I really can't control myself.

Chapter 3397 Processing
Soon everyone understood one thing: Linton was still the same Linton.

Although Linton was well-known for his love of killing ministers, and all officials and nobles knew it, there was a period of time before when Linton did stay quiet.

On the one hand, Linton was away for a long time this time, spending more than 40 days investigating. On the other hand, these ministers had also started to learn their lesson, and if no one was stirring up trouble, Linton would certainly not mess with them for no reason.

But before everyone could breathe a sigh of relief, the incident of Count Miran once again reminded everyone.

Yes, it is hard to say whether Count Miran is lucky or unlucky. Just a second ago all the nobles received the news that Count Miran would be the one to present a gift to the Crown Prince. But before everyone could congratulate him, his whole family was suddenly gone in the next second.

The crime announced here is a very simple treason, which is naturally a serious crime.

But the problem is, who would believe this accusation? You are not mistaken, Linton is now sitting on the throne, even the huge monsters like the Church of Light and the Saint-level Association dare not move, how dare you, an earl, rebel?

Besides, Earl Miran was about to climb up the royal family, so why would he rebel at this time? He must be very disappointed.

Obviously, this charge was just made up at random. Of course, this kind of made-up charge happened to Linton more than once or twice.

What they didn't know was that Linton was too lazy to even make up a charge, and it was Terrad who helped him make it up. Linton was always the type who only cared about killing and not burying. Why would he charge you with a crime if he killed you? Every time someone was gone, the prime minister would come out to help clean up the mess.

Of course, the specific crime is not important. As I said before, Linton is very stable. Just like Earl Miran, no one dares to speak for them. Otherwise, what if Linton asks, "Are you also involved in the rebellion?" For an emperor like Linton, you have to adapt to him in order to survive.

Of course, Earl Miran was gone, but the first birthday party of Crown Prince Lin Rui could not be delayed. The chosen family that had been decided was suddenly gone, and another one had to be chosen.

This time, the remaining families were not surprised, but rather a little panicked. Originally, they thought that being selected on the list might be a list where everyone would rise to high heaven, but now it seems that this might really be a list where the whole family would rise to high heaven.

They still don't understand how the entire family of Earl Miran was wiped out, and they don't know how they offended Linton. After all, they know very well that Linton has no time to pay attention to a small earl, and no one will care about you unless you offend him.

So the only possibility they could know was this list. They wondered if it was because before getting involved with the royal family, the emperor wanted to thoroughly investigate the family to see if there were any problems.

This is certainly understandable. After all, they are looking for a godfather for the Crown Prince. Moreover, given the degree to which the Emperor and Empress currently love the Crown Prince, it is normal to do some background checks.

Therefore, many people speculated that there was something wrong with the background check of the Miran family, which was why Linton targeted them. Otherwise, there was really no explanation for this situation.

Now that the Miran family is gone, we must choose the next one. Does the chosen one need to be checked against the background? What if the investigation reveals something else? Isn't this...

Then do you think it is possible that nothing can be found out in the investigation? A family of integrity and honesty. I can only say that this is overestimating the moral standards of the nobles in this world. The nobles in this world do not even regard ordinary people as human beings. How can there be a family that is clean?

Even if most people in the family are honest and upright, there are always a few bad apples in a family as big as this. How can everyone be clean?
And they didn't know what Linton's standard was for exterminating a whole family. If you said that they would follow the national law, then no family would be able to escape. Of course, this was unlikely, and there would definitely be fluctuations, but we didn't know how often these fluctuations would occur.

And no one knows what Linton's floating standard is.

At least they still don't know which crime Count Miran has violated. In their opinion, Count Miran is considered to be relatively well-behaved among the nobles.

As mentioned before, Earl Miran was always cautious because his family was not big. This time, because he was chosen as the godfather, he rarely expanded himself, but he didn't expect to be tricked. He really didn't expect that messing with a merchant's daughter would cause such a big trouble.

The ministers did not guess that Linton's standard was to protect his own nephew. There are actually people who dare to mess with his own nephew. Aren't you just looking for death?

In short, the remaining few companies on the list have begun to tremble with fear. In their eyes, this list has simply become a death list, and each of them prays that they will not be chosen next.

As for the royal gossip, although it was widely spread, no one dared to discuss it at this time. The Earl of Miran and his family had already reminded them.

Right now, most people only know that Gasen brought a woman home, but they haven't connected the matter with Count Miran.

After all, Earl Miran's entire family was gone, including the servants at home. So not many people knew that Earl Miran had sent people to arrest people.

As one of the few people who knew the whole situation, Captain Duman was trembling with fear.

He felt like he knew some secret that he shouldn't know. Although he guessed that Count Miran might be finished before he captured those people, he didn't expect it to be so quick and clean.

He was so scared that he fell ill and is now lying in bed. Of course, he was mainly frightened by himself. Linton didn't care about secrets at all. He was too lazy to make up excuses for why he cared about this. He didn't know about Duman, a small person, from the beginning.

Of course, Linton also met Lucy soon. He asked Gasen to bring her to him to see who was the god who could handle the wooden stick overnight.

Knowing that Emperor Linton was going to summon her, Lucy couldn't pretend to be calm. It can only be said that Linton's reputation is really scary. In her eyes, Prime Minister Terrad, a big man, can't survive a word from Linton. Such a terrifying guy, do you think she would panic?

Lucy's mind went blank when she entered the palace, and she trembled all over when she saw Linton.

Obviously, she also knew that her current identity was somewhat strange. Who was Gasain's legal wife? She was the queen's biological sister. What was her current identity? Do you think it would be a good thing for Linton to find her?
