Chapter 38: Cooperation?

The carriage in which the Duke of Rhine rode entered the city of Calais in the middle of the night, and the butlers and servants who had been waiting for a long time immediately greeted him.

The duke, however, waved his hand in a low-key manner and got out of the carriage on his own, taking off his gloves as he walked and asking, "Have you made it clear?" The man was found? ”

"Yes, my lord, they are in the city of Calle."

"Bring them to me tomorrow."

Early the next morning, there was a knock on the door of the house they rented.

At this time, Zhou Tang and the others were already dressed and waiting for someone to come.

Adair, the lowest of the four, opened the door very consciously, and a man dressed as a knight stood outside the door and said directly, "My master is invited." ”

Adel asked suspiciously, "Who is the master of your house?" ”

Before the knight could speak, Zhou Tang answered, "But Duke Rhine? ”

"It's His Royal Highness the Duke."

Adel remembered in a daze that it was a little later yesterday afternoon that they had found out that there would be a big man coming to Calais today.

What I didn't expect was that the big man sent someone to invite them early this morning?!

Earlier, Cheng Mu woke him up and said that someone would come to look for them, but he didn't believe it, but he didn't expect that people would come before he had breakfast.

The speed of the action caught him off guard.

The four of them crowded into the carriage, and the knight outside drove them to the duke's lodging.

In the early morning of the city of Calle, the morning light was faint, and the sound of horses' hooves sounded in the streets.

Soon, the carriage arrived at its destination, and the four of them were led by the butler waiting at the door into the most luxurious place in the city of Calle.

In the dining room, the butler also prepared breakfast intimately, "I'm sorry, the duke has something to deal with temporarily, please wait here." ”

They didn't have to wait long, and Duke Rhine entered the dining room.

The duke has an extraordinary temperament, a handsome appearance, and his gestures all show the momentum of his superiors.

Alice, who is proficient in aristocratic etiquette, took the lead in getting up and saluting, and Zhou Tang and the others learned Alice's posture to greet the duke, although the etiquette was not standard, but it was confident and chic.

Only Adair was a little reluctant and uncomfortable.

The Duke sat down under the service of the butler, and he spoke directly, "I know that you are deliberately spreading rumors about Evari Castle. ”

Zhou Tang replied, "His Royal Highness, the stories about Evari Castle are not rumors, they are real, and we choose to say them boldly, but we have been drenched in the rain and want to shelter other girls from the rain." ”

Cheng Mu glanced at Zhou Tang thoughtfully.

Adair nodded in agreement with her words, and Alice thought of what she had been through these days, from a noble lady to a devilified missing person, with no home to go back to, like a rootless duckweed drifting with the waves, she couldn't help but have a reddening in her eyes and moist the corners of her eyes.

"Oh?" The Duke's gaze suddenly turned to Alice, "Then can the young lady of the Jumene family tell me why you want to expose your aunt and uncle?" ”

Alice was startled, her eyes suddenly foggy.

The butler handed her a handkerchief, and Alice wiped the corners of her eyes to calm down, and did not deny her identity, "Since His Royal Highness the Duke knows my origin, then he should also know that I have disappeared!" Perhaps even more absurd, I eloped with the guards of the Duchess of Evari. ”

Adel chimed in, "I'm the grief guard. ”

The Duke didn't give Adel a single look, only looked at Alice, and she continued, "Adel is also the Duchess's lover, and I have an unintentional relationship with Adele, and Madame hates me very much because of this. After being caught rapist, Madame chose to use Adel and me to make a show to deceive the world. ”

Adel felt compelled to defend himself, "I was personally chosen by the Duke of Evari to be his wife's lover. And I don't have any extra thoughts about Alice, I just want to save her from the castle. ”

Alice slowly recounted what she had experienced in a soft voice, and she was very sad, "Duchess, she has cut me off, and I will never go home again!" No, she never wanted to let me go, she wanted to kill me and nourish her skin with my blood. They saved me. ”

Duke Rhine felt Alice's true feelings, and the noble lady's downfall was obviously forced to helpless.

The butler brought a glass of hot milk at the right time to ease Alice's bad mood.

Zhou Tang continued, "The Duchess of Evari believes in the evil methods of wizards and constantly persecuts the maidens in her territory, and she believes that the blood of the maidens can keep her young forever. He even stretched out his hand to the noble lady. ”

"Hmm, what does that have to do with me?" The Duke's calm voice was callous.

"His Royal Highness the Duke has found us, which means that we are still useful. It is said that the Duke of Evari has a fiery temper and advocates the use of force to settle the matter, and he has been at odds with you for a long time. And we are your weapon to bring him down. ”

The Duke sneered, "You guys? I am at odds with him, but what you say is not a threat to him, and otherwise he would not have indulged his wife in doing what she pleased. ”

The people under the Duke of Rhine have already found out about the unrest in Evari Castle, but how can the lives of a few commoner girls compare to those of nobles?

Zhou Tang shook his head and said mysteriously, "There are still a large number of forbidden books hidden in Evari Castle, and there are many magic books written by wizards. The Duchess is already an out-and-out witch for her own selfish desires.

How can a duke who gets along with witches day and night become bloodthirsty, disregarding the safety of the country, and just want to kill on the battlefield to satisfy the pleasure? ”

The duke glanced at Zhou Tang meaningfully.

Zhou Tang continued, "We have already exposed the Duchess's evil deeds and pointed out the direction for everyone, why don't His Royal Highness the Dukes add a fire to make this scene sing louder."

Commoners are sometimes like mustards, but when they gather great power, the monarch is also afraid. And no monarch can stand a power that is not under his control. The power of the wizard is not to be touched by the supreme power. ”

Duke Rhine couldn't help but stretch out his hand to applaud, the girl in front of him seemed to be more like a young lady from a noble family than Alice, and her words were more to the point.

He asked, "What do you want?" ”

Adel replied anxiously, "We just want to save the girls trapped in the castle!" There was a hidden cage where a dozen people were held, some of whom had been looted by guards posing as bandits, and some had been tricked into the castle... Even under the castle's most beautiful flower fields, there are layers of bones buried. ”

These are all what Zhou Tang Cheng Mu told Adair, Adel went from fear to anger, and Alice no longer hesitated.

The Duke smiled playfully, "As long as that's all?" ”

Zhou Tang was very calm, "We just want our lives to get back on track, after all, you are the most suitable person to be in charge of the country, Duke." ”
