Chapter 151 Retirement?

To be honest, Duanmu Huai never expected that he would be able to have such a good show just because he was idle and bored to attend the banquet.

The reason why he agreed to Anlai to attend this banquet was mainly because the Guardian Civilization was currently being rebuilt, and Duanmuhuai had nothing to do for the time being. So when An said that they were invited to a noble dinner, Duanmuhuai agreed.

After all, it was also the first time for him to participate in this kind of aristocratic dinner in reality, so he also wanted to experience the atmosphere.

But what Duanmuhuai didn't expect was that he actually let himself watch a good show? !

Retirement flow, I thought this kind of plot would only appear in novels!

However, this reason is too intellectually retarded!

In the online novels read by Duan Muhuai, the general trend of divorce is mainly because the male protagonist’s family is poor, or the male protagonist has no talent, and then loses the right to inherit, etc. The woman feels that it is not good to marry the trash male protagonist, so she cancels the marriage contract. Then the male protagonist said that thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, don't bully the young and poor, etc. Although this reason is a bit snobbish, it is not unreasonable when you think about it carefully.

Who likes to marry their precious daughter to a piece of trash, doesn't they? Unless the woman also thinks that this woman is a loser and just throws it away to save worry, she will usually choose to renege on the marriage contract.

Of course, it is not uncommon for the man to take the initiative to break up. Duanmuhuai still remembers that when he was watching a short video, his wife put a cuckold on her husband. The husband was angry, but he made the video of the cuckold public on the wedding day, and then directly kicked the woman's joke.

But... To be honest, your excuse is really laughing out loud!

God damn love, what kind of stupid idiot said this?

"Master Yard...!"

The noble lady named Audrey was also obviously shocked. She wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the man waving.

"Shut up, Audrey Harsha, I judge that you are not qualified to be my fiancee, and you have done all kinds of evil things to Angela, don't even think about denying it!!"

"Evil deeds...?"

Facing Yard's accusation, Audrey seemed to be in a daze, completely unaware of what he was talking about, while the latter stared at Audrey and said angrily.

"Didn't you look down on Angela and even bully her because she was born as a commoner? You not only bullied her, but also stole and destroyed Angela's property, and even attempted to assassinate Angela! I've investigated it all! You are behind all the evil deeds!"

Hearing this, everyone was in an uproar, even An and Guleya's eyes widened in surprise, not knowing what to say. Duanmuhuai glanced at them and asked.

"is that so?"

"I, I have never heard of such a thing in the academy!"

Ann shook her head desperately, joking, she is the princess of Manalia, if such bullying or even assassination happened in Manalia Academy, it is impossible for her to be ignorant!

"Miss Hannah?"

Duanmu Huai looked at Hannah, who frowned tightly.

"During the days when you were not in the academy, Miss Audrey and Miss Angela did have some conflicts, but at most it was just that Miss Audrey hoped that Miss Angela would not get too close to her fiancé. I heard that there is such a thing..."

"We are willing to testify!!"

However, at this moment, several young people came out of the crowd and stood beside Yard. Seeing those people, An opened his mouth even more, unable to speak.

"What's up with her?"

Seeing An's appearance, Duanmu Huai asked Gu Leya suspiciously, could there be someone she likes among them?

Facing Duanmuhuai's question, Guleya hesitated for a moment before answering in a low voice.

"These are the sons of the nobles in the kingdom of Manaria, and they are all important figures among the nobles of the kingdom..."

"I see."

Duanmuhuai finally understood why An would show such an expression. Before coming to the banquet, An also introduced to Duanmuhuai that the two families engaged this time were facilitated by her father and king and were part of a political marriage. But having said that, because it is a political marriage, it is not as simple as two engagements, and it will even affect the political situation of the royal family.

Now, the engagement ceremony, which the king has already approved, will be opposed by the heirs who are also from the important ministers. This inevitably makes people wonder if there are signs of power struggles in the kingdom. Unexpectedly, a simple engagement dinner would turn out like this.

At this moment, those noble sons also stood beside Angela and reprimanded Audrey.

"Miss Angela is indeed a commoner. She may not be familiar with the understanding that nobles should have, but Miss Audrey's reprimand is too much!"

"It's obvious that Angela has also put in the effort, but it's unacceptable for you to commit such evil deeds just because of your different identities!"

Facing the accusations from everyone, Audrey's complexion became paler, and she also opened her mouth to refute.

"I did teach Miss Angela some truths, but I don't remember ever hurting her!"

"This is your arrogance! As the daughter of an earl with a prominent family background, you look down on ordinary civilians at all!"

Yard stared at Audrey fiercely.

"Stop making excuses! Other daughters have already cried to us, saying that they were forced to bully Miss Angela under your instigation!!"

Soon, several noble daughters came over and began to cry, and Duanmuhuai figured out the reason through their crying.

To put it simply, according to this group of people, as the daughter of the earl, Audrey always disliked Angela, who was born as a commoner, so she always scolded her, and even hinted that those daughters would bully her, so as to argue with her. Cleaning up the relationship... Well, in short, it looks like a vicious character like the eldest sister, second sister or stepmother in the Cinderella story.

And with the words of these people, the atmosphere of the banquet hall also began to change. Everyone began to cast dissatisfied and angry eyes on Audrey, and Audrey stood there blankly, with a look of not knowing what to do. What to do to look good.

"your Highness!!"

However, at this moment, Yard suddenly raised his head and looked at Ann. Hearing his shout, the others also turned their attention to Ann.

"Please punish this vicious woman immediately!!"

"Huh? But... this..."

Faced with Yard's request, Ann was at a loss for a while. She originally came here, at best, to represent the royal family and send blessings for their engagement. It turned out that the engagement dinner would turn out like this, which made An Yi not know what to do for a while.

After all, she is not very good at this kind of interpersonal communication, otherwise, Anzai would not have only Guleya as a friend in the academy.

But just when An didn't know what to do, Duanmu Huai patted her on the head.

"give it to me."

"Mr. Knight? Can you?"

Hearing Duanmuhuai's words, An's eyes lit up immediately, and Duanmuhuai also chuckled.

"Of course, you are also my fiancée after all. I can't watch you being embarrassed by others."

"Hey hey..."

Facing Duanmuhuai's words, An shyly showed a smile, then she nodded, lifted the hem of her skirt and stepped back. But Duanmuhuai stepped forward and stared at the crowd. Seeing Duanmuhuai's appearance, the whispers around him disappeared immediately. After all, everyone knew Duanmuhuai's reputation as a dragon slaying warrior, not to mention that he was the fiancé of An and Guleya. We all know that he will be the next King of Manaria, so naturally he dare not be presumptuous in front of him.

Duanmuhuai glanced at the people in front of him, including the pale-faced Audrey, several aristocratic heirs who were filled with righteous indignation and seemed to want to do justice for the heavens, the weeping daughter, and the girl who was held in her arms by Yard. Yes, a girl named Angela.

Then, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a sneer.

Hmph, you are really tired of playing tricks in front of the judge.

Thinking of this, Duanmuhuai said.

"I have almost understood what happened. Since you have said so much, then... come up with evidence."

"Why?"

Facing Duanmu Huai's outstretched hand, everyone was taken aback. Looking at their reactions, Duanmuhuai frowned.

"What? Aren't you just now being confident and aggressive? You can't even produce any evidence and just talk nonsense here!"

Speaking of this, Duanmu Huai first looked at the young ladies, feeling his gaze, the crying young ladies were startled, and hurriedly backed away.

"Let's start with you. You said that you were bullying Miss Angela under the instruction of Miss Audrey. Then bring the evidence."

"I, we..."

Faced with Duanmuhuai's scrutiny, the faces of the noble daughters turned pale.

"We have no evidence..."

"No? There are no notes or anything? Then what the hell are you making up here?"

"No, it's not that we don't want to leave evidence, Your Excellency!!"

At this time, a girl couldn't help herself, she looked at Duanmuhuai and began to cry.

"Because Mrs. Audrey hinted at us, we have to do this. If we don't do this, we will become the targets of Mrs. Audrey's bullying......!!"

"Oh I see."

Duanmuhuai nodded.

"Then, find a witness. Since you said that if you don't bully Angela, you will be bullied by Miss Audrey, then there must be such a victim? Where is she?"

"this……………"

Facing Duanmuhuai's request, the noble daughters were speechless again, and Duanmuhuai squinted his eyes again, staring at them.

"So, there is no such victim? So you are talking nonsense?"

"Your Excellency, you———!"

"Is not it?"

Duanmu Huai cast a cold glance at Yard.

"They can't produce evidence, and they don't have witnesses to prove their claims. Isn't this nonsense? According to this logic, I will punch you now, and then I will tell you that His Majesty the King wants to beat you because he sees that you are not pleasing to the eye, so I will Do it for me, don't hate me for hating His Majesty the King, do you think it will work?"

"Woo..."

Faced with Duanmuhuai's words, Yard's complexion turned pale, but An chuckled softly.

"Your Mightiness!"

At this time, another noble boy stood up and stared at him.

"We pledge our reputation..."

"How much is your reputation worth, just shut up."

"You, what did you say?!!"

Hearing Duanmu Huai's unceremonious answer, the boy turned pale with anger.

"How dare you insult our family..."

"so what?"

Duanmu Huai snorted coldly, then stretched out his hand, pointing at the crowd.

"Looking at your current situation, this is definitely not a temporary idea. In other words, you have long planned to make trouble at this dinner party and embarrass Miss Audrey, right. This is your own business, and I also I don't care, but what do you think of us guests at the banquet? Are you fools? We are here to attend the engagement banquet, not to watch you play monkey games here. Are you this kind of scumbag?"

"........."

Hearing Duanmuhuai's words, the eyes of the guests looking at the noble heirs changed. Indeed, as Duanmuhuai said, when they came this time, they didn't hear about the matter in front of them. Blessed by a newcomer, how dare you plot against us?

Do you really treat us like monkeys?

Sensing the change in the atmosphere around him, Yard's face turned pale.

"Your Mightiness…………!"

"alright!"

Duanmuhuai waved his hand abruptly, interrupting his speech.

"Since you want me and An to give you an explanation, then I will give you an explanation..."

While speaking, Duanmu Huai strode up to Yard, then he reached out, grabbed Angela, pulled her out, and then stared at Angela carefully. And the latter was trembling at the moment, with a pale face and a look of wanting to cry but not tears. He looked like the kind of heroine in a bitter drama that easily makes men feel protective.

It's the kind that fell in love first, then got pregnant, then had a miscarriage, and then found out that her best friend was with her husband, and then was kicked out of the house for divorce.

But Duanmuhuai obviously won't spoil her. As a judge, he has seen too many scenes.

So at this moment, Duanmuhuai stared at the girl, opened his mouth, smiled coldly, and then waved his hand.

"Guards! Put this woman in jail!"

"What?!!"

Everyone was taken aback by Duanmuhuai's decision. They never thought that Duanmuhuai would be so horrifying and put this poor girl in jail? !

"How could you do this! Obviously Angela is the victim!!"

At this moment, Yard also clenched his fists and rushed forward, but Duanmuhuai slapped him to the ground with a flip of his hand.

"The things you said were all told by this woman. There is no evidence to slander others at will. I think it would be good for this kind of woman to be locked up for a night to let her calm down. As for you..."

Speaking of this, Duanmu Huai gave another cold stare to those noble young masters who had just stood up and "could expose the testimony".

"All follow me to the palace now! Find out about this matter in front of the king!"

No one dared to disobey Duanmuhuai's order. After all, everyone knew how ruthless this dragon slaying hero was, not to mention that just standing there made people feel frightened. And those noble young masters got into the carriage angrily, obviously planning to run to the king to sue the imperial court.

Of course, Duanmuhuai also ordered someone to notify the parents of these idiots—the son is not the father's fault, let's come out together and admit the beating and be punished! !

"is this okay?"

Although Ann was also very happy, she was still a little uneasy. After all, it would not be a trivial matter if it came to the king.

"Of course, if these bastards want to use you, they will have to pay a price."

Although Duanmuhuai was a little curious about this matter, strictly speaking, it had nothing to do with him, so he was just watching from the sidelines at first.

But after that bastard named Yald named An Lai to judge, things changed.

After all, their nonsense just now had already made the guests present sympathize with Angela. If Ann didn't sanction Audrey, it would obviously be unreasonable. In fact, only Ann, who is the first princess of Manaria, is qualified to punish Audrey. It is because of knowing this that Yard asked Ann to judge.

This puts Ann in a dilemma. If she doesn't follow Yard's advice, she will inevitably be regarded as a hard-hearted and sympathetic princess. And if you follow Yard's words... Hey, it's the other way around, are you the princess or is she the princess? Do you dare to teach her how to do things?

It would be strange if you were killed in ancient times, copying and beheading all kinds of families!

"hey-hey……………"

An is also smart, so of course she understands why Duanmuhuai stood up for her, so she hugged Duanmuhuai's arm with a smile at this time, and stopped talking.

But at this time, Hannah asked anxiously.

"However, there's no need to put Miss Angela in jail. Although I admit that due to various reasons, there will be some problems between girls... But it's not that..."

"Hehe, I think exactly the opposite of yours."

Facing Hannah's statement, Duanmuhuai shook his head, then he turned his head and looked at Augis beside him.

"Augis, I want you to go to the Holy Church now, find Lorena, and ask her to bring some stronger exorcists."

"Yes Master."

Hearing Duanmuhuai's order, Augis nodded, then turned and left directly. Seeing this scene, the other three girls also turned their gazes to Duanmuhuai, and then Guleya asked suspiciously.

"Mr. Knight, are you......?"

"I suspect that the woman named Angela is not human."

"Why?"

Hearing Duanmu Huai's words, the girls were all shocked.

"Really?"

"It feels a little bit, but there's no proof yet."

The reason why Duanmuhuai said this is also very simple, that is, when he first looked at Angela, the display on her head was a very normal expression of [Angela (LV13)].

However, when Duanmuhuai approached her, he found that the sign above Angela's head suddenly changed, turning into a mass of blurred words.

Although he recovered immediately, this immediately aroused Duanmuhuai's suspicion. He was certain that this Angela was probably some kind of disguise, and the reason why the mark above her head changed was because her fear aura had affected her disguise. After all, even if the aura of fear is saved, it will cause a round of trembling. Although the time is very short, it cannot be resisted.

And more importantly, although Angela was shaken for a moment before Duanmuhuai's fear aura, she recovered quickly!

In other words, she exempted herself from the fear aura!

Now Angela said that she is human, but Duanmuhuai didn't believe it anymore.

He can be sure that there must be something wrong with this woman's identity!
