039. Noble Council

Wait until Carol is in full control of the situation, and Mrs. Meghan speaks.

"Just now President Deerland said that if he could not find the smuggled gold, he would be willing to bear the responsibility for slander, and now let me ask him, where is the gold hidden?"

Deerland tried his best to deny it, but Mrs. Meghan couldn't listen to it, so she first gagged him, and then called the spy who had ambushed the Pavi Chamber of Commerce, and the two approached Torrean and said some secret words.

Torreen's expression changed dramatically, but Bran couldn't see it, but he knew exactly what was going to happen, and then took the archbishop to the warehouse where the real gold icon was hidden, where the coat of arms of the Pavey family still hung there. There are also heretical idols and scriptures inside.

Mrs. Meghan will not give Dearland a chance to explain, Carol will hang the sword around the neck of Deerland's men, and will make them confess to the smuggling operation one by one, and then things will be easy to do, Dearland smuggled the gold icon and desecrated the church, so all the gold was given to Torrean to ask for forgiveness.

And Mrs. Meghan will blame the previous land trade losses on the sneak attack of the Dearland bandits, so Dearland must compensate so that Mrs. Meghan has no loss, and at the same time, she will also call a noble council to try Dearland's crimes...... As for the church embezzlement, the documents were all replaced by the Pavey family's guilt (the sword was pressed against the neck, forcing people to write it).

Bran's carriage was always a few hundred meters away as a spectator, and there were no accidents, all according to Mrs. Meghan's plan.

That night, Deerland was arrested and imprisoned by the nobles, while Mrs. Meghan spent the night calling for an "impromptu meeting" to let all the councillors enter the Merchandiser of Meath.

It wasn't until the wee hours of the morning that seventy percent of the councillors who were still in Meath City were brought in, and that was enough.

Including the alternate members, the first floor was filled with most of the seats, and the private guards and Teutonic mercenaries who maintained order were close to eighty people, and the commercial hall was surrounded to death.

At the same time, the city began to attack the Pavi Chamber of Commerce, many dignitaries were inexplicably arrested, the house was set on fire, and messages were scattered in the city.

After sunset, the city gates were closed, and civilians and even merchants were not allowed to move around at will to avoid crimes. The civilians secretly looked out the window and saw a number of riders riding back and forth with torches......

The large commercial hall on the sixth floor is held on the first floor, and the second to sixth floors are used for different purposes.

At this time, Lady Meghan, with the help of her servants, put on an off-the-shoulder gown studded with small pearls, draped in velvet, rearranged her hair, and helped his servants, both men and women, who had been selected to look good, and her pomp was as close to that of the little queen.

After that, she became the new queen of Florence.

After finishing her make-up, she walked up to the consul's office on the third floor for a long talk with Archbishop Torrean.

Torrean was under house arrest and could not leave, and after waiting for more than an hour, he couldn't suppress the anger on his face when he saw the comer—but a merchant dressed in the skin of nobility dared to persecute the Servant of God like this!

The two made eye contact, and when Torrean was about to speak, Mrs. Meghan threw out some land papers and jewelry boxes to soothe her anger.

"Simply put, I'm going to hang Deerland."

"Impossible!"

"I can't refuse my price, it's enough to get you back to Rome and get closer to God......"

The two began to bargain.

Mrs. Meghan wants to hang an important member of the Pavey family on the pagan charge of smuggling and destroying the icon. But the archbishop felt that it was too cruel, or that he was not satisfied with Mrs. Meghan's conditions.

He needs more help to return to Rome, and Mrs. Meghan is still short of the money promised.

As for the councillors on the first floor, when they were invited, they were not allowed to go out again, and all the needs were to be told to the servants to go outside and bring them in.

Carol sat in the auditorium in brand new leather armor, he didn't care about everyone's gaze, took off his mask, and pulled out the knight's sword to wipe it.

The wounded murderous face, coupled with the shiny sword body, flashed and flickered, giving the parliamentarians an invisible pressure, that if they were cut from the neck, they were afraid that they would spray bright red.

There were many people, but they were ten times quieter than usual, and the nobles in attendance no longer showed off their lovers or jewels and silks they had recently bought.

The cold and stuffy environment made them sweat, and everyone wanted to get out alive.

Bran walked with Albert to the high platform on the sixth floor, overlooking the city, blowing the night breeze, followed by Iron Mountain and four mercenaries, because it was the middle of the night, the vision was dim, and his men were holding torches to illuminate the surroundings.

Albert had just cried with red eyes, and an hour earlier he had seen his uncle's miserable appearance from prison, and his uncle was crying out for Albert to help him.

Once, when Albert played with his uncle, he didn't push half a point away with all his might, but now, his uncle looked so weak and terrible that he even looked at himself trembling......

Bran was in a different mood, he looked down from the heights, carefully admired the city of Meate, watched the underground torches fly back and forth like fireflies, all held by the Quake family and the Teutonic Regiment, and at this moment, he felt that he was the victor, the king of the night, the new master of the city.

Looking across from the Grand Commercial Hall, there was a tall tower on which hung two criminals who had lost their lives, sinners in the city of Meath, and sometimes in this way they were displayed in front of people, so that the people could fear and avoid making mistakes.

"Bran, Bran...... Let's find my grandmother again. ”

"It's useless, Madame's anger, you know, your uncle wants to steal your family's wealth, if he succeeds, you will end up on the other side, your face is blue, your body is stinking and hanging, and you don't even eat crows."

"No, uncle, he loves me very much!"

The night was too dark to see the face of the deceased on the other side, but the image and Bran's description startled Albert, and his legs suddenly went limp.

Bran pulled Albert up and said, "When the meeting is over, and everything is a foregone conclusion, and Madame is in a good mood, let us go to her again." Now, let's quietly enjoy the moonlight, the night is beautiful tonight. ”

The moonlight grew red and fell on Bran, and when their eyes met, Albert suddenly felt that Bran was both familiar and strange......

About half an hour later, someone came up to report to Bran that Mrs. Meghan had negotiated with the archbishop and was about to preside over the meeting, and Bran and Albert covered their faces with their cloaks, hid in the guards, and then went to the corner of the first floor to watch the meeting go on.

At the center of the hall was a seat and table for the consuls (standard-bearers of justice), and on the left and right were the nobles.

Right now, there is a vacancy in the middle, and the original consul "Senek" is sitting in the aristocratic district at the moment, or is tied up in this district.

Senek is the younger brother of the patriarch of the Pavi family, Dillan, and today he was waiting for good news in the Grand Commercial Hall, but he did not expect that in exchange for the arrest of his brother, he followed hundreds of people to attack the solemn and sturdy gate.

Senec closed the door to resist, but held out in less than two hours before being broken by Mrs. Meghan.

The gate was smashed with a hammer, and the guards guarding the large commercial hall were dragged out one by one and executed directly on the street.

The swordsman who had broken the door on his face slapped it with the hilt of his sword fiercely, swollen up, and broke four teeth.

The man who patted him, at this time stood viciously in the middle of the field, looking at the nobles with contempt - it was Iron Mountain.
