Chapter 334 Whoever violates my territory will be punished even if he is far away
Of course, it is impossible for Zhou Huan to say these words in front of the emperor, but his expression must be seen clearly by everyone. Yang Hao naturally saw Zhou Huan's expression, and immediately felt overjoyed, but he was also open.
Yang Hao listened to the words of this nobleman, waved his hand expressionlessly, and then said: "Killing the nobles of the empire without permission, or an earl, it must be a crime." But listen to him, and if he is guilty, I will never forgive him. ”
Before the nobleman could say anything, Zhou Huan said: "I killed this earl, but when I killed, who knew who he was." The sword has no eyes on the battlefield, I don't know how he died, why do you say that I am the earl of the empire. ”
The old man glared, and then said, "You are talking nonsense, it is clear that you captured Lord Earl Fawcett, and then killed Liwei. ”
Zhou Huan sneered: "What about the evidence, I will say that you slander if you talk nonsense." ”
"Anyway, if the Earl dies in your territory, that's your responsibility. You are to blame for the death of the Earl, so you are guilty of it. ”
"Hmph, what a joke, let's not say that he died in an accident in the war, even if he wasn't, I have a reason to kill him. Zhou Huan squinted his eyes and said murderously.
When the minister heard what Zhou Huan said, his body began to tremble. Of course, it wasn't all because of Zhou Huan's anger, but also because of the murderous aura that Zhou Huan had just released, which made the minister suddenly feel cold.
"It's so bold, who do you think you are, you are just a little viscount, to dare to say such a thing above the court, it is extremely arrogant. ”
At this time, another nobleman stood up. This is a middle-aged man, strong and strong, who looks like he has good strength, Zhou Huan looked over, but found that this person was wearing an orange official uniform. If you look at it according to the official position of the empire. The man was supposed to be a marquis.
Marquis Batson. Belongs to the second only person in the empire to the Duke of Violet. His strength is also on par with Duke Violet, and his family has been passed down for hundreds of years, and in some ways, even Duke Violet is inferior to him.
And he is a nobleman with a long history and glory, and in the eyes of such a nobleman, everything that does not conform to tradition should be dealt with. Like Zhou Huan. It is completely inconsistent with the interests of the nobles themselves, and Zhou Huan should be wiped out.
He is a traditional aristocratic mentality in his bones, and he will defend his interests to the death. Even a new nobleman like Duke Violet has something to look down on in his bones.
So he hates Zhou Hwan and hates a new shili to break his tradition. It's like he hates Duke Violet, but Duke Violet has the favor of the current emperor. And his strength is not weak, if the two of them fight to Zuihou, it will also be a lose-lose ending.
However, he did not allow a new shili to be mixed in with it, especially since this person would not do things according to the rules of the nobles at all and forcibly kill the earl, which was what he hated the most.
Although he had no evidence that Zhou Huan was not trying to capture Count Fawcett and kill him, he was able to be sure. This is also the reason why he very much wants to kill Zhou Huan, so this time he stood up.
Zhou Huan looked at the middle-aged man. There is also a little awe-inspiring in my heart. Such people are not dealt with on their own. But in this court, I want to have the upper hand. It is necessary to rely on this emperor.
Zhou Huan glanced at Marquis Batson twice and said, "I don't know why Lord Marquis said I am arrogant, and why I am bold?"
Marquis Batson sneered: "You can directly say that killing a nobleman is a great rebellion in itself. ”
"What is a great rebellion?" Zhou Huan also said coldly: "In my eyes, no matter what we do, as long as we do things for the emperor Bixia and for the people, what we do is a good thing." But it's in the way of bixia, then we are rebellious, and we don't know whether it's right or not. ”
Marquis Batson said coldly: "Yes, you just spoke wildly above this court, which is a manifestation of not taking Bixia in your eyes at all, so I said that you are rebellious." And you killed Earl Fawcett, which is even more rebellious. ”
Zhou Huan suddenly laughed, and haha said: "Joke, if I am like this, it is a big rebellion, then I ask who will be loyal to Emperor Bixia." And as far as I know, Fawcett attacked our Enriel territory without the approval of Emperor Bixia. ”
Zhou Huan said this, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then said: "Our Enriel territory, but Bixia is divided, and it also belongs to our empire. And Fawcett, actually attacking our Enriel territory without Bixia's order, is simply an insult to our Bixia, and even a deception, such a thing is really a big rebellion. ”
Marquis Batson was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that he seemed to have fallen into Zhou Huan's plan. The least advantageous enemy among them was that Count Fawcett did not send troops according to Bixia, but sent troops himself.
His attack on Enriel's territory this time, if it is defeated, it will not be anything. After all, the emperor has no way to say anything about the territory that has been defeated, and attacking a territory is like having benefits.
In his mind, Fawcett would be able to obtain a lot of wealth by attacking this Enriel territory. When the time comes, just give some benefits to other nobles, then you will definitely have nothing to do.
But the problem of Fawcett failed this time to attack, not only failed, but even his own life was confessed. In this way, then his sins may have come to pass.
As the object of attack, that is, Zhou Huan, who is the bitter master, is here. He told the Earl of Forcett at court that there was no way for them to do it.
Zhou Huan shouted loudly: "I want to ask, Count Forsyt can be regarded as a big rebellion against us without Bixia's approval!"
Zhou Huan seized this mistake of Count Fawcett and kept attacking. Indeed, Earl Fawcett is not here, and even if he is, it is difficult to explain this one thing.
Without the will and permission of an emperor, he attacked a territory of the empire. According to the law, this can be counted as a rebellion, but it can be executed.
However, in the case of the nobility, such a crime is not a major crime. In this shijie, the supreme power is not all the emperor, and a large part of it belongs to the nobility. If the nobles say anything together, it will be difficult for even the emperor to punish them.
After all, the nobility occupies a lot of the resources of the empire, and if all the nobles have begun to rebel, then the empire will definitely be paralyzed. Therefore, even with Yang Hao's eloquence, he was very disgusted in the face of these nobles who kept shouting once they lost their interests.
The law was very binding on the nobility, but that did not mean it. It's just that once the aristocracy commits something, it is deliberately covered up, which is an unspoken tradition that everyone knows, but no one will do.
But Zhou Huan is different, he is a person who dares to say anything and do anything. He directly uncovered this layer of window paper, and suddenly exposed the Zebulun family to the highest point of legal constraint.
This crime is a big one, which is why Marquis Batson Weishenme doesn't like Zhou Huan. Because such a rule-breaking existence is not allowed. Batson tried his best to defend his aristocratic interests, and Zhou Huan was a person who ruined their balance, so he didn't like it very much.
Marquis Batson can be regarded as an old man in the empire, and he also has a very haode thinking in these politics. His mind spun rapidly, and then he said, "Count Fawcett sent troops because there are aliens in your territory. Accepting foreign races without permission is tantamount to rebellion, and it is a great rebellion for you to do so. ”
Zhou Huan's heart was awe-inspiring, but he said: "I have just explained that there is a reason why there are alien races in my territory. And Bixia doesn't have any prejudices against foreign races, so what is my sin? Besides, even if I'm guilty, then Bixia will be able to govern, and where is it Earl Fawcett's turn to attack me?"
Count Batson also sneered: "Who said that he attacked you, Count Fawcett just went over to check." As for the attack, do you have any proof?"
Zhou Huan was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Marquis Batson to play such a trick, and suddenly said angrily: "The Zebron family led the army to attack our territory, but thousands of pairs of eyes were watching, and you actually said that they didn't attack us without authorization?"
Batson said coldly: "That's just a group of mercenaries, but what do these mercenaries have to do with Earl Fawcett." It doesn't have anything to do with it, so those mercenaries attack that, what does it have to do with Earl Fawcett. ”
Zhou Huan laughed angrily: "It's a joke, it's just right and wrong." But the fact of this shijie is not just that you can reverse black and white with just one mouth. ”
Batson also smiled: "What is reversed, black and white is not distinguished, how do you know that what I said is not a lie." Have you seen Count Fawcett attack you, and who can prove that the Zebuluns went against you, and you say you didn't kill Earl Fawcett on purpose?"
It's his turn to play politics and eloquence, Zhou Huan is still a complete rookie here, maybe in some aspects, Zhou Huan's eloquence is good, but he still understands too little about these political things. (To be continued.) )
