Chapter 299: Integrity Questioning
readx;
As soon as the Academy Ghost's words fell, Wen Lisi shouted angrily, "You bewitching fellow! Watch me tear off your mask!" Princess Celestia rushed towards the Academy Ghost, and even the chair she was sitting on was overturned, but Evan blocked the front of the Academy Ghost for the first time, and the Academy Ghost whose real identity was Celenos was unmoved, just turned her head towards Bradley, waiting for Bradley's reply. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"This is the capital of the Kingdom of Salins, I have already said it beforehand, even if you are the eldest princess of the kingdom, you can't be presumptuous!"
"Is it okay to spread rumors in public! This masked man slandered Bradley as a dishonest person!"
Everyone was suspicious that they had seen Demps taken back to Mallot, where he was now imprisoned pending trial, but no one had seen Bradley capture Demps or execute the traitors.
"Brother Wang, the accusations of the ghost of the academy are unfounded, right?" Walter kept paying attention to Bradley's expression, although Bradley was injured, but the eldest prince, who had been silent most of the time, seemed too quiet, he was an important person in this meeting.
The Academy Ghost continued to say in a playful tone: "The remnants of the Snake Spear Knights who fled with Demps into the deep mountains and old forests are not dead, they are placed somewhere in the southern mountains, and the Grand Prince should also have a private agreement with Demps to ensure that he will not die... As for the reason for this, I don't know as a bystander. ”
"Still babbling!" was the only one in the entire meeting who showed anger, obviously blaming Bradley, but the person in question looked at the long table in front of everyone.
"The head of the Demps needs a fair verdict, as the Academy Ghost said, Demps was indeed not captured by me, but surrendered voluntarily," Brad admitted the accusation of the Academy Ghost in a flat tone, "Those three hundred and twenty-nine people who follow Demps are under the watchful eye of my men, and they are still somewhere in the southern mountains. But the main reason why I did this was to avoid wrongful convictions. ”
Everyone was stunned, they didn't expect Bradley to really deceive the entire kingdom of Salins, even his own father. No one but Avi cared about the last sentence of Bradley's words, not even the ghost who had asked Bradley to be their ordinary house ghost who had suggested that the Snake Gun Knights were wronged, as if he only wanted to expose Bradley's lies here and make Bradley's credibility ruined.
"It took a very short time to get Demps back to the capital... Now it seems that maybe Demps and the Great Prince have known each other since the beginning. ”
Bradley did not deny Gronos's words, nor did he admit it, but a discerning person knew at a glance that Bradley was in a state of loss, and whatever he said was not right. Fenrir, who was standing with Avi, had already gritted his teeth, of course Bradley's henchman knew the truth of the matter, but there was no place for him to justify it, and even Winlith looked at his twin brother with a look of surprise.
"Hmph, this is a matter of character, if you can't show integrity in front of the people, then you must not be the one who leads the kingdom forward!" Freemon seized the opportunity of Bradley's non-defense and slammed the other party's pain, "King Byron is angry with Demps, if there is really any deal between Demps and the eldest prince... If you think about it, one of them..."
Bradley stood up, and he shook his head at Winlith, "I admit that I did hide something in this matter, and if we must continue to discuss this matter today, then I am willing to accompany it, but I have not done anything to harm the interests of the kingdom since then, and even if my father throws another test to me, I will do my best to complete it." ”
Avi held the new white lion sword tightly, Bradley originally had the credit for repelling Amsol and the identity of the eldest son, and should naturally take over the power of the current kingdom, but he didn't expect these people not only proposed the "Council of Five" to divide Bradley's due power, but also used the Demps incident against Bradley. It is true that the eldest prince has concealed certain things, but this must be considered by the eldest prince, and he has also met Captain Demps in prison, and the other party is definitely not a bad person, more like a righteous leader. Avi's heart began to grow tired of the likes of Gronos and Feremont, as well as the others of Jaco, who had a close connection with the ghosts of the Academy, and they all became enemies at this moment in front of the knights who Bradley had personally canonized.
"No, this question is critical," Gronos shook his head as well, and Avi was eager to go over and break the other party's head immediately, "If there is a problem with integrity, for example, if Heck claims that Prince Amsoil did not die of illness, but was taken away by the eldest prince without permission, or if the Knights of the Snake Spear, who are regarded as traitors by King Byron, have an inexplicable relationship, then the seat of the 'Council of the Five Parties' cannot be given to anyone so easily..."
"Are you that clean yourselves?!" Wen Lisi asked rhetorically.
"If the Grand Duke is mainly accusing us, then please also show evidence. But the concern now is clearly that of Prince Bradley..."
Bradley stood up, and he grabbed Winlith's arm, "I'm willing to take responsibility for this matter, and since I can't confess to everyone, then please deprive me of the seat of the 'Council of Five' that belonged to me, and I will also give up my qualification to be the prince." ”
"No!" Avi shouted in his heart, but there was silence, as if they were all taken aback by Bradley's decision. Gronos was the first to react, and he said that he would respect Bradley's opinion, but he would still keep the seat that belonged to Princess Winlith, and at the same time add the young Princess Netney to this seat, he expected that Princess Winlith should ask Princess Netney for her opinion when voting decisions, after all, the latter is also the royal family of the Kingdom of Salins.
The Academy Ghost sat there, hated by Bradley's men, while Winlith sighed after being held back by Bradley, "Well, since it's your decision for Brother Wang, then I'll follow it." As for their slander without evidence, I don't care about it, even if you didn't kill those traitors, Brother Wang, then there must be your reasons, and I absolutely trust you. The eldest princess in heavy plate armor glanced at everyone present, and her sharp eyes showed murderous intent.
The Marquis of Roberto did not say anything, although he was on the same side as Bradley when he fought against Amsey, but he represented the interests of the Duchy of Deramain, so the person he most hoped to become the future king of the Kingdom of Salins should be Walter.
"Now that we have reached a consensus, the seats of the 'Five-Party Council' have been decided, and the details can be discussed slowly, but there is one more important matter now," Gronos tapped his fingers lightly on the table, "about King Byron's illness. ”
Bradley had already prepared to leave, but sat down again after hearing Gronos's words.
"Third Prince, please tell me what you are going to tell everyone. ”
"Here's the thing, my father's condition is very rare, and the royal doctors of the palace are helpless," Walter said and glanced at Evan, "Deputy Commander Evan is the one who knows his father's condition best, so even Deputy Commander Evan said that if there is no way, then there is really no way." And because I underwent a test given by my father before my father fell ill, a test about finding the weapon of life, I have the following gains. ”
As soon as Avi heard the words "Life Weapon", he immediately concentrated all his attention and looked at this hypocritical third prince. The same goes for the others, only the Academy Ghost doesn't react, maybe the face behind the hood has froze.
"According to my investigation over the past period of time, I found that one of those legendary weapons is very different, it should be a necklace... Oh no, the key is that gem on the necklace. It is said that the gemstone protects the person who wears the necklace, so I thought that if we could find the necklace, maybe we would be able to heal my father!"
Perhaps only Avi knew what the necklace and gems were talking about, because only Avi had touched the necklace with his own hands and seen the grave of the owner of the necklace in person.
"Isn't that necklace a weapon, then, a weapon, and why is it called a weapon of life?"
Walter explained: "As far as I know, there are no more than ten lives, and they are all the work of the master blacksmith Sivel, all forged from the same raw material, and I guess that the gem is different, and even has other abilities, but we don't know... I already have a rough idea of the whereabouts of this necklace, but its owner is no ordinary person, and I'll do my best... Even if it really doesn't have a healing effect, I hope to find it and dedicate it to my father!"
Walter's filial piety made those ministers and nobles in the distance admire, many people who originally supported Prince Amsoil were considering which side to switch, after Bradley was questioned about his integrity, they began to set their eyes on the young Walter, if Walter really found the weapon of life as he said, then he would be more qualified to become the prince!
Gronos nodded and said, "Then we need to pick a person who is capable in all aspects to be in charge of this matter, and Prince Walter still has a lot of responsibilities on his shoulders, so I think who else is more suitable..."
"Father's illness... I'm willing to do my part if I can!Amsoil's rebellion has been put down, and everyone else is willing to sit together to discuss cooperation, and I have no reason to continue commanding the army, I'm willing to look for that necklace!" Winlith was also worried, even if she wanted to fight for Bradley again, even if Byron was not so fond of Winlith, she was still the eldest princess of the Kingdom of Salins, and she still loved her father.
