Although Terrence made a big commotion in the palace, there was no news of this matter afterward, and it should be that Duke Pacino deliberately suppressed it.

"According to his vengeful character, he is really not good. I thought he was going to do a good round of manhunt." It has been two days since the incident in the palace. I stayed in the hotel without going out, and I didn't have any contact with people I shouldn't have contact with.

Evan was sitting in the corner of the tavern at this time, waiting for the scattered scouts to inquire about the news, so he said to Terrence in a leisurely manner.

"What kind of adjective is that..." Terrence swallowed a sip of cheap wine, "That person is not stupid enough to be self-willed. Announcing to the public that someone has broken into the palace under the high-pressure policy, this is a shame for him. It's a dull thing. It's better to say that he is waiting for an opportunity to move when he is so quiet."

The two were talking quietly, and from a distance, they saw Lancer walking through the crowd with a short boy.

"The kid just went to the hotel and said he wanted to see you, Mr. Hyman." Lancer pushed the boy behind him to the table and said to Terrence.

"No, it's not me." The boy said awkwardly while clutching the patched hat in his hand. He looked at Terrence whose face was covered by the hat, and reached out his hand in fear to take out a note. "A gentleman asked me to pass it on to you."

Evan, who sat closer, took the note instead of Terrence, and put it in front of Terrence after scanning the content first: "Look."

Terrence's eyes fell on the letter "k" inscribed on the note, and he signaled Lancer to tip the boy with a gold coin and send him out.

"Did something happen?" Terrence murmured and threw the note into the unfinished wine, the red wine gradually soaked the thin white paper...

As if in response to his question, at noon, the palace attendant posted a letter from Duke Pacino on the bulletin board in the square.The servant announced loudly in front of the onlookers that Angus Ed's award ceremony will be held in the Palace Square three days later.

"Ed... didn't even inherit his surname. It's a farce." After learning the news, Terrence leaned against the window with his arms folded, and let out a sneer from the corner of his mouth. "Who is Pacino shaming/humiliating?"

Angus, who was far away in the Duke's mansion, smashed the tea set on the table.

"Please pay attention to your manners, Master Angus." Adam stood aside and said. He nodded to the maid beside him, signaling her to clean up the debris.

"Shut up!" Angus glared at the expressionless butler with a sullen face. "You look down on me too, don't you?! You all look down on me!"

With a low growl, he kicked the maid who was kneeling on the ground picking up the debris and fell to the ground.

"Ah!" The girl's arm was pressed against the broken porcelain, blood trickled out, and the pain made her scream.

Seeing this scene, Adam frowned.

Angus approached him with a happy sneer, and said in a low voice: "Do you hate me? Do you despise me? It's a pity that my dear Terrence brother is dead. What can you do? Don't you still want to serve me? Just Entertain me with this expression, please me like a wolf dog, as the head of the family, I can still leave you a bite to eat."

After he finished speaking, he strode away with a sullen face.

--hateful!hateful!hateful!

Angus walked on the street, roaring in his heart.When the news of Terrence's murder came back to the imperial capital, he still felt a little joy in his heart, how could he not be happy to be able to get rid of that "brother" who suppressed him everywhere.But he soon realized that Terrence's death was not a good thing for him, at least not now.He has no power and power, and after Terrence's fall, he will be exposed to the minions of those greedy wolves, and he can only be manipulated and slaughtered by others.

This is all because I don't have enough power!

——Am I going to live a life where I can’t do whatever I want?

Angus clenched his lower lip until the smell of blood spread in his mouth——I will never compromise like this!

"Oh, isn't this the Earl? I didn't expect to meet him on the street. This must be the fate of the God of Light."

Just as Angus was restless like a wandering beast, an old and gentle voice sounded above his head.

Angus raised his head and saw a familiar man: "Bishop Sidney... Please don't talk nonsense, I haven't been decorated yet, and now I can only be regarded as a commoner."

"Humility is a virtue, but proper ambition can make people progress. Mr. Angus, you still lack the spirit of a fearless warrior." Bishop Sidney showed a holy smile when spreading the gospel, "What you have in you is enough Anything you wish for - as long as you want."

Adam who stayed in the living room helped the injured maid, took out the handkerchief in his pocket and bandaged her wound.The maid was sobbing all the time. She pressed her arm and said intermittently between crying: "Mr. Butler, the young master will never come back again, right?"

Adam's knotted hand stopped suddenly, and it took a few seconds before he continued to move: "Ah, it's true."

He asked the maid to go back to the room to rest and tidy up the messy living room by himself. Adam couldn't help but feel sad when he thought of watching the young master who had grown up take the black tea he made on the sofa.He wiped his face carelessly, got up and left the living room.

After closing the door, he noticed that Lu Sien and Yulia had already stood behind him at some point.

"Adam..." Yulia pulled Lu Sien's sleeve and called the red-haired butler by his name. "Lu Sien and I are planning to leave here."

"Ulea..." Adam leaned down and touched the short boy's head.

"I don't want to stay here anymore... As long as I think of Terrence, I feel pain." Uriah wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand, but more tears still fell from her eyes. "Angus is good and bad, he always bullies me. From now on, Terrence will never touch my head, nor will he talk to me gently, I miss him so much..."

Uriah talked to Adam upside down, and finally burst into tears uncontrollably.Lu Sien pressed Yulia to his chest, letting the former's tears soak his clothes.

Adam sighed, and said to Lu Sien: "It's fine for you to leave, but Master Angus probably won't be able to accommodate you. Please take good care of Uriah, the young master used to love/love him the most."

Lu Sien nodded silently, and after hesitating for a while, he asked, "What about you? Why don't you come with us?"

Adam smiled and shook his head: "I have to guard this house for the young master. If I can't do my best, how can I see him in the future."

The red-haired butler packed the luggage for the two and sent them off himself.He didn't turn his head until there was only a long uninhabited road left in his field of vision——

"Adam, I'm back."

A familiar voice came from behind him, and Adam suddenly looked back, but there was no one in sight.He lowered his eyes and gently closed the carved iron door.

Half a city away from Aldret's mansion, two guests were welcomed in front of a cafe - a tall silver-haired warrior and a mage wearing a black cloak.

"Lancer was quite reluctant before I came out, and the guilt is still haunting my chest." Evan jokingly said as he walked into the coffee shop with Terrence.

"There's nothing to do about it. The civilian area is okay. If you come here, you will always worry about his appearance being recognized." Terrence spread his hands, "His appearance is very good in the circle of noble ladies. Attracting attention, if you come together—two sneaky people will be suspected, right?"

The author has something to say:

As he spoke, he stopped and pushed open the door of the box in front of him.

"I kept you waiting, Your Excellency the Earl." After Evan closed the door, Terrence pulled down his hood and greeted the people in the box.

"Where, I just arrived not long ago." Earl Cantor stood up and opened the seat for Terrence.

It was the Minister of Finance who had helped him infiltrate the palace the previous day who had asked a strange civilian boy to deliver a note to Terrence.

"You don't hesitate to take the risk to find me, because you have something urgent to do?" Terrence said straight to the point after sitting down.

Earl Cantor said: "You must have heard the news that Angus Ed is about to be a Lord?"

"Pacino is so fanatical, people who don't know are either blind or deaf." Terrence shrugged.

"I don't know what you think about this?"

"I don't know what to say, I don't care about the face of the royal family, I have dementia, there is no cure... If I want to describe him, any derogatory term can be used."

"You know that's not what I'm asking..." Earl Cantor smiled wryly, "Let me just say it straight, the reason why Duke Pacino honored your brother in such a high-profile way is because he wanted to spend the last two days Lead out the 'bandits' who entered the palace."

Terrence took a sip of coffee and raised his chin to signal Kantel to continue.

"I've taken care of everything. Duke Pacino still doesn't know who the person who sneaked into the palace is. But he at least knows one thing - that person has already contacted His Majesty. No matter what the other party got from His Majesty , if he wants to make his crimes public, he must choose an occasion with enough momentum. It is based on this consideration that Pacino himself prepared the stage for his opponent in advance, which is the Palace Square. He deployed there There are many hidden threads, just waiting for the enemy to throw themselves into the net, if you really plan to do something, I hope you must reconsider."

Terrence put down the cup in his hand, turned to Evan and said, "So I said that guy is waiting for an opportunity-you don't have to worry, Your Excellency the Earl." Terrence turned his gaze back to Kantel, "He I have his schemes, and I have mine. Before I have enough power, I will never confront him head-on. As for two days later, the place where the good show will be staged will not be the Palace Square."
