"Mr. Reynolds, Mr. Gollum, please follow me..." A valet of the Duke''s Castle bowed to Renault and Gollum and began to lead the way carefully.
Gollum followed the squire and looked around. It was the first time he had stepped into a duke''s castle, so he was curious.
But soon he lost interest, because the castle is not much to be praised except for "big enough" and "luxurious decoration". He also keenly noticed that the castle is filled with a cold and humid atmosphere.
Obviously, compared with the new buildings of haichaoling, the living comfort of this castle is extremely poor.
Since Gollum was promoted to be an extraordinary man, he automatically obtained the qualification of "entering the house", and could pass through the castle without obstruction. He did not have to wait in the area specially set up for the servants like other followers.
Renault''s purpose of bringing Gollum this time is to show muscle to everyone and to respond to some extremely sharp questions.
In such a big Northern Territory, there''s not even one person with extraordinary style. My master is just two people. Hey, you''d better weigh up the waste materials of Qianhu kingdom. Don''t make me angry
After passing through a dark corridor, Renault suddenly saw Miss aleeti in a long white dress standing in the hall at the end of the corridor.
Seeing Renault appear, aliette''s eyes lit up, waved to him immediately, and then walked quickly with her long skirt.
After that, she turned away the servant and whispered in Renault''s ear:
"Mr. Renault, the matter is like this. The southern nobles found a crossbow at the scene of the attack of count nordrad leading the Knights'' order. There are two blood grooves on the crossbow, which is very similar to the crossbow used by your subordinates..."
"My grandfather didn''t think a crossbow and arrow meant anything, but the southern nobles insisted on confronting you face to face, but please rest assured that if your grandfather presided over the arbitration, the southern nobles would not do anything to you..."
What aleetie said about the "scene of attack" is exactly the disaster that Renault and others encountered when they went to leiyunbao. The Yankees fought with the southerners, and Renault finally became a fisherman and killed the Yankees.
He has also heard about the follow-up progress of this matter.
According to the official consensus, the Knights led by nordrad were attacked by a large group of thieves on the way to transfer, and finally died.
It''s no problem to fool ignorant farmers with this kind of saying, but people with a little insight will definitely laugh when they hear this nonsense.
Are you kidding me? More than 100 armed knights, including several awakened ones, would be killed by a mob like thieves?
How stupid should count nordred be to recruit such a group of useless knights? How can anyone who can be a count be a fool?
Even when Renault heard such shameless words, he couldn''t help admiring the despicability of the northern nobles. This is to kill each other''s people and make up lies to humiliate each other!
It is conceivable that count nordred would be mad with anger and would never give up.
But what Renault never thought was that the southern nobles would find their crossbows and arrows left on the battlefield.
Didn''t the island guards clean up the battlefield?
Very likely!
But it''s no wonder they have such a large battlefield and dense grass that it''s very difficult to clean up. There are only more than 10 members of the island protection team, so it''s normal to miss something.
What to do?
We must find a way to get rid of our suspicions, otherwise the southern nobles and the northern nobles will be staring at us at the same time, and then there will be a big problem
MMP, it''s a rare thing
Despite all kinds of thoughts in his mind, Renault just nodded to aleeti and said with righteous words:
"this is a shameful slander. On the journey to Raymond castle, we have never met any ''nordrad leading Knights''..."
Aliette immediately agreed:
"Mr. Renault, my grandfather and I absolutely believe in your innocence. The tricks of the southern nobles will not succeed..."
Her tone was so sincere that, at first glance, it was from the bottom of her heart.
But Renault knew that the little girl was a dramatist. At this time, she couldn''t figure out what to think. Maybe she was guessing that Renault was the real murderer.
After all, the northern nobles suffered even more. They lost a senior and extraordinary man and hundreds of elite soldiers. The only one who had the ability to commit a crime was Renault, a powerful and extraordinary man.
It''s just that the northern nobles planned this conspiracy, and it''s too late to cover it up. How can they break it? So they can only knock off their teeth and swallow blood.
The southern nobles did not have so many worries. After finding the evidence, they could not wait to involve Renault.
Next, allietti personally leads Renault and Gollum to the conference room where the arbitration is located.
Just as he approached the conference room, Renault heard the fierce quarrel, which was still clear and audible through the thick wooden door.“…… Rosenberg, this must have been done by you contemptible northerners. You can''t deny that the family members of Lord aeolia, the spear of Vulcan, have just given testimony in court... "
“…… Manisco, the family''s testimony is full of speculation, which is not evidence at all... "
“…… Of course, the words of your relatives are evidence. You instigate Your Excellency aoria to kill the knight from nordrad, and then you send someone to kill your excellency aoria and kill him... "
“…… That''s ridiculous, Holmes. Do you think everyone''s stupid? Just over a hundred knights, is it worth exchanging with an extraordinary one? "
“…… You crazy Yankees, there''s nothing you can''t do. Maybe you killed the Sheriff of leiyunbao and Baron Maher yesterday... "
“…… Mckeitrick, you bastard, you have so much imagination. Why don''t you write novels... "
"Bang!"
It seems that someone smashed something on the floor and made a loud noise. The meeting room became silent for a moment, and then an angry voice rang out.
"Enough! Baron Maher''s murder is a tragedy, and any wild speculation is slander until the results of the investigation come out! "
It was Prince Castro''s voice.
Obviously, this kind of "see who bite who" mad dog behavior of southerners made the Duke a little intolerable.
Renault outside the door almost burst into laughter. He pinched his fingers hard and held back the smile on his face.
At this moment, he felt from the bottom of his heart that these southerners were so talented that they could interpret "the death of Aiolia" as "killing people and killing their mouths". This brain tonic ability was so powerful.
Bull!
They even asked the family members of Aiolia to prove their point of view of "killing people and killing their mouths". They tried their best to pour dirty water on the northerners, which made the northerners feel very embarrassed and frustrated.
God assists!
I didn''t expect that these southerners, who have never met before, would work so hard to whiten the master
Renault sighed to himself, and his heart was full of affection for the southerners.
While the meeting room was quiet for a short time, aleeti quickly opened the door.
The next moment, everyone''s eyes are focused on the Renault three.
