Chapter 1140: Escape from the National Capital

His father's arrangement, Farshidehou never took it to heart. If I had obeyed everything, I am afraid that I would have lived to this age a long time ago. That very human father always thinks that everyone is as reckless as he is. As a son, my heart is very tired.

Shook the small bell on the desk. The crisp sound of the bell, under the effect of magic, resonated with another bell in the waiting room outside the study. The deacons waiting here knew that their young master had summoned them, so they pushed the door and entered without notice.

"Call the groom in charge of the stables, all three."

Hearing Falshidehou's command, the deacons looked solemn, and in an instant they understood the seriousness of the matter. They all bowed, and without waiting for more instructions, they went their separate ways to make arrangements, leaving only the two closest people in the study.

After a while, the unkempt three grooms were called into the study. The original cramped and uneasy, cowering appearance disappeared the moment the door of the study was closed. Instead, the three of them had six eyes blooming with fine light, looking at the middle-aged nobleman in front of them who seemed to be gentle and elegant, but actually contained tyrannical power.

"There is a batch of horses from the family's territory to be sent to the imperial capital, and there are not only high-quality stallions, but also good horses that have been added after the number of horses reduced by the original duke's guard. After arriving in the Imperial Capital, it can be used as a gift and to supplement the needs of the Duke's Palace guards. This is important, so I want the three of you to return to the territory and receive the horses. At that time, the knights of the guard will accompany you to escort these horses to the imperial capital, and everything will be arranged by them. Your job is to take care of the horses. ”

Beginning with this sentence, Farshidehou explained various matters in great detail, as well as instructed the deacon who remained to give gifts. At first glance, the conversation sounds like that of a qualified heir to a family, who picks up the gaps after the head of the family has made a decision, helps his father to tie up his relationships with other nobles, and tries to win people over.

But in fact, as soon as the three grooms entered the study and closed the door, the two deacons began to take off the clothes of the Marquis of Farshid. At the same time, two grooms took off the clothes of the third groom, and neatly exchanged the clothes of the Marquis and the groom, and then dressed the Marquis in the same unkempt costume.

After the original groom was groomed, under the careful care of the two deacons, he seemed to have the style of a nobleman, and even his appearance was seven or eight points similar to that of the Marquis of Farshid. If it weren't for someone close to him, and he was always paying attention, I am afraid it would be difficult to notice that this marquis has changed people.

When the other two grooms grabbed a handful of dust from their bags and slapped it on the marquis's face like a puff, the exchange of roles between master and servant came to an end.

It was certain that the voices in the study would be monitored, so the two people who exchanged identities did not dare to shout loudly. They gave each other a hug, and the Marquis of Farshid, dressed as a groom, whispered in the ear of the stand-in: "Big brother, everything will be left to you next." ”

"Needless to say, the most important thing is that you come back alive. The old man is too impulsive, and someone has to take charge of the calm role. The embraced groom is the same whisper.

The substitute for the marquis's eldest brother is actually the illegitimate son of the old duke. The two have lived together since they were children, received the same education, and have the same treatment. Only when he became an adult, because of his mother's different status, one became the first heir to the throne of the Grand Duke, and the other could only stay in the stable, becoming a stand-in who would be used at some point.

Such a situation is not uncommon in the families of the great nobles. In order to protect the dignitaries in the family, they will select stand-ins from their brothers and sisters, and hide themselves in the name of death. In addition to being used as a stand-in to confuse the enemy, at the extreme, after the family dignitaries were unfortunately assassinated, the stand-in turned into a normal and came forward to maintain the stability of the family and fight the enemy.

Sometimes the status of the stand-in and the person is reversed, but this situation is little known to outsiders. After all, it's all family blood, and it's a matter of course to let better people take the position. This will also put pressure on the ontology of the real brand, knowing that he is not an indispensable family member, and it is naturally impossible to become a trouser brother who does not learn and has no skills.

But one is in the light, the other is in the dark, and the relationship between the stand-in and the ontology is not entirely harmonious. There are also families that have civil strife as a result. But in Kaveh's house, it may be that the old man is too uneasy, and the relationship between his children is very harmonious. After all, if you don't hold a group, you may be killed by the old man. Here's an example.

Because of the sudden move of the head of the family, both the stand-in and the body are in danger. Then finding a way to protect the body and flee in the direction that seems to have a way to survive is the best choice.

The two exchanged identities to give the Marquis a chance to escape, which was also a retreat that had been prepared for a long time. Now in operation, all arrangements look very reasonable. Except that the Marquis did not realize that he was in danger, the Duke's Palace went on as usual.

The Marquis of Farshid, dressed as a groom, was also led by the other two to return to the residence of the servants and pack his bags. It was just past noon, and the servant, as ordered, went out from the Duke's palace without being conspicuous. The Marquis of Farshid and two other protectors, also disguised as grooms, simply packed up their things and left unhurriedly.

With such a disguise, they also know that it is impossible to deceive for long. But as long as you leave the gate of the imperial capital first, there will naturally be other places to connect with the manor or village or town outside, and you can change to a fast horse and leave quickly. And now they can only pretend to be dutiful servants, with two legs, and quickly handle the explanation from the family.

The three people who walked on the road didn't get too many side glances. In fact, in the capital of this vast empire, there are countless people at the bottom who are begging for a living.

But in fact, when they left the ducal palace, they found several secret sentinels. Who arranged it, it is not clear. Thankfully, no one followed. It seems that the deception tactics of camouflage have been successful. So the three of them were not in love or proud, but left quickly with their heads down.

At the same time, a report was sent to the emperor's personal guards. The red envelope represents urgency, or news that the emperor is concerned about, and needs to be reported in time. Hidden in the court, the transcendents who had served several emperors, like a recruit in the Guards Legion, would respectfully send the red seal report to the emperor's study, and another attendant, who was also his predecessor, would pass it on to the emperor.

The old emperor, whose energy was not as good as before, rubbed his dazed eyes before opening this report. He never doubted that the old dog's teeth were quite strong, and he could tear off a piece of meat from anyone he bit on him. But this time it was the prime minister of the empire who bitten, and he actually took out the blood flag to swagger, which made the old emperor want to bite the old dog with a mouthful!

But when he finished reading the report, everything on the emperor's imperial case was in close contact with the wall or the floor. Regardless of whether the things are precious or not, or the things that you are used to cherishing, there are few things that can be kept intact. The table was swept away and clean.

The old man hadn't yelled for a long time. The previous time, when there was this sound that spread throughout the court, I don't know how many heads fell to the ground. Now that he heard the sound again, all the people in the palace, whether they were in front of the palace or not, fell to the ground and trembled.
