Edward II looked at the man who came out of the crowd. Temporal

He is not tall, with small triangular ears and obvious dark circles, as if he has not closed his eyes for several days and nights, but his mental head looks quite good, and a pair of small eyes are very flexible, and they keep turning.

"Who are you?"

"I'm ...... Baron, from the Piper family, and everyone who knows me in Lionheart Castle calls me Little Ear." The visitor saluted respectfully as he spoke.

"The Piper family, whose vassals are that?"

"No, we don't work for any family, because we're not nobles anymore."

"Your ancestors defeated my ancestors, took possession of our land, and rewarded them to their vassals, but we descendants do not resent you or your family.

"Your ancestors were righteous, and that was more than nine hundred years ago, and we found a new way to make a living, and now I beg for food in Lionheart by collecting and selling other people's secrets." Temporal

"Oh, so you're a nasty intelligence monger."

"You can say that," Little Ears laughed, "but I've always been proud of my craft, I'm probably the best informant in all of Lionheart, and my guests are happy with me."

"And now you're accusing Ser Ilea and Brian of having a monetary deal before the joust, what, did Ilea pay Brian to lose to him?"

"On the contrary, it was Lord Brian who paid for Ser Ilea to defeat him."

As soon as Little Ear's words came out, everyone present was stunned, and after a while, the sound of scolding sounded, because Little Ear's words sounded too ridiculous.

The crow stopped pretending to be unconscious at this time, and scolded together, "Are you lying, when I am a fool, spend money to buy myself to lose?!"

Little Ear didn't have the slightest fluster, still smiling. Temporal

"You're not stupid, of course, but you know that Sir Ilea is so powerful that you can't beat her, and you're afraid you'll die at her hands like the rest of your opponents, or be crippled in some way.

"But because you care about your family's reputation, you can't admit defeat immediately, so you have come up with this way to pay Sir Ilea to show mercy to your men."

After speaking, Little Ear turned behind him and said to the rest of the audience, "You have also seen that Sir Elia used that little pipe in the previous four games, but she didn't use it in this competition, isn't it strange?"

As soon as he reminded them, the onlookers began to waver, and the scolding became much quieter, and more and more people turned their suspicious eyes to the female lord.

But Miss Rabbit didn't defend herself, she just stood there with her arms crossed, looking coldly at Little Ear.

On the contrary, the crow became more and more panicked, and he guessed that there might be a conspiracy behind the thin man's willingness to pay for him to buy peace, but he thought that the conspiracy was only against Ilea.

He felt that he had a family behind him, and the other side should not provoke him, but he didn't expect the person behind the thin man to be so ruthless, did he not hesitate to destroy him too? Temporal

The crow now regrets that he shouldn't have listened to the thin man and sent money to Iria.

Edward II snorted coldly, "Interesting, don't you sell intelligence for a living, but I didn't spend money to buy information from you, why did you reveal this secret?"

"Ireya won't talk about it, she's not from the royal capital, but aren't you afraid that the family behind Brian will make trouble for you."

"Even if you are an intelligence peddler, you have a sense of justice." "I don't want the championship to end up in a dishonest person, and this is Lionheart, your city.

"I'm sure you'll protect me when I expose the filthy side of those nobles."

He said this very well, not only touting Edward II, but also finding a strong backer for himself, so that he could sit back and relax in the royal capital from now on.

With his little ear's understanding of Edward II, even if the latter did not like him very well, in order to ensure the majesty of the monarch, he would not be allowed to encounter him next

What an accident. Temporal

Who knew that Edward II just looked at him with a playful look when he heard this, "Where did your news come from?"

Little Ear was stunned, but he didn't expect that the emperor would not pay attention to Ilea's private transaction with Raven at the first time, but his source.

After a few moments, he continued, "The most important thing in our business is to be trustworthy and follow the rules, and according to the rules, I can't tell you where the news is coming from."

"But I can vouch for the authenticity of the news, and if you don't believe me, you can search for the parcels of Sir Ilea and her entourage, and I'm sure you'll find the money, and I can even tell you the amount, it'......

"It's four thousand golden lions." Edward II helped him finish his words.

"You've ...... Got it?" A bad feeling rose in Little Ear's heart, and it was clear that things were not going the same way he had imagined.

Instead of answering his question, the Emperor asked rhetorically, "Do you know what happens when commoners slander nobles?" Temporal

The feeling of unhappiness in Little Ear's heart grew stronger and stronger, and he barely squeezed out a smile, "If I remember correctly, it seems that I am going to be whipped."

"That's right, a hundred lashes, which may be executed by the slandered person himself or by a designated person." Duren, the chief of the guard, said expressionlessly.

"Get the stuff out." Edward II then commanded.

So Durham had a small box taken out, which contained ten bags of gold coins and an IOU.

"Ser Ilea told me about it before the tournament began." The emperor said lightly.

"My chief of the Imperial Guard, as well as the priest of Cornelia, can testify to this, and Ilea also said that someone wants to frame her, so I will let her take the opportunity to see who intends to do this, no, you will send it yourself."

Little Ear was completely dumbfounded when she heard this, and then Ilea on the side turned around and asked, "Wait a minute, which of you will help me up?" Temporal

"I'll come," Thomas volunteered, "and I'll kill him with forty lashes."

"Then you can't, you still have to practice." Graymane shook his head, "I can do it with less than thirty lashes."

"Twenty lashes." The wandering knight Orwell also joined the fray, "There is no place in the Empire of Executions that can compare to the Fallen Star Islands, where I have traveled and learned from the best executioners on the island, and twenty lashes are enough."

Little Ear's face was bloodless with fright, and he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, maybe Sir Ilea really confessed to you in advance, but it is also true that she acted with Lord Brian in the tournament, which violates the principle of fairness in the tournament."

"You're wrong." The female lord smiled slightly, "Acting is someone acting, but only Brian himself is acting, I didn't act, I just fought normally, just because the opponent was too weak to use the hand of judgment."

"Huh?" Little Ear was stunned again, he recalled the battle just now, and found that Ilea really didn't play with the crow, just stood there and watched the crow wander there by himself.

As soon as her opponent approached, she summoned a thunderbolt to greet the crow, and she beckoned it several times until she completely stunned the crow. Temporal
