The duke's face was full of disbelief.
Neil felt extremely heavy in his heart, and anger rose from the bottom of his heart step by step, and he stood up without hesitation.
"My lord duke, I am willing to swear by my reputation. If you think this is not enough, I can even swear by my favorite daughter."
The old man said excitedly: "Master DeWitt is a complete bastard with evil thoughts, bad morals, his soul has fallen into the ground, and at this moment he can eat people like a devil, you can no longer keep him by your side .”
The duke was unmoved.
Tears slowly flowed from the eyes of the weather-beaten old man, and he sighed: "I beg you, drive out the unbelievers, how can you keep a ruthless poisonous snake in the garden."
The Duke's expression moved slightly, he put down his wine glass, his youthful face was extremely dignified and solemn.
"I appreciate your thoughtfulness," he said softly, "but I can't drive DeWitt away."
Neil clenched his right hand tightly, not understanding why, his question almost blurted out.
But the young Duke spoke, leaning back against the tall armchair, his haughty face hidden in the dark shadows, he looked extraordinarily young and haggard.
"Neil, I believe that no one is perfect, and even the gods have flaws. The father god Assas betrayed his marriage with the goddess and was expelled from the goddess snow mountain. From then on, as long as there is a temple of the goddess, planting Birch trees, but they still have their followers."
"In your eyes, DeWitt is a heinous bastard, but in my heart, he is always a kind person. When I couldn't leave the territory, it was DeWitt who accompanied my grandma to Themis to treat her lung disease. , spent six difficult months, he took good care of grandma, I am grateful to him, without DeWitt, grandma would not be able to last so long anyway."
The Duke said: "I believe that ambition can be restrained, just like tying cattle and sheep to stakes. If the sheep are not careful and the sheep gnaw the vegetable field, then it is the shepherd who should be blamed."
Neil was speechless, he looked at the young and stubborn Duke, and sighed.
"My lord, the flock of sheep is docile and foolish, but Master Dewitt is a poisonous snake. I did not hide the news of your return. It is estimated that it will spread to Red Pine Castle soon. You are a generous and benevolent gentleman, but the gods are here In the world, poisonous snakes are ferocious, so how can they deliberately avoid noble people?"
"Neil, please don't say any more." The Duke left the chair: "This journey has made me very tired, and I hope to have a good rest."
Neil gave in with a sigh: "Julie has the room ready for you."
Neil led the Duke out of the dining room, the living room, up the stairs, and to the bedroom. The Duke looked at the quiet, tidy, spacious and gorgeous bedroom, and murmured, "I almost forgot what it's like to sleep on the bed."
He happily walked in the door, threw himself on the bed, and cheered.
Neil stared blankly at the Duke's movements, feeling a sense of disobedience in his heart, but the Duke quickly reacted, sat up from the bed, patted the folds of the quilt, and sternly said, "Go out, I I want to rest."
"I have arranged a personal servant for you."
"No need to wait, I want to sleep well."
Neil was slightly surprised, and finally nodded and turned around. The Duke stopped him: "Neil, my servant is injured and needs a priest."
"Yes, my lord."
"Also, it's best to ask him what his needs are. He came from the countryside and doesn't know much about these things. Be sure to entertain him well."
"Yes, my lord."
Just as Neil was about to close the door, the Duke jumped up from the bed and said, "Look at him, don't let him get away."
After closing the door, Neil thought deeply. He walked down the stairs with a straight face. Without much effort, he found the young man who was feasting in the side hall. Add pea soup to his bowl.
He was a healthy and happy young man with a smile on his face and a handsome appearance. Even though his clothes were full of oil, he looked as if he was attending a harvest banquet in a certain farm, which made people feel happy.
The little maid smiled from ear to ear, and praised Andy's good appetite.
"Slow down, mister, there are plenty of delicious food, don't bother to drink soup, try wine, this is the most precious product in the farm."
"cough."
"Mr. Neil." The little maid said in surprise.
The boy who was gnawing on the leg of lamb raised his head abruptly and wiped the oil on his face indiscriminately. Neil frowned and looked at him with a straight face: "Is that Andy? Do you mind if I have a word with you? "
The young man said awkwardly: "I don't mind, of course, I mean you can sit wherever you want."
The little maid exited the room tactfully, leaving only Neil and Andy in the side hall.
Neil had been a tax collector for the Phelps family for half his life, and he couldn't rub the sand in his eyes, and he was used to a superior tone.
"civilian?"
"Yes."
"You have a southern accent."
"My home is in a small town in the south."
"How did you come here?"
"Ha, because I can't live the old days, my lord."
"I wonder how you met the Duke?"
The young man was sitting upright, his beautiful black eyes blinked: "He was sold by a humanoid to the robber's den, and locked up with me."
Neil frowned deeply: "And then?"
"We escaped together."
Neil interrogated everything in detail, but the young man was extremely cunning. He had a vigilance like a fox in him. He was able to adapt to the situation and open his mouth. Faced with the pressure from Neil, he was still neither humble nor humble, and avoided sharp topics with a smile on his face.
Neil didn't ask anything, he couldn't help feeling a little annoyed, and he didn't go around with Andy, and left angrily.
Andy wiped the oil from his hands, picked up the knife and fork, and was a little absent-minded, poking the beans in the bowl.
Everything here is against him, but he can't go.
"What about 1 gold coins, think about my parents, think about Anne, a lot of money, whatever."
Andy said a few simple prayers, and brought up the bean soup with a normal expression. The little maid slipped in quietly after Neil left, and while changing Andy's hot pumpkin pie, she said excitedly: "Mr. , you can eat fast, there will be a vigorous trial later."
"Judgment? It's rare these days," Andy said.
The little maid nodded hastily: "No, usually people are locked up in prison and starved to death, but this time, they are really going to be beheaded. I heard that this prisoner is a well-known villain who tried to kidnap the noble lady."
"Really? What's his name."
The little maid patted her chest, as if she felt some kind of fear: "That man's name is too evil, I heard that anyone who speaks his name will suffer bad luck, my God, but I must tell you, Ying Gemma, his name is Ingmar Walthau."
"Who?!" Andy's face suddenly changed, and he stood up from the stool in a hurry: "Ingmar Walso? You mean Ingmar Walso?"
"Yes, it's him. What's wrong with you? You look so ugly." The maid was taken aback.
Andy swallowed hard, he lowered his head, and when he raised his head again, his tone had returned to calm, but the emotional ups and downs in those black eyes were unusual.
"Ingmar Walthau, have you seen him? Good girl, tell me what you know."
"Oh no, but someone saw him in the dungeon and he was a freak."
"abnormal?"
"Yes! Mother said he was a man, but he liked to wear women's clothes."
Andy was almost unable to stand, he was startled and puzzled, he only knew one Ingmar Walthau, and only one man who liked to wear women's clothes, the animal trainer of the juggling troupe, and Anne's good friend.
Ingmar liked to dress in women's clothes, which was commonplace in a vaudeville troupe, but outside, he would be sent to the temple as a madman.
Andy worried that something happened to Anne too.
His brows were clouded, and he said eagerly: "Do you know why he was arrested? Can you tell me everything you know?"
The little maid looked at Andy timidly: "I don't know, but I heard that he had been hiding in the juggling troupe before, and after being caught by the Red Knights, the head of the juggling troupe couldn't pay the huge fine and ran away. It was agreed to perform in our manor, that's all I know."
Andy thanked the little maid, and before he had time to say a few more words, he couldn't help walking towards the tax official's mansion.
The little nobleman was lying on the big soft bed, unable to fall asleep for a long time. He sighed and rubbed the pillow, worrying about DeWitt's matter, his mood was very complicated, and he couldn't think of a suitable solution for a long time.
The footman knocked on his door, which was very rude, not knowing that he was still asleep.
"grown ups."
Austin opened the door with a very displeased expression: "What's the matter?"
The male servant said respectfully: "My lord, the servant Andy you brought here hopes to visit a death row prisoner imprisoned in the manor."
Austin frowned strangely and said, "Let him watch."
The manservant said: "My lord, everything in the manor will be reported to Mr. Tax Officer first, so Mr. Andy is going to seek Mr. Neil's permission."
Austin already guessed what was going on: "Tell Neil, I agree."
The servant lowered his head: "My lord, Mr. Neil first refused his request, and then Mr. Andy climbed up your window and was caught by the guards in the name of assassination. Mr. Neil thinks that you may need to know about it. "
Austin was dumbfounded, he couldn't believe that Andy was so bold, he gritted his teeth and said with a headache.
"Take me to see him."
The male servant turned sideways to lead the way: "Yes, my lord."
Austin walked out of the living room and saw Andy in the yard with grape arbors. He was pinned down by two armored guards, with a steel sword on his neck. There was a lot of sweat on the boy's forehead. Seeing him, he was originally high-spirited The head slowly lowered.
"Lord Duke."
"Let him go." Austin waved his hand. The guard looked at each other and slowly let go.
Andy quickly moved his arms a few times. Austin approached him with a serious face, squatted beside him, and gritted his teeth in a voice that only two people could hear: "You did it on purpose! I told you to obey the rules."
Andy looked around, and whispered to Austin, "I have something urgent, I have to."

The sand sculpture author's writing progress is relatively slow, I am trying to adjust it as much as possible, if the little angels are tired and have opinions, you can feel free to raise them!I will seriously refer to it!
