Zhan turned around, faced the guests, and smiled:

"Emerald City is deeply sorry for this."

The Duke spoke in a gentle and cordial manner, and the vassals and guests looked at each other in astonishment.

"It's okay, Your Majesty the Duke," the first person to speak was the member of the Immortal Parliament, the vampire Yannik. He smiled gracefully and set the tone for the event, "Who doesn't have a few black sheep?"

His words were echoed by many people.

"The situation in the Emerald City is great and prosperous, and the external forces are jealous and jealous," an old direct vassal snorted, "Of course there are flies and mosquitoes buzzing."

"The Holy Saint Talal has a saying: Do not avoid each other's family scandals to become close relatives, and do not hide each other's faults to become close friends." The envoy from Cong Zhongcheng humbly replied, "Our Dusu Antaral and the Duke will never go against each other.

A few interludes, nothing to mention."

"Actually, I quite enjoyed it. It was much more interesting than the previous years." Harsha, the special envoy of the Tyron Trading State, hugged his concubine and laughed, "Of course, if you need our help, Duke

Just say it! Or, at the tariff meeting tomorrow..."

"Lack of public security is our city's fault," Zhan En interrupted him in time, with a smile on his face, "Relevant departments are following up to remedy the situation, please be patient."

Facing these guests, Zhan En comforted them one by one and responded earnestly, his words were flawless, as if the turmoil just now did not exist.

Thales frowned repeatedly.

"It seems that no matter whether vassals, partners, or even competitors," Miranda frowned, "no matter whether they are high-sounding or have ulterior motives, they have no reason to support a man who has been out of power for a long time, has been on the run for many years, and has neither power nor power.

After the unprofitable chaos."

"Not to mention the court hall, police hall, and city hall in the city..." Paul sighed, "This young master of Kevin Deere's branch, his incitement and accusations are pale and feeble, and are nothing but a bustle.

In fact, the moment he laid down his weapons, sent away his bodyguards, and surrendered, he lost."

Is it.

Thales fell into deep thought.

Federico, did he really lose?

If he is really what he thinks, he is here to bring down Zhan...

Is that all there is to it?

So what is he waiting for?

What else has the secret department prepared?

What else does Kessel V plan to do?

A higher edict? Unexpected evidence? An overwhelming public opinion? A traitor who has sneaked into the interior? A foreign enemy with troops suppressing the border?

Or something else?

What bargaining chip can he use to make a comeback?

While Thales was thinking hard, Federico was finally brought to the Duke's stand smoothly and smoothly.

"How are you going to deal with him, sir?" Tanganga, the captain of the Sea Wolf Ship Group, stared at Federico who was getting closer and closer. He smiled and geared up, "If you want me to tell you, leave it to me and take him to the sea to have a look.

Eternal Whale..."

"The Emerald Celebration is a great day, a joyous celebration," Zhan En smiled and spread his hands, responding to the guests, "Everyone, who said I was going to kill someone?"

He turned around and walked down the steps towards Federico below the stage.

"On the contrary, I want to give him the treatment he deserves," the Emerald Sergeants cleared a path among the crowd, allowing Zhan to walk towards the prisoner. "After all, he can also be regarded as Kevin Dill, bleeding with the blood of Iris.

For the people of Emerald City."

Amid the approval and approval from the vassals and guests, Thales and Hilley looked at each other and both stepped down the steps.

Seeing Seychelles and Cassian accompanying the two Kevin Dills, Wyatt was startled, and quickly called on everyone to follow Thales, formed a formation, and tried to look like a prince.

"Long time no see, Feder."

Under the attention of a crowd of guests and even an entire arena, Zhan looked calm and looked down at Federico, who was kneeling on the ground and tied tightly with no possibility of struggling:

"you lost weight."

Federico, whose face was covered with blood, wanted to get up, but was held down by the guard behind him. He chuckled:

"If you died once, cousin, you would realize that losing weight isn't that hard."

Hilley looked at the prisoner in front of him, hesitated again and again, and finally couldn't help but ask:

"Feder, you...why?"

Federico turned his head.

"Ah, Cecilia, my innocent and innocent sister. You have really grown up a lot, haven't you," his smile was sarcastic, "You are now tall and graceful, waiting to become another Queen of Kevin Dill?"

Hilley frowned:

"I thought you were dead."

"Then you think you are right. Oh, His Highness Thales," Federico turned to Thales, his eyes lit up, "I have admired him for a long time, and finally I can meet him... Please accept my thanks, I am very grateful!

"

He used all his strength to kneel and bow awkwardly.

Thales' eyes moved:

"Why? You and I have never met each other."

Federico laughed uncontrollably - compared to Zhan's polite and perfect smile, Federico's smile was more arrogant.

"Indeed, but if it weren't for His Highness's blessing, I would never have returned to the Emerald City." His eyes were glaring, "Of course I would like to thank you very much."

"Lord Zhane!"

One of the patriarchs of the Thirteen Noble Families, Earl Lassia of the Zeland, stood out from the crowd and was filled with righteous indignation, which was particularly special:

"As far as I know, Federico Kevin Dear is a traitor. He escaped death back then, but now he is still stubborn and his true nature is hard to change! Sir, please give the order immediately to kill this thief!"

Federico snorted disdainfully:

"A traitor has the nerve to criticize others?"

Count Lassia's expression changed, he cursed loudly, and was held tightly by his eldest son.

While Zhan was comforting the Earl, his eyes wandered and looked at the two girls behind Earl Lassia.

The next second, the two girls looked at each other and raised their heads solemnly:

"Kasha Karabyan, please protect the Duke and impose severe punishment to set the record straight."

"Qina of the Twin Towers and Long Sword, I suggest Master Zhan En to eradicate the root cause and avoid being soft-hearted."

The two serious sisters had shrewd eyes, raised their hands, and opened two folding fans in tacit understanding. One of them read "Obey as ordered" and the other said "Loyalty."

Thales heard a disdainful snort from Hilley beside him.

Seeing the two major vassal families expressing their stance, Zhan En finally smiled.

"Ha, wisdom is on the left, the sword is on the right," Federico said sarcastically, "and Karabyan is always in the middle, you know what he looks like - a wallflower."

Karabyan's twins showed almost identical smiles.

"That's enough, Federico Cavendier."

Zhan En called out his cousin's name with dignity.

"As a criminal who faked his death and absconded, you mustered up the courage to surrender and surrender. This is admirable, but on the other hand, you are stubborn and insist on..."

"Are you finished, cousin, Young Master Zhan En?"

Federico interrupted him with a look of disdain on his face: "Should we go through the process of going to prison, or should we just get on the boat and go to the high seas?"

Zhan En looked tense.

"In the name of Sunset, the King and the ancestors of Kevin Deer, what you have complained about, whether it is the doubts about the death of Uncle Sona or the murders in the past few days, Emerald City will find out the truth and witness it in the entire kingdom.

I will give you justice and the most just trial."

"Judgment? You, cousin, are you going to put me on trial?" Federico sneered, as if he had heard the most ridiculous thing.

"It's not me, it's the Emerald City."

Zhan En said in a cold voice: "Whether it was inciting riots eleven years ago and causing countless disasters, or eleven years later he was stubborn and continued to cause chaos."

Federico laughed out loud:

"Then why don't you kill me now?"

Zhan shook his head:

"Don't worry, you will get the punishment you deserve - the Emerald City has its own laws and does not allow people with ulterior motives to use illegal actions to cause corruption."

There was a sound of agreement among the vassals.

Federico laughed after hearing what Zhan said.

"I know, I know why you are so proud and so confident of winning, cousin..."
