Chapter 44 Esdeath’s Request
But of course Su Yi didn't dare to laugh. On this occasion, he, a smiling guard captain, dared to laugh casually. He was really laying on the floor next to a cesspit, and he was not far away from cessation (death).
Regarding Esdeath's statement, the minister just smiled bitterly and was too lazy to refute anything now.
After a pause, Esdeath stood up and was about to leave, but when he reached Su Yi, Esdeath's footsteps suddenly stopped.
Suddenly, Su Yi's little heart skipped a beat. This guy must have noticed something.
Although Su Yi was a little nervous, he didn't show it directly on his face, because Su Yi knew that if he showed any clues at this time, Esdeath, a wily hunter, might smell suspicious traces. .
I have really taken great pains to protect that guy Felit. If I had known at that time, I would have just handed Felit over to General Bude. Why bother? Anyway, with the protection of General Bude, Felit is in this palace. There will definitely be no mistakes in it.
"What's wrong, General Esdeath?"
Seeing Esdeath who suddenly stopped, the little emperor sitting on the throne in the main hall suddenly asked in confusion.
"No, nothing." Esdeath shook his head, and then continued: "Are you willing to join our hunter organization and obey my control and dispatch?" Esdeath looked at Su Yi who was kneeling on the ground. He spoke slowly.
That's not the end, Su Yi said secretly in his heart, then raised his head and looked at the little emperor and said: "I'm sorry, I'm afraid I will live up to General Esdeath's kindness. I am the captain of Lord Felit's escort. I’m afraid I won’t be able to join General Esdeath’s hunter organization.”
"Oh?" Esdeath smiled in surprise, then turned to look at Felit who was kneeling on the other side: "Sir Felit, can you lend me the captain of your guard? After all, this is for the imperial capital. of law and order.”
Damn it, Su Yi was suddenly surprised and covered in cold sweat. What was going on with this guy? She had already rejected him so clearly. Why did she go directly to Felit to ask for someone? This was too overbearing...
Su Yi clicked his tongue and did not signal anything to Felit. Because of their relationship, no matter what Su Yi signaled to Felit, it would be extremely unreasonable. So Su Yi had to lower his head and place his hope on Felit. Leeteuk's wit came to him.
Felit also found it extremely difficult to deal with. On one side was the revolutionary army and on the other was the invincible general Esdeath of the empire. His position in the middle was already very small. Fortunately, Su Yi did not push him step by step. Otherwise, Felit Maybe it was so urgent that there was no room for thinking.
Felit paused for a while to gather his words, and finally said slowly: "General Esdeath, you have so many strong generals that you can still look up to a guard captain like me. I believe that with Lord Esdeath's With his strength, even if he joins the empire, there will definitely be no problem with the security of the empire. But if you take him away, then Wei Chen’s life safety will not be guaranteed. You must know that I have encountered many encounters one after another on the way to the imperial capital. Three assassinations."
"What, minister, have you been assassinated three times?"
After hearing Felit's words, before Esdeath could speak, the little emperor was the first to exclaim.
"That's right." Felit nodded unequivocally, looking at the minister standing next to the little emperor, Ernest, without any hesitation in his eyes.
"You are an important minister of the empire, but you have been assassinated one after another. The banditry in the empire is too rampant. It seems that Lord Felit really needs a reliable person to serve as the captain of the Guards. In this way, Ace General Des, go and protect Lord Felit."
Everyone in the audience had a trace of cold sweat on their heads. What is going on with this little emperor? Does he speak without thinking at all?
Esdeath's head was even more black. Su Yi was half-kneeling beside him with his head lowered and his shoulders shaking. After suppressing his smile, Su Yi slowly spoke.
"General Esdeath has a lot of things to do, so he is really not suitable to go to the west to protect Lord Felit. Moreover, the bandits he encountered along the way are not powerful. I and a few other people in the Guards can handle them. I just have one thing. Those who don’t understand don’t know whether to speak or not.”
"Oh, what does this beloved have to say?" The little emperor suddenly raised his head and asked.
"In the three waves of assassinations we encountered along the way this time, the assassins all claimed to be night raiders without exception, but their strength... to be honest, they are far away from the rumored night raids, and it is said that night raids The members only operate within the imperial capital, so why would there be people claiming to be night raiders in small towns in the far west? This is a bit unbelievable, it seems like some people are assassinating people in the name of night raids."
If Su Yiruo had something to say, the face of Minister Ernest, who was standing next to the little emperor, suddenly changed. Hearing this, the little emperor frowned and said, "What you said does seem to make sense. What do you think, minister?"
At this moment, Ernest's liver-colored expression became particularly serious, as if he was choking on blueberry cheese while eating Shoushan. That look was so funny.
But no one present dared to laugh out loud. This shows that in this palace, Minister Ernest has already accumulated great power.
Su Yi clicked his tongue and looked at Ernest with a confused and ignorant expression, as if he didn't know anything about all this, just like the melon-eating people watching.
"This has always been the reason why night raids have become more and more rampant in the imperial capital recently. Your Majesty, please think about the fact that the bandits on the border are now operating under the banner of night raids. How about that?
How long will it take for the night attack to become a symbol all over the world? Therefore, it is urgent to suppress the night attack, Your Majesty! "
Su Yi didn't expect that Ernest could be so eloquent, and he could easily win back a situation that was not conducive to him. But think about it, if Ernest was not a eloquent person, how could he have reached such a position of power in such a deep-water imperial capital. ..
