Eighth Crown

Chapter 643: Accused of Unfounded Charges

The Knight Commander sat at the head of the living room.

And Aigelei stood in the center of the living room.

The captain of the knights looked down at Aigelei below, his face as dark as the bottom of a pot, while Aigelei looked solemn and said nothing.

At first glance, it looked like Aigley was being interrogated by the knight leader.

But the actual situation is similar to this.

"Aigley Saiyat, the crime of lying about military information and deceiving the knights into dispatching is not something that a little noble daughter like you can bear."

The knight leader sat on a chair, crossed his legs, pinched his mustache with one hand, and looked at Aigelei below with a gloomy expression.

"I waited for the knights to sleep in the open, and drove for two days in a row to get here, but what I saw was a peaceful scene. You should understand how sinful your behavior of lying about military information is, right?"

Which eye did this guy see that this was a peaceful scene?

Wasn't it enough that I deliberately allowed the monsters to destroy and kill?

Liu Xia thought so in her heart.

More than 80% of the entire town and surrounding villages were destroyed, with nearly 10,000 casualties. If such losses can be called peaceful, how else can the situation be called tragic?

"I have already said so, Knight Commander."

Aigelei stood upright in the center of the living room and responded without fear: "Everything I said on the magic phone is true. There was indeed an army of monsters that attacked the Saiat Territory two days ago, but with the benefit of With the help of a powerful adventurer, the situation has been brought under control. However, there are still monsters remaining outside the city. You can send your knights to investigate and prove that what I said is true."

Although her answer was straight and straight, there was indeed no lie in her words.

However, this kind of rhetoric is obviously not enough to deal with a high-level national official who is deliberately looking for trouble.

"This cannot conceal the fact that our Knights are on a journey in vain."

The leader of the knights didn't even look at her, his face was full of scorn, "Our kingdom's knights are the highest combat force in the country. They are not a team that can be easily dispatched. This time you made an exception because you said the situation was extremely serious. of."

"As long as I report to the king that you are uniting with the enemy to deliberately lure the knights out of the royal capital, and if there is another conspiracy secretly, I can easily deprive you of your noble status and send you to prison."

This guy didn't even have the slightest intention of covering up, and started to threaten Aigele openly.

However, the status of the knight leader was far higher than that of a noble child like her. Even in the royal capital, he was a high-ranking national official who held real power. As long as he said so, not many people would dare to speak against him.

In that case, even if Aigelei is not guilty, she may be forced to admit unfounded charges.

"Can you be considered a knight who protects the country like this?!"

As expected, Egret became angry. Her almond-shaped eyes widened, and she glared at the knight leader with a righteous and awe-inspiring glare, "Besides, it is impossible for the Queen to just sit back and watch your conspiracy succeed!"

When it comes to fighting, marching and fighting, Aigelei is obviously a good player.

But when it comes to politics,

She was completely clueless.

"It's really stupid. If the queen is still here, how could I do such a thing? I'm kind enough to tell you. It's such a coincidence that when I left the royal capital, the queen also left the royal capital. Now it's The king is handling domestic affairs on his behalf."

A proud smile appeared on the face of the knight leader, and the two mustaches on his lips were raised very high, "So no matter what you say, no one will believe it."

"But of course, if possible, I don't want to do those troublesome things, but you have to know that I have a lot of knights under my command who need to be fed. They would have had a lot of military exploits to gain, but it's a pity that you lied about the military information. Because of this, I can only return empty-handed this time... So, do you understand what I mean?"

The head of the knights spread his hands and made a helpless expression, "You have to come up with some reward so that I can make up for the dissatisfaction of the knights under my command."

This is his purpose.

In other words, it requires money, and it is a large amount of money that is enough to make up for the entire knights.

Lord Seiyat himself is a powerful nobleman. After many years of management, he certainly has very rich assets under his hands.

If he was still alive, with his powerful position, no matter how jealous the knight leader was, he would not dare to attack him rashly.

But now he is dead.

He died in this disaster very frustrated.

There is only a mountain of gold left waiting for him to dig, so is there any reason for him not to do it?

As for Aigley? She was just a daughter of a noble. She had no strength and was good at playing with political power. He had plenty of ways to deal with this little girl, but it was far from enough to make him feel afraid.

In fact, he had taken this trip in hopes of repelling this wave-like disaster, thereby gaining a reward from the king and being promoted to a more powerful position.

But this time the disaster was repelled by an unknown adventurer at some point. Wouldn't the credit go to that adventurer, and he didn't even gain a little bit?

In view of this, he naturally came up with the idea of ​​fighting the autumn wind.

As long as he gets all the assets of the Saiat Territory, it will be a huge harvest, no less than the reward for repelling the wave. This move can be described as quite clever.

In the living room.

The knight leader became more and more proud as he thought about it, and even almost laughed out loud.

"I reject!"

In the hall, just when the knight leader fell into delusion, Aigelei's cold words sounded out, "The property left by my father is to be used to pay rewards to the adventurers who defeated the monsters, and to rebuild the town. Yes, I will never leave a country like you to be a worm!"

Aigelei had no intention of compromising and refused the knight leader's request very bluntly.

"That's a pity. It seems that you are indeed a spy working with the enemy."

The captain of the knights deliberately looked pitiful, and then said in a sinister voice: "Knights, take her down and put her in a prison, and do whatever you want."

It doesn't really matter whether she agrees or not.

If he agrees, he can legitimately inherit the property of Sait Leader. If he doesn't agree, he can also accuse her of an unfounded crime and then confiscate Sait Leader's house and still get the property.

In this way, even if the queen returns to the royal capital in the future, she will not be able to say anything without evidence.

Aegelei's face showed an expression of extreme humiliation, but her back was still straight, and she even reached out her hand without any trace and grasped the sword at her waist, obviously intending to resist to the death.

"Hello."

At the moment when the Knight Commander had just given the order to capture Aigelei, a voice with no trace of joy or anger sounded from outside the door and reached the ears of several people in the living room.

"There is also a reward to be paid to me among those assets. Are you planning to take them all away?"
