Riding and Slashing

"Hmph... He doesn't have the ability like you... Let's get down to business, Your Excellency Li Ang, since you know our identities, what do you want to do?"

Faced with Li Ang's yin and yang, the prophet who looked like a maid just smiled contemptuously, without any fluctuation in emotion.

"What? Are you going to talk to me as a maid? Didn't Inner tell you? I was entrusted by Mrs. Anna's father, Sir Aurs, to ask questions on behalf of her father—do you think this kind of thing , is it appropriate for me to talk to a maid...?"

Li Ang raised Erlang's legs carelessly: "Besides, you, a maid sitting at the main table and talking to Marshal Wang Guo, isn't that a bit too courageous? The guards outside can see it! Could it be that you really plan to let His Majesty See something?"

The Prophet's face visibly twitched, but he did stand up, and stood in the corner with a respectful attitude - that's where the maid should stand.

"Your Excellency Li Ang, Anna can't come, she has to stay with the king in the bedroom...she will come with Ulrik after a while. So, if you have anything to do, talk to me quickly, don't waste time."

Although he was ridiculed by Li Ang for a while, the prophet still maintained a peaceful attitude and appeared to be very qualified.

Obviously, she didn't want to make any trouble here.

It's just that this kind of groveling form will definitely suffer when it comes to negotiations.

Moreover, Li Ang confirmed one thing through the continuous yin and yang strangeness-the three prophets did believe that Anna was the daughter of Ors.

Seriously, it's not really a lie.

If Anna had been an orphan raised by Sister Clancy, she would indeed have been Aurs's daughter.

"Before I get down to business, I have to ask you a question... Amy was accused of heresy in Fox Town, does this have anything to do with you?"

Li Ang planned to confirm his thoughts first.

"Hehe...Your Excellency Li Ang, since you know our identities, you should understand that it is impossible for us to cause trouble for ourselves at this time. We are also very curious about who did it - another sister of mine has gone to sly Fox Town investigated..."

The Prophet answered very happily. Since Li Ang already knew their identities, she didn't hide them anymore.

"Very well, since it has nothing to do with you, then we have a basis for cooperation."

Li Ang nodded, and started to ask directly: "I intend to ask you to help, please His Majesty the King withdraw the king's order to attack Godric and Amy, and issue another king's order-I need the king's public order to let Amy With Godric in charge of hunting down heresy."

"Your Excellency Li Ang is really extraordinary. I thought you would insist that we did this... But it is not easy for the king to retract the order that has been issued. Besides, why should we cooperate with you?"

The Prophet stood in the corner with his head down, seemingly relieved, but he didn't seem to intend to cooperate in his words.

However, this tone is obviously giving in.

A smile appeared on Li Ang's face—this meant that the three prophets probably wouldn't directly turn against him now, and he only needed to guard against their plots.

That is to say, as long as Ulrik is not dead, as long as Anna's 'child' is not designated as the heir, the three prophets are not willing to take the initiative to provoke Li Ang, Marshal of the kingdom.

They don't want to be extravagant.

And looking at it this way, the three prophets didn't regard Li Ang as an enemy...

That's right. In Changhe Town, Li Ang's coalition army defeated them openly on the battlefield, and finally handed them over to Lehman. The two sides really had no personal grievances.

On the contrary, it was Grandlon and Fawcett who destroyed the old den of the Three Prophets near Misty Swamp Castle when they went to 'find the King's Seal'. It is estimated that they would be regarded as enemies by the Three Prophets.

That's easy...

"Why do you cooperate with me?...Because, if you don't cooperate with me, you will have to become Amy's servants!"

Li Ang shook his head and smiled: "Amy was called a 'dark goddess descending' by the heretics in Guihu Town. You should have heard about this, right? If you don't intend to betray your faith, then you have to cooperate with me to solve the problem. this problem!"

In fact, this is why Li Ang came to negotiate with the princess...

If Amy is identified as the Dark Goddess herself, then all heretics who worship the Dark Goddess will have to regard Amy as a god...

The Three Prophets are also believers of the Goddess of Darkness, but Li Ang does not believe that the Three Prophets will regard Amy as their master.

"Hmph...Your Excellency Li Ang, you don't seem to understand the situation."

The Prophet was not bluffed by Li Ang: "We are not prophets now... My sister is the princess, and I am her maid, and my sister's child is about to become the king—how could the princess be a heretic? What about the future queen regent? Maybe heretics are masters..."

"Ha, you say that the god you believe in is heresy? You actually openly betrayed the Goddess of Darkness?"

Li Ang glanced at the prophet in surprise. He didn't expect that the three prophets, who had obtained power from the goddess of darkness, dared to say such words: "Aren't you afraid that the goddess Eredar will punish you after hearing this?"

"Your Excellency Li Ang, I might as well tell you directly... This tower of the House of Nobles is the center of Pendor Continent, a place that no god can peek into. Goddess Eredar can't hear what I say..."

The Prophet smiled faintly: "Besides, after my sister's child becomes king, the goddess will naturally know our loyalty."

I see……

No wonder the gardens of the Noble House are in full bloom all year round.

It turns out that this is the reason why the Lion King chose the Noble House as his private residence—a place without gods is the real blessed place...

"Alright then, since you mentioned the king...if Anna's father appeared in front of the king, how do you think Mrs. Anna should explain it?"

Li Ang asked indifferently: "Besides, the child in her stomach... I'm afraid it's not the king's?"

"Why, do you think Ulrik will believe you?"

A murderous look appeared in the prophet's eyes, but it was fleeting.

Of course Li Ang felt the killing intent.

This meant that the child was indeed not the king's - it was impossible at first, Ulrik was already 50 years old, and he had been ill for so long before, so how could he be able to conceive a child just by a concubine.

But Li Ang was also sure that the Three Prophets didn't dare to do anything to him, at least not now.

"Actually, it doesn't matter if His Majesty the King believes me or not. Anyway, I'm just entrusted to ask you... But whether the King will doubt you because of this is not certain."

Li Ang said with a smile: "I'll tell you another secret, Princess Anna has an older brother."

Anna does have an older brother——Inna, although he is not a real brother, but the three prophets certainly do not know the joints.

For the three prophets, this means that Anna has more and more loopholes, and there are more and more problems that may arise...

The Prophet frowned and fell silent, probably considering the consequences of this.

And Li Ang looked at the prophet dressed as a maid, and asked again: "Since you said that the gods can't peep here...then, if I'm not wrong, you won't get a response from the Goddess of Darkness in the Noble Court, right? In other words, you can't use witchcraft against the king... and you can't use someone else's body to resurrect again!"

"What do you want to do?"

The Prophet raised his head abruptly, his eyes showing deep guard.

"Just to remind you that you only have one life now, so you better cherish it."

Li Ang looked out the window, and raised his chin to signal the guards standing on the wall.

He was simply preventing the prophet from taking a risk.

If he starts fighting here, he won't be able to defeat the prophetess without a weapon...

"Your Excellency Li Ang, in fact, we have never provoked you, why do you have to fight us?"

The prophet didn't seem to have any intention of doing anything, but she looked at Li Ang with a hint of regret.

"Right?"

Li Ang laughed: "I'm helping you! If I don't remind you, you probably haven't thought that Anna has so many family members? If I don't help you, you will be exposed sooner or later! I will help you hide your identity , you help me convince the king, isn't this a fair deal?"

"Convince the king... Li Ang, what if I am not willing? This is not a matter of fairness... Li Ang, we don't want to be coerced!"

The Prophet asked seriously.

"Unwilling to be coerced? Then... what if King Ulrik is dead?"

Li Ang didn't move at all: "If he dies, not only will you get nothing, but you will also be accused by Anna's father as a regicide heretic. Are you willing to accept such a result?"

After finishing speaking, Li Ang raised his hand and beckoned.

With this gesture, a cold light flashed, and two flying knives suddenly shot in from the window, and they spun and stuck in the fruit plate on the table—it was the fruit plate brought in by the prophet before, and an apple inside was spun The flying knife cut it in half.

This is obviously a show of skill - two throwing knives are shot at the same target, and it has the effect of cutting off the apple. This technique is really terrible.

It's worth the monthly price of 120 dinars...

Li Ang thinks.

"Scorpio Assassin?!"

The prophet obviously knows the goods: "You want to kill the king?!"

This time, the prophet was indeed no longer calm.

"No, it's you who will kill the king... The Scorpion Assassins are from the D'Shar. No one would believe that they have something to do with me, the Marshal of the Sarleon Kingdom, who just beat up D'Shar to a mess. On the contrary, it is very likely that they have something to do with you ——You should understand what I mean, if you lose the king's protection, no one will trust you..."

"I just want to tell you that if you are willing to cooperate, then we can trade fairly. But if you are unwilling to cooperate with me, then I promise, you will become kingslayers!"

Li Ang still crossed his legs and looked at the Prophet: "By the way, I remind you that there is poison on the flying knife. You can't eat this apple."

In fact, this is the way Li Ang really intends to use to coerce the princess.

When he was in Changhe Town, Li Ang had roughly judged the scope of application of the skin-changing witchcraft of the Three Prophets—this kind of skin-changing witchcraft should have many restrictions.

For example, it can only be cast on true believers of the Goddess of Darkness.

Because the way they peel their skin is to make fanatics become degenerates and peel off their own skin—otherwise they won't get a complete human skin.

For another example, there may be some restrictions on where to use it.

Because the fake Igor once tried to lure the king to Longhe Town, which means that they can't use this method in Sarleon City-otherwise, they can directly change their skins to pretend to be the king, and even bring all the majors to the city. The nobles are all replaced by their people, so there is no need to get a princess out.

However, Li Ang didn't know the reason at the time, and now he knows that the House of Nobles can isolate the gods.

In other words, the Three Prophets couldn't let the king die at this time, or all their plans would be in vain—the child hadn't been born yet, and Ulrik had to die if the child became the king's heir.

But for Li Ang, if there is no such thing as Amy, then Ulrik's death will not have much impact on him, and it will even be slightly beneficial-he is the marshal of the kingdom, the most important minister among the important ministers, no matter who succeeds , have to show kindness to him.

But now Ulrik really can't die, after all, only the king can exonerate Amy.

But if Amy's charges really cannot be solved, then...

Therefore, when Li Ang came to Lion City this time, he originally intended to use Ors's surname as an excuse to meet the princess, and then threaten the princess with the king's life—of course, there is no need to actually threaten the king, just let the princess know, Just have the ability to kill the king.

This is also the reason why the Scorpio Assassin was pre-arranged to ambush in the Noble Court.

After meeting Inna at the city gate, Li Ang tried it out, and finally got the opportunity to meet the three prophets directly, avoiding a lot of uncertainties—for example, the king and the queen came together, it would be difficult to negotiate .

At this time, there were footsteps upstairs.

"Your Majesty and Mrs. Anna are coming...I promise to cooperate with you, but if you don't want to die, don't play tricks!"

The prophet glanced at Li Ang, and began to quickly clear the fruit plate on the table.

"Of course... what's your name? Or, what's your current body called?"

Li Ang helped put away the two throwing knives, and also carefully looked at the face of the prophet.

She was dressed like an ordinary court maid, but she still had a beautiful appearance, with reddish brown hair and green eyes, very characteristic.

"My name is Circe. Your Excellency Leon, I will find you."

The prophetess named Circe put away the flying knives on the fruit plate and went out with the fruit plate.

At this time, King Ulrik just went downstairs with his young and beautiful princess on his arm, passed by Circe, saw the fruit plate in Circe's hand, and casually picked up half of an apple...

Circe was dumbfounded, but couldn't remind—how should I say this?Say apples are poisonous?

Then why?

"Your Majesty, you can't eat this...that's what I left from eating..."

On the contrary, Li Ang responded quickly and gave a reason.

Ulrik glanced at Li Ang, and threw away the piece of apple casually: "Li Ang, you should go to suppress the rebellion now, instead of coming to my place early in the morning to have breakfast!"

"Cough... an important knight under my command has a problem with his identity... Sir Aurs von Clancy, he begged me to help him ask if he can relieve the opponent for the sake of Mrs. Anna He is wanted - he is Lady Anna's clan, but many years ago he became a wandering knight due to some grievances. Your Majesty, you know, this status is not suitable for suppressing rebellion..."

Li Ang smiled at Princess Anna, then nodded to King Ulrik in reply.

He didn't say anything about Anna's father anymore, but it looked like he was fulfilling his promise to 'help the princess hide her identity'...

Princess Anna looked visibly relieved.

Circe also quickly picked up the piece of poisoned apple and went downstairs.

"Wandering knights? Illegal knights, right... You really have everyone under your command..."

Ulrik was woken up probably before he had gotten enough sleep, and he obviously hadn't eaten breakfast, so he didn't have the patience to ask the specific situation: "Since his surname is Clancy, let Anna decide..."

"My family was wronged and defeated, and most of them were scattered. Now that I can find my relatives, I should thank Lord Li Ang... Maybe I should sign a letter of guarantee for Sir Als..."

Mrs. Anna reacted quickly and bowed to Li Ang, responding quite decently.
