Douluo's Golden Saint Cloth
Chapter 223 On the Day of Destruction, Angels Come (2)
"Squeak~~~"
The door of the trial court opened. Fifteen minutes had passed. The nobles outside filed in and sat down in the auditorium one by one. During the adjournment just now, there were only His Majesty Clyde, Merritt and others.
A few people stayed in the courtroom.
"Lin Lei, guess how I imposed the penalty?" Clyde smiled at Lin Lei.
"I can't guess." Lin Lei replied simply.
Clyde smiled mysteriously.
"stand up!"
Merritt stood up and said seriously. Suddenly, everyone in the court stood up. Merritt held her head high and said solemnly, "This court pronounces the verdict: Canter Debs, a member of the Debs family.
Si', blatantly carried out large-scale smuggling of jade ore, amounting to a huge amount.
Sentenced to death by hanging, it will be executed on October 11, 9999 in the Yulan calendar."
"The smuggling of jade ore was worth nearly 40 million gold coins, so the Debs family was sentenced to double the fine, which was 80 million gold coins.
Bernard Debs, released in court, the sentence has been pronounced."
As soon as Merritt said this, Bernard, Nimitz, Kallan and other members of the Debs family breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time they felt helpless in their hearts.
Eighty million gold coins!
What a terrifying number!
The property of the entire Debs family is only about 100 million gold coins, including all fixed assets.
And this time, if you have to pay a huge fine, you will definitely have to sell many fixed assets.
Such a large-scale sale will definitely encounter price pressure from the other party.
The fixed assets total nearly 80 million gold coins, but the possibility of being able to sell them for 80 million gold coins in the end is too low.
"Lin Lei, how are you?" Clyde looked at Lin Lei.
Lin Lei smiled and nodded: "I admire you, I admire you."
The amount of Clyde's fine was set very accurately because the Debs family's fixed assets were only about 80 million gold coins.
If Clyde is really sentenced to "genocide", then Clyde will not be able to get even a single gold coin from the Debs family's liquidity.
And if the fine is too high, the Debs family may not be willing to pay the fine even if their family members die.
These 80 million gold coins are not too much or too little, just right.
"Father." Kalan and others immediately came to help Bernard up.
Bernard looked at his third brother, Canter Debs. Canter's face was dim at the moment and he just nodded to Bernard.
Ever since the smuggling incident was exposed, Kanter knew that he would definitely die.
And now that he died for the family, the family will probably treat his son and wife well in the future.
Bernard also nodded to Kant.
The two brothers understood each other's thoughts just by looking at each other.
"Let's go back," Bernard sighed.
After this incident, the Debs family's vitality was severely damaged, and it was good to have only one remaining financial strength.
Since then... the Debs family has declined from the level of the top wealthy families in the Finlay Kingdom, and can only be regarded as a relatively wealthy family.
But no matter how you say it, this matter has been revealed, and the green hills are left, so you don't have to worry about running out of firewood.
Seeing the struggles of these people, Bai Ge suddenly began to understand the mentality of Ashmita, Shaka and even the gods.
The dirty side of human beings is really disgusting!
In a blink of an eye, it’s already November and the weather is getting colder.
However, Lin Lei and Clyde were still wearing only single clothes, and they were not afraid of the cold at all.
Today, Lin Lei has already understood the realm of the Holy Realm. The only difference is the accumulation of fighting spirit.
Although Clyde was promoted to the ninth level by the secret method and could not be promoted to the holy realm, his strength at the ninth level was also real.
A little chill is okay.
"Your Majesty, why are you hosting Merritt today?"
Linley and Clyde chatted freely.
When Clyde heard what Lin Lei said, a meaningful smile appeared on his face. He glanced at the maids and waiters next to him, and the maids and waiters immediately backed away obediently one by one.
Clyde then whispered in a low voice: "Lin Lei, do you know that Merritt recently married his thirteenth wife?"
"Thirteenth?" Lin Lei was startled.
He did not know that the serious right minister in the court could be so sentimental.
"His new wife is very charming." Clyde showed Lin Lei a smile that all men would understand.
Seeing Clyde's expression, Lin Lei couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"Haha..." Clyde patted Lin Lei on the shoulder, "Lin Lei, after the New Year, you will be eighteen years old, right?
Don't tell me that you haven't tasted a woman yet."
Lin Lei couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Clyde sighed: "That kid Merritt was able to find such a charming fairy. It's really enviable.
However, now that I have taken a fancy to it, that charming little fairy is mine.
Merritt didn't even dare to move."
Clyde also openly told Lin Lei about this kind of thing.
"Your Majesty, is this, is this good?" Lin Lei was very surprised.
After all, she is the wife of the right prime minister. Following Clyde's wishes, she actually snatched her away.
"What's wrong? Merritt's current status was not achieved through women.
He should know his position very well.
But Linley, it seems like you didn’t go to the banquet where Merritt was getting married that day.” Clyde said doubtfully.
Under the guidance of Bai Ge, Lin Lei is busy practicing hard to accumulate fighting spirit!
How can I have time to attend any banquet?
"Lin Lei, how about you meet Merritt's new wife, Windsor, during lunch today.
If you like it, I wouldn't mind giving it to you.
I can guarantee that no matter how cowardly Merritt is, she will not dare to touch Windsor." Clyde said confidently.
Clyde has absolute prestige in the Kingdom of Finlay.
Merritt got married that day, but Clyde fell in love with Windsor.
That night, Clyde had Windsor taken to a mansion outside, and Clyde enjoyed the night.
Merritt, on the other hand, didn't dare to have any temper.
Moreover, from that day on, Merritt did not dare to touch Windsor.
Some of the ministers of the Kingdom of Finlay have reached official positions by relying on their own abilities, and they are truly capable ministers.
However, some ministers have climbed up through the means of some shady people, and those ministers are just mediocre ministers.
Lin Lei was also secretly surprised by Clyde's domineering attitude.
However, Clyde, known as the 'Golden Lion', has a lion-like domineering attitude. His domineering behavior is also conceivable.
"Your Majesty, Duke and Duchess Merritt have arrived." A palace attendant ran over and said respectfully.
"Haha, Linley, let's go." Clyde stood up immediately.
Merritt and Lady Windsor were already waiting at the entrance of the courtyard.
Linley couldn't help but look at Lady Windsor, who had attracted Clyde's attention.
Lady Windsor has an extremely graceful figure. Although she wears tight clothes, her tight pants completely outline the curves of her graceful long legs. Her waist is slightly tight, but it highlights her bulging breasts.
That long dark red hair is so sexy.
Especially this Lady of Windsor, her eyes seem to be able to enchant people.
Whenever I look at her, I can't help but have wild thoughts.
"Your Majesty, Lord Linley." Along with Merritt, the soft voice of the Windsor woman sounded.
"What a fairy." Lin Lei secretly thought in his heart.
Clyde glanced at Lin Lei proudly and whispered in Lin Lei's ear: "How are you? Are you feeling a little impulsive?"
"Your Majesty, let's go in for lunch." Lin Lei said in a deep voice.
"Haha..." Clyde laughed.
That 'Windsor' couldn't help but look at Lin Lei a few more times with her seductive eyes, and seemed to be very interested in Lin Lei. If Merritt and Clyde hadn't been present, I'm afraid Windsor would have directly entangled Lin Lei.
"Wow, what a beautiful woman." Beibei, who had been on Lin Lei's shoulder, suddenly widened her eyes.
"call out."
Beibei actually jumped directly to Windsor's... chest.
"It's so big." Beibei's voice sounded in Linley's mind.
Lin Lei was stunned.
"What a cute mouse." Windsor hugged Beibei excitedly, and Beibei even used her little head to cup the plump part with great enjoyment.
The corners of Bai Ge and Qian Renxue's mouths twitched when they saw them.
After so long, Lin Lei also "deliberately" revealed to Clyde the strength of Bai Ge and Qian Renxue's sanctuary.
Clyde, who has always been ambitious and wanted to get rid of his identity as a puppet of the Holy See, naturally attracted Bai Ge and the others.
Sister Xueer's temple is already being arranged intensively.
In Bai Ge's impression, Beibei has always been an eccentric person, but he has no impression that Beibei is actually a little pervert!
Moreover, Beibei is also very well-behaved in front of Hathaway.
Fortunately, because Beibei's body is a mouse, Sister Xue'er, Little Medical Fairy, Ziezi, and Qinglin have never hugged Beibei. They only stroked Beibei occasionally, or fed various roast ducks, roast ducks, etc.
Especially Sister Xue'er, Beibei's attribute is darkness, but Sister Xue'er is light, so the two usually keep a distance.
Lin Lei also looked embarrassed: "This Beibei must have learned bad things from the boss at Yale."
…
Entering December, the temperature in Fenlai City dropped suddenly, and the first snow of this winter also fell. The entire Fenlai City was a silvery white, and the cold air made many nobles try to hide at home, too lazy to go out.
Still wearing a loose robe, Lin Lei walked on the streets after the snow, protected by two guards.
"Creak, creak, creak~~" The sound of stepping on the snow made a sound.
Fenlai City is particularly enchanting after the snow. There are ice ridges on the gates of the noble mansions on both sides of the green leaf road. The rays of the rising sun are refracted on the ice ridges, making the ice ridges even more dazzling.
The branches of a row of towering pine trees in front of the mansion are all white and very beautiful.
The scenery is beautiful.
"Boss, look, most of the mansions next to it have been renovated, and there are many decorative items." Beibei's voice sounded in Lin Lei's mind.
Linley was walking on the road, he was so distracted that he naturally didn't notice. After Beibei said this, Linley also noticed that the mansions on both sides of Green Leaf Road were different from the past.
"This is..." Linley was a little confused.
"Hang it up, yes, move it to the left." Servants from a nearby mansion were hanging some decorations in front of the mansion door, and there were other people directing them.
"That's the magnolia flower!" Lin Lei noticed that the pattern of the decoration hanging in front of the mansion was exactly the pattern of the magnolia flower.
It was only then that Linley suddenly realized this.
"By the way, it's already December now, and the Magnolia Festival will be in a few days.
And it’s the Ten Thousand Years Magnolia Festival!” Lin Lei also knew how important this festival was.
January 1, year 10,000 of the Magnolia Calendar, is probably the noisiest day in the Magnolia Continent.
No wonder every noble family's mansion is renovated and decorated.
"Crack!"
One step of the ladder broke under the feet of a servant who was hanging ornaments. The servant's foot missed and he fell down.
I thought I would suffer a bloody head injury, but I was saved by Bai Ge's wave.
This little incident was described in the original book "Pan Long", but when Bai Ge saw this scene with his own eyes, he was inexplicably shocked.
The fate in the dark may have been predestined for these mortals.
Not just these little people, but so what if it’s the Holy Land?
In the original work, Rutherford, one of the limits of the five sacred areas, is the tomb of the dead gods, with no bones left.
The Wushen Sect was completely destroyed, leaving only Fa En.
Even Linley's brother-in-law Dixie and good brother George died tragically on the spot...
If it is not related to the protagonist, resurrection? It’s a dream!
And this is fate.
Aloof, selfless and ruthless!
…
January 1, year 10,000 of the Magnolia Calendar.
In the sky above the Temple of Light, since this morning, there have been various fantastic and beautiful scenes formed by magic.
The Holy Capital of Fenlai City became a sea of joy on this day. People from all over the world gathered in the vast square in front of the Temple of Light. Everyone was cheering for the Ten Thousand Years Magnolia Festival. The Temple of Light also held various ceremonies.
Lively activities.
The Guangming Temple Square is densely packed with people, it can be called a sea of people.
Greenleaf Road, Finlay City, Debs family mansion.
At noon, one after another nobles and rich people stepped into the door of the Debs family. Although after the case of smuggling jade ore, the Debs family has declined from the top family in the Kingdom of Finlay, but even with the decline, the Debs family has declined.
The family is still considered a somewhat influential family. It can at least rank among the top twenty in the Kingdom of Finlay.
"My Lord Count Juno has arrived——"
"Baroness Prey said——"
…
One by one, nobles, ladies, and ladies have entered the Debs family. The patriarch of the Debs family, Bernard, warmly welcomed the nobles one after another. Now the power of the Debs family has shrunk sharply.
, but at least it still has a firm foothold in the Kingdom of Finlay.
"The Duke of Bernard has arrived——"
Upon hearing that it was Duke Bernard, many nobles looked towards the gate, and even Bernard immediately greeted him.
Nowadays, at the wedding of the Debs family, the person with the highest status is probably the Duke of Bernard.
For the last engagement, His Majesty Clyde of the Kingdom of Finlay came. But for this wedding, His Majesty the King did not come.
Everyone knows the reason.
"Your Majesty, your arrival is an honor for our entire Debs family." Bernard said humbly.
Duke Bernard nodded.
Right Chancellor Merritt was transferred from Right Chancellor by His Majesty Clyde and transferred to Finance Minister. This was regarded as taking away Windsor's compensation and promoted another minister to serve as Right Chancellor.
But in terms of influence, it still cannot compare with Merritt, who has been in the right-hand position for decades.
In addition, the former Finance Minister ‘Duke Paterson’ has died, and now the most powerful minister in the entire Kingdom of Finlay is probably the Left Chancellor ‘Duke Bernard’.
"Karan, come and meet Duke Bernard." Bernard greeted immediately.
