However, when Shire was taken to the nearest banker's mansion, he saw wooden poles that had been erected on the streets of the inner ring area, and corpses hanging from the wooden poles; Men, but occasionally women of varying ages.

There were also notices posted under most of the corpses, and someone was responsible for reading them, which attracted crowds of onlookers.With bursts of applause and scolding, it seemed that these citizens could temporarily forget all kinds of pain caused by war and turmoil.

In fact, as the link between the Capital Bank Group, the noble class, and the Burgundian dynasty, Charles knew most of them; among them were his former lenders and wealth management clients, as well as members of the Bank Group and leaders of industry guilds; There have even been dew marriages.

However, what reassures Charles a little is that there is no such thing as their wives, daughters and family members.Although, I don't know if the Freedom Army will deal with them separately, but at least they don't have to wear the only underwear, revealing the pampered white flesh, and display it on the street in a hideous and distorted manner.

And the few women who were hanged were also well-known/notorious loan sharks.This also made Shire feel fortunate that at least he has been acting as a middleman behind the scenes, instead of personally participating in the notorious lending; otherwise, maybe someone will cheer for him.

However, when Shire tried to talk about this topic, he was greeted with a blank stare and a sneer from the same carriage Ezreal: "It's already at this time, stupid Lord Travel, who still has the mind to pay attention to these things? In fact , This is the most respectable thing my king can bestow on these filthy vampires, and as for the more disgraceful results and fate, I believe you will not want to know."

However, when the carriage escorting Charles passed through the Mars Square, he immediately understood what the so-called even more shameful end was.It was a beheading platform for executions in the center, and it even used a special mechanism, as long as it was sent in and pulled, people's heads would roll down.

Therefore, under the high platform surrounded by those loud poor and citizens, a dozen vegetable baskets were already filled with bloody heads.The only thing these heads, old and new, have in common is that they all wear powdered wigs or high buns...

"Then... what about the family members of those who were executed?" Shocked by this scene, Shire hesitated and couldn't help asking: "I remember that there are no children among them! They who lost their family support, will there be any children?" What kind of result. Your army has never considered how..."

"Master Travel, you should take care of yourself first!" However, Ezreal looked at him with a half-smile, and said slowly and meaningfully: "Or, are you worried about your women? Don't worry, The new government will not implicate and anger casually, irrelevant people..."

"As for the people you mentioned, although most of them did not follow, their fathers, brothers and husbands took the initiative to do evil; however, their extravagant life and social enjoyment are often based on the suffering of more people who are poor, hungry and cold; So there is joint responsibility."

"Therefore, according to my king's instructions, the death penalty can be avoided but the living penalty cannot be escaped. They must accept the reform of supervised labor in the designated workplace; use their own actions to atone for their sins."However, when he heard that Charles seemed to have misunderstood something, his expression changed instantly.

You must know that although the Burgundian dynasty is brutal and authoritarian, it has never hesitated to kill and humiliate its former political enemies and losers; but at least on the surface, it is still maintaining the last dignity of being an aristocratic class. ; It is not possible to let the wives and daughters of nobles go to entertain guests collectively.

Therefore, he made up his mind in an instant, never letting such terrible consequences fall on the woman he was concerned with.At the same time, he was worried about another confidante, Laura, the current real owner of the Bowang family, who hid back to the family manor with her nominal husband...

While talking, the carriage has come to Fisher Street where dozens of banks, large and small, and affiliated financial institutions gather; and the most conspicuous and majestic building among them is known as the heart of the kingdom's money flow, the banker Trade associations/bond exchanges.

However, this place has been emptied long ago, leaving only a mess of papers and other rubbish; and in the public treasury where the industry deposits are stored, there are only piles of worthless centimetre coins left; There are dozens of silver ingots on the spacious shelves that act as facades.

The next moment, Shire, who is an important member of it, took the initiative to walk to a wall of the vault, closed his eyes and touched it carefully; finally stopped at a position and said slowly: "There is a secret door here." Go to the real secret room, maybe there will be something you want."

After a few dull blasts, the soldiers in blue shirts successively moved out from the gap in the vault, more than [-] large and small iron boxes filled with various gold coins, or jewelry, and even paperwork and account books.Then, Charles spoke again: "Yi Rui, I ask you one thing. Can you pass a word to Fran for me..."

At the same time, Paulina, who led the remaining overseas corps, also successfully subdued the remaining enemies on the southern front; and led the guard company to gallop towards the city of Seine.On the vaguely bumpy and ups and downs of the carriage, the unusually well-behaved little princess Suleim was snuggling in her arms.

"My Legion Commander, are you worried?"

"I... just feel that all of this seems to have happened too quickly, and it's not real enough." Paulina murmured softly: "From Africa, which is full of yellow sand, to the capital region of the kingdom, I just used In less than three years, it was like a dream."

"So, are you also worried?" Su Leim said, leaning on her chest in a considerate manner, "Are you worried that the lord who gave you all this can also take it away anytime and anywhere? Or are you worried about those unreasonable people in the army?" People, continue to advise you to pursue unrealistic ambitions?"

"Actually, all of this has never been a problem for you." Su Leimu smiled slightly again: "From the very beginning, you are the only adjutant trusted and close to the lord, and you can also summon and exercise his power My saint, doesn't that prove anything?"

"According to your experience of following that lord these years, I seem to be sure that there must be an irreplaceable trait or advantage in you, which is valued and expected by the lord. Therefore, you only need to maintain this Traits and strengths, everything else is small."

"In fact, you shouldn't and don't need to care too much about what other people think; as long as you consider following and obeying, the position of that adult is fine. As I know most of the dynasty allusions, as long as you That lord is indispensable, and you are invulnerable."

"Even if I have my own selfishness and position because of this, I may even violate my consistent persistence and principles." Paulina seemed to hesitate and moved: "I... just want to leave behind for the withered family. The last bit of blood inheritance. But I am worried that it will be damaged..."

"My legionary commander, then you are wrong." Su Leimu said with winking eyes and raised her head: "Using the common saying in the Western Continent, no one is perfect before the glory of God; insignificant mistakes and Deviations will make people more genuine and friendly instead of keeping them at arm's length."

"Did you forget those people back then, why did they avoid letting you go back to the city of Lyon? Isn't it because you are afraid of the power and power you can represent after the sacred lord's cultivation, and also worried about your sense of justice and lofty honor? , the potential pressure on them?"

"Thank you for your explanation and analysis." Hearing this, Polina couldn't help but pampered her head, and sighed softly: "Although I still can't completely let go of my gains and losses, at least I feel much better in my heart." It's just that after you arrive at the capital, what are your plans?"

"As for me, there is nothing to worry about; because, at the beginning, it was the holy lord who allowed me to stay by your side. Therefore, as long as I can be with you; Mentally prepared for everything adults need and demand."

Su Leimu replied without hesitation: "I grew up in my father's court, and the natural advantages and upbringing I received as a woman are for the purpose of being your help at this critical moment?"

Then, rolling like a merry nightingale in her arms, she clings to Paulina again and sings a song in an ancient tone and language:
"My fair lady, she lives deep in the boudoir.

Beautiful and colorful, beautiful and unattainable.

The body is light and the skin is fair.

The plain chest is like a mirror, comfortable and idle. "

Suleim's brisk and ethereal singing came out of the glass windows of the carriage, and then jumped up to the sky with the sound of the wind and the startled birds; after passing a long distance, they came to the devastated city of Seine; A member of the foraging sparrow in the inner ring area of ​​the sculpture fountain flowers.

And under these crows and sparrows that flutter and circle from time to time, the heavy armored knights, light armored hunters, and armed warriors who surrounded and guarded the river also came to the Emmadu Palace, which is the cemetery of successive dynasties and a place of major religious ceremonies. In front of an inconspicuous chapel on the edge.

The scene of the Night Walk of the Hundred Ghosts has been staged before, and the traces of the carnival of various resuscitated corpses are still vivid in my mind.In fact, even after a few days, all kinds of broken corpses continued to be cleaned out from every corner.This is the Church of the Holy Child; it is also the burial place of the royal family's dead descendants.

During the continuous cleaning and destruction of the Emmadu Palace, a wide tunnel leading to the Oasis Palace was discovered unintentionally under the blooming flower garden.Then, according to the traces, it was traced to the Holy Child Church; therefore, most of the ground part of the chapel has been demolished.
