On the afternoon of February 10th, Rant Galloping Horse, Duke of Night Qicheng City, Li Qi Honglong, Duke of Dragon's Tooth City, Duma Feilong, Marquis of the East, and Marquis of the South, appeared outside the gate of the Temple of Life in Longtai Mountain.

The bustling crowd and vigilant knights had already surrounded several blocks around the temple, until the Griffin Knights had set up a cordon outside the main entrance of the temple to allow a dozen noble carriages to get closer.

At about 2:30 p.m., a carriage with the red dragon coat of arms entered the temple grounds, and Rand and Duma welcomed Li Qi from the carriage like stars holding the moon, and then surrounded the future king to offer various tributes to the statue of Lukea, the goddess of life.

Since last summer, the temple has taken down several surrounding courtyards and set up an orphanage to take in orphans who have been left unattended after several gang fights.

After last December, the number of children in the orphanage reached its peak, and more than a dozen clergy, including Priest Ona, took care of the children while raising money for the orphanage.

However, unlike the orphanages run by the Knights in various regions, the children in this orphanage of Priest Ona are all from gangs, including Terrans, orcs and even demon boys.

Many families did not dare to donate for fear of damaging their reputation, and even the nobles who used to come to the temple to donate and pray chose to go to the cathedral of the temple alliance instead of coming to this temple specifically.

So today, Li Qi came in person with Rand and Duma, they not only brought a large amount of gold coins and food, but also announced to the nobles of the entire royal capital that last year's aristocratic struggle has completely ended with the arrival of the new year, and the current Dragon's Tooth City is extremely united.

After offering tribute to the idol, Li Qi and a group of nobles walked from the side gate to the orphanage under the leadership of the Grand Priest Ona, and distributed food to many orphans.

"Come on, come on, children, His Royal Highness Li Qi has given everyone something to eat," Priest Ona made a group of orphans line up and walked in front of the nobles one by one.

And Li Qi took her new eldest lady, Emily Lanyuan, to take all kinds of fruit snacks from Rand and Duma and distribute them to the children.

Since it was a declaration, Li Qi invited a particularly rich audience, in addition to the subordinate officials of the Duke of Dragon's Tooth City, and the nobles from all over the kingdom, he also invited representatives of the Temple Alliance, the Magic Guild, and various countries.

A group of spectators watched the embarrassing performances of several nobles, their pretentious speeches and their interactions, and although they all knew the truth in their hearts, they still burst into applause to express their support for the Red Dragon Royal Family.

At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the sky was getting dark, and Duke Li Qi, who had been busy for more than an hour, returned to the Duke's Palace under the escort of many court nobles and knights.

And Rand and Duma Wyvern are still in a lounge in the orphanage, about the previous assassination, the two nobles are not sure, it is obviously a fishing operation against the southeastern nobles, how can it end for nearly 20 days.

"Duke Rand, where do you think that assassin will be?" Duma was the first to ask, "Will she be sheltered by some big man in the city?" ”

"Definitely!" Lan said categorically, "But the forces in Dragon's Tooth City are intertwined, and it is not difficult to hide such a high-level professional, I think we should sort out from the source, which nobleman in the southeast sent such an assassin to openly assassinate on Longtai Mountain!" ”

"This ......" Duma chased after the hiding matter, just to confirm whether the assassin was in the hands of Rand, but he still turned to the sensitive topic of the source of the assassination.

Suddenly, a girl's voice appeared outside the door: "Two ...... Two adults, there are a few nobles outside who want to see you......"

"Lord Duke, Lord Marquis, the envoy of the Marquis of Southeast Fiat wants to see the two." Dugan Blue Dragon, who was standing guard outside the door, added.

Rand and Duma glanced at each other, sneered and said, "I'm afraid, the answers we want can be obtained from this envoy." ”

Duma hurriedly nodded: "That's right, it must be their troublemaker." ”

With that, the two men ordered their attendants to open the door, and instead of paying attention to the Assassin Ioni they had been searching for, they went straight to the backyard of the orphanage, where they met with the messenger of the Southeastern Galloping Horse, Viscount Tony Downer Gallop.

"Duke of Rand, Marquis Duma, as the envoy of the Marquis of Fiat, I send greetings to the two of you," Tony's expression was very humble, beside him, there were more than a dozen magic boxes, as Tony's entourage continued to open, the various seafood in the magic boxes were presented in front of the two nobles.

"Lord Duke, Lord Marquis, I have come on behalf of my Marquis this time to determine the whereabouts of a knight with two - the former head of the Griffin Knights, the Grand Knight Susie Lan Yuan."

"You're looking for her?" Rand asked with a smile.

"I only have a few encounters with Susie Grand Knight, how can I find her for something!" Tony said with a smile, "It was the Marquis of Fiat who heard that Grand Knight Susi was sent to another city not long ago because of his improper duties.

The Marquis had heard of Susie's name for a long time, so he wanted to arrange for her to be the head of the knight in the city of Solander, so he specially consulted with the two adults. ”

"I'm afraid you have a misunderstanding about the appointment of Susie Knight," Rand said with a smile, "At that time, the Great Council did not make clear arrangements for Susie Knight, and she resigned as the head of the Gryphon Knight for personal reasons. ”

"Really?" Tony looked at Dugan with some suspicion, after all, the situation in the council on the night of the 11th was not a secret, and even Susie got the appointment of the Marquis of the South, and it was well known that she was embarrassed by the mage of the Wyvern family in the teleportation hall.

What Tony didn't expect was that Duma was so busy nodding his head that he even found a reason, "Of course it's true!" Susie Knight was ...... at the time Forehead...... At that time, her mount had fallen in time and space. ”

"It seems that there is such a thing, and I broke my arm!" Rand nodded quickly.

"Yes, the death of the mount was a big blow to her, so she resigned as the head of the knights, and where she is now depends on her personal wishes."

Duma slipped through the trick of turning the cause into effect, apparently he took the lead in removing Susie from her position, and then his Magister attacked her griffin.

However, recently, the Wyvern family has heard that Susie has made great contributions to the battle against the mermaid clan and has been appreciated by the legend of the Red Dragon Rock, so the entire Wyvern family's evaluation of Susie is turning rapidly, for fear that in the future, this great knight will break through the high level and kill it back, and the old hatred between the two sides will be added to the new hatred.
