Chapter 212 Prospects
My lord...... Why?" said Erte with difficulty, his face was already in pain, and his injured hand did not dare to move at all, and the other hand that reached over to cover the wound was trembling, but what was surprising was that Erte was still barely controlling his expression, if he had been an ordinary person, he might have screamed in pain. 【】
"Do you have to say it?" An Fei sneered.
Erte exhaled deeply, staring at his wound in silence.
"We just arrived here, you came, we didn't say a few words, the person named Shamasi came again, one coincidence is not surprising, is it too fake to have two coincidences in a short period of time?" Although he didn't know how this Erte did it, Anfei was almost certain that Erte and Nasha Masi should have a deep old grudge, and also deliberately passed on a message that Anfei and the others were his Erte's backstage, otherwise Na Shamasi shouldn't have said that when he broke in.
Ert smiled wryly, the blood flowing from the wound had stained a piece of the tabletop red, but Ott had no intention of pulling out the dagger, or he didn't dare to pull it out.
"I hate being taken advantage of, and this time it's just a warning that next time my dagger will be stabbed somewhere else. An Fei slowly stood up, and suddenly stretched out his hand and pulled out the dagger: "Let's go." He didn't want to talk about anything anymore, what he said just now was indeed what he was talking about, and what he hated most was to be deceived and used.
At this moment, Erte's back arched in pain, and his throat also made an uncontrollable gasping sound, An Fei didn't even look at Erte, and walked straight outside, but when he walked to the door, Erte said in a trembling voice: "Lord Anfei, I have something to tell you." ”
"Is it necessary to tell me now?" Anfei smiled.
"Yes!" said Erte, resolutely.
An Fei was slightly stunned, and then walked back: "What do you want to tell me?"
"Shamasi is the sixth son of the Marquis of Zose, when the soldiers of the Shining Sand Empire occupied Violet City, the Marquis of Zoser led his private soldiers to harass the army of the Shining Sand Empire, and he also paid a heavy price for this, all five of his sons were killed in battle, and Shamasi was also his last son. ”
"Huh...... Does what you're saying have anything to do with me?" An Fei looked like a smile.
"Don't you think it's okay?" asked Erte rhetorically.
Anfei was stunned again, in his impression, there were too few people who could be so humble and arrogant after being exposed to the scheme, and Erte didn't look like he was quibbling, as if there was really some important reason.
Thinking of this, An Fei had to sit back in his chair and stare at Erte seriously: "Then tell me, what does it have to do with me." ”
"If you know anything about the history of the empire, you will know that the ancestors of the Marquis of Zosai are one of the ten great heroes of the empire, their family has a badge and hereditary power, although after hundreds of years of ups and downs, the family lineage is not as good as the generation, but they have a strong influence in the Holy City and in Violet City. ”
An Fei's eyebrows raised, what Eder said seemed to be a useless preface, but a person would not watch his blood flow on the table, but would waste time by saying some useless words, so Ander listened carefully to every word of Ether.
"Lord Zose's private soldiers are only a few dozen people, and the soldiers of the Shining Sand Empire who remained after the fall of Violet City are 7,000, so Lord Zose can't do anything big at all, but he sacrificed five sons for the empire, Lord An Fei, do you think Your Majesty should reward Marquis Zose heavily?"
"Should!"
"Your Excellency, you are but an earl, and Lord Djose is a marquis!"
"I know that he has a higher knighthood than I do. ”
"There are more than ten counts in Violet City, but there is only one marquis. Erte looked at An Fei deeply: "Marquis Zose has made such a great sacrifice, His Majesty only rewarded Marquis Zose with some gold coins and twenty acres of fief, but instead gave Violet City to you, the earl! That is to say, unless Marquis Zose hides in his fief and does not come out, he must also obey your management." ”
An Fei was silent for a moment: "You mean, Marquis Zose is very unconvinced?"
"It's not just the Marquis of Djose who is not convinced, but many counts are not convinced. Edt wanted to laugh, but the pain made him smile that was even uglier than crying: "Many times, jealousy can blind people's hearts and make people very stupid! ”
An Fei frowned, if what Ert said was true, his prospects were indeed not optimistic.
"My lord, do you know how big the fief of Marquis Zosse is?" Without waiting for An Fei to answer, Ute himself slowly continued: "With the twenty acres of land obtained this time, Marquis Zose's fief is less than sixty acres, and
The land cannot be compared to a city. ”
"That's why you're deliberately provoking a conflict between me and Na Xia Masi, isn't it?"
"I just hope that your lordships will be vigilant and not be deceived by hypocritical kindness, although I have only been a sheriff in Violet City for three years, I already know those people well. ”
"Why did you choose to help me?"
"As the sheriff of Violet City, I can't be neutral at all, otherwise, I will be the first to be unlucky. Erte smiled wryly again: "I just want to be on the more capable side." ”
"You think I'm more capable than they are?"
"My lord, as I said earlier, I know them very well, the Marquis of Djosse has the advantage of fame, although his ability cannot be described as a straw bale, but it is not far off, and the same is true of their sons. The reason why all five sons were killed by the soldiers of the Shining Sand Empire this time was not because they coveted beauty?!"
"Oh?"
"They had long taken a fancy to a girl from the countryside before, but in the peaceful years, they were afraid of punishment and did not dare to act rashly, this time they took advantage of the chaos in the world, and snatched the girl away with private soldiers, and as a result, the girl's lover angrily took refuge in the army of the Shining Sand Empire, and there was an inner line to lead the way, and none of them ran away. I don't know how Marquis Djose took credit for his work, but I do know that the group of people Marquis Djose gathered had killed at most three soldiers of the Shining Sand Empire, and they were almost dead. Ert looked at his wound and said with a wry smile: "I have heard about the deeds of the adult, and I think that the adult is a very capable person, and now the facts have proved my judgment, you are indeed a person who does things neatly and never drags mud and water." Even though he had said everything now, remembering the scene just now, Ert still felt a burst of fear, he had never seen such a ruthless character, if this stab was his own heart, he really died in vain. Erte couldn't help but recall the legend about An Fei, that is, such a person, dared to indiscriminately kill Philip's grandson! After all, he was the magistrate of Violet City, and An Fei removed him from his post after taking over the political affairs, but he couldn't say a word, and he would hurt people when he drew his sword...... He felt that his future boss was less of a politician and more of a killer.
"Why don't you talk to me clearly?"
You may think that I am a person who likes to tell the truth, but I am self-defeating. ”
An Fei was speechless now, and after realizing that Erte was deliberately making himself a feud with Xia Masi, he subconsciously chose deterrence, and the method of killing chickens and monkeys has always been very effective. But now that he has discovered his political naivety, if he were a few decades older, he would certainly not use such radical methods to warn anyone. If you think about it deeply, in fact, warnings can't change anything, they should be enemies or enemies, friends should be estranged, and warnings will make your enemies more vigilant and more careful, which is really stupid behavior that outweighs the losses!
"An Fei, I'll be honest with you, in fact, I have known Eder for a long time, we trained together when we were children, but Ett's physique is very special, there is no way to accumulate magic power, and there is no way to cultivate Dou Qi, and finally he was released, and he became the sheriff of Violet City in the first few years. Appa smiled bitterly, the atmosphere was very stiff now, and he knew both sides, and he knew that he had to come out to play the round: "Erth, you are really confused! You can tell me if you have something to say! Isn't it good for me to relay it? It's all a misunderstanding made by you!"
"Did you hurt your bones?" Black Eleven stood up, then took out some healing potions and bandaged them with his own hands.
"Huh...... I know how to cooperate with adults in the future. Etter grinned a little, "And it's a good thing for me to make adults feel that they owe me a favor." “
An Fei still didn't speak, watching every change in Erte's expression, the other party's explanation was barely passable, and if the other party had other plans, he could come up with such a reason in a short period of time, Erte's quick wit was too amazing, and An Fei felt that he could believe it with reservations.
"Have you always had a strained relationship with the Marquis of Djose?" An Fei asked softly.
"Yes, very nervous. Ott said naturally: "This is also a reason why I am willing to help the Lord, if it weren't for the sudden attack of the Shining Sand Empire, I might have been driven out of Violet City by them now." ”
Hearing such an answer, An Fei believed a little more, but he never could fully trust, this is An Fei's nature, he has seen too many people of all kinds, it is difficult for him to completely trust anyone, even if he has experienced so many things in his team, there are only three or two people who can win An Fei's real trust.
