Chapter 40: The Rebellion

Kempinski's face turned pale, and he looked at Marquis Ryrik sitting on his right hand in a panic. The Marquis www.biquge.info didn't say anything, just raised the white porcelain teacup and blew it gently, with a playful expression on his face. Count Goodwin panicked, grabbed Kempinski and asked in a low voice, "Didn't you say it was all done?"

Kempinski's panic had completely turned into anger, and he pointed at Mira and said, "This prisoner is lying, and here is his handwritten note to prove that he has confessed to all the crimes." ”

Mira said lightly: "That's what you forced me to sign, people are under the eaves, how can I not bow my head, if I don't sign this, can I still live until now?"

Kempinski laughed angrily: "Boy, do you know what kind of crime it is to falsely accuse a nobleman?"

"No matter what the crime is, it won't be bigger than my current one, right?"

Seeing that everyone in the Holy See was smiling faintly, Marquis Ryric, who had not spoken, finally spoke: "Young man, do you have any evidence for the accusations you made?"

Kempinski immediately became proud: "Yes, do you have any evidence? ”

Mila organized the language: "First item, about the Gipps, I ......"

Marquis Ryrik immediately raised his hand: "His Majesty the Emperor has not yet made a decision on what to do with the Gipps, so there is no need to mention this item. ”

Mira seemed to punch in the air, unspeakably uncomfortable, and said in a slur manner: "The second item, the second item." He suddenly had an idea and shouted to the crowd gathered in the audience: "Everyone, if anyone has experienced the Battle of the Transition Gate, or has family and friends who have experienced it, please come out and help me prove it." ”

Everyone fell silent and looked at Mira together.

When no one responded, Mira cried out again in a hurry: "Is there no one who can come out to testify against him?"

Still no one paid attention to him, and Mira looked around, only to see indifferent faces and a mocking sneer at the corners of Kempinski's mouth. Mira suddenly understood, this time back to the city has not seen the defeated army retreating from the desert, presumably Kempinski found a way to transfer them out of the city, and under the control of so many city guards, even if some people know the inside story, but who dares to come out and tell the truth?

Mira had a feeling of being abandoned by everyone, and he looked around blankly, trying to find a pair of sympathetic eyes, but saw nothing. Isabel raised her hand, as if she was about to make a move, but was glared at by Lyudmila fiercely, and immediately did not dare to move, with a look of unbearability on her face.

Kempinski now had the upper hand, and he looked at Mira as if a cat was teasing a dying mouse, and he looked around triumphantly and said to Mira in a playful tone: "Isn't there a third item? Why don't you mention it? Do you want me to shout for you? Who saw me kill our loyal soldiers? Who can prove it?"

"I, I can prove it. There was a loud shout from the crowd.

In Kempinski's surprised eyes, several people slowly walked up the ladder to the high platform, and Mira looked at the familiar figures, one-eyed, fast-legged, big, and the foodie they protected in the middle, and tears began to blur her eyes. But soon he noticed that a small group of city guards who had been standing on the edge of the platform to maintain order raised their spears at the same time and stabbed them fiercely.

A pale yellow defensive shield bloomed around the foodie, just enveloping the four of them completely, and at the same time, the sound of guns breaking off on the defensive shield sounded. Quentin Magister, who had been standing beside Marquis Ryric, gently twisted his finger and said, "Lord Kempinski, isn't it too blind to kill people in public like this?"

Kempinski changed color and said: "Don't get me wrong, but in the recent past, there have always been Diao people who want to harm me, and I am afraid that you adults will make some mistakes, so I asked the soldiers to take strict precautions." Moreover, these people are sneaky, most of them are allies of this Mira, and it is more likely that they are assassins, so it is better to be executed as soon as possible. ”

Cardinal Philip was also interested: "Oh, how do you know that they are Diaomin?"

Kempinski did not seem to be as respectful to the Holy See's side as he was to the envoys of the imperial capital, and he said proudly: "The people of the city dare not speak, only they dare to come forward, not the people, what else can it be?"

The cardinal raised his eyebrows, and before he could speak, a green shadow flashed on the stage, as if a wind was blowing through the field, and all kinds of hidden weapons suddenly fell around Mira like rain, including throwing knives, hidden arrows, poison darts, dark crossbows, and even a meteor hammer from Huaguo and a shuriken from Fuso, forming a black ring on Mira's periphery. The Sword Saint of the Wind held a thin sword and said to Kempinski with a calm face: "Now that the charges against Mira have not been confirmed, is the city lord ready to kill people and kill them?"

Kempinski said with a relaxed face: "These are not my arrangements, they are all spontaneous actions of the people in the city who hate Mira, which just shows how outrageous Mira's ugly behavior is." ”

The Wind Sword Saint sneered: "Are the people?" His figure flickered, and there were suddenly exclamations and screams from the audience, and human heads flew into the sky. After a while, the cyan wind shadow returned to the high platform with a big man in black, and as soon as the big man landed, he hugged Kempinski's leg and cried: "The city lord save me, we all did according to your orders." Kempinski kicked him away with a blushing face.

The Bright Moon Sword Saint got up from his seat little by little, walked in front of the Wind Sword Saint step by step, and said word by word: "Your Excellency, as a saint-level powerhouse, but you attack some small people, do you want to bully the weak?

The Wind Sword Saint snorted coldly: "After so many years, Mingyue, why are you still good or bad?" These people knew at a glance that they were the killers arranged by Kempinski......

"I don't care about those people, I only care about you, for so many years, there has never been a saint-level powerhouse who dares to kill people on the street in Stilwell City, you are the first. ”

The Wind Sword Saint laughed angrily, "Then what do you want?"

Just as the Bright Moon Sword Saint's hand was slowly stretched out to his waist, Marquis Ryric spoke at the right time: "Did we get the focus of the matter wrong, shouldn't we ask those few people who came out to testify?"

Under the leadership of the Marquis of Rick, the foodie began to slowly recount that he had followed Mira's arrangement, and took the almost collapsed Kempinski to cross the pontoon bridge first under the arrangement of the old man at the ferry, and then rushed all the way back to Stilwell. In the city, first he was restricted from going out, and then there was the massacre of the city lord's mansion, he was sent out by the old shaman's last secret technique, and hid in a temple for a few days, waiting for the limelight to pass before he dared to come out and meet the fast legs.

The foodie's expression had always been calm, calmly recounting the place where he had fled, calmly saying the names of each of his companions, so detailed that it was impossible to doubt every word he said, but Mira could clearly see the anger in his heart from his calm appearance. The foodie's fists were clenched tightly and his body trembled slightly, and if it wasn't for the big guy, Mira had no doubt that he would have punched Kempinski in the face.

And Kempinski's performance was as if someone had punched him: "You lie, I don't know you at all, and you were Mira's subordinate, he must have deliberately asked you to frame me." ”

Earl Goodwin took out a snow-white handkerchief and wiped the corner of his forehead: "Yes, yes, we must not wronged a good man......"

"But you must not let a bad guy go. Marquis Ryrik answered appropriately.

Since coming to Stilwell, this marquis has attended balls every day and hooked up with noblewomen, no different from ordinary nobles, Kempinski has gradually taken him less seriously, and he did not expect that he would show such a strong aggression.

Kempinski shouted, "He's lying, I've been supervising the battle at the front of the battle, I've never thought of evacuating alone, and I'll never do anything like this that would be against my family and personal honor." ”

"Where is your honor?Have you ever had an honor?" An officer in the uniform of the Imperial Cavalry stepped onto the stage, protected by several mercenaries.

"Aren't you going to the Imperial Capital to report on your work?" Kempinski's expression now seemed to be a ghost.

Kang Zesi sneered: "The imperial capital is not hell, if you can go, you can naturally come back." He put his legs together and gave a military salute to the envoy of the imperial capital, saying, "Captain of the 16th Cavalry Squad of the Sidi Front, Conzes von Krupp, report to Lord Ririk." ”

Marquis Ryric laughed: "Chauizes, your father has not mentioned you in front of me a lot, but looking at you now, you really have a bit of old Krupp's demeanor, do you have anything to do?"

"My lord, I have come out to testify that Kempinski, the lord of Stilwell, did not take part in the command of the Battle of the Ferry, let alone stand with the soldiers to resist the enemy, and according to the information I have received, he escaped across the pontoon bridge very early. ”

Kempinski was so angry that he blew his beard and glared: "Nonsense, you little rabbit, I want to ......"

Marquis Ryrik sank his face: "Lord Stilwell, can I understand that you are insulting the glorious Krupp family?"

Kempinski immediately stopped shouting, and Conzes glanced at him contemptuously and said loudly, "Lord Ryric, as far as I can see, the entire battle of the ferry was commanded by Grand Knight Link. ”

Marquis Ryrik snorted, "So where is he now?"

A trace of grief and indignation flashed in Conzes's eyes: "I was secretly executed, and in addition, while I was transferred back to the imperial capital to report on my duties, the three thousand one hundred and forty-six soldiers who were at the forefront at that time, including the twenty-three cavalry under my command, were all buried alive by the Kempinski city lord. ”

Kempinski yelled hysterically, "I should have buried you alive too." He tried to pounce on him and choke Conzes to scuffle, but he was trapped in place by Quentin's magician.
