Bachelor Easton is dead!

The shocking news spread throughout the banquet in an instant, and everyone was shocked. In the past five years, there has not been a single incident of a scholar being killed in Winterfell, let alone a four-ring bachelor who is doing research behind closed doors.

Before Tang Qi could react, a fat earl blocked him, his face full of grief and indignation: "It's you, you must have killed Master Easton!"

"This may be a misunderstanding, Earl Sharp, you calm down first. Fuyana looked a little flustered, but she still had to appease the others, and whispered to Tang Qi: "This Earl Sharp is the patron of Master Easton, and it is said that Easton once saved his family from the brink of ruin. ”

"Calm down, honorable young lady, how can I be calm, the Bachelor Easton who was supposed to come to the banquet is dead, and he is standing here in a grand manner using his status as a Bachelor, is this still a misunderstanding!"

All eyes were cast on them, and this time they unanimously fell in favor of Earl Sharp, and as a voice in the crowd shouted for execution, the others followed suit.

Fuyana's expression was impatient, the person who spoke first had already blended into the crowd and disappeared, even if she was the young lady of the Winter family, she didn't have the ability to gag everyone's mouth. After Tang Qi was stunned at first, he observed all the nobles and secretly thought about the whole thing.

"The murder of the bachelor should be burned at the stake, and someone should come and escort him to the place of trial!" shouted Veneli, who had been waiting for a long time.

"Wait! You don't have the right to send a nobleman into the Inquisition without evidence!" Fuyana stopped in front of Tang Qi with one hand, she knew very well what the Inquisition was, that is, the murderous Yuan Palace powerhouse entered, and it would collapse within 5 days, and more people committed suicide in the Inquisition every year than executed.

"Evidence, the invitation is the evidence, the breakfast shop picked up the invitation, who would believe it, I think this is what he killed and robbed. Winelli sneered.

"Killing people just to attend a banquet, are you an idiot? ”

"I don't know why, but I think he probably had another purpose, perhaps to assassinate His Excellency Ferdinand, to eradicate disobedience, which is a common practice of superiors. Veneli insinuated.

The surrounding nobles were more shrewd than the other, and they all gasped suddenly, and most of them couldn't help but take a step back, no one wanted to participate in the affairs of the An Ruide family and the Rin Dong family.

Only a few nobles who didn't understand it were still arguing.

"You!"

Fuyana drank coquettishly, but was speechless for a while.

Veneli is complacent, this can not only solve the annoying knight, but also provoke the relationship between the Winter family and Ferdinand, it can be said that killing two birds with one stone, if you can take the opportunity to add Ferdinand to the family, his heir's position will be stable, and the strength of the family will be further improved.

As for who killed the Easton Fellow, it didn't matter at all, within 3 days of being sent to the inquisition, the knight would be abolished, and it would be too late to prove his innocence.

"I can't see that this knight is here to assassinate. ”

A neutral voice suddenly came from the front door of the banquet, and a white-haired old man walked into the banquet with his hands behind his back, he was wearing single-framed glasses, wearing a light blue bachelor's gown, eight stars on the medal, and a deep light of wisdom in his eyes.

The eight-ring bachelor, Ferdinand, suddenly fell silent, and everyone saluted him solemnly.

No one expected the Lord to appear at this moment, and Winelli was a little uneasy at what he had said before entering. Tang Qi looked at the old man, he couldn't help but be stunned, his eyes rolled, wasn't he the old peasant man he met in the greenhouse just now? Ferdinand wasn't entertaining other bachelors just now, how could he be in the greenhouse?

"Sir Ferdinand, don't look at him as kind on the outside, but in fact ......," Veneli said stiffly.

"I'm not blind. Ferdinand interrupted, "I had a pleasant conversation with this knight in the shed just now, and if he had come to kill me, he would have done it at that time." ”

"In other words, he's not here to assassinate, and you still want to send a nobleman to the Inquisition with an invitation?" said Fuyana, glaring at Veneli.

"Miss Fuyana has misunderstood, I was too sad and angry just now, after all, he is the biggest suspect in the death of Master Easton. Veneli knew the advance and retreat, and secretly cursed in his heart how could a little knight know the noble Eight Rings Bachelor.

"He must be imprisoned until the truth is revealed, and since the inquisition is not suitable, he will be sent to the City Guard prison. ”

"Yes. ”

Fuyana thought about it and glanced at Tang Qi, she believed that he never killed people, and she could avoid suspicion when she was imprisoned and sent someone to investigate.

Tang Qi didn't say anything, or in his own identity, it was useless to say anything at this time, this was no longer a simple investigation. Tang Qi was silent, and he could think that if it wasn't for Fuyana's help, he would definitely be directly convicted, and there might not be an investigation, and the matter would be completely overturned.

This is the aristocracy, Don Qi clenched his fists, and this feeling of fate at the mercy of others makes people feel angry and frustrated.

Become stronger, only by becoming stronger, can you hold the fate of yourself and the people you want to protect in your hands.

At this moment, Tang Qi wanted to become stronger than ever.

The guards from Ferdinand's house came and escorted Donch away. Before leaving, Fuyana reassured him that Winelli was not very high-spirited and that it was his failure to send him to the Inquisition. And more nobles have little feeling about the departure of a knight.

For them, the life or death of a knight does not matter at all, and tonight's event is at most an after-dinner conversation.

However, it wasn't that no one cared about Tang Qi's departure, at least as soon as he left, a reporter from the Winter Daily came to interview him. Tang Qi was in a worse mood, and he began to think about the situation when his mother and Louise learned the news, Louise's cold would not get out of control again......

The escort carriage went straight all the way, and the speed was not slow to come to the city guard prison located on the edge of the civilian area, this is the largest prison in Winterfell, it looks like a fortress from a distance, the city walls are towering, and there are city guards to check at all times, and the strong people of Xianyuan Palace cannot escape.

To Tang Qi's surprise, there was a row of people standing in front of the prison gate, as well as several city guard captain-level figures.

Tang Qi couldn't help but be a little nervous, counting the fact that before the crossing, it was the first time for him to come to the prison as a law-abiding citizen, looking at the dark door, Tang Qi's palm, who was not even afraid of dead bodies, was sweating slightly.

The carriage stopped, followed the guards and got out of the car, and four uniformed city guard captains stepped forward, and when Tang Qi was nervous, they suddenly bowed their heads: "Your Excellency Tang Qi, we have been ordered to provide as good conditions as possible during the stay. ”

"Huh?" Tang Qi was stunned for a moment, what about the greedy prison guards, the prisoners who formed gangs, and the cruel prison life that showed human nature?

The four captains of the city guards were respectful, they didn't know who the knight in front of them was, but thinking of the people of the Winter family just now telling them to treat them well, how dare they be disrespectful.

In this way, the prison door slowly closed......
