Chapter 33 Conversations in Prison
Little Henry heard the rubbing sounds of people moving around. These sounds may be insignificant outside, but in the dark cell, prisoners have become accustomed to listening to the sounds of nature in this quiet place.

"Sir, can you get me something to eat, I've been hungry for days?"

"Hey, when can I go out?"

"I've said it all, I didn't steal anyone's money, he gave it to me himself."

Seeing someone approaching, the prisoners in the cell habitually erupted.

Some prisoners even slammed on the wooden doors, trying to attract the attention of the guards.

Little Henry. Not the sheriff who made friends with the Dorian family, he was just an ordinary young man who happened to have the same name.

Due to his lack of experience in dealing with people, little Henry naively believed the liar's rhetoric, brought the poison Cantrella to Earl Charlotte's manor, and became a scapegoat for the conspiracy of the powerful.

In fact, he knew neither what was in the bottle nor the writing on the envelope.

The reason why Little Henry carried it with him was entirely because it was requested by others, and it was a condition for bringing himself in to earn money.

Unexpectedly, it was a conspiracy.

The young man closed his eyes in pain. Now he only hopes that his sick mother can get help from kind people so that he can overcome the difficulties.

As for his fate, he will probably go to the gallows.

"Mother, are you okay?" He was thinking of his relatives and kept whispering.

Perhaps the murmur was heard, and Ivan stopped.

The marble statue-like face was illuminated by the light from the small window on the wall, revealing a pair of cold and sharp eyes, with long eyelashes flickering in the dust particles.

Little Henry blinked in surprise, he looked up and felt that this person seemed familiar.

"Hehe, there is actually an acquaintance here." Ivan snorted and signaled the guard to open the door.

The guards quickly got ready and the key clanged into the lock.

Ivan and Little Henry came face to face.

"gentlemen."

The guard tried to persuade Ivan, but he ordered him to leave here temporarily.

The yellow grass roots were torn to shreds, and nothing related to his age could be seen from the top and bottom of the worn clothes. His back was bent, and his face was bruised obviously. It seemed that he had suffered a lot during this time.

The young man has a straight nose, but his cheeks are bitter and sunken.

Her lips were extremely dry, and there was no luster in her eyes.

Desperate, immature, honest.

These are the three qualities that Ivan can see from the opponent's face, which makes him very satisfied.

Because only when you are deeply in despair, can you have a sincere gratitude to those who reach out to help, and kindness is often the basis for the birth of family service loyalty.

Feudal allegiance is a rule fabricated by people's hearts, and it often has high moral standards.

Ivan smiled, he knew that this young man was framed by Baron Robespierre.

It should be that the other party sent someone to plan in advance in private, so that he can find a scapegoat after his plan is successful.

Baron Robespierre planned so well that no one realized what was wrong.

There are many nobles who oppose the Secretary-General, but not many who really dare to act, because the palace of Bam City has a high authority in people's hearts, and the issue of business tax does not involve religion, and missionaries who master ideas do not Will have an opinion on this.

If he really succeeds, the court can only suffer from being dumb.

Ivan didn't know Baron Robespierre's follow-up plan. He presumably used the death of the Secretary-General to intimidate other nobles in order to form a regional interest group.

When one city begins to protest massively, other cities may join in.

Even if the court can suppress it, the local nobles can surely obtain a compromise.

This compromise may be useful to the local nobles of Luzpittburg, but it is not good for the Dorian family who make a living from ocean trade.

So they sided with the Cardinals.

Ivan rubbed his nose, the stale air in the prison made him uncomfortable.

Logically speaking, His Excellency Mazarin's illness has been cured by himself, and everyone, including Baron Robespierre, the mastermind behind the scenes, was also misled to think that Mazarin had never been poisoned, so Little Henry should have just attempted murder.

This charge generally carries a prison sentence of 20 years.

The problem is that the object of his "murder" is Mazarin, the younger brother of Cardinal Mazarin in the court, which makes the crime of criminals aggravated.

However, it is only in name.

Ivan had an idea in mind, so he spoke directly.

"Hey, do you know what your crime is?"

Little Henry glanced at him blankly, turned his head away but did not speak.

"I heard from others that you are an attempted murder and should be hanged."

"But if some dignitaries intercede for you, and then spend a large sum of money to the sheriff here, maybe you can still be free. Don't you want to be free?"

"You have no lover at home, no father, no mother, maybe they are waiting for you to go back?"

Ivan saw that his eyes seemed to tremble, so he grinned.

There was clearly something sinister about this laughter.

"I am quite familiar with the security guards here. If I come forward, I may be able to help you. At that time, you can still go home and reunite with your mother."

Maybe he was tricked once, so little Henry asked cautiously: "What do you want me to do?"

"My requirements are not high."

"I need a subordinate, a subordinate who is extremely loyal."

"You need to work in my clinic and usually follow my instructions."

"More importantly, your life and future will belong to me. I don't allow any betrayal, and I don't want to see anyone unwilling to carry out my orders because of suspicion or fear."

Ivan's words are very serious, and other people may have to think about it, but Little Henry has no way out now.

He decided to take a gamble. No one wanted his loyalty in the first place. If it was really because he was on the road of no return, at least he could see his mother for the last time.

Little Henry was a very honest young man, and he worked very dutifully. If his mother hadn't been ill, he wouldn't have taken the risk at all.

After he made up his mind, he knelt at the door of the cell, stretched out his palm, and swore in the name of his "Jane Furnster".

Jane Furnster was his mother.

If anyone at the scene was familiar with Little Henry, they would all know that this man attached great importance to his family, and although he did not believe in God, he was also baptized.

Little Henry can swear in the name of his mother, which means that he feels that he is ready to serve his master with all his strength and dedicate his life to loyalty.

After taking his oath, little Henry asked a question: "Why did you choose me?"

"Because I know that you were framed and framed, and I know who put the blame on you. Your unlucky fate makes me feel curious, and saving you is my random act, so if you have any act of betraying your oath, I will And send you back to this prison."

Little Henry nodded hurriedly, and swore that he would serve Lord Ivan for the rest of his life.

Ivan nodded and led the prisoner out of here.

Of course he didn't need to pay bribes, and Sheriff Henry almost confessed him.

The guards at the door didn't dare to stop them when they saw it, so they let the two of them leave in a swaggering manner.

Just a condemned prisoner, no one will notice him.
