Enjoying everyone's gaze, Kahn Sudor was a little floating.
Especially the clear gaze that belonged to Miss Vera made Kahn flush with excitement all over and he trembled.
The heir of the Sudor family suddenly felt that if he invited Miss Vera to dance again at this time, he might not be rejected as before.
He feels that he is now a hero.
However, Colin looked at him as if he was looking at an idiot.
Unexpectedly, it was this guy who came to be the "early bird".
The nobles present all showed excitement after seeing the knight Kahn stepping forward to question Marquis Charles.
Except for one person.
This person is Kahn's sister, Cynthia Sudor who is called a madwoman by Colin.
She looked at her younger brother with horror!
Why?
Why did this banquet that was supposed to make the Sudor family famous become what it is now?
If possible, she just wants to tightly seal her brother's mouth now, put him in the basement, and never let him out.
Cynthia knew very well that perhaps the Marquis of Charles had really caused public outrage, but after all, he was the first heir of the St. Hilde family.
My younger brother is an heir to a viscount, what qualifications does he have to ask?
No, although her brother is stupid, he is definitely not a person with such courage.
Otherwise, when Cynthia led the army to recover Ice Rock City, he would not continue to hide in Fallen Eagle City.
Thinking of this, she suddenly turned to look at Earl Uman.
It seemed that it was this good uncle who quietly said something in her brother's ears just now that Kahn rushed forward.
Cynthia felt cold in her heart, and she suddenly felt that the future of Sudor's family seemed to be bleak.
"Knight, you are right!" Marquis Charles didn't care about the offense.
He took a deep breath and sincerely asked, "So, what kind of punishment do you think can offset my previous mistakes?"
Kahn didn't seem to have expected the Marquis of Charles to be so "talky". At this time, seeing the Marquis of Charles waiting for his "trial" in such a low voice, Kahn trembled even more.
But after the excitement, Kahn was also a little confused.
He opened his mouth, but he dared not say what punishment was suitable for Marquis Charles.
Turning his head, Kahn looked at his uncle, Earl Uman, with a plea for help.
But Earl Uman lowered his head at this time, as if he didn't know anything about the changes in the outside world.
Kahn's heart sank suddenly.
But just when he wanted to back down, he saw Vera's gaze again.
In Kahn's view, that is full of encouragement, appreciation, and even admiration!
Thus, the knight Kahn is full of power again!
Even the pimples on his nose are faintly red.
For an instant, he felt super brave!
"Knighthood!" Kahn's sharp voice echoed in the hall, "As punishment, you should take the initiative to give up the marquisship!"
"Wow—"
Everyone was stunned.
Even Marquis Charles, who has always been outstanding in acting, didn't know how to react for a while.
Colin looked at Kahn with a gaze full of pity.
This is a look that cares for the mentally retarded.
And Cynthia was already desperate.
She doesn't know whether the title of Marquis Charles can be kept, but the status of Viscount of the Sudor family seems to be out of order.
The title of the Marquis of Charles represents his qualifications as the first heir to the Duke of St. Hilde.
It also represents the face of the Duke of St. Hilde!
Asking the Marquis of Charles to abandon his title is no longer punishing Charles, but hitting the Duke of St. Hilde in the face!
It is forcing the Lord of the North to admit his mistake!
Is forcing the palace!
The music finally stopped.
The atmosphere in the banquet hall was stagnant as if it was almost suffocating.
The eyes of the audience focused on the two - Marquis Charles and knight Kahn.
The knight Kahn originally enjoyed the feeling of being the focus of the audience, but now, he feels a little wrong.
The cold sweat fell drop by drop.
Kahn once again looked for the gaze of the goddess in his heart - Vera.
But Vera didn't look at him anymore.
Instead, she looked at her brother - Marquis Charles with a worried look.
Kahn's face turned pale for a moment, as if he finally realized what a stupid thing he had done.
The face of Marquis Charles on the opposite side was also ugly at this time.
He was also a little bit at a loss as to how to respond.
He couldn't agree to give up the title, let alone dared to agree.
This is no longer a matter of honor or disgrace for him alone.
But it involves his father's face and even the prestige of the St. Hilde family.
The dignified master of the Northern Territory, when is it the turn to let a group of inferior aristocrats point fingers at their heirs?
The Marquis of Charles didn't want to see Kahn, who looked restless, this idiot was just a guy pushed out.
His gaze crossed Kahn, slowly sweeping across the audience.
But he didn't see any friendly and supportive eyes.
At this time, he also gradually realized that this storm was probably premeditated.
It is not only against himself, but also his father.
Then he can't give in!
Take a step back and you'll be crushed!
So, the Marquis of Charles took a few steps forward, crossed Kahn, and faced the nobles at the meeting, with a solemn expression: "Who else thinks I should give up the title, please stand up!"
He didn't want to deal with the puppet of Kahn but wanted to force the real mastermind out of the scene.
Moreover, he didn't believe it, the St. Hilde family ruled the northern border for thousands of years. Could it be that after the fiasco it would immediately be in danger of falling apart?
The whole audience was silent.
The St. Hilde family's thousand-year accumulation of prestige in the north is not a simple matter.
As a result, the banquet became embarrassing again.
After a long time, a voice finally broke the situation.
"Ho ho, sorry, Lord Marquis! Kahn is a young ignorant child, and if there is any offense between his words, I hope the Marquis can forgive him."
The one who stood up was Earl Uman.
However, he did not continue to target the Marquis of Charles, instead, he was justifying Kahn.
Also gave the Marquis Charles a step down.
Colin suddenly had some doubts. Is this Earl Uman really devoted to the Duke of St. Hilde and was not involved in this conspiracy against the Marquis of Charles?
But soon, Earl Uman’s next sentence dispelled Colin’s previous thoughts:
"My lord Marquis Garcia, what kind of punishment do you think is suitable for the mistakes Marquis Charles committed before?"
Marquis Garcia heard this, as if he was awakened from the state of leisurely watching before.
Under all eyes, he slowly got up, walked slowly to the front of the stage, and stood side by side with Marquis Charles.
Marquis Charles had to slightly bow, stepped back half a step, and gave up the central position.
In the face of the knight Kahn, or the Earl of Uman, or any nobleman present, the Marquis of Charles would not give in.
Except for the Marquis of Garcia.
Because the commander-in-chief of the Black Cavalry really has the ability to lift the table!
Marquis Charles is now uncertain, his own uncle, whether he wants to lift the table or not?
Are all these things in front of him the result of those northern nobles who are dissatisfied with him, or are they secretly planned by the Marquis of Garcia?
If it is the former, Charles is actually not too worried.
If the latter one……
"Charles." Marquis Garcia finally spoke.
"Uncle." Marquis Charles slightly lowered his head, waiting nervously for the trial.
"The lives of 200,000 soldiers in the north, what do you use to atone for it?"
Boom!
The Marquis of Charles was struck by lightning.
The whole person stood blankly on the spot.
What else can he do to make atonement?
Marquis Charles looked up in amazement and looked at his uncle in shock.
It seemed to know him for the first time.
...
Colin watched this scene from a distance, and a word flashed in his heart--
See you in the poor picture!
