，

Two, Led thought for a moment. Then peeked at Lorraine's expression in the heart!" according to his crime, about ...... Perhaps...... Imprisonment for life. ”

Lorraine was stunned for a moment, he originally thought that his Baron Anker had done so many bad things, and he should come to raid his house or something, but he didn't expect to be punished like this, and he couldn't help but look at Blide very strangely,

Blide coughed lightly, then lowered his head very uncomfortably, avoiding Lorraine's gaze, and explained: "Actually" Peter Anke has been very successful since he became a sheriff, and the security in Freetown City has suddenly been much better, and there is no theft and robbery in the city.

Counting it, he still has some credit. ”

Lorraine then understood. It turned out that these guys wanted to save the baron's life for the sake of their previous friendship, and maybe they still accepted bribes.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shake his head, and said secretly in his heart: The gang leader became the police chief, and it is strange that the local security is not good, so I can only rob me and take it, and the others will all get out. Hong Kong's four detective generations. The detection rate is still claimed to be 100 percent, but the means are nothing more than carrying stolen goods and framing people, pulling people to take the blame, and cutting raw pork.

But in the current capacity of Lord Lorraine. This kind of thing of dying, if you still have to "personally care about it", it will show that his old man is too harsh.

Blide looked at Lorraine's expression, and then said: "Lord Lorraine, is it possible to intercede with Peter Anke, at least for a certain period of time, so that he does not have to die in prison." ”

Lorraine was stunned for a moment, although he didn't care about the life or death of the baron, he was not so open-minded that he let go of those who were against him.

He was about to open his mouth to push it away, when he saw Blide's eyes fixed on the one in the middle of the courtroom. thing, shortness of breath, and the circles under my eyes are red.

Lorraine was strange at the moment, and secretly said in his heart: What's wrong with this? Could it be mad cow disease?

He looked up and glanced down a few times, only to notice that the court was now in the stage of reviewing the evidence.

The things that were copied from Baron Peteranck's house were brought up one by one for the bandit leader to identify, and then Baron Peteranker told him the way out, but he never replied that he couldn't remember.

The soldiers on duty in the courtroom are placing a half-human-tall bronze statue in the center for them to identify.

All the nobles and officials present also looked at Blide with sympathy.

Lorraine was surprised, reached out and grabbed a person on the other side, and asked, "What's the matter?"

The man looked at Blide, and then replied, "Lord Hui, this statue of beauty is the heirloom of Blide. It's thousands of years old. Later, it was reported that one of his cousins had disappeared while helping with the transport. It turned out that everyone thought that the cousin had escaped with something.

But now it seems..."

When he said this, he suddenly became resentful, looked at the dejected former baron sitting in the dock, and scolded in a low voice: "Hmph, damn." I'll have to take a closer look, I've lost a lot of things in my house. Maybe it's all in the hands of this fat pig."

Leo heard it on the side, grinning heartlessly.

Although Lorraine sneered in his heart, his face did not change.

Bullard looked at Baron Peter Anker and gritted his teeth, "You filthy dead fat pig. Shame on the nobility, I must die. I'm going to kill you."

Lorraine glanced at Bllid sympathetically. But in my heart I felt a deep disgust.

Although in this feudal era full of violence and predatory, people need to huddle together to survive.

But this kind of pure blood relationship will only unite with the clan against outsiders, and unite with brothers against their cousins. Then he joined forces with his own son against his own brother,

In this primitive bloody and violent society, where there is no justice and justice, everyone will only rob each other, bloody vendettas, and wear three layers of body armor when walking on the street.

Who can say that they are absolutely safe in such a situation?

And in the end, it is also inevitable to die. Even if you are not destroyed by others, you will self-destruct

Thinking of this, Lorraine suddenly felt bored with the affairs of these officials, and even had little interest in this trial. I took a group of people and waited for the halfway back.

Lorraine secretly said in her heart: go, go. Uncle won't play with you, and there is a province waiting for me to toss

After the master is gone, you can fight to the death, a bunch of bitches raised by the crumbs, love to die and go away

Lorraine's interest has become very low, and he has no interest in Freetown, in fact, that place is different, it is all a bit of a mountain and water. Otherwise, it is a monument from hundreds of thousands of years ago. Catherine and Adele are still a little interested in these things, but for Lorraine, they are just with their girlfriends.

Lorraine's family went back to discuss it and decided that it was better to get on the road as soon as possible.

When the officials in Freetown received the news, they all cheered and almost wept bitterly.

They scrambled in the office to chant: the plague gods are finally leaving, and everyone is finally staying up until spring

The officers and soldiers of the Praetorian Guard are also in the city of Freetown, and Lorraine and they are here to toss the officials of Freetown, and these Janissaries are tossing the garrison of Freetown and the officials below.

Because of the rampant bandits, none of the Janissaries could afford to look down on the guys in Freetown.

In other places, the Praetorian Guards still have the attitude that no one will offend me, and I will not offend, but here in Freetown, everyone will not do anything about it. It will only show off its might on the heads of the common people and completely insult the "soldiers." The garrisons of this title are all there

These ruffians are under the fire of the liver. It's just that I have nothing to do, and it only takes two days to work. The garrisons were so beaten that they didn't dare to go out into the streets.

The Praetorian Guard, who had no opponent, looked like he was seeking defeat alone, and he had no problem with the garrison that was a turtle with a shrunken head, and after hearing the order to prepare, he simply packed up and prepared.

Today, Lorraine and his family got up early in the morning. After breakfast, they boarded the carriage and prepared to leave Freetown under the protection of the Praetorian Guard.

Although, according to the government, it is a great honor for the people of Freetown to be able to visit and guide the work of Freetown City, and men, women and children will welcome and bid farewell from the streets", Yunyun.

But in fact, everyone knows that this is just an official statement used to fool the standards of Shangguan.

There were not one or two highnesses from Freetown, and they had no good influence on these common people.

They only know that if they don't work for a day, they won't have anything to eat, and these big people will neither raise their wages nor give bonuses to them, except for closing the city and roads and causing trouble for everyone.

And a lot of times, you have to be organized. Participate in what "consciously and voluntarily," voluntary labor.

But when Lorraine and Catherine left. There are really a lot of Freetownians watching and sending each other off on both sides of the truth.

There was no other reason than that Lorraine had defeated one of the Freetowners. In a great calamity, catch one, scourge the people of the big moth, sweep away the bandits and robbers. The avenue is prosperous again, and the people of Freetown will have a better life.

Lorraine and Catherine looked through the car window, waving flowers on both sides of the road, and under the organization of the propaganda officials of Freetown City in civilian clothes, shouting slogans in unison, happy civilians, Lorraine suddenly sighed and said: "Actually, these people are really easy to satisfy. ”

Adele glanced outside and said with a smile: "But they wouldn't have thought that the good things you two ruffians did for them were motivated by robbing money." ”

Lorraine smiled bitterly and said, "Do you have the same end in the same way? This kind of thing has always been based on the consequences, regardless of the means and motives

The newly appointed Lord of Freetown, Baron Kenfa, led by the Friedan Lord, and all the officials of the Friedan City were waiting at the gate to see off Lorraine.

When they reached the gate of the city, the carriage stopped. Lorraine and Catherine opened the car door and walked down.

Baron Kenfa hurriedly saluted with these officials, and Catherine looked at everyone, and said lightly, "Well, well, and then said flatly: "Thank you for your hospitality, I spent my time in Freetown,"

Catherine thought about it for a while, decided to save some face for these people, and said, "It's been a good time." ”

Baron Kenfa and the others hurriedly said, "Her Royal Highness Princess Xie." ”

Catherine said: "Okay, don't disturb your work, give priority to government affairs, please go back."

After saying that, Catherine pulled Lorraine to board the carriage, and the forbidden officer gave an order, and the whole team quickly set off on the road.

Watching Lorraine, their team kept walking away. These officials in Freetown City felt that the sky was blue, the trees were green, and the "peaceful" life in the past could finally come back.

Lorraine and the others continued to march south, and at the same time, Catherine and Lorraine's report to the Emperor Xià and the Prime Minister. But it caused a lot of turmoil in Ruman City.

Emperor Zhulund was surprised to see that his nephew and niece had encountered robbers in the hinterland of the empire, for the emperor who had been receiving reports all day long that the country was harmonious and the people were stable. It's amazing.

Then, Emperor Julund suddenly came to his senses. At the moment, Prime Minister Russell collected reports on bandits, bandits, and pirates in the empire in recent years.

Russell had no choice but to hand over these things to the emperor, after all, Russell's own butts were not clean, and when they chased Catherine, they also used a group of bandits. The matter is still being hung up in the local governor's hands as a major case.

When Emperor Zhulunde took the thick stack of reports, he was surprised to find that the law and order situation in his empire was actually different from what the governors said.

Bandits, robbers, horse thieves, river bandits, and pirates, like the annual floods, dry mornings, and locust plagues, haunt all parts of the empire.

Like Catherine the gang they met. Although he has also knelt on the traffic arteries for five years, compared to those real bandits, it is really nothing in terms of scale and impact.

Nearly 10,000 pirates, able to occupy several islands as bases, have been fighting with the Imperial Navy for decades, and the navy has no way to deal with them.

Bandit groups of thousands of people, entrenched in the border and mountains, can even defeat the legions sent by the empire to suppress bandits in a row, claiming to be the king without authorization, and there are still places that will pay them protection money in order to avoid disaster

The result, of course, was that Long Yan was furious, and the emperor's majesty scolded him for spurting blood, and he lost his temper at the subsequent state affairs meeting, and even smashed several ink bottles, and dyed all the big people with ink spots.

His Majesty the Emperor personally ordered the implementation of the special rectification activities for the first year, and the governors of the provinces were personally responsible for the start of the special rectification activities for one year.

Majesty can talk. This is a political task, and if you don't meet the standards, you are not qualified in politics, and your thinking is not strong, so I will come back for re-education.

The order was quickly conveyed to the governors, and it was a matter of life and death.

The members of all walks of life sighed that they had spent hundreds of millions of days of leisurely life, put down the original work at hand, and then gathered their wings... With the garrison and guards, he personally led the team and threw himself into the front line of the vigorous suppression of bandits.

The reserve troops stationed in the rear of the fortress and the border were all mobilized, and for a time there was a storm in the empire, and the military and police were everywhere chasing the robbers.

Admiral Kaput, commander of the Southern Fleet of the Ruman Navy, finally got the support he had been asking for. Assemble a huge fleet, equip all the sailors with armor and weapons, and use them as infantry, and in one fell swoop wipe out the pirate lair that had plagued for decades, killing several islands to the point where not a single living thing remains.

Then Di Ren gave a good report to His Majesty the Emperor, and announced in a high-profile manner that his defense area had been completely cleared. (As a result, because of the great success, it was not completely wiped out, and the pirates who escaped became Lorraine's trouble a few months later.)

For this thunderous anti-bandit operation, the civilians of the Ruman Empire rarely applauded the government.

Lorraine's luck has always been good, even if it escaped this storm, because Naian Province belongs to the border provinces, and the back is attached to the reckless primeval forest, it should be the most severe place in the empire for bandits, not to mention that there are orcs who often enter and plunder.

If Lorraine is already in office, he must be overwhelmed by this political task, but this uncle is still on the way to office, and no matter how bad Nai'an is doing, it has nothing to do with him, and when Lorraine arrives in Nai'an, this storm will come to an end.

Lorraine was very peaceful on the next road, even if the emperor did not give the order to die, just Lorraine's behavior in Freetown was enough to make the officials below vigilant.

Everyone knows that as long as this master is not good, it will be enough for him to drink a pot beautifully in the end. Therefore, it is all about fighting with the spirit and heart.

Lorraine is now on this road, and even the beggars have been pushed far away.

When Leo saw it, he was naturally extremely disappointed, he didn't lead the Praetorian Guards to run to those places where there might be thieves, but now this place has long been closely monitored by the local garrison. Those who want to walk faster have even become ruins.

The group remained silent until they reached a large port in the south, where Lorraine boarded the waiting fleet and sailed directly from the sea to the city of Nidel.

Compared with taking the avenue, this saves time and is much more comfortable, only walking on the road and passing through a few provinces, but Leo is unwilling to do this, which will cost much less

Lorraine and the others sat on the deck, holding parasols and wearing sunglasses, enjoying the midsummer sea breeze.

Lorraine swept around, and the first thing that came to mind was that when she got to Neyan, she must circle a beach. Build a private beach, and when the time comes, the sun, the beach, the bikini girl, and the dreams of their own struggle will come true

In the future, you don't have to do anything, and you can enjoy life comfortably.

Seeing Lorraine's flickering eyes and saliva expression, Adele knew that Lorraine didn't know what inappropriate ghost ideas were turning in Lorraine's mind, so she took a sip of Lorraine, and knocked on Lorraine with the fan in her hand.

While Lorraine and Adele were flirting, the guard shouted below, "My lord." There was a ship coming from the other side, and it seemed to be Ney'an's. ”

Lorraine got up from her chair and asked, "We're almost there?"

The guard said, "Yes, sir. It is expected to enter the estuary in the afternoon and arrive in the city of Nedel tomorrow. ”

Catherine stretched and sighed, "This journey is finally coming to an end. I'm exhausted

At this time, the envoys sent by Naian climbed aboard the ship in which Lorraine was located, and Lorraine finally received his subordinates for the first time as governor.

The identity of this person confused Lorraine at once, the tax officer directly belonged to the Ministry of Finance, not a subordinate official of the governor, and there was no need to run over to slap himself as the new governor so upside down.

But after listening to the man's report, Lorraine was relieved.

It turned out that the officials at all levels of Naian heard that their boss was the white face that Her Royal Highness Princess Catherine had taken a fancy to, and that the future Emperor Majesty Leo was accompanying him, and this kind of big thick leg was not something that could be hugged casually.

Of course, everyone wants to be the first to come to the Governor of Lorraine to be courteous and make a good impression in front of their immediate superiors.

Fighting and fighting, no one can convince anyone. In the end, everyone had to compromise, so this honorable task fell to the head of the tax collector of Nai'an.

Lorraine had a brief chat with the tax collector to learn about the specific situation in Nai An Province, so that she could have a good idea of it.

The next day, the huge fleet river. Walk up the wide Beni River to Ned

City.

The numerous ships on the river were spread out like ants, surrounding Lorraine's fleet, and the Neders came out to watch the light governor of the year, and the admirals in charge of escorting them did not dare to slack off, and kept them all on the periphery.

Lorraine and his family stood on the bow of the boat, and from here they could see the gray figure of Nedel City. Built at the confluence of the two rivers, Nedel spreads out along the tongue-like terrain, which is clearly different from the green earth on both sides.

Close to the mouth of the crossing is the historic castle of Nedel City, where Lorraine will be located. The Doge's Palace is located, and the spire of the tower can be seen from afar.

The harbor of Nedel City was now full of people, and officials of all ranks waited patiently under the scorching sun for their governor. (To be continued)
