Witch Hunter from Entry to Unemployment

Chapter 78 The Positive Side

"On such an important day as the blessing ceremony, I naturally have to check it out myself. Speaking of which, I haven't seen Miss Iris in the past few days. Is there anything that the Augustman family needs to be busy with?"

There was a hearty smile on Linna's face. Although she was a woman, her carefree personality was very masculine.

These words sound like they are concerned about Iris, but Iris is very clear that this is actually asking her whereabouts these days.

Her Royal Highness Lin Na's ruthlessness is well known in the aristocratic circle. Many families were caught by her because of some business, and she paid a big price.

"This... I don't know what to say."

Iris smiled wryly, and didn't know how to explain to His Highness that she was no longer the deacon of the Augustman family.

"I don't know who is the big man in the Augustan family in the carriage. Can you come down and see?"

Seeing that Iris hesitated and hesitated to speak, Linna turned her attention to the carriage.

"I don't dare to be a big man. I call Grand Duke Moqier uncle, and I can barely be regarded as a young master of the Augustman family."

The door curtain was lifted, and Li Xun took Luo Erwei's hand and walked out of the carriage.

uncle?

Linna was slightly taken aback, looking at the strange young man in front of her, thinking when did Moqier have such a nephew, was it the young man from the family territory who came to participate in the blessing ceremony?

As an extraordinary person, she has been away from the noble circle for a long time, otherwise she would not have known about the return of a sinner 18 years ago to the capital.

In today's aristocratic circle, the discussion on Li Xun is quite heated.

It was a knight on the side who approached and whispered '18 years ago', and Linna reacted belatedly.

"Are you the sinner who forced Lord Rosalind to go away?"

As soon as the words came out, the atmosphere at the scene seemed a little awkward.

Li Xun's expression looked a little weird, he looked at Iris beside him, and the expression on the latter's face also looked a little embarrassed.

Teacher Rosalind's popularity in the capital is really high, so this is another admirer of hers?
"I think there is one thing that needs to be reminded, the third princess. If he is a sinner, then his destination should be a prison. I am standing there well now, so don't put the name of a sinner on my head casually. Or, His Highness felt that there was something wrong with the punishment 18 years ago, and this time he came here to arrest me and put me in jail?"

"I was just a kid 18 years ago, who knows what happened then."

"That's a coincidence, I am also a child, who knows what happened in the first place?"

Li Xun shrugged his shoulders, and stared at the princess without turning his eyes. The latter seemed to realize that what he just said was very rude, but he didn't mean to apologize.

She naturally didn't have much affection for Li Xun, a sinner, but obviously she didn't have much affection for those who forced Rosalind away back then.

"Lord Rosalind lost a lot because of this in 18 years. Now that you have returned to the Star City, you have come back as the young master of the Augustman family. Don't you think about letting Lord Rosalind come back and help her regain what she lost? everything of!"

"Your Highness, that, shall we check first, so as not to delay other people's schedules."

A knight beside him spoke awkwardly, wanting to change the subject. After all, 18 years ago, the royal family was also one of the forces that forced Rosalind away.

It's been so long, why bring it up again.

"I will. I will make those who have wronged the teacher before pay the price."

"You better be so."

At this point in the conversation, there was obviously no place to continue the conversation. The third princess led a few knights to check whether there were any prohibited items on the carriage.

"Speaking of which, what are the so-called prohibited items?"

Seeing the knights busy, Li Xun also curiously asked Iris beside him.

"Some kingdoms expressly prohibit the circulation of drugs that will cause great harm to the body and mind of ordinary people, and items related to extraordinary powers are also prohibited from being sold by nobles without permission. In addition, the kingdom also attaches great importance to human rights and strictly prohibits Trading, lynching and physical assault of domestic servants is strictly prohibited.”

"The last point, I'm afraid it will be difficult to achieve, right?"

"As long as it's your wish, then there's no problem."

"It's not because you love me, but in the end it will become your love. After all, it's for money to go to a noble's house as a servant. A helpless servant who wants to bring down a noble is not hitting a stone with a pebble? More Not to mention, there are people like you, Iris, who were sold to noble families since you were a child, isn't it forbidden to trade human beings, what are you guys like?"

Noticing the contradictions in this, Li Xun seemed a bit incomprehensible.

"The trading of human beings is prohibited, and what is prohibited is private human trading. Nobles need people, and some people take risks, plunder villages, and then sell the plundered people to nobles. Under the witness of the kingdom's law, sign the contract with free will , there is no problem with selling yourself as a servant. Moreover, this servant and the noble are also in an employment relationship, and the kingdom will protect their human rights."

"As for my situation, my parents have too many children. If I hadn't sold me, maybe I would have starved to death and froze to death. I don't blame them. The Augustman family is also very good to me. His childhood was very happy, and his life was unimaginable for ordinary people.”

Listening to Yuanwei's words, Li Xun couldn't say a word for a while.

He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell why.

Because he is now the owner of Iris and has vested interests, no matter what he says will appear hypocritical.

Is it possible to pretend to be generous and tell Iris that you are free?
If I really said that, I'm afraid the girl would just kneel down in fear and ask what I did wrong, why did the master drive her away.

A little helpless, but also a little distressed, all Li Xun could do was to gently hug the shoulder of the maid next to him, and gently stroke her soft hair.

Iris blinked, not quite understanding what happened to her young master all of a sudden.

"Young master, in fact, most nobles are not as bad as you think. Everyone believes in and maintains the teachings of the goddess, and will not do such a thing that tramples on human rights. A few nobles who act recklessly will also be judged by justice !"

"Well, this is probably the positive side of religion."

Li Xun suddenly felt that religion is actually quite good, the existence of religion restrains nobles.

As for the priests, their every move is seen by the gods, and they will naturally abide by the rules more than the nobles.
