After this incident happened, the harsh words were put down, and Lin Shuo and Miao Chengyun couldn't sleep tonight.
Watch the night and see who dares to snatch people without eyes.
The two brothers went directly to the room and came to the roof of the hotel, with a foreign moon above their heads and a room full of their own people who needed to be protected under their feet.
Miao Chengyun looked up at the moon for a while, then squinted at Lin Shuo, and shook his head: "You're still stubborn."
"What's wrong with me?" Lin Shuo asked lightly.
"Before, I pretended not to care about others, as if it would be okay if it was burned." Miao Chengyun said, "But now when I hear that someone is going to rob it, I can't help but turn my face."
"Didn't you turn your face first?" Lin Shuo said, "You are the head of the regiment, and I, the deputy head of the regiment, have to cooperate with you."
Miao Chengyun said: "I couldn't be more angry with that woman's tone of voice. In front of me, she can still burn the people in this room. Is it false to think that I am borrowing the Nine Realms of Great Perfection? I have to see and see."
And you, Lin Shuo, are not my competitive nature, follow me to flip the table, and then say that you cooperate with me in acting, and you can talk nonsense with a little decent, you can't be fooled. "
"Want to hear the real reason?" Lin Shuo asked.
"Of course." Miao Chengyun looked around, "Don't worry, I can use the power of Sunda wind to block the transmission of sound waves nearby, so your wife can't hear it, so tell me."
"It's actually very simple." Lin Shuo said, "The business we accepted is to help Artemis get rid of Nemea, right?"
"That's right."
"Then it doesn't matter if Artemis dies or not as long as this matter is done, so whether she is burned to death has nothing to do with us, because the sale is over." Lin Shuo said, "But tonight, the sale is still open." It’s not over yet, if someone wants to come and snatch our benefactor, then we can’t agree to it, this is the rule of Liemen’s business.”
"It's that simple?" Miao Chengyun asked.
"It's that simple."
"Pull it down." Miao Chengyun said with a smile, "You can fool others with your rhetoric, but you can't fool me."
"Is there anything wrong with me saying that?" Lin Shuo asked.
"Heh." Miao Chengyun said, "Because the reward for this transaction is not gold and silver treasures, but taking us to find our mother.
There are no more than five people in Atlantic Continent who can fulfill this matter, and Artemis is one of them, but Garcia certainly cannot.
So the actual content of this transaction is to help Artemis ascend to the position of duke, because only in this way can the duchess act on Daxizhou in a fair manner and take us to find our mother.
And before she takes us to find our mother, there must be no accidents.
On the other hand, Artemis is not really just waiting to die. Deep down, she should be hoping that we can do something.
Otherwise, she would have told Garcia the whereabouts of our old lady, but from the time Garcia revealed his intentions to the time we set off, the siblings never spoke again.
But you haven't talked to her about this matter, she should be getting more and more desperate now. "
Lin Shuo rolled his eyes at Miao Chengyun: "Since you understand this, why are you asking so much nonsense?"
"Isn't this boring?" Miao Chengyun said, "And have you noticed that Artemis seems to have no hope for the third prince of the empire who has a marriage contract with her. It stands to reason that a woman is forced to this position, Finding your own man is the most reasonable choice.
And if you look at Garcia's experience, he was able to study in the imperial capital because Artemis left his fiancé.
This shows that she has always been in touch with her fiancé.
According to common sense, now that she is being slandered, others may believe it. How could her fiancé easily believe it
It's been almost a year since the incident happened, doesn't the third prince know how to send someone to investigate? "
"This is indeed a suspicious point." Lin Shuo nodded, "But it's not impossible."
"What's possible?"
"Physical evidence is not important for this kind of thing. With the level of technology here, it is impossible to detect DNA or something, so what is important is witness." Lin Shuo said, "The same words are said by different people, and the effect is not the same. the same.
So I think Nemea's slander of Artemis is something that people are willing to watch, but they may not really believe it. After all, there is a stake in the Duke's position. No matter what Nemea says, it is difficult Earn the trust of others.
Then do you think, whoever said this, everyone would believe it, even the third prince would believe it? "
Miao Chengyun immediately understood Lin Shuo's point: "You mean... Garcia?"
"Well, it's more or less the same." Lin Shuo nodded, "Garcia has always shown that he has no interest in power, and he has a good reputation as a scholar, and he has a close relationship with Artemis. , the third prince is the clearest.
Therefore, if it was Garcia who testified against Artemis in front of the third prince, even if he didn't say it explicitly, but just hinted at it, once the man's jealousy was ignited, we, the female patron, would be speechless. "
"Then what are you going to do?" Miao Chengyun asked, "Isn't it a little too much to put such a woman on the Duke's throne?"
"Who said I'm going to put her on the throne?" Lin Shuo glanced at Miao Chengyun.
"Hey! I knew it!" Miao Chengyun patted his thigh, "You still want to bring her home!"
"Go, go." Lin Shuo waved his hand, "Speaking seriously, turning Artemis into a duchess is not the best solution for our deal.
Think about it, she is now a down-and-out phoenix, and she wants something from us, so of course she will negotiate with us.
But this woman has been exiled overseas, and she still wants to come back to take the title of Duke, her ambition is not small.
Then do you think, if we help her up later, will she fulfill her promise in a short time? "
"That's definitely not the case." Miao Chengyun shook his head and said, "When she first came to power, she only has an earldom in her hands. If she doesn't actively expand and stabilize her territory, and goes out to roam around, then the duchy will belong to someone else when she comes back."
"So..." Lin Shuo pondered, "This is where the difficulty lies. You have to control the heat properly, and it's too late."
"Well, that's the reason. But it depends on the specific situation tomorrow. It's useless to think too much now." Miao Chengyun nodded, "Let's guess, we want to buy Artemis tonight." , who is it?"
"There are too many possibilities." Lin Shuo shook his head and said, "It's impossible to guess."
"Actually, there are not that many possibilities." Miao Chengyun also shook his head.
"Why waste your brain?" Lin Shuo said, "Just wait, it will always come."
…
The two brothers drank two jugs of wine and smoked a pack of cigarettes on the roof that night, and the weather was calm.
In the morning, watching the sun slowly climb up to the top of the hill beside the small town, and the morning light sprinkled over this exotic land, Miao Chengyun gritted his teeth:
"Hey, this is making fun of us, Lin Shuo, don't stop me for a while, I'm going to burn that lady boss."
"Stop doing this, you're greedy for others." Lin Shuo rolled his eyes at Miao Chengyun, "Why make such an excuse."
"It's always a fact that that person didn't come, right?" Miao Chengyun said, "Didn't she lie to us?"
"Don't you know if someone has been here?" Lin Shuo said indifferently, "He has been watching us for half a night, but he just didn't show up."
"Hey, bastard, I look down on him." Miao Chengyun shook his head, "If it were me, if my little junior sister fell into this field here, I would destroy this country."
"What did you say?" Lin Shuo narrowed his eyes slightly.
"I said my senior sister." Miao Chengyun quickly changed his words, "If my senior sister is wronged like this, I will destroy this country. My little junior sister is loved to death, anyway, she is under your control now."
Lin Shuo shook his head, and said seriously: "That person should have scruples about not showing up, and this scruple may not be because he thinks how strong we are. Things seem to be getting more and more complicated. We have to be careful. The oriole is behind."
…
The two brothers blew the wind on the roof all night, they were hungry and tired.
After coming down and walking into the hotel, I originally wanted to take a rest, but the charming proprietress refused.
Right at the door of the hotel, the woman knelt down, hugging Lin Shuo's thigh with both hands, crying like tears:
"Respected guest, you can't just leave like this! If you leave, my errands won't be done well, and everyone in the shop will not be able to survive! Just please, leave that woman to me, no matter what I will give you any amount!"
Miao Chengyun said from the side: "There are not many people in your small shop, so you will die if you die."
"Respected customer!" The proprietress let go of Lin Shuo's thigh, and put her arms around Miao Chengyun's ankle again, "Then my store will not open, you give me a way out."
"Huh?" Miao Chengyun looked confused, "How can I survive for you?"
"You take me with you." The proprietress said, wiping her tears, "Yesterday he didn't dare to do anything to you, which shows that the guest is very capable, and I can live with you."
"Follow me?" Miao Chengyun then lowered his head and asked, "How can you follow me?"
The proprietress said with tears and snot, "My man died early and has no one to rely on in this life. If you don't dislike my appearance like a willow, I will do my best for you."
The corner of Miao Chengyun's mouth twitched, and then he stretched out his fingers to lift the chin of the woman under his feet, reconfirmed the woman's appearance, and said to Lin Shuo, "What do you think?"
Lin Shuo said, "You are the leader, you can figure it out."
"I think it's okay." Miao Chengyun said, "Artemis is a noble lady, she may understand the affairs of the court, but if she really wants to go down to the ground, she must not be able to deal with traffickers and pawns. The locals follow, we can inquire about many things, and she can also guide us, which is much more convenient."
"This is true." Lin Shuo said, "But I have to ask you, do you really think that she is just the proprietress of the hotel?"
"It's definitely not." Miao Chengyun said, "But it doesn't matter who she is, it's even better if she's not just a hotel proprietress."
"It's good that you understand it in your heart. I just want to remind you that there will be no pies in the sky." Lin Shuo nodded, "It's not impossible for you to accept this woman, but you must accept it thoroughly so that she can't have second thoughts about you. , otherwise it will cause endless harm.”
"I know this, don't worry." Miao Chengyun said.
"Okay, then you are busy first, I will catch up on a little sleep, and we will set off at noon."
