"Adult, is a nobleman from Sonder! Hu Keqili walked on the gravel on the ground, and beside him, several murderous guards escorted the trembling man. Middle-aged nobleman came over

　　

"I just want to find a safe place to rest. I'm not a bad person. I can pay for it!" The middle-aged nobleman was obviously a little scared, and explained to the guard behind him, the guard But no matter how many he is, he lifted him directly from the ground and fell heavily on the ground,

　　

　　 "Don't hurt me, I'm really malicious!"

　　

The middle-aged nobleman lay on the ground to beg for mercy, and the ground was covered with some pale grass. He wore the customary braided alternate-breasted clothes of the Sonder nobles, and the sleeves were embroidered with the golden lines of the higher nobles The long yellow hat rolls aside

　　

　　 "Aren't you a Sunder?"

　　

Seeing this scene, the fat man's eyebrows frowned slightly. Although he had never been to Sende, with the rise of trade on the northwest coast, other Northwestern merchants and nobles also appeared on the northwest coast. Among them, Denia and There are the most areas in Senden. Compared with the rigorous and unspeakable habit of Denia, they are completely different from the neighbors of Senden. They are generally more talkative and like to make a lot of noise in the tavern. It is often self-proclaimed as a native of the Northwest.

　　

　　 "Yes, this adult is right, I am a Sender!

　　

Hearing the voice of the fat man, Noble Sondren nodded quickly. He did not expect that the adults in the mouth of this group of culprits turned out to be a somewhat calm young man. Besides being overjoyed, he quickly took out a certificate from his arms. Proof of your own identity, raised by hand "This is the proof that the Principality of Senden gave me the border, and there is also your country’s signature on it, which can prove that I am not telling lies."

　　

The fat man didn't care about any proof. He came over from the opposite side, squatted his body, and took a look at the nobleman's face with the stick in his hand just now. Under the blaze of the campfire, the middle-aged nobleman The hair is the iconic scalloped head of the northwestern nobility, like a watermelon skin upside down on the head, although the hair is falling down on the ground, the hair is still incomprehensible.

　　

"Obviously cleaned up with eggs. In this era, except for the nobles who are stupid and rich, ordinary people will not spend such unjust money." The fat man grinned slightly, it was boring, it was really a noble, the fat man was close to the guard Made a gesture

　　

　　 "Help him up!"

　　

　　 heard the order of His Majesty Falcon, two stout guards pulled the middle-aged nobleman like a dead dog from the ground,

　　

　　 "I'm sorry, I hope I didn't hurt you! Hurry up at night, always be cautious." The fat man gestured to the middle-aged man, please sit down,

　　

"It's okay, it's daring late at night, understandable!" The middle-aged nobleman moved his ached limb and smiled bitterly at the fat man. "My name is Angelio, the servant of Marquis de Sbury, Lord of Sunderbina. It was the **** of my wife and sister Xiaoxin to Xinhai City. The road was blocked in front of me. I had to stop. There were so many places where I could camp. The other places were already crowded. Only there are some empty places here. I really don’t know about this place. It’s an adult’s camp!"

　　

　　"Mrs. and little sister? You mean that carriage. No...

　　

　　. . . . "The fat man pointed at the wagon brought down by the middle-aged noble just now with a wooden stick

　　

　　 "Adults can rest assured, if they are not convenient, they can rest in the carriage." Angelio nodded by default. His eyes subconsciously glanced at the murderous guards not far away. They were all ten meters away, and suddenly lowered their voice and said

　　

　　 "This adult, if it were me. I would never choose such a soldier as a guard"

　　

　　 "Oh. Why?" The fat man froze unexpectedly.

　　

"Frankly speaking, I can feel that most of them have killed people, have blood on their hands, and are not the kind of one or two people!" Angelio looked serious, almost speaking, almost Let the fat man faint,

　　

　　Fat guys want to say that these guys did kill people, don't kill them, what to do with them! This Sundren is really like a legend, not an ordinary extrovert personality, he even speaks bad things about his subordinates in his own face, or he is too good-natured

　　

Angelio saw the fat man's slightly raised eyebrows, an expression of wanting to laugh, and said that the young man in front of him was the first brother who led the caravan for the first time. He said bitterly, "I know this reason sounds It’s a little funny, but it’s definitely something worth noting. In our town of Sende, there have been several incidents in which soldiers salivated the goods and killed their employers halfway. Among them, there was a person I knew who was killed. , Lord Edley, the financial officer of Bina County, hired a team of mercenaries ten days ago to **** the tax for this quarter to the capital. As a result, no one had seen him after the county, until three days ago, Someone found his body cut into six sections in the Anli Forest, twenty miles outside the capital city. The taxes and mercenaries were gone!

　　

Angelio's voice stopped, and there was a faint expression on his face. "It was because of this incident that the capital suspected that the Lord Marquis of Sbury guarded theft, but the tax itself was not important, but the time of the incident That's wrong. His Highness His Highness Locke just returned from Kyoto, and the master of the county levied a third of the tax to send it over, just to please the future duke, "Return from Imperial Kyoto?" "

　　

　　 The corner of the smiling fat man's mouth solidified, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. Ten days ago, what a coincidence.

　　

　　"His Highness Locke’s mother’s mother’s family is Kyoto’s Rila.

　　

Mother arrived in Kyoto,” Angelio Shen said, “Everyone knows that Lord Duke’s body is no longer good because of a typhoid fever in April. At this time, His Highness Locke was recalled from Kyoto University. In fact, he was already arranging the Principality The future, only such a thing happened in Bina County. It was undoubtedly a humiliation for Master Locke. The adults were afraid of accidents, so they arranged their wives and women to the new sea city on the northwest coast. If there is any scruples in Sende, then there is only the northwest coast."

　　

"It's really an unexpected harvest!" The fat man picked the fire with a wooden stick. The imperial meeting of Gaul Kyoto was held ten days ago. At the meeting, the decision of the Emperor Gaul to establish the Northwest General has been issued, although The candidate has not yet been announced, but sending someone to intervene in the heart of the Northwest is clear and undoubted,

　　

　　The fat man once thought that if Gauls want to intervene in the Northwest affairs under the name of the Northwest General, they must have a sufficient foothold.

　　

Since the initial agreement in the northwest, a clear division of north and south has been formed, headed by the northwest coast in the north, and Denia and Essende in the southwest. I still think that the core of the future control of the northwest lies in Germany Niah and Sonder, Gaul may not see this,

　　

The Duke of Denia is a strong man with a strong body, a rigorous style, and a simple and regular life. He has a hundred thousand troops with excellent combat strength. His relationship with the northwest coast is not bad. Especially after the completion of the new sea city on the northwest coast, Germany The region of Niah is more closely connected with the northwest coast area, and it has become a community of interests.

　　

But Sundend is different. Sundend is an old power in the northwest region. It has always been its own boss in the south. Facing the weak Julius family, it is also the first to raise its rebellious flag, Duke of Sundend. Although he is already a 60-year-old drooping old man, he still shows his ambitions, because in the interior, Sonside is more dependent on the Gaul Empire in terms of power,

　　

　　 "It seems that the other party's layout has already been unfolded, but I don't know it at all!"

　　

The fat man clenched his fingers into a fist and took a deep breath. It seems that the old Duke of Sonder finally chose a path of no return. It is conceivable that if it were not the unexpected rise of Denia and the strong suppression of the northwest coast, This old man who wants to be the master of the Northwest for a lifetime may have long waged a war against the Northwest. Now he has the support of Beijing and the capital. Combining the two aspects, if you want to choose an incision that can enter the Northwest, you will find it Germany is undoubtedly occupying the time and place, no wonder that the army of Sunder has been mobilized more and more frequently on the border.

　　

　　 The sky was bright, the carriage on the road was finally dragged on, the road was clear, and a large number of caravans turned the wheels and continued to head in the direction of Xinhai City,

　　

The sunlight shone on the ground from the gap between the leaves above the head, and the breeze was blowing. The fat man took his red pull wind from Hu Keqili. The guards sorted out their equipment and followed the black guard armor. , The murderous body of the guard spread more and more,

　　

Angelio lying next to the fire for a night, only to find that he actually spent the night with a group of soldiers, he stared at it all stunned, hesitated for a while, then came over with some embarrassment, I touched my head and said to the fat man

　　

　　 "I'm sorry, I don't know that you are a member of the army, this adult, if last night, I hope not to worry about it!" Angelio looked a little afraid.

　　

　　 "Last night? Haha, I don’t remember!"

　　

The fat man smiled indifferently, turned his horse, and the news brought by this unseen man was more interesting than his joke. This may be regarded as God’s favor for himself, or from Gaul Kyoto This hand is really a bit unexpected

　　

"In this case, I don't know if this adult can let us go along!" Angelio's face showed a trace of worry, and he looked at the direction of the carriage. There were two blurry figures. From the costume, it should be Is a middle-aged lady and a girl

　　

　　 "Of course, anyway from here to the top of Xinhai City for a long time! I am not in a hurry"

　　

　　 The fat man readily agreed. In fact, he also saw that the attendant named Angelio clearly concealed something,

　　

　　If he is just suspected, he hurries to send his wife and daughter to other countries. It is estimated that this county guardian is either paranoid or timid.

　　

And the attendant named Angelio actually saw from the beginning that he was an army man, deliberately leaned over to camp together, and deliberately asked to be on the road together, all the actions were to cover up one thing, the whole night In the carriage that refuses to come down to rest, there are secrets that do not want people to discover

　　

The carriage immediately followed the guard cavalry. Many caravans passing by were curiously looking at the strange combination of this team. They secretly guessed that there must be a big man in the carriage escorted by the army. Cavalry in front, carriage behind

　　

"Angelio, do we have to be with these people? I always feel terrified when I see these soldiers." The middle-aged lady in the carriage protruded half her head ugly, with a trace of displeasure on her face, and a golden curl. , Looks exquisite, slightly blessed, but does not affect its beauty, but shows a bit more grace

　　

　　 "Ma'am, with them, at least we don't have to worry about those who follow us!"

　　

　　Angrio rides on a black horse and leans over to whisper

　　

　　"As far as I know, the army on the northwest coast is very high in status, and in some cases, it can even be killed directly

　　

Those who offended them, unless those people ate the bear heart leopard and ran out to stop, otherwise they could only watch us enter the Xinhai City safely, as long as they boarded the boat leading to the opposite side of the sea, even the most outstanding The chasing team will have no choice for your Highness! Otherwise, all sacrifices made by Lord Duke alone as bait will be in vain."

　　

"Yeah, those who came down from Kyoto to follow Locke's palace were too vicious. They took control of Lord Duke, and even their highness was going to be killed. It was really unexpected that His Royal Highness was so desperate that he was going to kill his father and younger brother!" The middle-aged lady remembered that day and whispered slightly pale

　　

Angelio glanced into the carriage. A girl wearing a bright yellow skirt was lying on the table in the carriage. She seemed too tired and had fallen asleep deeply, but at the age of seven or eight, if not The two populations called His Highness, who would have thought that this was a boy,

　　

"It’s a half-brother, but it’s cruel, but it’s not uncommon to see that the hunt team is not too tight, and we don’t need to make His Highness dressed as a man! Although he comes from a distinguished background, besides me, my servant and you are poor. No one, no one, Angelo smiled and shook his head bitterly into the New Sea City, and proceeded according to the plan. The Duke had already arranged it, at least to ensure that His Highness lived across the sea! "

　　

　　 "What about you? Are you going with us too?" The middle-aged lady looked at him eagerly, with a kind of vibrato in her voice

　　

"I can't go, you know, these people's noses are spirited, I'm doing my duty as a servant, and lead them around in the city!" Angelio looked indifferent, seeming to have been expected "until they found out and were cut off My throat is sore"

　　

　　 "You just don't want to live like that? Still remember it..." The middle-aged lady's sad eyes are like a clear water

　　

　　 "Why do you want to live? You always need a reason to live!" Angelio looked away, avoiding the middle-aged lady's gaze, looking at the distance with a blurred look, a sorrow flashed in her eyes.

　　

"I don't remember what happened back then. You know, my family was secretly executed by those people on the night of their escape, and my wife and three-year-old son turned into ash,

　　

　　 "My only hope now is to watch you leave this land with your highness.

　　

　　 In fact, I should be fortunate that if the marriage contract was still there, the person who died three days ago was you and our son. Now, at least we still have the memory of being alone for three days, dead! It's better than living in endless thoughts for the rest of my life"

　　

"Angelio..." The middle-aged lady finally chose to be silent, and the past was like a smoke, and it was unbearable to look back. If the fat man saw this scene, he would think of the report sent by the dark thorn about the Duke of Sondend. One,

　　

Lok Sidi, the youngest favorite son of the Duke of Sende, because the first wife held herself as a member of the Kyoto noble family, and could not continue to stay in this remote area of ​​the northwest. Before twenty-one years ago, he took his son to Kyoto alone. In a posture where the old and the dead did not communicate, the Duke of Sende was ashamed of his heart, and he focused on the **** of the northwest until he was fifty-four years old. Only then did a noble waiter girl give up the second son, from the day of birth The Duke of Sondren announced that this son is the heir to the Principality of Sondren.

　　

　　 It seems that in the midst, the wheel of fortune in the northwest begins to accelerate,

　　

The fat man deliberately slowed down in the sixth downhill ahead. He has found that behind the slow-going horse team, a team of more than a dozen people is also following, and at the same time slowing down the speed, this team appeared Was an hour ago

　　

Leading the team was a young man with a grim look, wearing white mail with delicate patterns and a white cloak behind him. The crotch horse was obviously more expensive than the horses used by the general caravan, followed by ten behind him. Several people, either with long swords or curved bows wrapped in animal skins~lightnovelpub.net~ Their gaze has never left the carriage in front. This kind of gaze has been seen by fat men, it is the murderer's. moonlight

　　

　　 "It seems that this is the real secret!"

　　

The fat man made a ready gesture to Hu Keqili, Hu Keqili nodded him in comprehension, fifty guard cavalry divided into two teams, separated from the queue, the horseshoe raised the fresh mud on the ground Speed ​​up and go forward

　　

　　 In the front is Xinhai City, and there is a section of road in the front that passes through the forest. Unless the other party does not do it, if it does, it must be the forest!

　　

"Master, let's get started, and there is the area of ​​Xinhai City!" At the back, a burly brawny man rides up and says in the ear of the young man. "It's a densely populated area, as long as the other party gets on Boat, we will have no more hands-on opportunities"

　　

　　 "Zia, are you crazy, but the soldiers in front, if you attack, do you know what the consequences will be! We will be cut to pieces!"

　　

A young woman with a black hood next to the young man said, in a voluptuous yellow skirt, with a purple flower letter in the saddle, and hanging on it was a curved bow called an artwork. The curved bow shape is as tempting as her graceful figure,

　　

"No hurry, the forest in the first mile!" The young man who took the lead squirted out a cold sentence (to be continued) [This text is provided by Qihang Update Team @冰山berg123] If you like this work, you are welcome to come Referrals and monthly votes, your support is my biggest motivation. )
