In the dungeon of Dadan City, where there has never been a prison escape in ten years, a thief has mysteriously disappeared. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

A dying thief who was beaten and died mysteriously disappeared that same night. On that day, when the jailer checked the prisoners.

The cell was empty.

The jailer's face turned the color of pig liver.

How could it be......

He kept thinking about it in his head, and finally came up with an answer that he couldn't imagine.

Finally, when he was escorted by the lord of the city to punish him.

Another thing happened that shook the whole castle.

Knight Jeremy? Hubble, and Sir Jeffrey? Hubble's maid, eloped!

This matter reached the ears of the old city lord, and the old city lord, who had silver hair and a thick beard, stood up angrily.

The first time he saw the kind old city lord angry, no, it was the first time he was angry, he finally knew what the anger of the superior was, when that angry aura emanated, his whole person fell into an ice cellar, he didn't dare to look at the old city lord, he mustered up the courage to sneak a glance at the old city lord.

It felt like a mountain, like a mountain coming down.

He was so scared that his legs and stomach were shaking!

Dadan City was closed overnight, and both the displaced people who wanted to move in and the merchants who went out were confined to the outside and inside of the city.

Jeffery? Hubble led the knights of Dadan City overnight to erect some military tents to give shelter to those who could not enter the city.

However, tents are limited, but the number of displaced people who want to move into Dadan City far exceeds the number of tents.

There is no way, most of the homeless people can only get drenched in the rain outside.

Why is this Jeffrey? Hubble was about to set up a tent outside, and after the lockdown, it immediately started to fall.

To this, Jeffrey? Hubble had nothing to do, and the wise heir, after trying to persuade his father to no avail, stood on the outer wall, took off his armor, and dressed in simple clothes.

In all the places where the homeless people could see, they stood silently, letting the rain blow and the wind blow.

He was drenched in the rain with the outcasts outside the city.

That's the only thing he can do.

He stood up straight, one hand pressed against his sword.

Silently watch over these people who are eager to become their own people.

To this, Haraus? The Hubble City Lord didn't stop him, as if he was letting one of his sons play tricks, and he didn't pay any attention to it.

His whole mind was on searching for another son who had eloped with a lowly maid.

He didn't even have time to convict the derelict jailer, and threw him directly into the dungeon, which was now forgotten.

eloped with a maid......

In this society that values bloodline and honor.

This will undoubtedly make his face gloomy, originally he has always liked this younger son, although his talent is not as good as the eldest son, but his temperament and talent are not inferior to himself, and even have the momentum of being blue.

Although he locked himself in the deepest basement of the castle.

But what artist wouldn't do something out of the ordinary?

He knew his son well and was proud of him.

But I didn't expect that this son actually dug a tunnel, secretly had a private meeting with his brother's maid, and finally developed into elopement!

It's just rebellious!

He's going to burn that maid to death!

Then, punish this unscrupulous son severely.

Only this matter, this thing that made him a laughing stock, is absolutely unforgivable!

However, for three days in a row, the city was searched inside and outside the city.

No news.

As if it had disappeared, he turned over the entire city and the castle.

However, nothing.

Traces, traces, nothing.

It was as if the world had suddenly evaporated.

For three days, the atmosphere of the entire castle was in a state of tension, and the lord of the castle was in anger almost every day.

This lord, who built this city with his military exploits, exudes a terrifying aura that ordinary nobles do not have, whether it is ministers or knights, no one has a word of disobedience, and no one dares to say a word more.

As soon as you enter the castle, everyone will feel a sense of oppression, as if their shoulders are being weighed down by a heavy object.

It was really the first time they had seen the lord so angry.

I also really feel that the lord is really an extraordinary nobleman.

However, the escaped thieves and the eloped Master Jeremy still haven't heard from him at all.

……

On the fourth day of the lockdown, the rain gradually stopped, and it continued to rain for three days.

On this day, Jeffrey? Hubble hurried back to the castle from the outer walls, and upon returning to the castle, he summoned all the castle doctors, even their apprentices.

"How's the medicine stockpile?" As Jeffrey returned to the council chamber, he asked the first two doctors to arrive.

The two doctors, both gray-haired old men, said one of them, "Not enough." ”

Jeffrey frowned, and said: "The people outside the city, after three days of rain, I am afraid that there will be an outbreak of disease soon, although the food has been distributed, there will be no hunger and disease, but the disease of cold will definitely break out, prepare all the medicines, you will send some reliable apprentices to the outside of the city to treat the homeless people all day long." ”

"But the old lord has sealed the city...... said the other worriedly.

"This is my command, and I take all the responsibility." This Jeffrey? Sir Hubble, the decision was made cleanly.

"But ......"

"Do you want a plague outbreak?" Jeffrey's eyes flashed, and his whole body suddenly exuded an aura similar to that of the old city lord.

That kind of heavy, instinctively oppressive and fearful momentum.

emanating from such a young man.

It's like a battle-hardened or well-honed superior.

I can't see it at all, it's just emanating from a young man in his early twenties.

The two doctors looked at each other.

Disobey the orders of the old city lord and break out of a plague......

They made a decision in an instant.

They bowed down and promised.

Jeffery? Hubble walked without stopping, and went straight into the council chamber, which was already filled with ministers and knights.

A large part of this place is my father's old department, who followed him all the way to the battlefield, or my father's friends, who are some trusted and relied on courtiers and uncles.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I know that my father is in a rage right now, and it is difficult for a strong man to make these demands, but if he does not handle it well, the city of Dadan will be destroyed. I would like to ask you for some help with some property, we need to order a batch of medicines. "Jeffrey? Hubble stepped into the council chamber and stood directly on the edge of the high-backed chair that symbolized the position of the lord of the city, but instead of sitting on it, he stood next to it, like a son who stood next to his father to assist the government.

He didn't greet him too much, and even the basic etiquette of the nobility was not taken care of.

Here sat the real powerful figures in Dadan City, and at this time everyone looked at each other and whispered.

Obviously, there are some ideas about this claim to their property.

However, Jeffrey did not interrupt them, and this situation was also expected by him. He just reminded everyone to be quiet, and then asked the two doctors to describe the current situation in detail.

When the doctor finished, there was still a whisper.

Jeffery? Hubble watched everything, but didn't interfere with their whispers, just stood quietly.

The posture is straight, and the instrument is lofty.

In front of these powerful people, they still stand out from the crowd.

Half an hour later, Jeffrey? Hubble hurried out of the council chamber, his face not half relaxed because the nobles had agreed to contribute, but more solemn.

At this time, one of the guards he summoned happened to arrive.

"How? How's the delivery of medicines from outside? "Jeffrey? Hubble asked, without stopping.

"The merchants have already taken care of it, and it is estimated that it will be delivered the day after tomorrow." The guard hurriedly followed his footsteps and said.

"I still need a reliable chancellor of the exchequer by my side, so let's choose from the businessmen who will help unconditionally this time." Jeffery? Hubble said.

"Got it." The guard replied, then he hesitated for a moment and said, "There is a strange merchant who has asked to see you, saying that there is news of your interest. ”

"Message?" Jeffery? Hubble paused slightly, then said, "Call him to my bedroom, and I'll meet him later." ”

"Yes! My lord. With that, the guards withdrew.

Jeffery? Hubble, this time the castle was busy all day, and by the time he got back to his dormitory, it was already night.

He hasn't eaten yet.

"Eat some cheese bread? My lord, I came from that obnoxious fat man. A man dressed as a merchant in front of him was looking at him with a smile on his face with a gold bun and cheese bread in his hand.

Jeffery? Hubble hurriedly closed the door.

"You're so bold!" He turned around and looked at the merchant.

There is an old saying in the East, "The most dangerous place is the safest place" You can remember. ”

The merchant stood up, took off his hat, and saluted.

"Under the merchant Yu? Ye, the Lord who has seen me. ”
