Chapter 103: Imperial Capital Fengyun is just a puppet
The scene is very embarrassing, how to break.
Morton's stalemate did not allow the scene to ease in any way. But after all, after so many years, you can immediately regain your senses after a moment of loss of control.
"Your Highness, your words are too serious, I can't afford it. I'm just angry with Lance, how can I take it seriously. Morton tried to obscure the gravity of the conversation.
"I think that's what you think, angry words are the truth. Lance interjected nonchalantly.
"Say, who are you going to represent?" Peng Xiu's tone was still calm, but the sword on his body was already unsheathed.
As soon as Peng Xiu's sword was unsheathed, the crowd of people who followed him immediately followed suit. Although there were not many of them, the strength of their momentum far overshadowed the people brought by Long Xun, and they also overwhelmed the priests and guards who were still surrounding the flower hall, exuding an astonishing momentum, making the servants who were a little closer reflect a few steps back.
This is another imminent touch, but the situation is more tense than the last time, and it seems that it is like a line that has collapsed to the extreme, and it may explode at any time.
Morton looked at all of this and weighed it again. He is not an impulsive person, but he has been in a high position for too long, and no one will challenge his authority for a long, long time, which makes him somewhat forget the source and balance of these rights. He is the link between the Purple Kite Empire and the Bright Holy Court, in the Purple Kite Empire, his respect is because he represents the Bright Holy Court, and in the Bright Holy Court, his respect is because he maintains the Purple Kite Empire.
But he can't actually represent anyone, he's just a symbol, just a prop.
And the most important thing is that this prop doesn't have to be him, even if he dies that day, as long as the empire doesn't attack the Bright Holy Court, as long as the Bright Holy Court doesn't devour the royal family of the Purple Kite Empire, then they will always maintain a peaceful relationship with each other, and there will be new props between them.
And today, even if His Royal Highness the prince in front of him kills him. What can the Holy Court of Light do? The Bright Holy Court may pretend to send an investigation team to investigate what happened today, maybe a misunderstanding, a transaction can completely cover his death, and it will not even bring any substantial harm to His Royal Highness.
Of course, he can fight to the death with this prince today, and even kill this prince and Lance, who has been entangled with him. But the royal family will not let this matter go easily. Hurting the prestigious prince and hurting one of the future heirs of the monarch is a heavy blow to the Purple Kite royal family, and if it is not pursued, it will not only be not allowed by national law, but also hurt the face of the royal family. Purple Kite wanted to say that he was only a supporter of the Bright Holy Court, not a follower of the Bright Holy Court. And if there is such a thing as the bishop hurting the royal family, it can be an excuse to support it. And in order to repair the relationship, the Bright Holy Court will hand him over regardless of whether it is right or wrong.
No matter if today's war really starts, whoever wins and who loses, in the end he will lose. The mouth is happy and the time is cool, and the regret is chased to the crematorium.
Morton sighed in his heart, he was really lucky to get home today. He slowly knelt down and bowed.
"I don't dare. The minister is the courtier of the purple kite, and the most loyal servant under the badge of the purple kite. Swear in the name of my badge that there is nothing to the royal family
The heart of rebellion has no hostile intentions towards you, Your Highness. It was a mistake before, but it was never the original intention. But Wechen also knows that it is difficult to recover the truth when it is covered with water, you have to hold Weichen accountable for his own punishment, and please punish His Royal Highness. โ
Although Morton's attitude made the people in the mansion decline for a while, his momentum was already half a cut shorter than others, and the leader knelt down, and the others still wanted to move. But at the same time, they were also relieved, at least they didn't have to fight to the death with that group of people. Some of them even had unsheathed blades.
"How do you say that now? That's not the attitude you had just now. Lance again sarcastically mocked Morton.
Morton didn't have much of a head and didn't speak directly.
"I don't want to pursue it, as long as you tell the truth, I can also treat your words today as if I haven't stopped. Peng Xiu said lightly, still unable to hear his feelings. ใ ...@ๅ ่ดน้ ่ฏปใ
But Morton's intuition told him that Peng Xiu was extremely concerned about this important news, and he seemed to be extremely anxious in his heart.
"I really didn't catch the Japanese shadow friend. If you violate this statement, you will surely perish forever, and you will never have mercy on the goddess of light. Morton said solemnly.
There is no more serious oath for a member of the Cult of Light than to swear by the Goddess of Light.
Although Peng Xiu hadn't spoken yet, what he wanted to ask was indeed something related to this. Morton's oath made him believe that Morton was not lying, even though Morton's faith may not be so real, but as a bishop, he knows how sacred it is to swear in the name of the goddess. Morton is not a child's play, and he will not take this lightly.
Originally, Morton's suspicion was smaller than the two in the Streamer Pavilion, but at this moment, he swore again, and Peng Xiu no longer pinched the problem, but directly made a request. "Hand over the map of the Streamer Pavilion. โ
Morton always felt like he had been hit with a bit of a mind today. How did it become a map of the Streamer Pavilion again, and this is clearly a deliberate request, as if it was not decided at random.
"Your Highness wants the map of the Streamer Pavilion? That's just a place built by Wei Chen for the little girl to play with, how did it make His Highness interested. "Morton obviously didn't want to hand over the map of the Streamer Pavilion either, he knew best what was going on down there, who was concerned.
"Now I just said that I wanted a map, and I didn't say that I would outflank the Streamer Pavilion directly, and you will reply to me if you think clearly. Peng Xiu's eyes were full of coldness.
The reason why there is no direct outflanking is not because of the impact, nor is it because of the lack of strength that is difficult to fight, but because of the fear that there will be a leak through the net after the snake is frightened, if the Sun Shadow is transferred from other secret passages in advance, or directly killed the Sun Shadow and hides the corpse, so not only did the people not be rescued, but things went in a worse direction. That's a consequence they can't accept.
"I have sworn by my goddess of light, what a heavy oath this is, why does Your Highness still not believe me!" Morton's face changed, and he continued to struggle in a sad and angry tone.
"Who am I suspicious, don't you have a spectrum in your heart? Who are you hiding in front of Your Excellency Streamer, I can not investigate, but today I have to move in Streamer Pavilion. Before you find him, don't say that you are the Streamer Pavilion, it is the entire imperial capital, the entire empire, the whole block
I've searched all over the mainland. Don't wear down my patience. Peng Xiu's words have fully explained the importance of the sun shadow to him.
Morton nodded somewhat decadently to one of his servants. The servant turned around and walked towards the main fort. Morton looked at the decision in Peng Xiu's eyes, and felt a little uneasy in his heart, he didn't even want to ask what kind of evidence these people had, so he directly and publicly coerced him recklessly.
He was confident that every grass and tree in the Streamer Pavilion should be under his control, let alone hide one more person in the Streamer Pavilion. But at this time, he couldn't help but have a doubt in his heart, could it be that people were really in the Streamer Pavilion, could it be that Carmel really had the ability to do something behind his back?
So what about Susanna...... Morton didn't even want to think about it, there were so many things that had happened in the past few days, and too many things had caught him off guard. He needed to digest it.
"I'm willing to hand over the map of the Streamer Pavilion to show my innocence. Please also ask Your Highness to turn a blind eye to other matters. As for what Carmel did in the Streamer Pavilion, I can't be sure. At this time, it was already difficult to ride a tiger, and Morton could only say helplessly.
Although the other situations of the Streamer Pavilion mentioned by Moses are worth noting, and it is unknown how many people the Streamer Pavilion has imprisoned, this is not the time to care about this, and it is more important to find the person they have in mind. Peng Xiu had long expected this outcome at most. But he didn't say yes right away, but looked at Morton coldly.
Morton watched with a palpitation. For the first time in all these years, he felt the real fear from the juniors who were younger than him, and it was instinctive vigilance. He took the drawings from the hands of the servants who came quickly, walked respectfully to Peng Xiu, and presented them on his knees again.
Just as Peng Xiu picked up the drawings, several people quickly ran behind him, hurried towards Robert, and whispered in his ear. Just a few words, which made Robert look surprised. He immediately walked up to Peng Xiu and whispered.
When Peng Xiu heard this, he picked up the drawing in Morton's hand and immediately turned around. He didn't even bother to say polite words, and he didn't explain it to Lance, just walked back with Robert. The others did not hesitate and immediately followed. Only a stunned Morton was left.
Looking at the backs of a group of people, Morton immediately got up. "Go, look it up, what did they find. Then I'm going to find Kamel to meet me. If Althea is here, bring them with you at once. He commanded in a deep voice. It's also time for him to find out what's going on.
"Xiao Xiu, when did it happen, so urgent. Lance asked as he climbed on his horse. But before his words were finished, Peng Xiu was already disappearing.
"Is there news of the Shadow of the Sun?" Lance had to turn to Robert, who was still on his horse like him.
Rob nodded. "There is news, the people who are staring at the Streamer Pavilion have watched from the opposite side of the Streamer Pavilion see two women walking out with a person who seems to be a small shadow. Robert said briefly. Then he also waved his horsewhip and followed the direction of Peng Xiu's departure.
Others heard Robert's explanation
, Mi Jia Mijian and the others were all happy, and they quickly got on the horse to keep up.
Peng Xiu waved his horsewhip in front, just to hurry, and to hurry up, he didn't want this hard-won news to become illusory.
Ah, a few screams came from the mouths of several burly men, and then they fell to the ground without incident. And what knocked them down was a delicate girl.
She had a small dagger glowing orange in her hand, flying like a hummingbird with life, and under a few bright lights with orange afterglow, she knocked down the few people who suddenly appeared in front of her, and before they could speak, her instincts were not good, and she effortlessly knocked them down.
"It's so heavy. Instead of helping, a blue woman lifted the person on her back, "Miss." Who did this guy offend, even if he tortured him like this, there were still people on the periphery to chase him. Fortunately, Miss, you wisely installed the hedron just now, and you just used it. โ
"Okay, let's ignore those things for now, let's treat him first, he's dead, and our clue will be broken. Let's go. โ
"Where are you going? Going to the hotel won't let us in. โ
"Remember the imprint we left on the side of the city wall now? Let's see if there are any other clansmen in the imperial capital. โ
"Miss is so smart, she has already thought of a countermeasure. Miss, why are you taking off this man's clothes? He was in a daze, although he looked good......" The woman in the blue dress blushed and turned her head when she saw her strong and burly chest.
"Shut up, who else are you trying to bring in if you don't cover him?" The woman in the pink dress also blushed and scolded the servant, covering Sunkage's body and face with her black clothes.
"Let's go. โ
