Chapter 116: Haman's Plea for Help
I didn't expect Vice Speaker Cecil to come uninvited and bring such a large group of celebrities and dignitaries to the gate of Mr. Daken's manor, which was really unexpected by everyone, and Mr. Daken had no choice but to open the door and let them in, and he couldn't turn them away, right?
I had no choice but to greet Deputy Speaker Cecil and his party at Mr. Dackon's mansion, and in the crowd I saw familiar faces such as Miss Winslether and Patriarch Hamilton, but I did not expect them to come. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Click!" "Click!"
As soon as I entered the door, I heard the sound of my camera, and it turned out that among these people there were several reporters with magic cameras in their hands, and it seemed that Deputy Speaker Cecil was eager to tell the world about his visit to me!
"Ahaha, why does our great hero feel unwell, since you can't come to my place, I'm going to come with you all to visit you!" Deputy Speaker Cecil took the cigar from his mouth and laughed at me, this guy's mouth was full of smoke, and Anne and Emma, who were standing next to me, couldn't help but frown and take a step back.
"I'm really sorry, Chris is really tired, he just wants to recuperate with me for a while, I wanted to visit again in the future, but I didn't expect so many people to come over. "Mr. Daken was there to speak for me, and I deliberately pretended to be weak in order to make others believe him.
"Haha, it's good to drink some wine in this situation, it's guaranteed to make you feel a hundred times more energetic!" said the bold Hamilton next to Deputy Speaker Cecil, the bearded dwarven patriarch seemed to think that wine could cure all diseases!
"Why don't you let me sing a song, maybe it will lift your spirits. Miss Winslether said to me gently, not at all that she was Carlson's biggest singer, but rather like a big sister next door.
"Ahaha, don't bother Chris, let's take a picture with this national hero, and then let him recuperate, and then let's have a good chat with Daken about the future Dragonstone trade, how about it?" suggested Deputy Speaker Cecil.
"Well, Deputy Speaker Cecil, since you have come all the way, let me do my best as a landlord, and a luncheon will be held for you at noon, and we will have a good talk at the table. Mr. Daken said with a smile, greeting Deputy Speaker Cecil warmly.
"Well, it's also an honor to be entertained by you, ahaha!" Vice Speaker Cecil laughed, took the cigar from his mouth and took out a puff of smoke rings, and then walked up to us with the crowd, and let the cameraman point the camera at this place without stopping, I had to force a smile helplessly, and I only hoped that I would never encounter this kind of entertainment again in the future...
After the group photo, I and the others hurried out of the hall and upstairs under the leadership of Harvey, wanting to go back to the room to rest, and it was quite uncomfortable to deal with this kind of musicous scene.
Just as we were about to return to our respective rooms, a female voice came from behind us: "Everyone, please stay!"
I looked back and saw a woman I had never seen before, she was dressed quite maturely, with long black hair draped over her shoulders, thin black eyebrows painted with eyebrow pencils, a pair of black eyes under long eyelashes, scarlet lips full and soft, and she was also wearing a light blue off-the-shoulder dress, which looked very elegant and fashionable. Behind this beautiful woman stood a girl dressed as a maid, carrying a small suitcase in her hand, with a respectful look.
I was wondering what the two of us were up to, when the mature beauty walked up to us and whispered herself, "I am Harman Jenner, the daughter of Supreme Speaker Anthony, and Lawrence's sister. ”
Harman: It turns out that the mature beauty in front of me is Lawrence's second sister who works in the courthouse, and that should be Xiujie's sister, what is she doing here?
Harman then said to us with an eager face, "I heard that Lawrence has a good relationship with you, and I would like to ask you to help me emphasize how Lawrence killed his relatives and played an important role in this counterinsurgency campaign, so that it may be able to reduce the negative political influence of Xiujie's stupid man on my father." ”
"Lawrence did help us a lot at the time, I'll tell you about it, but don't you want us to say a few more words on Hughjie's behalf first? Now you should be more concerned about him than about the reputation of Supreme Speaker Anthony? After all, Hujie is guilty of a felony. I said to Haman.
"Hmph, that idiot, it's all because of him that we are so passive, and even my father's position as the supreme speaker has become precarious, I really don't know what he's thinking in his head? This kind of person is really a waste of his father's painstaking cultivation of him, his father cultivated him so carefully, and in the end he was so harmed that he couldn't step down, I would have drawn a line with him in the court today, and asked my colleagues to sentence him to the heaviest punishment!" When it comes to Xiujie, Harman has a look of disgust on his face, which makes people think that they are brother and sister at all, but like a feud, I can't help but think of what Lucy said to Lawrence when she commented on Harman in the borough square, and it seems that her accusations are not made out of nothing.
"How is Lucy's mother?" Neil asked Haman.
"You say, that old maid, we won't let her stay in our house if her daughter does such a thing, and this old woman has been driven away by me, lest her calamity daughter come to my house and cause unnecessary trouble. Harman said.
"What? Did you drive the aunt away, and where would she live in the future, and if there were any relatives who could take care of her?" said Anne in astonishment.
"Then I can't control that much! Really, we treated their mother and daughter quite well, but I didn't expect that little girl to treat us like this! Let's take it as my own retribution! Xiu Jie too, I have suggested that my father sever the father-son relationship with him, so that he should be able to keep his position as the supreme speaker, after all, the people like his father's iron-faced and selfless image. Harman's tone was still cold, and it was clear how merciless she was to those who betrayed their family.
"Since you promised to help, it would be great, then I won't stay here for long, I don't want Cecil and those people to see it, it's too embarrassing, by the way, these are gifts to thank you, please accept them, and thank you again when this storm passes!" Haman said, gesturing, and one of the attendants standing behind her brought the small suitcase in front of us, and opened it with a swift hand.
When we looked inside the suitcase, there were five big yellow gold bars! These were worth two thousand gold coins, enough to buy a magic car! It seems that Haman still wants to buy us, which is even more uncomfortable than the method by which Deputy Speaker Cecil asked me to take a group photo and get married, it is simply too naked!
"I promise you to tell the media good things about Lawrence, he did us a lot of help, but I will only tell the truth, there will be no exaggeration or fabrication, so you should take these things back!" I walked up to the maid, covered her suitcase, and said to Harman behind her.
"Hmm... I hope you'll think again, maybe your other companions are interested in this?"
"No, I don't think anyone will be interested, although we are mercenaries who only take commissions, but we support ourselves and don't need this windfall. Neil also stepped forward and said firmly, I looked at the others, and there was no sign of greed, and my companions did not disappoint me!
"Well, well, since you want to be a mercenary like this forever, I won't bother you, and there will be a while, I really can't imagine that my brother will make friends with you people who are not enlightened!" Haman said in a huff, and quietly walked downstairs with her maid to the side door of Mr. Daken's mansion.
I looked at the figure of this woman, and I was speechless for a while, I didn't expect that the woman who was related to Xiujie and Lawrence was this kind of person, she was no longer a beautiful and mature woman in my eyes, but a ruthless person who would do anything to keep her family status and power, and anyone who had a negative impact on her family would be eliminated, alas, it seems that Lucy's words are true!
"I didn't expect Miss Harman to become so sleek and sophisticated, she used to be an innocent and active little girl!" said Harvey with emotion.
"People change, don't they?" Link said thoughtfully, clasping his hands over his chest, as if thinking of his Tina... (To be continued.) )
