I really can't control myself

Chapter 1288 Processing

This matter is neither big nor small, but it still needs to be dealt with immediately. First of all, this matter is not a scandal. After all, both Jorah and Garsain are unmarried. They will sleep with you if you say they want to. The biggest problem is that they are unmarried. After all, sleeping together before marriage is not a common thing in this world. It is also considered a taboo thing, especially the reputation of the woman will be relatively poor.

However, what is more troublesome now is that this matter has been spread everywhere for some reason, which is more troublesome. Jorah is the eldest princess and a member of the royal family. Royal matters cannot become a topic of discussion among the people after dinner, otherwise it will damage the majesty of the royal family. It is necessary to rule to keep the people in awe, and they cannot be allowed to have the idea that "the royal people are just like the royal family." The concept of "looking for the head and the common people".

Yalan and Linton arrived at the scene in person. The two people are currently staying at the mansion of the Meroway family in the Imperial City. It was also the former Duke of Rennes' palace. It is now temporarily used as the investigation headquarters. This is where the incident happened. of.

There are two things to be investigated at present, one is who administered the drug, and the other is who spread the news.

"What if... it's not drugged?" When the carriage was halfway through, Yalan suddenly raised this possibility. After all, no one below had reported that it was drugged. This was just a guess by her and Linton.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Linton said, "That guy my nephew..."

"No, how much prejudice do you have against your nephew? Do you need to say it so categorically?" Yalan said, holding her forehead.

"Based on your conscience, what do you think is the possibility of drugging?" Linton asked.

"Uh... about... 80%?" Yalan thought for a while and said.

"It's so embarrassing..." Linton said.

"So let me tell you how biased you are." Yalan raised her forehead.

As they talked, the two of them had already arrived at the Duke's Mansion, which was not far away anyway. When they arrived, they got good news, that is, one of the things they wanted to investigate had been completed, and yes, the person who spread the word about it had been caught.

Of course, people in the Duke's Palace already knew about this matter, and they also knew that Her Majesty the Queen would definitely come to ask about this matter, so the self-examination work had already started. Since the news spread from here, it was most likely spread by people in the Duke's Palace. So the people who were in charge of guarding last night and the people who had been in and out of the Duke's Palace this morning were all arrested and interrogated first. Of course, the method of interrogation was It's also very simple, just hit it and it's done.

Not long after Yalan and Linton arrived, a beaten man covered in blood was dragged in front of them. Seeing the man beaten like this, both Yalan and Linton frowned. They still knew that beatings turned into tricks. Yes, they have all been beaten like this. He will probably admit whatever you ask him to admit.

Linton looked directly at Eke, the chief steward of the Duke's Palace next to him. Eke was also smart and immediately understood what Linton meant. He stepped forward and said, "Master, it was really him who spread the news."

The subtext is that this really doesn't mean finding someone to support him, and Linton still understands it. Linton still believed Ek's words. This guy was one of his own, so he shouldn't deceive him. Nodding to Yalan next to her, Yalan understood what Linton meant.

"Why do you do this? Who asked you to do this?" Yalan asked directly to the beaten and bloody guard below. This guard's name is Xiaogla. He was one of the guards responsible for guarding last night. The guard captain has already reported the basic information.

"Reporting to Your Majesty... I didn't mean it, I just accidentally... I lost my words and said it... no one instigated me." Xiaogla here gasped and vomited blood in his mouth as he spoke.

"That's nonsense. You've been in the job for more than ten years, don't you understand this?" Before Yalan could finish speaking, the guard captain next to him came up and said, "Hurry up and tell the person who instigated you behind the scenes. For the sake of your colleagues, I'll give you a good time."

"It's really...it's just a minor slip of the tongue..." Xiaogla said with his head lowered.

"You..." The guard captain was furious. Yes, Xiaogla was his subordinate. If something happened to one of his subordinates, of course he would be implicated. Now if Xiaogla reveals the person behind the scenes, he will immediately apply to the emperor to make up for the crime and arrest the person. The captain of the guard feels that he still has a chance to offset the merits and demerits without being implicated. As a result, Xiaogla is unwilling to say anything. , can he not be angry?

"Did you give the medicine...?" Yalan asked again.

"What kind of medicine? Your Majesty." Xiaogla asked strangely, and the others also looked at Yalan a little strangely, because at present, in their minds, this matter was just a leak. What happened to the medicine...?

"Pull it down and ask clearly." Yalan waved and said.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will definitely let him speak." The guard captain next to him immediately stopped the move, fearing that Yalan's next words would pull him down too.

"I'm going to see my sister." Yalan said to Linton next to her.

"I'm going to find Garsain," Linton said.

"Yeah." Yalan nodded, and then walked directly towards the backyard.

"Hey, wait a minute." As soon as Yalan left, Linton stopped the captain of the guard who was about to leave.

"Sword... Master Sword Master." Hearing Linton call him, the guard captain here was of course panicked to death. He walked up to Linton cautiously and lowered his head.

"As for this matter, handle it as I say." Linton said.

"Yes, sir." The guard captain said immediately. In fact, most ministers knew that in this country, Linton's words were more useful than the emperor.

"I don't care why this person was reported to the outside world. Now you will lead a team to arrest people. Who will be reported to, and who will be informed after that? Follow them one by one, and arrest a hundred people. Then there is no need to continue. Take these one hundred people to the square at the west entrance of the city and hang them all, tell everyone why these guys were hanged, do you understand?" Linton said.

"Obviously... I understand." The guard captain replied with a cold sweat. This is a ruthless person. He hangs a hundred people without saying anything. The purpose is of course very clear. Kill chickens to scare monkeys. You like to spread the news, right? Try it? Obviously this is the simplest way to solve the current situation outside. It is guaranteed that after these 100 people are hanged, no one will discuss this matter again.

"Hmm..." Linton nodded, touched his chin, and looked at the guard captain here. Seeing Linton looking at him, the guard captain here was really panicked. He was afraid that Linton's next words would kill him too.

However, what Linton was looking at was the armor on his body. This guy was not wearing the armor of the Duke's palace guard. Linton asked directly: "You are the captain of the palace guard, right?"

"This official is the captain of the princess's guard." The guard captain replied.

Linton learned from his mouth that there are currently two groups of guards in the Duke's Palace. One part of them is naturally the guards of the Duke's Palace itself, and the other part is naturally the guards protecting Jorah. These guards are naturally the guards of the palace, because Qiao La La now does not have his own palace.

Obviously, Xiaogla, who spread the news, was also a member of the palace guard. Hearing this, Linton was stunned for a moment: "Did you just say that he has been in the job for more than ten years?"

"Yes." The guard captain nodded, then thought for a while and said, "Master Sword Master, I am also a little strange. Xiaogla entered the reserve force of the palace at the age of twelve. I have watched him grow up. I really want to I don’t know why he would do this..."

Linton, the captain of the guard, also understood what he meant. You said that someone behind Xiaogla deliberately discredited the royal family. This guy has been a palace guard for more than ten years, and no one doubted him. You said that you would do something detrimental to the royal family. Those who do better will end up just passing on the inside information of the royal family, and the harm is too small. Besides, he has been working in the palace for more than ten years. How could someone who entered the palace at such a young age be sent as an undercover agent by another force? It seems unlikely.

"In your opinion, is Xiaogra loyal to His Highness Jorah?" Linton suddenly asked.

"Huh?" The guard captain was stunned for a moment, not expecting Linton to ask such a question. Looking at it now, how could Shogra be loyal to His Highness Jorah? If he was loyal, he would spread these things?

"I said before today?" Linton added.

"Before today, I really didn't see that he would do this." The guard captain said, "Of course this is my responsibility. Please punish me, Lord Sword Master."

"Yeah... I understand." Linton nodded, then waved his hand, "Go and do the work, follow my previous instructions. Keep this person for now, don't kill him."

"Yes, sir." The guard captain breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Linton didn't punish him, he left quickly with Xiaogla.

"Uh... I always feel... my sister-in-law seems a bit cruel." Linton suddenly stood up and murmured.

"Master." Uncle Eke walked over and happened to hear Linton say this.

"Uncle Eck, have you heard the motto of our Meloway family?" Linton said, "If a woman is ruthless, there will be nothing for men to do."

"No, young master, our Meloway family's collection of mottos can hardly be written anymore," Ek said.

"When did our family have a collection of proverbs?" Linton asked.

"It's the quotations from you, young master, that I collected and compiled, not the quotations handed down from the Meloway family..."

"Good guy, you really compiled it into a booklet. Have you written down the part about the rebellion?" Linton asked.

"...Master, do you need to write this too?" Ek asked, "This is an enlightenment book I plan to teach the young master after he is born..."

"God TN used this thing to enlighten me, I thank you." Linton held his forehead, "Where is Garsain?"

"Master, the Duke is in the backyard." Ek said.

"Take me to find him first," Linton said. "I suddenly felt that this matter was a bit interesting. It seemed that someone had tricked my nephew on my behalf."
