Release that Witch Chapter 932: The person impossible met

...

Hofford Quinn is holding wine cup, standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the study, and staring at the city covered by night.

This is the center of Dawn, and it is also known as the capital of the night. The lights are centered on the Rising Sun Avenue, extending to both sides, like the same leafy tree of light. And the tree is the most famous hypermarket in the kingdom, and countless treasures flow from here and there every day. For merchants, night is the beginning of their lives.

To maintain this splendid brilliance, the daily consumption of candle, firewood and kerosene by Kingdom Capital is an astonishing figure. Fish fat from the eastern harbor and firewood from the north hills are continuously transported into the city by ships. In this industry alone, it is conservatively estimated to feed nearly 10,000 people and more than a hundred businessmen.

This is just the tip of Kingdom Capital's commercial trade.

If it ’s normal, one of the great pleasures of Hofford is to enjoy the night view of Shining Light City. Under the joint management of the Moore royal family and 3 Great Families, the city has changed from a wasteland to a well-known prosperous place today, among which the ancestors continued Give.

But today, he is inexplicably tired.

The night view of Shining Light City looks the same as in the past, but it is still gorgeous and moving, but beyond the range where the light tree cannot shine, the faint undercurrent can no longer be ignored.

Even in the face of such brightly lit territories, he felt intense uneasiness.

Maybe I'm really old ... Hofford took a sip of the wine slightly, and the bitterness in the mouth seemed to be better than sweet.

"Father," the study door was opened, and a young man walked away from come in. "Baron Alphons of Northwind City wants to meet you."

"No," Hofford said without looking back, "Just say I'm sick."

"But ..." He hesitated for a while, then waved to the old housekeeper.

The latter nodded immediately, turning around and exiting the study.

Seeing that only two of them were left in the room, the man was a little worried, "Father, this is the twelfth noble you refused. Even me, I know that there is something wrong in the palace. The purpose of these foreign nobles entering the city is already obvious. If you do this, you may make them mistakenly believe that ... "

"What's wrong?"

"Misunderstood ..." He bit his lip. "You are still on the side of Anpei Moore Your Majesty."

"Horne ..." Quinn Earl turned around and frowned at the intended successor of Quinn Family, "Do you think it's a wrong thing for Glow 3 Great Families to stand by Lord of Dawn!"

"But now Your Majesty no longer needs us," Horne summons courage said, "Since the army suffered a fiasco defeat at Hermes, he has never asked you to discuss political affairs! As an Imperial Prime Minister, you cannot even step into the palace, Even the outer city patrols have also been replaced by mercenaries. You see who is called into the castle every day by King. Now he only needs Clown, linger and singing woman! "

Earl does not have answer, but looks at wine cup in silence.

Horne is only 18 years old now, and even he can see what it means behind "noble from all over Kingdom Capital", other local noble impossible didn't notice any change. In fact, when he heard about the defeat of the army, he expected the arrival of more than 10,000 troops on this day. Most of the town's feudal lord participated in it, hoping to scrape a piece of meat from the giant that was about to fall. . However, the end result was that not only did they not get any money, they lost all their lives.

If that's the case, the key is that Lord of Dawn is back alive, but his Knight group is completely damaged. When Anpei embarrassedly returned to Kingdom Capital, the news almost spread. This is equivalent to meeting two conditions at the same time, someone needs to be responsible for this failure and the unfulfilled promise; and the power possessed by Anpei, it is no longer possible to dispel other noble's impetuous thoughts.

These noble who entered the city silently and visited during the night are a clear signal. They undoubtedly want to see the response of the 3 Great Families, and then decide whether to attach or unite, but there is absolutely no answer to this that will maintain the status quo.

Hofford can guess the thoughts of the group of people with their eyes closed. Since Hermes has lost so much, naturally it has to find other places to make up for it.

"Father," seeing him not talking, Horne was a little anxious, "It's not ten years ago, and Anpei Moore is no longer that Moore Your Majesty. Look at Loki Family! Now Otto Loki is still locked in the palace! You are Imperial Prime Minister has a high prestige among the people. As long as you stand up and pull on the other two big families, those noble will definitely head you! "

"Stand out?" Quinn Earl's eyes narrowed, a hint of danger in his tone.

"Uh ..." Horne choked for a moment, and he lowered his head in horror, murmuring like answer and justifying himself, "You don't actually have to stand on the side of Anpei Your Majesty, do you?" Otherwise, why should you call yourself ill and can't see anyone. If you are an old King, you will certainly persuade those noble personally, and the stability of the kingdom is the most important thing. "

Hofford sighed when he heard the words, he was still a little too young, "Even if it is anyway, do you think the Anpei Moore can't see this?"

"What?" Horne froze.

"I bet there are several pairs of eyes staring at us right now, including who I met and where I went, Anpei must know." Earl returned to the desk and sat down, "You Guess if I saw those noble, what would he do to me? Do n’t forget, even if he lost the entire Knight group, the control of Kingdom Capital would not be weak. From the day of Anpei ’s ascension, he started to replace personal guard and the castle guards! Blatantly rebels under the eyes of the other? Do you think those feudal lord will raise soldiers to rescue me when he puts the noose around my neck? "Speaking of indignation, he couldn't help but shoot Get off the table, "Why today, always come to me from outside noble, not Loki Family and Tokat Family, do you understand now!"

Horne took a deep breath, "Why don't you go back to the territory first? At least your Knight and mercenaries, plus the recruited serfs, even if he wants to be against you ..."

Earl shook his head, "Quinn Family has been here for too long. Branches, distant relatives, industries, forces ... even if I can quietly leave the city, I can't take everyone out. As long as there is any wind and grass moving, they will not have Good end, I ca n’t make such a reckless move. In fact, my stay in Shining Light City is a guarantee in itself. Seeing sickness is the limit I can express, except that there is nothing more to do . "

It is closely connected with Kingdom Capital. This was the place where the family was proud, but now it has become his deadly weakness. This has to be said as irony.

"Really ... but I don't think so." Just then, a strange voice sounded suddenly outside the door.

Hofford suddenly changed his face. The speaker was obviously not a servant or guard in the house. Otherwise, impossible made such an offensive move, and the housekeeper should stay outside the door. Why did the person not respond when he spoke? ?

"Who!" Horne was equally astonished. He hurriedly turned his back and wanted to find a self-defense weapon, but in the end he could only hold a candlestick.

"It's me," the door opened in response, and in front of Hofford Quinn, was a strange and familiar blonde woman, "Do you remember me? Lord Earl."
