dotingly kissed his smart and clever daughter, "Arthur, it's Margaret's lackey outside, you pay more attention!" Du Chen's eyes closed, and there was no difference from the appearance of Du Si a few times before. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Arthur's eyes flashed with resentment, and he walked out with a proud face with his hands folded, and said in a low and angry voice: "Old man Junker, my friend needs to rest! Is disturbing the wounded the hospitality of the Batuk family?"

Outside the door, Junker wore a purple-gold king cannon, his face was gloomy, and the sword slave stood beside him and sneered slightly, the sword slave glanced at Arthur, "Who are you?"

"Crown Prince Reynold, Arthur!" said Arthur, who was a head taller than him, but his hands behind his back took advantage of the fact that the sword slave and Juncker were covered in advance, and quietly gestured to the boning.

The sword slave and the dragon sparrow looked at each other in surprise, it turned out that this kid was the baby who was captured with Francis back then, hmph, I have heard your rumors in recent years, but since you have not cracked the secret method of my god, but found another way to achieve today's achievements, then I don't bother to bother with you today!

Francis is our goal!

Junker said: "Crown Prince Arthur, disturbing the wounded is naturally not our Batuk family's hospitality, but using our family's thousand-year-old ceremony as a cover to take the opportunity to sneak into Borg Island to assist the Principality of Mickey in restoring the country is a way of hospitality?

Arthur arched his hand and said: "Old man, the grievances between our Renault and the town navy, my grandfather Lionheart will naturally give you an explanation, I can't be the master of this matter!" The implication is that if you have the ability to settle accounts with the Lionheart King at your level, what kind of ability is it to bully juniors?"

Juncker said coldly: "Naturally, you haven't done it, but these two are the gods and retinues of the goddess Margaret, and they are in the ......" glanced out the window at the sky that was already early in the morning, "Just yesterday afternoon to evening, I saw Francis and another person disguised as the Sea Emperor Sainz and appeared in the sky over the sea area of Borg Island! These two intercepted on the spot, but Francis escaped, so they came to my Emerald City and asked me to assist them!"

"This, how is this possible?" Arthur looked sad and indignant, "Old man, you are the patriarch who understands things, Francis was seriously injured in order to save me eight days ago, and he is still unconscious, this incident has at least tens of thousands of people witnessed with their own eyes, and the entire Emerald City knows about it!"

The sword slave's expression changed, and he said angrily: "You mean, we are talking nonsense?"

Arthur's cold eyes swept over the sword slave, "This is your understanding!"

The sword slave was furious!

At this time, Juncker waved his hand and said: "That's it, don't say a word! Sword slave senior, Prince Arthur! This is the Emerald City, you all listen to me, an old man!"

After speaking, he turned to the sword slave and said: "Sword slave senior, you and the ancestors are comrades-in-arms, I respect you and call you senior......!" This is the Emerald City where I set the rules!" He turned to Arthur and Brooke and said, "Although the Divine Envoy of Qinshui came to my old man and asked me to help her kill Francis!" However, Francis was still my Junker's guest until the truth of the matter was discovered, and he was still in the Emerald City, where I stipulated that no force should be used!"

With his hands folded, he said in a cold voice: "So Brooke Sect Master, Senior Sword Slave! You have all listened to it! My Batuk family's attitude towards this matter is--If Francis does use my family's canon, then without the need for Goddess Margaret to do it, my Thunder Army will take him down immediately! But if it turns out that Francis is innocent, then please also ask the sword slave seniors to abide by the rules of my Emerald City, and don't bring your grievances to my Emerald City! If you want to fight or kill, wait until you leave Emerald City!"

The implication is that as long as Du Chen is innocent, this old man will cover him!

The old man's voice was very loud, and Du Chen, who was on the bed, laughed secretly when he heard it, and said in his heart, this old stubborn donkey is really the temper of the donkey demon king, and he won't even give face to Qinshui Lake after recognizing a dead reason, hehe!

At the end, the old man Juncker said heavily: "This is my Emerald City, the rules are set by me!?" If you don't understand, just fucking get out of the Emerald City, the stubborn old man is really domineering!

Du Chen's side was naturally happy to accept this rule, and the sword slave thought about it, and stomped his feet to stop talking nonsense!

Qinshui Lake is not afraid of the Emerald City, and is even far stronger than the Emerald City! However, the five families of the Fallen God are of the same origin, and a war against one is equivalent to a war against the five families at the same time, and the five families of the Fallen God are not a big triangle navy that the sword slave dares to lose his temper at will! This is something that the sword slave has to consider! And in any case, the ancestors of the people have a life-saving grace for the sword slave, and she has to give some face!

After clarifying his attitude, Juncker said with a pleasant face: "If you want to make things clear, you must have Francis confronted personally." But he is still unconscious, for the sake of justice, I ask Sect Master Brooke to let me, the old man, go in alone to see the true situation of your young master - these days, the little princess Beibei has not allowed anyone to visit Francis, which is indeed suspicious!"

The deboner, who had already seen Arthur's gesture, snorted, "Old man, for the sake of the reputation of our Duchen God Sect, please! We trust you and believe in the rules of your Emerald City!"

Juncker nodded with a smile, crunched, and pushed open the mahogany door of the ward, and there was a sad scene in front of him......

Du Chen was lying on the bed, his face was pale, and there was almost no trace of blood - this was not pretending at all, he was originally injured like this. And little Beibei was crying beside the bed, holding a cotton swab and gently dipping it in water, moistening his father's lips, while Andy was lying on the side dejectedly, only Alex still had the same cold appearance......

Walked in alone, leaving behind the helpless sword slave and dragon sparrow, and after a while, Junker paced out, expressionless.

"Old man, I saw with my own eyes, Francis was indeed seriously injured - his internal organs were concussed, and his seven orifices were bleeding, and it was definitely not a pretended illness! This has been certain! Otherwise, when Francis wakes up, we will confront each other in the Linglong Hall, before that, the people of the Duchen God Sect are not allowed to leave the Emerald City, but the people of Qinshui Lake are not allowed to do anything that violates the rules of my Emerald City, understand!"

......

After saying that, the old man turned around and left, and Brooke and Arthur sneered at the sword slave and dragon sparrow who lived next to them!

Juncker turned a few corners in the hallway, and suddenly waved his hand back to his entourage, and followed, and out of the various rooms came more than a dozen young men of the Batuk family, and Anne was also - remember the method of the Batuk family to test the next generation? This is another test!

Anne seems to have lost weight and looks a little haggard, but after coming to her grandfather's side, she looks like a strong woman in high spirits, with an elegant smile full of confidence!

Juncker led his grandsons to walk to the top of the Linglong Pagoda, "Tell me, what do you think about the matter of Qinshui Lake and the Duchen Divine Sect?"

Immediately, a young man said: "Grandpa, you said that the rules of the Emerald City are the root of our Batuk family's pride for thousands of years! Therefore, my grandson thinks that this matter must be investigated, and if it is Francis who uses my family's ceremony, he must be punished! Conversely, if it is Qinshui Lake's lie, and if we want to use us to deal with Francis, then we must also protest!"

As soon as these words came out, several people, including Anne, gave him strange looks!

Juncker said slowly: "Angola, you can go back and rest! Tomorrow, the ceremonial operation of the ceremony will be handed over to you, and you will be ready to work!"

Angola was stunned for a moment, grandpa's meaning is obvious, you are only worthy of doing some ceremonial things in the future, big things...... It's none of your business!

The boys looked at him with joy or amusement, but no one sympathized with him—the loser, the outcast of the competition, was never sympathetic to Batuk's house!

Only Anne sighed slightly. Brother Angola, you are relieved...... Sister, when will I be free?

It's a pity that grandpa's eyes are like torches, and my sister doesn't dare to tell lies under severe punishment, otherwise......

Juncker walked silently in front, the corridor was quiet, only the sound of 'dong dong' footsteps, and the inexplicable pressure made no one dare to take the lead in the teenagers. Juncker frowned, and said by name: "Angus, do you know what your seventh brother is wrong?"

Annie's third brother Angus hurriedly responded: "Grandpa, the seventh brother didn't understand what the rules of the Emerald City really meant!"

Junker nodded slightly, and Angus's heart seemed to have let go of a thousand heavy burdens, and then he dared to say aloud: "In fact, over the past thousand years, our family has set no less than hundreds of rules, and the current rule is that the Emerald City shall not use force! But there is only one core of these rules, or in other words, there is only one rule that has remained unchanged in the Emerald City for thousands of years -- maximizing the interests of the family!"

Secretly glancing at his grandfather's slightly stretched back, Angus was a little bigger, and his smile was more calm, "Qinshui Lake is very strong, but our five families of the Fallen Gods have a real offensive and defensive alliance that is different from that of the Sea Emperor Sainz! Once Qinshui Lake is hostile to us, the five of us will put aside all barriers and join hands to resist the enemy! Moreover, being the enemy of the five families of the Fallen Gods is not in line with the fundamental interests of Qinshui Lake! Therefore, the threat of Qinshui Lake is assessed as the word 'ethereal' in my family's intelligence system! And the Duchen God Sect ...... It is far weaker than Qinshui Lake, but today my grandson noticed that Francis's apprentice, Goth, the little prince of the Great Triangle Sea, is missing......"

Juncker smiled, "Angus, you go back and rest!"

Angus was taken aback, was he wrong?

Junker's second half of the sentence was, "Early tomorrow morning, lead a thousand thunder troops to the cliffs of the northern sea to assist your third uncle in investigating that cave!"

Angus ecstasy, military power, ha, he passed the test of his grandfather and was given military power!

He clenched his fists and left excitedly! Juncker called another name, "Annie, continue your third brother's words!"

"Yes, grandpa!" Anne's heart tightened, adjusted her thoughts slightly, and said with a smile: "Goth's disappearance means that the Great Triangle Navy may have moved......! So at this moment, the threat of the Duchen God Sect to us is the Great Triangle Navy at our doorstep, as well as the Renault fleet!"

Smiled quietly, "Grandpa, now it is the ethereal and powerful threat of Qinshui Lake, and the weak but realistic threat of the Du Chen God Sect coexists, our Batuk family is in it, the situation is confusing, it is difficult to weigh the side of help to maximize the interests of the family!

Juncker smiled, smiling sincerely, "Yes, in Grandpa's eyes, the two of them are a balanced balance at the moment, and Grandpa will wait for this balance to tilt, and then decide the family's 'rules' according to the angle of inclination!"

He turned around and patted Anne on the shoulder, full of the kindness of the elders, "When the Lionheart King duel against the town navy a while ago, you controlled the situation in the sea south of the Emerald City very well! From tomorrow, follow Grandpa, grandpa, some small things will be handed over to you to do!"

In the eyes of the young men who were almost crazy with jealousy, Anne smiled obediently: "Grandpa is not old, now that the demon clan has reappeared, you have not yet established a great cause comparable to the ancestors, how can you say that you are old?!"

Juncker let out a long laugh, and only then did he look like a kind grandfather.

But Anne's heart is slowly sinking......

Follow Grandpa...... Then you need to be careful everywhere, and your own last, that little to pitiful freedom...... No more!

Juncker's smile suddenly disappeared and he asked, "Annie, are you still thinking about Francis?"

Anne was startled and hurriedly shook her head, "Grandpa, what are you kidding? Anne is now proficient in mental power, and those memories that have been manipulated have long been dealt with......

Juncker became expressionless, walked to the corridor leading to Linglong Hall with his hands behind his back, carried Anne and the descendants, and lightly dropped a sentence, "Anne, tomorrow morning at five o'clock, report to my study!"

......

In the bedroom, Du Chen did not 'wake up' after Jian Nu and Junker left, but continued to pretend to be sick - he would not be stupid enough to 'wake up' at this time, it was too coincidental in terms of time, and it would inevitably leave people with suspicions!

It wasn't until noon on the second day that the sword slave next door heard Xiao Beibei's cry of joy, "Dad finally woke up, woo, Beibei is almost worried to death!"

The sword slave wanted to go to Francis, but was stopped by the people of the Batuk family, the person who blocked him was the general of the Thunder Army, and he didn't say anything, just coldly smacked the Thunder Halberd in his hand in front of Du Chen's door. Although the sword slave was angry, but yesterday Juncker had already made her attitude clear, and she couldn't help it!

Who called the Batuk family not the Great Triangle Navy that she could call at will?

Knowing that the sword slave was deflated, Du Chen was amused and secretly frightened by the hidden strength of the Batuke family, which actually made the Qinshui Divine Envoy, who had always been flamboyant and domineering, feel jealous......

But now, the stronger the Batuk family, the better it is for itself!

After Du Chen woke up, he was 'seriously injured and had difficulty moving', until night fell, he breathed for a long time, and barely recovered some of his spirits!

To Du Chen's surprise, Anne actually followed Juncker's side!

After the simple etiquette, Du Chen looked at the sword slave and the dragon bird with an aggrieved face and told the truth, but as soon as he heard that Xue Ji was missing, he flickered in his heart, and the expression on his face almost changed suddenly!

“...... Prince Juncker, this is how things happened!And you know about the dragon sparrow's abilities, could she still be wrong?" the sword slave quickly finished the whole process and stared at Du Chen with cold eyes.

Du Chen sat on the sick chair, thinking about Xue Ji in his heart, but said aggrievedly: "Old man Junker, I was seriously injured to save Arthur eight days ago, and I have been in a coma until now, you have seen this with your own eyes......! I have made a fighting oath in the honor of my god, I Francis have never done what the sword slave predecessors said, if I did, let me be a duke and a god envoy on the streets, and become a thief of chickens and dogs!"

What a vicious oath! thought to the gods who believed in the oath of the god of fighting as the supreme creed. It is a great shame that the Duke's divine envoy has been reduced to living by being a thief!

A certain thief is righteous and awe-inspiring, with a sad and indignant face!

Brooke's face was cold, and he said unhappily: "Young Master, why did you make such a 'vicious' oath? You are seriously injured and unconscious, and it is impossible for you to do those things - there are tens of thousands of witnesses to this matter! What the envoys of the Qin Water God said...... How many witnesses do you have?"

"What do you two mean is that we deliberately made up lies to deceive Prince Junker in order to catch you under the rules of the Batuk family?"

Arthur said lightly: "Thank you for reminding us, we really didn't expect this possibility!"

"You !!" the dragon sparrow was furious, and its wings immediately opened!

As soon as the two sides came up, the anger was not small!

At this time, Juncker smiled and said: "Today is to reason, not to compete in martial arts! Sword slave senior, since Francis presented evidence and made such a vicious oath, and Prince Arthur even said a reasonable possible situation, how do you justify?"

The sword slave was stunned, yes, there are many witnesses for Francis here, but what he did yesterday happened in the sky, and only the sea clan faintly saw a shadow......

Her heart moved, and she said hurriedly: "A formation in the Great Triangle Navy has seen the Pamir, the guardian divine beast of the Du Chenshen Sect, appear in the sky with their own eyes!"

Du Chen raised his hand, "Who saw Pamir? Tell him to come out and testify, damn it, my god's divine favor is obviously fighting against demons for humans in the labyrinth of life! God, aren't you framing me enough, do you want to frame my god!?"

The color immediately changed, "Which big triangle navy called him out!" Hmph, I just hope that the two divine envoys will come up with a few witnesses of sufficient weight, if it is just a few small soldiers, then we can also find a few small soldiers at random to correct you for colluding with the demons!"

The soldiers are not qualified enough to be witnesses, and the generals are qualified enough...... Who would dare to testify that Francis is their future emperor!

Today, Anne found out that Goth was missing, and one of the things that the little prince went to do was to make up for Du Chen, and it was said that the loophole created by Xue Ji's consideration was gone!

The sword slave is also a human spirit who has lived for thousands of years, although she is not too smart, but the experience she has accumulated for a long time tells her that she can no longer be entangled in Pamir, otherwise she will definitely be unlucky in the end!

Thinking of this, the sword slave said again: "Prince Juncker, there is another possibility, it is Francis who found a disguise master and impersonated him in the Emerald City! and he and another disguise master went to pretend to be the Sea Emperor and help Mickey restore the country - I have no direct evidence for this possibility, but there is a corroboration of evidence, that is, Sainz, who died in the battle on the 7th, appeared on Borg Island on the 14th, and the command was a mess, killing most of the rest of the town navy!"

Indeed, compared to those things that happened in the sky, the Sea Emperor reappeared, and commanded the army to be defeated, this incident was witnessed by hundreds of thousands of people, and the intelligence network of the Batuke family has naturally learned that Du Chen has no way to erase it!

Junker nodded, "Exactly! The reappearance of the Sea Emperor is indeed a strange thing, and the reappearance of the Sea Emperor was intercepted by the Qinshui Divine Envoy after flying into the sky, and then disappeared...... It's a pity that no one can see what is happening above the sky, Francis, what do you say"

Du Chen said innocently: "I've been in a coma, how did I know that there was another Sea Emperor? This is just your speculation, and it can't be used to convict me!"

"But there is definitely this possibility, and in this possibility, you can definitely fool everyone in the Emerald City......"

"What about the evidence?"

The two sides quarreled violently. Juncker waved his hand, "Be quiet, today is to reason, not to quarrel!"

"Sword slave senior, now you accuse Francis of deceiving all of us, and the evidence is that the Sea Emperor has reappeared! Francis, you said that the Qinshui Divine Envoy was in the way of my rules and deliberately framed you, the evidence is what I have seen with my own eyes, you have been in a coma in bed for the past few days......"

Juncker said slowly, but Anne on the side smiled bitterly in her heart.

Proof, justification, argument...... It's all a play! Grandpa is reasoning slowly and logically, and he is also making a play!

Alas!

I'm not interested in listening, he won't make a 'just' ruling until the scales in Grandpa's heart are tilted......

Anne was thinking about it when her aunt Betty rushed in from outside, "Father, the Triangle Navy has sent someone to deliver an invitation......

Juncker said unhappily: "Hmph, don't you see that I'm dealing with things? You can make your own decisions about treats and gifts!"

Betty shrunk her neck, "But...... There is also a military exercise plan attached to it, and the Grand Triangle Navy, the Renault fleet, and the newly founded Duchy of Mickey will hold military exercises at our doorstep!"

"What!?" Juncker snapped, his hawk-like eyes staring at Arthur, "Your Royal Highness, your navy and the town navy are clashing at my doorstep, and I will consult with King Lionheart about this matter!

Arthur was slightly stunned, he really didn't know about this matter - he had been by Du Chen's side since Du Chen came back!

"Old man, I don't know about this! Mrs. Betty, who is the initiator of the military exercise? Without my order, they would not dare to make a sudden military exercise if they eat the gall of the leopard!"

Betty said: "It was proposed by the Great Triangle Navy!"

Juncker suddenly thought to himself, oh, it turned out that Francis used his apprentice Goethe to cast chips on his own scales!

But Francis, you are wrong, you didn't increase the chips so much! Hmph, if my Batuk family tolerates military exercises at the doorstep, won't it be a loss of prestige in the future!?

Thinking of this, Junker's gaze turned coldly to Du Chen, and he was about to start helping Qinshui Lake......

Keenly feeling the change in the old man's gaze, Du Chen cried out in his heart, who did it!? Isn't this another stimulation of the old stubborn donkey and trouble Lao Tzu?

At this moment, a thin middle-aged man walked in politely outside, knocked on the door, and waited for Juncker to allow before he said: "Father, Queen Leah of the Duchy of Mickey has sent a diplomatic letter, asking to see your old man!

Queen, the word 'meet-you-go' was used......

Juncker's angry heart suddenly relaxed, and the old man was suddenly startled!

Hmph! My emotions have been toyed with between applause!

First used the military exercise to add chips to Francis, and also aroused his anger! and then used the foreign visit to calm his anger and dissipate his anger, but Francis did add a bargaining chip......

Could it all be the work of that Queen Leah?

Junker's mind came up with a piece of information five years ago, when the Principality of Mickey had not yet died: Hilmelia, the little princess of the Principality of Mickey, joined politics at the age of seven, and was in charge of the power of the northern sea of Mickey at the age of fourteen, and is a rare genius among the descendants of Mickey Goddess for thousands of years, and the possibility of inheriting the throne in the future is extremely high, so it is recommended to make friends as soon as possible!

Juncker smiled coldly in his heart, this little girl is a fierce rival!" "Everyone, there is a queen visiting the Emerald City, I really can't help but greet the old man in person, forgive me, today's matter will come to an end first!"

The sword slave was a little reluctant, but he also admitted it, this is something that cannot be helped, after all, the Batuk family can't lose etiquette in front of a queen - their family pays the most attention to etiquette!

However, the sword slave still said: "Prince Juncker, we suspect that Queen Mickey and Francis are in a group, and we ask to accompany you to meet you and see for yourself!"

"Hmph, since the envoys are not at ease, then I am willing to accompany them!" Du Chen responded, but he was thinking in his heart...... Leah?

Wasn't it Potter who took the throne?

......
