Chapter 20: The Consuls

The guards of the city of Adora are not under the command of Harry, and in simple terms, they are the difference between police and soldiers.

As the administrator of the city of Ador, the consul had great command over these guards, especially in the absence of Count Prohey.

However, the guards and the soldiers naturally belong to two systems, and as soon as they saw the consul coming with the guards, Harry's soldiers immediately blocked them out and refused to allow them to approach.

Kaneshiro snapped at Ella, who immediately beckoned the soldiers to let them go.

The consul violently pushed away the soldiers, led the people to the door of the Earl's mansion, pointed at Jin Cheng and said: "You have maliciously attacked Lord Aldrich, violating the laws of Adordo City, I must arrest you!" ”

"Lord Aldrich?" Jin Cheng pretended to be surprised, "Is that the uncle of the respected Count Prohey, Lord Aldrich?" ”

"That's right!" Archon Road.

"I'm sorry, I thought it was just a rude subordinate, but I didn't expect it to be your uncle! Dear Count Prohai, can you forgive me for my recklessness? Jin Cheng made a small move, turned his head to Ella and said.

"Huh?" Ella was stunned for a moment, but immediately reacted and stumbled, "No...... It's okay, Uncle Aldrich almost ran into the Gurlan Mystic, this ...... This will affect our friendship with the Blue Tower, you ...... You're doing a great job! ”

"What?" The archon, who realized that he had been deceived, immediately shouted, "Miss Ella has not inherited the title yet!" ”

"Oh, that's right." Jin Cheng nodded, and said, "But as the sister of the previous earl, I think the current Miss Ella is qualified to temporarily enforce the rights of the earl, right?" ”

"As the Administrator of Ador, and also the Archon of the Promontory, Miss Ella invited you to come and discuss the heir to the Earl's title, why haven't you come?"

"I ...... I have a lot of official duties and don't have time! The consul shouted, "Don't change the subject, you criminal, I'm going to arrest you now!" ”

"If I break the laws of the city of Ador, of course I will go to prison, but how does the Archon know that I have attacked Lord Aldrich? Is it just the one-sided words of a guard? Jin Cheng said with a smile.

"You...... Do you want to quibble! Said the archon.

"No, no, no." Kaneshiro smiled and stepped out of the way, "I'm asking the Archon-sama to come to the scene of the crime to see what the situation is all about. ”

"The others don't have to come in, do they? Not everyone is eligible to enter the Earl's Court. ”

The guards looked at each other, they were only city guards, and their law enforcement power had never entered the Earl's mansion. What are you kidding, Lord Earl is the master of the whole Prosea, and if something happens to his family, it will be their turn to take care of them.

The Archon hesitated, and when he was at a loss, Aldrich's bodyguard shouted, "Lord Archon, I can testify that I saw him attack Lord Aldrich!" ”

"Who is this man? Miss Ella, do you know each other? Kaneshiro pointed to the guard.

"I don't know." Ella chuckled.

"Soldiers, get rid of the inconsequential. The security in the city of Adora is getting worse and worse, and any rogue ruffian can peek into the Count's mansion. Jin Cheng beckoned, "The city guards are waiting here, Lord Archon, please." ”

Harry's soldiers obeyed Ella's command and immediately dragged Aldrich's guards out, and one of the soldiers thought he was still screaming, and punched him out of his mouth.

The consul was in a dilemma, and finally gritted his teeth and entered the count's mansion.

The group entered the hall and came to the living room, and Jin Cheng suddenly motioned for the archon to stand under the broken door frame, and then walked to his original position and said, "Lord Archon, Aldrich was standing in your current position at that time, and Miss Ella and I were entertaining the Gullan Mystic. ”

"He ran in frizzy, and I was worried that the Gurlan Mystic would be angry, so I ......"

"Do you want me to demonstrate it?" Jin Cheng summoned his own magic tome to open it, and a wave of arcane magic energy surged on the magic tome.

"No, no, no!" The Archon was sweating profusely and hurriedly moved out of his seat, not wanting to try the mystic's spells.

"This arcane mage, and Miss Ella, since it was Lord Aldridge's rudeness that ...... first," the archon wiped the sweat from his face, "then...... Then I'll go back and study with Judge Law how to decide on this matter. ”

"Huh." Ella was amused by the archon's expression and covered her mouth and chuckled.

"No hurry, no hurry." Jin Cheng walked over and pulled the consul into his seat, and said with a smile, "Let this matter go first, let's talk about the title." ”

"The consul is an important figure in the Promontory coast, and I think the choice of the heir to the title still needs the consul to provide a little reference."

"This ...... This is the Count's family business, I ......," said the consul, in a cold sweat, and of course he wanted to say that Aldrich should inherit the title, but such a thing could never have been said.

"You're too modest, Lord Archon." Kaneshiro patted the consul on the shoulder, "How long have you been working for Count Prohey?" ”

"It's been more than twenty years." The archon swallowed, he felt that the arcane mage in front of him was terrifying, and he would always play tricks on him in inexplicable places.

"Oh, it's been more than twenty years, so you must be familiar with Commander Harry, right?" Kaneshiro asked.

"I didn't ...... That's right, I've known Commander Harry for a long time, and we're both the Earl's most loyal retainers. The Archon nodded.

"I must believe in the Archon's loyalty, but is that Harry in charge......" Kaneshiro shook his head, pretending to be angry, "he still refuses to be loyal to Miss Ella!" ”

"This selfish guy doesn't even get involved in the succession of the title."

"What a cunning fellow!" Jin Cheng was angry for a few words, and suddenly his expression changed again, and he said with a strange smell, "Lord Archon, do you think Commander Harry is a smart man or a not smart person?" ”

"This ...... Not smart? The archon said cautiously.

"No, I think he's smart." Jin Cheng smiled and looked at Ella, "No matter who inherits the title in the end, as the commander of the earl's private army, he has been in charge of the earl's army for so many years, and the new earl will not rashly replace his position." ”

"Anyway, his rights will not be weakened, so who will inherit the title, and what difference does it make to him?"

"It's better to ignore it and get out of it."

After Kaneshiro finished speaking, he glanced at the archon, intentionally or unintentionally.

When the consul heard this, he was stunned and fell into deep thought.

Whether it is Harry or the consul, they are all old men who have been in their positions for many years, and they are in high positions in the group of Count Prohai, and they are easily unable to move.

Participating in the succession of knighthoods is undoubtedly a very risky act. You know, they don't really have much room to go up. Even if they helped someone to get a knighthood, how much benefit would they get for themselves?

After a long while, Jin Cheng clapped his hands and said, "Okay, Lord Archon is busy with affairs, since you have already investigated the scene, let's go back and discuss with Judge Law how to convict me." ”

Seeing off the ignorant archon, Ella excitedly took Jin Cheng's hand and said happily: "Jin, you are simply amazing! ”

"You have eliminated Uncle Aldrich's hidden danger so easily!"

Jin Cheng smiled bitterly in his heart, he did his best, and he didn't watch so many short TV series in his previous life in vain.

"Don't rejoice too soon, Miss Ella." Jin Cheng shook his head and said, "I'm just trying to get the Archon to a neutral position, and I don't know if it will work." ”

"If they are all willing to be neutral, then I, as the first heir, will definitely be able to inherit the title!"

"Nope." Jin Cheng suddenly said seriously, "Those who don't help us, we must make them neutral." And the originally neutral person, we must let him help us! ”

"You still have to enlist the support of Commander Harry, don't forget that Aldrich still has his own forces, and it is only one of his worst guards who goes to deliver news to the Archon, and I see that several of his guards have third-level strength!"

"Don't forget that your brother's private soldiers have only a dozen wounded left."

"If Aldridge insists on coming, without the support of Commander Harry, we will be in big trouble."

"This ......" Ella began to be overwhelmed again.

Old Lynch suddenly appeared, he first saluted respectfully outside the door, then stepped inside the door, lowered his head and said, "Miss Ella, the head of the Chamber of Commerce and Young Master Clarence have arrived at the docks." ”

"They brought back a very valuable cargo this time."

"To be on the safe side, Master Clarence hired a team of mercenaries."
