When the Saint comes, she does not collect food

Chapter 544 Suspicion and Truth
"...According to your perfect strategy, the Grey Horse Knight voluntarily decided to surrender, because there was no way to break the battle you set up...

Rather than going against the will of the Holy Lord, why not obey fate? That was why he surrendered.

In addition to the earldom, gold, silver and beautiful women, the Grey Horse Knight also hopes that you can release his soldiers in batches. The soldiers are innocent.

For this purpose, he proposed an exchange. He had some information and evidence that could eliminate the huge hidden danger around you.

This hidden danger is not only dangerous in the future, but it is even dangerous right now. He can help you eliminate this hidden danger and has attached this letter as an appetizer. "

With his extraordinary memory, the second messenger after Garignon repeated Wayne's words almost entirely.

"A letter? An appetizer?"

Prince Condé frowned and glanced at Guerignon, who was standing trembling beside him.

Garignon stared with an incredible look: "No, there is no last item. He told me that it was just the Earl's gold, silver and beautiful women..."

The envoy who conducted the second negotiation sneered: "Why do you think His Highness sent me to communicate again? And I already know why you mentioned the letter."

"Why?" The hairs on his arms stood up, and Garignon had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Don't keep us in suspense, just tell us now." The captains of the imperial companies around him urged.

All the important figures of the church army, big and small, were present in the tent. After all, Wayne, the Grey Horse Knight, was well-known and could almost be considered the second-in-command under Meliati.

If he could surrender, the effect would be much more effective than winning ten battles.

Even the second-in-command has surrendered. What a huge blow this is to the morale of Meliati!
"Ahem, this letter is very long. It's probably from Andre, the leader of the Short-haired Rebellion, who wrote to the demon Horn, saying...

Ahem, a certain earl asked him to change the flag. If he was willing to do so, he would provide him with winter supplies. He asked the demon Horn whether he would allow them to do so...

The demon Horn sent Andre's letter to the Meliati rebels, and he also attached a letter along with it.

In the letter, he first told Meliati that he agreed with the actions of the Holy Sun Righteous Army, and then asked her if she knew about it..."

The previously noisy tent suddenly became quiet.

Many people who came to watch the fun wished they didn’t have ears. Is this something that can be recited in public?
Before the expedition, the nobles of Hotham County had just had a quarrel with Prince Conde, and the two sides were almost on the verge of a falling out.

You know, this raid is completely confidential, Prince Condé can ensure it.

Unless Horn had foresight, he would not have written such a letter in advance as a divisive tactic.

Of course, there is another possibility, that is, this letter was forged by Wayne.

It depends on what Prince Condai himself thinks. If he thinks it is fake, then naturally everything will be fine.

If he thinks this is true, then there are two problems.

The first is how to deal with the Count of Sampoli in Hotham County, and the second and most fatal one is what else Wayne has in his hands?
After all, the Grey Horse Knight said that this is just an "appetizer"!

Combined with those so-called remarks that “not only is there danger in the future, but it’s dangerous around us right now,” it’s hard not to shudder.

After the messenger finished reading the report, the only sounds left in the tent were the whistling of the wind and the crackling of the burning stove.

Everyone lowered their heads, and occasionally someone would turn his head to secretly peek at Prince Kongdai.

Sitting upright on the bear-skin throne, His Royal Highness the Prince froze visibly for a few seconds.

Then he stood up, walked slowly to the messenger, picked up the letter, and read it from beginning to end, but there was no change on his face.

The atmosphere in the entire tent suddenly dropped to freezing point.

Lacuno was even more tense, ready to stop Prince Condé's impulsive actions at any time.

“Hahahaha.” Prince Kongdai suddenly laughed. “This is a divisive tactic. It must be fake. This is garbage. This is how I treat garbage!”

As he spoke, Prince Kongdai quickly crumpled the letters in his hand into a ball, walked quickly to the stove, and threw the letters directly into it.

Only when the letter crackled and turned into ashes did Lacunio finally breathe a sigh of relief.

He smiled with relief, and even felt a sense of relief that his silly son had finally grown up.

"Tell Wayne that he loves his soldiers, and so do I. He agreed to his surrender conditions not because he hoped to get so-called evidence, but because he hoped to save the lives of my soldiers."

Throwing his cloak aside, Prince Conde turned around and sat back on the bear-skin throne, his eyes fixed on Garignon, who was sweating profusely and almost fainting.

“As for Galinon, although he saw through the alienation and did not report it, his mission was to be a messenger, which was not his job.

Whatever the reason, report it truthfully, guard, and send him to prison to pray for three days to repent."

The captains of the Imperial Order Company breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Garignon with a mixture of sympathy and ridicule.

Everyone knows that the prince is narrow-minded. If you offend him, you are finished.

"No, he slandered me. Wayne didn't say anything..." Garignon was really aggrieved now. He didn't understand why Wayne wanted to frame him.

He and Sechinger are still friends!
"Alright, even though the Grey Horse Knight has surrendered, don't stop the offensive tomorrow. Send more letters during this time. If he opens the gate and lets the soldiers leave, let them go after confirming their identities. Don't stop him. Anyway, we only need to capture this castle the day after tomorrow."

After arranging tomorrow's offensive mission, Lacunio talked to him a little more about the importance of stabilizing the rear, and then left with satisfaction.

Everyone had left, except Prince Condé himself, with only his servants standing by.

The curtain of the tent was swaying back and forth in the chilly spring breeze. He sat on the throne for a few minutes and suddenly said, "Everyone go out and call Shadowless Man Eighty."

Several servants carrying lamps and teapots obediently left the tent, and the whole tent suddenly became much darker.

Seeing that there was no one around, Prince Condé suddenly rummaged through his sleeves and took out the letter from Wayne.

With the speed he moved, it wouldn't be easy for him to hide a few more pieces of paper.

Then, in the bright light of the candle, Prince Condé read it over and over again as if possessed, even trying to carefully identify the handwriting.

Until the arrival of the church system's exclusive spy, the Shadowless Man.

After the departure of Archbishop Constance, this power was assigned by the Pope to Mitzham, not to Barniforth.

However, in Mizam, they were again under the management of Prince Condé, which is also an important reason why Barnifors was always inferior to Prince Condé.

"Your Highness, are you looking for me?"

"How's the handwriting comparison going?" Prince Kong Dai asked casually, but the blue veins on the back of his hand still betrayed his inner thoughts.

"The handwriting of the demon Horn's letter is correct, but I don't have any letters from Andre to compare with..."

Sure enough, the shadowless man verified it as soon as the messenger received the letter.

Prince Condé understood that this still could not prove that the evidence of Count Sampoli's collusion with some of the nobles of Hotham County was true.

Because there are a lot of Shengsun's handwriting left, Wayne, as a friendly army, must have a lot of it, so it is easy to find someone to imitate the handwriting.

But the rebel leader Andre is extremely mysterious and his whereabouts are elusive.

Even the Shadowless Man didn't have his letters and handwriting. This time Prince Kongdai launched a surprise attack and caught people off guard, so it must be difficult to forge them.

"Try to find Andre's letter and compare the handwriting as quickly as possible!"

"As you command, Your Highness." The Shadowless Man quickly bowed in agreement.

"Has Gérignon been tested?" Prince Conde continued to ask.

"We asked someone to pretend to be the groom, saying that he was a spy planted by Sampoli, and asked him what the Gray Horse Knight had in his hand?" The Shadowless Man's thin and soft hair was stuck to his scalp, as if he had just been pulled out of the water.

"How did he answer?"

"He kept saying he didn't know. He really didn't know. We asked him many times in different ways, but he still didn't know."

Prince Kong Dai snorted coldly: "He is quite alert. Is there anything else wrong with him? Nothing at all?"

The shadowless man scratched his head and said, "No, if I force him to say something, he would be stunned for a moment every time he answered, and then he would be very annoyed."

"That's right. He is afraid of being exposed, otherwise why would he be so upset?" Prince Conde said firmly, holding the letter paper tightly and shaking it.

Based on his first impression, Shadowless Man 80 felt that Galinon was most likely just annoyed by the questions, but in the end he did not express his opinion.

Otherwise, it would be bad if Prince Condé suspected that he was protecting Guerignon.

Only then did Prince Condai notice that the letter paper was about to be crushed to pieces by him. He quickly put it on the table, but felt uneasy again.

So he took out a sturdy iron box from the box behind him, took out a gorgeously decorated Gospel from it, put the letter in it, and then put the things back to their original place with peace of mind.

"Let me ask you something." Prince Condé's voice was chilling. "Has the Holy Sun Righteous Army recently changed its flag to become the Duke's Army?"

The shadowless man was stunned: "Yes, yes, three days ago we got news that two Shengsun righteous armies had changed their flags, and recently several more have been changing their flags one after another.

I heard that there seems to be a sign of division within them, and many of the Holy Sun Righteous Army have split into the Jeanne d'Arc and Lengquan Fort factions..."

"I don't care about this. Do you know when exactly they changed it?" Prince Kongdai rudely interrupted the Shadowless Man's speech.

"Well, this may require investigation by our companions in Hotham County. I will give you the news within three days."

"As soon as possible, then check this person." Prince Condé described the "noble courier" described in the letter based on his memory. "Find out if he is a real person? Whose man is he? When you find him, don't alert him. Report to me. Do you understand?"

"Understood, Your Highness."

The shadowless man was about to leave when he was stopped by Prince Conde. He hesitated for a while before whispering, "Lacunio has been working too hard for the military, so don't worry about this. Do you understand me?"

Wuyingren nodded in understanding: "Understood, this news will not be passed on to Lord Lacunio."
