Lord: I have a skill talent tree
Chapter 68: Escape
Many people may think that Ethan's way of speaking is unnecessary in order to get some information, but Ethan doesn't think so.
Imagine if you are on the street and ask a passerby for personal information, do you think he will tell you?
Not only will he not tell you, he may even beat you up.
Asking about other people's personal information for no reason is either a traitor or a thief. If not you, who else should I beat?
But fortunately, Ethan has laid the groundwork, and it's time to start getting the information he wants.
"First of all, you need to know who is harming you? I think I should at least know your position and who your boss is first!"
Andy said without thinking: "I belong to the Duke's Third Knights, which is mainly responsible for logistics.
And the one who ordered us to deal with the aftermath this time is the deputy commander of the Knights, Lord Bordeaux."
"Deputy commander?" Ethan was puzzled. Why would a deputy commander get involved in this matter?
Could it be that he was paid?
"That Bordeaux is not a local!" Ethan guessed that Bordeaux was from outside, otherwise, what's the point of asking for money without supplies?
Only if his family is from outside can his motive be explained, so he tried to ask.
Andy didn't understand why Ethan asked for a while: "Do you want to ask if Lord Bordeaux is from the North?"
"Yes!" Ethan nodded: "This is very important, I hope you can tell the truth."
Andy thought about it carefully, and seemed to guess the purpose of Ethan's question, and shook his head and said: "I think you may guess that Lord Bordeaux accepted money to cover up for the hostile forces.
But I regret to tell you that this is impossible.
Those who can be selected into the Duke's private knights are definitely families who have lived in the North for a long time and served the Duke.
And Lord Bordeaux was born and raised in the North. , he and his family are excellent representatives of the people of the North.
And he can become the deputy leader not only because of his strong strength, but also because of his contribution to the North.
He and his family have lost countless people in the battle for the North over the years.
And he once rushed on a cold night to deliver supplies to the destination, which caused his feet to be frozen and he is a little lame when he walks now.
It can be said that he and his family have dedicated their lives to the North.
If someone wants to harm the supply of materials in the North, he will probably be the first to disagree. "
Hearing this, Ethan became even more confused.
From Andy's name for Bordeaux, it can be seen that he respects Bordeaux very much.
Could it be that at this time, he still wants to protect Bordeaux?
Of course, this Bordeaux may just be following orders, and there are higher-level people involved?
Ethan didn't know whether what Andy said was true or false, so he asked:
"From what you said, your deputy leader was also kept in the dark, and someone instructed him to do this. Am I right?"
When Andy heard this, his face changed drastically, and he stammered and couldn't speak.
"From your appearance, I guessed right, and you seem to know who instructed you. Do you mind telling me?" Ethan asked again.
Andy's face became even uglier, his eyes kept dodging, his head slightly lowered, and he remained silent.
Ethan didn't urge him. If the other party was willing to talk, he would naturally talk. If he didn't want to, forcing him would be useless.
So he leaned back in his chair, drank coffee leisurely, and turned his head to look at the snow scene outside the window, not to put pressure on Andy.
Andy saw that Ethan didn't ask, and looked like he had nothing to do with it. His heart jumped, and he felt that if he didn't say it, the other party would give up helping.
So he gritted his teeth and said, "It might be Master Nolan who ordered it, because he promoted the deputy leader himself.
If anyone can privately direct the deputy leader to do things, it can only be him."
"Nolan? Master?" This was the third time Ethan heard this name, and he immediately became alert: "Who is this Nolan?"
"You don't know Master Nolan?" Andy was very surprised. Not to mention in the North, even looking at the Aslan Empire, he is also well-known, but some people have never heard of him.
Ethan had indeed not heard of it, so he shook his head: "I really don't know, please tell me, who is he? Why do you call him a young master?"
"He is the grandson of the Duke. Or..." Andy paused here, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I just heard that he is actually the Duke's illegitimate son."
Ethan was a little confused after hearing this: "So, is he the Duke's grandson? Or the Duke's illegitimate son? Others don't know about this, but people in your Knights can't be clear about it?"
Andy's expression suddenly became a little weird, and he smiled awkwardly: "I can only tell you that his mother is the Duke's second daughter-in-law, but the Duke's second son died of illness many years ago.
One year after the second son died of illness, Young Master Nolan was born...
I think you should understand what I mean!"
Ethan also smiled awkwardly after hearing this. Isn't this "stealing"!
Ethan has seen how chaotic the aristocratic circle is, so there is nothing to be surprised about.
However, since it was about the Duke, and it was a private matter, Ethan did not ask further questions, but changed the subject:
"So, you think that Mr. Nolan is destroying the supply of materials in the North, what is his purpose?"
"This is just my guess, I have no evidence, so I don't know what the purpose is?" Andy said worriedly: "I have told you everything I can tell you.
Knight Ethan, should you also help me solve the problem?"
Ethan smiled: "Of course! But you have to understand that I have reported the matter. If the Duke wants to punish you, I am powerless to stop it. After all, this is your internal matter!"
When Andy heard this, he turned from joy to anger, thinking: I came back to be humiliated, and told the truth, but in return the other party said that he was powerless.
Immediately, Andy stood up and glared at Ethan: "You are playing tricks on me. From the beginning to the end, you just wanted to get information, and you didn't mean to help me?"
Ethan also stood up, smiled and walked to Andy, patted his shoulder, and motioned him to sit down.
At the same time, he said: "Knight Andy, please don't worry. I just said that I can't stop the Duke from punishing you, but I didn't say I won't help you, right?"
When Andy heard this, his expression eased a lot: "Then Knight Ethan, what are you going to do to get me off the hook?"
Ethan shook his head: "When you guys came, you made a mess here, I was very angry.
The key is that the other guys just ran away like that.
I am a vengeful person, so no matter what, I will make you pay the price.
Of course, you have come back to sort it out and provided me with information, so I will naturally protect you."
"So, what are you going to do?" Andy added impatiently.
Looking at Andy's anxious look, Ethan sneered in his heart. If he had known this earlier, why did he do it in the first place.
But since he promised to protect the other party, he naturally had to do what he said.
So he turned around and sat back at his desk, picked up the quill on the table, and started writing.
