Chapter 434： Return

Bailu City, at the city gate.

The guard stopped the person in front of him and asked routinely:

"Name? Where did it come from? What did you do in Bailu City?"

The man glanced at the absent-minded guard and uttered a name: "Vincent San Pros."

"Oh, you need to pay the entrance tax of three copper coins to enter the city..." The guard subconsciously said a routine, but then he reacted, finally raising his head and looking at the person in front of him in amazement.

"Hou... Your lord Marquis!" The guard finally recognized Vincent and immediately bowed and saluted.

His exclamation also caused a commotion at the gate of the city. Not long after, the knight on duty at the gate hurried over and welcomed the Marquis of Vincent into the city.

The Marquis of Vincent did not delay much at the gate, and went straight to the Bailu Castle. However, his speed was not fast. He rode around the city on his horse, not only to see the changes in his long-lost hometown, but also to give Bailubao some preparation time.

The Marquis of Vincent was very curious, and what his father would look like when he saw him later.

all the way to Bailubao, the butler has led a team of attendants lined up at the door to greet him.

"Master, you are back!"

Marquis Vincent nodded, rolled over and dismounted, handed the reins to the attendants, and asked the butler: "Where is my father?"

"The master is in the study. Do you take a shower and change clothes first, or go to see the master directly?"

"I'll go and see my father directly."

The Marquis of Vincent took the wet handkerchief sent by the maid, wiped his face, and walked to the study.

Everything in the castle is the same, as if nothing has changed, but the Marquis of Vincent clearly understands that many things here have changed since he was captured in Silvermoon City.

Although the attendants met along the way are still respectful, the Marquis Vincent can still keenly feel that their eyes are somewhat subtle.

Walking along the spiral staircase to the third floor of the castle, the Marquis of Vincent stopped in front of the study, adjusted his collar, and knocked on the door.

咚咚咚.

"Come in."

The Marquis of Vincent took a deep breath and pushed in.

"Father, I'm back!"

The Duke of Saint-Pros, who was playing against the Duchess, put down the crystal chess pieces, looked up at his eldest son, and said blankly:

"Unexpectedly, you dare to come back?"

The Marquis of Vincent smiled faintly, and said, "Father, what are you talking about. This is my home, why wouldn't I dare to come back?"

Feeling the tension between father and son, the duchess slowly got up, walked to her son, stretched out her hand to help him straighten his slightly messy hair, and sighed: "This trip to Silvermoon City, you have suffered."

The Marquis of Vincent warmed his heart with a more sincere smile on his face, saying: "Mother, going to Silvermoon City is my own choice. No matter what I experience, I will not resent anyone, and this operation failed. I really need to take responsibility, and I will not escape.

But, I must not allow someone to stabb me in the back! "

The Duke of Saint-Pross flashed his eyes and asked, "Who do you think stabbed a knife in your back?"

The Marquis of Vincent sneered, and said, "Apart from my good brother Evan, who else is there?"

The Duke of Saint-Pros didn't speak, he seemed to be thinking about something.

The Duchess took her son by the hand, told him to sit down on the sofa, and poured him a cup of black tea. At this time, hearing Evan’s name, she immediately asked:

"By the way, where's the Evan? Didn't he come back with you?"

The Marquis of Vincent glanced at his mother aggrievedly, and said in an angry tone: "How dare I come back with him? Who knows if Evan will sit down on the way and confirm my "death"?"

The Duchess frowned and reprimanded: "How can you doubt your brother like this!"

"Did I wrong him?" Marquis Vincent showed disdain, "Didn't he always insist that I was assassinated in Silvermoon City?"

The Duke of Saint-Pross did not answer this question, but asked: "How did you come back?"

"Of course you exchanged half of the Pegasus water fleet!" Marquis Vincent took it for granted. "Didn’t the conditions have been negotiated? Earl Anglia got the batch of warships, and he was in the city of Clover. I was released. But I didn't dare to meet the good brother who had been cursing me to death, so I took a small boat down the Anger River south and returned to Bailu City."

After listening to the words of the Marquis of Vincent, there was a sudden silence in the study.

After a while, the Duke of Saint-Pros asked: "You don't know what happened to Clover City?"

"What happened?" The Marquis of Vincent looked confused.

The Duke of Saint-Pross picked up a letter from his desk and said, "This is a letter from Evan from Alfalfa City. Please read it for yourself."

The Marquis of Vincent put down the tea cup, got up to the desk, took up the letter paper and looked at it carefully.

嘭!

"He's slander!" The Marquis of Vincent smashed the letter on the table, yelling outrageously, "I don't know what happened behind Alfalfa City, and I don't know how it was like this, but he It is a big joke to say that I colluded with the Northern Territory against Earl Hall!

Why should I do this?

And if this is the case, how dare I return to Bailu City alone?

Evan, he clearly wanted to put the blame for the defeat on me! "

The Duke of St. Pros carefully observed his son's expression, as if he wanted to find a flaw in it.

This look obviously angered the Marquis Vincent, and he yelled at his father angrily:

"Father, don't you understand by this time? This incident was a conspiracy planned by Evan from beginning to end, but he was self-defeating and messed up!

He first asked Fei Jiejue to lie that I had been assassinated and killed in Silvermoon City, in order to make you determined to support him as the heir of the Duke of the East, and then use the excuse of revenge for me. The above is to retaliate against the Eastern Territory, but in fact it is to clear out the forces that support me and pave the way for his future succession.

Why did I collude with the North to instigate Earl Hall?

It was obviously that he forced Earl Hall to get rid of dissidents!

Father, such a man who used all means to frame his brother, forced Earl Hall, and destroyed the biggest barrier of the East, do you still believe in his nonsense! "

The Duke of Saint-Pross did not speak, but looked at his son silently, wondering if he believed what the Marquis of Vincent said.

After a while, the duchess broke the silence: "Well, Vincent, you are tired when you come back all the way. Let's go back and have a rest. What happened in Clover City, your father and I will definitely find out. "

"Good." Marquis Vincent nodded, and then left the study.

When the door was closed again, the Duke of Saint-Pros looked at his wife and asked:

"Do you believe what he just said?"

The Duchess shook her head and said:

"Do not believe."
