"I don't admit anything like this ever happened. Tutat suddenly understood why, when he asked Sarcomo to exercise his power, Sarcomo actually rejected his offer. Once Sarcomo asserted her powers, Empress Pars issued an immunity warrant that no one could torture him, although he could not be removed from the matter directly.

Of course, Tutat's plan at the beginning was to take advantage of the time difference and make a surprise interrogation, but Sarcomo's actions ruined his plan and at the same time gave him an inexplicable urge to breed in his heart.

Don't you not assert your own power?

Okay, I'll take your time!

There is always a dark side to human nature and the human heart, even the omnipotent and omniscient gods have to fight for their own desires, let alone an ordinary intelligent creature like a human being?

Now, he realized that he had been fooled.

He immediately took out what had happened and explained, "As I said, I suggested that His Excellency Baron Sarcomo could declare his powers, but His Excellency Baron Sarcomo rejected my offer, and he told me with certainty that he did not need immunity. ”

One of the nobles in the Council of Elders burst out laughing, his tone rising slightly, and he looked at Tutat in a mocking tone and with a foolish look, "You mean a nobleman who voluntarily refused immunity?", everyone around him laughed softly, he looked around, and finally his gaze stayed on the head of the General Administration of Taxation, "This is the funniest joke I've heard since I was forty." ”

Death ransoms, immunity, were all privileges used by the aristocracy to reasonably trample on the law, although the ransom was reduced to immunity, and may not be as useful as the death ransom in major political issues. But in small things, it was more to the appetite of the nobles than the ransom order. No nobleman would refuse immunity, just as they would never refuse a death ransom.

The chief chief's face also changed slightly, he retracted his fingers and tapped the table with his joints, "In that case, Deputy Chief Tutat, you will take the elders to meet Sarcomo, and after confronting each other, will you understand everything?"

Tutat's face grew blue, but he couldn't find any reason to refuse the request at the moment.

Soon, the group met Sarcomo in the interrogation room, and all the elders had expressions on their faces that frightened the underage children. One of the Great Elders at the head pushed away the officials who were standing on either side of Sarcomo, pointed at Sarcomo and asked, "Is this how you treat the nobles of the Empire?"

The nobility is a very strange group of people who can fight for each other's interests, and even kill people. But when the other classes touch the interests of the aristocratic class, the nobles will unite closely and tear apart all those who violate their rights and interests like vicious dogs.

Tutat was instantly sweating from top to bottom, and he glanced at Sarcomo, who was as calm as ever, and his deep eyes could not see through his inner fluctuations.

"Baron Sarcomo, I have a question that you need to answer seriously, and you can't lie or lie. The Great Elder stroked the wrinkles on Sarcomo's shoulders and said quietly and patiently.

Sarcomo bowed slightly, his voice a little hoarse, "I swear by the god of light, everything I am about to say is true." ”

"Very good!", the Great Elder looked at his companions around him, slowed down his speech, and bit it very clearly, "May I ask you if you need to declare your authority when you were invited here, that is, the Imperial Tax Administration, did this Deputy Minister Tutat ask if you need to declare your rights, and did you refuse?"

Faced with Tuttat's expectant, pleading, panicked, frightened, and uneasy eyes, Sarcomo said the last thing Tutat wanted to hear, "I have been emphasizing that I am an imperial nobleman, an imperial nobleman who has been officially canonized. I have my own power, and I have asserted my power to this Tutat Minister. But Deputy Secretary Tutat never responded positively to my request. Speaking of this, he paused, then raised his head to look at the Great Elder, "If you were me, would you refuse to assert your rights and interests under such an environment and pressure?"

"I think I get it. The Grand Elder looked at Tutat with a solemn expression, "In view of your deception of the members of the Council of Elders and your violation of the Imperial Noble Preferential Treatment Regulations, and the violation of the rules of nobility, I will protest to Empress Pars. As for you, I don't think you are qualified to continue the post of Deputy Director of the General Administration of Taxation, and now you can go home, but you can't leave the imperial capital. As he spoke, he looked at the other elders around him, all of whom nodded in agreement.

"Then Baron Sarcomo, please leave this damned place with us!", the Grand Elder was about to help Sarcomo up himself, but Sarcomo struggled twice and sat back down.

He was still as calm as before, not happy that he could leave, "Thank you and your lords for your kindness, but I won't leave here." They persecuted the nobles of the empire so brutally and rudely, if they didn't give me an explanation, I wouldn't have left here. ”

The atmosphere suddenly became a little serious, and the old nobles who had left their posts kept making eye contact with each other, and finally got the same result, that is, to let Sarcomo continue to live here. And they're going to go out and make a fuss.

On the one hand, because this incident touched their nerves, immunity was the last talisman they could keep, and there were still people who dared to blatantly ignore the privileges of the nobility. If, one day, they, or their descendants, are also caught for something, or somewhere else, will they also be treated like this? If such behavior becomes an unspoken rule, a custom, is it not necessary that the nobles will even take back the last immunity?

On the other hand, they were also angry that the Empress Pars had taken away their power, and the former Presbyterian Council and the Privy Council were called the Court of Nobles, and all cases involving the nobles had to be investigated, tried and tried by them. It can be said that when the power of the Council of Elders was at its strongest, the authority in the hands of these old men was far greater than when they were the heads of the family and the patriarchs.

Cutting off people's financial means is like killing their parents, so what is it like seizing people's power?

Of course, they also knew very well that the matter had come to such a point, and the Empress Pars would not return power to them, they just wanted to express their indignation and add some trouble to the royal family.

Tutat left the State Administration of Taxation with a blank face, and a group of old men began to connect in tandem, preparing to go to the palace to complain.

There is a saying that is very good, called desireless is rigid, which means that I don't ask you for anything, so I can naturally scold you to my heart's content.

Now this group of old men is like this, anyway, the power in their hands is gone, no matter how much they toss, they can't come back, they have resigned from the position of the head of the family and the patriarch, even if they do something out of the ordinary, the family will not be implicated, what else do they need to be afraid of?

A group of old men soon gathered in the palace, and at the foot of the steps of the throne of the Empress of Pars, some were weeping, some were sighing, some were reminiscing about the glory of the past, and some were chatting. Of course, there were also people who were crying out for Sarcomo, who described him as an innocent victim and Tutat and the General Tax Administration as evil demons, much to the Queen's headache.

Facing the noisy hall, the Empress of Pars was about to be crushed by herself.

"Quiet!", she couldn't help but pat the armrest, but it didn't work out well.

After a few seconds of silence, the group of old men began to quarrel again.

"If it were in the past, His Majesty would never have scolded us in such a tone!"

"Sure enough, people are useless when they get old? Even such demands are not taken seriously and will be reprimanded!"

......

Empress Pars slapped the armrest and got up and left directly, she has been in power for a while now, and her heart has long been different from before.

She could go, but Vito couldn't, and a group of old men immediately pestered Vito, demanding that he give Sarcomo a fair treatment.

At this time, Tutat returned home as if he had lost his soul, and there were two things he couldn't figure out.

First, how Sarcomo had been kept under strict guard, and the guards were not even allowed to talk to him, how he had passed the news out. If it weren't for him to spread the word to the outside world, how would the Presbyterians know everything that happened to him at the General Directorate of Taxes. This group of Presbyterians came too soon, not sooner or later, as if someone was commanding from a remote control.

Second, whether it was going to happen from the beginning and whether it had not happened from the beginning was in Sarcomo's consideration. He was deliberately arrested and did not ask to exercise his rights, and thus laid the groundwork, so who was he targeting?

I can't figure it out!

Casually threw the trench coat on the hanger in the entrance, and as soon as he took off his shoes, he heard the cheerful cries of his son and daughter, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of him and threw himself into his arms. He was stunned, didn't he say that he would take the children back to his wife's hometown, why did he leave and come back? His chest rose and fell violently, and he pushed the two children away a little roughly, and after taking two steps, he ran up and rushed into the living room.

He had a vague guess that made his scalp tingle, his heart racing, and his mouth dry.

When he rushed into the living room and saw several people sitting in the living room, his whole body was cold!
