Stonehammer Town, Roshi Manor.
A carriage, escorted by a group of soldiers, drove into Roshi's estate, and when Roshi, who saw the Jones family crest on the carriage, went out to greet him, and the door of the carriage opened and a young man, Bruno Jones, stepped out.
Although the power of Edmia was in the hands of Elizabeth at this time, in this patrilineal society, Bruno was the first and legitimate heir here, and for the future ruler, Roshi still relied on etiquette and entertained him.
At the dinner table, Bruno made his intentions clear:
“...... Baron Roshi, the repair of the walls of the Nile is a matter of concern to the safety of every citizen, and as a member of Edmia, you deserve a fee, am I right?"
Regardless of the fact that more than seventy percent of the population of Edmia is currently concentrated in Stone Hammer Town, who doesn't know that they are just raising money for repairs and bypassing the imperial tax system to make money?
Although Irohi's current profit is not much, he knows that if he agrees weakly, then they will definitely come to him again if they feel that they are easy to bully.
In addition, this Bruno is a well-known straw bale in Edmia, so Roshi and Yan Yuese sent him away with dozens of gold coins.
Unfortunately, the Jones family obviously didn't want to let go of his newly entrenched, egg-laying chicken, and the next day two centurion soldiers broke into Roshi's manor and 'invited' him into Nile City.
Viscount Doyle picked on a lot of flaws in Roshi's policy that were difficult to solve for a while, such as the security of Stonehammer Town, and then a thunderous rage.
Obviously, Doyle also knew what it meant to be sent to Stonehammer Town, and on his level, he knew very well who was going to deal with this little nobleman, so it was better to make a stroke before he was finished.
Under the pressure of others, Roshi had to choose to talk about repairing the city wall again, and took the initiative to triple the donation.
Bruno, who didn't understand the meaning behind Roxi's choice to compromise, turned around and stopped him and said extremely arrogantly: "Baron Roshi, wouldn't it be over if you did this earlier, why bother to make everyone's faces look bad, you..."
"Devil!" As if squeezing out of the evaluation between his teeth, Bruno, who was trembling, raised his head and gritted his teeth at Roshi in front of him: "You devil!"
It seems that this resentment is really not ordinarily deep...
But it's no wonder that I, who told you that the Doyle family is so greedy, not to mention taking advantage of it, and you have to dare to hit my head priest of light every inch when you turn around!
Yes.
The other named Roshi decided to poison his family, precisely because this Bruno was so generous that Roshi gave him Lucy to play for a few days.
This smart and clever little catwoman is not such a simple identity as a bed warmer for Roshi, and for whatever reason, Roshi has no reason to let this idiot go.
"Thank you for your review, Master Bruno. ”
He smiled brightly, then waved his hand, and Roshi instructed Troy, "You wait for me here." ”
After a pause, he made a gesture of invitation to Bruno and said, "Let's go, Master Bruno." ”
Bruno's eyes struggled a little, and Luo Xi leaned into his ear and said, "Or, young master, are you going to let me go alone?"
Bruno's body trembled suddenly, and his face was like ashes, and he finally took a step towards the castle not far away.
"Squeak!" came to the gate of the castle, and the two guards who had been waiting by the gate for a long time hurriedly opened the gate.
The guard then said to Bruno, "Young Master Bruno is back? ”
100 gold coins in exchange for the two guards opening the gate at a specific time to let one of the castle owners and his friends in, such a deal is not justified in refusing.
Bruno glanced at Roshi, but did not speak, and the two walked in front and back.
Up the spiral staircase to the top floor, at the end of the red-carpeted corridor, is a solemn door with a waiter standing in front of it.
"How's it going?" Roshi asked, walking over
"In accordance with your orders, Your Excellency, the charcoal fire in the stove has lasted only until midnight for the past few days, and I have been sick in bed since the day before yesterday. The waiter replied
Buying the waiter was a bit of a waste, but luckily he was a member of the Holy Church, and was currently very religious, and finally fell into it under the double attack of temptation and oracle.
"Hmm!" nodded, and Roshi's eyes gestured.
The waiter opened the door, and the frequency of Bruno's body trembling reached its peak at this moment, obviously it was cold weather, but the beads of sweat were dripping big, and the eyes filled with regret and pain made his expression look a little distorted and almost deformed.
He glanced at Roshi, who had committed such a heinous crime next to him, but was standing as if nothing had happened, and it was ridiculous that not long ago he regarded this foreign nobleman as a soft egg who could choose at will, how ironic it was!
A few days ago.
Stonehammer Town, a manor somewhere.
After using his father's weight for the first time to collect more gold from Roshi, Bruno decided that he was a weak chicken that could lay eggs.
Before Rohi's arrival in Edmia, Stonehammer Town, with a population of less than 100,000, was not wealthy overall, and with Allen's tax system, even an heir like him had strict monthly expenses.
Although the title of heir is not less advantageous in the aristocratic circle, it has long been notorious after a long time, not to mention that other nobles really can't take much resources for him to enjoy.
So he was greedy and naturally set his sights on the bullying Roxi, and ran here at both ends for three days, and when the conditions he put forward were met one by one, he became more and more arrogant who didn't know how to restrain himself.
There are always things that the aristocracy wants to do, but they are worried about getting stigmatized and getting into trouble, so there is room for Sir Orison.
After seeing Lucy in the manor once, he became interested in this alien catwoman, and when he went back to find someone, he knew that this was raised by Orison since he was a child, and he planned to sell it to the provincial capital.
So he implicitly proposed that he wanted to find someone to accompany him in the autumn hunt in two days, and everyone knew the implication.
But this waited for several days, until the autumn hunt was approaching, and Bruno still did not see Roch send people to the door, and he was angry and brought a team of soldiers to the door.
"Baron Roshi, recently some townspeople went to Nile City to report, saying that you are occupying your noble status and oppressing the people, my father is very unhappy about this, I came this time..."
The method is still the same old routine, sure enough, it didn't take long for Roshi to let Lucy come over to drink a glass of wine with him, wouldn't it be over if he did it earlier, it's really cheap!
When the long-awaited plaything was finally close at hand, Bruno's whole body became excited, and he had a drink with Lucy, but it was not long before he fell asleep.
When he woke up, he was already lying naked on the bed, and next to him was a naked jade body.
Although I don't remember what happened, but at the same time that my heart was greatly satisfied, ** rushed up again, turned over the delicate body and was ready to enjoy it again, but at this moment, his whole person was cold from head to soles of his feet.
"Whew!~"
The cool breeze of the autumn night swept into the bedroom with the humid air, instantly dissipating the little warmth left inside, and Viscount Doyle, who was lying down, shivered all over his body and opened his eyes.
"Ahem!ahem!" Doyle sat up and yelled, "Billy, you damn bastard, why do you open the door!"
In the darkness, a voice quietly came: "Because the people outside need to come in." ”
"Who!" Doyle shuddered and looked silently towards the door.
Roshi walked under the little remaining moonlight, looked at Doyle and saluted, "Good evening, Viscount Doyle!"
"It's you!" Doyle was taken aback, and when he saw Bruno standing next to him, he wrinkled and wrinkled again, and asked, "What's the matter?" Bruno, what are you bringing him here for this time?"
Bruno lowered his head and said nothing, but Roshi next to him had already sent him an answer: "Lord Viscount, he is here to confess to you!"
"Repentance?" Doyle frowned, and he said coldly because he didn't notice Bruno's change because of the dim light, "Baron Roshi, do you know what breaking into my bedroom at this time is equivalent to?"
"Lord Viscount, let's listen to your son's confession first," Roshi shook his head casually
The next fluttering sentence made Doyle's whole person cold from head to soles of feet.
Law looked into his eyes, and by the moonlight, Doyle noticed that the black eyes seemed to be smeared with a layer of blood-colored brilliance.
The corners of his mouth outlined an arc, like a demon: "After all, after committing such a heinous crime as **, I don't know what kind of choice you will make between your son and daughter?"
Yes!
The moment Bruno turned the jade body over, his head went blank!
Because he was shocked to find that the woman lying next to him was none other than his own sister Elizabeth! )
