The next day, Myron Gardner boarded the carriage of the Gleiman family and left Butuya for Lake Town with Chief Ford. Meron was very nervous along the way, and it was not until he left Bairding and entered the land of Arda that he was relieved. Knowing about the vassal's conspiracy, he has now become suspicious. Last night, he tried his best to maintain a normal appearance without losing his composure. Steward Ford kept reassuring him all the way, making him feel a little better.

Entering Huxin Town and coming to the gate of the Lord's Mansion, Myron immediately jumped out of the carriage and almost ran towards the castle. Then he saw Paul waiting in the hall.

"It looks like everything is going well," Paul thought when he saw Myron jumped out of the carriage, and then he was given a big bear hug.

"My good brother, brother, I almost lost sight of you." Melon hugged Paul tightly and burst into tears.

Paul didn't break free immediately, let this friend vent. It was too cruel for a 16-year-old boy to experience his father's first estrangement and then his death, and then the vassal rebellion.

He patted Myron's shoulder and comforted him: "Don't worry, no one can hurt you here."

After McLone vented, Paul asked Manager Ford to find out what had happened last night, and then brought McLone to the study and asked him to explain in detail the process of learning about the conspiracy.

"That night I went back to bed after reviewing the documents they left me in the study, but when I lay down, I found that my amulet was left in the study. It was left to me by my mother, and I wore it to sleep every night. So I went back to the study to get it, and then I heard Chief Angelo and Butler Miles whispering there."

"The door of the study room was not closed. I quietly approached the study room to hear what they would say when I was not there, but I heard some unbearable things."

"First, Butler Miles said, 'The young master has been very well-behaved recently, and has carefully reviewed these documents'."

"Then there was Director Angelo, he laughed a few times in a particularly weird tone, and said, 'It's worth our effort to compile these things', I was very surprised when I heard 'made up' at the time. They all made it up?"

"An Qiluo's next words confirmed my guess. He said, 'If he finds out that we forged these documents so that he can be dragged at home every day, he will go crazy'."

"Afterwards, I heard the steward say in a mocking tone, 'The young master really regards himself as a hardworking and promising lord, so please let him dream for a few more days'."

Speaking of this, Macron was so indignant that he couldn't speak easily, "Paul, do you know how broken my heart was when I heard this sentence? How could they be like this, they are the people I trust the most in my daily life Ah, they... actually teamed up to make fun of me and their lord."

"This... this is really hurtful enough." Paul didn't know how to comfort him.

McLone continued to narrate: "Just when I wanted to come out and accuse them, I heard Angelo say, 'The dream will wake up one day, and when we get that over there, this kid has to go down with him. daddy's dead."

"At the time, I didn't even realize what they were talking about. I only heard the housekeeper say, 'Do I really have to do such a thing? He can be regarded as I watched him grow up'."

"Then An Qiluo snorted coldly and said, 'Have you forgotten how amazing his father was at that time? Over the years, you have also allocated a lot of land for your home. Fortunately, we killed him, otherwise you and I Everyone has to drink Mistral now'."

A horrified expression appeared on Malone's face, he looked at Paul and said, "I understood this sentence at once. It turned out that my father was killed by them at that time. I always wondered how my father was so good at water that he was drowned." Death, now it seems that they made up a lie to cover up the crime of killing the lord. Judging from what they said before, they still wanted to kill me. I was terrified at the time, and I didn’t know how to return to the bedroom.”

"I lost sleep that night. I was afraid that someone would suddenly rush into the bedroom and kill me. After the night of fear and fear passed, I analyzed what they said. It seemed that they were still waiting for a certain opportunity and would not attack me for the time being. Then I I remembered the secret letters we had when we were young, and I took the time to write that letter to you."

After narrating the story, Melon held Paul's hand tightly, and said with tears in his eyes, "Fortunately, you still remember what happened when we were young and sent someone to rescue me. Paul, now I can only trust you alone. You won't leave me alone, will you?"

Paul patted the back of his hand and said, "Why would I abandon my friends? You stay with me first, and when I'm ready, we'll lead the army to settle accounts with those traitors."

He thought for a while and asked again: "Are all your vassals involved in the conspiracy?"

Macron shook his head and said, "I don't know. I've been suspicious of everyone around me since that night. I can only say that the least suspicious person is Baron Andrew, who led Butuya's army to the south not long ago. Participated in countering the rebellion. When the royal commissioner came to recruit troops, the other four unanimously recommended him to lead the army to the south, and Andrew himself was willing~www.wuxiahere.com~ I still trusted them and agreed without hesitation. Now Butuya is left behind. The private soldiers of those four guys are under the control. Andrew is a decent person on weekdays, of course, I know now that people can’t just look at the surface, so I can’t be sure.”

Well, if Andrew didn't participate in the conspiracy, then the remaining four guys took advantage of the royal family's conscription to deliberately dismiss him, and handed over the army directly under the lord to him to take away.

Paul thought for a while, then patted his friend on the shoulder and said, "The journey is tiring, you go and rest first, I'm going to find someone to hold a meeting later, and you can also attend."

He called his servants and took Myron down to rest.

Paul basically decided to start a war. In addition to venting his anger for his friends, he also had an important purpose-the coal and iron mines of Bairding. During the period when Manager Ford was hiring people, Paul had been weighing the pros and cons of the war. After accidentally learning that Bairding had extremely high-yield coal and iron mines, he finally found a reason to convince himself to go to war. Although Alda also produces coal and iron, the more of these two things the better in preparation for industrial development. As for whether Macron agrees to give him some minerals or sell them to himself at a cheaper price, it should be easy to talk about helping him so much.

If it wasn't for coal and iron, would I still stand up for this friend? Paul doubted himself a little.

But he didn't plan to send troops immediately, because it was now July, and there were still many rainy days, which was extremely unfavorable to the gunpowder weapons of Arda's army. He intends to postpone the action until the dry weather in autumn, and at that time the army of Arda can be equipped with more firearms.

Before that, let Melon stay in Huxin Town well. If those traitors come to ask for someone, they should find a reason to refuse.
