The sick princess and Zhou Shu changed their clothes and secretly returned to the town, when it was still dark, and the town had not changed because of the massacre in the inn. The two of them finally found the lord's mansion in the dark, which was a much simpler house than they had imagined, smaller than the dilapidated mansion they had stayed in before.

The sick princess looked at the lord's family crest embossed on the stone wall of the main entrance and frowned. This crest is a picture of a bird gnawing on a wolf's corpse, and the family crest of this pattern means that the lord's family started on the battlefield with the heads of the generals of the forest country. What made the sick princess frown was not this pattern, but the family crest that should have been wiped and maintained every day, but it was now full of dirt and dust. This means that it is an act of self-condemnation for the children of the family to admit that they have dusted the family.

Zhou Shu learned to judge a family by passing the guò family crest and knew the allusions. "It seems that you guessed it right, the lord here really has some problems. "The courtyard of this big house is withered, and although it is still the most imposing building in the town, it can still be seen that it has not been carefully cared for for a long time.

Neither of them is known for their physical skills, so they rely on the help of agile jelly beans to silently climb over the tall walls and enter the mansion. The layout of the house is very simple, the two of them climbed up to the balcony on the second floor, and the largest double-door wooden shutter was the lord's room, or the study. Along the way, the figure of a servant guard had never been seen, which made the two of them much bolder, and Zhou Shu summoned the void muscles in his forearms and palms, and gently pinched the window to make the wood shatter all over the ground.

"Have you cultivated your upper limbs to the cloud level?" the sick princess felt incredulous when she saw this hand. He's only been cultivating for two days.

In the dark, Zhou Shu showed her the slightly deformed arm after arranging the void muscles, "This is my ability to change, I didn't like it very much at first, but I think it's quite useful when I get used to it." ”

"I see that your grip strength is as good as that of the second upper limb, but your personality is not very suitable for this kind of strong offensive change ability. ”

Zhou Shu said disappointedly: "Let's stop chatting here, let's go in and have a look." ”

The interior of the house is quite luxurious, and there are no lights in the house, so you can only take a look. This room is not a bedroom but a study, and the large desk is full of files. On the walls hang three one-to-one scale oil portraits, all dressed in formal attire and looking majestic. The sick princess can see from the clothes of the portrait that this is an earl's family, but the land under its jurisdiction is only one town, and it is obvious that the family is in decline.

Zhou Shu looked at the portrait and asked the sick princess: "What are you going to do when you meet the master here in a while?"

"According to the White Moon Code, conniving at subordinates for evil and royal family purposes, the duke and below are hanged. ”

"You can't even make the king equal under the law and before the law?"

The sick princess glared at Zhou Shu in the dark.

"And what if the lord is threatened?"

The sick princess pursed her lips, "The failure of the territory to govern fell into the hands of thieves and humiliated the royal family, and the door was hanged." ”

This dude is so unlucky......

"But ......," the sick princess continued, "if he can atone for his sins, I, as a princess, have the right to pardon some of his sins." ”

But I guess you wouldn't. Zhou Shu remembered the old shopkeeper and the little boy who were killed by her in the store just now, judging from the methods of the woman in front of her, she would not show any mercy to these people who embarrassed her. I am an exception.

Maybe it's just temporary...... It seems that Lao Tzu still has to guard against her!

After searching in the empty house for about ten minutes, a well-dressed middle-aged man was found by the two in the underground wine cellar. This man has a withered face and is unconscious, and if you look closely at his appearance, you can match the portrait in the study, but the person in front of him is much more haggard than the person in the painting.

The sick princess didn't expect her vassal lord to be so unproductive, not only the court was ruined, but even the family was so unbearable. As a woman, she sometimes thinks about a lot of things, and unconsciously connects the person in front of her with the situation of her own royal family, the situation is so similar, she can't help but feel lonely.

"It seems that we can only wait for him to sober up......" Zhou Shu lit a candle and placed it on the table in the wine cellar. "I don't know if it's safe here. ”

The sick princess took a random red wine from the wine rack and blew it dry. Zhou Shu smacked his tongue for a while.

"Wait here. The sick princess took out another bottle of wine and handed it to Zhou Shu, ordering, "Drink some with me." ”

Zhou Shu hurriedly waved his hand, "I can't drink without snacks." "I'm the size of a beer.

When the sick princess heard this, she took the candlestick and searched the cellar and found the place where the cheese was stored.

Zhou Shuhan one. "Even if you look at me with a round of cheese, I can't eat this drink......"

The sick princess turned out a charcoal stove and lit a charcoal fire in the basement to roast the cheese. The cheese cubes melt when exposed to heat and quickly develop their aroma. The princess didn't care about her appearance at all, but took out a small dagger and chewed on the cheese.

Seeing her like this, Zhou Shu sighed and took out some dried fruits that he had bought on the street from the space belt. It's hard to drink without alcohol, and the sick princess loves to drink so much, but she has never been able to find a partner with whom she can drink. Master Zhou was a little unbearable in his eyes, and changed his words: "Let's have a drink with you, just one glass." ”

After that, the two drank too much.

When the town lord wakes up, he finds himself lying on the cellar floor. It's not uncommon for him, and he's slept on the table and floor in the last few weeks, and hasn't touched a bed in a long time. But the man and woman lying next to him couldn't help but surprise him. The two of them had apparently drunk too much, and in their own cellar in their own house.

If it weren't for the fact that there were more than a dozen black vicious dogs squatting next to these two people, the lord would definitely draw his sword and stab these two guys who trespassed into the house. Faced with the dogs, he prepares to sneak away and then put on his own armor and come back and stab the two to death. As a result, he found that the vicious dogs were blocking the door, baring their teeth and intimidating themselves to prevent them from going out.

These mastiffs were naturally changed by Zhou Shu, and he conjured these dog things to be guards a second before he was deprived of his ability to think by alcohol, and looked at the lord by the way.

The lord tried to resist, and after being knocked down a few times, he sat down on the ground in despair, picked up a bottle of wine and drank it again.

When the sick princess and Zhou Shu woke up, it was already noon the next day, because Zhou Shu was rolling in his sleep, and one hand was grabbed on the lower abdomen of the sick princess, and then there was a slap mark on his face.

After the two of them sobered up, they sadly found that the lord had woken up one step ahead of him, but at this time he had drunk too much. Fortunately, he was still more or less awake, looking at the two of them fearlessly. Looking at him like that, just pour a few basins of cold water and probably decant the wine completely.

The sick princess and Zhou Shu were not very happy to drink, but looked bitter. The sick princess even committed the princess's disease after getting drunk, and became very willful, and babbled a lot of nonsense with a big tongue, but when she woke up, she couldn't remember.

"Who are you? Do you dare to come to my Rhodes family to steal wine, don't you want to live?"

A drunken Sir Rhodes shouted at the two thieves who had trespassed into his cellar.

The Rhodes family, the sick princess, had never heard of this little family. The White Moon Kingdom is too big, there are more than a hundred duke families that have appeared in history alone, and there are many earl families with powerful power, and the Rhodes family, a new small family that only became a nobleman three generations ago, is not qualified to enter her sight.

In response to Count Rhodes' rebuke, the sick princess casually threw him an identity card.

Sir Rhodes played with the metal card curiously, and when he saw the family crest on it, he suddenly woke up half of his spirit.

"It's the family crest of the Red Moon Royal Family?!"

The sick princess who concealed her identity borrowed this thing from her third sister to fool some small nobles, and today is the first time it has come in handy.

After Sir Rhodes saw this identity card, his whole temperament changed. He changed his previous image of a decadent drunkard, stood up solemnly, stood up straight, gave a military salute to the sick princess, and returned the identity card with both hands with humble hands.

"You don't have any suspicions?" said the sick princess, looking at the unwary knight in disappointment, "I may have picked it up or stolen it." ”

"What?" said Sir Rod, who was stunned for a moment, "aren't you here to save me?"

The Rhodes family and the town had indeed been overrun by a group of thieves six months earlier, as the Sick Princess had suspected. The thieves took Sir Rhodes' wife and young son hostage, turned him into a puppet, and arranged for the thieves to plunder the town and extort the passing merchants. In order to ensure that the incense in his house was not extinguished, Sir Rhodes did not dare to make a noise, so he had to pretend to be idle and honestly at the mercy of others. The townsfolk don't know what happened to their lord, but some of them have sensed the difference in the town in recent weeks, and they will soon notice the problem and report it to the nearby defeated city. At that time, Sir Rod's wife and son who had been taken captive would have no way to live.

The sick princess listened to Sir Rod's words and threw her hand around his neck. The duty of the lord and nobleman is to guard the homeland, I don't know how many noble children have died on the battlefield for this, but the man in front of him actually exchanged the lives of the people for the lives of his wife!

"In order to protect your children, did you give up your duties as a lord and let the robbers bully the people under your domain?"

Sir Rhodes kept his saluting posture and did not try to refute anything, he knew that he was cowardly and ashamed, but as father and husband he had no choice. He didn't expect the young man and woman in front of him to understand his father's heart, he only hoped that the two people in front of him could help him save his relatives.

The sick princess doesn't care about his relatives, she just wants to save the town from the thieves, which is her duty as the daughter of the knight king.

"You're the only one in your mansion, and there's no one else?"

Sir Rhodes replied, still saluting, "I have lost all my rights and possessions, and I cannot afford to hire a servant. The thieves were not afraid of me and did not watch out for me, so I was the only one in the whole house. ”

When Master Zhou heard this, he beckoned the dog out of the basement, which was too cramped. "Let's go out and talk to something, find a spacious place. He moved his stiff body from sleeping on the floor, "I might need a bed." After speaking, he glanced at the sick princess with an unhappy expression on her face, "Don't you need it?"
