Segolena had seen the bishop in the main hall and remembered that his name was Joseph, but he had passed by in a hurry and had little impression. His sudden appearance at this time was really unexpected.

Before Segolena could reply, the sleeves of the archbishop's robe were raised, and he had already punched out. The strength of the fist is extremely powerful, Segolena knows that this is a real move, and he can't use his body to be skillful, so he immediately used the proverbs to make a real skill, and in an instant the energy spread throughout his body, he held the staff in his right hand, and the palm of his left hand was obliquely oblique.

This punch was a palm without the slightest false move, and the two fierce and fierce internal forces collided head-on, with a bang, and the old and the young each took five steps back. Segolena felt that his palms were sore, and the four fluids in his body were churning, and he secretly praised the old man's fist power was really terrifying, and the archbishop was even more shocked and angry, the punch just now brought together his own decades of theological cultivation, but now he was on par with a Turkish pagan child, and his self-esteem was greatly insulted.

He has a violent personality, how can he bear this kind of loss, with a flick of his sleeves, his fists are struck out again and again, and a wave is as tight as a wave. This is his famous stunt "Occam's True Fist", and St. Francis' great Je Occam once said: The truth in the world is the simplest and the most direct. It is this set of boxing methods that do not take false moves, go straight forward, and rely on internal force to urge, as long as he firmly believes that what he holds is the truth, he can fight all the way to the end, which is most suitable for his temperament. At that time, Joseph once beat the bronze bell more than 40 times on the top of the cathedral in Novgorod with his bare hands to send the patriarch to the funeral. The hardness of his fist can be imagined.

Seeing the ferocity, Segolena also became competitive. He hadn't played at full strength since he left the Valley, and this was his chance. He operated the four liquids according to the Xi's mental method, and the double ** was smooth and unimpeded, and he saw the way to come, and rose up with both palms to face the enemy. The sand and rocks in the field were flying for a while, and the sound of bangs and collisions was endless, and it was difficult to distinguish between them. Everyone present was stunned and dizzy. Mallord was even more apprehensive, if he hadn't intervened without this bishop, he would not be the opponent of this eccentric young man.

Their moves are hard to shake with their fists, and they all rely on internal forces to compete, and there is absolutely no trick in it. In the blink of an eye, Segolena and the archbishop had exchanged more than ten palms. The latter's rock-breaking fist penetrated into Segolena's body, causing his own internal force to "boom" and circulate rapidly. When this master, the potential is stimulated one by one, like a typhoon drumming, each drum swings, there is more potential. Although he felt a lot of pain in his flesh, his whole body was indescribably comfortable.

This battle was really generous and heroic, and both of them did their best, leaving no stone unturned, and fought heartily. When it came to the fifty-sixth move, the archbishop and Segolena's bodies were a little unbearable, and if it continued like this, it would inevitably be a situation where they would end up together, and the two of them looked at each other wrongly and jumped away at the same time.

Segolena looked down and gasped, his hands were already fleshy and bloody, and he was afraid that his bones would also be damaged, and Archbishop Joseph had his fists hidden in his sleeves, and he couldn't see the injury clearly, but his face was more red than Shicai, like drinking alcohol. The archbishop looked at Segolena again, glared at his bronze bell-like eyes and exclaimed, "What do you have to do with the Holy See?"

It turned out that when he was competing just now, he felt that this young man's internal strength was vast and open, and his strictness was quite similar to the Holy See's mental method, but the subtleties were very different. Greek Orthodoxy and Roman Catholicism are of the same origin, and they are generally consistent in martial arts, because Joseph was able to perceive the subtleties in them—but he did not know that Segolena was a master of the Proverbs and a descendant of the Gospel of Matthew.

Segolena felt that his identity could not be easily revealed at this time, so he breathed a sigh and reluctantly smiled: "Bishop, your expectations are good, my teacher is a person from the Holy See. He replied cleverly, neither admitting his identity nor speaking a word. Archbishop Joseph became more and more angry, snatched a handful of ** from the soldier next to him, and pouted from it, and scolded: "Since he is a descendant of the Holy See, he is a servant of God, how can he fight with *** for the tiger, huh?!" Segolena had not yet distinguished, and Yulinia on the side rushed to Joseph's side, tugging on his sleeve and said: "Archbishop Grandpa, you blame him!"

Archbishop Joseph's eyes softened when he saw Yulinia. He was extremely tall, and Yulinia was only up to his waist, so the bishop had to hang his head and say, "Didn't you tell me to come and clean up this kid?" Yulinia was a little embarrassed, glanced at Segolena, and whispered: "He is pretending to be an emissary, and we are all wrong to blame him," Archbishop Joseph stroked his chin and beard, and laughed: "Hey, I said how this Turk has blonde hair, I see! Why didn't you say it earlier?"

Everyone around them thought, "If you don't ask questions, you will fight when you come up, where can you tell the difference?" Segolena was even more incredibly laughing, thinking that the bishop's temper was really terrible, but it was more fiery than his fist. Archbishop Joseph flicked his sleeves, gave a thumbs up to Segolena, and praised: "You kid has some internal strength, and you can actually fight against the real fist of Occam in this seat, rare, rare!" Segolena didn't know how to be polite, and said bluntly: "It's also rare for the old man to have this kind of fist power." Archbishop Joseph laughed when he heard this: "Today's fight is very happy. I see that your hands are not lightly injured, and I have good medicine for the wounds, so I will send someone to fetch it for you to put it on you. Segolena said: "Thank you for your concern, my hand is really tight." Seeing that he spoke straightforwardly and without pretentiousness, Archbishop Joseph was quite fond of him, and said proudly: "The true fist technique of this seat is unbreakable, even if your internal strength is abundant, your flesh and skin can't stand it." ”

With that, he turned to Luciumarcus, his face grimacing. Luciumarcu and Malaud saw the sudden appearance of the archbishop, who was not as prestigious as the Grand Duke of Moldova in Suceava, and who had a very violent personality, and who was the most infidelous in his life, and was the backbone of the anti-Turkish forces in the city. At this time, Archbishop Joseph looked at him, and Luciumarcus had no choice but to step forward and salute him. Archbishop Joseph said: "Lord Deacon, what is the reason why you mobilized so many soldiers to besiege the Sventovites in the middle of the night?" Luciumaku said: "Do you know that this kid infiltrated our city under the guise of a Turkish envoy and came to fight with the Sventovites in the back garden of the castle in the middle of the night! ”

He knew that the archbishop had a very good relationship with the Sventovites, and that if he falsely accused them of being in contact with foreign enemies, the bishop would not believe them, so he changed his story to say that the Sventovites were fighting with Segolena, and that he had only transferred troops to maintain order. When outsiders heard this, they thought that he was loyal to the Lord. Bishop Joseph mocked: "The Turkish envoys have been impersonated, what are you anxious about? They are not your own father! Are you afraid that the Turkish army will come late and will not be able to hold the hairy thighs?" Whether it is war or peace is all decided by the Grand Duke, and we dare not speculate as subordinates. However, now that the war has not yet begun, it is an international practice to treat envoys with courtesy. If the two countries have not yet killed each other, how can I be at ease if the Moldovan army and people are caught in the flames of war because of these small defects? Moreover, as the saying goes, render to God what is God's, and to Caesar what is Caesar's. Archbishop, you are in charge of the national ordinances of Moldova, but the political affairs are all in the Catholic. Now that the Grand Duke is still here, how can you go beyond your boundaries?"

These words were high-sounding, with guns and sticks, and he didn't say anything, and he also beat the archbishop upside down. Archbishop Joseph was furious when he heard this, and his huge fists creaked, but he was not good at it. Lucimaku said, "Aren't you here to capture this imposter, Archbishop?"

This is a very vicious question, and if the archbishop confesses that he has come to kill the Turkish envoy, he will be guilty of sabotaging the peace conference, and if he says that he wants to capture the impostor, the young man is in front of him, and it is up to you to protect him. The left and right answers are uncomfortable. Only then did Segolena know that there were so many twists and turns in the dialogue in the world.

Archbishop Joseph, though hot-tempered, was not a fool. He heard the trap in the words, and waved his big hand: "This seat is only here to take care of the disciples and grandchildren of Old Man Novis's faction, but there is not much else. He summoned Yulinia, Zio, and the rest of his disciples, but ignored Manod.

Yulinia looked back abruptly and gestured to Segolena to come too. Luciumaku said loudly: "Wait, this kid is pretending to be a messenger, no matter what the motive is, he has committed the crime of deceiving the Grand Duke, and no one is allowed to take it away!" Archbishop Joseph sneered: "You also say that there is a separation of church and state, and this seat does not care about this. You have what it takes, go keep him yourself!" he gently kicked the ball to Luciumarcu.

Segolena's skills are well known, and Archbishop Joseph's cultivation has not yet been able to prevail in a hundred moves. There is only one Mallord under Lucius's command who can be called a master, which is easy to say "to keep", but it is extremely difficult to do. Sventovet sent everyone to see his face change, and they were not happy. Yulinia clapped her hands and laughed: "Lord Deacon enforces the law strictest, whether you are a bandit, a fugitive, a snitch or a Turk, you will not show favoritism." She spoke softly, like a brittle ear silver bell, but her words were extremely spicy.

Seeing this, Archbishop Joseph held back the deacon, and raised his fingers to Segolena and said, "Boy, if Deacon Luciumarcus misses for a while, he will not keep you. You can go to the church in the city and ask for God's forgiveness, and God will always open the door to those who sincerely repent. ”

As early as 1,000 years ago, the Roman Emperor Constantine issued an imperial edict that all Christian churches in all districts had the right of refuge, and those who fled could enter the church in the name of repentance to seek refuge, and the government at all levels was not allowed to interfere. Since then, it has been a common practice in various places, and Suceava is no exception. Archbishop Joseph said this, clearly inviting Segolena to speak with him, but there was no clue in his words. Lu Xiumaku was so angry that he gritted his molars, and only hated that there was no one under him, so he made the vertical run rampant.

Mallord leaned into Lucius' ear and whispered, "My lord, today's situation is not good for us, so it's better to let it go for the time being." Luciumarcu weighed it again, looked at Segolena, and said to Archbishop Joseph with hatred: "Since you exercise the right of protection, Bishop, I can't say anything. However, if the Grand Duke asks about the envoy, please explain it yourself. ”

Archbishop Joseph was impatient: "This seat will take care of itself, this is what I will do!" Luciumarcus snorted, turned to leave, and the soldiers around him also put their swords into their sheaths, loosened their crossbows back to the box, followed Mallord, and walked cleanly in a while.

Segolena followed Bishop Joseph and Sventovet out of the Grand Duke's Castle and made their way through the city to the Cathedral of San Cyril in the west of the city. Segolena walked to the door of the church, suddenly stopped, and said to Archbishop Joseph: "I am a Catholic, and I cannot enter the Orthodox church. Archbishop Joseph slapped him on the shoulder with his big hand, and said displeasedly: "This kid, what do you say, there is nothing! There is only one God, where can there be Greece and Rome!" Segolena said: "Where the canon is, I dare not disobey it." Archbishop Joseph said: "This is the most prejudiced in my life, the East and the West are treated equally, and I don't know how many priests from Rome and Avignon have entered this church, and you are young, but you are more brainless than the Cistercian monks." Segolena said: "The Greek Church does not recognize the Roman Pope as orthodox, but respects the Byzantine patriarch, which is ultimately inconsistent with my teachings." ”

Segolena was very theologically literate and had a rare opportunity to play at this time. Yulinia couldn't help but laugh when she saw that he was obviously childish, but he was seriously discussing theology with Bishop Joseph. Segolena saw her smiling and was in a daze for a moment. Archbishop Joseph said abruptly: "Ignorant boy, how do you know! Eighty years ago, Grand Duke Peter Musart broke with the Byzantine Church, and since then all the Moldovan bishops have been appointed by the Grand Duke himself, and have nothing to do with the Byzantine Patriarch. I am also a native of Alexandru's courtesy, so why should Constantinople be with me?" said Segolena, and then stepped in.

When the people entered the church, they sat down on the pews. Archbishop Joseph summoned the priests and priests and told them to light candles and bring some bandages of medicine. In a short time, when everything was ready and the church was brightly lit, Joseph said to Yulinia, "Go and help him to bandage his hands, for the girl's house will have to do this." Yulinia said, "Archbishop Grandpa, don't you need to apply some medicine?" Joseph pretended to be angry and said: "This seat is nicknamed Steel Fist Iron Bone, how can a small hairy head be injured?" Yulinia giggled and said: "Yes, who wants to hurt your old man, unless he can tear down this church with his bare hands." Everyone laughed, Archbishop Joseph had always taken good care of the Sventovites, and he was used to joking, and he didn't have much to offer.

As she spoke, she washed Segolena's wound with clean water, carefully smeared a layer of ointment, and wrapped it in a linen bandage. She was busy bandaging, occasionally looking up, seeing Segolena staring at her intently, her face was embarrassed, and she said softly: "What do you see me doing?" Segolena spoke directly and said with a smile: "You are good-looking, so naturally you want to look at it twice." When Yulinia heard this, she was embarrassed, and two red clouds rose on her white face, and she hurriedly lowered her head and said, "Bah! Don't say good things!

Segolena only hoped that her slender hands would stop for a few more hours, but unfortunately Yulinia finished the bandage, got up in a hurry, and sat down next to Zio and the other doormen, without looking at this side, which made him stunned for a while. When everything was settled, Archbishop Joseph sat down opposite Segolena, poured a cup of green mint, and said with a solemn face: "Old man Novas and I are good friends, and he has entrusted me to take care of his protégé. Tell me, is that boy still alive?" Segolena concealed his origins, starting with the Turkish envoy on the road. When they heard that Swing had been beheaded three times by the Turkish envoy with the "virtue of Allah", Zio and the other Sventovites wept with grief, and Yulinia hid her face with her hands, and her shoulders trembled. She had already guessed that Segolena had just lied to her, but she didn't want to think about it, and now that she heard that Magic had died, her grief grew even more unbearable.

Archbishop Joseph took a sip of mint juice and let out a long sigh: "This kid has been impulsive since he was a child. A few days ago, he went to assassinate the envoy, and I said that this matter was very important, and that it should not be acted lightly, and his brothers and sisters also persuaded him. But this boy left the city in a bad mood, and lost his life. If a few of the men had followed him, how could the three Turkish messengers hurt him? ”

Segolena said: "The Swift brothers are really heroes. I have buried his body, and it is very good to have a sword in front of his grave, and you will find it in the past. Zio stood up and said that I would go and prepare the horse at once. Archbishop Joseph waved his hand, asked him to sit down first, turned his head and said: "So you stripped the Turkish envoy of his clothes and put it on yourself, and swaggered to Suceava, am I right?" Segolena nodded slightly, and Joseph wondered: "Why did you come to Suceava to pretend to be an envoy?"

Segolena was hesitant, he had no intention of posing as a messenger, and Brother Kavanagh repeatedly explained that the Proverbs were too extensive to be easily revealed. Joseph asked, not knowing if he should tell the truth. Joseph saw that he was about to speak and stopped, and guessed that it must be a secret thing, and said with a smile: "You don't have to be embarrassed. Since you can help Swift, it can be seen that you are also a righteous person, and a righteous person can never be wrong. Seeing that the archbishop was generous and not for himself, Segolena was a little more impressed. He suddenly thought that Archbishop Joseph was the archbishop of Suceava, and his martial arts were high, and he might be able to know the relationship between the "Proverbs" and a certain big man in Suceava, and his heart moved, and he said: "It is a matter of confidentiality, and I can only tell you the archbishop." ”

Joseph was stunned for a moment, but then he understood, and asked the Sventovets to wait, and called Segolena to the back hall of the church. On the wing of the throne in the back hall stood a wooden hut, divided into two by a board, each with a small jujube door, both locked, and covered with a black curtain. Joseph took out a bronze key from his waist, opened one of the small doors, and said, "Go in, there is only God here except you and me, and you can speak freely." Joseph was astonished, for this young man was so talkative and so knowledgeable about theology that he had never even seen a confessional room?

The two of them entered each room, and Joseph prayed quietly for a while, then pulled open the partition and said: "Words come from you, words come from you, words come in by yourself, God is the witness, and the seal is everywhere." This is a routine exhortation before confession, which is meant to tell the confessor to let go of his concerns and speak freely. So Segolena talked about how Viscount Durand came with the "Proverbs" seven years ago, how he adopted him on the way, how he met the monk on the way, how he fought the leopard prince, how he fell into the valley, etc., and talked for nearly an hour in one breath, only hiding the true identity of Brother Kavanagh. Joseph was dumbfounded, not expecting such a miracle to have happened in Moldova seven years earlier. After Segolena finished speaking, the archbishop said: "No wonder your doll has such a strange internal force at a young age, this "Proverbs of the Two Snakes" really has some doorways!"

Segolena said, "You know everything about my experience. I wonder if you have any clues that can help me fulfill my father's long-cherished wish?" the archbishop pondered for a moment, "You can ask me." I have been bishop here for more than ten years, and I have never heard anything about Proverbs. Segolena said: "You are a world friend of Mr. Novas of the Sventovet faction, and he is the number one master in Moldova, and he didn't mention this to you?" Joseph frowned and said: "If this 'great man of Suceava' refers to the old man of Novas, I shouldn't know it. After thinking about it again, he said, "The Sventovets have been the Grand Duke's guards for generations, and they have a deep relationship. If Old Man Novas had any secrets, the Grand Duke of Moldova might know. Segolena thought to himself that the Grand Duke was about to die, and did not know what to ask. Joseph added, "If you had gone out of the valley a month earlier, you would have caught up with Old Man Novis, who knew that it would be such a coincidence." ”

Segolena was involved in the Suceava dispute today, and he listened to the internal strife of the Sventovites, and hurriedly asked, "How did Teacher Novas disappear?" Joseph snorted coldly and said indignantly: "This can be regarded as a strange thing in this city. He's got a good apprentice!Have you seen that Mallord?" Segolena snorted, feeling that the man was scheming and couldn't figure it out. Joseph said: "Malod was originally the chief disciple of Old Man Novis, the stinky boy is quite talented, and his martial arts are proud of the whole family, and he is the head of the next generation. Although the stinky boy was originally a little yin, he was still a man in the end, but for some reason, he hooked up with Luxiu Makun's kind dog thing, and his temperament changed greatly. Old man Novas was repeatedly punished, but Mallord remained the same. This time the Ottoman Turks came, the old man Novas was the main battle, and Luciumaku was the main peace, and the two argued endlessly. Ten days ago, Mallord suddenly found Old Man Novis, and the two entered the house and talked secretly for a long time, but no one knew what to talk about. On the night after the conversation, Old Man Novas suddenly disappeared, and the White Horse Crest, the token of the head of the Sventovites, suddenly ran into the hands of Mallord. Mallord said that the teacher of this department taught it himself, but he couldn't tell where the teacher was, and they all said that he had killed the teacher, but there was no evidence!"

Segolena said hatefully: "If it weren't for the Bishop's intervention just now, I would have abolished this master killer with a heavy hand. Archbishop Joseph's face turned red and he said, "At that time, the situation was in chaos, how can this seat know your details?" Besides, how could Old Man Novas have fallen into the way of Mallord with his great martial arts? ”

Since seeing the martial arts of Malaud, Swingette, Zio, Yulinia and other disciples, Segolena greatly admired the style of the Sventovites, but in the martial arts section, he felt that he was average, and promoted his apprentices and teachers...... Joseph saw through his thoughts, and said with a straight face: "Young man, Old Man Novas has been immersed in martial arts for decades, and he is really already a sect master. Even if I do my best, I may not be able to defeat him, but don't underestimate him. ”

Segolena said, "Thank you for the bishop's advice, I already have a plan. I'll go to the Grand Duke's castle at night, and the Grand Duke may find something there. Archbishop Joseph exclaimed: "They were just about to capture you, and now you are not going to fall into the net?" Segolena laughed: "The soldiers are not tired of deceit, how could they think that I dare to go and return." Joseph said, "The gates of the Grand Duke's castle will be closed at night." The walls are more than ten feet high, how do you get in?" Segolena said, "Don't worry about this, I have my own way. Joseph knew that this young man was a peerless scholar and his martial arts were unfathomable, so he no longer hindered him, cocked his thumb and said, "Sure enough, he has the courage." He told Segolena to wait and took out a small green porcelain vase from the cabinet behind him. He pulled the lid and poured out a few small green pills from it: "This is a miraculous medicine treasured by this seat, called Bergen Tzu Chi Pill, which can stop pain. Your hands have just been injured, so take the pill under the base of your tongue to keep you from being injured or sick for a moment. Segolena took the pill and held it as he said.

The two walked back to the main hall hand in hand, and Sventovet sent everyone to get up and ask each other. Archbishop Joseph really didn't mention his origin, only said that Segolena was a young man from the Balkans, and it was difficult for others to ask about it. The archbishop also said that Segolena was determined to visit the Archduce's castle at night to find out what was true to Lucius. Everyone was shocked and admired. Zio said: "I just went out for a walk, and there are Luciumarcu's people watching around the church, but I am afraid that Mr. Segolena will be discovered as soon as he goes out." ”

Yulinia had already wiped away her tears at this time, and when she heard the discussion, she thought for a moment, raised her head and said, "Archbishop Grandpa, I have a solution. Archbishop Joseph leaned down to listen to what she said in his ear, and couldn't help laughing: "That's a good idea, you deserve to be the middle school Merlin." "Merlin was a military advisor under King Arthur, and he was resourceful, and Joseph compared him to this little girl, which made Yulinia very shy. Zio deliberately made her happy and didn't think much about Swingtech, and said, "Senior sister, if you are Merlin, we should be regarded as Knights of the Round Table." Yulinia glared at him and said, "How do you know that you are a knight, maybe you are a servant, maybe you are just a baker of King Arthur!" ”

Listening to their junior sister's bickering, Segolena smiled slightly, and chanted loudly: "The number of fate is like the bright moon, the balance is difficult, the trace is so slim, my heart is long." This is a famous line from the lyric poetry collection "Carmina Braca", which Segolena recited many times at the bottom of the valley, when he heard the word fate, and naturally chanted it. When Yulinia heard this poem, her brow furrowed slightly, as if she had touched something.

Joseph urged, "It's not too early, stop arguing, get down to business!" So Yulinia dragged Segolena to the side behind the curtain, and asked for a basin of hot water to go in, and she didn't know what to do. After a while, the two men walked out, and the mouths of the people in the main hall were wide open, and Segolena's blonde hair was straightened and broken by Yulinia, and combed cleanly, hanging behind her, as soft as a cloth spun of gold thread. Yulinia put the Sventovet unpleated tight skirt that she had replaced on him, and she became a handsome girl. Not to mention others, even Archbishop Joseph sighed: "This kid is more handsome than Yulinia." ”

But he said that Luciumarcu had sent some spies at the gate of the Cathedral of Saint-Cyril and told them to return as soon as they saw Segolena go out. They cowered under the pillars of the bakery opposite, and did not dare to leave the church door for a moment. One of the spies suddenly said, "The church of St. Cyril is full of Sventovites, why did the deacon tell us to keep an eye on them?" The other person removed his arm and said with a look of disdain: "What does this make sense, the deacon wants to negotiate peace with the Ottoman Turks, and thinks they are in the way, isn't this simple." At first the man sighed and said, "I know that the Sventovites are loyal." It's just that if there is a war, we have to go to the battlefield, and it is not a place to mess around. I heard that the Turks are good at demon law, we are a small country in Moldova, where can we live. One person said: "If we follow the deacon's will, we will all become slaves of the Turks, and we will not be able to turn over for generations." Rather than this, it is better to die in battle. Another person intercepted and said: "Hey, why bother to say more, the horizontal and vertical are the business of their nobles, we poor men just do our duty, why bother to seek for meat eaters." ”

While he was talking, one of them hurriedly said: "Don't say it, don't say it, someone has come out!" The spies immediately closed their mouths and squinted their eyes to look over there. I saw two female disciples of the Sventovet sect walking out of the church side by side, their hair was black and yellow, they were talking and laughing, their steps were light, and there was no one behind them. The spies looked at each other, and one of them said, "Do you want to report to the deacon?" The colleague patted him on the head and reprimanded him in a low voice: "We are just ordered to keep an eye on the tip of the impostor, and the female apprentice of the other family goes home by herself, so why bother the deacon." It's already the middle of the night now, and to disturb his old man with this little thing is another whip!"

Yulinia and Segolena tricked the sentry and walked out of the outer courtyard of the church. Fearing a tailgating, they made a few more turns on the main road until they were sure it was safe, and then they dodged into an alley. Under a low wall, Segolena stripped off his tight skirt and changed into the silk tights that Joseph had prepared for him. Yulinia pulled out a sketch of the castle from her bosom, which Zio had drawn with charcoal behind a page of scripture, a little sketchy, but full of points, and very useful for infiltrators. When Yulinia handed the picture over, she accidentally glanced at the bandage on his hand, and whispered, "Your hands are injured, but don't be strong." If there is a danger, just blow the green whistle, and one of our disciples will rush in to meet you. Segolena smiled, "As long as you come to answer, it will be like an army of millions." Yulinia took a sip and said angrily: "When is it, still playing tricks here!"

Seeing that her eyebrows were light and her cheeks were slightly bulging, she was really indescribably beautiful, so she couldn't help laughing, turned over the earthen wall, and disappeared into the night in a flash. Yulinia looked at the deep twilight for a long time before returning to the church without mentioning it.

However, it was said that Segolena followed the instructions on the map and ran towards the castle at night. He walked on the eaves of the roof and jumped through the high and low roofs of Suceava, as if he were walking on the ground. In a few moments, he had reached the base of the castle parapet. The wall is made of pure green linen stones, and the gaps are filled with straw pebbles, which are covered with skin and pits. Segolena secretly took a breath of truth and picked up the proverbs. He threw up his legs, vomited slightly, climbed the wall three feet at the time, clasped the convex stone slope with both hands, and did not stop under his feet, his lungs were stretched, and he jumped and climbed according to the rhythm of vomiting, and easily climbed the city. The medicine given by Joseph really worked, and he no longer felt pain when he climbed the wall with his hands.

It happened that a soldier patrolled by with a halberd in his hand, and he suddenly saw a black shadow jumping in from outside the city, and sat on the ground with an "oops" in fright. Seeing that the situation was not good, Segolena suddenly made a move, and hit the double ** star life point on the back of his neck with a hand knife, and the soldier Ding fell to the ground and fell unconscious.

He dragged the soldier to a no-man's corner, stripped off his clothes and put them over his silk garment, tied the poor creature with his hands, and put a cloth in his mouth, and then left. The last time he entered the castle, Luciumarcus and Mallord led the way, but this time he became a broken pawn, so he had to figure it out on his own. Segolena followed the map, bypassed the clear road of the main hall, and took the side door used by the servants. By this time, most of the people in the castle had fallen asleep, and there were occasional night watchmen, and there was no doubt about Segolena's clothes.

Zio said that the Grand Duke had a total of three bedrooms in the castle, and that he always slept casually, and there was no pattern to follow. Segolena walked up a spiral staircase, at the end of which one of the Grand Duke's bedrooms was located. He saw the candlelight flickering under the crack of the door, and there was a hidden voice inside, so he quickly slowed down, adjusted his breathing, and quietly leaned over to look at the keyhole.

The atmosphere in the room is charming, warm and smoky, a man and a woman lie on a pine bed, a brocade blanket covers the two of them, and they are neck to neck. Segolena looked at it and saw that it was two old people: the man was Mallord, and the woman was Maggie Salorva, who almost slept with him.

Salohua leaned against Mallord's chest, his eyes were like silk, and his voice was lazy: "You have no conscience, aren't you afraid that the Grand Duke will suddenly turn back?" He was generous and willing to take his concubine to the guests. Saleuver giggled and scratched his finger at his chest: "So, you have to thank the blonde boy for this night of spring supper that you got out of thin air." ”

Both of them spoke French, presumably for fear of being inadvertently heard by the servants, but unexpectedly there was a great French expert outside the door. Salohua spoke fluently, but Mallord stumbled and was very jerky. Only then did Segolena know that this woman was actually the concubine of the Grand Duke of Moldova, and now it seems that she still has a leg with Mallord. I really don't know if this is the case with the Moldovan people, or if the Duke's family is unlucky. He was about to turn around and leave, but suddenly he heard the two of them mention him, so he continued to listen.

When Mallord heard Salor's words, he frowned and said, "That blonde boy is so weird, he is young, and he can compete with Archbishop Joseph. Salohua said: "Could it be that you Sventovet sent foreign aid?" Malaud categorically denied: "The Sventovet faction has a few catties and a few taels, but I'm afraid that those disciples are not as many as I know, and I have never heard of making such friends." Saleva said: "This blonde boy appeared out of thin air, and his origin and purpose are unknown. If I hadn't found out in time, it would have almost ruined our big business. "That's what makes it hard to understand," said Mallord. If this person is going to pretend to be a messenger, how can he show such obvious flaws as the color of his hair and be lightly recognized by you? Could it be that he was also dizzy by your beauty for a while?" Salohua smiled: "You push yourself and others, and you are fascinated and think that men in the world are like this, right?" Mallord leaned down to kiss her on the mouth: "At present, what man would not be tempted?" Salohua kissed him, pushed away and said: "Let's talk about business first, what are you going to do with him?" With the strength of the old man Luxiu Marcus, I am afraid that he will not be able to hold him, not to mention that Bishop Joseph is also protecting him now. Salohua pondered for a moment and said, "This person is a hidden danger after all, and there must be no mistake in our affairs." Why don't I report to the Maharaja and see what he thinks?" When Mallord heard the name of "Maharaja", his face was a little unnatural, and he said, "The Maharaja is willing to make a move, that is the best." The tone is insincere. Salohua put his arms around his neck, pursed his lips and exhaled: "This idiot, you and I are both servants of the Maharaja, it is natural to serve him, what are you doing with this dry vinegar?" Mallord sneered, and changed the subject: "On the Duke's side, what can you find out?" Salohua shook his head slightly and said: "This old man really doesn't know whether he is really confused or how, no matter how I serve him to be happy, he never reveals the slightest information, and it is not easy to force each other, so as not to make the deacon suspicious." Mallord said, "Luciumarcus is a very shrewd man, you have to be careful." The Ottoman Turks were approaching and had to find out before they did. ”

Segolena was shocked that the Turkish army had actually marched towards Suceava, which was really bad news. Over there, Saleva sighed: "I have to meet more tomorrow." You can watch out for that blonde boy. Mallord said, "Obey Miss's orders." The candle was blown out, and there was a sound of pillows.

Segolena quietly left the door, it turned out that he was only talking about war and peace, and it seemed that there was something hidden in it, as if there was a big conspiracy in it. He was originally a very smart man, although he was not deeply involved in the world, he was able to get a first glimpse of these scheming. Segolena took out the map and looked at it, then went to the second bedroom of the Grand Duke. Located at the top of a tower in the right wing of the castle, this room is located on a very high level, making it a great place to see the scenery. Before he could step up the stairs, he heard a thunderous snoring in the door, and the Grand Duke was clearly asleep. Segolena looked around at the silence of the people and stepped forward to push the wooden door. The door was made of oak and was extremely heavy, and he didn't move at all.

If it is forced, this wooden door will not be able to withstand the power of Segolena's palm, and I am afraid that half of the castle will hear the sound. He was in a dilemma, when suddenly a sound of footsteps came from afar. The tower and the main body of the castle are connected by a straight corridor that descends diagonally, and there is no other fork in the road. In a hurry, Segolena jumped deep into the corridor, his limbs propped up on the arches on both sides, his whole body pressed against the top, holding his breath.

The person who came was actually Luciu Maku. He put on his pajamas, held a candlestick in his hand, and walked straight to the door of the grand duke's bedroom, unaware that there was someone above his head. Lu Xiumaku knocked lightly on the wooden door, and when he saw that the snoring was the same as before, no one answered for a long time, he sighed secretly, and turned to leave.

When he was far away, Segolena jumped from the top of the porch, gasping for breath. The people in this castle seem to have something on their minds, but the foolish Grand Duke is sleeping. He tiptoed away from the covered bridge, pondering what to do next, when suddenly there was a chill behind him, and he looked back in a panic, only to see Luciusmaku standing behind him, looking at him coldly.

The castle was dim, the candlelight was like beans, and Luciumaku could only see the color of the guards' uniforms, and asked, "Where are you the guard, and how did you come here?" He naturally used Moldovan, and Segolena did not understand it at all, so he had to nod his head again and again, and use some vague "um" and "ah" to confuse him. This morning, Luciumaku flattered him for a long time, and now that he is like this, it can be regarded as a report and a report.

Luciumaku was not suspicious, most of these guards were recruited by peasants near Suceava, and they were dumbfounded and had extremely strong accents. Seeing that the guard was talking vaguely, he didn't bother to guess, so he only said, "That's right, you come with me." He was extremely respectful to his superiors, but he had a grim look of unsmiling at his subordinates. Segolena guessed what he meant, and followed behind with his hands up, pretending to wince, thinking that it would be a big deal to stun the deacon.

The two men went one after the other to a room on the ground floor of the castle. The room was very spacious, with a large wooden table and a chair in the center, on which were placed several rolls of paper, ink, quills, and other objects, and on either side were large bookshelves with roofs and ground, on which were huge volumes.

Luciusmaku sat back at the table, put the candlestick on the slab, picked it off with a bamboo stick, picked up a scroll of paperwork and read it for a long time, and then slowly put it down. Segolena thought to himself that the old man, though cunning, was a diligent man. Luciusmaku looked at it for a while, picked up a sharpening knife, sharpened the goose feathers, roasted them on the candle flame, and dipped them in ink and wrote a piece of paper. Seeing that the text was full of Slavic letters and did not know a single word, Segolena simply looked around, and saw a coat of arms on a red background hanging on the wall, on which were drawn three black swallows, cut in a diagonal line—the logo of Luciu's house.

When Lushumaku had finished writing, he rolled up the paper, sealed it with a seal, and handed it to Segolena to give a series of orders in Moldova. Segolena listened to the shortness of his voice, and guessed that he had asked him to send the letter immediately without delay, and was at a loss as to where it would go. He vaguely agreed, took the paperwork and put it in his arms.

With this guard suit and Luciu's orders, he made his way through the castle unimpeded, swaggering out of the gates. At this time, the dawn was faintly shining in the east, many Suceava citizens got up, and the shops on the street were also unloaded and opened. Yulinia and Zio were standing near the gate of the castle early in the morning, and when they saw Segolena coming out in a guard's suit, they were overjoyed and went together to greet them. Zio was about to ask, but Segolena waved his hand and said, "Go back to the church." ”

When the three returned to the church, Archbishop Joseph had been waiting for a long time. As soon as Segolena gave a glimpse of his experience, Bishop Joseph's face became more and more grim, and he muttered, "It seems that this 'Maharaja' is planning some kind of conspiracy against Alexandru. "The crowd of Sventovet was so excited that they said that they would enter the castle and drag the adulterers out and stone them to death. Bishop Joseph stopped the crowd and said, "The Ottoman army is right in front of you, and this is the big thing! There are only three thousand capable warriors in the city of Suceava, and it is too late to recruit them from all over the country. The danger of breaking the city is imminent. ”

Segolena took out the scroll from his bosom and said, "This is the letter that Lushumaku asked me to send, but unfortunately I don't know Moldovan, so I don't know where to send it." Joseph did not wait to untie the thread of the paperwork, but simply tore the rope and read the scroll. There is no title in this letter, and there is no payment, only a few sentences are written: "Seeing that the matter is urgent today, this is beyond the power of the servant, and I hope that the king will leave quickly, fortunately." The letter seemed to be a reminder to leave Suceava as soon as possible.

Segolena listened to the translation and said suspiciously: "Or Luciu's spy in the city, lest the conspiracy be revealed, so let him withdraw quickly." Archbishop Joseph shook his head and put the letter on the rampage: "This deacon is usually above the top, and ordinary nobles don't pay attention to it. He actually called himself a 'servant' in the letter, and the person who received the letter must have been a person of great status. He patted his head and asked, "Do you remember the pronunciation of what Lucimarku told you?" Segolena had a good memory, and he recounted it for a moment, and reluctantly repeated it.

Archbishop Joseph closed his eyes and pondered for a long time before he said slowly: "There is still some ambiguity in your pronunciation, but I can hear some clues. As soon as he finished speaking, a disciple sent by Sventovet, who had been on duty to guard the south gate of Suceava, rushed into the church in a hurry, and reported that he had just seen Luciumaku wearing a cloak and hurrying out of the south gate alone. Zio raised his eyebrows and said loudly: "The south is close to the Black Sea, and it is a necessary place for *** people to attack Moldova. He must have gone to join the Ottoman army!" was silent Archbishop Joseph, apparently agreeing. Luciumaku served as a deacon for several decades, and knew the reality of Suceava, and if he was the leader of the Ottoman army, it would be very harmful.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Segolena clapped his hands and laughed: "I have a plan, maybe I can solve the misfortune of Suchava." The people were convinced of him, and they all looked at him together. Segolena said, "Give me a fast horse, and I will follow the deacon to the camp of the Ottoman army, and kill the general who led the army and Luciumaku, and it will be done." His tone was understated, as if he were talking about eating, walking, and sleeping. Segolena has a simple personality, thinks in everything the most direct way, and does not find it difficult to kill the infidels.

Archbishop Joseph was stunned and said: "The Ottoman military camp is not the castle of Suceava, and the security must be tight, no different from the Longtan Tiger's Den, no matter how high your kung fu is, how can you kill that general?" Segolena smiled slightly: "After the teacher taught me to go out of the valley, I must protect the Holy Order, and not let the heresy touch the land of God in the slightest." Now is the opportunity, and how can I back down. I will do the right thing for heaven, and God will surely protect me. His words made the blood of the Sventovites faction boil, and they all drew their swords and shouted: "The young man is right!

Archbishop Joseph couldn't help but be moved when he saw the excitement of the crowd. He was a bold and generous man, and he clenched his fists and sleeves and said loudly: "Okay, good God! Why don't I also learn from the crusaders and kill a few Turkish Tartars, it is better to stay moldy in this city!" Yulinia quietly tugged at his sleeve and whispered, "Archbishop Grandpa, how can you go and join in the fun." Joseph knew that he was just talking, and that he was the head of the Moldovan bishop, and how could he put a cadre at risk for himself. Yulinia reminded him of this, and he had to release his fist in a huff.

Zio stood up at this time and said loudly: "Young man Segolena is not familiar with the geography near Suceava, I can accompany him as a guide." Yulinia said, "Since you are going, senior brother, I will also follow." "The rest of the disciples also shouted for me. Qi Ao looked around, raised his long sword, and said solemnly: "Assassinating the main general is unusual. If you don't learn well, it will only drag down the young man of Segolena. Whoever thinks of himself as superior to the sword in my hand, I will give it to you. ”

As a result of this, the disciples of the Sventovet faction were silent. The masters of the Sventovites' generation, with the exception of Malrod and the deceased Swift, must be the leader of the faction. Yulinia said angrily: "Senior brother, you are so unfair!" Qi Ao smiled: "Those of my generation who practice martial arts, in terms of swords, what's wrong? Yulinia couldn't tell him, and couldn't help choking up: "What if...... If you have something wrong like the second senior brother, what should we do with the Sventovites?" Qi Ao stretched out his hand and touched the little sister's long hair, and said with relief: "There are still you and your junior brothers, not to mention the help of Bishop Joseph, I am very relieved." Joseph replied, "I will do a thorough investigation of the letter, and Mallord and the woman will send someone to keep an eye on you, so you need not have to worry about it." ”

Segolena said suddenly, "If you delay for a while, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up with Luciumarcus." Zio said "um", turned his head and commanded, "Go and prepare two of the best horses, and three days' dry rations." The two disciples answered and left together. He turned to Bishop Joseph and said, "Grandpa Bishop, the city of Suceava and Yulinia are entrusted to you. Joseph said, "Go with confidence, and when you return, these two things will be returned to you as they are." Zio laughed. The archbishop said to Segolena: "Boy, don't blame this seat for saying frustrating words, if you have any three long and two short, the three things of the monk will fall on this seat, you can be relieved!" Segolena listened, his heart was warm, and he knelt down to worship, but he was helped up by the archbishop, and said slowly: "You are willing to assassinate the great enemy for Moldova, what is the reward for this little thing!" Yulinia watched from the sidelines, wanted to speak but stopped, and finally bit her lip and said nothing.

Immediately, Archbishop Joseph put on his robes and prayed for Segolena and Zio before the cross, and everyone fell to their knees, all of them closing their eyes in prayer. Yulinia clasped her hands together, pressed them to her forehead, and kept chanting silently, not knowing what she had said. After a while, the sound of horses' hooves was heard outside the church, and two horses had been led, each with a cloth bag on the saddle, which contained food and water.

Segolena and Zio mounted their horses, each made a cross on their chests, and rode away, disappearing at the end of the street in a few moments. Yulinia looked in the direction they had left, her eyes sparkling as if she were speechless. Archbishop Joseph patted her on the shoulder and said in a deep voice: "Let them go, we still have a lot of work to do." ”

There are two flowers, one on each branch. But it was said that Segolena and Zio rode fast horses and galloped all the way in the direction of the Black Sea. Both of these horses are of the Tatar breed, born with great endurance and four hooves like thunder and fire. The two of them did not sleep until they rushed for two days in a row, but there was still no trace of Luciumarku ahead, which shows how anxious the deacon was. Zio said that if it goes on like this, he is afraid that he may not be able to catch up with the exhaustion of the people and horses, so he might as well take a gamble. Segolena asked how to make a bet, Ziodaomurad II may not have traveled thousands of miles from Asia Minor through the Black Sea, but more likely to mobilize the Ottoman army stationed in Wallachia nearby. If he had calculated correctly, the army should have begun its invasion from the western side of the Carpathian Mountains, marched north along the Serlet, and pounced on Suceava, where the Skeya Pass near the city of Romans was the place to go. There is a small road leading to Shkaea, which is a third of the way to Shkaea. However, if he miscalculated, and the Ottoman army still killed the Moldovan port of Kilia from the Black Sea, they would not be able to catch up. Segolena said: "It's too late to catch up left and right, you might as well gamble!"

So the two turned their horses' heads and followed the path that Zio had spoken. The trail was carved out by smugglers from the Black Sea, alum and spices to the interior, and was so narrow and sometimes muddy that it was even necessary to dismount.

By the third day, both of them were exhausted, and they still did not see a single soldier of the Turkish army. Towards evening, the sun was setting and the sky was darkening. Qi Ao grabbed the reins and said dejectedly: "Young man, why don't we rest for the time being." After three days of driving, even if the people could bear it, the horses could not bear it. If we really miss the army, we will have to have the strength to rush back to Suceava. Disillusioned, Segolena dismounted, and let them gnaw on the turf. Zio lit a fire, took out bread and jerky, and ate it from the brook that was drawn nearby. Segolena couldn't help but feel a little bored with everything in his heart, and after a few bites, he walked on a high slope and looked around. When he was in the valley, he liked to climb the high rock and look into the distance. The valley is narrow, and the distance of a hundred and ten steps is only a hundred and ten steps on weekdays, and only by climbing higher, the field of vision will be broadened, which is the greatest enjoyment he regards.

Suddenly, his eyes moved, and he looked intently at a large chasm in the distance to the east. The chasm was deep and long, like an extremely ugly scar on the plain, about a dozen fats away from them. With his extraordinary eyesight, Segolena could see what seemed to be a sparkling fire on both sides of the ravine, which would have been difficult to detect if it had not been for the darkness of the night. He looked closely, and saw that the fire was so wide that if it weren't for the Ottoman army, who could have set up a camp of this magnitude in the wilderness.

He hurriedly summoned Zio, and both of them were overjoyed, and immediately jumped on their horses and headed for that side, regardless of rest. Lest the scouts find them halfway through, they spread their horses, slumped down, and approached slowly through the grass. This camp is indeed the Ottoman Turkish legion, a black silk embroidered with three stars and curved cloud ornamentation is erected high in the middle, the camp tent is in order, not chaotic at all, all sides are surrounded by wooden fences, spear flags are continuous, shouts one after another, the Ottoman army is strictly organized, it can be seen. Zio counted carefully, and there were ten Arebe flags in the camp, and I am afraid that the number was more than 10,000.

The two looked around and found that the defense was tight and there were no flaws to follow. Segolena pondered for a moment and said in a low voice: "I have a solution, that is, it is more risky, but I am afraid that there will be no return." Zio smiled: "It's already here, how can you retreat?" Segolena said, "Okay, we're ...... like this"

In the middle of the moon, the stars were shining, and most of the Turkish soldiers had already eaten their dinner. Alcohol was strictly forbidden in the Ottoman army, but nothing else, and the people of the Middle East were born to sing and dance, and many people began to sing their hometown tunes around the fire, and some danced with them, causing bursts of shouting and laughter. There was a small gate on the side of the Ottoman camp, which was a passage for the gang leader to draw water and transport firewood, and was guarded by several sergeants. They heard the movement in the camp and were about to move, but because of the severity of military law, they had to reluctantly cheer up and stay at their posts.

One of the sergeants suddenly heard the sound of hooves in the darkness of the night in the distance, he took his long knife, called his two companions, and shouted, "Who is coming!" After a while, the sound of hooves approached, and it turned out to be a man and a woman. The man led the horse, and the woman sat on the horse's back, her head bowed, and she could not see her face clearly, except for the blonde hair on her head, which hung down to her shoulders. There is also a long package on the horse's back, which is bulging inside.

The sergeant shouted, "Who are you!!" The young man laughed in Greek, "Lords, I am a subordinate of the local lord Vukievich. When Lord Vokievich heard that the army was coming, he specially ordered me to send a beautiful one to sleep with the general. "It was a custom in Eastern Europe for the lord to send a female pillow to welcome distinguished guests, and this army was stationed in Wallachia for a while, and several local nobles also sent maids to the army, and the Turkish soldiers had long been accustomed to it. The sergeant raised the torch to shine on the woman, who seemed a little shy, turned her face away, and her blonde hair whirled. At such a glance, he already showed a little beauty, where was the sergeant still suspicious, and laughed: "General Pasha is really a blessing, there are women sleeping with him in this deserted outskirts. A partner next to him said: "Just pity me for waiting for the hardship, I have to listen, but it's useless." The sergeant said disdainfully: "What are you anxious about, when the city of Suchava is conquered, there will be countless women to use, and when the time comes, I am afraid that you will die and you will not be able to keep busy." ”

The two men spoke rudely, and the man clenched his fists and teeth clenched. The sergeant ordered the wooden door to be removed, and ordered: "Come in, and follow me to the general." This place is heavily guarded, but you are not allowed to walk around, and I will not be able to save you if you take a wrong step. The man said yes. The sergeant looked at the package on the horse's back, frowned, and said, "What is it there?" The man said, "It's a gift from Master Vokeevich to General Pasha." He knew the general's name just now, but at this time he pretended to hear his name. The sergeant said unhappily: "You don't know anything, you only know that you are too stingy to honor the general." The man said: "The lord is afraid that the general will be in a hurry, so he sent me to come for a while, and there are still a few carts of wine and meat later, especially to treat the military master." When the sergeant heard this, his expression relaxed.

They entered the camp and fortified the important place, with three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, and from time to time there were patrol horses passing by. The sergeant did not dare to say anything more, and led the two of them around through a white cloth tent to a very large tent. This tent is round and upward, like the top of a mosque, there are sixty or seventy steps in a square circle, the outer trim is trimmed, the top of the tent is a gilded tip, very majestic, there are many flags and guards around, it is the sleeping tent of the general Pasha.

The sergeant asked them to wait at the door, and he stepped forward to say a few words to the guard, and then turned around and said, "It's unfortunate that you are here, my general is receiving guests." Go and wait by the tent, and when the general finishes speaking, he will summon you over. Then the man and the woman followed the sergeant to the side of the tent and set up. The sergeant did not dare to leave for a long time because he still had the duty of guarding the door, so he let one of the guards keep an eye on them from a distance, and went back himself. Zio glanced at the careless guard, and said with a secret smile: "I didn't expect Yulinia to come up with two tricks, so the old trick was repeated, and it worked wonders again." Segolena said: "I pretended to be a woman twice in three days, which is also rare in my life. ”

The circumference of the tent was too large for the base to be sealed, so the craftsmen tied a wooden wedge every few feet and nailed the base cloth into the soil. The night was windy, and the tent was easy to eat and windy, and a small slit was opened between the two wedges from time to time, and the people in the tent could hear the language clearly. The two of them listened intently, and heard a deep male voice full of energy in the tent say: "The envoy has come to this wilderness to meet him for three days, which really touches the general. His Majesty the Sultan would have been glad if he had known about it. ”

The other male voice looked much older and tired: "Thanks to General Pasha's praise, the little old man heard that the heavenly army was coming, so he traveled under the stars, lest he miss the general." Fortunately, now it has finally arrived. "It was Luciumaku who had just arrived.

General Pasha said, "Allah naturally guides the lost lamb." It's just that the deacon, you are not sitting in the city, what are you doing here?" Lushumaku said: "Just because there is a small disturbance in the city of Suchava, the little old man is afraid that the rumors will hurt the harmony of the two families, so he has come to ask the general for his guilt and extend greetings on behalf of the Grand Duke." The two people who eavesdropped next to them thought in their hearts that this spy had really been sold by the Grand Duke.

General Pasha sneered, "If you don't mention it, I'll almost forget." What about the envoys who went to Suceava the day before yesterday with the Sultan's own edict, and where are they now?" Lushumaku hesitated, "This matter...... This matter is not yet clear, and we have been waiting for a long time, but there is no trace of the envoy. There was a sudden "bang" in the tent, as if someone had slapped the armrest of the seat, and heard General Pasha shout: "You jackal-like liar, you still want to be fooled." As everyone knows, the heavens have eyes, and I received a report that the three envoys died cleanly on the road!" Lu Xiumaku's voice trembled, and he hurriedly said: "It may be the bandit rogue who did it, wait for me to go back and report to the Grand Duke, send an army to exterminate it, and report the ...... for the envoy of your country" Before he finished speaking, General Pasha intercepted and said: "Those three envoys are all hard hands selected by our army, how can ordinary bandits deal with them." I have heard that there are a group of swordsmen in Moldova, who call themselves Sventovets, all of them are skilled fighters, and they are loyal and patriotic, yes or no?" he pinched the fibrous roots and stared at the deacon with deep meaning, and Luciumaku did not know how to answer for a while, and said in fear: "General Yingming, when I return to Suceava, I will definitely arrest all these people and torture them, find out the real culprits, and give an explanation to the general and His Majesty the Sultan." ”

General Pasha said lightly: "I don't bother you anymore." The murder of the Ottoman envoy was naturally solved by us Osman himself. When the army entered the city three days later, wouldn't it be easier to search the whole city and go from house to house?" Lushumaku hurriedly said: "His Majesty the Sultan has the intention of harmony, and the Grand Duke of my family also has the intention of repair, why should the general be so anxious?" General Pasha laughed, and suddenly the laughter stopped, and the voice was like thunder: "If you have not seen Your Majesty's handwritten letters, how can you know that Your Majesty has the intention of harmony!!" Luxiumaku was choked all of a sudden, he wanted to lie and deceive, but who knew that the more round it became, the more chaotic it became, and the general caught the flaw at once, and sweated like rain.

General Pasha said coldly: "Your Majesty's handwritten letter is the messenger's handwriting, since you have seen the letter, do you think you have seen the messenger?" Lu Xiumaku said: "No, no, ah, no, I have indeed seen it, but ......" He was anxious and incoherent. General Pasha said: "All my Ottoman envoys are personally sealed by His Majesty the Sultan in front of the jade throne, and seeing the envoy is like seeing Your Majesty." You Moldova dare to murder the messenger, which is tantamount to plotting to assassinate His Majesty the Sultan. According to my Uthman law, all the men of Suceava were to be beheaded, and the women and children were to have their right ears cut off and sold into slavery. Luciusmaku panicked: "This... How can this be done?" General Pasha's tone suddenly eased: "I have made up my mind on this matter, and I will not change it. But you have always done your best to show favor to our army, and His Majesty the Sultan is not ungrateful. This time against Suchava, if you are willing to do the internal response, the whole clan will be forgiven. If His Majesty the Sultan is pleased, he will even make you lord of Suceava. ”

The tent suddenly became quiet, and Lu Xiumaku was sweating, even the two people who were eavesdropping outside were also shocked. They did not expect that the Ottoman Turks would be so cruel that they would kill all the men of Suceava. Segolena thought to himself that I had killed all three messengers, and I had caused such a big mess in Moldova, and I would kill the general even if I fought for my life later, which would be considered a little compensation for the crime. Yulinia's smile flashed in his mind, and he was even more determined.

After being silent for a long time, Lucimaku finally spoke, his voice was still desolate, but he lost the confusion and timidity just now: "The little old man has served the Grand Duke of Moldova since he was a child, and now it has been nearly fifty years. The little old man always thought that reconciliation with the Ottoman Turks was the way for the survival of our country; those young people only knew how to fight and kill, but they did not know how to block the car with their mantis arms, so it was better to follow the times and become vassals as soon as possible, so as to ensure the safety of the army and the people of a country. It is because the little old man is willing to be infamous as a thief, and he does not hesitate to grovel, but also to coax your country to be happy and avoid using swords. General Pasha said: "This is very good, in the future, you can devote yourself to serving His Majesty the Sultan, and there will be no more such grievances." Luciumaku smiled and said: "Although the little old man is cowardly, he is a citizen of Moldova after all, born and raised in Si. It's one thing for Nagon to be a vassal, but it's another thing for the general to slaughter Suceava. His voice suddenly turned high: "If the general doesn't take back his order, he has to kill Xiao Lao first!"

This scream was beyond everyone's expectations. General Pasha was stunned, and even Segolena and Zio were shocked, and they could hardly believe that the flattering and cunning Luciumarcus stood so firm at the festival, which was really surprising.

There was a sound of drawing a knife in the tent, and then there was a sound of footsteps approaching. General Pasha said: "In this case, I have fulfilled the deacon's patriotic heart." Lu Xiumaku said: "I really can't bear to see the slaughter of the old city, the general and others, please rush the corpse to the shore of the Black Sea, so as not to see a disaster and urge my liver and intestines." The general of the Pasha praised: "What a loyal servant, as you say." "If you start with it, you have to cut it.
