Chapter 066: Bitter Meat Scheme
After the magic circle in the Kara Mountains was restored, except for a dragon left to guard the mountain range, the other people and dragons returned. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć As soon as Barron returned to Chado, he was summoned by the king, and in the presence of all his ministers, he was given the title of viscount, and he was made the commander of the Imperial Guard. This seal caught many people unexpectedly, even the party Barron was a little confused, and he didn't do anything to be sealed, how could he come back...
But the reason given by the king was irrefutable: "Barron has earned the trust of the true dragon, and he is now a true dragon knight, and the dragon knight is capable of any honor and reward." ā
In the end, the king also rewarded Barron with a house that matched his status and a fief belonging to Barron because of his title, Barron could not get the castle, and Barron did not want the castle, so he finally chose his own small fishing village, which now rightfully belongs to Barron.
In order for everyone in the royal city of Chateau to know the news and know Barron, the king also ordered that an arena would be held, and the five contestants who would win the tournament would become the king's royal guard, and the contestants could come from all over the country.
With such a big movement, for almost half a day, the three cities of Chado knew about Barron Evan's existence. His title may not be as good as most of the nobles in the city, but his power and limelight have made many people think about how to deal with their relationship with Barron, according to the usual style, when Grace officially abdicates, Barron is likely to become the next royal chief, a royal chief who can ride a dragon, second only to the king.
......
In the past three days, Barron has been very busy, busy entertaining all the guests who come to congratulate him in his new home, and in the past, maybe only some children of noble families had some intersections with Barron, but now more of them are counts, marquises, and even Harriman Howard, the former lord of King Chador, who came to congratulate Barron in person.
These people come from different camps, different regions, allegiance to different people, some different beliefs, of course, the purpose of coming is also different, dealing with people is not Barron's forte, it really makes him tired a little bit of a turn, fortunately Hogan has helped him a little in the past three days, this guy who has been in contact with various nobles since he was a child is more than enough to deal with these.
In the evening, the two of them sat in the dining room and drank wine, which was much more magnificent than the room Barron had once had, with a reception hall, a dining room, and a servant to call on.
"I'm a little jealous of you, but I've always wanted to be the next Imperial Chief. Hogan teased.
"If the king had made this decision in the end, I think I would have collapsed, I couldn't stand this life. ā
"Haha, that's right, although the job of the royal chief is mainly to protect the king and eliminate dissidents, these flatteries are inevitable in a high position. However, you still lack a butler to help you take care of the things in the house, and these servants can also be replaced, and many of these people are the eyeliner of some people. ā
"The housekeeper can think about it, as for the servants, forget it, they can't get what they want here. ā
At this moment, a servant came over and bowed his head and said, "My lord, Prince Ed is here." ā
As soon as he finished speaking, Barron stood up and was not ready to go out to greet him, Ed had already walked in, raised his hand to let the guards who followed him stay outside, and said with a smile, "I know Lord Barron has been very busy these days, so I'm here to congratulate you now." Master Hogan is here, can I have a drink with the two adults?"
......
After drinking, Hogan left on his own initiative, leaving only Ed and Barron in the restaurant. Ed held his glass and looked at Barron and said, "Can I trust you, Barron?" ā
"You don't have to, you know me. ā
Ed smiled, "That's right, you're a nice guy, so I'm here." There is no other meaning to come to bother, the nobles who live in Chado have to be careful, and so do I. For the sake of our previous relationship, I hope you can promise me one thing. ā
"Your Excellency, please. ā
"In the future, when the king needs you to do something, such as killing someone or needing you to perform some secret mission, can you notify me, rest assured that no matter what task you perform, I will not stop it. ā
"It stands to reason that I shouldn't have told you these things, but the adults came in person, and I am willing to share them with them. ā
"Hehehe, Barron, I used to think you were a more rigid person, and it seems that I was wrong. Now that you are the captain of the Imperial Guard, there are many people who have used money to tie you up, so I won't give you money. If you encounter something in the future that you need me to help you do, I can secretly help you do a lot of things, you know, I'm good at these things, and the same goes for the news. ā
"I really need help with one thing, I want to know where Jack Moore is now?"
"Tomorrow morning, he will appear before you, alive or dead. ā
"Alive, intact, I need to investigate something. ā
......
The next morning, Barron saw Jack Moore tied up. He had Jack Moore locked up in a secret room, and he didn't have time to interrogate him right now. However, as he left, he left behind a group of Blackscales.
When Darren learned of this, he immediately sent someone to Barron's residence, where he needed to kill Jack Moore before Barron could return from the castle, but he failed, and the people he sent were captured by the Black Scales who were hiding.
Darren is a little anxious now, although he is the prime minister, but the captain of the imperial guard can arrest anyone as long as there is evidence. If he was really caught by Barron in front of the king, even if he did not admit it and avoided the incident, the king would probably find it difficult for the king to believe him, which would be fatal to Barron.
In the end, he decided to go to Barron himself, waiting was passive after all, and Darren didn't like to be passive.
When he came, he didn't see Barron, so he waited in the hall, and after a while Barron came out, saw Darren and smiled, "Your Excellency Prime Minister came in person, and he didn't go out to greet him, it's rude." ā
"Lord Barron is polite, I have been dealing with some things in the past few days, and I didn't come to congratulate him in time, and we will need to cooperate with each other in many aspects in the future. ā
Barron invited Darren to take a seat and poured a little wine, "I know, I also want to take care of the matter at hand and find an opportunity to visit, but I didn't expect the adult to come in person, and he didn't show up just now to interrogate the prisoner." I caught the guy who poisoned me before, but the person behind it sent someone to kill him, and I didn't succeed in getting caught. As a result, this guy is really a hard guy, and after being tortured for so long, he didn't say who it was. ā
"The murderer has been caught, Lord Barron, this kind of thing can't be done hard, sometimes it takes a little skill. Darren was terrified at first, but was relieved to hear that he didn't say anything.
"Maybe, but this guy didn't have a move, and the killer who came to kill him made a move. Barron said suddenly, then looked at Darren's trembling face and asked, "Do you want to know who it is?"
"I guess whoever it is, Lord Barron is going to arrest someone next, right?" Darren reacted quickly.
"It's a bit far away, and the owner of Black Sparrow City is not easy to grasp. Barron said, taking a sip of his wine.
"Oh, did he do it?" Darren looked surprised, but he breathed a sigh of relief inside.
"It's normal, I used to be loyal to the Brooke family, and they were afraid that I would find out that Lin Yu in the royal city was a fake. ā
"The recent behavior of the Calus family is indeed very irrational, and it is time to take good sanctions. Don't worry, Lord Barron, I have some friendship with Naos, and I will help you solve this matter, even if you can't capture him, it should still be okay to pay a little loss to your lord. ā
"Really, I would be grateful if that were the case, and the Prime Minister knows that I don't have anything right now. ā
......
When he arrived at the secret room, Jack was already resting on the bed, covered in scars. Barron walked in and said, "It's settled, he's going to trust you 100 percent, I don't know what you're doing to make him believe in you?"
"Yes, but... But I don't have time to gain his trust. ā
"You've achieved your goal, but now what am I going to do with you?"
"He'll still find someone to kill me, and when the time comes, I can take the opportunity to escape in the scuffle between you and the other party.
"It's a bit risky, and it's likely that you'll be dead by the time I come. ā
"I believe in you as much as you believe in me. Jack's eyes were determined.
