Chapter 126: Treacherous Thunder (Third Update)
Since Lei Ming has made a decision, Marquis Edward will definitely not be able to escape a severe beating.
Marquis Edward temporarily lived in the City Lord's Mansion, and it was easy to know his whereabouts.
"The patrolling guards have been branched out, let's do it!"
While Marquis Edward was walking around after afternoon tea, a hemp bag fell from the sky and encased the unprepared Marquis Edward inside.
"Bang bang bang bang!" a group of young men surrounded the Marquis Edward in the middle, and two large planks clamped him, imprisoning his mobility, and then put the sticks together without mercy.
Even Alun and Amo, who were called by old Sean to show Lei Ming's injuries, were on the list, and it was really difficult to get angry without doing it himself.
They didn't follow what Lei Ming said, and they used books to beat them, which are things that literate people read.
They also have a set of tricks for beating people, two large planks together, Marquis Edward can't move even if he wants to, and the stick is extremely painful when knocked down, as if his internal organs are about to be shaken.
"Who? Who, help! Hmm......"
Marquis Edward kept kicking his feet and wanted to struggle, and wanted to ask for help, but how could these young people who had been planning for a long time give him a chance, revenge, and his hands were particularly black, if it weren't for the meat that Marquis Edward usually raised, he might have been broken a long time ago.
"What are you doing!"
As had been arranged, after they had beaten the Marquis Edward, the patrolling guards appeared very punctually, and the captain of the guard shouted righteously and led the group towards this direction.
"Run!"
This was all pre-arranged, and when they were almost done, the patrolling guards would appear.
The captain of the guard was a small captain in the private army of the Bourbon family, and he knew about this plan, so although he shouted enthusiastically, he did not run fast, and the patrol guards who followed him naturally would not rush out stupidly to catch the murderer.
It was normal that the guards did not catch up with them from such a distance.
"Who is it?" the captain of the guard hurriedly rescued Marquis Edward from the hemp bag, and he saw that Marquis Edward's face was good. His hair was a little messy, and he lay on the ground, curled up in a ball, in pain all over his body. "Ah, it's Marquis Edward, how are you?"
The captain of the guard has a good talent for acting, and that kind of heartfelt surprise and care deceived Marquis Edward, even at this moment. Marquis Edward thanked the captain of the guard from the bottom of his heart, and he thought to himself that if he hadn't arrived in time, he would not have known how long he would have been beaten.
"Why are you still stupid! Why don't you arrest the villain who beat the Marquis of Edward!"
The captain of the guard reprimanded his patrol guards in a tone of righteous indignation, and the guards scattered and ran away, while he picked up the beaten Marquis Edward, and a chorus of cold greetings moved the Marquis Edward's care.
On the other side, Thunder decided to knock on the Marquis of Edward, such a trivial matter was simply easy for him, and he sent the commander of the private regiment, Mulendo, out. Arrested all the dozen or so attendants who had followed Marquis Edward.
Divide and charge, whip waiting!
After Lei Ming received the news that the plan was going well, Shi Shiran walked out, and at this time, it was time for him to appear and take care of our Marquis Edward, who was beaten badly.
Marquis Edward was sent to an elderly church priest for healing, he had come to Bourbon Province to suppress the Church of Light, but at this time, the priest of the Church of Light needed to cast a healing spell on him to relieve his pain, which was undoubtedly a very ridiculous thing.
Lei Ming walked in with a sad look on his face, and he saw that the elderly priest was resting. Casting small healing spells in a row was a huge burden on him, and he was only a level 2 priest and a low-level professional.
The Marquis of Edward, on the other hand, had been staring at the door, and he saw thunder coming. He moved and wanted to salute Lei Ming, of course, this was just a gesture, Lei Ming stopped him in time, and said sadly: "Marquis Edward, I didn't expect to hear such unfortunate news just after lunch. There are villains who dare to commit murder in the City Lord's Mansion, please rest assured, I have sent someone to investigate this matter thoroughly, and I will definitely give you an explanation!"
Lei Ming said it categorically, but he frightened the Marquis Edward, he was a little suspicious of Lei Ming, but he felt that Lei Ming had no motive to send someone to beat him, which was not in line with common sense.
But he was attacked in the City Lord's Mansion, forcing him to be more vigilant against the thunder.
"Does the young Duke of Bourbon know?" was the biggest question in Marquis Edward's mind right now.
However, he certainly didn't show anything out of the ordinary, and he expressed his heartfelt thanks to Lei Ming for his condolences.
And it was at this time that old Sean came, he came in and whispered a few words in his ear, Lei Ming listened to it for a while and sat up, and his slight change in movement attracted the curiosity of Marquis Edward.
After hearing this, Lei Ming nodded heavily, and then turned his gaze back to Marquis Edward, who was lying on the hospital bed.
Lei Ming groaned for a while, and then he opened his mouth and said to Edward: "Marquis Edward, the villain who beat you has been found out by the guards of my Bourbon family, but you must be mentally prepared, because the main culprit is an attendant you brought from the imperial capital, according to his confession, he is dissatisfied with you, so he gathered a group of gangsters in the city who hate the arrogant nobles and retaliated against you!"
Marquis Edward was skeptical, the attendants he brought from the imperial capital were all people he trusted, but Lei Ming said it with a careless appearance, which made him think carefully in his heart about whether there was such a possibility.
"Marquis Edward, can you act, maybe you can get more information by going to see the main culprit for yourself, I don't think this matter is simple, there may be some conspiracy!"
Thunder encouraged Marquis Edward to meet the main culprit in person, and only after meeting the main culprit in person would Marquis Edward believe the arguments arranged by Thunder.
In fact, this attendant brought by Edward from the imperial capital had been bought by Lei Ming with Jingel, and in order to ensure that nothing went wrong, Lei Ming poured him a cup of poisoned water.
In order to learn the truth, Marquis Edward endured the burning pain in his body and followed Lei Ming to meet the squire who Lei Ming said had beaten him.
The place where they met was in an underground prison, but there were no prisoners in custody here, and the bribed attendant was a middle-aged man with short orange hair, covered with scars from beatings, and his eyes looked a little fierce in the dim underground prison.
The Marquis of Edward, who recognized the squire at a glance, exclaimed, apparently surprised: "Gregory! It's you!"
The Marquis of Edward looked shocked, and he began to believe what Thunder had said.
"Phew! That's what Lao Tzu did! You slept with my beloved woman back then, and you only hated me for not being decisive enough to beat you to death!"
Grigory spat a mouthful of blood-soaked saliva and shouted fiercely.
Lei Ming shouted hello for this guy in his heart, the performance is too similar!
Marquis Edward's chest was constantly rising and falling, obviously angry, he had slept with many women, among which was Gregory's beloved woman, where did he know?
His mind was filled with anger at this time, and he was already convinced that it was the villain Gregory who held a grudge against him, so he waited for an opportunity to take revenge today, but he did not expect to be found out so quickly by the Bourbons.
He turned his head to Thunder and brewed a few words, he wanted Thunder to leave Grigory to him to deal with, and when Gregory fell into his hands, he would definitely have to concoct it well.
"Drag it off!" However, Lei Ming gave the order before he could speak, his tone was stern, and the expression on his face seemed to be unaccustomed to Gregory's demeanor, very solemn, "Marquis Edward, there may be something wrong with this squire of yours, and my Bourbon family needs to interrogate him." ”
Hmph, Lei Ming directed such a good show, so that Marquis Edward was beaten up, gave a breath to the subordinates of the family, and then grabbed all Edward's minions and whipped them, he couldn't have handed over Gregory to Marquis Edward, otherwise what if he finally showed his feet?
Moreover, with the help of this evil ** piece of "attacking the nobles", Lei Ming can deal with several villains in the city along the river, not every lord is kind-hearted, and there will be some idle villains in Lei Ming's territory.
That's all it takes.
Marquis Edward closed his mouth in disgust, Thunder's dangerous gaze made him feel that this Gregory would not end well, he could only comfort himself in his heart, and then thanked Thunder again and again, thanking Thunder for helping him find the culprit and help him get angry.
Lei Ming smiled and excused himself, but he smiled in his heart, this Marquis Edward was sold by him and still thanked him! )
