Chapter 55: A Strange Request
"Schul Brand?Marquis Brand?" Leo frowned slightly, the Brand family, this is a big family in the middle and upper echelons of the royal capital, it can be called a quasi-wealthy existence, no wonder the Brown deputy envoy in front of him has a bitter face.
"Is the news confirmed?" Leo asked, but did not wait for the other party's answer, since it was reported by Brown himself, I am afraid that he has also investigated a few times, frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Don't alarm the Marquis of Brand first, Brown, you bring me Brand's file." ”
Hearing this, Brown also immediately handed over a heavy parchment scroll, and Leo took it and slowly flipped through it, his brows gradually frowning.
Seeing this scene, several high-level Wind Patrol executives also held their breath slightly, and for a while, the entire office was extremely quiet.
Leo subconsciously sat down on the rather luxurious Savonarola chair, leaned back slightly, and gently tapped his fingers on the ancient desk, the percussion sound echoed in the huge office, making the high-level of the Wind Patrol even more awe-inspiring.
"Huh?" Leo's gaze paused slightly, landing on a line of small print on the parchment scroll, Yu Pande was the Minister of Etiquette of the Kingdom in 347 and served for a year for a year, which is about eight years ago.
"This Shul Brand once served as the Minister of Manners of the Kingdom?" Leo looked at Brown beside him, looking a little puzzled, after all, the Minister of Manners of the Kingdom has a good status, but he does not have much power, and Shul Brand was already the patriarch of the Brand family at that time, and he used to hold such an idle official position?
"Well, this is the year 347," Brown frowned slightly, looking at Bella beside him, the other party became the deputy envoy of the Wind Patrol, and before him, maybe he would have some understanding?
"My lord, the Marquis of Brand had a conflict with the Duke of Brennus, and under the pressure of the Duke of Brennus, he was put by His Majesty the King in the ceremonial court as the Minister of Ceremonies. Bella really understood, "But after all, he is the patriarch of the Brand family.
The Brand family has always been a royal party, so the Minister of Ceremonies of the royal capital did not last long, and then re-entered the Ministry of Justice, serving as the current Minister of Foreign Affairs. ”
"Duke Brenus," Leo was slightly shocked in his heart, this Shul Brand was still able to offend that one? It is also a bit interesting, Duke Brennus is also the top boss in the kingdom, from a wealthy family, extremely powerful, similar to the Duke of Alama.
Because of the unique system of the Lion Realm Kingdom, these grand dukes, even if they look at Pan De, are among the top in strength, and their family strength is far beyond that of ordinary national nobles.
"Then when he was the Minister of Ceremonies eight years ago, did Mirin Hughton ever serve as the Minister of Ceremonies?" Leo took the next sentence that made several people wonder, how did he get involved with this Minister of Ceremonies?
The conflict between Millin Hughton and Leo had already spread privately by Brown, and the Minister of Ceremonies was head-on to provoke the Patrolman, which was really a big joke, and if it was Nashuel Brand, it would be fine, and that Lord Millin Hughton was not from a great aristocratic background.
Today's status is all obtained by the struggle of Milin Hughton himself, the Hughton family started as just a court viscount, it is precisely because of this that the deterrent power of Milin Hughton is so weak, the family strength is not strong, the background is not hard, in this Lion Realm Kingdom, which is especially fighting for the strength of the family, it can be said that the foundation is extremely weak.
"yes, uh, I can't quite say that," Bella replied subconsciously, and the others were confused.
"Eight years ago, Lord Milin Huton was the ceremonial officer of the ceremonial court, and he was counted as a subordinate of the Marquis of Brand, who only stayed in the ceremonial court for eight months before leaving, and Milin Hughton became one of the ceremonial ministers of the kingdom. "Bella is obviously extremely well-informed.
"Does that mean they have a good relationship?" Leo said with a slight raising of his eyebrows, "Then why didn't Blair ask the Marquis of Brande to save his father?"
"I can't completely say that I am a friend," Bella said with a frown, "After all, he once sent the Marquis of Brand into the ceremonial court, but Duke Brennus may not be able to pick up the Marquis of Brand, but it is still quite easy to deal with Milin Huton, who has just become the Minister of Ceremonies."
Naturally, Millin Hughton did not dare to be too close to the Marquis of Brand, but if there was no friendship at all, it would certainly be unrealistic, and maybe now their family was planning to seek the help of the Marquis of Brand. ”
"Very well," Leo said as he closed the parchment in front of him with a little joy on his face, turning to the other Wind Patrol beside him, "You send someone to bring Brell here." ”
"Huh?" the Wind Patrol was slightly stunned, a little confused, and Brown on the side hurriedly said, "Brair Hughton, the eldest son of Lord Hughton of Jungle, and the heir of the Hughton family. ”
"Ah, yes!" the senior of the Wind Patrol also understood for a moment, and hurriedly responded.
......
Soon, Brell was surrounded by several Wind Patrols and came to this huge Wind Patrol headquarters, looking at the two-story building, Breel's face turned white with fright, the great prestige of the Wind Patrol was built on the bones of countless people in the kingdom.
The Hughton family is not a big nobleman who has inherited the old one, and in front of the wind patrols, they don't have much confidence at all, but they don't know, how can these wolf-like wind patrols target him? Do you think that in the absence of his father, the Hughton family can knock a bamboo stick hard?
No, my father was only temporarily imprisoned, and even if my father was still there, the Wind Patrol wouldn't have too many scruples? Could it be that the country nobles did it? How could he be involved with these notorious Wind Patrols?
For a while, Brell also thought of Leo for the first time, after all, right now, the one who had the most trouble with the Hughton family and his Brell was Leo.
"Breel," a familiar voice sounded in the gloomy building, and three figures appeared in the dim darkness of all directions, among which a tall young man dressed in a bright red aristocratic robe, handsome and heroic, who was it not Leo?
Finished!
All of a sudden, Breel's legs went limp, and the other party's appearance here was undoubtedly directly related to his being brought here by the Wind Patrol, but how could such a country nobleman have a connection with such a privileged institution as the kingdom? How is this possible?
For a while, Breel's mind was blank, but he also understood why his father was thrown directly into prison, and why Baron Walker was so jealous.
But?
Even though there are strong doubts, Blair doesn't dare to think about it anymore, the big thing is really not good!
"Lord Wind Patrol," said Blair, tremblingly, "this Leo is nothing but a country nobleman, don't let him fool you, we Hughton ......"
"Shut up, Breel, who gave you the guts to dare to arrange a patrol to make an adult," Bella shouted angrily, the sound was like thunder, and Blair's face changed again, and he subconsciously muttered, "I didn't ......
Wind Patrol!"
Breel's almost hoarse shout undoubtedly highlighted how surprised he was in his heart, and at this time he himself was even more shocked and desperate in his mind, he heard it right, that Leo Akmund, a country baron with the name of an earl, was appointed as a patrolman?
This...... No wonder his Hughton family has suffered such a big change, the patrol envoy, it is really a big man in the kingdom, even if it is not as good as those big nobles with heavy fists, but for ordinary nobles and officials, the deterrent power is too great!
"Breel," Leo said softly, looking at the trembling Brell in front of him, which was in stark contrast to the high spirits he once had, and couldn't help but feel a little bored, "Now you understand." ”
"Please spare your life!" Breel's legs were frightened, and he begged for mercy anxiously, "I didn't know the height of the sky before, and I offended you, and I ask you to be magnanimous......"
He knew that the Hughton family would definitely not be able to resist the pressure of the Wind Patrol, and it could even be said that Leo was enough to easily ruin their family, and the Minister of Ceremonies without a background was a figure in front of ordinary officials, but in front of the Wind Patrol, there was no deterrent, unless it was like the Marquis of Brand in the past, there was an extremely strong family behind him, and he was also a big nobleman.
"Stop," Leo was not in the mood to listen to the Brel's plea for mercy in front of him, and even if Brel's opening was extremely apprehensive, he was frightened and didn't dare to say more.
"Your father was a ceremonial officer before, and after the Marquis of Brand left the ceremonial court, he took over his class, are the two of you still in contact?, or why haven't you considered going to the Marquis of Brand for help?" Leo said slowly as he approached Brell in front of him.
"Ah!" Blair became more and more panicked, and hurriedly said, "Lord Wind Patrol, our Hughton family has some connection with Marquis Brand, but it is extremely weak, unless it is absolutely necessary, it is ......"
"In other words, you still have to go to Marquis Brand for help in the end?" the corners of Leo's mouth curled slightly.
"Yes...... Ahh
"It's okay," Leo said with a smile on his lips, "you go to the Marquis of Brand, and if you can persuade him to beg me, I won't pursue your father's affairs anymore." ”
"What!" Hearing this, Brell was completely stunned, what kind of operation is this? This Wind Patrol supported himself to find the Marquis of Brand to rescue his father from him?
Or rather, the Marquis of Brand should beg for it? What is the reason for this? For a moment, Brell was also greatly puzzled.
