Chapter 40: Judgment
After persuasion by Blanton, who did not know the truth and did not know what to say, Nance and the butler got what they wanted, and the Duchess agreed to send a letter informing the Duke of what had happened in the past ten days.
After writing the letter, the lady couldn't help but be in a trance, what happened in just ten days was more interesting than what happened in the previous ten years...
She covered her chest, the doctor said that her wound was recovering well, her appearance was a lot haggard due to recuperation, should she wash her face with blood tonight?
Her heart fluttered and she called Yuna!
Things developed very quickly, and they were not given a chance to react at all, and Duke Rhine, under Zhou Tang's reminder, directly sent someone to cut off the communication between Evari Castle and the outside world.
And in the early morning of the second day, a huge procession and petition was organized in the city of Calais, by peasants, commoners, etc., and these people marched around the city of Calais and finally came to the church.
The priests in the church listened to the common people's stories, and their whole bodies trembled with fear, and the lady they were about to sue was not a person he could move!
The priest's heart fluctuated, but he could only hold his face steady, and said sternly and coldly, "What you said is all rumors, and there is no real evidence. The Duke and Lady of Evari are the princesses, and I cannot sue her for a few specious rumors! β
His tone softened, "You'd better go back!" Stop it. If you continue to make trouble, it won't work... You should think about yourself and your family. β
As soon as he said this, everyone finally gathered together and mustered up the courage to step into the place, but before he could finish speaking, he was dismissed by the priest's words.
How is this acceptable?
"O my tragic daughter! She's a witch! Why don't you care?! I'm not alive anymore! Not alive anymore. β
"You've burned several witches, why don't you dare to put things on her?!"
"My sister has been missing for two years! My mother was blinded by crying for her..."
"My fiancΓ©e, she was robbed by robbers disguised as the duke's guards! I'm not convinced..."
There were miserable and miserable weeping, and to tell the truth, there were piles and piles, but it was impossible for the priest to stand up for them, so he turned around and left, and ordered the servants to drive these people out.
It's just that the priest's wish is going to be frustrated.
Zhou Tang appeared in the church with Cheng Mu and others with an imposing momentum of two meters eight.
"Father! We are the survivors of the escape from Evari Castle! The witches there don't just do it to the girls, but even to the men..."
As soon as these words came out, the priest's body couldn't help but tremble, if it was just a girl who suffered, he could hide his own child and prevent her from going out, so that the witch could take advantage of it.
But now that the witch is indiscriminately moving, then anyone may encounter accidents.
Adel was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look at Zhou Tang, and slandered her in his heart for her ability to talk nonsense.
But I heard Zhou Tang say again, "I don't know if Duke Evari is involved, and he also wants to plot that youth to last forever." β
The priest's forehead was covered with sweat, and he was so blocked by the girl that he couldn't speak, and he couldn't help but reprimand loudly, "Shut up! No gibberish! Fast! Someone gag them and drag them out. β
It's just that Cheng Mu's high force value is in front of her, and the girl is not affected and continues with a cold face, "There is a large beautiful flower field on the east side of Evari Castle, and the bones of those missing girls are there!" If the priest doesn't believe it, he can go and find out.
There are also a dozen young girls in the attic in the west corner of the castle! If you had gone early, you would have saved these girls. At the top of the castle, where the witches cast their spells, hiding weapons and forbidden books..."
Zhou Tang spoke in detail and clearly, and the reliability was extremely high, and those people suddenly gathered around the priest, who forcefully refused, but was suppressed by the voice.
Duke Rhine appeared at the right time, and the priest, who was driven to madness, seemed to have found a backer, "Your Royal Highness! His Royal Highness the Duke! Get these people out! How dare they slander Duke Evari at will! It's an unforgivable sin! β
But to disappoint him, he only listened to Duke Rhine's mouth open and said, "Since there are so many people questioning Duke Evari, it is better for you to find out what is going on, in the name of Evari!" β
The priest's eyes were black and he fell to the ground!
What the hell did he hear? I'm scared of him, so it's better to let him lie down...
He was wrong! It suddenly flashed in his mind that the Duke of Rhine and the Duke of Evari had always been at odds with each other, and their political disagreements were famous throughout the country! How could the Duke of Rhine give up such a great opportunity to bring down Evari?
The priest's eyes were closed, his teeth were clenched...
Duke Rhine saw that the priest was pretending to be unconscious and wanted to hide, so he shook his head and said, "The priest might as well report this matter to the monarch!" If only the monarch could tolerate the witches and witches stirring up trouble in their territory and persecuting countless civilians..."
The priest is alive again, and he can't take hot things, so he can only send them out, and they send them out quickly!
He threw himself on the Duke of Rhine and shouted, "The Duke help me." β
The priest was like a divine assistant, and the news reached the ears of the monarch in less than a day.
The monarch was resolute and immediately sent the Duke of Rhine, who was in the city of Calle, which was closest to Evari Castle, and the priest to investigate the matter.
There is no need for Zhou Tang to talk about the follow-up, Duke Rhine used his troops quickly, and on the day he received the monarch's reply, no matter how late it was night, he immediately ordered a team of knights to follow him and the priest to Evari Castle.
Zhou Tang and the others were among them, but Alice felt that she couldn't face this situation, she didn't want to see her brother Blanton's disappointed eyes, she didn't want to see her cruel aunt again, and she was afraid to step into the castle again.
Winnie and the other three were huddled together in a small room, and after three days of living in the castle, she carefully found that there were only four of them in the castle, as the noble man had said.
Like a sharp knife hanging over her head, the rope shook her mind with a shake.
She wore her hair loose and wore a nightgown, leaning against the edge of the windowsill with her knees folded and looking out the window.
It was pitch black outside the window, as it had been since she had come to this copy, the darkness had not seen the light, and she hugged herself, wondering if she was going to stay here forever?
Suddenly a throbbing flame came into view, and she stood up in surprise and leaned on the windowsill, poking her head out to see what was going on.
The torches soon approached the castle, did anyone visit the castle in the middle of the night?
Before Winnie could figure out anything, she saw a group of people in the castle come out with torches held high.
It's just that after a while of negotiation, the torch was extinguished and the guests came back with them?!
Nance rode out of the castle on tall steeds with a group of men and asked, "Who dares to harass Evari Castle at night?" This is the Dukedom of Evari! Quickly retreat! β
