"Hmph, well, I now announce that Karl will be relieved of his post as Minister of War......" Earl Charles had just given his sentence, but the next moment he was stunned.

The dog suddenly let out a cry of pain, as if it had suffered greatly.

"Bang ......"

The dog could no longer hold it up, and rolled over and collapsed to the ground, foaming at the corners of its mouth, which was terrible.

The hall fell silent again, and everyone looked at the dog in disbelief, and the words that wanted to beat the reservoir dog and accuse Carl were swallowed hard.

"Lord Earl, I am willing to accept your punishment." Karl bent down and said lightly, his eyes becoming a little cold.

The Count of Charles was stunned, at a loss for a while, not knowing what to say, but the facts proved everything, it was indeed a glass of poisoned wine, and Karl saved his life!

So what is he doing? He abolished Karl's position!

"No, no, no, my friend, it's a misunderstanding, you saved my life, please treat what I just said as if I didn't say it." Earl Charles hurriedly shook his head, if he really abolished Karl, it would definitely make the other party feel cold.

In fact, Karl is indeed a little chilled now, although he knows that he can't blame Count Charles, but after all, people are emotional animals, and at such a juncture, Count Charles did not choose to believe him, which was enough to leave him with a rift.

Carl also did not answer, and returned to the position of the Dias family in silence, accompanied by Baron Dias and Pyne.

He looked at Pine Carr much more kindly, and in his eyes, this reckless brother was ready to help him if something happened at that time, even if it would put him in trouble.

After all, blood is thicker than water, and Pyne chose to protect and believe in his younger brother, so he would naturally give something in return, but it was Baron Dias's performance that disappointed him a little.

"Carl, I need to apologize to you, maybe I shouldn't doubt you." Baron Dias was slightly apologetic.

"It's okay father." Karl shook his head, but said nothing more.

"I should apologize to you too, my friend." The Earl of Charles also came over.

"Earl, perhaps you should pay more attention to that cup of poisoned wine." Carl barely managed to squeeze out a smile and pointed to the paralyzed dead dog on the ground to remind.

"You're right!" When the Earl of Charles heard the word poisoned wine, there was a fierce light in his eyes, he had just almost died, although it might be good to be summoned by the Lord, but he was not willing to do so early and in this way.

"Guards, cordon off this hall...... No, seal off the entire castle and don't let a fly out! "The Earl of Charles gave the order to die directly, and he is now in a state of extreme rage, and he must catch this murderer.

The nobles were terrified, although they were not interested in the young earl, but they were still afraid that this matter would implicate themselves and make a living as an earl? This kind of thing is really piercing.

Some nobles lowered their heads, praying that trouble would not find them, but when his gaze inadvertently met Karl's, his nerves tensed, and cold sweat desperately broke out from his body.

"Damn, I'm not going to let him worry about it." The nobleman's face was as dead as ashes, and he was annoyed in his heart, why did he be so cheap, just now he was one of the most cheerful among the nobles who accused Carl, which probably made Carl hate.

In the current situation, Carl is likely to say that the murderer is likely to be him, then he is afraid that he will be cold directly, even if he really wants to say that there is no evidence, the other party will detain him for a short time first, so that the so-called evidence will soon be sufficient.

Fortunately, Carl's gaze only lingered on him for a short moment before leaving, obviously with no intention of retaliating against him.

He breathed a sigh of relief, glad that he had escaped the catastrophe, and he would have to control his mouth when he said anything in the future.

"Lord Earl, this is the maid who has just brought your wine!" Soon, the guards pulled a thin, helpless-looking maid over and threw her in front of the Earl of Shire.

"Say, why is that wine poisonous?" The Earl of Charles lowered his eyes slightly, and his tone was flat, but with unquestionable will.

"I'm ...... I don't know, I'm just pouring wine normally! The maid looked like she was about to cry, as if she really didn't know anything.

The Earl of Charles frowned, and for a moment he couldn't tell whether the other party was telling the truth or not.

"I don't know, do you? Then it's useless to leave you alone. ”

At this moment, Karl, who was in his position, suddenly stood up, raised his right hand, and a long sword came out, pointing at the maid, as if he was going to kill her on the spot in the next moment.

The Earl of Charles wanted to stop it, after all, this was his castle, and now a banquet was being held, although this banquet was smashed, but it should not kill people here.

But before he could stop it, Karl's sword had already touched the tip of the maid's nose.

The maid cried out as soon as she said "wow", obviously facing the moment of life and death, she still showed the emotions that a person should have.

"I say! I say! Spare me a few adults! The maid wept bitterly, for fear that these noble lords would see that she was not pleasing to her eyes and slashed with her sword.

Karl snorted coldly and sat down back in his place with his sword, as if he didn't intend to take care of it any longer.

The Earl of Charles was helpless, and then looked at the maid with hatred.

"Say, what the hell is going on!"

"I ...... I'm a very ordinary farmer, and I met a guy who gave me a lot of money to poison you with a packet of arsenic in your glass, and I really don't know anything else! ”

The maid was crying and crying, and looked pitiful, but when she thought that the man in front of her had almost poisoned the earl, she did not feel pity for him.

"Who ordered you!"

"I don't know, that person is covered by a black robe, I can't see clearly!"

"How did you get into the castle?"

"I don't know, but we were suddenly allowed to enter, and we were made maids."

Before he could finish listening to her words, the Earl of Charles had already frowned tightly, it was obvious that this was just a flag that was pushed out in the open, that is, it was used to poison himself, and it was estimated that he would be abandoned after poisoning.

And such cannon fodder naturally doesn't know anything, they can only passively carry out orders from their superiors.

Count Charles felt that something was a little tricky, and there might be a lot of poisonous wine involved, but it was impossible for him not to check it out, not to mention that he couldn't swallow this breath in his heart, if it really happened as if nothing happened, then the banner of the Chris family would not need to be asked.

On the side, Baron Thórs closed his eyes slightly, and he was also a little nervous, although Elvette said that the matter had been dealt with, but if people did not know unless they did nothing, it was impossible for things to be done without evidence.

"Wait, if I'm not mistaken, you seem to have been to the pharmacy recently, right?" Karl spoke suddenly, staring at the maid's face as if remembering.

"My ......, Adult"

"I remembered, you were the maid I bumped into at that time, I was there to buy herbs, and I smelled arsenic, and I was still confused, and I didn't remember it for a while......

Karl tapped lightly on the arm of the chair, slowly telling of what had happened before.

Most of the nobles present were not fools, and although Karl only said it briefly, everyone understood what he meant.

"Pharmacy...... Hehe, well, well, buy these things openly to kill me, what a big guts! The Earl of Charles laughed angrily, but his mood was a little relieved, at least now he had found a clue, and that was in the drugstore!

"Go, lock down the pharmacy for me, I need information from everyone who has been there during this time, right away!" The Earl of Charles commanded loudly.

"Yes!" The guards hurriedly left.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I hope you will stay in Winterburg for the next few days, and when the matter is investigated, the allegiance ceremony will be carried out." Earl Shire's eyes twitched, and he said.

"Of course, as you wish, my monarch." Naturally, the nobles had no objections, and they knew that it had become Count Shire's way of venting now that they had investigated the matter.

……

"Lord Earl, after our investigation, we have discovered something." In the shadows of the room, a deep male voice reported to the Earl of Charles.

"Say!"

"There is not only one handmaid who has been arranged to come in during this time, there are also two people, we have taken them all down, but after interrogation they also know nothing about the people behind the scenes, but we have learned from other places that they are from the villain's guild, but they are a little confused, it seems that some people deliberately give us a general ......"

"The Guild of Villains? Are those lowly guys involved in this? The Earl of Charles was a little stunned, and then he was furious, and the untouchables in his own territory were actually plotting to kill him, the earl!

"We also found some clues, the person who came into contact with the villainous guild seems to be Baron Tórse, of course, we don't have any evidence, and we also found some interesting things that will surely interest you."

As he spoke, the man whose face he could not see clearly handed something to the Earl of Charles.

The Earl of Charles glanced at it casually, but the next moment he felt his blood boiling.

"Heheha! Good, good, good, very good...... It's my territory, but I'm not a lion cub......"

"Don't startle the snakes, continue to investigate, but be cautious, and don't touch them!"

"Yes!"

No one knew that what the elder Count Lens had left to Charles was not only this territory and the identity of the patriarch of the Chriss, but also a secret team that monitored the entire territory, they were daggers in the shadow of the Chriss' banner, waiting to slit the throats of the Chriss' enemies......
