Sophia still had a look of surprise on her face when she was pushed to the ground.?        

She never expected Ding Mu to treat her so roughly, and hit the pillars of the porch, and then Sophia, who was rolling to the corner, made a sound in shock, but her screams were instantly overwhelmed by the screams of the crowd around her.

Ding Mu didn't know if the thrown dagger hit the target. Although he also learned to throw the flying knife with Sophia during this period, he might indeed need talent. In short, no brave Bohemian dared to serve him as a target for practice so far.

But that was enough. His sudden action obviously disturbed the assassin. The sudden riot caused people to scream and panic. Just as the shouting sounded, the crossbow arrow that was originally aimed at the street was already panicked because the shooter was caught off guard and didn't know where to fly. When the wooden stairs above his head had just sounded the rushing footsteps, the Spanish guards who came to rush through the crowd when they heard the news had pressed Ding Mu to the ground. As several feet stepped on him, more guards pushed away the at a loss and rushed towards the second floor.

Ding Mu's face was pressed tightly to the ground, and the dust was suffocating. A sharp sword was placed on his neck. The cold blade stimulated the skin to make bumps, and his throat could be cut off at any time.

"Ah~" Sophia shouted and wanted to rush over but was pushed away by a guard rudely. It was obvious that in their opinion, this Bohemian woman was not a big deal.

The assassin obviously had prepared a way out for a long time. Although Ding Mu had destroyed the operation and the Spanish guards were not slow, they rushed to the second floor and got nothing except the empty rooms and the windows leading to the back street.

A pair of exquisite cowhide boots fell in front of Ding Mu. He barely raised his head, but could only see a few buttons connected to the mouth of the boot and the legs of the trouser.

"Don't be too rude," a slightly exotic voice came, and then Ding Mu was suddenly grabbed by someone and pulled up from the ground. "Sir, I want to see him."

It was only then that Ding Mu saw the man clearly.

This is a middle-aged man in his thirties. What impressed Ding Mu was the two strokes on his lips that were obviously often decorated, with a slightly curled beard, and a very exotic style on his head, which seemed to be a huge shower hat that he had just worn from the bathroom.

The hat obviously used a lot of cloth, so that because of the weight of the hat, it could only hang softly behind the head, Ding Mu couldn't help but think of a bad thing.

This man's clothes were also very strange. The front panels on the left and right were not aligned, but were staggered, and even the hem of the top was uneven, as if he was anxious to go out and buttoned the wrong button.

The guards pushed Ding Mu and followed the man through the crowd and came to the street. At this time, the Spanish guard had completely blocked the street. The people around him were talking nervously, and they saw another whisper in the crowd.

"Look, Bohemian!"

"Does the pagans want to assassinate Lord Gomez?"

"They should be hanged."

"No, they don't have a tripod, they should set up a fire, just like the Queen in Castilla."

Listening to people's comments, Ding Mu was actually very nervous. He knew that warning was a risk, but he had to take a chance.

After all, when he chose to come to Palermo, he never thought of going to stay in this era in a daze.

In addition, the crossbow arrow was also entangled with Ding Mu's thoughts. He could not forget that the beginning of all this was because Kunto brought him out of Saint Saibalon. The crossbow arrow with the same style as the short crossbow used by Kunto was the same as his instructions before his death, which made Ding Mu decide to take the risk to call the police.

Through the wall of men composed of guards, Ding Mu was taken to Ton Gomez.

The Palace Master Julian Don Gomez of the Kingdom of Sicily is a fat man with a low figure and a blessed body. Although it is difficult for people of his age to maintain their body shape, in fact, according to some rumors, the Palace Master is completely because he likes to eat various sweets.

But in general, Gong Xiang is still a good man who is recognized as having fairness and noble sentiment. When the king and his wife are conquering each other with their relatives and pure enemies, Gong Xiang loyally fulfilled his duties.

Don Gomez had already got off the horse, and it was obviously unwise to ride on the horse at this time. If you look closely, you will find that because of your obesity, the armor that Gomez should have worn during the parade was actually just sewn with a few larger armor leaves on the outside of a large coat. Although this armor looks majestic from a distance, it actually does not work. It can even pierce the thin armor with a spear.

"Let me see who disturbed my parade," Although he encountered a sudden accident, Gomez was not panicked or too angry. He looked at Ding Mu for a while before saying to the man before, "What's going on, Auburns, is this a child?"

"A very dangerous child," the man named Oppens handed the guard to find the dagger that Ding Mu threw and another dagger found from him to Gomez to show "Bohemia."

"I was rescued by a Bohemian?" Gomez looked at Ding Mu unexpectedly and waved to the side.

A soldier sent a bloody crossbow arrow up.

"A bad guy was shot in the arrow, but looking at this, I really want to thank this Bohemian."

"Armored head?" Oppens showed a slightly exaggerated surprise and uneasiness on his face. He held Gomez's hand and kissed him hard. "My lord, this must be God and Jesus Christ are blessing you. This Easter is destined to be your lucky day."

"It should be said that there is a guardian angel protecting me," Gomez said, frowned. "But why do you still hold him and let him go and I want to reward this young man," he said, and showed a slightly joking smile. "Although he is a bohemian."

"Sorry, I'm not a bohemian," Ding Mu felt it was time for him to say something. He risked that he might even lose his head, not just to get a reward and eat and drink. "Although you have a noble status, I still hope you apologize to me."

Gong Xiang's plump and round face showed a look of surprise. He looked at Oppens next to him with some surprise, and then looked at Ding Mu again: "Your courage is indeed not small. No wonder you dare to destroy the conspiracy to assassinate me. Then tell me who you are. But I warn you that if you lie, you will lose your head."

Try to recall some descriptions that I didn't know from that, and then Ding Mu left his left hand and half a circle of his right hand, then swayed his arm and bowed, "Alexander Juliant Gombrey, from Crete, is willing to serve you."

Gomez looked at the young man bowing in front of him with some surprise, and then he suddenly asked the follower beside him with no idea: "Who can tell me where this little guy learned this strange etiquette?"

After hearing what Gomez said, Ding Mu suddenly remembered that his way of ceremonies had not yet appeared in this era, and it would not become popular in nearly 20 years.

In desperation, Ding Mu had to deliberately smile bitterly: "Sir, I am a Roman."

"Oh~" Gomez's face immediately showed an understanding expression, and the expression with the meaning of "so that's it", reminded Ding Mu of the way he looked when the British heard that the other party was French.

"Okay, kid, I'm willing to apologize if this happens," Gomez nodded to Dingmu. "Come on, go with Oppens, let him find you a place to clean up first, and then I'll meet you."

Ding Mu knew that it was almost time to step down, and what he would have had next was not his business.

Suddenly, a familiar shout of "Ah!" sounded from a distance from the crowd. Ding Mu turned his head and saw Sophia who was blocked by the guards and waving her arms desperately towards him.

At this moment, the panic look on the girl's face deeply pierced Ding Mu's heart. He instinctively raised his hand to respond, but in the end he still put down his arm.

After looking at Sophia deeply again, Ding Mu shook his head slightly at her with an invisible movement, then turned around and walked forward with the guards.

Sorry, Sophia, I can't take you away, at least not now!

Sophia's swinging arms were fixed in the air, and her face showed a look of surprise. She didn't understand why Ding Mu didn't respond to her, and why she turned around and left after seeing her.

At this moment, the 12-year-old girl seemed to have become the orphan who was lonely because of her father's expulsion. However, this time, the person who left her was not forced to do so, but ruthlessly abandoned her!

The crowd around her began to disperse in chaos because of the lifting of the blockade. Only Sophia stood in the middle of the road. At this moment, she seemed to have been abandoned by the whole world.

The Sicily Palace does not occupy a large area. Compared with the palaces in other city-states that are proud of accumulating luxury and art condensing, the Sicily Palace shows more simplicity, ancientness, and solemnity.

Due to historical reasons, the palace made of various styles is surrounded by a very thick high wall, with obviously Arabic-style walls and rows of black perforations excavated later, proving that this palace also has the important task of defending against foreign enemies.

In fact, the Sicily Palace has indeed experienced more than once of war, the most recent one was the riots in the Sicily Night Prayer incident, which was born two centuries ago on the Easter Night in 1282.

It was after that incident that the Kingdom of Aragon took the opportunity to drive away the Normans who occupied Sicily at that time and became the master of Sicily.

Easter not only has a completely different meaning for Sicilians, but it has actually become a special day with some taboo in mind.

This kind of Easter with trepidation has been more than two hundred. Until 1496, many people remembered the night of turmoil, restless, bloody and killing two centuries ago.

The Sicily Palace Prime Minister Julian Don Gomez is one of these people.

When Ding Mu followed Osborne's entourage into the palace, he saw a large number of soldiers who had gathered in the palace garden and the corridors on both sides. Regarding the unexpected accident, Don Gomez was obviously different from the calmness he showed in front of everyone.

From the faces of the soldiers who were faintly murderous intent, Ding Mu seemed to have smelled the bloody smell of the Sicily night prayer incident a long time ago.

Osborne arranged Ding Mu in a large room and hurriedly left. Seeing the two guards outside the door, Ding Mu could probably guess that he had actually been monitored.

However, Don Gomez was not a harsh person. Soon someone brought Ding Mu wine and a plate of finely sliced ​​mutton. This meal might be his last supper. Ding Mu looked around casually, and soon he found a "coincidence" that he didn't know if it was a coincidence.

There was a large oil painting hanging on the walls of the room. Ding Mu soon discovered that he had seen this collection of masterpieces that could be regarded as a Norman Palace in later generations.

This is a painting full of realisticism. A woman obviously dressed in a costume of centuries ago, crawling on the ground with a painful expression. Her arm stretched forward seemed to be accusing her of misfortune. Just beside the woman, a man was angrily stabbing his sword into the chest of a wandering Norman. Around these people, there were more Sicilians who seemed to be showing anger and humiliation on their faces. In front of them, a large number of Norman corpses deliberately dyed black fell to the ground.

This is the famous Sicilian late prayer incident, a terrible massacre caused by the insult of a Sicilian woman who was participating in a late prayer parade on the streets of Palermo on Easter night in 1285.

In that massacre, including the guy named Duane who caused a big disaster because he couldn't control his belt, dozens of French people were cut into pieces by the angry Sicilian people at that time, and then the turmoil swept across Palermo until the whole of Sicily.

In the end, the riot became targeting all the Normans who ruled Sicily at that time.

That unrest changed the rule of a dynasty over Sicily, so what will happen today bring about?

Ding Mu took a sip of wine, which made his body slightly warmer, and also made his mind turn faster.

Now he has entered the palace as he wishes, but this is still too far from the so-called success.

The crossbow arrow always lingers in Ding Mu's mind, and he remembers the short crossbow he hid in the Gypsy camp.

Before coming out, in order to ensure that Sophia hid the short crossbow somewhere outside the caravan so that it would not be discovered.

If Gomez sent someone to the camp to search, as long as Sophia didn't tell her, she would not be revealed.

But will Sophia understand what he is thinking? Ding Mu is a little worried.

He could not forget Sophia's disappointed look, but he really couldn't take her away at this time.

The door opened and Osborne walked in.

What surprised Ding Mu was that Osborn, who was like a confidant of the palace prince, was actually a tailor.

This is probably why his clothes look very unique.
