Spindu glanced at Reggie with disdain. In his opinion, what Reggie just said was just a crude threat made by a rough man, which was far from real verbal negotiation.
Of course, he did not dare to say these words. He only had twenty guards with him, and his weapons were taken away by Jiawen. It was obviously not a wise choice to continue to anger Reggie.
"Please at least give me an answer," Spindu continued to attack Chris, "Do you want to take His Majesty here for the rest of your life, or follow me back to your hometown?"
Chris gasped hard, but couldn't say a word. Something blocked his chest, and there was a fire burning in his throat.
"It's a pity that the glory of the royal family has been tarnished like never before," Spindu sighed. He took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Reggie, "This is a letter from His Majesty the King to you.
I have completed my mission and bid you farewell, Viscount Victor."
Reggie took the letter and sneered: "How many kings do you have?"
Spindu didn't answer. He felt there was no need to say a word to Regiduo. He was about to leave on crutches when he heard Chris speak: "What's wrong with your leg?"
Spindu was startled. His leg was hit by an arrow during the celebration. Of course Chris knew about it.
"I admire your loyalty very much." Although the anger was burning in his heart, Chris' tone was very calm. "The snatcher crippled your leg, but you still served him slavishly."
Spindu said: "He is my king. No matter what he has done to me, loyalty is the obligation of a minister."
Chris said: "He is not your king, he is your master, and you are not a subject. You are just a walking dog (an analogy learned from Reggie), and you are also lame in one leg."
Spindu sneered: "Say such vulgar words, can you save some dignity? Can it make you feel better?"
Chris shook his head and said: "I don't feel very good. It makes me sick to look at you again. The king said before he died that he would expel all those who betrayed him from the kingdom. You are the real lost dog.
Take your family and get out of Ryan Country, otherwise I will hang your whole family on the pillar of shame."
"King, is he dead?" Spindu looked at Chris in surprise. This was the only useful information he had collected during this trip.
"Yes, he left and went to the other side of the Styx with his hatred for the Snatcher." Chris told the news of the old king's death without any concealment. This was the only way to make Charlemagne retreat. "Go back and tell
That shameless regicide, patricide, and snatcher, tell him that every citizen of the Lion Kingdom will never forget this hatred!"
Spindu was not in the mood to argue here. He couldn't wait to tell Charlemagne the good news. This was more important than anything else.
"It's such a pity, it's such a pity..." He squeezed out a few tears and turned to leave again, but suddenly he heard Reggie shouting: "Wait a minute and bring my reply to Prince Charlemagne."
"Reply?" Spindu looked at Reggie in confusion, "You just received a letter from His Majesty the King, how could it be possible..."
"I've already read the letter, and it's not that troublesome to write a reply." Reggie spat on Charlemagne's letter, and with the wetness, he stuck it directly on Spindo's face.
I convey my sincerity to Prince Charlemagne, and say that I am always at his service.”
"This, this..." The trembling Spindu didn't know what to say. Reggie reminded: "Although you are lame, you'd better run faster and don't let this letter freeze on your face."
.”
Spindu ran away. He did not dare to take off the letter from his face. It was not humiliating for him to have a face full of saliva. Being able to report the death of the king to Charlemagne was the most important thing.
.
Reggie was somewhat unwilling to give in. He shook his head at Chris and said, "You're really bad at talking."
Chris smiled and said, "You may not be much better at talking."
"Why did you tell him of the king's death? You knew it would make Charlemagne happy?"
"I know he will be happy, and I know you are disappointed."
Reggie took away his smile, looked at Chris calmly, and said: "I will not use your father's name to seize the land of Lane Country. Whether you believe it or not, I just want you to be the king, and then from you
I have my reward in my hand."
Chris also lost his smile: "Whether you believe it or not, I did this just for you and for the legitimacy of the throne. Charlemagne launched the war. Now that the old king is dead, he will soon retreat."
"Why do you always think I'm afraid of him?" Reggie felt humiliated.
"You are not afraid of anyone," Chris said with rare tenderness in his eyes, "but I don't want you to get hurt. You still need time to strengthen yourself."
The two looked at each other for a while, feeling a little embarrassed. Reggie turned his face to the side, coughed and said, "I am a suspicious person, and I don't believe you so easily."
Chris smiled and said: "I am also very suspicious, but I just believe you."
…
Spindu returned to Zilin City. He ignored all the details and focused on informing Charlemagne of the old king's death.
Charlemagne was very excited, his body was trembling, but his face still pretended to be very calm.
"Tell Reggie to bring my father's body back. I want to bury him properly."
"Why worry about the corpse," Spindu said with a smile, "Your Majesty, Chris has personally admitted that the old king is dead. He will never lie about this kind of thing."
"Go to Reggie and ask him to send the body immediately!" Charlemagne could not tolerate any ambiguity on this matter. If he could not see the body of the old king, he would always have some hidden worries in his heart.
But Spindu really didn't want to return to Shattering Snow City. He knew that he was not so lucky. Reggie didn't care about the rules among nobles. He could kill Spindu for any reason.
He tried every means to persuade Charlemagne, but was reprimanded by Charlemagne: "You idiot who is greedy for life and afraid of death, believe it or not, I will hang you now! Tell Reggie Victor to send my father's body immediately, otherwise
I will turn Shattered Snow City into a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood!"
Compared with the old king, Charlemagne was much more cruel. Spindu did not dare to speak anymore, but General Andrew rescued him.
"Your Majesty, we cannot send troops to Shattering Snow City yet."
"Why not?" Charlemagne said angrily, "I brought my soldiers to the north to enjoy the snow scenery?"
"Your Majesty, we are running out of food. We don't have enough military rations, and we are not sure of victory."
"I remember that Blue Bay just delivered 400,000 pounds of grain. Have they all been eaten?"
"The grain was not delivered to our military camp," Andrew was forced to tell the truth. "Warships were dispatched from Camel Island, our fleet was ambushed, and the grain transport ship was sunk."
"Camel Island?" Charlemagne said in astonishment, "Are we guilty of the Golden Eagle Kingdom? Why did they attack us?"
"Your Majesty," Andrew said helplessly, "I just received the news that Camel Island now belongs to Reggie Victor."
