Why did the lord rebel

Chapter 276 Among Us
The entire Kemal Manor fell silent because of Earl Netwan's accusations against Shuangfengling.

The nobles of the empire, who were busy mourning for Master Mephisto before, were like rabbits who heard the footsteps of beasts, not daring to take a breath:
An imperial nobleman publicly accused another lord of being an orc agent...

This thing is fucking too big!

Even those nobles who knew that Earl Netwan had been unhappy with Shuangfengling because of his son's beating, and knew the contradictions between the two sides...

At this moment, they also wanted to turn the big thing into a small thing, and persuaded Earl Netwan to "stop it, Anais"——

After all, once the words "beastman internal response" are uttered, this matter must not be easily settled:

Even though the empire is usually extremely tolerant of discord and struggle between lords, once the interests of human race are involved, there is absolutely no room for the two parties to shake hands and make peace!

There are only two possible outcomes for today's events:

Or, Earl Netwan hammered Frost Maple Ridge to death, proving the fact that Frost Maple Ridge collaborated with the enemy, and then let the young Lord Elliot Igor be beheaded by the executioner like his hapless father;
Or, Frost Maple Ridge has produced enough evidence to prove its innocence, declaring that I, Elliott Igor, did not open... I did not collaborate with the enemy, thus turning Earl Netwan's serious accusation into a joke——

And if this is the case, even for the sake of honor, Frost Maple Ridge has every reason to ask Deadwood Forest to pay a sufficient price—even in extreme cases, Earl Netwan was sentenced to death for "framing an upright nobleman" Forced to commit suicide and apologize, it is completely possible to happen!
——Calling others as traitors because of his own personal grievances, Earl Netwan this time can be regarded as seriously breaking the unspoken rules of the imperial political arena!

For a moment, the imperial nobles in the manor who had good relations with the Deadwood Forest could not help but sweat:

They only hope that Earl Netwan can come up with a real hammer, so as not to be trapped...

Even the nobles of the empire who have nothing to do with their own affairs are already terrified. The Igor family, which is at the center of the storm, of course cannot turn a blind eye to Earl Netwan's accusation:
Even before Earl Netwan's words fell, the fierce men in Shuangfengling were already furious!
Even Master Laurie was so angry that he blew his beard and stared:
Although the lord's quality is indeed a bit poor on weekdays, and the salary he pays is indeed a bit less...

But what he said was not treason!
At least not betrayed now!

So, instead of facing the bleak life of other warriors in Frost Maple Ridge, Eldridge, who was transferred from the Eastern Army, glared at Earl Natwan, glaring blood dripping out of his copper bell-like eyes:

"Fart your mother! Since when did our lord, ah, become a young man?! Show us the evidence, ah!"

After all, Earl Netwan didn't dare to face the famous commander of the Eastern Army. He carefully avoided Eldridge's stare, and shouted with his neck stuck:

"Isn't that evidence?! I have it! You, Shuangfengling, are a group of traitors!"

The crowd was in an uproar.

Chris Mann blushed, and was about to refute, but was stopped by the lord who stretched out his hand.

Xia Houyan narrowed his eyes, and with a blade-like gaze, he swept Earl Netwan from head to toe several times.

Master Laurie knew that if the lord showed such a look, someone would be in trouble.

However, Earl Netwan did not flinch, and responded decisively with the resolute gaze of a revolutionary who exposed a traitor in an old movie.

Of course, due to the worrying appearance of this guy, he doesn't look like the protagonist of the movie, but rather like a provocative local hooligan.

The other party's attitude made Xia Houyan very unhappy.

"Very good. Very good." Xia Houyan clapped his hands slowly, "Mr. Philip Netwan...don't you have evidence of collaborating with the enemy in Shuangfengling? Then show it now, I believe in the nobles of the entire empire Ladies and gentlemen, there must be a fair verdict on this matter... But I want to remind you that if you cannot prove the crime committed by Frost Maple Ridge, then I will ask you for something in order to restore the reputation of the Igor family. "

"What?" Earl Netwan frowned and growled.

"Your head." Xia Houyan raised his palm and swiped fiercely on his neck.

The imperial nobles who watched looked at each other with embarrassing expressions:
Things really got to the point where they couldn't end well!
According to the honor valued by the nobles of the empire, if Shuangfengling can really prove his innocence, then this young Lord Elliott Igor really has the right to ask Earl Netwan to apologize with his death!
But just because of this farce, it is too much to bet on the life of a nobleman!
The old-fashioned imperial nobles wanted to persuade the two of them to take a step back, so that the Lord of Shuangfengling should be more forgiving, and the young people should not be too arrogant;
But they were so frightened by the tense atmosphere between Shuangfengling and Deadwood Forest that they didn't dare to say a word!

Earl Netwan couldn't help swallowing when he heard the black-haired young man's extremely cold and decisive declaration of death;

But immediately, he straightened his neck, waved his fists and cursed angrily:

"Then let's see! Did you, Shuangfengling, take Lao Tzu's head today! Or did we, Deadwood Forest, expose the true face of you, a traitorous little bastard!"

Xia Houyan looked at Earl Netwan coldly, and heard Master Laurie approaching and whispering:

"There must be someone behind this idiot..."

Xia Houyan nodded slightly calmly:

The old and new enmity between Frost Maple Ridge and Withered Wood Forest was nothing more than a slap in the face of his own son. No matter how you say it, Philip Knightwan would not be guilty of framing Frost Maple Ridge at the price of his head...

Behind Netwan, there must be a bigger force instigated to make him so unscrupulous!
Xia Houyan's brain was running fast, Earl Netwan had turned to the surrounding nobles of the empire, and said loudly:
"Everyone! You heard it yesterday at the opening ceremony of the Imperial Capital. This Mr. Elliot Igor and his Frost Maple Ridge hunting team are the hunting vanguards appointed by His Majesty the Emperor. Right or wrong? ?”

Everyone basically knew about this matter, and sporadic echoes sounded from the noble crowd.

Only a few nobles who disliked Netwan could not help but secretly slander:
What is "His Majesty's handpicked appointment", the reason why Shuangfengling became the vanguard was not caused by you, Philip Netwan?

Seeing everyone's response, Netwan became more courageous, and continued to shout loudly:

"But! I ask all the hunting team members who arrived at Kemal Manor to think about it carefully—think about it, when you arrived at Kemal Manor, did you see the shadow of the Frost Maple Ridge team?!"

There was silence among the hunting team.

In this scenario, silence means agreeing to Earl Netwan's questioning.

The faces of the Shuangfengling team members were a little embarrassed.

Their Frost Maple Ridge hunting team was the "pioneer". In order to avoid casualties, they were deliberately led by the lord to make a long detour, and did not arrive near the manor until the middle of the night. Naturally, it was impossible for the other hunting teams who arrived first. see them!
A sinister smile appeared on Earl Netwan's pitted face.He turned around abruptly, pointed at Xia Houyan who was watching coldly, and said angrily:

"Eliot Igor! As the vanguard, you and your Frost Maple Ridge team were the last ones to arrive at Kemal Manor, right?!"

Xia Houyan folded his arms and raised his eyebrows indifferently:
"Yes. So what? We were delayed on the way."

Earl Netwan sneered and said:

"'Delay'? I'm afraid it's not 'other plans'? Ladies and gentlemen, I ask everyone to think about it—the Frost Maple Ridge team arrived a few hours late, and during this period, the federal orcs raided the Imperial Hunting Federation Team! Could it be! Is this a pure coincidence? Please think again, among the territory hunting teams here, which one is the only one that has not suffered half a point of damage?! Which one is the beneficiary after the tragedy tonight? !"

Master Laurie froze.

Earl Netwan raised his arms and roared angrily:
"Eliot Igor! You and your Frost Maple Ridge arrived at Kemal Manor so late. It is clear that you knew about the sneak attack plan of the federal orcs in advance, so you were delaying time in order to protect yourself! You! The traitors, spies, and inner ghosts of the Eastern Federation who betrayed the brothers and sisters of the empire!"
