Chapter 447 The Noble Duke is Cruel and Brutal 11
The lazy Sang Ying sounded in the empty hall.
The group of elite knights that Leonard had been training since his return brought all the assassins in front of him.
He sat in the highest seat.
The snow-white stool and his blood-stained suit formed an extremely vivid color oil painting.
Leonard, who is as delicate as a person in a painting, has his legs crossed casually.
His fingers were placed lightly on his forehead, and he glanced at the assassins being held in custody below the stage with his eyelids half-raised.
The voice is as light as a feather, yet as thin as a razor blade.
Sharp and murderous.
"kill."
Just one word made the assassins' faces change drastically.
The cry for help only had time to reach his throat, let out a painful whimper, and then was swallowed back completely and forever.
Malixiu came back to his senses from the bloody memories and looked at the smile on Duke Leon's face. He felt that the temperature at the banquet had dropped a little.
He seemed to smell a faint smell of blood in the banquet.
Brurick obviously didn't realize this.
He had no response to Leonard's sudden questioning of the jewelry on him.
Instead, he turned the topic back to Lingyao.
"Duke Leon, don't pretend you don't understand me. Oriental man, what right do you have to say that all this has nothing to do with Leonard? Everyone present saw Leonard attack Brutus. Could it be that a dignified Duke is planning to learn the tricks of street thugs and cheat?"
This old man is really good at nagging.
Lingyao listened to Bririck's rambling.
The words were concise and shocking: "Are Brooks and his men dead?"
Lingyao speaks with a fluent accent and doesn't sound like an Oriental at all.
Everyone and Hart were stunned when they heard this.
Only then did Hart realize that Lingyao could speak the language of the Bil country.
When Brukrick heard Lingyao's words, his face instantly turned red with anger.
If there weren't so many people on the court, the King and Leonard would have stood aside.
There is no doubt that he will take action against Lingyao directly.
To be honest, Lingyao was kind of looking forward to him taking action.
Prince Hart, who was standing next to him, saw that the situation was becoming increasingly tense, and was considering starting with Lingyao.
Come out quickly to ease the atmosphere.
"Miss, you misunderstood. Although Brooks and his men were seriously injured, their lives are not in danger at this time. Besides Duke Leonard, there will be no one else in the field who will attack them."
As he spoke, he cast a gentle look at Lingyao and Brukrick.
Hart felt that his words had helped Lingyao out of the predicament, and Lingyao would definitely be grateful to him.
He spoke up for Brukrick again, which was just right.
And just after he finished speaking, Lingyao spoke again coldly.
"Since they are not dead, wouldn't it be better to ask them who beat them?"
As soon as Lingyao finished speaking, Leonard was the first to laugh.
"I think what you said is very true. You can't just pick up a half-dead person on the ground and say that I beat him up. Am I such a cruel person?"
As Leonard's slow voice rang out, the stadium fell into silence for a moment.
Even the people watching the show looked a little embarrassed.
I really want to say something.
Duke Leonard, you are joking, that's just who you are.
But what Lingyao said was reasonable. Since Leonard, a duke, had protested, we couldn't really convict him without any basis.
The key point is that King Bill and Brukrick and his people firmly believe it.
Only Leonard could beat Brooks like this.
First, no one except Leonard dared to attack Brooks.
Second, they believe that no one will vent Leonard's anger.
I think no one will stand on Leonard's side, and no one will offend Bruhus because of Leonard.
They all know clearly that Leonard is in a high position and has great power.
But he only has himself.
With this idea in mind, the few of them did not refute Lingyao's suggestion.
Instead, I agreed. After all, what difference would it make even if he asked?
In short, there is only one result.
Leonard thought so too, but at this moment he couldn't suppress the indescribable emotions that surged in his heart.
That kind of emotion is like walking on a tightrope, full of unpredictable excitement.
What was different from the previous excitement was that this time there seemed to be a gift box at the end of the wire.
At this moment, Leonard was more excited about the contents of the gift box than the excitement.
Soon, the king and his men sent people to find and question the viscounts who had woken up first.
Several viscounts, still wounded, were brought to the king by carriage.
Seeing such a big scene, they were a little flustered. They were not like Brooks who was fearless.
Their family is just the lowest level of nobility.
They were quickly frightened when facing the king and the two dukes, especially Duke Leonard who had spoken rudely to them before.
Until they heard the king asking them whether today's injuries were related to Duke Leonard.
How could these people dare to tell a lie? They immediately knelt on the ground and expressed their disapproval in panic.
They had never seen Duke Leonard in the bathroom today, and their injuries had nothing to do with Duke Leonard.
"Damn bastards!" Duke Brukrick on the side was the first to stand up and point his finger at several people and curse.
"You bastards must have been bribed by Leonard. No wonder Leonard asked you to testify. It turns out he had prepared for this."
The people in the audience were also afraid to offend Duke Brukrick, and they explained hastily with pale faces.
"No, Your Excellency, we have never met with Duke Leonard. We are telling the truth. If we lie, God will punish us."
Brukrick didn't believe a word they said.
His face was so gloomy that ink seemed to drip out.
He looked at them with an angry look in his eyes and said sarcastically, "Really? If it wasn't for Leonard, how did you get injured, and how did Brisius get seriously injured? I advise you to think clearly before you speak. Otherwise, when Brooks wakes up, God may forgive you for perjury, but I will never let you go easily!"
Several people were frightened by Brukrick's words and broke out in cold sweats.
I wanted to say something, but my mind went blank and I couldn't remember what happened at that time.
All I remember is that they were standing together and insulting Leonard.
Thinking of this, their faces turned pale.
He didn't even dare to look at Leonard.
There was a person who had just woken up, but fainted again under such heavy pressure.
At this time, Leonard was slowly wiping the ring on his finger.
Hart stared at the ring in a daze.
He remembered that the ring was worn on the hand of that oriental beauty when he set out today.
But this time it was worn on Leonard's finger.
His fingers are long and white, and they look very beautiful with the ring on them.
Leonard slowly polished the gems on the ring.
Looking at the heavy atmosphere in the venue, he let out a long sigh.
"How cruel, Duke Bruck! Are you going to torture them to extract a confession? Look at these people, they are so pitiful."
The people standing nearby could no longer maintain the serious expressions on their faces.
The complexion is distorted.
Is it really okay for you, Duke Leonard, to say such a word as cruel?
Do you still feel pity for these people?
Everyone knows that the people kneeling there are the ones who cursed him the most harshly.
What does the sympathy on your face mean now, Duke Leonard?!
