There was an uproar in the spectators.

As an ancient empire with a history of thousands of years, the Guangyao Empire still retains many traditions that are often dismissed by progressives as "conservative", "backward" and "not in line with the modern spirit".

For example, although the rule of law is implemented in the empire and equality before the law is advocated, the emperor and some great nobles still enjoy power above the law at the practical level and enjoy many privileges.It is precisely because the emperor still has great power that various factions will compete fiercely around the right of inheritance.

As the head of the Western family, the duke who inherited the title has always enjoyed a privilege, that is, the right not to be judged or convicted by all levels of courts.No trial court can determine his guilt. If a verdict is required, the emperor must first personally order to seize his title, revoke it completely or hand it over to other members of the family to inherit it.This actually guaranteed the honor of the title, and guaranteed that no Duke of the West would be convicted by the trial court, otherwise it would be a great shame for a noble family.

At the same time, traditional aristocrats such as the Xishi family still retain another tradition. People who marry or marry into the family will be named "Xishi" with their partners, but at the same time, they will share weal and woe with their partners. And share all responsibility, honor and power.As the Duchess of St. Magnolia, she can naturally enjoy the same rights as the Duke of St. Magnolia.

Therefore, the Tulip Court did not have the right to judge the "Duchess".

For this reason, Xi Shiyan specially wore this official dress showing his status as the Duke of St. Magnolia to attend today.

Judging from the current situation, it is absolutely impossible for Emperor Yi Huaming to revoke Xi Shi'an's title because of Yin Luo's crimes, so when they go back, Xi Shi'an will give a reasonable statement. Even if the matter is over, no one can do anything to them.

But now the focus of most of the people present is no longer on whether to convict Yin Luo. They are completely shocked by the news of "the indifferent Duke of St. Magnolia has a wife? It seems that there is still a long time?" Yin Luo and Xi Shi'an wandered back and forth, as if they suspected that they were still living in a dream.

Only one of them had unusual mental activity.

Yi Huachi sat there in a daze, completely unable to recover.He knew that Brother Luo was a married man who couldn't get divorced, and he also knew eight lifetimes ago that Brother Luo had a vicious ex-wife who hadn't divorced yet.but!Will the goddess of marriage allow bigamy?Why did the Duke of Xi Shi say that he had already entered into a marriage contract with Luo Ge?Could it be that it was specially made up to save Luo Ge?Are they on good terms?

... If none of the above assumptions are true, what the Duke of St. Yulan and Luo Ge said is true... Doesn't that mean that the Duke of Xi Shi is the vicious ex-wife that Luo Ge has been talking about?

As a top student in the Research Department of the Royal Academy of Magic, His Highness the Second Prince's mind is quite good. Even if he reacts a little slower at certain times, his memory is not a problem at all——Yin Luo and how he described his ex-wife Those words echoed in his ears:

"I'm just a standard young man in a remote sea country. I like this kind of pure, proud and beautiful. My ex-wife used to be like this. Especially seeing him being so teased and still insisting on being duplicity and coldness, it really tickles people's hearts. , I just want to keep hooking him so hard that he can't stand it and take the initiative."

"Because being with your ex-wife is too exhausting. He's too obsessive."

"At that time, I feel that making such a powerful person can't help being emotional for me and completely losing control for me is also... a very pleasant and fulfilling thing."

"My ex-wife may be taking care of someone for the first time, she is very inexperienced, and she is very generous. But it may also be that he is too strong, and these things are ignored."

"..."

So... the beautiful, strong, arrogant, scumbag that Brother Luo said is stalking him, in his mind, it might be that Brother Luo is stalking him several times a night without squeezing people dry. The old goblin who let go, and the vicious ex-wife who played with Luo Ge's emotions and body at the same time are really, maybe, maybe, indeed, all mages are extremely admired, the most powerful grand magister in their empire, the indifferent and ruthless Duke of Saint Magnolia, Western Time Eucalyptus?

How could Luo Ge pretend to be so fake, and didn't have any extra reactions in the ex-wife class where he slept with him every day?Why did the academy rumor that Luo Ge liked the Duke of Xishi at the beginning?

That's not true... Brother Luo seems to have always had an unforgettable old relationship with his vicious ex-wife, and he couldn't help being tempted to go back when she hooked his finger... He remembered the one in class!Whenever his best friend and his vicious ex-wife are entangled and can't come to class, the Duke of West Time always has something to do...

Yi Huachi, who suddenly felt as if he had discovered the truth, burst into tears. He remembered the idea he had given Yinluo before, and in front of what the Duke of Xishi had said, he always felt, always felt, that he would die after this trial more miserable...

Lord Duke, I really don’t know that Luo Ge’s vicious ex-wife is you... If it is you, of course it cannot be inferred according to common sense. yes...

Yin Luo looked up at Xi Shi'an in astonishment, the shock in his eyes was no less than that of anyone present.

He never thought that Xi Shiyan would disclose the wrong relationship between the two of them that should have ended a long time ago in this way on this occasion.He touched the watch in his trouser pocket, and for a moment couldn't figure out what Xi Shiyan wanted to do.

Xi Shiyan also looked at him at this time.The pirate's silver-gray eyes were foggy, and seemed to be covered with an impalpable melancholy. He looked in his direction helplessly, with a bit of bewilderment in his eyes.

His heart throbbed, and he suddenly remembered that when he first met Yin Luo at sea, the pirate's eyes were firm and confident, always bright, clear and cheerful, clear and beautiful, not like the eyes a pirate should have.

It was those eyes that made him, who had a hard heart at that time, soften his heart time and time again, and compromise again and again, until finally, before he knew it, he had completely lost his heart.

He no longer cared about the reactions, gazes and noise around him, stood up straight, strode towards the direction of the trial seat, and directly used magic to damage the lock on the magic fence on the right side of the trial seat, and pulled him away. He went out and led Yin Luo towards the main entrance in the middle of the trial court under the watchful eyes of everyone.

Everyone looked at them, but no one would make a sound to stop them at this moment.

The guards in front of the door bowed respectfully, and the two heavy white stone doors opened and closed again after they left.

For thousands of years, Yin Luo was the first person to be interrogated to be taken out of the Tulip Trial Chamber under the watchful eyes of all onlookers and the jury.

Watching the duke take the criminal away, the presiding judge sighed silently, tapped the gavel, and announced, "Adjourn."

"The Duke of St. Magnolia is actually married", "The partner is the leader of the Silver Lightning Pirates", "The marriage was publicly announced in the trial court and the man was taken away"...Every piece of news is big news that can be called once in ten years. The nobles present could already foresee that in the next two years at least, they would no longer be short of talking points.

--------

Xi Shiyan led Yin Luo out of the courtroom. Along the way, the two kept holding hands.

Xi Shiyan didn't let him go until he came out, but instead hugged him into his arms and said softly, "I'm sorry, A Luo, I'm late."

"Sorry, I didn't expect this to happen."

He gently kissed Yin Luo's forehead, trying to comfort his lover.

After a while, Yin Luo hugged him back and whispered, "It's fine."

He tentatively kissed Xi Shiyan's cheek, jaw and Adam's apple lightly, bit and sucked lightly, and finally whispered: "Xi Shi, don't scare me like this, I will listen to you from now on .Shall we go home?"

Xi Shi'an's heart ached for a while, and then became cold again, but seeing Yin Luo's pale face under the sunlight, he couldn't say anything again.

It's all his fault.No matter what the reason is, it is his incompetence that he cannot protect his lover and let his partner fall into this situation.What's more, he was unintentionally an accomplice.

"I'm sorry, I won't do this again." He moved his throat and said again with difficulty, "Ah Luo, can you trust me?"

Yin Luo gave a soft "um", but still tugged at his sleeves to go home.

Xi Shiyan took him into the car, which was the one that took him to and from school every day.In the car, Yin Luo kept holding his hand and nestled in his arms, and fell asleep on his chest after a while.

After returning to the Duke's mansion, Xi Shi'an personally carried him down, carried him back to the bedroom, and gently scrubbed and changed his clothes.

Yin Luo had a wound on his shoulder.During the few days when he was imprisoned in Justice Prison, his energy was sealed. Although as a magic warrior, his physical fitness is much better than ordinary people, but the injury has not completely healed after eight days, and there is still a slightly A hideous scar.

Xi Shiyan's hand froze, his expression darkened, and he bent down and kissed the scar.He used healing magic, and after a few careful back and forth kisses, the wound disappeared.

The Duke of St. Magnolia scrubbed his wife completely, and turned to get a change of clothes. At this time, Yin Luo stretched out his hand in a daze from sleep, and grabbed his clothes to prevent him from leaving anyway.

Xi Shiyan turned around, looked at his lover who was much weaker than before and still felt uneasy in his dream, after thinking for a while, he simply took off his clothes, lifted the quilt to cover both of them, and put his arms around Yin Luo. eyes.

"Don't be afraid," he murmured, "Baby, I've always been here, and I won't leave again."

Feeling the familiar temperature, Yin Luo turned over and shrank into Xi Shi'an's arms, finally calmed down from the nightmare and stopped making trouble.
