Chapter 263: From Dusk to Late Night
Semir clearly hinted that she already knew what Faust was doing, was this a frank forgiveness or a warning of dissatisfaction? If it is really the Queen's expert to investigate Faust's whereabouts, what is the reason? Should I care about him, value him or guard against him?
But if Samir is hostile, it is impossible to say it face to face. Is it a kind reminder? In today's situation, Faust's reputation and reputation are very important to unite the hearts of Assyrians. Doesn't the Queen want him to make any scandals? It should be like this, this is the most reasonable explanation!
If judging from absolute reason, Faust should not see Magan tears at this time, but he couldn't help it. Faust knew that Magan's tears came out of the jail and could not return to Hisham's house. Instead, he could only go to the courtyard where they met. So Faust disguised himself and left the temple hurriedly in the afterglow of the setting sun. There.
After so many days in prison, I don't know what happened to Ma Gan's tears? He should comfort her and apologize to her. In a sense, it was him and his identity that brought this disaster to her.
Suspicious that Queen Semir sent a master to spy on him secretly, Faust thought about it, and carefully watched the pedestrians around him. He disguised himself as he hid his face, and began to detect the magic to observe the surrounding movement at any time. No one can follow him and he will not be noticed by him.
No tracers were found along the way, and even if there were, the best great wizard in the empire had some way to get rid of it. The timing of his visit was very coincident. Magan's tears had just been released, and she rushed to the courtyard where she often met with Faust. In the future, she could only go there.
Faust walked by a shop, turned around the corner, and entered a quiet alley, just looking at the back of Magan's tears. Magan was in shabby clothes, with a few dry blades of grass stuck to her hair, reaching for the door. Just then, a person suddenly emerged from the opposite corner, rushing to Magan with tears and yelling, "You shameless bitch, I want your life!"
Faust had seen this person many years ago, when he was a young and sturdy military officer, but now he is obviously blessed, with a messy beard, wearing a stiff waistband and a short sword, he has been floating Hisham was injured by Shide.
Why didn't Hessme die and would appear here? In fact, Hisham's family did not receive a formal notice from the Assyrian Army, but only heard the wounded soldiers returning from the battlefield-Hisham has been killed. He lost his horse and fell into the enemy line in the chaos. Everyone thought he was dead. When the army was defeated, everything was chaotic. He did not expect that he survived.
Faust sent someone to say hello, pay his respects to his family and post his title, but the man was not dead. This misunderstanding is a bit misleading, and it may be because of this incident that it has attracted the attention of the military department or the Empress Semir.
As soon as Hisham returned to Neville, he heard about his mother's bad news. The family told him that Magan's tears had given his ill mother a poisonous medicine. Hisham couldn't believe this was true. Why did Magan Tears do it? Another kind neighbor told him the latest gossip-Ma Gan tears have a lover outside, and often go out for meetings.
It must have been the man who had instructed Magan to kill Hisham's mother with poison, not only in retaliation for her original abuse, but also for the purpose of escaping from Hisham's house and elope with the man. Because people thought Hisham was dead, if his mother died, the servants of the family would find their way out.
The sorrowful Hisham rushed to the house immediately to inquire about the case, but he had just met the investigator and had not had time to ask about the detailed interrogation process before hearing that Magan was acquitted.
Hisham rushed to the jail immediately to find Magan's tears, and he could not wait to kill her with his own hands! If he still had some affection for Magan's tears at that time, it is now hated. In Hisham's view, he was so angry that he pulled out his sword and was almost imprisoned. He rescued her from the fire pit of the brothel and brought him home, and even said he would marry her.
But Ma Gan tears revenge, not only seduce the man outside, but also killed his mother under the encouragement of that man! By the time he returned on the battlefield, his home was ruined. Grief and resentment have overwhelmed Hisham's reason. He is going to find Magan's tears to settle the account, and take out the man, so that the couple of men and women get retribution!
His anger in anger still kept a trace of soberness. He knew that it was impossible to return to the original home after tears from Magan. If she wanted to find a place to hide, she must go to the man. This was what he tracked. clue.
Hisham hung his sword sharply, and quietly followed Magan's tears from the door of the prison to this quiet alley, and finally knew the destination of Magan's tears. This should be the man's home! When Magan tears were about to open the door, Hisham finally rushed out, and he wanted to twist Magan's tears on the spot and rush in, and interrogate the dogs and men.
Hisham had never dreamed of it, Faust happened to be on the other side of the alley, and he began to detect magic.
Faust saw Hisham rushing to Magan tears fiercely, but he couldn't help feeling a little flustered, because the distance was too far, and there was exactly Magan tears between him and Hisham. Faust was afraid of accidentally hurting Magan's tears, so he only used the simplest method to perform the elemental magic of air, and an invisible power wrapped around Hism's body like a whirlwind, and rolled him out.
Fortunately, it was Faust, otherwise it would be too late for another person to stop Hisim's murder. Faust knew that Hesham was a sixth-level samurai, and the incident was sudden, so he used a lot of power. Hisham didn't even pull out his sword, so he flew out in the air, his head hit the corner of the alley, and he fell without a hum.
Magan's tears didn't see Faust on the far side of the alley, Heathm rushed over and flew out suddenly, and she screamed in horror. Faust was about to pass, but he suddenly noticed that a large group of people came from the other side of the alley, and a voice asked, "What happened! Who is on the ground? How to carry a sharp weapon in the emperor!"
Hearing this voice, Faust was taken aback. The visitor was the guard of the palace, the great warrior Klipps! Recently, because of the frontline defeat, there were rumors in the city of Nevei, and there were so many soldiers coming back, so the security of the imperial capital was very tense. Samir sent the palace guards to cooperate with the garrison to strengthen the patrol force. Cripps was also responsible for the patrol One of the main generals.
How could it be so coincident that Cripps led the Guard's tour of the city just here? If it were an ordinary guard, using Faust's means, it would be possible to solve the problem here without leaving a trace, but with Krips on the scene, Faust would not be able to do it.
Klipps is certainly not Faust's opponent if he blatantly appeared, but Faust was disguised, and he could not cover up what happened just now without revealing his identity, such as patrolling all The soldiers were stunned to take away Magan's tears, or to remove Hisham without leaving a trace. All this happened so suddenly that Faust was too late to react.
Assaulting the patrol guards in the imperial capital was a crime of conspiracy. If Faust and Cripps acted, I am afraid that even this street would be demolished. Such a big movement cannot fail to reveal his identity. Faust had another option, which was to walk over publicly and explain to Cripps what had just happened, but he hesitated.
The imperial chief high priest, why do you pretend to be here? What's going on with this girl and him, and why did Faust take a shot at Hesham? Faust could not explain it anyway. If everything was pointed out, this would be the most absurd scandal in the imperial capital. It would hurt the prestige and reputation of the Magi, and even affect the Imperial Temple. Prestige.
Faust was so hesitant that Cripps had rushed into the alley with a team of guards. Someone leaned over to check Hisham's condition, and Cripps was already drinking Magan tears. Just at this moment, the melodious bells suddenly came from the direction of the palace. The rhythm was very special and dense, and they knocked a lot.
A patrol guard asked Cripps, "Sir, what's the bell?"
Cripps replied: "That was a signal that Her Majesty summoned all the ministers in the Imperial City and rushed to the Royal Palace to discuss matters. It seems that something important will happen, or His Majesty has an important order to be promulgated. Our duty is to inspect City, honestly continue to inspect the movements in the city, just don't make mistakes, everyone must be extra vigilant. "
Faust disappeared, looked at the alley, and finally turned around and rushed to the palace. The signal from the bell is urgent, there must be important military affairs, but this time! But the bell gave Faust the best reason and excuse for hesitation. He did not intentionally leave, but had to leave under the call of the bell.
History seems to have gone through another cycle, when Faust wounded in a brothel and left quietly. No one knew his identity, and couldn't trace the whereabouts of the perpetrators, leaving only the lonely and helpless Magan tears. Today, he flew Hessm out and slammed into the corner, just as the patrol guard came, Faust quietly left again.
It was dusk, and the sky was gradually darkening, and the lights of the stars were shining in the city.
...
Ministers above the deputy chiefs of the various departments of the Royal Capital have rushed to the palace hall. Everyone asked what happened, but no one knew. When they saw Faust coming, they asked the sage master, and Faust was confused. At this time, Samir finally walked into the hall surrounded by the housekeeper and boarded the throne, and specially gave Faust a seat on the left side of the throne of the empress.
Queen Samir announced two things. One was to issue new coins at Faust's suggestion to resolve the imperative of imperial finances. The second thing surprised all the ministers. Queen Semir ordered the son of Sinach to be supervised by the State, and Faust was appointed Minister of Regency. As for Her Majesty, Her Majesty had to leave the Emperor to inspect the border and rectify armaments.
Now that Hati is gone, the Assyrian Empire is surrounded by Poz, and the next battle will sooner or later. No one knows when Cyrus will attack the Assyrian homeland, but he cannot stand still and must prepare early. At this time, Queen Semir personally visited the border and organized the legions after the defeat. This was the last resort to boost morale and restore the situation.
Samir is going to go to the border in person, leaving the son of Sinach in jail, and ordering Faust as regent, just in case. If there is any contingency in Samir, state affairs will be given to Faust and will be succeeded by Faust. In today's situation, if Semir is not present, Faust may usurp power and take over the position.
But Faust didn't make any sense, and Semir didn't worry about it. If even Her Majesty had an accident, and the Assyrian Empire was about to be destroyed, who would usurp the throne to become a dying king? As soon as he ascended the throne, he will be destroyed! If Faust really had the ability to save the Assyrian Empire, then even if he usurped the throne, no one would care about it.
Faust's status and glory reached the pinnacle of life, and the ministers expressed their blessings and praises to Her Majesty, and congratulations and admiration to the Sage National Teacher College.
On such an important occasion, Faust didn't keep his heart. He had no intention of listening to the praises of the ministers. He always thought about Magan's tears, and wondered what happened to her? He even hoped that the dictatorship that determined the fate of the empire would come to an end soon, so as to send someone to inquire about the situation of Magan's tears, and if there was anything, try to solve it privately. In short, she could not let her suffer again.
According to common sense, Semir gave him such an important appointment. After the DPRK dismissal, he should stay and meet the Queen alone to discuss important state affairs arrangements. But Faust did not do so. As soon as the discussions broke out, he wanted to leave the palace immediately with the ministers, but the housekeeper stopped him-Her Majesty would call on the Sage Master.
Faust came to a small hall in the apse. At this time, the night was deep, and Samir ordered his internal servants to retreat. Then he said quietly, "Faust, are you the sage master I know? Is that the person whom the Assyrians admire and love? I want to entrust you with the whole country, and you do n’t even have to ask me a question after the talks, or even come to see me alone, you have to leave so hurry go?"
Faust quickly got up and pleaded guilty: "Please, Your Majesty, forgive me for my mistakes. It is inevitable that I have been worried recently. After hearing about His Majesty's latest decision, I want to go back and make arrangements first. It is dark today and I plan to come back tomorrow morning See you, Your Majesty. "
Samir waved his hand: "Please sit down and talk, I know you have something in your heart. But in any case, don't forget your responsibility. Like me, I didn't want to take the throne at first, but in this position, I just You have to shoulder your responsibilities. Faust, are you worried about the girl named Magan Tears? "
Faust was taken aback. He had just sat down, and involuntarily rose from his chair again: "Your Majesty, how did you know?"
Semil threw a roll of papers and shook his head: "You don't have to ask any more. I have ordered the latest case to be reported to the palace urgently. The man named Hisham died, and Magan was brought back to the palace with tears already on the spot Plead guilty and confess that she killed him! ... As for why I know this, I don't have to conceal it now, because you are very important to this empire, and of course I will care about your situation and be willing to share your concerns. "
Faust opened the paper and finally knew what happened after he left.
Hisham was dead. Although Faust didn't want to kill him, the power used in anxiety was too strong. When the warrior flew out, he hit his head in the corner and died on the spot. He managed to pick up a life in the army, but when he returned to the imperial capital, he first learned of his mother's bad news, and then lost his life inexplicably.
Just as the ministers discussed in the palace, Cripps brought Hissme's body and Magan's tears to the officials, and called the sheriff for interrogation overnight.
Although Magan's tears were weak by nature, she was not stupid. When she awoke, she realized what had happened. It must be Faust who secretly shot Heath, but left due to the presence of the patrol guard, which was inconvenient to reveal his identity. At that time, the bells of the palace were urgently summoning the ministers.
Magan didn't say Faust's name. She confessed to Krips by pushing Heathham by herself. As a result, Hemsham leaned on the ground and bumped his head against the wall. How could a level six warrior such as Hisham be overthrown by a weak woman like Ma Gan tears? He was wounded on the battlefield not long ago and hasn't healed. This is also entirely possible.
It is also very easy to explain why there was a conflict between the two, because Hisham's family accused Magan of killing his mother with tears. That bottle of medicine was indeed given to his mother by Tears of Magan, and if taken improperly it would indeed be life-threatening. Hisham returned, of course, to find Magan tears and ask clearly.
The sheriff also called Hisham's neighbourhood neighbors to inquire, but many people said that Magan tears "betrayed" Hisham and had a lover outside. And Hisham went to Magan Tears to get the man out and ask him clearly, and the yard was probably the place where Magan Tears and her lover met. Some people also asked the sheriff, why was Magan tearless?
The answer of the sheriff was naturally Faust's saying that the bottle of medicine was the magic medicine that Magan Tears had just heard when she prayed in the temple and was given to her by hand. The previous case has been closed, so there is no need to entangle any more. Today, only today's murder case is tried.
Today's case happened in the capital of the emperor, under the eyes of Lord Cripps. Everyone has been alarmed and must be interrogated. In fact, according to the confession, there is nothing to judge. Magan is guilty of killing people with tears, not to mention she killed a soldier who returned from a life of nine on the battlefield. In addition, the Ministry of Emperor has just issued an order, and Hisham officer is reinstated.
In the past, Hessim lost his post just because of Magan's tears. Now it is because of Magan's tears that he even lost his life. The severe punishment of Magan's tears is not enough to anger the civilians! It was a felony for civilians to kill nobles, not to mention that Ma Gan tears had been a lowly prostitute, and had caused so many disasters to the Hisham family.
