Yes, yes. When Zhandi couldn't help nodding, Guan Heng turned his face and asked Herad: Allow me to take the liberty of asking you, do you have anything to do with the guard group directly under the Kauru royal family?

Yes, I am indeed a gold medal bodyguard of the royal guard group. Herard nodded and said.

As expected, it seems that the previous guess was correct. Guan Heng's heart moved when he heard this: So, you came to protect the convoy going to Haoyue City to get married, and it was under the order of the royal family.

Er, no. At this time, Herard shook his head slightly: Neither the royal family nor other official forces knew that Zhandi and I left the royal capital alone and secretly protected the escorting convoy along the way.

Hearing this, Guan Heng frowned: Are you saying that following and protecting the escorting convoy was not an order from the royal family, but his own personal behavior?

Yes. Seeing that Guan Heng was a little confused, Herard, a strong man in gray cloak, explained: Miss Yetelina's father is a royal lord. I was a guard at the lord's house twenty years ago.

I only entered the Royal Guards Corps through your recommendation, so I always remember your lordship's kindness to me.

In the past few years, the Lord offended some evil people in the royal family and was dismissed from office. He himself also died of illness in prison a few months ago.

Herard sighed and said: Originally, the lord's daughter, Miss Yetelina, was sent to the bitter cold land in the north of the country by those bad guys and demoted as a slave. However, several of the lord's friends and I would not have seen her suffer like this.

It was a bitter crime, so I spent a lot of money on it.

After that, he finally bribed several nobles to intercede in front of the king, and instead betrothed Yetelina to the bastard son of Grand Duke Demachi as his wife. This is already ten times better than becoming a slave. Herard said: But I am in the royal capital.

I heard that someone was going to do harm to Yetelina, so I decided to protect her convoy all the way to Haoyue City.

Well, there is also this kid. Herard patted Zhandi on the shoulder: He is my colleague in the Royal Guards Corps. He happened to be returning to visit relatives, and he was also going to Haoyue City, so he went with me on the road.

It would be nice to have someone to take care of me.

So that's it. Guan Heng nodded: Then I basically understand. So, what did you say about Marquis Diharo when you left in the dense forest yesterday?

Alas, that's the case. Herard sighed and said: In fact, it was the Marquis de Haro who framed the Lord and was dismissed from office and imprisoned. He was over forty years old and had many wives and concubines, but he persisted in his evil intentions and repeatedly proposed to Yetelina.

, and was finally sternly rejected.

Diharo, a villain who is narrow-minded and sinister, framed the Lord because his marriage proposal was rejected. He also sent people to intercept the wedding party and Yetelina on the way.

My dear. Guan Heng muttered in a low voice: This grandson of Di Haro is really ruthless. You must be careful when you meet him in the royal city in the future.

After a while, the three of them carried the last villager into the room and gave him water.

Herard said: Mr. Guan Heng, Zhandi and I are leaving. We will secretly accompany you for protection along the way. On the surface, it is all up to you to take care of us. Under normal circumstances, we will not take the initiative to show up. If we find something is wrong,

Regarding the matter, I will ask Zhandi to send you a letter.

Brother Herard, don't worry. Oh, by the way, Guan Heng casually took out the gold medal and threw it to him: I picked this thing up in the woods, and I'll give it back to you.

Thank you very much. Herard smiled: I really thought I had lost this badge somewhere else.

Brother Guan Heng, goodbye. Silver Armor Warrior Zandi said with a smile: You and I are about the same age, but your skills are really great. When I develop my skills, we can have a good competition.

Good boy, I will be waiting for you at any time. Guan Heng smiled and patted Zhan Di on the shoulder: But next time just challenge me head-on. Don't attack me from behind again.

Hahahahahahaha After Guan Heng said this, he and Herard looked up to the sky and laughed, making Zhan Di extremely embarrassed.

A moment later, in Miss Yetelina's room, Guan Heng patted Shani's face: Girl, wake up, it's time to get up.

Uh, boss, is it dawn now? Shani opened her eyes drowsily, stretched and asked.

"Idiot, everyone was poisoned a few hours ago." Guan Heng whispered to Shani. Then, he told Shani everything that happened, leaving Shani speechless: "Uh, you didn't expect me."

When I woke up, I missed so many things.

I only told Isaac Yetelina and you about everyone’s poisoning. As for the old village chief and the villagers, I didn’t mention a word. Guan Heng said to Shani: This is to avoid everyone’s panic.

You must also be careful not to reveal any information to anyone before we leave.

Uh, look at what you said, do I seem to be a talkative person? Shani pouted and said: I can swear to God, can’t I not just talk nonsense?

That's right, ah, where did that lazy guy from Dingchun go? Guan Heng frowned and asked: I've been wondering, when everyone was poisoned last night, Chun'er went somewhere and is still missing.

trace

I don’t know. When Shani heard this, she was surprised and sweated on her forehead: When you came back for dinner last night, it was still napping in the room. Why, is it gone now?

Oops, this little guy didn’t know where he went. Guan Heng held his forehead and sighed bitterly: This is unreasonable. The older he gets, the more disobedient he becomes. If he comes back, he will be starved for three meals as punishment.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah Just when Guan Heng said these words, Dingchun walked in from the door with small steps.

"Ah, you're so dirty," Shani shouted angrily. She picked up a pillow and threw it at Dingchun at the door: "You're covered in stinky mud. Where did you go to play like crazy? Get out of here."

Dingchun, who was slapped on the head by the pillow, was startled. He let go of his mouth and heard a clanging sound. An object fell to the ground and landed at Guan Heng's feet. It turned out that Dingchun had been playing with it in his mouth.

.

Hey, what is this? Guan Heng walked over and picked up this thing, and found that it was rusty. It turned out to be a piece of broken iron. Shani also walked over and took a look. She frowned and said: It’s not a treasure. Boss, take it.

What are you doing with it? Throw it away quickly.

Shani, you are a professional thief and don’t even know this kind of antique. Guan Heng said with a smile: Do you know what this is?
