished guests to have a good rest." ”
Bini has become silent since the death of old John, wearing a strong suit and following Zhang Hao, doing his best to be a good housekeeper, doing what he should do, saying what he should say, and never doing much.
"I'm okay," Isha replied politely, "but, Your Highness? With that, Isha turned her head to look at Zhang Hao on the side, which was to ease the embarrassing atmosphere.
"Heh, as long as my subordinates eat and drink well, it doesn't hurt to wait a few days" Zhang Hao thanked Isa for breaking the siege, and looked at Emir like a dead man, if it weren't for the systematic task, Zhang Hao would have turned around and gone back, and when the steam tank was consumed, he would have come to level Marion Castle.
"Since everyone has agreed, then we will see you tomorrow, beautiful lady, please allow me to go first" After speaking, the emir saluted Isha and left without waiting for an answer, shaking his fat body and leaving first, until he walked out of the hall, without looking at Zhang Hao.
And after Isha and Zhang Hao said goodbye politely, they also followed the waiter who led the way and left.
"Your Highness, are we?"
"Bini, don't worry, there are too many problems here, you go out to pick up Traucer and them first, and we'll talk about it when everyone comes back."
"Yes, Your Highness"
"How many times have you said it, call me young master"
"Yes, young master"
"Well, go and get back, this Marion Castle is not as peaceful as it seems."
Bini nodded and turned to go out, although he didn't know the other places, it was still difficult for Bini to go back the way he came and find someone.
"Ike, find where our knights are, go back and rest"
"My lord, my name is Echard, and if you call it wrong, I will definitely ask Lord Light to give you a warm hug."
"Are you hungry?"
"Naturally hungry, Your Highness"
"Then Ike, if you don't look for it again, I don't have the ability to get you food in this fortress at night."
"Your Highness, you wait for the light god to drill your bed at night."
"Get out, if you dare to come, I'll chop him, don't talk nonsense, find it quickly"
————————
At night, the lights are still bright, and there are more people on the streets than during the day, and people and people alike are looking for happiness and what they want.
After a full meal, Zhang Hao chatted with everyone in the room.
"Your Highness, there is nothing wrong with that station"
"No problem, why don't you let me live?"
"That's a women's station, Your Highness, you can't stay even if you go in."
"Oops, sexist! In the future, if you have the opportunity, you will definitely take someone to check it out. ”
"Oh, by the way, the innkeeper gave me a badge, which belonged to Bretonnia, saying that it was left by the previous waiter group after staying here, and seeing that we should also be messengers, let me help send it to the holy woman." Teucer took out the badge from his bosom and handed it to Zhang Hao.
"Yo, Bretonnia's coat of arms resembles our Imperial flag."
Echard glanced at the badge and said to Zhang Hao with some disdain, "It's terrible to be uneducated, the imperial flag is a griffin, and Bretonnia is a lion, and the gap between the two is big."
"Hey, you say, how fierce these saints must be to make such a fierce animal as a banner Kakasson."
"Your Highness, I beg your pardon for being rude, I think you should go back to school, the only people in the Duchy of Bretonnia can use the lion badge and banner are the legendary heroes, the army and messengers of the Lionheart King Lawne Leo Cornwall, and they saints will not blaspheme the goddess of the lake to use the insignia of other forces, even if they are basically a country."
"Bretonnia sent two envoys?" Teucer also scratched his head when he heard Echard's popular science, these things Zhang Hao didn't know as a prince, let alone Teucer, a peasant, was born.
"Young master, there is a problem with this envoy group" Although Bini was only focused on Zhang Hao, his intuition told him that there was a problem, but he couldn't think of what the problem was.
Zhang Hao stared at the badge and carefully recalled all the details of his meeting with Isha today. The others also shut up and fell silent when they saw Zhang Hao thinking, and they also began to think about what happened today.
Appeared abruptly, and has been leading the team to track himself? There are also many people in the Isati team, how could he not be aware of it? He also said that he came down with him, why didn't he find out...... Wait a minute.
Zhang Hao put down his badge and suddenly asked Echard and Bini, "When we met with the emir, did the emir say that the envoys had been staying for a few days?" ”
Bini listened to Zhang Hao's prompt and stood up, "Young master, I thought about it, the emir said that the city of freedom is not something that can be experienced in a few days, which means that the emir may have been in contact with the envoys a few days ago!" ”
"Did the emir say such a thing?" Echard was a little confused, he didn't understand how much suspicion his science had aroused.
"It's not possible, either there's a problem with the envoys, or there's a problem with the emir, Teucer, you go to that post tomorrow and ask me about the details of the envoys, and Ike will give Teucer some money and let him take care of it." Echard reluctantly pulled out dozens of gold coins under Teucer's enthusiastic gaze.
"Binny, work hard, rush back to Earhart overnight and bring the Knights of the Sun directly, as well as my car, if there is a real problem, it may be a little late to rush over, we have to do everything in our best."
"Yes, young master, I'll leave immediately!"
