1689 In the Name of the Falcon (7)

"I heard that one of your regulars here is the Duke!" Seeing the fat man enter the room, Dustron Lunkai turned around with a hint of curiosity on his face, "This guest, you are really well-informed!" Hearing Dustrenkai's question, the middle-aged woman's face was immediately full of smiles, Dustrenkai was also born in the aristocracy, and he was ridiculous for a while, and later joined the army, and rarely frequented these fireworks lands, but it does not mean that he does not know the characteristics of these places, many people will think that it will be difficult to find a duke in the attic area, in fact, if you think that way, it is wrong, not only is it not difficult, but even extremely simple, you only need one question, you can get the answer you need, and the owners of the red light district will try their best to advertise that there are enough distinguished guests in their stores, And a duke who really owns a principality like the Duke of Putao is as dazzling as the sun, even if the owner of the red light district loses money, he will try his best to keep such a guest, whether this guest is in the Falcon Empire or not, at least this is a person who really owns the land, full strength and supreme title, which is enough to dwarf the other attics, this is like an invisible competition, in the attic is not much worse than the sword and sword shadow on the surface, in the red light district, only the best attic can attract the most noble people!

And there was such a duke's guest, Dustronkai just showed curious interest, and the middle-aged woman who led the way in front of her pointed to a room on the third floor without hesitation, "That is the room of the noble duke, the room with a sheep's head decoration on the door of the room, the most gorgeous decoration in it, can definitely give the duke a feeling of home."

As if afraid that Dustrenkai would not understand, the middle-aged woman deliberately accentuated her tone and said, "This is a duke who really owns the duchy and land, not an empty shell of the empire that only has a name! He pursed his lips with some dissatisfaction, and said, "Before the arrival of this strange duke, even most of the guests didn't know about her, just a third-rate person who served tea and water, from Salander, who used to have a child, but died of illness, it is estimated that it was because he was from Salander, so he deliberately attracted the Duke who had never been to Salander, you know." The people of Salander are always romantic and amorous, and the war at the beginning caused many Salander nobles to suffer, who dares to say that this woman will not be a descendant of a certain Salander nobleman!" "You also know about that war?" Dustrenkai looked at the middle-aged woman with a sad face, and really didn't expect an old bustard in the attic to say the same, "I am the first batch of immigrants to reach the northwest coast two years ago!" The middle-aged woman straightened her face, and said with a rare stern sù, "For the original war, although I have not seen it with my own eyes. But I have also heard that the Avengers from Salander slaughtered millions of Normans, but they also used brutal segregation methods for Salander's victimized women who were plundered because of the war. To fend for these women who have disgraced them Salander is really a coward who is inferior to the Normans, or is our Falcon Majesty humane enough"

"These women are nothing but victims of war, punishing the women of their own people for their own incompetence. What a foolish thing to do! I will always remember this sentence from the cease and desist decree issued by His Majesty of the Falcon! It was at last possible to save these poor men between Salander and Normandy, and it was evident that this woman named Aviva was one of them. Although she never mentioned her past identity and experience, at least when I met her, I could still see the petals of the rumored noblewoman of Salander!"

The middle-aged woman's face was shining, full of admiration, completely unaware that she had just recommended a massage girl to the person she admired the most, the masseuse girl did not look very good, but she was only nineteen years old, her fingers were long, her body was tall, and the massage technique was quite good, the middle-aged woman was not the kind of woman who did not know how to fish, she knew that to make a man full of desire, she first needed to relax comprehensively, and the masseuse girl also spent a lot of money to dig the corner from other attics, and after special training since childhood, she can definitely know when to let a man relax and when to make a man nervous"Now that Aviva is in the room, too!"

Dustronikai continued to ask, raising his eyebrows, he didn't care about the compliment of the Duke of Putao in the middle-aged woman's tone, in the Empire, the name of Duke has lost its original brilliance, since the unification war of the Empire, with the momentum of destroying the withering and decaying, the aristocratic layer of the Ikadiva continent has been leveled in one fell swoop, for most of the Ikadivans, the original aristocratic elite, has been divided between the merchant and military classes, and there are few people who will continue to use the obvious aristocratic title of duke, and in the eyes of the imperial ministers like Dustromkai, the duke of a small principality is really not enough"No, you're interested in Aviva too?" A trace of surprise flashed on the middle-aged woman's face, obviously misunderstood his thoughts, and looked at Dustrenkai up and down with strange eyes, which seemed to mean as if to say, quite a handsome young man, how can he take this mouthful, obviously, she thought of Dustrenkai as the kind of young man who felt that she could play with a real foreign duke's mistress, and felt extremely excited, such people are really many in the strange red light district, that is, people with more perverted hobbies, middle-aged women have also seen,

The corner of her mouth smiled, "Young man, Aviva is not in the duke's room now, although the duke spends the night here, he never leaves a woman in the room, and he has to leave after that kind of thing, but Aviva can't pick up guests now, because the guests haven't left yet, this is the rule, if you are interested, you can come during the day, I can help you arrange it, but you must pay a deposit in cash, after all, there are many people waiting to see Aviva!"

"So, the Duke is the only one in the room now?"

Dustrengke didn't have the heart to correct this, he was only secretly relieved at the moment,

It seems that this Duke of Putao is also a bit interesting, not only to be able to hide the sight of the inhuman, but also to wait for the olive branch from the Falcon Empire, it is estimated that in this gap, it is also quite difficult, and even at the expense of self-depreciation, come up with such a solution. Make a depressed look, such a person, or there is really something worthy of the empire's investment,

According to the information sent back by Salon, the Principality of Putao is at most the size of the southwestern third, but the geographical location is good, less than 200 miles away from Kyoto of the Gangfei Empire, if the empire wants to open the bottleneck of half a year of stagnation in commerce and trade, and wants to completely open up the vast market of the Gangfei Empire's economic circle, the advantage of the Putao Principality in the core area of the Gangfei coast is enough for the empire to consider such an investment. , Putao, can become the support point for imperial businessmen to squeeze into the Gangfei economic circle, so that the empire's commercial veins can go deep into Gangfei, which is not much smaller than the imperial market, without hindrance.

In addition to appreciating this construction of Salon, Dustrenkai was also a little surprised, this butcher who had always been accustomed to killing, and the fierce and murderous style of the Imperial Legion, actually served as the governor of the southwest. Immediately began to think about something more far-reaching, and the feeling was as strange as that of a butcher who had been a knife and was interested in discussing the language of beautiful poetry. Most importantly, the butcher's poems suddenly became more cautious even to the most studied scholars, "Lord Duke, may I come in?" Dustrenke came to the door of the duke's room. He knocked on the door with his hand, and there was a stirring sound from inside, and it seemed that the Duke of Putao was not sleeping inside, and a slightly hoarse voice came from inside, "I am a servant." My master has a little deal to talk to the duke!" Dustronchai replied, "Servant?" The door was opened from the inside, revealing a somewhat pale middle-aged man's face, his eyes looked up and down at Dustromkai, who had a natural face, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, as if he was surprised by who had such a calm servant, opened the door, and said, "Come in, Your Excellency's temperament is not like a servant, if you have to say, more like a nobleman, in such an area, it is really unexpected to meet such a person as Your Excellency!" Lord Duke is really joking, in our Falcon Empire, nobility is not a compliment!"

Dustrenkai smiled and walked into the room, although this middle-aged man was much thinner than the person on the portrait sent back by Saron, but there were still seven or eight points similar, out of caution, Dustromkai did not directly identify himself, but sat down opposite the Duke of Putao, "Lord Duke has not rested so late!"

Dustronik looked left and right, the room was indeed gorgeous, the six-meter-high arched relief fireplace was still burning, and the warm light of the fire flickered in the empty room. Through the high windows, you can see the black sky outside, and on the snow-white walls, a few squares of gold are reflected. A whole piece of Kasmal cashmere carpet with white lines on a red background covered the entire room

On the other side of the carpet, the middle-aged man was taking a bottle of red wine from a wine cabinet and walking over with two glasses, "I'm really not used to the weather here, maybe it's because it's closer to the north, and people are always reluctant to leave the warm fireplace, which makes you smile!" The middle-aged man put the cup on the table between the two, slowly poured wine into it, and asked casually, "You just said that there was a small deal, I don't know what the deal is!" "Actually, it's nothing, my master has a piece of land in the northwest, I don't know if the duke is interested!" Dustrunkai stretched out his finger with the ruby ring very casually, picked up the wine glass in front of him, and took a sip gently, the red luster made the middle-aged man who was about to pick up the wine glass stunned for a moment,

"Northwest?" The middle-aged man's eyes immediately became hot, and he almost couldn't wait to ask, "What do you mean by land?" If it's good enough, as long as I can pay, I won't hesitate, but now ......"

The middle-aged man thought of his precarious situation, his face showed a trace of hesitation and pain, and said bluntly, "My position is in danger, if you want that land, you must be able to guarantee my position!" "For my master, the duke's request is nothing!, but any transaction requires sincerity, even if it is help, we also need to know whether your Excellency is qualified or not!" Dustrunkai stood up with a smile on his lips, pretending to be unintentional and took off the ruby ring on his finger, threw it into the wine glass, and placed it on the table with a precious weight, "My lord said that the Duke will know what to do!"

"It seems that this is the case after all!"

Duke Putao looked at the wine glass a little stunned, the wine in the cup was mixed with rubies, which looked even more red as blood, until Dustronik left, Duke Putao hesitated for more than ten minutes before standing up with a solemn expression. looked at the black canopy outside the window, smiled bitterly at the corner of his mouth, and seemed to have made up some kind of determination,

"Come, get my coachman, I'm in a hurry to leave, he should be in the attic next door," called the Duke of Putau to the door, and called out to the servants outside

"Yes, Lord Duke!" said one of the servants, who quickly departed, and after ten minutes the Duke's coachman, with a sleepy face, walked in.

He is indeed in the attic next door, and the task given to him by the unhuman is to let him keep an eye on the duke's every move in the Falcon Empire, but for more than ten days in a row, he has been in the red light district full of women, and the duke always does not go out all night. For this master, who will be imprisoned immediately after returning to China, he really owes even the most basic fears.

"Lord Duke!" shouted the coachman at the door, but there was not the slightest echo inside

"What the hell. They're all dying people, and they're still putting up a fight like this!" The coachman snorted very dissatisfiedly, and pushed the door with his hand, and the door was gently pushed open a crack. The coachman's face was stunned for a moment, and suddenly turned pale, that guy won't run away. With these thoughts, the coachman pushed open the door without hesitation, the scene in front of him made him stunned for a moment, the duke was sitting on the sofa in the room neatly, with a rare calm face, glanced at the coachman who rushed in, and said indifferently, "Liluo, I haven't run yet, speaking of which, you have been with me for 3 years!"

"The little one is just afraid that something will happen to the adults, so he ......" The coachman was at a loss, standing there dumbfounded, some didn't know how to answer, the duke's calm gave him a strange feeling, as if all his secrets were exposed to the duke's faint gaze, this feeling made his body tremble slightly,

"Don't worry, you can't die, at least not yet!"

The corner of the duke's mouth sneered, stretched out his hand to his coachman, and made a gesture to sit down, "Sit down, the duke who has been angry with me for a few years has also suffered a lot, I remember that your second son is about to be born, and the delivery date is next week!"

"Yes, sir!"

The coachman looked embarrassed, didn't dare to sit down, heard the duke's eloquent talk, his heart couldn't help flashing a trace of hesitation, three years ago, he was just a street wanderer, it was the duke who saw him pitiful, let him serve as a coachman, although he also suffered a lot, but at least there was no problem with food and clothing behind the duke, he married a wife and had children, and he began to become numb from the initial touch, I don't know when, every qiē changed, or, it was from the day when the other party came to the door with an IOU for gambling debts, and the day he put the dagger against his neck.

His own master was replaced by Gangfei!

"Can you tell me, are you the first eye that Gangfei has placed beside me?" Duke Putao looked at the coachman with an ugly face, picked up the wine glass on the table, and took a sip lightly, the faint coldness melted in his lips, and down his throat, making him cough uncomfortably, but this feeling made his fingers holding the wine glass make a gurgling sound

"I ...... I don't know what you mean!" the coachman's body trembled, and his face turned dead

"Liro, there's nothing to feel guilty about, before you, my servant, my mistress, and my captain of the guard, they are all just like you!" Duke Putao smiled bitterly at the corner of his mouth, took a deep breath, and stood up from his seat, his face showing a little hideous, "From the moment I returned to the principality, the people knew very well what I was doing, and the reason why they pretended not to know anything was because they knew that I would always be under their sight, and as long as I was in the circle of influence of Gangfei, I would not do anything......"" So, please forgive me!" the Duke of Putau suddenly flipped his sleeve, revealing a short sharp dagger inside

"My lord, what are you doing here?" The coachman was completely stunned, and at this moment, the piercing cold light of the dagger shone on his somewhat pale face, with a bit of determination and ruthlessness, Duke Putao stabbed a dagger into his ribs, and the severe pain even made him suffocate for a short time, and his two eyeballs even bulged out, almost using all his strength, exhaling heavily,

Grand Duke Putao's bloodied hand let go of the handle of the dagger, red foam broke out at the corners of his mouth, and he suddenly pointed at the coachman, who had no idea what was happening, and shouted loudly with a hideous face, "Someone, catch the assassin!" and then ran out of the gate covered in blood, all the way, and the mournful shouts immediately attracted a lot of people

"What's wrong?"

"The Duke has been assassinated! I heard that the Duke's coachman did it."

Soon, the district security team arrived within ten minutes, and what they saw was Duke Putau, lying in a pool of blood, and a completely stupid "killer!"

"This time there is big trouble!" the magistrate shuddered from the scene in front of him, and his face was ugly and wanted to die, the Duke of Putao was too famous in this red light district, and everyone knew that this duke had come to the Falcon Empire to carry out foreign affairs, that is to say, a foreign affairs official of another country was assassinated in his own jurisdiction, such a fact would definitely be presented to His Majesty the Falcon

"Someone, protect the scene at once, and arrest this daring fellow!" the sheriff pointed to the coachman, and the soldiers rushed up, this is not the time to be sloppy, no one notices that in another room in the attic, a young man with a feminine appearance is calmly watching the scene

"This Duke of Putao is really ruthless enough to himself!"

Dustrunkai took a deep breath and looked calm, the sincerity of the Falcon Empire is very simple, that is, the Grand Duke of Putao must direct and act in a play about being assassinated, after all, this assassination took place in the territory of the Falcon Empire, according to the principle of the most beneficial interests, it is easy to point the main messenger behind the assassination to the inside of the Putao Principality,

Someone assassinated the envoy of another country in the territory of the empire, and under the wrath of His Majesty Falcon, the empire was able to officially intervene in the chaos of the Putao Principality in the name of investigation under the eyes of the people......!
