Why did the lord rebel

Chapter 256 The Eve Of The Grand Ceremony
In the evening of that day, Xia Houyan limped into the courtyard gate of Igor's mansion with his hands on his waist.

He found Master Laurie and Eldridge two rams, set up a small table outside the porch, and played the Marne card with great interest by the light blue light of a magic crystal lamp.

As soon as he saw the high official Xiahou returning home, Master Laurie, who was about to lose the game, quickly lifted the table and stood up, and greeted the lord with a concerned expression.

Eldridge was dumbfounded, his face covered with cards.

"My lord! Why did you come back now!" Master Laurie said excitedly, "You jumped out of the door of 'Midnight Star' suddenly, which frightened me and Alan Cousins! At that time, the whole The brothel street is in a mess, we couldn't find you at all, and I almost died of anxiety!"

Xia Houyan glanced at the Marne card table on the ground, and Eldridge who was packing up the cards with a frustrated face, and said with a sneer:

"I see, you are in a hurry..."

Anyway, when the banner is raised, Master Laurie's face never turns red:
"Of course! Alan and I searched the streets with Chairman Shador for a long time, and then entrusted the city defense army to search for a while, but we still couldn't find any trace of you... Afterwards, the two of us made up our minds and decided that you should I won’t be so stupid as to be in danger, and the law and order in the imperial capital is really good, so there shouldn’t be any serious accidents... So I just went home and played cards with Xiao Ai at the door while waiting for you to come back... No, let me tell you It's time to wait!"

Xia Houyan rolled his eyes.

"So what did you do?" Master Laurie looked around and said in a low voice, "jumping out of a brothel is not a fun thing... Fortunately, you were wearing clothes at the time, otherwise the scandal would be serious." It's going to be a big mess!"

"It was a mess at the time, no one paid attention to me, there was a fart scandal! As for what you asked me to do - of course I went to arrest the mourners!" The lord said angrily, "The city defense army who arrested the spies at that time The inspection team formed a crowd at the entrance of the brothel, scaring away the mourner from the Bobuan sect! If I don’t catch up, wouldn’t I have missed this golden opportunity?”

"So have you caught up?" Master Laurie asked in a low voice.

"I've caught up." Xia Houyan rubbed his waist wearily, "I've caught up in every sense."

"So?" Master Laurie asked, "What did the funeral mourner say? Did you agree to cooperate with us?"

"I beat her up with carrots and sticks. She's just a little mourner. How dare you fight against our Igor family? Now at least the Bombling Sect in the imperial capital is under the control of Shuangfengling. As for other parishes, we still need to contact other mourners." Xia Houyan said with a blank expression, "After the 'St. Augustus Festival' celebration is over, we will hold a family meeting and plan in detail. What should we do? Manage the Thin Burial Sect!"

Even Master Laurie was greatly shocked by the fruitful results achieved by the lord today, and sincerely raised a thumbs up of praise.

"To be honest, this day is really exciting!" Master Laurie said with a smirk, "It's a pity you didn't see the spectacular scene of the city defense army's inspection team all over the street arresting orc spies—that orc spy, looking at the big and three thick, But he was as agile as a fucking monkey! In order to avoid the inspection team, that green-skinned idiot even climbed all the way to the top of the bell tower, and then jumped down as desperately—"

"And then?" Xia Houyan raised his eyebrows.

"Dead. Who can survive such a high jump?" Master Laurie picked his nostrils disdainfully, "I guess the orc's intelligence must be a little problematic, it seems that jumping into the straw cart under the clock tower will soften the body." Landing survived... Cough, you didn't see that epic scene where brains, blood, straw and wood flew together... It's a pity that the inspection team couldn't find any useful information after she died."

"The orc spies have nothing to do with our Shuangfengling! Come on, I'm exhausted today..." Xia Houyan thought for a while, then waved his hand, "Tomorrow we all have to get up early, Shuangfengling The delegation still has the last training session before the St. Augustus Day celebration, and tomorrow night will be our mobilization dinner—if there is nothing else, I will go back to take a shower and sleep..."

Master Laurie, who could tell the lord was tired at a glance, had no choice but to suppress his desire to share, shrugged and nodded.

Xia Houyan bid farewell to Master Laurie, opened the door of his house and walked into the hallway, and took a few steps towards his lord's bedroom by the spiral staircase. Eldridge, who sniffed fiercely with his nose.

"What's wrong?" Xia Houyan was startled, grabbed his robe and took a step back on the stairs.

Eldridge glanced around furtively, then looked at the lord with eyes that men could understand, and said with a smile:
"My lord, I won't spread the word, you tell me, ah, tell me... Are you really going to catch the mourners today?"

"Yes... yes..." Xia Houyan stammered.

Eldridge curled his lips in disdain:
"Boss, why the hell are you talking to your brother, ah, you still keep it a secret... and you still 'catch the mourners'... You, ah, are all fucking Miss Isa Sandria's body, ah, Rose Perfume—does that make sense?"

"Fuck!" Xia Houyan was a little panicked, "Ai Shuai, why the hell is your nose sharper than a dog?!"

"Small tricks..." Eldridge spoke very modestly, with a stinky expression on his face.

But immediately, he put on a wretched smile, and narrowly poked the lord with his elbow:
"Boss, tell the truth, ah, are you pretending to arrest someone, but actually having a tryst with Miss Isa Sandria, ah, wandering off?"

Xia Houyan was too lazy to explain, and rolled his eyes helplessly:

"You say yes, that is, don't quibble..."

"Awesome!" Eldridge gave a thumbs up, "Don't worry, ah, I, Eldridge, will never be a fuck, ah, boy, go talk to Miss Katerina, ah , tipped off..."

"What tipping?" Katerina's confused voice suddenly rang out from behind the two of them.

Xia Houyan and Eldridge looked at each other in horror, then turned around with smirks at the same time.

Katerina put her hands on her hips and stared at the two stinky men suspiciously.

"Eliott, Commander A... What did you just say?" The eldest lady of the Igor family frowned, "I seem to have heard my name?"

Xia Houyan poked Eldridge very covertly with his hand, and gave a dangerous look called "If you dare to talk nonsense, I'll knock you to death".

Facing Katerina's serious gaze, Eldridge squeezed out a smile that was uglier than crying, and tremblingly said:

"That... that, that is to say, ah, the lord actually wanted to, ah, take the opportunity of St. Augustus's Day, ah, to give you a gift—yes, ah, a surprise... no, I didn't expect it Careful that you overheard me, ah, I can't speak..."

"Really, Elliott?" Katerina looked at the lord lord with a little joy and suspicion.

Eldridge said all the words, so the senior official Xiahou could only nod with a bitter face.

His brain has started to run fast, trying to figure out what kind of gift he should prepare for his sister within a day to be considered qualified.

Katerina smiled lightly, took her brother's arm and was about to speak, when she suddenly heard a loud announcement from the old housekeeper, Mr. Bart Black, in the hall downstairs:
"The Countess of the Stigmata, Miss Isa Sandria is visiting!"

Then, there was Isa's characteristic brisk laughter:
"Eliott! I'm here to look for you! You made me so miserable during the day, you have to make it up to me tonight! Where are you, Elliott? I even brought the quilt and pillow with me!"

Xia Houyan clearly felt that the movement of Katerina's finger that was lightly pressing on his arm suddenly changed into a heart-wrenching pinch with hatred and anger.

"Eliot..." Katerina sneered, "So, this is the surprise you want to give me..."

……

The situation that night can only be described as tragic.

With a professional smirk exclusive to nobles, Katerina politely welcomed Isa, who was holding the quilt, into the study.

The lord followed the two women fearfully the whole time, as humble as a minion.

Then, in the study where there were only three people left, the scolding battle officially broke out.

Under the thrilling onlookers of the lord, Katerina opened fire and launched a comprehensive criticism of Isa from her personal character, family background and figure. There is only one implication: Isa Sandria Miss, take a look at your own virtues, don't keep leaning on my brother, you are not worthy!

As if to increase the psychological damage to Isa, Katerina even gritted her teeth and blushed, counting everyone from Alice Comstock to Lena Leslie to the flower of fertility, Vilf What are the advantages of the lovers of Lord Lord over Isa——

——Thousands of words merged into one sentence: If you, Isa Sandria, are sensible, get out of Igor's house!
But Isa Sandria's response was much simpler:
She just described to Katerina vividly the various details of her playing with the lord during the day today...

The end result was that Katerina ran out of the room without turning her head, her ears blushing.

"Eliott! I won! Yay!" Isa giggled and fell limply into the arms of the lord who was sitting upright.

Xia Houyan said in his heart that no matter who wins between the two of you, I must be the loser——Mother Xipi, there will be a good show in the family from now on...

"Why did you come here suddenly?" Xia Houyan sighed, lowered his head and asked softly.

"Can't I come to my fiancé's house to sleep? Why, after sleeping, I will turn my face and deny anyone?" Yisha put her arms around the neck of the lord, and pecked him on the mouth, "Look, I don't even have a quilt Bring all the pillows!"

"I saw it..." Xia Houyan was heartbroken as if the right wing of the island country had seen the Missouri.

"Also..." Isa pursed her lips and looked serious, "I came here specially to tell you to be careful."

"Are you careful about Katerina?" Xia Houyan said with a sad face.

"Be careful of the federal orcs!" Isa looked up into her fiancé's eyes and said seriously, "Today in the brothel street of the imperial capital, we saw the scene of the city defense army catching spies... and after you left the sect headquarters, I received another According to the information sent by the congregation, these days, there seem to be orcs lurking in the imperial capital all the time..."

Xia Houyan's heart shuddered.

"Eliot, after I received the information, I drove back to find you immediately... I remember your Igor family, it seems that you are going to participate in the St. Augustus Festival?" Isa bit her lip, worried, "I think the secret actions of the Orc Federation must have something to do with this grand ceremony. In addition, Rosario just suffered a defeat in the Eastern Territory, and the imperial capital is full of anger. There may be a big incident at that time..."

"I see..." The lord nodded solemnly.

"Eliot, you must be careful and pay attention to safety..." Isa reached out and stroked his cheek, and smiled charmingly, "Don't let your Isa become a widow..."

"Life and death are fate, wealth and honor are up to heaven, but do your best to obey the destiny." Xia Houyan smiled, "But Isa, don't worry too much, the current Igor family still has some cards after all, and your fiancé's crowbar It's not easy to provoke..."

Isa blushed and snorted without retorting.

Outside the glazed window, dark clouds surged, and the moonlight was gloomy.
