Reckless Through The New World
Chapter 405: cut off the arm
Duke Norma was in a coma for almost a day. After waking up, he was a little out of breath. With the help of the clergyman, he recovered a little bit of spirit. He immediately asked the housekeeper to arrange manpower to track down the source of the rumors on the street.
Of course, the housekeeper has already started to investigate, but the more he investigates, the more puzzled he becomes—from what he has found, it seems that the rumors were spread by at least twenty or thirty people. These people are old and young, male and female, fat and thin, and even special races such as half-elves and half-murlocs. He and a few staff members studied the intelligence for a night, but could not conclude any rules. Come.
The only thing they can be sure of is that these people didn't spread rumors together, but they did it first, and it seemed that they didn't make an appointment in advance.
But the rumors spread by these unprofessional guys dealt a very heavy blow to the Norma family.
The Norma family is now in a precarious state. Apart from money and a few caravans, the only remaining assets are the long-term accumulation of prestige. But the rumor about Yunero almost completely destroyed their reputation, not to mention outsiders who are not familiar with them, even the loyal nobles who migrated to Molai with them, have already revealed some inconveniences. Solid signs.
After all, those nobles participated in the original military meeting, and Yuneruo's proposal was reasonable, and even got the approval of most people. But Duke Norma took a very fierce attitude, and even didn't even bother to judge, and wanted him to die directly... Thinking about it, this is indeed unreasonable. Maybe it's just like the rumors said, Duke Norma just found a random reason to kill him in order to deny the promise he made in advance?
It is said that if the group of mysterious adventurers was really found by Yunero, then his credit should definitely be at least an earl, even if he was promoted to a marquis, it would be reasonable. But when everyone asked about it afterwards, Yunero was vague, so everyone thought it was probably just a coincidence.
Now it seems that maybe it is not a coincidence, but the duke gave him a gag order?
Once a person has a prejudice in his heart, his thoughts and thoughts can easily move in a given direction. These nobles had witnessed the scene of Yunero's loyalty being trampled on and grief and anger, and they were full of sympathy for him, and they were also somewhat dissatisfied with the Duke. At this time, being provoked by rumors, everyone suddenly felt that maybe the rumors were not rumors - at least not entirely rumors.
What you have in mind will naturally be expressed in words and deeds. Duke Norma's staff and subordinates usually get along with them, and they can see their thoughts.
This is amazing! If the hearts are scattered, the Norma family will be finished!
Because the duke was in a coma, they could only go to the Marquis of Trensou to discuss. But the Marquis can't do anything about it... Not to mention that he is not a great magician, even if he is a great magician, there is no way to modify the thoughts of so many people!
Ordinarily, at this time, the best way is for the duke to come forward and admit the mistake and posthumously recognize the title of Yunero. But this approach didn't work, because there was a very embarrassing problem - what Yunero asked at the time was surrender.
Duke Norma has already fled to Molai Port with everyone. Is it right to let him admit "surrender" at this time?
Does this want to die? Still want to die!
Regardless of the fact that the Norma family is still a duke, they no longer have the strength of a duke. The reason why they can maintain the dignity of the family now mainly depends on the support of other dukes. If it is foolish to admit that "surrender is right" now, it is equivalent to jumping into the fire pit and forcing other dukes to withdraw their support for them.
The sins committed by God can be forgiven, but the sins committed by oneself cannot live!
After the Duke of Norma woke up, the Marquis of Trensou told him these things in detail.
"Then what if I fall to the ground now?" Duke Norma asked.
"We discussed it. First of all, we have to admit that Yuneruo is loyal to you. Although he has gone the wrong way, at least his attitude is worthy of recognition." The Marquis of Trensou said, "Then, we can forgive his previous wrong remarks. , restore his nobility, but can no longer give rewards."
"That's it?" Duke Norma asked suspiciously.
"Of course it's not enough, but at least it can be slowed down for a while," said the Marquis of Trensou. "Slow down, whether we continue to investigate the source of the rumors or arrange for people to spread the opposite rumors, we can have enough. time."
"The opposite rumor?"
"Well, no matter what the people who spread rumors think, if you want to fight against rumors, you must use rumors." said the Marquis of Terence, "We can spread all kinds of ridiculous rumors, such as saying 'Yunero is actually Is the illegitimate son of the former Duke of Norma', or 'There is no such person in the world as Yunero, only a few masters who take turns disguised as lizardmen', or 'The real Yunero was killed by the Thracians long ago. , and later he was just wearing his lizard skin'... Anyway, you can say whatever is ridiculous or exaggerated."
"Would anyone believe such a rumor?" Duke Norma asked suspiciously.
"Probably not." The Marquis of Trensou laughed, "but we don't need to convince people of these rumors, but to use these rumors to confuse the water and make people feel at a loss... When the messy rumors are flying all over the sky, people will It will subconsciously doubt all the rumors, so naturally the effect of the previous rumors will be weakened."
Duke Norma suddenly realized that, nodded again and again, and asked Marquis of Trensou to arrange this matter.
After he woke up, he was exhausted, and his face was pale at this time. The Marquis of Terenceu hurriedly left and went out to arrange the spread of rumors.
He left the Duke's Mansion and got into the carriage. The gorgeous carriage was driven by the coachman and protected by four elite guards, heading towards the Marquis Mansion.
This carriage is not only beautifully decorated on the outside, but also very luxurious and comfortable inside. Lying in it, you can't even feel the vibration when the carriage is moving, just like a bed that can sleep peacefully.
The Marquis of Trensou likes to sleep in the carriage very much, which gives him a sense of satisfaction of "I am so hardworking".
But today, he couldn't sleep.
In front of him, a smiling figure, whose head was slowly deforming, turned into the appearance of a lizard man.
The Marquis of Trensou wanted to scream, but found that he couldn't move at all, as if he was stiff.
About half an hour later, the carriage stopped in the Marquis's Mansion. The driver lifted the curtain and tried to wake up the sleeping Marquis, but found the Marquis lying in the carriage with his eyes wide open. His face was as pale as paper, and his eyes were full of fear. There was a large amount of white and yellow under the body, and the chest did not rise and fall at all.
He was frightened to death.
In the hotel box on the corner not far away, Yunero took off the mask she was wearing, and her figure slowly returned to her normal appearance.
"The fraudster's mask is an amazing thing!" he exclaimed sincerely.
Beside him, several traversers who came to help laughed.
"This Marquis of Trunsu is the right-hand man of Duke Norma. Kill him first, and then slowly clean up the culprit." Wang Tuhao said with a sneer, "That guy dared to cheat us! If he died happily, Isn't it cheap for him!"
