It's a pity that the secrecy of the internal banquet of the royal family was so perfect that Widno didn't know anything about it, and not even one of the big people present knew about it - except for Balgena and other people who participated in the banquet! It is conceivable that an emperor who cared about his reputation and claimed to be a holy king must have done it absolutely secret when he set a trap for the master of ambush and was ready to deal with a hero!

Even Godfather Ferdinand only knew that Yuna had brought Du Chen into the palace in a carriage, but he didn't know what happened after that!

Except for the small action of scratching his head, Bargener did not show too many expressions, but quietly watched Widnor's performance, but he knew in his heart that the Minister of Etiquette and Law was really an absolute master in creating unjust, false and wrongful cases, and if the creation of unjust, false and wrongful cases was also divided into the level of Fighting God, he would at least be a 9th-level high-ranking Fighting God, or even the legendary 10th-level Fighting God! Because he had used his almost perfect "manufacturing" The ability to get rid of a lot of people who are in the way, so from a legal point of view, it is absolutely impossible to find fault with Widno - after all, many of the laws now are made by Widno himself!

But everything changed because of that extremely secret royal banquet...... Balgener's heart was already in a state of collapse, should he cry or laugh? His own king had become the most powerful proof of Francis's innocence, hehe, it was really funny! But his excellent courtier was going to ...... today Widno smugly glanced at Du Chen, who was escorted by the soldiers under the judgment seat, and said aloud: "Your Majesty, your Excellency, and everyone present!" His loud and seductive language, like an orator, reached everyone's ears with the help of Dou Qi. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"To accuse a person of committing a crime, the most important thing is the following points, the time, place, motive, and most importantly - the evidence!" he motioned for several clerks to come up to assist him, and pointed at Du Chen with righteousness, "Now I will prove one by one that Francis is definitely the murderer of this noble murder, and then send him to the stake and receive the punishment he deserves!"

In the boos of the civilians, he waved his hand angrily, as if he was really angered by Du Chen's 'atrocity', straightened the crown embroidered with the balance on his head, he stared at Du Chen and shouted: "Francis! The duke who was killed last night is called Aino! On October 7 last year, Lord Aino clashed with two civilians in the northern trade area of the city, and you ordered Ariza to beat him! Afterwards, Lord Aino led people to seek revenge on you, and there was a fierce conflict with you! So, you two are enemies, this is ...... Do you admit it!?"

Before Du Chen could speak, an old man among the civilians shouted: "No, it's not a conflict, it's Aino who wants to rob my daughter, and Master Francis saved our father and daughter!"

"Thank you, old man, you have confirmed that there is a hatred between Francis and Aino!" Widno smiled happily!

"Don't talk nonsense, I don't mean that, I mean ......" Before the old man could finish speaking, he was very "polite" and invited aside by the two guards.

"Thank you again, old man who is not afraid of power, your words are so valuable, and they will be an important witness to determine Francis's crimes!" said Vednard proudly, this is one of his famous tricks, "taken out of context"!

All the civilians booed, and everyone understood what the old man said just now, or should it be said that only Widnor would understand it so well, Widno continued to speak proudly, as if the civilians were booing him as if they were applauding him, this is also his trick "pretending to be deaf and dumb"!

"Do you admit what the old man said just now? Francis, if you deny it, I will convict the old man of slandering the nobles, and I will sentence him to death!" Another famous trick "who dies and who lives"?

Weideno actually didn't care if Du Chen would admit it, if Du Chen denied it, the old man would have to die, so Du Chen's reputation would inevitably be hit hard, but if Du Chen admitted it, then ...... Du Chen smiled: "Why should I deny it, I admit it, why should I deny what I did, let the old man go immediately, what he said is the truth!"

"You admit it? You admit that you killed Lord Aino! And Lord Aino's fiancée was killed, and you are also the murderer, so the motive is to see the color!"

Seeing that Du Chen admitted the matter, Weideno continued to play the trick of "taking things out of context"!

"No, I deny it, I just admit that I had a dispute with Lord Aino years ago, and besides, I haven't seen any of Lord Aino's fiancée at all, let alone killed her!" Du Chen smiled contemptuously.

Widno was not surprised by Du Chen's denial, he smiled coldly, turned around and walked to the back of the judgment table, "Now I need you to explain, what are you doing in the early morning of September 13th!"

Du Chen looked up at His Majesty, Wideno slapped the judgment table in front of him heavily, and touched it! He said quickly: "If you can't explain this, then legally, it can't be ruled out that you killed Lord Aino in the remote Fifth Block at this time, and brutally killed his fiancée!"

"Well, the motive, the time, the place, all are there!Francis, what evidence do you have to refute it!?, but as the Minister of Etiquette, I remind you that your servants and retinues cannot be your own witnesses in law, and that when it comes to the murder of a nobleman, the slave is not qualified to testify, especially to prove his own master!

Du Chen shrugged his shoulders and didn't speak, or rather, he was just waiting to see the joke!

The clown-like Widno let out a long sigh and said sadly, "Now we can imagine that in the early morning of September 13th, you met a beautiful maiden in the Fifth Block, and were attracted by his beauty, brutally raped her, and killed her afterwards...... And, judging by the traces of the corpses, your methods are very cruel...... Then you find out that this girl is Lord Aino's fiancée...... "This is Widnor's highest trick to "create facts"!

At this time, the princes on the city tower suddenly found that Princess Yuna, who had always been dignified and calm, had a strange complexion.

Damn Widnor, you just accused your father of being of bad character, and now you're ...... Hmph, Francis did meet a beautiful aristocratic girl, but that's me, Princess Yuna!

Widnor, it's okay to create an unjust case for political purposes, but you also have to find a time to frame you! It's over, you're completely finished, no one can save you this time! Yuna looked at the situation in front of her, and suddenly her heart moved, and after whispering a few words in Bargena's ear, she disappeared into the castle tower.

Du Chen looked at the 'impartial' and 'upright' Vednor with great interest, and suddenly interrupted him, "Lord Vednor, evidence, you need to speak with evidence!"

Widno looked at Du Chen with disdain, circled around the platform, and made a full gesture in front of the onlookers, "Of course I have evidence, and it is absolutely sufficient evidence! It is evidence that you cannot refute! Because that night, there was a second-level fighter of the city guard who happened to pass by, and he happened to see the scene of your corpse after committing the murder! Fortunately, fortunately, he is the second-level fighter of the earth system who is the best at concealment, so he was not discovered by you, a third-level fighter, if it is another fighter, I believe he will definitely be killed by you!"

At the call of Widnor, a tall young man in his early twenties stepped onto the judgment seat, his face was young and immature, and he was still a little nervous, and he won the favor of everyone at once. "My name is Curry, and I swear by the honor of the god of fighting, that I have witnessed Francis's crimes, and that I am willing to tell the facts I have seen, and the full ...... of them."

In an instant, the voices of the civilians shouting for Du Chen gradually became quieter. Because this Curry was born in the slums of Nancheng and became a fighter through his own hard work, many of the poor people present knew him very well, and naturally had a lot of trust in his words!

It is easier to trust each other when facing people from the same background!

Du Chen glanced at His Majesty Balgener on the city tower, the eyes of the two intersected, and Balgener handed Du Chen an indifferent look of 'solve it by himself' - the king would never personally confirm in front of countless civilians that the minister of etiquette and law he personally appointed was creating unjust, false and wrongful cases, otherwise, where is the prestige of the imperial political axe!?Where is the people's heart!?Where is the majesty of he, the king!?

Thinking of this, Du Chen's heart sank, and he glanced at Antoine and Angels, who had just arrived at the scene, Du Chen sneered in his heart, hum, I know that you two old immortals will not take the initiative to help me clarify, you want me to beg you, so that I owe you favors, you wait, let you see today, why is the lotus so brilliant!

Witness Curry pointed at Du Chen, "That's right, the murderer is him!" Looking at Curry's young and immature face, but at this moment, he was viciously facing himself, Du Chen frowned.

Damn, His Majesty won't help for the sake of fame, at least not now!So, what should I use to refute Widnor!?

The voices of the whispering civilians in the square converged and gradually became a little harsh.

Just as Du Chen was thinking hard, a faint voice sounded among the civilians who were gradually falling silent outside the blockade line of the royal guards, "Let me pass!

An old man, stopped by the guard's spear, shouted loudly: "I am the father of the witness Curry, and I have a few words to say to my son!"

Widno was stunned for a moment, Curry's expression was panicked, and he unconsciously glanced at his top boss sitting on the judgment table, Buze, the commander of the City Guard, and Admiral Kirisek with a gloomy face!

With the permission of the royal guards, the old man threw away the cane in his hand and climbed onto the judgment seat, his angry face glaring under the cover of his gray hair.

Widno smiled and said, "This kind old man, you are a commoner, your words cannot be used as evidence for a verdict! However, you should be proud that you have such a son who is not afraid of power?!"

"Proud? I'm really proud! I'm just going to say a few words to my son! It's not a crime, is it?" The old man looked unusually calm, but terrifyingly calm, as if it were a premonition before a storm! When he came to the library, he suddenly raised his hand and slapped it in his son's face. Then he turned back to Widno and smiled: "Honorable ** officer, I don't break the law by beating my own son, right?"

Widnord's pause.

The old man's crutches were thrown under the stage, he staggered, and he caught up with his retreating son step by step, and there was another slap on the ground, and he trembled with anger, "You brute, you roll over for me!"

The third slap was slapped in Curry's face, and the old man turned around and bowed to Du Chen, who came over to support him, "Benefactor, I'm sorry for you!"

Du Chen was stunned, he really didn't have any impression of this old man, he had helped too many old civilians like this...... The old man turned around and pointed at his son, and shouted angrily, "Kneel!"

The trembling fingers kept pointing at Curry's forehead, and the old man burst into tears, and said in a trembling voice: "You are now an adult of the city guard, a fighting god, and a nobleman! I can't control you! I don't dare to let you ......step down, my lord."

"Father......" Curry was about to say something, but was immediately interrupted by another slap from the old man.

"I'm here to tell you a few things...... Last year, your father was dying of illness, but he didn't dare to tell his son who was cultivating in Berwick City, because your father was sick and hungry in a thatched hut that leaked from the wind and rain, but all the money in the family was taken out for you to go to school! No way, your seventy-year-old father barely survived by begging on the street...... But when your father was begging in the north of the city, he made a nobleman unhappy, and as a result, he was thrown into the garbage heap by four or five samurai who were stronger than you, and broke a leg alive!"

Curry was shocked, "Father, why didn't you ......"

"Shut up!" the old man was so angry that his chest rose and fell, and he coughed a few times, and then said: "At that time, there was a thunderstorm, and your father was lying in the garbage heap, covered with garbage and blood, and even the well-meaning poor people in ordinary times did not want to pay attention to him...... Do you know how your father survived!?" he raised his voice, "It was Lord Francis who carried your father on his back for three streets in the heavy rain to find the best sacrifice in Yanjing!"

Curry's mouth opened slightly, frozen in place.

"Now I'll tell you the second thing, Lord Francis, after saving your father, knew that you were in the Battlegod Trial in Ribek City, and were anxious to wait for the money to be paid...... the old man choked up and couldn't go on.

"Father, my God of Fighting Trial costs ......"

The old man interrupted him with a rude wave of his hand, and suddenly bowed deeply to Du Chen, and said in a trembling voice: "Lord Francis, my life is given by you, and my son can become a fighting god because of your funding......!" Our whole family is sorry for you!" The old man seemed to have used up his last strength, he collapsed weakly on the judgment table, Curry hurriedly ran to the old man's side, held the old man, the old man pushed Curry away with all his might, Du Chen hurriedly walked over and helped the old man up.

Du Chen supported the old man and sent him to the judgment seat, "It's okay, your son is just being used! I don't blame him, he's still too young!"

Sixteen-year-old Francis said something like this, which should have caused a lot of laughter, but no one could laugh. The civilians remembered the benefits of Du Chenping's words, and suddenly, the shouting of grievances became louder again!

"We don't believe that Lord Francis would sin!"

"Curry, you're going to be honest!"

Du Chen came to the stunned library and patted him on the shoulder, "I know, you belong to the city guard, if your boss uses military law to force you to do something, you can't refuse at all!"

Curry's mouth opened and closed, his face changing dramatically.

Widnor's mind changed rapidly, and he immediately said: "Curry fighter, your testimony is over, whether Francis has helped you in the past does not affect his crime today." You can go down!" motioned for the guard to go and take Curry away.

It seemed that at that moment, Curry seemed to have completely figured out something, he took off the city guard sword at his waist and threw it on the ground! "Commander Buze, I won't do it! I admit that you used Admiral Kirisek's promotion order to lure me into framing Lord Francis!"

Syllable!

Kirisek snapped up, "Curry, you have to think clearly before you speak!"

Curry gritted his teeth, blushed, and said angrily, "Lord Francis saved my father's life and provided me with the Fighting God Trial...... If I frame him again, I'm not even a fucking brute!" He reached into his arms and pulled out a parchment, "This is the promotion order you gave me, saying that I should accuse Master Francis and promise to promote me to the captain of the Third Brigade!"

St. Bowen Square is in an uproar!

Balgener and Ferdinand on the castle tower looked at each other, and His Majesty shook his head and sighed, thinking that the common people are ignorant and not enough to achieve great things, but sometimes, the big people will capsize in the small gutter of the commoners!

"Your Majesty, you should make up your mind, even if it's just for the sake of your prestige!" Ferdinand lowered his voice and said softly, "I will cooperate with you!"

Bargena slowly stood up, "Where are the guards of Verne!? Tie up Kirisek and escort me to the Inquisition dungeon!"

Kirisek's expression changed wildly. But at this time, his ally Widno said gloomily, "I can't imagine that Your Excellency Admiral, you have done such a thing, framed a nobleman, and you have deceived me...... Hmph, you have to be punished as you deserve!"

"You, you are ruthless!" Kirisek suddenly pressed the sword on his waist, but at this moment, Princess Yuna, who had just left, flew down on the judgment table and came to Kirisek's back, smiling beautifully, but the words she said in Kirisek's ear made the captain of the Yanjing garrison extremely cold, "Your Excellency, your military power has just been taken over by me." So, for the sake of your family, for the sake of your dignity, don't resist!"

Kirisek gritted his teeth and said in a low voice: "I am willing to expose Widno in exchange for His Majesty's forgiveness!"

Yuna shook her head, "Your Excellency still doesn't understand the current situation, to tell you the truth, Francis was attending a royal banquet in the palace last night because His Majesty canonized him as an earl!"

The Minister of Etiquette and Law followed with a frantic change in expression! But Yuna continued: "Your Excellency, you should understand, right!? In the current situation, you must use a human head to calm the anger of the people and save Your Majesty's prestige! Unfortunately, Lord Widno is a descendant of gods, and he is also a ** official who represents the justice of the laws of the empire...... So I have to sacrifice you! I'm sorry!"

Kirisek's face was suddenly dead, and Widnor, knowing that His Majesty could not be in front of the common people, publicly announced that his ** had framed someone else - so that the laws of the Empire would lose their prestige. But after that...... It's over, it's over, and maybe it's the best ending for me to fall more decently than Kirisek and leave a surname...... At this time, the voices of dissatisfaction among the civilian population were also expressed, "Damn Kirisek, he must be punished!"

"Oh my God, he dared to deceive the ** official and frame such a kind Lord Francis......"

Balgner's loud and majestic voice rang out, "My people, I am very sad today because one of my generals has done such a shameless thing! I am also responsible for this!" Balgener sighed deeply, but he thought in his heart that the best way to divert the attention of civilians was Francis! "But it is also good that a moth in the imperial political axe has been exposed, and it has been proved that Francis is worthy of the honor of St. John's virtues, and he is an example for all the officials of the empire to follow!" ”

Sure enough, as soon as Du Chen was mentioned, the civilians immediately burst into cheers.

Bargener smiled, "In addition, today I have one more thing to announce, Francis has made a great contribution to the disaster relief in the south of the Empire, and he must be rewarded as he deserves, and I declare that I will give Francis the Count of the Empire, the lord of the land of eight hundred miles along the Newin River!"

"Wow!" the voices of surprise rang out among the civilians, who saw it as a great gift, and they didn't know who started it, and gradually, the voice of "Praise Francis" grew louder and louder.

At this time, Curry, who had committed perjury, bowed his head gloomily, he knew that although he had exposed the conspiracy of the imperial generals, his future was completely ruined in the aristocratic circle...... But I don't regret it!

Curry raised his head and suddenly saw Du Chen looking at him kindly. Then, Lord Count Francis bowed to His Majesty and said aloud: "Your Majesty, I beg you, although Curry has committed perjury, he has also exposed Kirisek's conspiracy! Your demeanor as a holy king with clear rewards and punishments is well known to the world, so I beg you to give Curry the reward he deserves! And his crime ...... I am willing to forgive him as a victim, ask the Holy Church to forgive him for his sins, and I am willing to pay all the atonement for him!"

After His Majesty Balgena nodded, the cheers of the civilians reached their fullest, and gradually, the voice of "Praise Francis" changed, "Long live Lord Francis!"

This shout made Bargena frown slightly, made Du Chen's heart tremble, and hurriedly turned around and bowed to His Majesty on the city tower, and said loudly: "Thank Your Majesty for your gift, it is under your teaching that I can achieve such a small amount of credit, without you, there would be no Francis! Please allow me to praise you with everyone, Saint King Lanning, His Majesty Balgena!"

Du Chen raised his arms and shouted: "Long live Your Majesty Balgena!"

All the commoners also began to shout along with their idols: "Long live Your Majesty Balgena!"

......

After guiding the things praised by the civilians to His Majesty, looking at the approving gaze cast by His Majesty, Du Chen breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, damn, a companion is like a tiger, this sentence is too fucking classic!

......

The public trial is over.

The satisfied civilians gradually dispersed, but not long after, in the embassy of the Duchy of Sino in Lanning, someone laughed silverly, "Hehe, Francis has been promoted and made a fortune, then, as my student, he should have more silver coins to fund my art career!"

Jamies, who had just lost his top, crouched in the corner, smiling.

Anne glanced at Jamis with disdain, but she was really relieved, "Alas, I'm worried about death, Francis is fine! Potter, you are so clever that you guessed in advance that Francis would be rewarded!"

Potter pushed his glasses and smiled wryly.

But then, Anne, who was sentimental and had the mentality of a little daughter, thought again, by the way, is Mr. Bowen's astrology also a miracle? Francis is really not in danger, then, he said that he will meet a rival in love, or a very strong rival in love, will he also ...... "Hey, tell you a great joy!" Sem ran into the house with a happy face. Ambassador Sinoe told me that after the public hearing, the Archduke Andjes, the patriarch of the House of Saint-Cain, and the Prime Minister Antoine jointly informed all the nobles of Yanjing that in ten days, the Francis brothers would be engaged to the Prime Minister's granddaughter, Miss Avril!"

He grinned sincerely, sincerely happy for his good brother.

Suddenly, Sam noticed that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the room, especially Anne's desperate and ambiguous eyes, which made him suddenly realize his mistake!

He hurriedly remedied, "Hey, Anne...... That's right, but there is a grapevine that the Francis brothers don't agree to the marriage...... But the father's fate is unbearable......" Sem was pulled out by Jason before he could finish speaking.

Potter looked at Anne with regret, "Anne, you ......"

"I'm fine, I want to go out for a walk!" Anne walked out of the embassy in despair, wandering aimlessly through the streets, Francis was getting engaged...... The other party is still the granddaughter of a prime minister, and Lao Bowen's astrology really worked, but Francis didn't agree!

Yes, Francis himself did not agree, then there is still room for manoeuvre!

Anne quickly ran to the post office in Yanjing, and as soon as she entered the door, she shouted to the waiter, "Have you opened a mail route between you and Emerald City here? Great, please give me a copy of the stationery!"

She bit the end of the quill, smiled shyly, and wrote on the letterhead: "Grandpa, father, Anne is wrong, Anne should not run away from home, let alone force you not to send someone to protect Anne! However, Anne plans to marry herself, and immediately ask the family to send someone to me, okay? I have a very good partner, I, I will not marry him! Please believe Anne's vision!"

She drew a strange symbol at the end of the letter, "Alright, please mail this letter to the Dampier Hotel in the Emerald City and give it to the innkeeper!"

After doing all this, Anne smiled and left the post office.

Anne was laughing, and Du Chen was laughing, because everything in Yanjing was settled—except for the engagement ceremony that he didn't care about at all.

Then, the hundreds of villagers who sought justice for Du Chen were also rescued naturally, and hundreds of lives that should have been used as political victims were all counted on Du Chen's head by "Lotus Treasure Book"!

When the 'old five' had not yet shown its role, the 'old six' was born............
