Chapter 3394 Return to the city

Count Miran was really angry. You are just a small businessman, but you don't give him any face at all. What do you rely on?

Unexpectedly, the other party actually had some support.

Yes, Lucy quickly brought out her backer, that is, the appointment letter from Prime Minister Terrad, indicating that she is no longer an ordinary businessman, but the vice president of the Royal Chamber of Commerce.

Although Earl Miran had not paid attention to this matter, he had heard about it. However, the Royal Chamber of Commerce was still in the establishment stage and did not even hold a position in the court. It was not a formal institution. Earl Miran actually did not know what the Royal Chamber of Commerce did specifically.

Obviously, Lucy's method could scare a city guard captain like Duman, but it obviously couldn't scare Count Miran.

  He knew that Lucy was definitely taking advantage of the power of others. If something really happened, would Terrad punish him, a noble, for a small businessman like you?

Besides, he is no longer an ordinary noble. Terrad should obviously know about the drawing of lots. How could he come to him at this time?

But even so, he couldn't openly cause trouble for Terrad. Since Terrad had been mentioned, he had to save the prime minister's face and couldn't slap him in the face.

So Count Miran let Lucy go back on the surface, but in fact, as soon as the other party left, he directly ordered his men to capture her back.

The difference in doing so is the face issue for Terrad. After all, the appointment letter was issued by Terrad. Although he is just a businessman, if you openly detain him, it would be a loss of Terrad's face.

But if you capture someone in private, even if everyone knows that you captured him, it doesn't matter. Because Terrad won't investigate, so there is room for maneuver.

He was sure that Terrad would never investigate the matter, thinking that Earl Miran was about to become a celebrity in the imperial society, and no one would bother him at this time. And Terrad, how could he stand up for a businessman? He just said he didn't know about it, and no one would mind his business.

Lucy obviously didn't expect Count Miran to be so rampant. Although she prepared the music box, Lucy obviously didn't know what it was used for. How could a small businessman like her get the news of such a thing?

So when she was attacked, Lucy obviously hadn't reacted yet.

The Earl's men were naturally not comparable to the few guards of the Chamber of Commerce. The few guards here were still loyal and protected Lucy all the way out. Except for the old butler who drove him, the other guards were almost killed instantly.

The old butler was obviously seriously injured, and Lucy was also frightened by this sudden change and was unresponsive for a while.

It was obvious that she had not dealt with nobles very often before, and she had never expected this group of people to come like this. This was in the imperial city, and the other party dared to kill people in the street, with no scruples at all.

If she had known this situation, she would not have come to see him so rashly. Of course, it was too late to say anything now. Her mind was blank now.

The old butler who was driving the car could no longer bear it. He was bleeding too much and was almost unconscious. The carriage was bumping around everywhere, and everything on the street was affected. Fortunately, the road he was driving on was relatively straight, otherwise the carriage would have overturned long ago.

"Who are you? Stop the car!" Just then, a voice sounded from the front.

The old butler who was driving the car did hear it, but at this time he had almost lost consciousness. He could not even lift his head, and could not see what was happening ahead or who asked him to stop.

It was obvious that the carriage had no intention of stopping and continued to rush forward. Then there was a loud "bang", and Lucy in the carriage was completely unprepared. With a huge force, she was thrown out and crashed through the roof and flew into the air.

Lucy felt a sharp pain and didn't know what happened. She just felt like she was flying in the air. Just when she thought she was going to die, a strong chest suddenly pressed against her, and soon she felt that she was being hugged, like a princess.

A strange smell soon entered her nostrils, and she was sure that the person hugging her was a man. However, she was already dizzy at the moment, and she really couldn't recover, nor could she look at who was hugging her.

"Sir!" "Sir!" She could only hear many people around her shouting "Sir" in her direction, probably calling the man who was holding her.

"Someone is coming." At this time she heard the man's voice again, a very strong male voice, and it sounded like he should not be very old.

Then came the sounds of swords and armor.

Lucy looked forward with a confused look in her eyes and found that there were many soldiers beside her. At this time, they were all pointing their swords and guns forward, because there were several figures chasing them in front.

Obviously, these were the ones who came to capture Lucy, sent by Count Miran.

Seeing the battle on the other side, the people chasing Lucy stopped. There were a lot of people on the other side, and judging by their attire, they were wearing the equipment of the regular army of the empire. The person on the other side was obviously a general.

It was not strange for the other party to appear here, because in a few days it would be the Crown Prince's first birthday banquet, and of course all the imperial nobles who had nothing to do had to come back to attend the banquet. So it was not strange for a general to appear in the city.

The other party should be a general who just returned to the city, and these people did not recognize who he was. It is said that because there are too many people returning to the imperial city in the past few days, the people entering the city lined up at the city gate, and everyone wanted to come and take part in the crown prince's wedding banquet.

So even at night these days, there were still people entering the city. Of course, the empire did not declare martial law or curfew, so anyone could enter.

Linton never worried about anyone taking the opportunity to rebel. Maybe he was just bored.

"General, we have been ordered to take this woman back. Please hand her over to us." The leader was quite polite and bowed to the man opposite who was holding Lucy.

"You're arresting people in the street at this late hour?" a man's voice sounded, "You don't look like good people at all."

"We are from Earl Miran's mansion. Please give us some convenience, General." The leader did not want to drag it out for too long. After all, this matter could not be exposed too much. Now the matter has become a bit serious. If the city guards really come to find them, they are not worried about being caught, but they will lose face for Earl Miran, and then they will be punished by the earl, so they moved out of the backstage directly.

"Earl Miran? Who is he? From your tone, he seems to be quite famous? From what you said, this guy is more famous than me, right?" The man smiled directly, "Listen carefully, my name is Gasen Melowei. Go back and ask your master who is more famous."
