Chapter 120: Clearing the Charges
"You found the Queen's ring?"
In that same hall, King Krosso and the Queen were still on top.
King Krosso asked Tom, the guard below, suspiciously.
"Yes, Your Majesty! The Queen's ring was swallowed in the stomach by a duck, and I was lucky enough to find the duck, and at the time of slaughter, found the emerald ring of Her Royal Highness. There was irrepressible excitement in Tom's tone.
"Really? Someone couldn't have done something like feeding the ring into the duck's belly and then killing the duck to find the ring? The queen glanced at Tom with contempt, lowered her head again, looked at her hands, and said coldly.
"Nope! Your Highness! I really didn't, didn't do this kind of thing! Tom seemed to pour cold water on people, flustered, and hurriedly defended.
"It's hard to say something like that! Maybe the thief had to do it in order to survive! The handsome and handsome Richard Johnson sneered and scolded Huai.
The original joy was gone, and Tom was honestly terrified.
King Krosso sat on the first seat, his face as calm as water, and he could not see the depths.
William, who was also in this hall, saw this situation and had to stand up and say, "Your Majesty, when I was with Tom, I can prove that Tom did not do the things that Mr. Richard said. ”
William suddenly smiled slightly, "Actually, it's not me who boasts, Tom was able to find Her Royal Highness's ring from the duck's belly, or it was inspired by my mouth." ”
"Your Majesty, you don't think I stole Her Highness's ring, do you?" William joked.
King Krosso smiled and shook his head, "Mr. Zorro, you are my honored guest!" The emerald ring is precious, but it is far less than my friendship with you! How could I doubt you? ”
In fact, the real reason is that Krosso felt that William had been under his animal watch, and had no chance to steal the emerald ring at all.
William smiled politely and nodded slightly.
Richard Johnson's brow furrowed secretly.
And here, Tom waited for the conversation between the king and William to end before he dared to interject and explain to himself.
"Yes, Your Majesty, it was Lord Zorro who advised me that Her Royal Highness's ring was not necessarily stolen by a thief, but may have been eaten by a small animal, so that I was lucky enough to find this stolen duck." Tom also explained to King Krosso.
King Krosso looked at Tom, who was nervous, and then at William, who was calm, and after a deep groan, he said, "Tom, where did you say you caught this duck?" ”
Tom's body shuddered imperceptibly, and then he calmly said, "Your Majesty, it's in the little courtyard you frequent. ”
"Where is that?" Croso muttered to himself and made a decision, "Then take me to see it." ”
The king spoke, and the others naturally did not dare to have opposing opinions.
Dozens of minutes later, the group came to the small courtyard.
In the courtyard on the land beside the stream, a few ducks were gathered around, lazily basking in the sun.
Seeing so many of them, these ducks looked a little unusual, and their croaking sounds came and went.
King Krosso's gaze fell on him at once.
"Those terrible humans are here again!"
"Don't be afraid! We have so many ducks, they don't dare to come. ”
"You said the same when the human came over just now!"
"That's how poor Duck and Darth were captured by the human."
"It's none of my business that Duck was captured! It's Duck's own slack! ”
"We should have left before the humans came."
"Let's go, I'm still here to feel the warmth of the sun. As I said, Duck was caught by the human because he ate the Queen's Ring, so he ran so slowly! Let's go! Cowardly duckling! ”
"I'm not a coward! I'm a bold duck! And what about Das? ”
"Darth is out of luck! Unlucky Darth, Unlucky Darth, Quack, Unlucky Darth, Unlucky Darth, Quack......"
The chaotic duck cry in the eyes of ordinary people is a magical language that can be understood in the ears of Krosso.
After listening to the conversation of so many ducks, Krosso suddenly understood that his queen's emerald ring was really swallowed by the ducks unintentionally.
His faithful guard, Tom, was really wronged!
Krosso suddenly turned his head and said to Tom, "Tom, yes, you are innocent, you are still the faithful guard!" I'm wrong about you! ”
Tom had been waiting for this sentence for a long time, and wept with joy.
But the queen of Krosso shrank her eyes, and she whispered, as if without any prejudice, and said to the king, "Your Majesty, should we investigate again?" Words like these alone are not enough to convince everyone! ”
Tom suddenly became nervous.
"Is there any doubt in my name?" Krosso asked his queen with a majestic expression.
"Of course not!" The queen did not dare to speak.
Krosso nodded, turned his head, looked at Tom, and suddenly felt a little apologetic in his heart, feeling that he really shouldn't doubt his loyal guard like this, so Krosso changed his gentle expression and said, "Tom, my faithful guard, I have wronged you!" I'm so sorry! ”
"Your Majesty, you don't need to be like this! I can understand! Tom said hurriedly.
"No, you can't understand the discomfort of a king after doing such a thing! Tom, I'm going to make it up to you! You can make a request to me, and if I can do it, I will grant it to you! I can even give you the best position in the palace! ”
When Crosso said this, Richard Johnson's face became ugly.
No one noticed his expression except the queen.
The queen's eyes flashed with distress.
Tom, on the other hand, was in a dilemma at this time, and he couldn't make a decision for a while.
King Krosso was not in a hurry, and smiled generously, "Don't worry, Tom, you still have plenty of time to think about it. When you think about it, tell me and my promise is permanent! ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Tom immediately bowed deeply and thanked him.
Croso smiled indifferently, turned back to William, and said, "My dear friend, Zorro, you have done me a favor!" ”
"I don't dare take the credit for it, it's just a small suggestion, and it all depends on Tom's luck. It was clear that the goddess of luck liked him very much. ”
"Young lads are always liked!" Croso smiled, "But, without your advice, Tom wouldn't have been able to touch the hem of the goddess of luck, and in doing so, I would have lost a loyal guard, so I want to thank you, Zorro." ”
"You can make a request to me, Zorro, as long as I do it." Krosso made a big fuss, but in fact, it was to win over William.
The light of jealousy in the eyes of Richard Johnson in the back flashed.
I want your white snake meat!
Naturally, William didn't dare to say this in his heart, so he just said, "Your Majesty, the only thing I hope for is that justice is not late, and it is obvious that you have done this, so I have nothing to ask for!" ”
