Earl Austin, who had been on the battlefield all his life, was convinced after seeing this Duke.
The Duke of Lorraine glanced at Earl Austin, his eyes cold.
Then he saw his grandson, Franz, lying on the ground wearing only his underwear.
The Dragon Flame man next to him stared at him without fear at all, and the Duke of Lorraine smiled coldly.
As expected, the Longyan people are all barbarians who don't understand etiquette. Even if they are developed, they are still a group of barbarians. They don't even care about the most basic etiquette when they see nobles.
He didn't even give me, the Duke, a gift.
When Franz saw that the person coming was his grandfather, his eyes lit up and his face felt like a flower blooming.
"Grandpa, you are here, please take a seat." Franz immediately stood up and arranged a seat for the Duke of Lorraine.
When he glanced at Earl Austin and Liu Sheng from the corner of his eye, a trace of resentment flashed in the corner of his eye.
Now that my backer is here, let me see how you two behave.
After Count Lorraine took his seat, he glanced at Count Austin and Liu Zheng coldly and said indifferently.
"Count Austin, why did Franz offend you, and you still want to kill him with a sword?"
"Speak out. If it is Franz's fault, Duke, I will personally make amends to you."
Earl Austin immediately put away his sword, saluted slightly, and sighed in his heart, the Duke of Lorraine had too much power.
It's not something that a count like him can compare to.
However, although the Duke of Lorraine loved Franz, he was still fair and strict in some matters.
"Dear Duke of Lorraine, Franz has withheld a batch of wine from me."
Lorraine looked at Franz next to him and asked, "Is this happening?"
Franz knew his grandfather's temper. Although he loved his grandson, he did not dote on him blindly.
If he really talks about the fact that he robbed Earl Austin of a cart of wine, he is framed and falsely accusing Earl Austin of collaborating with the enemy and treason.
His grandfather, Count Lorraine, would not believe it. The whole of Austria knew about Count Austin's character.
It is absolutely impossible for him to betray the country by collaborating with the enemy, so...
"It's true that I withheld a batch of wine, but this car of wine was sold to Austria by this Long Yan man. I don't know who bought it."
"The situation between us and Long Yan is tense now. Whoever buys it is a traitor to the enemy!"
With a smile on his face, Franz looked at Count Austin: "Count, do you think this wine is yours?"
Earl Austin's expression changed, these words are powerful.
As long as he didn't admit it, this batch of wine would have nothing to do with him, but Liu Sheng, who sold him the wine, was truly labeled as a spy.
The situation is tense now. If a Long Yan man like him is labeled as a spy, he will definitely die.
"I..." Earl Austin hesitated. If he admitted it, he would be at risk.
If he didn't admit it, he would be adding insult to injury. Earl Austin didn't want to feel guilty in the future.
But whether he admits it or not, Liu Sheng is bound to die.
"I sold this wine, but I didn't betray the country or the enemy!" Earl Austin finally said categorically.
Liu Zheng was stunned and felt warm in his heart.
Franz was stunned for a moment, and then a coldness flashed in his eyes. He didn't expect Earl Austin to admit it like this, and he even found a way out for him.
As long as he doesn't admit it, everything will be fine.
Okay, you can't blame others for committing suicide.
"Count Austin, you actually betrayed the country. I really misjudged you." Franz immediately jumped to his feet and shouted.
