Chapter 285: Refusal

Although it was late at night, in the hall of the castle, all the backbones of Leo's subordinates gathered here, such as the butler Sean, Uncle Potter, Heidi, Caraxiu, Baodong flower slag, the hundred generals Mu Feng, the beggar marquis Li Gan, the leader of the Teutonic knight team Heinrich, and the Roman infantry captain Olix all gathered together, but the atmosphere in the hall was a little dull, no one spoke, most of them hung their heads and looked sad.

During the day, the Wei soldiers who had been evacuated from Silverstone brought bad news to everyone, their master, the Marquis of Leo, was ordered by His Majesty the Emperor to be detained for investigation on suspicion of fornicating with foreign countries, and Leo was wanted by the Empire after escaping from prison. Now the fate of everyone in the castle is related to Leo, who is wanted, but they can't think of any way to help.

"Mr. Sean, you are the only one with the most knowledge and knowledge, what are we going to do now? Do you have any good idea?" Heidi asked Sean with a look of hope.

"Alas~, Miss Heidi, you must know that we are in the territory of the Varu Empire, and His Majesty the Emperor's orders cannot be violated at all, Marquis Leo is wanted, and as Marquis Leo's subordinates, I am afraid that we will soon be detained. Sean said with a frown.

"However, there is one thing that is very strange, Silverstone City was taken over by the people of the Supervision Branch, but the soldiers were able to evacuate from Silverstone City unharmed, and the castle that was the residence of the Marquis of Leo has not been taken over until now, it seems that the reaction of the Supervision Branch and the Military Department seems to be a little strange. ā€

"Don't think about it so much, the most important thing now is to get in touch with Marquis Leo, we need to know if Marquis Leo is safe!" Uncle Potter said with a wave of his hand, he didn't care about the trivial matters, thinking that finding Leo was the most important thing.

Uncle Potter's words were echoed by everyone, and they didn't look at those people in the Ministry of Supervision at all. Seeing everyone like this, Sean shook his head slightly unconsciously, looking a little dissatisfied with the short-sightedness of these people. In fact, this is also because Sean doesn't know that those legionnaires were all summoned by Leo, and Leo's safety is the basis of their existence, so what they care about most is Leo's life safety, and the rest can be in the back row.

"Since everyone thinks so, then the Teutonic knights will send people to patrol around, especially on the road from the imperial capital to the northern frontier, and be sure to carefully find the whereabouts of the Marquis of Leo. Sean groaned for a moment, then said to Heinrich.

Just as Heinrich was about to get up and prepare to agree, the wooden door of the castle hall was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and Wu Jin led Leo and Feng Xifan to stride in from the outside.

"Marquis Leo!" "Young Master Leo!" "Great master, your safe return is our greatest wish!"

In the midst of greetings, Leo walked into the hall and greeted everyone one by one. Seeing Leo appear, everyone's expressions were immediately happy, but only two people's expressions were different from everyone's. Butler Sean's first reaction to seeing Leo was to frown slightly, as if he had some rejection of Leo's appearance, and after Uncle Potter saw Leo, his face suddenly showed surprise, but there was more flickering in his eyes.

When Heidi saw Leo coming back, she immediately couldn't care about being reserved, she happily stepped forward and took his hand, her eyes were slightly red, and she said, "Young Master Leo, have you suffered?

Leo pressed the sadness of being separated from Winnie to his heart, slapped Heidi's little hand with his backhand, and replied kindly: "Don't worry, I'm fine." ā€

Caraxiu naturally would not let go of this opportunity to be flattered, and it jumped out from the side, and said to Leo with a flattering smile: "Great master, I know that your skills are great, and those stupid guys have no way to take you." ā€

The officers of the various legions were not too excited, and they all saluted Leo with their military salutes, but the joy on their faces showed how happy they were to Leo's return.

Leo strode over to the throne and sat down, and after motioning for everyone to take a seat, he said to them, "It is thanks to your hard work that the territory has been maintained during my absence. Especially in the past few days, I have worried about me, but I am very grateful that you have not given up under such circumstances. ā€

After experiencing Miss Winnie's refusal to go with him, Leo was deeply moved to see that none of his men had abandoned him, and the loyalty of these people diluted a trace of his pain from his separation from Miss Winnie.

"Your Excellency Marquis, your situation is extremely dangerous now, if it is known that you have returned to the castle, I am afraid that people from the Imperial Supervision Department and the Military Department will come one after another, and then it will be troublesome. I don't know what you're going to do?" asked Sean with a calm face.

"Although I did not have any fornication with foreign countries, Gavin XIII did not believe it, and the nobility within the empire could not tolerate me, so I planned to leave the Varu Empire. Find another place to build my own territory. Leo replied to Sean.

Hearing Leo say this, Sean's eyes sank slightly, and he looked at the ground silently, as if he disagreed with Leo's idea too much, and Sean, who had always been old-fashioned and strict in abiding by the rules, was extremely disgusted by Leo's rebellious behavior. However, Heinrich, Li Gan, Olix and others got up one after another to prepare to go south with Leo.

"Your Excellency, I'm very sorry, but I'm afraid I won't be able to follow you south. I am the steward of the castle, just as I am served by Baron Cullen, and if you leave, I will still be waiting for the next master in the castle. Sean bowed slightly, gave Leo a noble salute, and then refused to follow Leo.

Sean refused to follow him south, which made Leo feel a little regretful, after all, Sean was outstanding in terms of knowledge, etiquette and ability to deal with crises, and the loss of a talent in this way made Leo's mood feel a little low, but this is also something that cannot be forced.

However, after Sean, Heidi and Uncle Potter looked at each other, and then they also got up and saluted Leo, Heidi pursed her lips and looked at Leo and sobbed silently, Uncle Potter said to Leo: "Master Leo, I'm very sorry, we can't leave with you. After all, there is our family here, and our villagers need us too. ā€

Leo looked at Uncle Potter and Heidi with some distraction, as if he didn't think that even they would not follow him away, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.
