Chapter 775 The Man Behind
The Wangcheng dungeon is by no means a good place. The cell in the prison is small and damp. There is only a wooden bed in the space of a few square meters. After smelling the smell for a long time, the sense of smell will gradually adapt and become numb.

Norden Regnome, the former deputy general of the "Frosthoof Legion", has been imprisoned here for several years. From the initial anxiety and mania, to gradually adapting to the gap in status, he has no disturbances in his heart, and accepts his own feelings calmly. destiny.

Today was an extremely small day in the 30-year prison sentence. Norden even forgot the time. He didn't know what time of day it was, so he lived in a daze as usual.

However, an uninvited guest who came suddenly today broke his original rhythm of life.

Perseus stood outside the cell door in casual clothes and a black robe, silently watching the disheveled Norden.

The Frosthoof Legion is one of the frontier regiments stationed in the north. They do not return to the interior all the year round, let alone enter the palace, so Norden has no idea what the legendary Perseus Van Dogorand looks like, nor does he know The person in front of him is the supreme king.

Norden looked Perseus up and down, and asked suspiciously, "Who are you?"

Perseus: "I am the bodyguard of His Royal Highness Andrew, the second prince. His Highness sent me a message, and I have something to ask you."

Upon hearing Andre's name, Norden's eyes seemed to be on fire, and he roared angrily: "Didn't I do what you said?! What else are you going to do?!"

Perseus narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "I heard resentment from your voice, you seem to have been wronged?"

Norden closed his eyes reluctantly, and stopped talking for some reason.

Perseus put his hand into his bosom, took out a badge, and said, "I lied to you just now, I am not from Andre, I am His Majesty's royal bodyguard. His Majesty was looking through the files of the Frosthoof Legion recently. Some doubts were found in it, and I was ordered to cross-examine you."

"The Imperial Guard?!" Norden opened his eyes suddenly, squeezed to the edge of the cell door, carefully looked at the badge, and muttered, "Has His Majesty the King paid attention to this matter?"

Perseus withdrew the badge and asked silently: "His Majesty the King is very interested in that man named Kevin Troy, please tell us the story between you two."

For some reason, Norden seemed a little cowering, and his voice dropped: "I dare not say. Otherwise, my parents and children will be in danger."

Perseus: "Your Majesty has an oral order, not to mention immediate execution, all immediate family members will be executed together."

Norden was so frightened that he was sweating. He struggled for a moment, gritted his teeth, closed his eyes and said, "Okay, but where do I start?"

Perseus: "Well, let me ask, and you answer. Did Kevin Troy really come from a poor family before? How did he suddenly jump two levels and become a centurion?"

Norden said in a low voice: "It is true that he was born as a civilian. When he first came, he was an unknown soldier, but he was very talented and brave. I only found out later that the reason why Kevin joined the army was because there were people behind him. Support and support."

Perseus: "Who is this person you're talking about?"

Norden hesitated for a moment, perhaps because he was afraid of the possible punishment, so he could only be honest: "It is the second prince Andre Kevin, who was excavated by Andre from the people, including the fact that he suddenly became a centurion. Andre greeted the general at the time."

Andre often discovers talents among the people, provides funding, and uses them for the country. This is something that many people know. Perseus was not surprised. He continued to ask: "Then what happened afterwards? You and Kevin's alternate chief general, you Why did you suddenly resell the controlled materials? The military salary can’t feed you enough?”

Norden gritted his teeth tightly, and said unwillingly: "That was an unjust case! I didn't resell any supplies at all! I'm already a lieutenant general, so is there any need to resell supplies? It was Kevin who deliberately cooperated with others to frame I!"

Perseus frowned and said, "You think those judges are fools? Without a complete confession and physical evidence, they dare to convict a royal nobleman? And you are from Ragnome. According to the law, you must The leader will be interrogated by Sting himself, if you were framed, can you just tell Sting to help you find out?"

Norden clenched his fists tightly, his voice trembling: "Master Sting did question me at the time, but I didn't complain, I just confessed."

This move made Perseus a little confused, and he asked suspiciously, "Why do you plead guilty?"

Norden said in a low voice: "I am not from the Ragnome family, but a retainer who later joined the family. I have no status in the family. My parents are only minor local nobles, and cannot enjoy the treatment of royal nobles."

"Kevin not only forged evidence to frame me, the people behind him also held my parents and children hostage. If I don't plead guilty, they will be killed. In order to protect my family, I can only give up everything I had."

"You just said that Kevin's 'behind the person' held your family hostage." Perseus asked profoundly, "Speaking more clearly, name the 'behind the person'."

Norden gritted his teeth tightly, knelt down on the ground, and said in a very low voice, "My lord, please go back and report to His Majesty the King, so that he will stop asking about this matter!"

"It doesn't matter if some things are not disclosed. Once revealed, the whole kingdom will be in turmoil! Please go back and tell your majesty that I just fell asleep and talked nonsense. 'The people behind', please stop asking."

Perseus: "Your Majesty ordered you to answer."

Norden froze in place, his eyes changed from empty to blank, and then he seemed to realize something. He stared blankly at Perseus in front of him, tears flowed out of his eyes unconsciously, and the majestic man couldn't stop sobbing stand up.

Norden knelt down to Perseus and said in a loud voice: "There are two people behind Kevin, one is the second prince Andre I mentioned just now, he colluded with the former commander of the Frosthoof Legion, fought against dissidents, eliminated dissidents, and specially made his own Mentors get promoted."

"There is another person who has the power to cover the sky with one hand, and has close contacts with officials from all over the world. He is also the person who kidnapped his family and framed me. This person is"

Norden repeatedly said the person's name: "The right hand of the current king, one of the leaders of the six kings, Lan Xian Heqi."

Perseus stood there silently, like an immobile statue, only the icy glint was hidden in his eyes.

In the end, Perseus didn't say anything, didn't ask any more questions, turned around and walked out of the dungeon.

Behind Perseus, Norden kowtowed to him again, and a choked voice came: "Your Majesty, my family members will be protected by Your Majesty!"
