Chapter 2219 The amount of information is a bit large
To be honest, Bud, Leiter, and the guards who followed them were all panicking until now. They never thought that things would turn out like this.
The old aristocrat Caesar is completely dead and Verno is half dead. How will this end?
From the perspective of Bud, Leiter and others, the tragedy that happened today was all caused by themselves, and they were all the ones who made mistakes.
Because they violated the most forbidden rule in the paradise!
This rule is that although they can do whatever they want in the paradise, there is a prerequisite, which is that they must not affect the physical and mental development of Xiao Sai.
This is the decree issued by the emperor!
The emperor liked Xiao Xiaosai very much and valued Xiao Xiaosai very much. He even ordered to provide the best teaching conditions for Xiao Xiaosai, and asked Hollier, an old retainer who served the imperial family, to personally teach and supervise Xiao Xiaosai.
However, today they got into trouble. Xiao Xiaosai caught him and his group committing adultery, which even caused her to lose control of her emotions and kill someone.
If the emperor were to blame, even Leite, the king, would die badly.
Bud and Leiter really didn't expect that little Sai would actually appear in the ghost place where Mary and others lived.
Precisely because Mary and others lived in an undeveloped area of the paradise, Caesar and others had no inhibitions about murdering Mary, thinking that no girl practicing rituals would come over.
As long as it doesn't affect the girls who are receiving education in the paradise, they can do anything.
But Xiao Xiaosai is here...
Fortunately for other people, even those girls who are receiving education, as long as they are not caught by the goddess Seluvinia of Paradise, they will feel more at ease and can intercede with Holier and let her protect everyone.
Secret, don't report them to the emperor.
In other words, if the person who bumped into them today had not been Seluvinia, the old noble Caesar would not have died, and Weinuo would not have been disabled.
First, because the other goddess candidates are far less powerful than Seluvinia, it is impossible for them to kill Caesar and seriously injure Weno with lightning speed.
The second reason is that the status of other goddess candidates is far inferior to that of Seluvinia.
When the guards saw Seluvinia coming, they were all afraid of her identity and did not dare to offend her.
Because of this, Little Sai approached Caesar and Weinuo without any hindrance, causing one of them to die and the other to become disabled.
Now Bud's Leiter can only obediently go back to his room and wait, waiting for Hollier's call to see if she has any countermeasures to resolve the crisis. Otherwise, even if the Caesar family does not hold them accountable, the Empire's Archduke William will
He was furious because of Wei Nuo's disability, and thus angered several of the parties involved, and would not let them go easily.
In the blink of an eye, Amanda, Xiaosai, Bud and others all left according to Hollier's instructions, and only Zhou Xingyun and others were left at the scene.
Hollier first apologized to Zhou Xingyun very solemnly, because in her plan, Zhou Xingyun and others have become indispensable.
What plans does Houllier have in mind? We’ll talk about that later.
At this time, Houllier, as a representative of the great empire, sincerely apologized to Zhou Xingyun, and made a solemn statement of condemnation for Caesar and others' actions of harming Mary.
Houllier spoke righteously and severely criticized Caesar and Weino, which even made Zhou Xingyun feel that the old woman was like a diplomatic spokesperson, and she spoke with a sense of ceremony.
What's more, Houllier really didn't regard the dead as human beings, and vigorously condemned Caesar's lack of conscience in front of Caesar's cold body.
Probably, Houllier obviously understood that people cannot be resurrected after death, and Caesar was completely cold. The dead man named Caesar would no longer be able to create benefits for the emperor in the future.
Therefore, let's squeeze out the last drop of his value now to please Zhou Xingyun and others.
Perhaps Houllier deliberately omitted Caesar and did not let the guards help him collect the body, so that Zhou Xingyun and others could watch it comfortably and relieve their anger.
After a superficial polite conversation, Houllier invited Zhou Xingyun to rest at her residence, saying that something very unpleasant had happened today, and in order to ensure the safety of Mary and others in the paradise, she planned to have a detailed discussion with Zhou Xingyun.
Hollier probably meant that although it was Caesar and others who made a mistake today, it was also her negligence in placing Mary and others in the undeveloped area of the paradise, for which she must bear a certain amount of responsibility.
Houllier wanted Mary and others to live in a private house in Paradise, so he had to discuss it with Zhou Xingyun.
Of course, the above are all what Houllier said publicly, but she had other intentions in private.
Zhou Xingyun and others followed Hollier to a beautiful garden. The main reason why she invited Zhou Xingyun to talk was to discuss with him how to guard the garden.
Guarding the paradise? Zhou Xingyun was immediately confused when he heard Houllier's words.
Xiao Xiaosai had just told him yesterday that Houllier planned to abandon the paradise and use the paradise as a bargaining chip to negotiate with the enemy. Why did he go out of his way today and say that he would defend the paradise and never let the paradise fall into the hands of the enemy?
Could this be a trap?
Hollier saw Zhou Xingyun showing a hint of suspicion, and couldn't help but said straight to the point that at first she did think about abandoning Shou Paradise.
Houllier did not hide anything from Zhou Xingyun, and told him his plan to use the paradise as a bargaining chip to talk to the enemy.
Houllier felt that Zhou Xingyun was a smart man, and believed that he was vaguely aware of their plan when he came to the paradise on the first day. Or maybe that day, Houllier was discussing the battle plan in the luxurious mansion of the nobles, and chatted at length.
Natao, although she said it very euphemistically, she would retreat if she couldn't hold on, but in fact... if you think about it carefully, you can understand her true thoughts.
Therefore, Houllier can completely understand Zhou Xingyun's suspicion.
However, at this moment, Houllier changed his mind.
To be sure, Houllier had to change his original plan because Caesar and Weno died.
Wei Nuo is dead? That’s not the case!
Zhou Xingyun looked surprised. Although Wei Nuo's injuries were serious, he could definitely be saved. Now that Houllier said he was dead, this amount of information is a bit big!
Houllier smiled meaningfully at Zhou Xingyun: "The three men of Grand Duke William's family died heroically in the battle to defend the paradise, and died tragically at the hands of the Alat Bandit and the Lhasa Kingdom Guards."
This... the amount of information was indeed a bit too much, so Zhou Xingyun didn't react for a while, but he understood the general meaning.
Hollier wanted to blame Jiangdong and blame the death of Weino on the Alat banditry and the Kingdom of Lhasa.
This old woman is really cruel. She can even deny her own people. However, if her plan succeeds, she will undoubtedly avoid a lot of trouble.
However, if Hollier wants to do this, he must kill everyone and kill everyone who knows the truth, especially the guards loyal to Weno and Caesar's guards.
Zhou Xingyun and others didn't care. In Hollier's eyes, Zhou Xingyun and others were outsiders from the Far East and would not interfere in the empire's power struggle.
The question is, what will happen to Bud and Rhett?
Zhou Xingyun thought about it for a while and then didn't bother to think about it. These two guys were not good people anyway. Houllier wanted to talk to them or kill them to silence them, but Zhou Xingyun didn't want to care.
Now Zhou Xingyun cares more about Xiao Xiaosai, but according to Hollier, she is obviously planning to protect Xiao Xiaosai.
The situation between Caesar and Weino is a foregone conclusion. Even if Hollier blames Xiaosai and leaves Xiaosai to the people of these two families, it will only make the emperor angry.
Hollier could roughly guess that the emperor had been coveting Xiao Xiaosai's beauty for a long time, and now Xiao Xiaosai was about to mature. Even if the emperor knew that he would break up with the two aristocratic families, he would keep Xiao Xiaosai.
In this case, Houllier didn't break the point and directly let Caesar and Weinuo 'die' in battle...
"Why are you hiding the truth?"
Houllier got straight to the point and expressed his thoughts, but Zhou Xingyun asked questions knowingly, as if he could not understand Houllier's intentions at all.
Caesar obviously died tragically at the hands of Xiaosai, and the person who seriously injured Weino was also Xiaosai. Why did Houllier hide the truth?
Zhou Xingyun knew very well in his heart that Houllier did this for Xiao Xiaosai, but he pretended not to know and asked Houllier curiously.
After all, from Houllier's point of view, Zhou Xingyun and his party did not understand the situation of the paradise, let alone Xiao Xiaosai's special identity.
Admittedly, Hollier did not need to explain Xiaosai's situation to Zhou Xingyun in detail. She just said lightly: "Seluvinia is the orphan of the lord of Maiba Fort. Soldiers from the Alat Bandit and the Kingdom of Lhasa invaded Maiba."
Ba Bao, when we were retreating, it was the lord and wife of Maiba Bao who volunteered to serve as bait to lure away the enemy soldiers so that we could escape safely. Their act of sacrificing their lives moved me very much. Before leaving, the lord and wife of Maiba Bao asked me to make sure
Take good care of their children, and I have promised to protect their children."
"If the people of the Caesar family and the Grand Duke William's family knew that it was the child who was responsible for the murder of Lord Caesar and Lord Weinuo in the paradise, the people of the two families would definitely not let her go. I hope that
I want to fulfill the last wish of Lord Maibabao and his wife and hope to protect their children, so I decided to conceal the truth. I also ask Your Excellency Zhou Xingyun to understand my decision."
Houllier is very good at talking, and his lies are as real as truth. If Zhou Xingyun had not known the inside story between them earlier, he would definitely have believed Houllier at this time, thinking that Houllier is a good person who repays kindness and keeps his word.
It is true that even if Zhou Xingyun knew the inside story and knew that the reason why Hollier protected Xiao Sai was not the last wish of Lord Maibabao and his wife, but that Xiao Sai was deeply liked by the emperor, Zhou Xingyun would not expose her lies.
.
From the results of the discussion, Zhou Xingyun and Houllier's goals are actually the same. They both want to protect Xiao Xiaosai.
Zhou Xingyun originally thought that if Hollier blamed Xiaosai, he would speak justice for Xiaosai on the grounds that Xiaosai was the benefactor who saved Mary.
Now it is possible. Houllier took the initiative to help Xiao Xiaosai get offended. Zhou Xingyun can not only save worry and effort, but also benefit from it.
