Chapter 285: Prison Farce

The prisoners next door, accustomed to the birds' anger of the jailers, were at first afraid of being implicated, and huddled in the corners of their cells to watch the farce. Later, he was infected by Higg's momentum and began to shout noisily: "Don't go out!" Don't go out ......"

More than 30 soldiers from the city defense battalion quickly rushed into the cell with swords and shields, and surrounded Higg's cell.

Yawanti kept roaring: "Quick, even if the cell is demolished, I have to drag him out for me!" ”

The prisoners in the cell next door, who were originally noisy, were frightened by the surging city guards, and hurriedly crowded into the corner of the cell together, watching the lively and incredible spectacle quietly again as if watching a big play.

Higg didn't bother to toss with these people, he lay on the bed and closed his eyes to recuperate, and waited until the Hercules shield energy was about to disappear, and then cast a spell to supplement and continue to block those city defenders outside.

Dozens of soldiers from the city defense battalion were unable to break through the obstacles of the Hercules Aegis, so they had to dismantle the iron-wood fences of the cells little by little, and reclaim the ground with hoes, hoping to carry Higg's bed from behind the Hercules Shield to the outside of the cell.

"What are you doing?" An angry shout came from the cell door.

All the men stopped moving, and did not dare to move, because behind the man were several guards in golden armor, and although the men of the city defense camp did not know the leader, it was impossible for them not to know these guards, because they all wore a silver cross on their chests.

Others didn't know the leader, but it was impossible for Avanti not to know him, his face was pale, and he looked at Sklell tremblingly, looking at this powerful and powerful governor.

"Oh, what are you doing here, demolishing the cell?" Guayada dodged past Sklell and shouted curiously.

The captain of the city defense battalion trotted up to Sklya and said, "My lord, we have been ordered to come to the cell and release ...... Release the suspects! ”

"Since you are a suspect, why should you be released?" Scorley said angrily, "Whose order are you?" ”

"Yes...... Be...... It was on the orders of the son of Avanti! ”

"Who is Avanti?" Scorley asked.

"Lord Steward, the villain is none other than Avanti!" Avanti hurriedly stepped forward, bowed and said.

Szklya then asked, "What department are you in, and what position do you have?" Why should you order the men of the city defense battalion to run errands? On what basis was the suspect released? ”

"Lord Steward, can you take a step to speak?" Avanti whispered.

"If you have anything to say, just say it openly here!" Sklell glared at Avanti and said loudly.

"This ...... It was because the Earl had detained Her Royal Highness the Princess, so the villain made an assertion and was arrested for interrogation! Avanti hesitated for a moment and said.

"Seize the princess?" Guayada laughed and said, "Her Royal Highness has already arrived at my residence, and now that she is in the palace, how can the Earl have detained the princess!" ”

"What?" Yavanti originally had a glimmer of hope, but now the charge against Hig is no longer established, and he can't help but look like ashes, and said, "It's the villain's negligence for a while, and the villain is willing to bear all the consequences!" ”

"You? I'm afraid you don't have the right to bear it! Scorley said angrily, "Who gave you the arrest warrant from the Ministry of War, who gave you the power to mobilize the city defense battalion, and who gave you the courage to arrest the Earl on the street?" ”

Avanti collapsed to the ground, unable to speak......

"Take him down and take him back to Ouchi for a slow trial!" Szlee said to the queen's guard beside him, and then pointed to the captain of the city defense battalion who was still kneeling on the ground, "And him!" ”

"Yes, sir!" Several cross guards on both sides came out and dragged out the limp Avanti and the captain of the city defense battalion.

"Others, go back and be on standby, waiting for the summons at any time!"

……

The twists and turns surprised the prisoners in the next cell, and they began to gather at the gate again and continue to enjoy the drama.

With an exorcism method in his right hand, Sklell expelled the Hercules shield in front of Higg, and then said with a smile: "Okay, Lord Earl, don't pretend to be dead!" ”

"Hahaha!" Guayada laughed and said, "You kid is so tasteless, you can have so much fun with this kind of kitten and puppy, I really convince you!" ”

Higg slowly got up and sat up, and said solemnly, "Why should I have any intention of playing with them? They arrested me, and they wanted to release me before they could do it, and they wanted me to be convicted of escaping from prison, can I be fooled? Marshal Guayada, why don't you try it, you haven't eaten or drunk here, and you've been hungry for more than ten days? The water in Wangcheng is too deep, and if you are not careful, you will be choked, so I'd better be honest! What are the two adults doing in the cell? ”

Scklee said: "The Fifth Legion is urgent, Your Majesty wants to see you immediately!" ”

"See me?" Higg said with a puzzled face, "I'm a suspect now, the arrest warrant issued by the Ministry of War, and I was arrested on the street by the city defense battalion, and I haven't passed the hall yet, two adults, if you bring the verdict or the king's decree, I'll go with you, otherwise, how do I know if you are lying to me?" I was frightened in the royal city, so I didn't fall for you! ”

"You ......" Before Sklell could speak, Guayada exploded in anger, "This is the head of Ouchi, and he can still lie to you with His Majesty's words!" Are you going to ignore the military situation of the Fifth Army? ”

"Can the people involved in the case still lead soldiers?" Higg sneered, "The affairs of the Fifth Legion, you can take care of whoever you like, I, the marshal, was originally a temporary agent, but now I am happy to be a rich man, just take care of my fiefdom Fuxing City!" ”

"Humph!" Scorley snorted coldly, "No wonder Your Majesty said that you have no reverence for the royal power, it seems that Your Majesty really has a unique vision, if you really don't come out, we can't do anything about you, but you'd better think clearly here, if you want to go out, no one will stop you!" ”

Higg was shocked, but then calmed down and said, "Your words, Lord Steward, can scare me to death!" Since Your Majesty thinks that I have no reverence for her, please take back my military power, take back my title, and even take my life. What Your Majesty is worried about, you and I know it in our hearts, for my father, and for me! Since reverence is so important, let those who spend their days flattering and fearing do things. Ten years have passed, the territory of Erathia has been constantly warned, and the people are poisoned, at this time, where is the awe of the royal power, where is the dignity of the royal power? The large territory controlled by Arad has been ten years, and in a few years, it will be a whole generation, and I would like to ask the Governor, Your Majesty, where is the awe of the people under the control of Arad, are they in awe of Her Majesty, or are they in awe of Arad? Is their reverence for royal power for Her Majesty, or for Arad? I don't know politics, and I don't bother to get involved with you politicians, I know intrigue all day long, and what kind of people are being played with? I feel so sorry for my father! It's ridiculous to find awe in someone else, but to try to make up for it from me! ”

Guayada was shocked, and the bold Hig dared to say such a rebellious thing in front of the chief of Ouchi, and he simply cut himself off.

"Do you dare to say these words to Your Majesty?" Scklee was also a little surprised that this Higg was so rampant.

"Hahaha!" Higg laughed, "What about saying it to your face? As Marshal Guayada said, I had a lot of fun with those cats and dogs! Yes, I'm playing with them, in my eyes, they are not even as good as cats and dogs, but their father is in awe of royal power, so they can do whatever they want! If I don't play with them, sooner or later, I will be played to death like my father! Then ask those of them who are in great awe to carry out the king's command and serve before the army! ”

"You ......" Marshal Guayada stomped his foot, looking like he hated iron but not steel, but he didn't know what to say.

"Marshal Guayada, I admire your reverence for royal power!" Higg sneered, "But I look down on you!" ”

"What's wrong with me?" Guayada asked curiously, "Why did I make you look down on you?" ”

"The revival fleet is almost destroyed in the hands of your Second Legion's navy!" Higg laughed, "Are you trying to make me forget about it?" Even if it wasn't your order, if it wasn't the information you gave to provide, if it wasn't for your advice to die, I would put the account on your head, because this matter, from beginning to end, no one has ever given any explanation to Fuxing City, because you feel that everything is taken for granted in front of the royal power, and there is no need to explain at all, even if my revival fleet is completely wiped out, it is only for the sake of the king's awe to make a little contribution! ”

Guayada bowed his head and said, "You're right, you can look down on me!" Even if I only found out afterwards that this kind of thing happened to the Navy, I can only bear this account! ”

"Your Excellency, you don't have to look at me like that!" Higg continued, "The reverence for royal power will never be shaken in your hearts, but in my heart it will never save the people from the smoke of gunpowder and make the happiness of the people of all families come to an important point!" You are different from me, I have lived in the war-torn Ural Grand Canyon since I was a child, I have seen a lot of blood, I have seen a lot of scenes of life and death, so my Fuxing City at first absorbed refugees who lost their homes in the war, and I did my part to let millions of people be redeemed, I felt a great satisfaction in my heart, so in order to let more people get the salvation of suffering, I chose His Majesty's camp instead of Arad, this choice of course also has my personal reasons, to quell the civil war and work hard. What I did was not for the fear of royal power, but first for the peace of the people, and then for the stability of the country. You can tell your majesty what I have said, and tell her that I have no intention of snooping on the royal power, and that as a sign of sincerity, I am willing to surrender the military power of the Fifth Legion!" But I will continue to support Your Majesty until the end of the civil war! ”

"That's what you think?" Sklell said, "But why do you deliberately welcome Her Royal Highness? Didn't you say that you don't have the reverence of kingship? ”

"That's what I'm most tired about!" Higg said, "There are some things that I don't deliberately greet and make gestures, and I don't have power in the court, so wouldn't it be even more difficult to move an inch and be drowned by saliva?" ”

"Is it just a gesture?" Sleek asked again.

"You all say I don't have a sense of reverence, so what am I not posturing?" "I wanted to stay here until you were done with all this trouble before I was released from prison, and I would talk to you about how to counterattack." Now I don't have to, I'll be released from prison right away and go back to Fuxing City! Your Excellency the Governor and the Marshal, please tell Your Majesty that the affairs of the Fifth Legion have nothing to do with me from now on, and I will not say goodbye! That's it, farewell! ”

With that, Higg strode towards the cell door, leaving Sklell and Guayada stunned......
