Chapter 67 Meetings
The next day, the royal capital, it was really an undercurrent, and many people were naturally extremely shocked when they learned about the affairs of the Marquis Ike family, after all, it was the number one family in the kingdom, and they didn't expect that the mansion would be cleaned by the wind patrol overnight.
Of course, this does not mean that the Ike family is finished, because the Ike family is also a field marquis, with a medium-sized city and two small towns as fiefs, and the city mansion in this royal capital is just a station that symbolizes the Ike family's influence in the kingdom.
What really needs to be cleaned is the city and town and the family castle in between, of course, it is not the Wind Patrol to worry about, the current Wind Patrol is just to ban the entire king to avoid news leakage.
Of course, the news can't be leaked, but many citizens in the city have already been boiling over this half-truth.
For example, in the corner tavern where Leo was at this time, two adventurers were heard talking there.
"I heard that no, the Ike family's mansion was directly confiscated last night, and the Wind Patrol and the city guards jointly dispatched, and it is rumored that the Ike family did not leave a single living mouth. A burgundy-clad adventurer said mysteriously.
......
Sure enough, there were already a lot of black lines on Leo's forehead, and with a faint weakness, he looked at Bella beside him, "Is their news so inaccurate?"
"My lord, how can these adventurers in the tavern get any accurate information? Naturally, which one is the most exciting to listen to," Bella seemed to be accustomed to it, and said very calmly, "If it continues to ferment, I am afraid that there will be more outrageous." ”
"How is it possible, Marquis Ike is also a famous person in the kingdom, so he won't be wiped out in one night. Fortunately, there seemed to be an adventurer who maintained a normal human IQ, and retorted.
Hearing this, Leo's eyes lit up slightly, and he looked at the adventurer with a little approval, and nodded secretly, yes, there are still people who keep their heads clear, thinking like this in their hearts, Leo also focused his attention again, and listened to the adventurer say again, "I heard that it was the new patrol envoy of the kingdom who did it, and it is rumored that he fell in love with a very beautiful woman at the same time as Marquis Ike, and then he was jealous, but he suffered a loss.
Then he took the Wind Patrol to do it directly to Marquis Ike, it shouldn't be to raid the house directly, maybe he went to the door, and the fart was so scary to be spread by you. ”
Burst......
Bella on the side coughed lightly and forcibly held back the smile, and the speechlessness at the corner of Leo's mouth became more and more obvious, and he poured a glass of ale into his mouth fiercely, and then shouted in a low voice, "Go." ”
"My lord, our behavior this time, but we have already looked for evidence in advance, and there is indeed a problem with the mansion of the Marquis of Ike, no matter what, we are doing things according to the rules, there is no problem, I met those officials for a while, you definitely don't have to worry. Bella on the side also said.
"Well, it's okay," Leo nodded, knowing what Bella was worried about, last night's movement was too big, the Marquis of Ike's mansion directly resisted, and the two groups of people fought in the royal capital, which was even beyond his previous expectations, Marquis Ike's forcible charge and the opponent's absolutely strong strength were really beyond Leo's expectations.
This time, many officials obviously also have opinions in their hearts, so many lords, nobles and officials mean, naturally they want an explanation, this time the dynasty meeting, I am afraid that there are many bigwigs who are not good.
Of course, Leo was not very jealous, just as Bella said, the evidence they got before was enough to search the Marquis Ike Mansion, and the rest of the matter was even more logical, he was full of confidence, and seemed to think of something, Leo spoke again, "Our evidence has been filed, there is nothing to worry about."
I estimate that His Majesty the King's convening of the Dynasty Council this time should be more for the changes in the Kingdom of the Raven Realm in the north, and it has little to do with the affairs of the Marquis of Ike's Mansion. ”
"I hope so," Bella also sighed slightly and nodded.
"Hurry up and count the proceeds of the raid on the Marquis of Ike's mansion, you personally supervise it, and remember not to miss anything," Leo said again, as if thinking of something.
"Don't worry, my lord, there will be absolutely no problems," Bella also looked very reassuring, he was a little more calm and calm than Brown, and his temperament was more calm and meticulous.
......
"Sure enough, Marquis Ike didn't come!"
"The rumors are true, could it be that the dignified Marquis Ike was really taken down by the newly appointed Wind Patrolman? This is too crazy, even if the Wind Patrol supervises the kingdom, but Marquis Ike is also a field marquis, and he is also a Wind Patrolman, it is too arrogant," the majestic and majestic kingdom boss looked quite indignant.
However, several bigwigs in the Ministry of Rule of Law laughed and did not say anything, they naturally knew everything, Marquis Ike was inseparable from the serious case of Wang Du three days ago, and there was not much sense of righteous indignation at this time.
At this time, the figure of King Ulrik, dressed in full costume and wearing the crown of a fiery lion, appeared here, and many high-ranking officials of the kingdom who were already exchanging grievances also stopped talking and bowed in unison.
"Everyone," King Ulrik spoke, and all the nobles also gathered their eyes, "I have received an angry news, just yesterday, the Duke of Almad of the Raven Kingdom has gathered a large army, gathered the lords of the two castles of Oldenburg and Darkfalcon Castle and fifteen small towns, and headed south to the Icy Rain River, heading towards the northern frontier of my kingdom. ”
What the!
Suddenly, a sound of surprise sounded in this huge palace, and many great nobles changed color together, compared to the disaster of the Marquis of Ike that they were concerned about before, the large-scale invasion of the Raven Realm Kingdom was obviously even more worthy of their attention!
"Your Majesty, this is obviously Aldemar's coveting of my Lion Realm Realm, he is so arrogant, we can't get used to him!" said a stout man with an old face, his voice mixed with great anger, obviously very angry at the behavior of the Raven Realm Kingdom.
This is Duke Elfwan, and his Lion Lake City is the closest giant city to the Raven Kingdom, and the relationship with the Raven Kingdom has never been very harmonious.
"Your Majesty, this is Aldemar's provocation, he has already started to mobilize the army, what we need to do now is to immediately start mobilizing our soldiers to prepare for the threat from the Raven Kingdom. Another important member of the kingdom said, obviously, everyone didn't think that the Raven Realm Kingdom would have much kindness to the king.
"Well," King Ulrik nodded faintly, and then seemed to think of something, and glanced at everyone slightly, "I guess you are all wondering about what happened last night, I'll tell you myself."
Marquis Ike collaborated with the enemy and treason, seduced with the Griffin Knights, and implicated in a serious case in the royal capital, and when the patrol envoy went to search last night, Marquis Ike took the initiative to admit and tried to resist, rushing out of the Lion City.
Thankfully, the patrol made a good plan, so that Marquis Ike's trick failed, and achieved quite a lot of results, well, Count Leo, you can tell everyone personally. ”
The eyes of many nobles converged on Leo who walked out slowly at this time, and his heart was also shocked, Marquis Ike really caused a lot of trouble, and it was like that, and King Ulrike was right, I didn't expect this country nobleman to be very sharp.
As Leo roughly recounted what happened, many nobles also changed from listening to one or two questions from time to time, and it was obvious that Leo had done enough homework in advance, and the answer could be called a fluent answer, of course, those who dared to ask were naturally those big nobles.
Gradually, everyone looked at Leo's non-negligent description, and nodded secretly at the same time, there was also a little more jealousy in their hearts, this new patrol envoy, who seemed to be quite shrewd, did not seem to be easy to get along with.
Then, when Leo said one of the results of the battle, Umr, the deputy head of the Griffin Knights, all the upper-class nobles present couldn't help but be shocked!
