After I became a real young master, I became famous for my bad behavior

Then, Sheen looked at the two children:

"You two are responsible for the 'wealth' of Imperius, and you pose no threat to other families. You also don't have Imperius blood in you."

When Sheen said this, he looked at Leo and Florin.

"so..."

(at the same time!)

Sheen and Scott both set their sights on Eric - the person who poisoned him was targeting Eric!

Eric felt ashamed.

"Ah I??"

Eric's sky-blue eyes "widened like bells," and he pointed at himself in disbelief.

"No, what good would it do Viscount Bollera to do if he poisoned me?"

Scott gave Eric a blank look and said coldly:

"Otherwise, why did Sheen use the term 'the mastermind'?"

Scott turned his head back to look at Sheen:

"It seems you have a premonition of something."

"Yuye also understands, she just doesn't say it."

In response to Scott's greeting, Sheen did not intend to speak out, but used silence to make his position clear.

After a long silence, Xien put his hands in his pockets and finally said what he should say:

“I just did what I was supposed to do.

“If it were any other Haines, they would have wished for the death of all the Impers except you and the Duke.

"They believe deep down that adopted people without noble blood or lowly bastards are not worthy of the name 'Impert'."

Haines?!

Eric and Florine turned pale.

yes...

His status was high enough to easily plant a spy in the north, and he also knew that Grango combined with minerals could produce drug antagonism.

To deliver these foods safely to Impes, they also attach great importance to the so-called bloodline,

Classifying illegitimate children and commoners as "lower status"...

The hint is already obvious:

"This poisoning was probably driven by 'someone' from Haines."

Of course, Sheen didn't say who did such a crazy thing, which was considered as leaving that person with the last bit of dignity.

“Ah…”

Eric's face was solemn, and he stared at the two afternoon tea guests with murderous intent.

"They just wanted to poison me, and they wanted all my family members to die with me..."

No one except Sheen, the Emperor and his son, and Ada knew that Sheen had obtained the "Charter".

Naturally, if Haines committed a serious crime, Sheen would still be punished, which was deeply rooted in people's minds.

"Sheen." (Eric)

Sheen looked up.

““They’re not worth it.””

Eric's last words were something Sheen had not expected. Of course, everyone present knew what Eric had said abruptly -

A person with a conscience like you really can't be dragged down by them.

"Thank you for your sudden affection." Xien said lightly with half-opened eyes.

It seems that Sheen is no longer surprised by such things.

Scott couldn't help but turn his head away, trying not to laugh out loud.

Eric stared at the pastries and milkshakes in silence for a while, and then he said something that made everyone nervous.

"Hey?

"How could I miss the opportunity to expose the mastermind behind this? Isn't this a good opportunity to disrupt the morale of the people in the South?

"This poison cannot be wasted."

!!!

Except for Eric, everyone straightened up, their eyes widened, and then they all stared at Eric in surprise.

This is Leo's cry:

"can not eat!"

Leo suddenly pounced and grabbed the lid of the pot of mint milkshake, raised his head and shouted at Eric:

"No, Brother Eric, you can't commit suicide..."

Not really...

"Hey, hey, what are you panicking about?" (Eric)

Eric wiped the sweat off his forehead with the back of his hand. He was almost frightened by Leo's big move:

At that second, he was even struggling over whether to jump up or sit on the chair to catch Leo.

Luckily Leo just hugged the pot instead of falling to the ground...

call...

Eric put his hands down and continued to sit in the chair, facing Leo who had a serious expression on his face.

"You can't eat! Or I won't get up from the table!"

Leo held on to the pot tightly and tried to stop Eric in a crazy literary way.

Sheen was overwhelmed by Leo's bestial roar.

This...is not the case.

And it really seems to be of no use.

Eric tilted his head and glared at Leo with an embarrassed look on his face, crossing his arms over his chest:

"Don't forget, I'm a pharmacist. I know how to control the dosage of medicine better than anyone else."

Everyone was silent, just staring blankly at Eric who was confident in his decision.

They felt disappointed.

"Eric..." (Sheen and Scott)

"You are a ruthless person..."

(Like)

Sheen's inner thoughts: I had the courage to drink poison at Haynes's banquet. Of course, Eric is a professional and he won't risk his life...

Everyone else gave Eric a thumbs-up.

......

Before long, everyone in the Duke's Mansion heard the maid's movements.

"what!!"

"The young master has been poisoned!!"

Everyone is just acting according to the situation.

"Go get a doctor! Go get a doctor! There's something wrong with the young master's afternoon tea!" (Maid)

"Ahh! Master, you can't die!" (Butler)

"Get the best doctor in the North right now!" (The Duke)

"What? Could it be that the food sent by Viscount Bollera is poisonous?" (Leo)

"Oh no, the drugs are incompatible. We need to get the Saint Lady here to treat him right away." (Doctor)

"Hey, be serious!"

Scott punched the doctor directly (he explained the script to the doctor in advance and paid him a little more as acting fee).

"You clearly know that the current Saint is a daughter of the Haines family, and we don't have a good relationship with Haines!"

"Scott, calm down! This is a matter of life and death!" The Duchess was also here to act.

"If all else fails, call Viscount Belmont over. She was awarded the title for saving the crown prince. After all, her holy power is recognized by the royal family, so Haines doesn't need to take any credit." (Dalia)

This "Miss Viscount Belmont" is Ada (for details, see the end of the third volume where Ada was conferred the title of 'Viscount Belmont' by the royal family), which also improved Ada's reputation.

"Okay, I'll get someone to call him right away!" (Leo)

Ta da da da...

Leo turned around and ran out, running as fast as he could.

"Leo, Leo! Don't be impulsive!"

Florin sat in a wheelchair and was pushed out by the deacon.

"Master, Miss!"

The sound of everyone's footsteps brought the entire performance to a perfect end.

This play was performed for the nobles who did business with the Duke - only by letting them know that "Eric" was poisoned could the news spread quickly to the social circle.

Then there will be a good show to watch.
