Chapter 150: Divorce Stream?
To be honest, Duanmu Huai didn't expect that he would be able to have such a good show just when he was idle and bored to attend the banquet.
The reason why he agreed to come to this banquet was mainly because the Guardian Civilization was currently being rebuilt, and there was nothing to do for the time being. So when Ann said that there was a noble dinner party to invite them to, Duanmu Huai agreed.
After all, it was the first time for him to participate in this kind of aristocratic dinner in reality, and he also wanted to experience the atmosphere.
But what Duanmu Huai didn't expect was that he actually let himself watch a good show?!
Divorce flow, I thought that only in the middle would there be this kind of bridge!
It's just that this reason is too retarded!
In the online article that Duanmuhuai reads, the general divorce flow is mainly because the male protagonist's family is down, or the male protagonist has no talent, and then loses the right to inheritance, etc., the woman feels that it is not beneficial to marry the waste male protagonist, so the marriage contract is abandoned. Then the male protagonist said that thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, don't bully the poor teenager and so onβββ although this reason is a bit snobbish, but if you think about it, it's not unreasonable.
Who likes to marry their precious daughter to a junk isn't? Unless the woman also thinks that this woman is a money-loser, and simply throws it out to save her worries, she will generally choose to break the marriage contract.
Of course, it's not for nothing that the man takes the initiative to break up, Duanmuhuai still remembers that when he watched a short video, his wife cuckolded her husband, and the husband was angry, but on the wedding day, he directly made the green hat image public, and then directly kicked the woman's joke.
But............... To be honest, you're laughing off your teeth with this excuse!
God love, what kind of brain-dead idiot is this?
"Lord Jarde............!"
The aristocratic lady named Audrey was also obviously shocked, and she wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the man waving her hand.
"Shut up, Adele. Hasha, I judge that you are not qualified to be my fiancΓ©e, and that you have done all sorts of evil to Angela, and I don't want to deny it!
β
".................. evil deeds?"
In the face of Ard's accusation, Audrey seemed to be at a loss, completely unaware of what he was talking about, while the latter stared at Audrey and said angrily.
"Didn't you look down on Angela and even bully her because she was a commoner? Not only did you bully her, but you also stole and destroyed Angela's belongings, and even attempted to assassinate Angela! I've already looked into it! You are behind all these evil deeds! β
Hearing this, everyone was in an uproar, and even Ann and Gureya widened their eyes in surprise, not knowing what to say. Duanmu Huai glanced at them and asked.
"Is that so?"
"I,I didn't hear of such a thing in the school park!"
Ann shook her head desperately, just kidding, she is the princess of Manalia, if there is such a bullying or even assassination incident in the Manalia School Park, she can't know nothing!
"Miss Hannah?"
Duanmu looked at Hannah, who frowned.
"In the days when you are not in the school, Miss Audair and Miss Angela did have some conflicts, but at most, Miss Audair hopes that Miss Angela will not be too close to her fiancΓ©, and I haven't heard of such a thing........."
"We are willing to testify!
β
However, at this moment, I saw several young men come out of the crowd and stand beside Jarde. Seeing those people, Ann opened her mouth even more and was speechless.
"What's wrong with her?"
Looking at An's appearance, Duanmu Huai asked Gu Leiya suspiciously, could it be that there is someone she likes?
In the face of Duanmu Huai's inquiry, Gu Leiya hesitated for a moment, and then replied in a low voice.
"These are the sons of the powerful people within the Kingdom of Manalia, and they are all important figures among the nobles of the kingdom........."
"I see."
Duanmuhuai finally understood why An would show such an expression, before coming to the banquet, An had also introduced Duanmu Huai that the two families engaged this time were facilitated by her father and were part of a political marriage. But then again, because it is a political marriage, it is not as simple as an engagement between the two families, and it will even affect the political pattern of the royal family.
And now that the engagement ceremony that the king has approved will be opposed by the successors who also come after the important ministers, this inevitably makes people wonder if there are signs of power struggle beginning to appear within the kingdom, and it is no wonder that Ann is stunned at the moment, obviously she did not expect that a simple engagement dinner would turn out like this.
At this time, the sons of the nobles also stood by Angela's side and rebuked Audrey.
"Miss Angela is indeed of commoner origin, and she may not be familiar with the understanding that a nobleman should have, but Miss Audrey's rebuke is too much!"
"Obviously, Angela has also put in the effort, just because of the difference in identity, you do this kind of evil deed, it is really intolerable!"
In the face of the accusations from everyone, Audrey's face became more and more pale, and she also opened her mouth to retort.
"I did teach Miss Angela some truth, but I don't remember hurting her!"
"That's your arrogance! As the daughter of an earl with a prominent family, you don't look down on ordinary civilians at all! β
Yelder glared at Audrey viciously.
"Stop quibbling! Other daughters have already cried to us that they were forced to bully Miss Angela at your behest!
β
Soon, several aristocratic daughters came over and began to cry, and Duanmu Huai could be regarded as figuring out the reason in their crying.
To put it simply, according to this group of people, Audrey, as the daughter of the earl, has always looked down on Angela, who was born in a commoner, so she always scolds her, and even hints that those daughters bully her, so as to clear up her relationship with herself......... Well, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a vicious character like the eldest sister, the second sister or the stepmother in the Cinderella story.
As these people spoke, the atmosphere of the banquet hall began to change, and everyone began to cast dissatisfied and angry eyes at Audrey, who stood there dumbfounded, looking like she didn't know what to do.
"Your Royal Highness!
β
However, at this moment, I saw that Yard suddenly raised his head and looked at Ann, and when he heard his shout, the others also turned their eyes to Ann.
"Please punish this vicious woman immediately!
β
"Huh? Can......... This ..............."
In the face of Yalde's request, Ann was at a loss for a while, she originally came here, at most, on behalf of the royal family, to send blessings for the engagement of the two. As a result, I didn't expect the engagement dinner to turn out like this, which made Ann not know what to do for a while.
After all, she's not very good at this kind of interpersonal interaction.,Otherwise,An wouldn't be the only friend in the school park.γ
And just when Ann didn't know what to do, Duanmu Huai patted her on the head.
"Leave it to me."
"Mr. Knight? May I? β
Hearing Duanmu Huai's words, An Shuang's eyes lit up, and Duanmu Huai also smiled.
"Of course, how can you say that you are also my fiancΓ©e, you can't watch you being embarrassed by others."
"Hey, hey, hey..............."
Facing Duanmu Huai's words, Ann smiled embarrassedly, then she nodded, lifted the hem of her skirt and retreated. And Duanmu Huai stepped forward and stared at everyone. Looking at the appearance of Duanmu Huai, the whispers around him disappeared immediately, after all, everyone knew Duanmu Huai's prestige as a dragon slaying warrior, not to mention that he was also the fiancΓ© of Ann and Quaya, although he was not awarded the title, but everyone also knew that he was equivalent to the next king of Manalia, so he naturally did not dare to be presumptuous in front of him.
Duanmu Huai glanced at the people in front of him, including the pale-faced Audrey, as well as a few indignant noble heirs who seemed to be going to do the right thing for the sky, the crying daughter, and the girl named Angela who was held in Yard's arms.
Then, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, revealing a sneer.
Hmph, if you dare to play tricks in front of the judges, you are really tired of being alive.
Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai spoke.
"I've pretty much understood what happened, and since you've said so much, then............... Present the evidence. β
"Huh?"
Facing Duanmu Huai's outstretched hand, everyone was stunned. Looking at their reactions, Duanmu Huai raised his eyebrows.
"What? Didn't you just be arrogant and aggressive? I can't even get a little bit of evidence, so I'm talking nonsense here! β
Speaking of this, Duanmu Huai first looked at those daughters, and felt his sight, and the crying daughters were startled and hurriedly stepped back.
"Let's start with you, you said that you were instructed by Miss Audair to bully Miss Angela, so bring the evidence."
"I, we ..............."
Facing Duanmu Huai's scrutiny, the nobles' daughters turned pale.
"We have no evidence ..............."
"None? Nothing to write a note or anything? So what the hell are you making up here? β
"No, it's not that we don't want to leave evidence, Your Excellency!
β
At this time, a young girl couldn't help it, looked at Duanmu Huai and cried.
"Because Audrey hinted at us, we have to do it, and if we don't, we'll be the target of Audrey's bullying..................!
β
"Oh, I see."
Duanmu Huai nodded.
"So, let's get a witness to come out, since you said that if you don't bully Angela, you will be bullied by Miss Audrey, then there must be such a victim? Where is she? β
"This ..............."
In the face of Duanmu Huai's request, the aristocratic daughters were speechless again, and Duanmu Huai also squinted his eyes again and stared at them.
"So, there is no such victim? So you're talking nonsense? β
"Your Excellency, Your βββββ!"
"Isn't it?"
Duanmu Huai glanced coldly at Jarde.
"They don't have any evidence, and they don't have witnesses to prove their claims, isn't that nonsense? According to this logic, I will punch you now, and then I will tell you that His Majesty the King sees that you are not pleasing to the eye and wants to beat you, and I will do it for you, you don't hate me to hate His Majesty, do you think this is done? β
"Woo..............."
Facing Duanmu Huai's words, Yalde's face turned pale, but it was Ann's "poof" chuckle.
"Your Excellency!"
At this time, another aristocratic boy stood up and stared at him.
"We vouch for ............... with our reputation"
"Your reputation is worth a few dollars, shut up for me."
"You, what did you say?!
β
Hearing Duanmu Huai's unceremonious answer, the young man's face suddenly turned white with anger.
"How dare you insult our family..............."
"So what?"
Duanmu Huai snorted coldly, then stretched out his hand and pointed at everyone.
"Looking at your current position, this is certainly not a temporary idea, that is to say, you have already thought about making trouble at this dinner party and embarrassing Miss Audrey, right? It's your own business, and I don't bother to take care of it, but what do you think of us as guests at the banquet? Foolish? We're here for the engagement feast, not to see you playing monkey tricks here, and you're trying to treat us like fools, and expect me to look up to you like this? β
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β
Hearing Duanmuhuai's words, the eyes of the guests looking at the nobles' heirs changed, indeed, as Duanmuhuai said, when they came this time, they didn't hear about the matter in front of them, but they simply came to bless the two newcomers, but you actually dare to calculate us?
Do you really think we're monkeys?
Sensing the change in the atmosphere around him, Alder's face turned pale.
"Your Excellency............!"
"That's it!"
Duanmu Huai waved his hand and interrupted him.
"Since you want me and Ann to give you an explanation, then I'll give you an explanation........."
As he spoke, Duanmu Huai strode up to Jarde, and then he reached out and grabbed Angela, pulling her out, and then stared at Angela carefully. And the latter is trembling at the moment, with a pale face, looking like she wants to cry without tears, looking like the kind of heroine in a bitter TV series who is easy to make men protective.
It's the kind of person who falls in love first, then gets pregnant, then miscarries, and then finds out that his best friend and her husband are together, and then they are kicked out of the house and divorced.
But Duanmu Huai obviously won't get used to her, as an inquisitor, he has seen too many scenes.
So at this moment, Duanmu Huai stared at the girl, split his mouth, smiled coldly, and then waved his hand.
"Guards! Put this woman in jail for me! β
"What?!
β
Everyone was taken aback by Duanmu Huai's decision, and they didn't expect Duanmu Huai to be so terrifying and directly put this poor girl in prison?!
"How can you do that! Obviously Angela is the victim!
β
At this time, Alder also clenched his fists and rushed up, but Duanmu Huai flipped his big hand and slapped him directly to the ground.
"What you said, this woman told you, there is no evidence, slander others at will, I think it's not bad to lock her up for one night to calm down, as for you ..............."
Speaking of this, Duanmu Huai once again stared coldly at the noble young master's daughters who had just stood up and "had the courage to expose and point out".
"Now follow me all to the palace! Get this to the heart of the king! β
No one dared to disobey Duanmu Huai's order, after all, everyone knew how ruthless this dragon slaying hero was, not to mention that just standing there made people feel terrified. And those noble young masters also got into the carriage angrily, obviously planning to run to the king to sue the royal court.
Of course, Duanmu Huai also ordered someone to inform the parents of these idiotsβββ son is not the fault of his godfather, and let's come out together to admit the beating and be punished!
"Is that good?"
Although Ann was also very happy, she was still a little uneasy, after all, if it was to the king, it would not be a trivial matter.
"Of course, these bastards will have to pay if they want to take advantage of you."
Although Duanmu Huai was a little curious about this matter, strictly speaking, this matter had nothing to do with him, so he was just a bystander at first.
But things changed when the bastard named Yald named Ann for a verdict.
After all, their nonsense just now had already made the guests present sympathize with Angela, and if Ann didn't sanction Audrey, then it would obviously be impossible to say it. In fact, only Ann, who is the first princess of Manalia, is qualified to sanction Audrey, and it is because she knows this that Yalder asks Ann to adjudicate.
This puts Ann in a dilemma, and if she doesn't do what Jarde says, then she will inevitably be perceived as a hard-hearted, unsympathetic princess. And if you do what Yalder says......... Hey, it's the other way around, are you a princess or is she a princess? Do you dare to teach her to do things?
This is strange if you don't treat it in ancient times, you are full of slabs and even nine clans!
"Hey...............
An is also Bingxue smart, of course he understands why Duanmu Huai would stand up for himself, and at this time, he also hugged Duanmu Huai's arm with a smile and stopped talking.
But at this time, Hannah asked uneasily.
"But there's no need to put Miss Angela in jail, though I admit that there are some ......... between girls for various reasons But it's not .........."
"Hehe, I'm just the opposite of what you think."
Duanmu Huai shook his head at Hannah's words, and then he turned his head to look at Ogis beside him.
"Ogis, I'm asking you to go to the Templar Church now, find Lorena, and ask her to bring some powerful exorcists."
"Yes, master."
Hearing Duanmu Huai's order, Ogis nodded, and then turned around and left directly, and seeing this scene, the other three girls also looked at Duanmu Huai, and then Gu Leiya asked suspiciously.
"Mr. Knight, ............... are you?"
"I suspect that the woman named Angela is not human."
"Huh?"
Hearing Duanmu Huai's words, the girls were all taken aback.
"Really?"
"It's a bit of a feeling, but there's no evidence yet."
The reason why Duanmu Huai said this is also very simple, that is, when he first looked at Angela, her head was displayed as a very normal indication of [Angela (lv13)].
However, just as Duanmu Huai approached her, he noticed that the sign on Angela's head had suddenly changed, turning into a mass of mold lake words.
Although it recovered immediately, this immediately aroused Duanmu Huai's suspicions. He was sure that Angela was most likely in some kind of disguise, and that the sign above her head had changed because of her fear aura. After all, even if the Fear Aura was exempted, it would cause a round of trembling, and although it was short-lived, it could not be resisted.
And more importantly, although Angela was shaken for a moment in front of Duanmu Huai's frightened aura, she actually recovered quickly!
In other words, she was exempt from her fear aura!
Now Angela just says that she is human, and Duanmu Huai doesn't believe it anymore.
He was sure that there must be something wrong with this woman's identity!
