Steel, Guns, and the Industrial Party that Traveled to Another World
Chapter 94 Blackmail 3
Emerson waited until noon the next day with resentment.
After Paul bid farewell to Queller and his entourage and teased his female advisor a little, Bernard sent someone to find Emerson and informed him that he could meet Count Grayman at 2 p.m. in the drawing room of the castle. .
At two o'clock, Paul came to the drawing room, but did not see the messenger.
"Forget it, just wait for a while."
Paul opened a book and sat in the living room and started reading.
After reading a chapter, he looked up at the grandfather clock in the living room and saw that 15 minutes had passed.
He shook his head, feeling slightly unhappy. Since he took over as lord, he has never met anyone who dared to let him go.
After continuing to wait for a while, it was already half past two, and Paul couldn't help it anymore.
"Bernard!" he shouted.
The chief secretary immediately ran over from the office, "What's the matter? Lord Graiman!"
"Huh? Where is Sir Emerson? Is he gone already?" Bernard noticed that something seemed wrong.
Paul said dissatisfiedly: "I want to ask you again! Didn't you inform me at the wrong time?"
The chief secretary immediately said: "It's impossible, Lord Graiman. At half past one, I sent someone to remind you again."
Paul became confused: "Is there an accident? Send someone to look for him again."
"Yes, Lord Grayman." Bernard turned around and left.
At this time, a servant came in and reported: "Sir Emerson, the messenger from Emden, has come to pay a visit to Earl Greyman."
Paul was angry and annoyed all of a sudden: "Okay! It seems that I was simply let go by others."
The chief secretary said with some surprise: "Oh! This is too much."
Yesterday, the envoy seemed a bit domineering, but after all, he was just a secretary, so he didn't think anything of it.
Now it seems that this envoy is simply arrogant. He actually made a dignified earl wait for him for half an hour. He decided to stay in the drawing room and see how things would develop.
The servant brought Emerson in, and Paul glanced at him. He looked pretty good, but there was a bit of a sinister look in his eyes. He didn't know whether he was born like this or pretended.
Emerson came to Paul and performed aristocratic etiquette.
Paul didn't even want to stand up, let alone return the gift. He just pointed to the opposite side to signal the messenger to sit down.
When Emerson saw Paul like this, the corner of his mouth curled up slightly and he sat down.
Then Paul asked: "Your envoy has come all the way to Huxin Town. What advice do you have?"
Emerson said unhurriedly: "Advice is not appropriate. I am here on the order of the Earl of Kent to ask you about Arda's unauthorized detention of the Earl of Garnard."
"What? Seizure?" Paul sneered.
Emerson nodded solemnly and said: "Yes, Viscount Angelo, the director of Bailding, has clearly informed the surrounding lords of the whole matter."
Paul was disdainful: "Humph! I also sent you a notice, haven't you read it? Or do you just believe the one-sided words of those traitors?"
The other party shook his head: "Lord Grayman, please don't confuse right and wrong."
Paul turned to Bernard and ordered: "Invite Myron here."
He was too lazy to talk nonsense to Emerson, so he handed over the real person directly to see what the other party had to say.
Silence fell in the living room. Paul was too lazy to pay attention to the messenger who was letting him go and saying that he was confusing right and wrong. He picked up the book and continued to read.
Emerson didn't speak anymore and began to close his eyes to rest, looking neither anxious nor bored.
After a while, Myron came to the living room. He had been told by Bernard what happened. As soon as he came in, he said:
"Mr. Messenger, what Angelo and others said is nonsense. These traitors murdered my father and their lord, and later tried to plot against me. Fortunately, I overheard their conversation and wrote a secret letter to me. Bloodsworn Brother Paul Grayman, and fled to Lake Town before they realized that the conspiracy had been exposed, and then Paul sent troops to defeat the traitors."
"In short, please don't listen to the traitors' deceptive words."
Emerson waited quietly for Myron to finish, then said with a smile: "Earl Garner, I know you are in danger now and have to say something against your will, but please rest assured that the Earl of Kent will definitely seek justice for you."
Paul and Myron were speechless after hearing what he said. What kind of operation is this?
Myron retorted: "I'm very good now, completely free."
Emerson shook his head and said: "If you hadn't been under house arrest, and if Count Grayman hadn't attempted to annex Bairding, how could we explain that you still haven't returned to Butua but are still staying in Lake Town?" Now all the government orders in Bairding are issued by Huxin Town?"
Myron explained: "Because my people are all traitors, I don't have any loyal and capable assistants to help me govern Bairding, so I have to turn to Lake Center Town for help, and I just returned a few days ago." Butuya convened a meeting with the businessmen in the territory and stayed there for several days. You can go to Bailding and ask! "
Emerson turned a deaf ear and insisted: "Lord Ganard, I understand your difficulties. Believe me, the surrounding lords will never sit idly by and ignore such a violation of nature."
There is no mistake. One post, one content, one 6 one, one book, one book, one read!
He changed the subject and stared at Paul and said, "Even if the vassals of Bayerdin have the intention of rebellion, it should be handed over to Lord Ferdinand, the Duke of the Northwest, to make a fair decision. Count Graman took over Bayerdin by force without asking for permission, which shows that he does not take Lord Ferdinand seriously."
Paul retorted, "Both the Garnard family and the Graman family are vassals who have sworn allegiance to the royal family. We can handle our own affairs without asking for permission from Duke Ferdinand."
Emerson stood up suddenly and sneered, "The previous king once granted Lord Ferdinand the power of conquest. The lords in the Northwest Bay area must be under his jurisdiction. You acted without asking for permission, which is undoubtedly a slap in Lord Ferdinand's face."
"You..." Melon wanted to continue to refute Emerson.
However, he was stopped by Paul.
Paul had already seen that the envoy sent by the Kent family insisted that he had detained Mellon and brought up Ferdinand, the Duke of the Northwest, to pressure him. He was just looking for trouble. It was useless to reason with him.
He didn't seem to have offended the Kent family? Oh, except for arresting a few spies.
But he was the one who was right that time. He didn't make a fuss at that time, and didn't go to Emden to accuse the other party with the idea of keeping things quiet. Unexpectedly, the other party went too far.
Wait, spies? At that time, those spies seemed to be here to steal papermaking technology...
Thinking of this, he roughly understood why the Kent family sent the envoy here.
Paul adjusted his mentality, smiled at Emerson, and stretched out his hand to make a gesture of inviting him to sit down.
At the same time, he said softly: "Mr. Envoy, please sit down first. Many things can be discussed slowly."
"Many things!" He repeated it while looking into the other party's eyes.
Emerson looked at Paul's smile, and the expression on his face gradually eased.
He sat down, smiled back and said, "Of course, Lord Graman, many things can be discussed slowly."
The young earl finally understood.
I was busy today and didn't have time to write the manuscript for tomorrow. I may not be able to write it tomorrow morning.
