...what's going on outside? Heiluhou walked to the window a little strangely. This is where their captives are kept—in the barracks, away from the palace. But surprisingly, it wasn't a loud noise. On weekdays, no one comes here at all... It may also be that most of the local soldiers have withdrawn, making it appear empty. King Solomon lived up to his title. He was really as benevolent as the former Israeli king Solomon. He didn't give these captives any hardship. Instead, he let them eat and drink without worry, and even appointed someone to train the soldiers. Under the rigorous physical training, the prisoners had little energy to think about other things. But it wasn't torture. Because the top quintile of performers. Not only can you get meat every day, but you can also get an extra egg as a reward. And the first three-tenths to seven-tenths is a small piece of meat every day, broth, salted fish and cakes. The last nearly one-third of the people also got some broth and cakes. Only those who do not obey orders at all will suffer from hunger. But other than that, they were not given any cruel punishments. These three days have passed. On the contrary, the expressions of the prisoners improved a lot.

Of course, these nobles do not need to participate in these trainings. Hei Luhou also wanted to experience it at first, but he quickly gave up—his aging body couldn't bear the intensity of training. However, Heiluhou also had doubts in his heart from time to time. King Solomon trained them so strong, isn't he afraid of their rebellion? No need to work, you can eat enough food, even meat, just by exercising. It's okay for cavalry, but for ordinary soldiers, it's better than what I had in Gothic. However, during these days, Hei Hou, who had been observing in secret, seemed to have felt some knocks on the door.

The one who came to train them was the fat-looking Malajiji. But unlike his appearance, this is a very flexible fat man, and he still has time to yell at them. he did. Just keep berating and cursing them. Except for those who were anxious to attack him, he didn't punish anyone else. And every night. Tupin, the guide, will come among them, heal their injuries, wipe off the sweat on their bodies, and give them lectures in a soft voice. Although the leader of Turpin was the wisdom of King Solomon, before that he was a great and virtuous pope candidate. His reputation is far and wide, especially in Gothic—among this group of soldiers, some of them grew up listening to his legends. Although they were very dissatisfied with that annoying guy named Malajiji, they respected Turpin very much.

At this time. Hei Luhou vaguely had an idea. These two people... I'm afraid they didn't do it on purpose? Let one person come out to be scolded first, and then let another person do good deeds... He is quite familiar with this routine. But does it make any sense? Does insulting these soldiers make them loyal to King Solomon?

He observed secretly for two days in a row. Heiluhou didn't think clearly about what King Solomon wanted. Now when the three of them were about to leave, they heard loud noises coming from outside the house.

Heiluhou's heart skipped a beat. Did not push i out. Instead, he leaned in front of i and listened quietly.

"They really only intend to redeem those three adults? No... Where did those idiots have the guts? Doesn't he know who our fathers are?"

"The news is accurate, this is what the Earl told us personally.

"He has a good conscience

"That group of donkeys would definitely not dare. Maybe they will keep you, but we will be taken away sooner or later...if they don't want to offend a third of the nobles in the country.

"But they are the remaining two-thirds, two to one.'

"I said. Don't be complacent! The Earl said that His Majesty has passed away and a new king is yet to be determined. The former nobles may not be the future nobles!"

"Everyone, don't panic, they will definitely rescue us. It must be divided into two groups. Sooner or later, don't make noise...

"Come on, where do you have the confidence? If His Majesty dies, there will be chaos in the country. Whether your father and brothers can save their lives is uncertain!"

"No, I think it's not a bad thing to simply stay in Frank as a commoner.

"What you said...

"I want to eat...I don't want to go.

Wait, what's going on here? Heiluhou was suddenly taken aback.

Didn't he specifically tell those two people not to leak the news to these soldiers? Don't they know that this will cause distrust and riots?

And... Earl? Which Earl?

Among the three of them, there were two earls, Yi Heiluhou, who made a decisive decision, went upstairs and called the two earls down. They were packing their bags and preparing to leave. Hearing this, he was also surprised, and hurried to the door.

"I didn't say it. Your Excellency the Marquis."

One earl immediately said: "I did not show that letter to anyone.

"I don't even... I don't even care about it," another earl said dissatisfied, "Why are you so eager to explain? That's because...

"Okay, okay," Marquis Heilu immediately advised, "It doesn't matter who said it. Maybe it was a rumor spread by King Solomon.

That's what he said, but he was still secretly sure in his heart that at least one of the two people in front of him was lying - the reason was very simple. If it was really King Solomon who sent people to spread rumors in the army, then what he said must include "the soldiers will be sold into slaves" and "King Solomon will be the new king of Goths". And when he relayed the story to the earl, he kept his eyes open and only gave them a piece of letter paper. So the latter sentence became his inference, while the previous sentence was directly hidden and left unsaid.

But among the information these soldiers got, it was the version he relayed—Bi Jing Solo i] It is impossible for the king to know what he said to the two earls, when they talked about it, they even drew the curtains Yes, and there is no one at the door. So, now only Heiluhou knows. One of the two must have slipped up by accident. But he couldn't get to the bottom of it - because once he wronged someone, it was tantamount to offending the innocent earl for no reason. And this mistake has nothing to do with him at all, let alone him to blame... So he wisely chose to pretend to be confused and muddled.

"It doesn't matter who said this, because it's a righteous act. Black Deer Hou Kong said forcefully: "Those people also have the right to know their own situation. In this way, when they are rescued by us, they will be more grateful to us.

"That's what you said." Makes sense. When they heard this, their hearts moved and they looked at each other.

Ben is sure. These words must have been spread by Heiluhou. King Solomon sent the letter to the Lord of the Black Hart. He was not sure whether the Marquis would show all the letters to the two of them. So if King Solomon wanted to deliver false information. He will definitely use the name of "Marquis of the Black Deer"... After all, he is the commander in chief, and the two of them are just nobles accompanying the army. To put it bluntly, it is a hostage plus a vase. Because in addition to the northern army, this army also has a large number of people who were conscripted from their two territories. Only by letting them join the army themselves can they deceive the private army they raise, and the selection will be more careful. Otherwise, the biggest possibility is that a wave of old, weak, sick and disabled people was randomly sent up. Therefore, the prestige of the two of them is definitely not as good as that of the Marquis.

Although they are not very smart, they are not stupid. Taking a step back, King Solomon didn't need to use such a small trick. But at this time, there is no need to tear yourself apart with the Marquis. Anyway, I didn't say which earl it was, even if it was liquidated afterwards, as long as the time came to identify another person, it would be fine. Moreover, as Heiluhou said.

Nor do they think the event itself is wrong. Although it may cause more trouble.

"So what do we do now?"

A count asked: 'To appease them? "

"That's a must...I'll do it. My reputation in the army is pretty high.

Hei Luhou said in a deep voice: "Even if it's a temporary lie, at least they can't let them riot now. King Solomon won't let me spread this matter. If I let him know, I won't be able to do anything good."

"Anyway, we will definitely rescue them," said another earl, "the ransom is actually not too expensive.

"Alright.

After discussing for a while, the three nobles quickly determined their next plan.

But the three of them never noticed that there was a shadowy crow staring at them silently outside the window. Agares, the owner of the crow, stood on a high place and looked down at all of this, with a happy smile on the corner of his mouth.
