Wizard From Afar
Chapter 99
When it comes to lying, the little wizard is still far less experienced than Loren - especially her expression, which almost puts the words "I lied" on her face.
Fortunately, however, Loren, who stood up in time, helped her round the past, and Barry Senna didn''t seem to be interested in it. Only when he knew that ayin was an alchemist, his expression changed slightly.
The old man didn''t stop ayin and hat from staying in the castle for a few days. Instead, he was very enthusiastic to help arrange a vacant room next to Loren.
When I opened the door, although the room was small, it had a clean bed, a beautiful simplified spectrum, a candle lamp on the table, a window to see the scenery outside the castle, and new bedding and pillows.
The preparation is so meticulous that it''s almost like arranging in advance. It''s impossible. Is it a coincidence this time? Loren''s mouth curled up with a sneer.
"Don''t you wonder why I pretended to be Isaac."
The little wizard didn''t think as much as he did. She was silent all the way. After entering the house, she finally couldn''t help saying, "and she lied for me."
"Of course I''m curious, but..." Lauren smiled at Ayn with relief. "I believe you''ll do it for your own reason. When you want to say it, you''ll naturally tell me."
Although he subconsciously thought it was the other party''s words to fool himself, the little wizard was still very happy and said, "you just want to say that I''m not good at lying, right?"
"How could honest and kind-hearted ayin lie?" Lauren, with his hands on his back, asked with a smile and raised his eyebrows confidently: "this is my strength."
"Talk big." before forgiving him, Ayn snorted coldly, but Lauren held his head down.
"No matter what your purpose is, I just hope you can promise me one thing." the dark haired wizard slowly lowered his voice, but increased his tone: "when you are ready to do it, you must say it - I will do my best to achieve your wish!"
Ayn, who was silent in a low voice, just nodded gently, which was an answer to Loren. The delicate face showed a complex look, as if there was something hidden.
Loren suddenly remembered the leader of the RAND family he met when he and ruwen left the castle, and Ayn Rand was also from shenlinbao.
Could it be involved in this matter? Loren, who didn''t like to speculate, just let the idea flash through his mind and turned away from the little wizard''s room.
He has more important things to deal with - winter has come, that is to say, the tug of war with the nobles of Shenlin castle has entered the final stage, and it is time to solve them.
Whether they like it or not, this is the last chance and the most important battle for Reuven Fred. If he can''t get rid of these diehards, he can''t really establish prestige among the nobles in shenlinbao, and it''s impossible to completely suppress the Seine family.
At that time, people will only say that it was the Seine family who took the initiative to help the count that made the nobles relax. This is definitely a great disadvantage to the count''s reputation.
What''s more, if the other party will do so, there must be another plot behind it. There is no free dinner in the world. Barry Senna will suddenly "betray" the nobles in shenlinbao, only because it is more beneficial to him.
Moreover, there are more problems now... Standing at the end of the corridor, looking out of the window at the increasingly cold wind and the flying snow, a bad hunch is spreading in Loren''s heart.
Now it''s just a little cold. The land will be completely frozen in another month. The frozen ground can''t even insert the pitchfork. It''s impossible to start work in this weather.
The colder and colder weather will also greatly reduce farmers'' enthusiasm for land. If the weather is cold enough to freeze to death, how many people will be willing to leave the warm fire pit at home for the land they can only get?
In the final analysis, Reuven Fred is just a new count who has just ruled them. Of course, he does not have the local reputation of the Seine family, and it is impossible to respond to these ordinary people. They only believe what they see is true, and there are rumors around them.
The longer it takes, the better the situation will be for the nobles in shenlinbao - that''s their plan. As long as it continues, one day the count will not be able to hold on and choose to give up.
This is their plan. Even though people have been put under house arrest by the count in the castle, as long as there is no suitable excuse, it is impossible for Lu Wen to fix them, so they don''t worry that Lu Wen will come directly, which will only make the remaining nobles stand behind them more firmly.
They will dress themselves up as "noble people" against the cruel lord, overthrow the rule of ruven Fred with the most just excuse, make Duke Fred lose face and give up the plan to recover shenlinbao.
The dark haired wizard stood waiting outside the map room. After a while, sir Aaron appeared in his vision. Just looking at his expression, he knew that the count and the nobles could not talk together today.
"The count is almost impatient." Sir Aaron''s first sentence was this, with a very dignified look: "if it goes on like this, it won''t solve the problem for long!"
"Did he do it to the nobles?"
"No..." with a deep sigh, sir Aaron finally decided whether Lauren''s most worried guess: "but if it goes on like this, it will be sooner or later. Reuven Fred, he has never been a very patient person, and it is his limit to stick to it."
The black haired wizard nodded to show his understanding - from his observation of Lu Wen, it is not difficult to see that he actually has no patience. The reason why he has not erupted up to now is entirely because he really wants to be a qualified count, that''s all.
But if you continue to drag on like this, it will only make the situation worse and worse, and you must reverse the situation as soon as possible... The thoughtful Lauren didn''t even notice that Sir Aaron patted himself on the shoulder until the other party handed the note to him.
"This is..."
"Secretly wrote it down." Sir Aaron nodded. "Although it should not be complete, the above people are the toughest guys in the aristocracy."
"I don''t know politics, but if I follow these people, I can certainly dig out a lot of things. Maybe I can find out who''s behind them - you wizards must have a lot of ways not to be found, right?"
"Of course." comprehending Loren nodded. I''m afraid Sir Aaron meant not only to follow them, but also to find a way to pull something out of their mouths.
Anyway, as long as no one finds out, it won''t involve the count. You can do whatever you want.
Looking at the above string of names of the heads of various families, the RAND family was also among them, and there was an imperceptible wry smile on Loren''s mouth.
It''s... it''s embarrassing.
Although the little wizard mentioned it only a few times, she was still very proud of her last name, and her words revealed a self-evident sense of pride.
What to do? Do you want to find a way to secretly hint at the Lande''s owner? Or do you want to try to keep Lu Wen from paying attention to him and shift his goal to others?
"So you noticed?" Sir Aaron showed an expression of enlightenment when he saw Lauren pressing his right hand on the words of the RAND family: "it was this fat man named visari Rand who pretended to be flattering from beginning to end, but opposed the whole plan from beginning to end!"
"If it weren''t for him, the count could have persuaded several people to hand over the land yesterday, but it fell short!" Sir Aaron involuntarily increased his tone: "no matter what means you use, you can''t let this damn fat man go!"
"... I see." Lauren hesitated with a slight sigh.
