Sebas and Edgar arrive at the Count's calligraphy, where Julian is sitting at his desk and next to him stands the mad dog Barr.

"Sebas, you're here. Edgar, long time no see. Julian saw the two men coming, and motioned.

"My lord, Edgar has fulfilled his mission to wipe out the bandits around Karazhan. ”

"Well done, Edgar, I know you're not going to let me down. Julian nodded, acknowledging Edgar's victory.

"I let you two come, you know why. ”

"Yes. Both replied at the same time.

"Actually, I don't want to explain this, but after all, I have to bother you to finish it for me every time, so I'll just answer it. Sebas, is there anything you'd like to ask?" said Julian

"Nope. I trust my lord's judgment. Sebas flattered.

"Sebas, you ....." Edgar was dumbfounded, he didn't expect the usually suave Sebas to be so skilled in slapping sycophants. What kind of judgment, isn't it a sperm worm to rob the people's daughter, as if he had thought it through.

"Sebas doesn't have anything to say, so Edgar is left with you. Julian said with a smile.

"My lord, I hope that you will quickly release this young girl into your home to minimize the impact of the disturbance caused by this incident. Edgar said.

Listening to Edgar's words, Julian frowned slightly.

"Edgar, I was really impulsive about this. But now that you're asking me to let her go, all I can say is impossible. ”

"Why, sir?" asked Edgar.

"Because of the pleasure, I felt pleasure from that woman, is that reason enough. Julian said.

"Your Lord, your words and your actions are undoubtedly unmistakable to tyrants. As a ruler, you should protect your people, how can you rob the people and throw her fiancé into the river. I don't agree with what you're doing. After Edgar finished speaking, he waited for Julian's thunderous rage, and as a subordinate, he rebuked his lord to his face, which was not in line with the way of a minister.

"Edgar, pay attention to your identity. Barr listened to Edgar's words and stood up first, standing up and recolding angrily.

"Shut up, you bastard, if you hadn't stopped the adults in time, how could things have turned out like this. "Edgar is-for-tat.

"You bastard, you liken adults to tyrants, you are guilty of this. ”

"I'm here for the sake of the adults, unlike you guys who can only slap horses. ”

After listening to Edgar's words, Sebas was really embarrassed, why did the two quarrel and he was shot while lying down.

.......

"That's enough!" Yurian said as he looked at the two arguing fiercely, patted the arm of the chair, and whispered. Julian has a headache now, why did he see other nobles going out with dogs to bully the good people all day long, and it was okay to change the bride every night, why did he rob a people's girl and cause such a big quarrel. Damn, I actually want to sleep with a different woman every day, I haven't done it yet.

Hearing Julian's scolding, the two suddenly fell silent.

Julian got up and walked to the window, looking at the scenery outside the window and said

"Edgar, you're too pedantic!"

"Do you think rulers should die for their people?"

"Yes, right management, right rule, dedication to the people, this is the way to rule. Edgar replied.

"Wrong, you're wrong, Edgar. Julian turned and roared.

"Rulers should not die for their subjects, but subjects and courtiers should sacrifice themselves for their monarchs. ”

The Church proclaims itself God's shepherd, ruling over the nations and leading the nations over the throne of the heavenly King. But don't shepherds skin their sheep and cut their flesh, make splendid garments out of their skins, and make great feasts out of their flesh? This is the way to rule. ”

"The ruler is supposed to be the law. Edgar retorted.

"You're wrong again, Edgar. Rulers make laws, promulgate laws, and enforce laws, but rulers are by no means laws. The law governs the people, but they must not be bound by the law, and the ruler should be above the law. The ruler is the representative of the law, but the master of the law. ”

"This is the rhetoric of a tyrant. ”

"Edgar, I ask you, if the ruler is the law, what if the ruler breaks the law? ”

Edgar pondered for a moment and replied, "The ruler should be guilty. ”

"That's a good point, but who's going to enforce that? who's going to enforce the law, who's going to punish the law?"

Edgar was silent because he could not answer the question, for no king in history had ever been arbitrated by his own laws.

"The law is a weapon, a authority, not the ruler himself. Since ancient times, there have been countless kings, some who drove their people with profit and fear, and some who domesticated their people with books and canons, but without exception they were all doing illegal things. The king said that he would not steal, but there was no grass in the place where the king's army passed, and the king said that he would not kill anyone, but the king's army waged war against foreign countries, and the king said that he would not do evil, but the king was the greatest evil. ”

......

In the face of the king's wrath, no one dared to answer.

Julian sat back down, rubbed his eyes tiredly, and waved his hand

"Stand down, Edgar. ”

"Yes. Edgar exited the room.

"Master, please forgive Edgar. Sebas pleaded guilty for Edgar and bowed.

"Look up, I don't blame Edgar, he's just righteous. Julian chuckled.

"What he said is not wrong, no matter how much you plunder, ** a girl is not a matter of honor no matter where she is, if it is a civilian, you will go to the gallows, but I am not a civilian, I am the master of the law, so Edgar lost. Edgar didn't understand this. ”

"Has the woman been identified? Julian asked, and the woman was naturally referring to Christine.

"Found out, master. ”
