Chapter 135 Angry civilians and former nobles kneeling on the ground

Ulysses explained to Felisa: "These will be taken over by the royal family for the time being, and the royal family has not given an answer on what to do in the future."

In fact, even if the royal family confiscated all of Beard's property, it was reasonable. After all, the reason why Beard became a nobleman was because of the gift of the queen. The heir of the title itself is the queen, and Fred inherited the territory and the control of the territory. Quan can't be faulted at all.

Fred glanced at the blocked road and the dense crowd of people, turned around and faced all the civilians who came to watch the excitement, and said, "Everyone, I am Fred, the crown prince of this country, In the name of the next king, I will declare the crimes of the former Earl of Bucks, the Beard family."

Fred used wind magic to spread his voice far away, and he could hear it clearly even from this clock tower.

Beard's residence is in a wealthy area, and there are many high-level nobles living nearby. Felisa believes that these nobles either have servants or are hiding behind a certain window to observe the development of the matter, speculating about the royal family. intentions so that they can respond at any time.

Fred's words were resounding: "Beardley co-operated with the demons to seduce his heart, and committed treason. The evidence is solid! The royal family will take back his title and territory, and he will be hanged tomorrow."

This is the first crime of treason dealt with by the royal family since the founding of the country, and also the first prisoner to be hanged.

The first reaction of everyone present was disbelief, they were stunned in astonishment, and the audience was silent, maybe they were stunned by Fred's words, or maybe they were waiting for Fred's next sentence.

Under the rule of the aristocracy for a hundred years, the common people have formed a default rule: the aristocrats cannot be wrong.Countless people have created "precedents" to prove this point-don't try to challenge or question the authority of the nobles.

As for the "mistakes" made by the nobles against each other, what does that have to do with the common people.

In the silence of the audience, someone suddenly burst into applause: "Your Highness is wise!"

These words seemed to be a switch, turning on all the emotions of the civilians present.

"The scum who colluded with the demons, damn it!"

"Kill, kill him!"

"Kill the children of traitors! They don't deserve to live."

Agitated by the crowd, Mary felt panic. She turned her head shyly and sought support from her brother, only to find that Gray was even more frightened than she was, shivering helplessly, as if she really wanted to hide in the door.

Mary gritted her teeth: This trash.

But she was also afraid of being looked at by so many people with hatred. She felt that this group of people might pounce on her at any time and tear her apart.

She can't stay here anymore, she has to leave.

"Your Highness," she begged in a low voice, "can you let us go?" She was so scared, she had to find a place to hide, and no one would see her.

Fred looked down at her: "I advise you not to."

Mary was shocked, and looked up at Fred with resentful eyes: "Why, you clearly said that we are only punished by cutting off our titles."

Letting Mary kneel in front of so many people and being pointed at is completely public execution for her, and her arrogant self-esteem has already tortured her to death.

Fred glanced at the crowd: "Did you see that, what do you think would happen if there were no knights to stop it?"

What will happen... Mary is no longer an aristocrat, and the common people will no longer have any fear of her now, and the angry commoners will rush to her, and it is possible to kill her.

In the face of life, even self-esteem has to give way.

Mary closed her eyes in despair. She didn't know how long it would take for the crowd to disperse, just as she didn't know what would happen to her in the future.

Fred achieved his goal today. He helped Safi get into the carriage, and Nancy also turned around and got on the horse to open the way for the carriage.

After some tossing, Fred and Safi left in a carriage, but the knights did not completely withdraw, they continued to stop the civilians faithfully, while Beard's family was still kneeling on the ground .

The servants of the other nobles knew that this was the end of the matter, and the royal family had already shown their intentions and handling methods, so they had to go back and report to their masters.

A small number of people have left, but most people have not left.

It seems that the anger towards the nobles can be vented unscrupulously at this time. Although they can only curse verbally, this does not prevent the common people from being emotional at this time.

"Who was the first to speak?"

Although it was far away, the first person who yelled was not far from the bell tower. Although the voice was small, Felisa's wind magic was also considered a small success, so her hearing power improved a lot, and she heard him. shout out.

Ulysses smiled. "I don't know what you're talking about."

Forget it, Felisa didn't get to the bottom of it. Even if the first person to speak was not arranged by Ulysses or the royal family, there must be someone else. After all, they need someone to control the atmosphere of the audience.

This kind of small means is irrelevant, Felicia cares more about another thing.

"Is it really necessary to live and die like this between the human race and the demon race?"

Ulysses and Azarez looked at her at the same time.

The girl's eyes drooped slightly, with a bit of sadness and sadness: "Is there really no way to sit down and have a good talk?"

For the first time, Ulysses looked at Felisa with a scrutinizing gaze: "I thought you would be the kind of person who most wanted the demons to die."

Asalez's hand was clenched suddenly, forcibly suppressing the surging emotions.

He didn't know what would happen to him if Felisa admitted what Ulysses said, would he suffer, would he feel cold, or would he have darker thoughts.

No one paid attention to his inner turmoil.

Felisa knew why Ulysses would ask such a question. Although there was something hidden about her father getting the title, she always said that he got the title of baron because of his outstanding performance in the confrontation with the demons. , Their family's territory is also on the border, and there will be friction with the border of the demons all the year round, so no matter how you look at it, Felisa should be very hated and hostile to the demons.

The Demon Race and the Human Race have been stalemate for many years, and everyone is secretly accumulating strength and waiting for an opportunity to disrupt the stability of the other country.

"I don't think so." Felisa sighed. "My father doesn't think so either."

Hate, logically speaking, you should hate, but no matter how much you hate, life still has to go on, you have to have everything, no matter how much hatred, in the busy and trivial life, it seems to gradually become dull, not to mention her Her father led the private soldiers on the territory, and did not allow any demons to set foot on their territory, and all his actions were limited to a small area of ​​the border, so she would occasionally think that such a stalemate is meaningful Well, it is obviously impossible for either side to make a real move. After all, no one is sure that they can completely win the opponent. Even if they can win, they will definitely suffer heavy casualties.It can be said that the current situation is very difficult. No one is willing to make peace first, and no one is willing to make a move. Only her father suffers, and she will be burned by those small frictions from time to time.
