Ivry was forced into a corner, with several men pointing crossbows at him. He had no doubt that they would shoot arrows if he made the slightest movement.
No one on either side moved easily.
As the situation was at a stalemate, a man outside walked up to Austin and broke the balance. He put his hand to his lips, whispered a few words in Earl Austin's ear, and handed him a letter sent by a messenger. Austin unfolded it and his face changed several times. He no longer had the leisurely and contented look of a cat playing with a mouse.
His face turned cold. He took the hat handed to him by his men and put it on his head. He raised his hand, put the handkerchief to his lips, coughed twice, and looked at the sky outside. "It's a little cold..."
He twirled the emerald ring on his index finger and said, "Let's go."
Macallan was standing nearby, his butt still hurting from being kicked by Iverley. "Lord Earl, what should we do with Iverley..."
Austin waved his hand, "Save some breath."
I didn't expect that the Third Prince would find out about him so quickly, and it seems that he still values this traitor very much. I wonder if he knows that this knight who has no loyalty spirit is planning to betray him to save his own life.
After receiving the order, Macallan's eyes flickered with light, and it was obvious that he didn't have any good ideas.
Amid the heavy siege, Iverley was captured and then imprisoned in a cell.
It was at this moment that he saw clearly where he was.
They did not return to the King's Castle - but to a place very close to Cadillac.
Austin came out of the castle alone.
When their king heard the news that Losxiu had returned to the country, he could no longer sit still and gave him a chance to make amends, asking him to at least bring back the traitor under his command, either alive or dead.
But beyond that, Austin has his own plans.
In the eyes of the nobles, the king is nothing more than a monarch with a glamorous appearance but a rotten core. His subordinates are fighting among themselves, and Austin wants to win over his own forces.
The light in the dungeon was dim, with torches on both sides. There was no sound of conversation inside. Ivry sat on the hay in the cell, leaning against the wall, and saw a huge rat squatting in the corner, and then slipped out through the gap in the railings. It was not afraid of people at all and was as fat as a kitten.
The walls were covered with spider silk and the environment looked very bad.
He remembered that at the dinner a few days ago, Los Xiu had asked him if he had ever been to the dungeon. Now he could answer Los Xiu "yes".
It's much colder here than outside.
There was a whip mark on his arm and his clothes were torn. Macallan whipped him and then called him away, and he left with some reluctance.
[How cruel.] He touched the wound from the whip and said, [I just kicked him once, why is he holding such a grudge?]
system:【......】
This guy completely forgot that he had taken advantage of the person to leave the castle and pushed him out of the carriage as soon as he left the castle.
The dungeon was not a comfortable place to stay. If you stayed there for too long, your hands and feet would become cold. When Iverley stood up and moved around, his body consumed energy faster. He was hungry but had nothing to eat, and no one brought him food, perhaps because they had been specifically told not to do so.
