On May 22, 204 in the Gregorian calendar of the Black Dragon Empire, the mission convoy composed of Heisuo and more than 300 subordinates went through hardships and traveled long distances, and finally arrived at the town of Flats, which is not far from the empire. Sheriff Surrey here
Mu still received the envoy as enthusiastically as last time and gave Heisuo enough face and respect.
"Congratulations to Mr. Heisuo for living up to expectations and returning safely from the Kingdom of Holy Light to escort the prisoners!" Salimu bowed respectfully and glanced at Steve Cole's uncle and nephew in the prison car intentionally or unintentionally from the corner of his eye.
In order to distance himself from the relationship and create a selfless style of behavior, Hesso invited Steve Cole and Constance out of the carriage yesterday and imprisoned them in the prison car used by prisoners. In this way, even Mi
Rodil and the Tracy family had doubts, and it was difficult to cause trouble for themselves openly, which paved the way for their next actions and made their positions and attitudes clear.
"Lord Salimu, there is no need to be polite!" Heisuo walked forward quickly, took his arm with him and said with a smile: "We won't be delayed for too long in the town of Forets. His Majesty the Emperor is eager to interrogate the prisoners, so we will wait
We will be on the road immediately after lunch."
"I understand my humble position! I will arrange a banquet for Master Heisuo!" Salimu agreed with a smile, and soon ordered his subordinates to lead the members of the mission into the center of the town. Today's town of Flats is surprisingly peaceful and peaceful, with people on the streets
The residents of the town were calm and expressionless, and they did not seem to be surprised or excited at all by the arrival of the mission.
"Interesting!" Kong Gu Jingyue, the leader of the Shanlan Kingdom who has been accompanying his daughter, sneered and whispered to Kong Gu Youlan: "Go and quietly raise some black strings and say that the atmosphere here is not right. There seems to be an enemy.
Ambush in the dark."
Konggu Youlan was startled when he heard the words, and responded in a low voice: "No way! This place is only one step away from the imperial capital, and the Salim Sheriff was also respectful and polite to Hesuo and did not dare to neglect him. How dare he behave like a tiger or a wolf?
Will he set an ambush for us and secretly murder us?"
Konggu Jingyue, the leader of the Shanlan Kingdom, snorted coldly and explained impatiently: "You stinky girl, don't you even believe what your mother said? The residents of the small towns on the roadside all have ugly faces and are hiding something secret. They are obviously
You were frightened in some way and were forced to hide something! If you don’t remind Heisuo, something unexpected will happen later and someone will plot against you. Don’t even think about asking your mother to step in and save your sweetheart!"
Konggu Youlan blinked doubtfully, then slowly got closer to Heisuo who was walking in front, and secretly relayed what her mother had just said, but Heisuo didn't say anything after hearing it. His smile remained the same, calm.
As usual, he followed Sarimu into the post house and arrived at the banquet hall that had been arranged for the mission.
"Everyone!" Salimu cleared his throat, took the lead in picking up his wine glass, raised it to the tip of his nose and said: "It is during the war period, so please forgive me for the poor hospitality! I only represent all the soldiers and civilians of Forrest Town.
, to welcome Lord Heisuo and the members of the mission for their glorious return."
With a smile on his face, Heisuo raised his glass and drank it down without the slightest doubt. Afterwards, he licked his lips, smashed the wine twice as if he was still unsatisfied, and said: "The wine is good! It's a pity that it's adulterated.
Some bad seasonings were added, which destroyed its mellow flavor!”
Salimu's smile froze when he heard this, and he asked nervously: "What does Mr. Heisuo mean by this? This wine is Qingxi wine that I have collected for many years. It has a sweet and pleasant taste, a pure and rich aroma, and has not been adulterated.
What a bad seasoning!"
Heisuo put down his wine glass, slammed the table hard, and said coldly: "Master Salimu may not know that I have a special constitution and am naturally very sensitive to poisons and drugs! Your wine is bitter.
It's astringent and tastes very bad. It's 100% drugged or something like that. Do you still want to hide something from me? Are you denying it?"
Salimu's face was pale, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He stammered and replied: "Master Heisuo knows it clearly! The villain - how dare the villain hide anything from the adults - all of this is
The order issued by Prime Minister Milo - he threatened the villain's family and the lives of the entire town's residents - forced the villain to tamper with the adult's wine!"
Heisuo laughed loudly, stood up very freely, patted the shoulder of Salimu, who was already shaking with fear, comforted him and said: "Very good! You have already done me justice by telling the truth truthfully."
! Of course you don’t dare to violate the order issued by Prime Minister Milo himself. I won’t argue with you about this matter for the time being. You can continue to be your peace officer with peace of mind!”
Salimu fell to his knees with a thump, kowtowed with tears of gratitude and said: "Thank you Lord Heisuo for not killing me! This villain will never forget you!"
"How could it be an order from my brother?" Tracy Shirley, who had been sitting next to Heisuo, suddenly stood up, pointed at the Salimu tree no longer able to hold back, and angrily reprimanded: "Don't spit on others -
—Slandering my brother! My brother is the current prime minister and has always loved Black Suo. How could he issue such an order? To murder an imperial official who serves as his minister? "
Salimu raised his head, looked at Heisuo with horror on his face, then looked at Tracy Shirley, and said with a wry smile: "Dear Miss Shirley! How dare a villain slander the current Prime Minister?
Are you joking about the lives of your whole family? Your brother indeed ordered this matter personally and arranged for the villain to execute it on his behalf! According to the original order of the Prime Minister, the poison given to Lord Heisuo in the wine should be poison, not intoxicating drugs.
That's right! The villain is in awe of Master Heisuo's supreme majesty, so he secretly changed the poison and replaced it with a harmless ordinary poison."
Heisuo gently pulled Tracy Shirley away, preventing her from going forward to hurt Salimu, and said with a smile: "I would also like to thank you for your mercy! But I don't know that General Lu Yu behind you knows
After this incident, will he report it to his master, Prime Minister Milo?"
"Lord Heisuo has great eyesight!" Standing in the corner of the hall, Lu Yu, wearing a servant costume, pulled open his coat, revealing the red leather armor and two-handed broadsword hidden inside, and laughed loudly and said: "Hei Suo and I
I have only met Mr. Suo twice in total. I didn’t expect you to still remember my appearance and recognize me at a glance!”
As Lu Yu openly tore off his disguise in public, countless red-clothed guards of the Tracy family who were ambushing outside swarmed in, and in a moment they surrounded all the Black Solo and members of the mission in the hall.
