Chapter 419: City of Chaos (2)
Early morning.
When Li Xuan woke up, the sky was already dark, and he unconsciously slept on the head of the bed for a whole night.
Looking at Lilian, who was still asleep, Li Xuan twisted her neck and arms, got up and walked out of the room.
The early morning at Maple Leaf Manor is somewhat quiet, with only some sounds coming from the direction of the kitchen.
"Good morning, sir. Fiona put on her maid's costume and pushed the small wooden cart to Li Xuan.
Li Xuan looked at her with a calm expression, and said slowly, "Are you really willing to stay in this manor and be a maid?"
Fiona smiled and dodged his question, but took out the water jug and the drinking cup, poured a glass of warm water and handed it to him: "I know that Sir has a habit of drinking a glass of water every morning when he wakes up. ”
Li Xuan looked at her, slowly stretched out his hand to take the water cup, and drank it in small sips.
Seeing Li Xuan take the water cup and drink water, the smile on Fiona's face was bright.
"Sir, Butler Boris has instructed me to tell him as soon as you wake up, he seems to have a lot to look for you. Fiona said.
Li Xuan looked at her deeply, nodded and didn't speak, and walked down the stairs.
After Li Xuan arrived in the hall, Boris walked over from the direction of the kitchen and said respectfully: "Sir, do you have anything you want to eat today?" ”
Li Xuan shook his head: "It's okay, you can do it if you look at it." Fiona said you have a lot of things to do with me?"
Boris nodded: "Sir, after you left the manor, a lot happened to Carroston. Knight Egger was taken to the Imperial City of Durogar by the people of the Knight's Court, and then the Lord of Orin and Vivien also went, and there was no news yet. Some time ago it was rumored that Knight Egger was hanged......"
Li Xuan was slightly stunned: "You said that Knight Egger was hanged?"
Boris nodded, his expression a little unnatural: "This news has been worn for a while, and no one wants to believe it at first. Later, some people passed on some other things......"
Li Xuan frowned: "What the hell is going on?"
His questioning made Boris immediately say: "There are many rumors in the city of Carroston, saying that the death of Knight Egger is because of you, sir, and it is Mr. Dourogar's affairs in the Imperial City of Durogar, which caused Knight Egger to be implicated. ”
After Boris finished speaking in one breath, he lowered his head a little and did not look at Li Xuan's expression.
His words made Li Xuan stunned, and the picture of his Durogar Imperial City casting a spell to destroy the Randy family's residence resurfaced in his mind.
After being silent for a long time, Li Xuan slowly spoke: "I know, what else is there?"
Boris saw that his expression was a little indifferent, and immediately said, "Yesterday Lady Mandy came to the manor to see you, but since you are in Miss Lilian's room, I asked her to come again today. There are a number of other visits that are on the list, and if you want to see them, I'll get them. ”
Li Xuan shook his head, didn't speak again, slowly walked out of the house, looked at the two rows of maple trees in the front yard, and fell into complicated thoughts.
After the "Last Judgment" in Dourogar, the mood was very bad for a long time. He had always tried his best to make himself forget that there were other innocent people in the station, and he didn't dare to think about the old and weak women and children in the station, those desperate, or fearful, or resentful eyes.
After that fire rain, I used to become completely different, and the biggest part of this difference is indifference. A complex indifference has always haunted him, Li Xuan is very aware of the murder he has committed, and he has been tormented by hatred and remorse during that time.
When he tried to avoid this, he suddenly heard that Iger was hanged in Durogar because of what he had done, and he opened an emotional opening. Once again, a lot of mixed remorse leaked out.
"You woke up early, Your Excellency Li Xuan, it looks like you didn't have a good rest yesterday?" Emma slowly walked over to Li Xuan's side.
Li Xuan nodded, his gaze still unfocused, towards the two rows of maple trees.
"The restoration of the soul is a process that takes time and patience. Emma said something more.
Li Xuan didn't react, and after a long time, he suddenly spoke: "Have you ever killed an innocent person?"
Emma was silent for a moment and looked at Li Xuan: "Is that the Last Judgment?"
"That mage said you cast a spell in Durogal. Emma said slowly.
Li Xuan's expression twitched, and he nodded faintly: "I just wanted revenge, but in the end, I was completely lost in hatred, and finally ......"
"Everyone makes mistakes, gets emotionally out of control, and gets into extreme ...... I made the same mistake before. But everything will pass, and only salvation can calm oneself. Emma said slowly.
Li Xuan slowly walked under the maple tree, stretched out his hand to touch the trunk, and was silent with mixed emotions.
The day dawned quickly, and after Li Xuanyu and the others calmly finished breakfast, there were soon guests visiting.
In the living room, Li Xuan received Mrs. Mandy with a calm face. This woman, who had always been gentle and generous, looked tired.
When he asked her why she was looking for herself, she fell silent.
"Lady Mandy, if it's because of Viscount Orin, I don't know where they are at this time. Li Xuan guessed a question and spoke.
Perhaps at the mention of her husband, Viscount Orin, Lady Mandy's face became a little nervous, and her hands on her lap tightened, and she kept trying to breathe, her chest rising and falling, as if she was brewing something difficult to say.
Li Xuan didn't urge her anymore, just calmly waited for her to speak.
Finally, Mrs. Mandy, who had been silent for a long time, finally opened her mouth: "Help me." ”
These two simple words seemed to have drained all the strength in her body, and it seemed that these two words were so difficult for her to say.
Li Xuan was slightly stunned, and asked slowly without refusing or accepting, "Mrs. Mandy, what do you want me to help you?"
After Li Xuan's words were finished, Mrs. Mandy's whole body trembled, her emotions began to fluctuate violently, her eyes were red, and bean-sized tears dripped directly on her clothes.
"Help me. Lady Mandy said again with a shudder.
Her emotions surprised Li Xuan very much, he was not good at dealing with this situation, whether it was the original world or this world, but he was vaguely affected by her emotions.
"Kill Herman, kill Thomas. Lady Mandy said in a low voice. ()
