Chapter 34: Battle of the West (6)
Jing Hua and Mingkong stopped and turned around.
I saw a figure shaking at the foot of the mountain, and more than 30 people entered the "Jiguang Temple". The leader was a burly man with a trench eyes and a tiger kiss, and nine ring scars were printed on his bald head. He was wearing a big red cassock and was obviously a monk with cultivation.
The next ten people were dressed in luxurious clothes, with swords and swords. Some were wearing light armor, chain armor, and iron shields. Usually, only nobles would have such a formation when traveling.
Jing Hua narrowed his eyes. The leading monk's aura was overflowing, slightly inferior to Abbot Mingkong, and should be a "white-robed monk". Three or four people behind him were holding guns or holding swords, and their cultivation was roughly similar to that. In Xichui, the strength of the people at the foot of the mountain was powerful, and they were by no means comparable to ordinary nobles.
Mingkong frowned, with a slightly dissatisfied face.
He naturally knew the nobles such as Tywin. Inviting Dongfangwu to come to the "Buddha Order Meeting" was their request. Now the Viscount of Dongfang arrived as scheduled. Before the people entered the temple, the Marquis of Tywin led the crowd to arrive. It was obvious that they must have come to provoke the army to question the crime.
The open and hollow made up their minds, and Buddhism was not convenient to intervene in the conflict between the nobles. But if Taywin and others wanted to scatter in the "Jiguang Temple" and think about "the same sect and sect", they would never stand by and watch, at least they would save the life of Viscount Oriental.
The burly monk walked very hard and soon came to Sheng Youwen. He glared at him, and the law-enforcement monk was frightened by his power and let go of the monks in his hands. Sheng You bowed his head and bent down to his master, lowered his voice and quietly reported.
Jing Hua's spiritual sense is extraordinary and he can hear it clearly. Several monks are desperately trying to spread rumors, such as "raising funds to build temples", such as "schooling for money" and being disturbed by outsiders, and losing heavily.
According to what Sheng said, Monk Xinyong was considered the "master behind the scenes", and most of the income from the opening of the preaching was his. As expected, after listening to his disciple's report, Xinyong's eyes flashed with fierce light and stared at Jing Hua fiercely.
At this moment, Tywin and others walked up the stone steps and had arrived opposite Jinghua. They saluted Mingkong first, and Lanser stepped forward.
"His Excellency Tywin Rotrek, Marquis of Siddh, has you come from an outsider? Why don't you meet him?"
Jing Hua did not surprise the other party. The "Buddhist Association" was an excuse, and the Adler family had information about the real purpose, and he even knew that Tywin's few capable generals were under his command.
The Dongfang clan has no direct relationship with "Triumph City". Since the other party's name is "outsider", it means that things cannot be done. He smiled slightly and nodded and said, "It's an honor to see you, Lord Tywin..."
Taywin was very dissatisfied. "Oriental Martial Arts" used "first ceremony", which was equivalent to peer-class etiquette for meeting, rather than "bow-back ceremony" for meeting nobles. "Lion King Castle" relied on some strength, was so arrogant and really didn't know the world was high.
"snort......"
The Marquis sneered, showing his disdain for the "first tribute". Baron Frey stood behind him and was impatient to wait.
"Xihe City" fell into the hands of the Dongfang clan, and the Frei family became the "duckweed nobleman". He was very angry every day and just wanted to get back the territory as soon as possible. Now that he saw Lord Tywin was angry, the opportunity was rare, and the Baron could no longer hold it in.
“Bold!”
Wade Frey rushed out of the crowd and cursed: "What are you? How dare you be so disrespectful to the Marquis? Lord Taywin, this person is the Dongfangwu I mentioned. He is arrogant and rude, greedy, and conspires with Qiu to seize my fief. Please arbitrate this conflict and severely punish the villains who destroy the tradition of the nobles!"
Tywin nodded and asked seriously: "Baron Oriental, is it really what Mr. Foley said? It is a serious crime to seize other people's fiefdoms, and even His Majesty the Emperor cannot forgive him."
Jing Hua shook his head. Until this moment, Tywin and Frey were still acting. They were not willing to offend His Highness the Prince head-on, but also wanted to show the strength of the Rotrek family. In the end, they got inappropriate and had to see the truth.
"His Excellency Tywin, first of all, correct me. I am the viscount conferred by His Highness the Prince, and I was awarded the "Medal of the Imperial Guardian". As for what Baron Frey said is true or false? Is this very important? A few months ago he came to the "City of Triumph" twice and entered the Marquis' Mansion to discuss the "major plan". Baron Tywin, is this matter true or false?"
"You...what are you talking nonsense!"
Wade Frey was shocked. A few months ago, he came to "Triumph City" to meet Tywin to receive the secret order.
Since it was too big to temporarily "get out" the "Xihe City", the matter was too big. After receiving the order, Foley rushed back to discuss and asked the Marquis for some benefits, so he reluctantly agreed. This matter was done very secretly. How did Dongfang Wu know?
"You...you are swearing and lying! Why did you come to 'Triumph City' twice? I haven't been there at all, and I haven't even seen Lord Lansell!"
"ha......"
"whee....."
All the nobles and monks around frowned, and some of them were not very cunning and laughed out loud on the spot. The so-called "no sound" is probably the best interpretation of Frey. Lanser cursed in his heart, and on the surface he had to help cover it up.
"This is a good thing... Baron Oriental, without any evidence, can't you frame the blame?"
Marquis Tywin's face was as deep as water. How did Dongfang Wu get such a secret news? Is his attack on "Xihe City" just an appearance, and someone is planning it behind his back?
Before he could figure it out, Jing Hua took the lead and said, "If it is true or false, you might as well let it go first. Lord Tywin, Baron Frey escaped at the battle of 'Xihe City', and left the city, and the people hid in the 'Triumph City' with gold and silver. According to the law of the empire, the nobles have the responsibility to defend the people. Baron Frey gave up the responsibility of aristocrats and was not worthy of enjoying the privilege of fief...."
Speaking of this, Jing Hua took a step forward and approached the other party. Fo Lei was intimidated by his aura and couldn't help but take two steps back.
"...I was conferred by His Highness the Prince and arbitrated the dispute north of the 'Lion King Castle'. Therefore, Baron Frey's fiefdom rule was abolished and the 'Lion King Castle' was managed on his behalf..."
"Shit! Why did Prince White arbitrate the Xitchi dispute?"
Folei was so anxious that he was sweating profusely that he directly interrupted Jing Hua's "verdict".
"Xihe City" is the foundation for the survival and development of the Foley family. If it is lost like this, the family will decline from now on and there is almost no possibility of resurrection. In desperation, he took the prince directly without saying a word.
The relationship between imperial power and feudal power has always been subtle. Every emperor hopes to expand the scope of power and interfere in the disputes between fiefs. The nobles confront each other in a certain balance. The strong emperor will give more power, while the weak emperor will not leave the palace.
Baron Frey's direct denial of imperial power was undoubtedly a taboo, and it was an act of "unwise" among the nobles. However, it was related to the fate of the family, and Mr. Wade didn't care about so much.
"Your Excellency Tywin, you heard it, did you see it? Viscount Oriental was completely unscrupulous. Relying on the momentum of the prince, he dared to openly plunder the noble fiefs. He was simply a monster, I..."
