Section 74 Judgment

Jeff listened to the report of his one-eyed man, strange descriptions and strange wood carvings, all of which revealed mystery. Jeff did not know everything about Arod. At the earliest, he only knew that it was the nephew of Hof Hannis, the dean of Saint Fontso, but gradually this unknown boy actually climbed to the peak of power in the Principal of Mason. The chief minister of the Principal of the Principal of the Principal of the Principal of the State of Mason, and even the powerful minister of the past Earl Lauzits became afraid.

"It's like witchcraft." Jeff touched his double chin. He couldn't understand the strange boy of the Wendell family, but this was not important. He sent someone to spy on Arod just to seize his handle. Perhaps Arod was trusted by Emble, the Regent of the Principal of Mason, and it is said that the royal family also has a good impression of him, but don't forget that there is a big man in the far south.

"Will a male witch appear in the Wendel family of the Knights?" said the one-eyed man incredibly.

"Arod's rise is really strange. Who knows the real situation? But if we make the church have such doubts, I'm afraid the Wendell family will face the church's questioning." Jeff's eyes flashed with cunning. Earl Lauzits' power is not bad, but this powerful earl is bound by the title of Duke Mason, which makes him restricted himself. In the eyes of the merchant Jeff, as long as he can achieve his goals and maximize his own interests, the noble's reserve is simply worthless.

"Ping~~." Suddenly, there was a violent sound of smashing the door in Jeff's attic. Jeff was shocked and stood up, poked out from the window. He saw several knights wearing black lion emblem shirts and chain mail holding swords and punching the wooden door of his house with his fists.

"Are you being followed?" Jeff said to the one-eyed man in surprise. He thought it was Arod's inner-house knights who discovered his subordinates. In order to avoid trouble, he immediately turned around and walked to another window, pushed the infrequently opened window, allowing the one-eyed man to drill out of the narrow window. This window leads to the roof.

"President Jeff, those knights are rushing in." Just as Jeff watched his subordinates get out of the window, jump onto the roof, disappearing like a quick cat, he felt relieved, but an accountant hired by Jeff stumbled and stumbled into the attic and reported to him. Jeff even heard the poor frightened child stepping on the wrong wooden ladder and fell down once, and when he got up again, he almost climbed into the attic.

"Who are you? This is the property of the Mason Town Merchant Guild. What are you going to do?" Jeff saw that almost immediately behind the accountant, several strong knights rushed up. They kicked open the wooden door and knocked Jeff's accountant into the corner.

"Businessman Jeff. You have been arrested." Jeff recognized that standing in front of him was Arod's inner-house knight, who seemed to be named Sir Ron. Sir Ron strode over and stepped on the floor of the attic. The floor made a creaking and sore sound, and the chain mail hood on the knight's head swayed, making a rustling sound.

"Adhere. I am the president of the Mason Town Merchant Guild. What charge do you use to arrest me?" Jeff calmed down his heart. He looked at the knights who rushed in with a pale face and questioned them loudly, but his mind was circling with something wrong. Is it because he stole the property of the Chamber of Commerce and was exposed, or did he use despicable means to slander his competitors? But why did he come to arrest him?

"Murder. You are suspected of murdering the former president of the Monastery, Lord Hoff Hannis," Sir Ron announced, then waved his hand and walked up to hold his arm and took him out of the attic.

"Ah, what happened?"

"I don't know, it seems that it is the knights of the Earl of Mecklenburg, who are going to arrest President Jeff."

"What crime?"

"It seems like murder."

"What? Murder is so terrible. God." Soon rumors spread all over the town of Mason, and many people gathered around Jeff's house. There was no more exciting entertainment than seeing a once rich and powerful person being brought to justice. There were no shortage of onlookers in any era. They were talking as if they were looking forward to a big show. Seeing Jeff, a businessman in fur tied his hands and being led by the knights to the castle, the crowd followed him tightly like a tide.

"I am wronged, God can testify for me." Jeff held up his tied hands and shouted loudly to the people around him. He did not expect that Arod would actually accuse him of murder. It seemed that he was going to kill him. As soon as Jeff was escorted to the castle, he was thrown into the dungeon.

In the early morning of the next day, because Jeff was also a well-known figure in Mason Town, and there were many people interested in this matter, the Regent Earl Emble, as the judge, carried out his right to be a lord referee. In the lord's hall, Embler Emble sat on his regent throne, with court officials with different expressions as juries on both sides, and Earl Lauzitz was also among them, and his face was gloomy and terrible. Because the incident involved a murdered clergyman, Hof Hannis, Embler Embler sent someone to call the district bishop.

"All nobles, and the respected servants of God, thank you for coming to participate in this judgment. Your attendance will reflect the dignity and justice of the law." The Regent Earl Emble sat on the throne and announced loudly to the people that this was an open judgment. Therefore, the door of the lord's hall was open, and there were many civilians and merchants crowded at the gate, and they all looked at the judgment with curious eyes.

"Please ask the plaintiff Earl Mecklenburg to make a statement." Earl Earl Earl Earl announced.

"Thank you, Lord Regent, I, Earl of Mecklenburg, Palace Prime Minister of the Principal of Mason, officially sued Jeff, the president of the Merchant Guild of Mason Town, and murdered the former dean of the Monastery, Hof Hannis, my blood relative and my uncle." Arod deliberately wore a white Germanic robe with black wool on his edge. He wore his own Earl's crown ring on his head and a golden neck hanging on his neck. He looked extremely solemn and noble. Even if he did not listen to his testimony, just seeing his serious and noble appearance made people believe the truth of his words.

"Sir Earl, the palace minister trusted by my father, Duke Mason. If you tell the truth, then the merchant Jeff will face the most severe punishment. It is a serious crime for civilians to kill nobles. If a sacred clergyman, then they will face even more serious punishment. Are you right? "Regent Emblem Eble asked the bishop on the left, the fat and bald bishop with a serious face, watching everything that happened in the hall. He was wearing a green wool bishop's robe and holding a shepherd's hand.

"You are right, respected Lord Regent, hurting a servant of God is the greatest sin. Not only will his body be punished, but his soul will also fall into a hell of endless pain, burning forever by the karma of hell, and the sound of pain will never stop." The loud voice of the bishop of the area, coupled with the dome-shaped lord hall, made him echo with threatening words. The civilians standing at the door of the lord hall shrank their heads in fright.

"Regent, Bishop, this is just a charge, and there is no conviction yet." Earl Lauziz said loudly in dissatisfaction. He was a little overwhelmed by the sudden change, but he knew very well that Arud must have known that the merchant Jeff was doing his own work, so he started to attack his subordinates directly. Earl Lauziz understood that if he could not protect his subordinates, then he would have no one to be available in the future, making no matter how powerful he had, it would be useless.

"You said that to Count Lauziz, bring the defendant merchant Jeff with him." Earl Emble nodded and replied fairly, then ordered the guard to bring Jeff who was locked in the dungeon. However, when Jeff was taken to the lord's hall, the nobles and civilians burst into laughter. The merchant's hair was cut as if it was bitten by a dog, and his clothes were torn. When he walked around, he could see the white butts inside from the gaps in the clothes.

"We protest, and we cannot impose punishment on President Jeff until there is a conviction." At this time, the representative of the Mason Town Merchant Guild protested loudly to the Regent Earl Earl Emble.

"He was not hurt at all. You can check it out and you can see it from the gap in his clothes." Arod said to the representative of the merchant guild seriously, and used his hand to push the gap in Jeff's pants. The white butt that leaked immediately made everyone laugh again. Jeff was so angry that he trembled all over, but he had no choice. Jeff's body was indeed not hurt at all, but mentally, I'm sorry that there was no mental loss in the Middle Ages.

"This is humiliation," chiluo, naked humiliation." The representative of the merchant guild protested again. This public humiliation was more serious than whipping, but the Regent Earl Eble reached out to stop them.

"The protest is invalid. Jeff is just a civilian and cannot enjoy the dignity of the nobles. You have also seen that Jeff's body was not hurt at all. If it is confirmed, we can start the judgment." Earl Earl said.
