Hearing the voice of Count Andy Edmund approaching, Leo glanced at Feng Xifan beside him, and the two of them hid on both sides of the door of the cell passage, while Hyakji Yukishige did not know which shadow he had hidden. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

There was a click of unlocking, the heavy door was slowly pushed open from the outside, and the bright flickering light of the fire penetrated into the passage of the cell from the outside, and under the courteous guidance of the jailer, Count Andy Edmund strode into the passage of the cell.

"Bah~, what kind of smell is here!" Count Andy Edmund, who has always paid attention to manners and likes neatness, was so smoked by the sour smell that permeated the cell that he shook his mouth and nose slightly, but happened to see the Marquis of Leo hiding by the side of the door.

Earl Andy Edmund's eyes widened, and before he could scream, a sword flash flashed over him and the two jailers, and the look of horror instantly froze on his face. Feng Xifan's bloodless nickname was not called in vain, and the three of them were restrained without even reacting. When he found himself unable to move, Earl Andy Edmund's heart was filled with unspeakable fear.

Just as the two jailers fell to the ground with a thud, the sound woke up the other two jailers outside, but before they could get up and approach to investigate, Yukishige Momoji, who had touched him, appeared from behind them, and two kunai were inserted into the throats of the two jailers, causing them to fall to the ground without making a sound.

"Count Edmund, we meet again!" said Leo coldly to Count Andy Edmund, reaching out to lift him up, and dragging him out of the passage with one hand to the jailer's guard's cell.

Count Andy Edmund's eyes were terrified, cold sweat was constantly breaking out on his forehead, and he wanted to open his mouth to speak, but he couldn't make any sound. The corners of Leo's mouth twitched slightly, this Andy Edmund was obviously just a pawn, but it was the Duke of Rawls who wanted his own life? or...... Raymond?

"Master Feng, give him a little bitterness first. "Leo didn't have a crush on Count Andy Edmund.

Feng Xifan raised his hand and tapped a few times on Count Andy Edmund's body, and Count Andy Edmund felt that the blood in his whole body was churning and flowing backwards as if he had come to life, and the feeling of blood flowing backwards made him feel painful, and before he could breathe, his eyes were dilated and tears flowed.

Count Andy Edmund was so unbearable that he could survive even a few breaths, which made Leo look a little disdainful, but he was afraid that no one would ask him if he was killed, so he hurriedly asked Feng Xifan to relieve him. As if he had been fished out of the water, Count Andy Edmund was soaked in cold sweat, his mouth was open like a toad, and he was gasping for air, and the snot, tears, and saliva on his face were in a mess.

"Who asked you to harm me, why did you slander and frame me at the court, and who did all this?" asked Leo as soon as Count Andy Edmund had recovered a little.

"Duke Rawls, these are all things that Duke Rawls asked me to do. He said that because the reward for you made His Majesty very embarrassed, in order to share His Majesty's worries, he had to give you a charge to offset your merits. You have also seen it, and His Majesty has personally ordered it at the court meeting. Andy Edmund looked at Feng Xifan with fear in his eyes, and he exclaimed in horror.

"Then is it also His Majesty's order that you come to the cell tonight to harm me?" Leo's words were full of coldness, which made Count Andy Edmund shiver.

"No, it was the Duke of Rawls who asked me to do it tonight, anyway, now that the Kingdom of Lorraine has fallen into the hands of the Empire, the Paris Empire is also greatly damaged, even if it doesn't affect anything without you. So the Duke of Rawls asked me to kill you, pretending that you committed suicide in fear of sin, even if someone was suspicious or dissatisfied. In order to survive, Earl Andy Edmund confessed everything he knew like pouring beans from a bamboo tube.

"Why did Duke Rawls kill me?" asked Leo again.

"Because your merits are too great, if you want to be rewarded according to your merits, you must at least be promoted to duke, but now the empire can't give you so much land and resources, which will involve the interests of many nobles, and you have risen too fast, the aristocracy can't tolerate you at all, so Duke Rawls ordered me to kill you!"

Leo tilted his head and closed his eyes slightly, and he realized that he himself was too radical and too high-profile, causing dissatisfaction among the aristocracy.

"Then if you kill me, aren't you afraid that His Majesty the Emperor will pursue me?" Leo's voice was hollow as if it were coming from afar.

Count Andy Edmund glanced at Leo secretly and said resignedly, "Your Majesty...... Even if Your Majesty knows, it's nothing, I'm afraid that in Your Majesty's heart, this is the best result. ”

Hehe, he didn't even have a waste to understand, Gavin XIII had long been suspicious of himself, of course, he wished he was dead, so that he didn't have to worry about the reward anymore, and he didn't have to worry about his own legion.

"Raymond, Raymond!" Leo gritted his teeth and popped out the name between his teeth, but I'm afraid Raymond is no longer the Raymond of the past, he is now His Majesty the Emperor of the Varu Empire.

Now that he had asked what he wanted to know, it was useless to keep this Count Andy Edmund, and Leo struck Count Andy Edmund in the throat with a knife, shattering his Adam's apple.

Under the cover of night, Leo quietly returned to his mansion, but fortunately, the attention of Gavin XIII and the Duke of Rawls was focused on him, and his mansion property was not seized.

"Young Master, you're back!" Ney was already waiting for Leo in the foyer.

"Hmph!" Leo didn't give him a good look, ignored his greeting, and walked straight into the hall.

Ney pursed his lips helplessly, he knew that what he did would definitely make Leo feel unhappy, so he immediately followed behind Leo and explained: "Young master, in fact, this is a good opportunity to break away from the framework of the Varu Empire, and we are enough to gain a foothold on this continent with our own strength." ”

"Michelle Ney, you have to remember that I am the one who calls the shots, and that you have exceeded your authority. If you dare to ignore my existence and challenge my authority, then all that awaits you will be my wrath!" Leo turned and shouted at Ney.
