The people present were so excited as if they had won a difficult war to defend their country.
After celebrating for a long time, a minister asked:
"Then your majesty, what should be done with Prince Douglas's family?"
Emperor Heather hesitated for a moment, then said:
"Prince Douglas and the Prime Minister have indeed made great contributions, but these cannot be made public, otherwise the Loran people will really come to attack at all costs."
Hearing this, the minister said carefully:
"So, are we going to follow the Prime Minister's plan and strip the Prime Minister and the Prince of all their honors and titles? At the same time, are we going to openly strip the Douglas family of their titles and honors, and increase taxes?"
Emperor Heather wanted to nod his head, but suddenly froze, and then added:
"That alone may not be enough. That woman won't believe it. Most of the Loran nobles probably won't believe it either. But we do need to come up with a reason not to go to war. Well, let's do this. All the fiefs of the Douglas family except for the main city will be taken away! At the same time, Lord Douglas's title will be reduced to a court baron."
Upon hearing this, several ministers were shocked:
"Your Majesty, isn't this too much?!"
Prince Douglas was a great hero! It was already too much to punish his family under such circumstances, let alone such a terrible punishment
But Emperor Heather shook his head and said:
"I will personally send a letter to young Lord Douglas. In the letter, I will explain everything. And tell him that I will restore his honor, territory and title in the future!"
Several ministers wanted to persuade him, but they heard the emperor say:
"Although the monster Butcher is dead, I still don't have the confidence to start a war, because I am really unsure of what the Butcher is planning, and how much of this plan has been completed!"
After hearing this, the words of dissuasion from several ministers were stuck in their throats.
After looking at each other, they all chose to remain silent.
The butcher's unknown plot is indeed terrifying, but there is a more realistic problem that the Douglas family is no longer an angel family, not even a demigod family.
Because among the channels that the Douglas family has mastered, all the extraordinary characteristics above Sequence 5 are in the prince...
"Young Lord Douglas will understand me and the country!"
The Douglas family's fiefdom was very vast and very important. Heather's emperor had thought about taking back the other party's fiefdom a long time ago.
Now that he has everything, he will definitely not miss this opportunity.
As he spoke, the emperor's eyes fell on the map on the wall. Ever since a letter from the butcher forced the eastern nobles to rebel three hundred years ago, the Douglas family's fiefdom perfectly cut off Heather's northern and southern territories.
This situation makes Emperor Heather feel uncomfortable every day!

Outside the spiritual world, in the endless nothingness, there is a sweet green meadow, and in the middle of the meadow there is an old green tree standing tall.
This was originally a rare peaceful place in the endless void, but today the peace and tranquility here was broken by a long bloodstain.
A trail of blood as wide as a person appeared from nothingness and spread all the way to the foot of the old tree.
If you zoom in, you can see that at the end of the bloodstain is a dying old man, and the white mask he placed next to him.
The old man is the white mask who went deep into the spirit world beyond the spiritual world in order to find a key!
Fortunately, although he was about to die, he successfully found the "key".
Looking at the dim light in his hand, the man in white mask smiled, a very happy smile.
Then he picked up his mask and the key and pushed them into nothingness.
The key has been found, and his mask will return with the key.
At this point, the prison that holds the witch will be completely broken, and the saint whose fate is forever entangled with the witch's because of being imprisoned will also get the relief they deserve.
The mission of the Galilee family has finally been accomplished!
127 Let her regret it for the rest of her life!
After doing all this, White Mask leaned against the tree and closed his eyes contentedly.
Prepare to wait for your own death.
At this time when everything should have been quiet, an indescribable whisper approached, and then the whispers all turned into a deep male voice:
"Are you satisfied with this?"
Just by hearing the strange whispers that were irresistible and penetrated deep into his soul, White Mask knew that an evil god was approaching.
But at this moment he was no longer afraid. He leaned against the tree trunk, closed his eyes and said:
"The immortal witch will be released, the sealed fate of the saints will begin to flow, and the mission of the Galileo family has been completed."
"In order to change the fate of the saint, he released the witch that he had spent his entire life sealing?"
"The witch is a prisoner and a shackle. After so many years, the saint should get the liberation he deserves."
"Well, that makes sense. The saint who imprisoned the witch is indeed a prisoner as pitiful as the witch. Is your family a disciple of the saint or a person who has been saved?"
"Both! The Iscariot family is both the followers of the saints and the redeemed lambs."
"I see. But I don't care about that. The love and hatred between saints and witches is just a story to entertain me after dinner. What I care about is..."
Empty words began to turn into reality. A distorted and blurry figure appeared on the grass. When this supreme existence descended here, the grass began to wither and the old trees began to decay.
"When a person is about to die, he is indeed fearless, but I am here to return the miracle of life to you."
The distorted and blurry figure looked at the angel under the tree, bowed slightly and smiled:
"Let's make a deal!"

On the great plains of the North, Audrey tried hard to digest Mozo's explanation. After a long while, she said in astonishment:
"So you set this up to kill Heather Fox and the angel?"
"Yes. The Heather people, especially Emperor Heather and the old fox, are deeply afraid of the Wolf Family. They will not allow new members of the Wolf Family to grow. For this reason, they are willing to pay a huge price to stifle the return and rise of the Wolf Family."
Mozo gave his own half-truthful explanation. Audrey, who had the bracelet of the goddess of luck, was definitely someone he couldn't escape from, so instead of letting her wake up, it was better to fool her with a true or false statement.
"Well, now that they're all dead, are you going back?"
"No, if I die, the Hesir people will smile and lower their posture to ask for peace, because they no longer have the need and confidence to start a war. They will pay a heavy price for this. At the same time, the nobles of the old seven kingdoms in Loran will also put aside a series of small thoughts because of the extinction of the Wolf family."
"But if I come back from the dead, the situation that has been eased with great difficulty will deteriorate further. This is not worth the loss. You don't want to see two great empires suddenly go to war, do you?"
Audrey has been through a lot recently, so when she thought of an all-out war between the two empires, she shuddered violently and shook her head vigorously.
But then she hesitated and said:
"But why didn't you tell us about this in advance? Don't you trust us?"
At the end, Audrey's voice was obviously a little low.
But Mozo shook his head and said:
"It's not that I don't believe it, but I can't say it. After all, not everyone is a genius at acting. Once someone reveals an emotional flaw, all the previous efforts will be wasted."
Audrey was obviously very pleased with this answer. So that's how it is!
But she immediately thought of another question:
"But if the Hesirs killed you, would Roland and the North really be so angry? After all, in their eyes, you are really dead."
Mozo smiled and shook his head again:
"Don't worry, I have certainly thought about this. I left a letter for Gao Wenqing in advance and explained everything. He will take care of everything!"
"Eh? Then why does Lord Gawain know that?"
Audrey suddenly became jealous.
"Because he is not present and has a powerful position."
Mozo gave a strange reply.
Isn't this an obvious thing
“Is that so?”

In the rooftop garden of the White Castle, Gawain finally rushed back. Before he could open the letter left by the young master, he heard his subordinates report in panic:
"Lord Gao Wen. Young Master, Young Master is dead!"
Gawain, who was holding the unopened envelope, felt as if struck by lightning.
How could it be like this again?! How could it be like this again!
"What's going on? What on earth is going on? Isn't Isabel over there? Isn't Maurice over there? How could this happen?!"
"It's Heather Fox, that damn old monster. He's still alive. He planned everything. He also brought the Mist Angel Douglas and a Level 0 Sealed Artifact with him!"
"In the end. In the end, the young master died together with that shameful old bastard!"
The knight from the North, kneeling on the ground, uttered these words in great sorrow.
Gawain trembled all over when he heard this, and with trembling lips he wanted to immediately gather troops to the north to attack Heather.
But then he remembered something and hurriedly opened the envelope in his hand. After reading it, the last glimmer of hope in his eyes was completely shattered.
After crumpling the letter paper in his hand into a ball, the lion Gawain swayed and slumped in his chair.
Then he waved his hand weakly, signaling the knight to retreat first.
The knight also nodded sadly and left.
After the knight left, Gawain, who had just had a face full of grief, suddenly relaxed. He lay on the chair and spread out the letter paper that he had crumpled into a ball. After reading it carefully, he finally let out a long sigh of relief.
"I was scared to death."
After saying this, Gawain began to think about who he could tell about this matter.
"Hors and Morris must be told. Forget about Gnass, that bald guy can't hide anything. Ah, poor Verdani must also be told. But for the time being, she can't be allowed to go to the young master, after all, the movements of the Blood Pact Knight are too conspicuous."
'As for Loran, maybe the old man of the Rose family can try to contact him. In that case, the little girl of the Rose family should be no problem, after all, she has a close relationship with the young master. Well, Count Hahn should also be trustworthy, as for that woman Isabel.'
Gawain stopped thinking when he thought of Isabel. He remembered that the other party had deceived the North for three hundred years, and he also remembered that no matter what, it was this woman who killed his old master with her own hands.
So he began to think about another thing, that is, whether they, the Rose family and others who relied on the North, as well as the other nobles who absolutely did not want to fight, could stop the signs of a war that was not worth the cost and was completely unnecessary.
Finally, Gao Wen came to a positive answer and gritted his teeth and said:
"Let her regret it for the rest of her life first!"
128 Iron Bank
After the Young Wolf Lord was assassinated, contrary to everyone's expectations, the Lorans did not go to war with the Hesirs.
Although the border between the two sides was always tense, they did not fight in the end. I heard that in this incident, the Hesser people insisted that it had nothing to do with them and that it was all a treasonous act by the former Prime Minister Gesibu.
Except for the furious queen, the rest of the nobles and officials of Loran basically agreed with the Hesir's explanation of lying, and tried their best to avoid a war between the two sides.
In short, many people feel that there is something strange about this, but few people can clearly explain what the problem is.
What they really talked about was the feud between Heather Fox and the Wolf family.
The returning Young Wolf Lord, the faked death of Heather Fox, the dead Mist Angel, and the disappeared Level Zero Seal were all more attractive topics than those incomprehensible politics.
On a commercial airship heading for Florence, Audrey discovered that whether before the ship set sail or just before arriving, these people were tirelessly talking about all kinds of gossip that they had heard from somewhere.
These include but are not limited to the fact that Hathi Fox is actually a woman. And the famous Young Wolf is a goblin in disguise. Or in other words, everything is fake, there is no Sorrow of Storm's End, and there is no return of the Wolf Family. All of this is a joint effort by Loran and Hathi to make fun of everyone...
In short, the entire cabin was filled with many bizarre remarks that were beyond Audrey's imagination.
This caused Audrey to exclaim in amazement, but Mozo said he was used to it.
As for rumors, once you and I add to them, they basically become completely ridiculous.
Mozo had seen too many things like this, both in his previous life and in the dream opera.
Especially the affairs of big figures who are far away from the lives of ordinary people are more likely to be made quite outrageous through the words of ordinary people and their unrealistic fantasies about the upper class.
After hearing it so many times, Mozo no longer took it seriously.
On the contrary, he thought it was quite interesting to have such a group of people to chat with and relieve boredom. So he quickly joined in and started to sing under Audrey's speechless eyes.
