The head maid rushed to the shore frantically, leaned over and looked at the river, looking for Nok's shadow.
"Quick, go down and rescue me!"
"Also, arrest the people on the carriage! Don't let the gangsters escape!"
"Hurry up!"
Although Yulia was in a panic, she gave various instructions in a clear and logical manner.
As the Queen's most trusted confidant, she has accompanied the Queen through major events such as seizing power, ascending the throne, and revolution. She has long been able to be calm in everything.
It’s just that the person who had the accident this time was Nock Lane. No, in preparation, his name should be Nock Tudor!
If Nok could inherit the throne, I would have to call him: Nok I!
That's right, Knock is a descendant of the Tulip family and a descendant of the royal family with the surname Tudor!
But now, one of the heirs to the throne was murdered right in front of the palace gate!
He was hit into the moat by a carriage!
The river water in late autumn was very cold, and the guards were wearing armor.
By the time they took off their armor and entered the water, there were no ripples visible on the river.
Fortunately, the water in the moat is not as fast as the Thames.
But the moat is deep!
After more than a dozen guards failed to salvage, at Yulia's request, the number of people joining the salvage team changed from a dozen to dozens. When the Queen arrived after hearing the news, she saw hundreds of people. !
Some people even got a few small rafts on the river and were actually fishing with fishing nets!
The queen almost fainted when she saw this scene.
"Yulia, what on earth is going on!"
The queen pretended to be calm and questioned Yulia.
"I told you to look at him, why would something happen?"
Yulia did not dare to hide it and directly reported the incident of Nok being hit to the queen.
After hearing this, the queen stared fiercely at the carriage surrounded by a group of guards.
The Queen looked at the familiar carriage: "Why don't you arrest the person!"
Yulia replied awkwardly: "This... the person in the carriage is Father Brad."
"I don't care if he is a priest or not! Take them all down for me! If the Church of Nature doesn't give me an explanation this time, I will send Kesley Brad to the gallows! Don't even do it!"
After receiving the queen's order, Yulia quickly went over and asked someone to capture the prisoner.
However, just as the guard approached the carriage, he was tied up by vines emerging from the ground.
"It's a natural cage!" Yulia recognized the spell that bound the guards and immediately shouted angrily: "Brad, how dare you resist arrest!"
The door of the carriage opened, and Father Brad jumped out of the carriage holding his staff.
He looked at the angry Yulia and smiled like a gentleman: "Ms. Kent, how can we talk about resisting arrest? I don't know when I broke the law."
Yulia suppressed her anger and said: "You rode your horse and injured someone in the street. Now the injured person fell into the water, and his life and death are unknown. As the perpetrator, naturally according to the law, you will be taken down and await punishment!"
Father Brad raised his head and laughed: "Hahaha, it's really ridiculous. Although I am sitting in the carriage, I am not driving the carriage. If my carriage hits someone, go find the coachman! Why are you looking for me!"
"Furthermore, you said my carriage hit someone because it hit someone? Where is the evidence? Where are the injured people you mentioned?"
"There is no victim. Madam, you just accuse my coachman of hitting someone. Isn't this a bit inappropriate?"
"You just want to take away my people without any evidence. Of course I won't agree."
Brad directly changed the concept of the arrest target into a coachman. In his opinion, this was already giving Julia Kent face.
Yulia is not stupid, and naturally understands that Brad's subtext is to put the responsibility on the driver. As long as there is evidence, he can be arrested.
Catch him, no.
But Yulia did not compromise as usual, but waved her hand.
"The Royal Knights obey the order. The Queen has an order. The Royal Knights are ordered to assist the palace guards and capture the murderer Kesley Blade. If he resists, he will be killed without mercy!"
Following Yulia's order, Brad's expression changed drastically.
He never expected that Yulia would dare to use the Royal Knights to deal with him, and even issue a kill order!
Realizing that he was locked by several powerful auras, Brad no longer dared to be arrogant and domineering.
If he doesn't resist, the Queen will arrest him and lock him up for a few days at most, and then notify someone from the Church of Nature to demand an explanation.
But if he resists, his death by the Royal Knights will be in vain! After all, he had been formally warned in public.
Although today's Natural Church's status in the Lion Heart Kingdom is increasing day by day, it has not reached the point where the Holy Church could ignore the royal power in the past.
Moreover, his professional level is only level five, and the restriction for Royal Knights to be selected is professional level four.
Not to mention that he knew that among the royal knights who were stationed in the palace all year round, several had professional levels above level six.
Exactly how strong it was, the gap was so big that he couldn't even notice it.
Therefore, everyone knows that he, the so-called priest sent by the Natural Church to protect the Queen, is the spy arranged by the Natural Church around the Queen.
It's okay to say that you don't have a chance, but now that you have an excuse, why don't you beat yourself up?
When he thought of this, Brad didn't dare to resist. He raised his hands and wanted to surrender.
But he forgot that he still had the magic wand in his hand.
So, someone among the guards shouted: "Stop him quickly, he is going to take action!"
On the wall of the palace, three figures rushed down and headed straight for Brad.
"George! Come back, I am the commander, let me charge first!" The figure behind shouted to the people in front.
The figure in front responded without looking back: "What nonsense are you talking about! Mark and his soldiers are rushing in front, and you want me, a captain, to watch my soldiers charge? Impossible!"
After saying that, he suddenly increased his speed and separated himself from the people behind him.
However, he was still a step too late for the man named Mark.
By the time he landed, Mark had already shouted "Don't harm the loyal soldiers of the kingdom", and then kicked Brad in the stomach, sending him flying and hitting the carriage behind him.
"Boom!"
The carriage was tilted by the huge impact. The coachman, who had been sitting in the driver's seat and remained calm, finally jumped off the carriage and watched as the carriage fell to the ground with a "boom".
Poor Brad, after knocking over the carriage, was bounced back and fell on his face on the ground.
Ignoring the pain in his body, Brad struggled to raise his head and shouted, "I vote..."
"No! He wants to recite a spell and cast a spell, let me interrupt him!"
The man named George sprinted and kicked Brad's raised chin, knocking back the "surrender" in Brad's mouth.
boom!
Brad turned 180 degrees, and the back of his head hit the ground hard.
"Get out of the way! I'm coming! You are inexperienced in dealing with such vicious gangsters! Let me come!"
The one who was lagging behind finally arrived. Regardless of the strange looks from others, he rushed in front of Brad, raised his foot and kicked Brad's hateful face.
While kicking, he preached to the two people around him: "You are still young and inexperienced. To deal with this kind of mage gangster, we only need to control his mouth, so that he can't concentrate on chanting the spell."
The two people who had originally punched Brad to vent their anger suddenly became interested when they saw that their friend Robin was so cunning and controlled his strength and kept attacking Brad's face.
I thought to myself: "This old guy like Robin still knows how to play."
Immediately, the two hurried forward, and the three of them surrounded Brad who fell to the ground, and kicked him randomly with their feet.
The three of them were kicking each other shoulder to shoulder, but they controlled the force so as not to knock Brad unconscious.
At the same time, George still had a childlike innocence and greeted the guards around him who were already stunned: "Hey! Boys, what are you doing standing still? Let's go together! It's rare for seniors to guide you on the spot to deal with extremely vicious gangsters. This is not an opportunity. Available at all times!”
After saying that, he did not forget to wink at everyone mischievously.
"I...I'm coming too!"
Among the guards who were already stunned, one suddenly took courage and rushed over.
"Good boy, come on, come over here. Guys, make room for this young man."
"Yes, yes, yes, kick here. Well, don't use too much force. You will kick him to death. Although he is a vicious gangster, we are not. We have to be merciful. Just be gentle, the force is right!"
After hearing George's on-site "guidance", the group of guards thought of the various difficulties Brad had made to them in the past based on their status, and thought that the opportunity was rare, so they put down their reserve and swarmed forward.
This time, George and the other three were frightened.
They just wanted to take the opportunity to teach Brad, the Natural Church's spy, a lesson instead of killing him.
These young men were so excited. If they didn't strike lightly, they would be in trouble if they beat someone to death.
A priest of the Natural Church, and Brad's father is also a big shot in the Natural Church, otherwise he would not be sent to gild the queen.
"Stop, stop, stop, stop! If you hit him again, he will be killed! Stop it!"
George quickly shouted to stop the excited guards, but the effect was slightly less.
When Mark and Robin saw this, they quickly activated their fighting spirit and knocked down everyone around them. Then they grabbed Brad, who had fainted and changed beyond recognition on the ground, and escaped from the crowd.
"George, we have taken the prisoner to prison, you are responsible for handling it here!"
After saying these words, the two of them ran away without a trace.
George muttered unhappily: "These two old guys run so fast and leave the hard work to me. They really think they are my bosses!"
Yes, the three of them are all Royal Knights of the same level as the sixth level of their profession, and they are Royal Knights with the title of Silver Level.
Royal knights with professional level 4 or 5 are titled Bronze Royal Knights.
The sixth and seventh professional levels are Silver Royal Knights.
The eighth or ninth level of the profession is the Golden Royal Knight.
This is the latest occupational classification promulgated by the Kingdom after the Queen implemented the New Deal. (Note 1)
Everyone was on the same level, and those two ran away with their "new toys". He still had to stay to protect the queen's safety, fish and go to work. Naturally, he didn't want to choose to go to work.
The queen is not in a good mood right now. George, with his lazy temperament, really doesn't want to move forward. He is afraid of arousing the queen's anger.
I don’t know what the relationship between the boy who fell into the river and the queen was, but he actually made the queen so angry that she didn’t hesitate to attack the people of the Church of Nature.
Could it be that that crazy boy was the illegitimate son of some royal family?
This is not right. There are too many illegitimate children in the royal family, so why is the Queen so obsessed with this boy?
Is it possible...
Thinking of the rumor in the palace, George couldn't help but shudder.
"That's bad. If this kid was one of the heirs chosen by the queen, we should have rescued him just now! Wouldn't the queen blame us for not saving him?"
George had given up hope of Knock's life.
Half an hour has passed since the accident. The salvage team has not found anyone yet. He must have been drowned and sunk to the bottom of the river!
