The old man was in a hurry to get his money.

Gates was being scolded at this time.

"When did you go out to rob? You also robbed the sons of the Minister of Finance and the First General, and turned the outer city upside down. This time, all the profits of the medicine were given away to save you."

Gates' father, Gainan, was scolding Gates, and Gates was stunned.

Gates was still happily calculating the accounts the second before, but he didn't expect that his father would rush in the next second, scolding Gates and making him look confused.

But Gates soon reacted.

"Jiang Tong, you bastard."

A huge voice came from the Gai family mansion, and the anger of the owner of the voice could even be felt through the voice.

At this time, Jiang Tong could feel someone talking about him, but after thinking about it for a while, Jiang Tong realized that who else could be talking about him at this time except Gates.

In the Kingdom Council Hall, the King of Winter narrowed his eyes and listened to the whole thing, and showed interest in Jiang Tong.

"Check his background."

The King of Winter ordered the eldest prince next to him. The eldest prince went out for a while and came back soon with a document in his hand.

"Jiang Tong, a native of Frost Village, was brought back to the outer city resettlement area by Gates, the captain of the Third Corps of the Kingdom Guard Army. He is suspected to be a Tuka Knight."

The ministers looked at the First General.

"I don't know about this." The First General had no choice.

The Third Corps was under the jurisdiction of the Quartermaster Department, and the First General could not govern it. The other party was only in the military establishment, and was actually a guard force responsible for foreign trade. The Quartermaster Department was closer to the Minister of Finance.

Hearing that Jiang Tong might be a disciple of the Tuka Knight, the King of Winter became more interested. A disciple of a titled knight? Or a disciple?

The King of Winter thought of something even more distant from this incident. That was before the evil god came. At that time, an invincible strong man came to this continent. He had the spirit of a king and spread his power on this continent, which led to the emergence of a knight system on this continent.

The King of Winter is a little old and has forgotten the name of that person. The two are still friends. What is his name?

Oh, I remember. He said that people in his continent called him the Hero King. I wonder how he is now? Under his protection, his people should live better.

Seeing that the King of Winter seemed to be in deep thought, the ministers quieted down and did not dare to disturb the King of Winter's thinking.

"I want to see him. Let someone go outside the city to inform him."

The King of Winter recovered from his memories and then instructed the eldest prince.

Afterwards, the Minister of Finance and the First General did not continue to mention this matter. The King of Winter was interested in this guy, so he could not be dealt with, at least not before the King of Winter died.

This time, Jiang Tong's actions outside the city damaged the interests of multiple factions, but they would not express their positions before confirming the King's attitude.

At this time, Li Dabai was anxious about the task, and he circled around Jiang Tong, making him dizzy.

"Don't circle around, haven't we got the item? We only need the Fire Pendant. As for entering the city, someone will come to let us in soon."

Just as Jiang Tong finished speaking, someone came to report that Gates was here.

"Hurry up and follow me, the King wants to see you." Gates was aggressive and pulled Jiang Tong away.

Li Dabai hurried to catch up.

Under the gaze of everyone, Jiang Tong got on the carriage, and the carriage rushed into the city.

The three of them sat in the carriage, and Li Dabai finally climbed onto the carriage with agility, and now he was panting there.

Jiang Yi saw his captain being taken into the city, thinking something had happened, and called for his men. If Jiang Tong did not send back any news tomorrow, he would lead his men to attack the city.

But this was no different from seeking death. They could surround and kill the great knights, but there were many great knights in the Kingdom Guard. There were indeed few great knights, but it depended on where they were. The Kingdom Guard was the strongest violent agency in Winter City.

In the carriage, Gates sprayed at Jiang Tong.

"What did you do with my name? I have paid back everything I got from you this time. If the king wants to attack us this time, no one can escape."

"They also robbed the sons of two ministers. Our faction can't stand it. The military supply department can't beat those two big guys, brother."

"I shouldn't have brought you here. What the hell."

Regardless of his complaints, Jiang Tong took out the formula of the purification potion and handed it directly to Gates, and then

He took out a bottle of newly researched medicine.

After reading the formula and verifying the medicine, Gates changed his tone again.

"The Minister of Finance and the First Minister are nothing. You have to hold them up even if you can't."

After Gates got these two things, he became very high-spirited and his face changed instantly.

Jiang Tong did not ask Gates. Gates was a smart man and he should know what to do.

After sending the two to the palace, Gates left. Someone took the two into a palace, where wine and food were prepared for them to wait.

Jiang Tong sat in the seat prepared for him and looked at the hall.

The hall was built entirely with giant wood, which came from the Sea Kingdom. The floor was a large flat marble slab with various beasts carved on it. The architectural style was somewhat similar to the Greek architectural style on Earth.

In addition, there were some strange patterns carved on the wood. Jiang Tong knew that these patterns were related to the formation. It was estimated that this hall was a node of the palace formation.

Jiang Tong kept scanning, and then found an old man at the door. The old man was wearing a robe made of snow-white fur, a leather hat that looked smooth, and had a sturdy primitive aura, just like the tribal warriors of the caveman era that Jiang Tong had seen before.

The old man was very thin, with skin wrapped around his skeleton, and his back was straight. From the skeleton, it can be inferred that this old man must have been a tall warrior in the past, but now this old man is still strong, with a momentum on his body, very much like the hero king, but his momentum is not as gentle as the hero king.

After observing this, Jiang Tong has guessed who this old man is.

There is a dwarf next to the old man, who is shorter than the old man.

"Hello, I am Wei, and this is my son Lun."

"Hello, my name is Jiang Tong." Jiang Tong stood up and answered.

Wei, the son of Yan, was the strongest man in the Kingdom of Winter back then, and now the King of Winter, and also the second generation King of Winter.

Wei walked to the main seat in the palace and sat down, letting his son leave. Then the three of them were silent in the hall for a long time, so quiet that even the difference in their heartbeats could be heard.

Finally, Wei broke the silence.
