Chapter 664: Game of Thrones

After learning that this person was the head of the Imperial Administration, Xia Feng also understood why the Supervision Office was so respectful.

The Ombudsman is not an army and is not under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Military Department, but is a political and legal organ of the highest authority.

In other words, Yarlin, the Imperial Chief Executive who appeared at the court at this moment, was the immediate boss of Inspector General Capewamy.

....

At this moment, Xia Feng no longer knew what mood to use to look at this trial.

He had never met the Chief Executive, Yarlin, but he was no stranger to this man's presence.

21 years ago, the grandfather Derek who adopted Nanfeng received a royal order to secretly take the young Nanfeng away from Lentinium, and one day before departure, he received an order from the military commander to secretly kill Nanfeng after arriving in the south, and the person who issued this order was the military chief Frey.

However, just 4 hours before Derek's departure, he received another order, which clearly stated that he could neither kill nor let people know that Southwind was still alive, and this order came from the Imperial Administrator, Yarson.

And at this moment, as if history repeats itself, the chief executive and the chief of military affairs are converging on the subversion of power for someone.

....

Things have developed so far, which is beyond Xia Feng's comprehension, and his intuition tells him that the real game of thrones is only now begining.

And he himself is just a pawn in this game.

...

After Elson walked in, both the Inspectorate and the Yuan Council looked solemn, and Inspector General Capewamy stood straight, his eyes already showing panic.

Led by Wei Lantai, the three judges stood up directly from their seats, and even Verin, who was sitting in the back, stood up respectfully.

"Chief Yarlin, why are you here?"

It can be seen that even the members of the royal family have great respect for Yarlin, which should not only be respect for identity, but also respect for personality.

Unlike Frey's sharp gaze, Arlin's expression was very kind, and he briefly glanced around the courtroom, and an old voice came out of his mouth.

"Hello Lord Weilantai, Your Royal Highness the Princess, please take a seat, don't be so nervous, just like Chief Frey, I am also passing by."

Arrin walked slowly to the center of the courtroom, standing between Frey and Gleason.

"Hey, people are old, they always like to meddle in things, the royal court is directly under the royal family, and it has always been fair and strict, I shouldn't have interfered in this matter, but if because of some misunderstandings, I insulted the person who should have received the credit, I can't sit idly by."

Arrin turned his head to look at Xia Feng, his gaze kind and kind.

"You are Xia Feng, young man, don't panic, whether it is merit or fault, I will help you figure it out."

Xia Feng didn't respond with thanks, judging from his attitude, Yarlin was here to help him.

But at the same time, he also knew very well that the Dao in the stomach of everyone present at the moment was like eighteen bends in the mountain road.

Whether it is to help him or harm him cannot be judged by a few words.

....

At this time, Frey, who was standing next to him with a blue face, spoke.

"Lord Arrin, I don't know what you're going to say?"

An easy-going smile appeared on Yarlin's wrinkled face, and he looked back at Frey, the only man of his level in Victoria.

"Lord Frey, you seem to be particularly concerned about your subordinates today, the dignified military chief, and even personally checked a task list for the special operation of the military region, which is really conscientious."

"It's just a matter of duty."

Yarlin nodded.

"Well, I don't have the right to interfere in the affairs of the military department, but what I'm going to talk about is another confidential mission, about Xia Feng."

Everyone present pricked up their ears and waited for this other classified mission that Arrin had mentioned.

Vina, who was sitting in the first row of the jury bench, took out a lollipop from her pocket and calmly put it in her mouth.

....

Later, Yarlin spoke about the so-called classified mission.

Of course, the general content of the mission is similar to what General Gleason said before, which is to appoint Xia Feng to go to Sargon on a special mission.

But the difference is that even Gleason has no right to know the content of this mission, and it belongs to another special mission attached to the [Yellow Sand Mission].

In court, this argument is a bit far-fetched, and the chief executive gives private assignments to agents of the military district, which does not fit the process.

But when Arrin spoke of the origin of the task, everyone honestly shut up.

The publisher of this quest is the current king, Wilanson.

...

After listening to Yarlin's words, the entire courtroom fell silent.

A smile of unknown meaning appeared on Princess Verin's lips, and with her mind, she could already hear something that no one else could understand.

Verin was the first to break the silence of the courtroom and spoke softly.

"It turned out to be my father's order, since this is the case, we naturally have no right to ask."

Verin's attitude can be said to be a kind of compromise, of course, her position at the moment is very vague, from beginning to end, Verin belongs to a neutral attitude, neither deliberately embarrassing Xia Feng, nor exculpating him.

Hearing Verin's words, the representatives of the Yuan Council exchanged glances with each other, but none of them spoke.

The officials of the Ombudsman were sweating and could only look at Inspector General Capewamy, who was pale and did not dare to speak.

In the silence, Frey, who was standing beside Arlin, could only speak in person.

"Lord Arrin, you said it was a mission issued by the king? Then why doesn't even the military department know about it? ”

Yarlin smiled rather than laugh.

"The king has his own intentions, probably because he doesn't want the military department to know."

"Why don't you want the military department to know?"

"Lord Frey, are you trying to figure out the King's mind? Or do you think that with you I can understand the king's intentions? ”

"I.... That was not what I meant. ”

Frey took a deep breath with an unkind face, still uncompromising.

"I find this task a bit strange.... I mean, it's a bit vague, the king is seriously ill now, what task does he have to give to Xia Feng, a commoner who is neither a nobleman nor a soldier? ”

At this point, General Gleason interjected sarcastically.

"Sir, this suspicion of yours is easy to solve, why don't you go and call the king to the court to confront him now."

"Poof."

I don't know who let out a suffocated laugh from the seats of the representatives of the Yuan Assembly.

Frey looked angrily at the Yuan Council.

"Who's laughing!"

At this point, Xia Feng's expression had softened, he leaned back in his chair and interjected casually.

"What's wrong with laughing, can't people think of happy things?"

"Shut up, there's no place for you to talk here!"

"Cut."

Wellante in the judge's seat coughed lightly.

"Ahem, be quiet, that.... Lord Frey, I don't think it's realistic to call the king, isn't that a joke, you see, the princess is here. ”

Frey heard the meaning of Wilantai's words, and immediately stood upright.

"Your Royal Highness, I have no disrespect for King Wilanson, and I have no right to ask the King to come and testify."

Verin nodded.

"It's all unintentional, and Lord Frey doesn't have to blame himself."
