Inside Blade Fort, at night.

I have to say that the living room of Binfeng Castle is much more grand than that of Baiyan Castle. Lelan sighed in his heart.

The level of the banquet is much more luxurious than the luxury of Baiyan Castle that was decorated with shabby and hard. Bianfeng City was originally the richest city in the north.

Whether it is singing, dancing, dishes or atmosphere, they meet the standards of the grand banquet held by the duke.

Amid the sing of the bard, Lelan also relaxed a little and drank a few glasses of light wine.

As he asked, Mok held a grand welcoming party for all the nobles outside the city—to be precise, Lelan and the dozen Counts—.

Sitting in the middle of the lord's long table, Mok is naturally—he should be called the Duke of the North now;

He is chubby, kind-eyed, and his heart is as generous as he looks - and at the same time lacks the necessary scheming;

When Lelan just stopped the wrath of the North, that is, Duke Majin's coffin entered the city, he panicked and wanted to go out to greet him in person, but was persuaded by many nobles in the city: Those people are cruel and ruthless! If the second young master leaves the city at will, the consequences will be unimaginable!

The second young master followed their advice, which forced Lelan to spend a lot of more time.

However, these nobles in the city also attended the banquet at the request of Lelan - of course, these people who supported the second son were full of guard against the banquet tonight.

After all, they have heard more or less of what Lelan had done before;

In Baiyan City, he took advantage of the opportunity of the family's banquet to attack the city lord there, and caught all the people loyal to the original family in the fort...

This guy called on all the nobles in the city to attend this banquet, and he was probably not at ease!

What did he want to do? Do you want to use the same trick again, attack Duke Mok at the banquet, and then deal with the remaining nobles who supported the second son?

Very good thinking...!

In order to deal with possible struggles - although everyone was not allowed to wear weapons at the banquet, it is not ruled out that the nobles who supported the eldest son had short blades on their bodies, and the nobles on the second son prepared close-fitting soft armor;

Of course, in addition to armor, there are also guards outside the fort; although they could not solve the army outside the city, there was no problem in controlling the dozen nobles in the city.

The fact that the soldiers did not enter the city was more in line with the wishes of the nobles who supported the second son - so many people were a huge threat in the city.

Now, there are only a dozen nobles who support the eldest son at the banquet, hundreds of guards in the castle, and thousands of soldiers outside the castle, which can still make them rebellious?

Some tough nobles even asked to take down these dozen people directly; however, the reputation was too bad to spread like this, and it was not conducive to subsequent handling, so it was rejected.

Now, the support of the eldest son is sitting on one side of the reception room, while the support of the second son is on the other side; although the atmosphere between the two sides is not tense, it also shows obvious opposition;

At the banquet, both sides drank their own drinks without any intersection, and they didn't even want to throw their eyes to the opposite side - they were also for monitoring.

Modor and the Marquis of Lelan sat on Duke's left hand in turn; on his right hand were two nobles who supported him.

The two nobles have been staring at Marquis Lelan since the banquet, afraid that this guy will suddenly take out something and will not be good for Duke Mok. Fortunately, Lelan has always been quite honest and has no small moves.

However, there must be any links that should be found.

The banquet was half over, and the nobles were already drunk;

It's perfect for doing serious things at this time.

"Mr. Duke, I have a gift for you."

Hearing these words with a strong sense of danger, all the nobles raised their spirits—but when they looked at the person who was talking, their tense nerves relaxed again.

This sentence was not said by Lelan, but by Modo.

"Oh...? What gift do cousin want to give me?" Mok was quite interested in this.

After all, the nobles just asked him to be wary of Lelan, but did not ask him to be wary of Modo.

"You will know after you see it yourself!" Moduo called the servant to bring the gift he had prepared from the corridor.

The gift was placed in a pretty exquisite box - the box was long, about the length of someone's arms;

Modo smiled and watched as the servant put the gift box at Mok's table-its narrow end facing Mok.

The nobles were more at ease: if there were fire magic bottles or poisonous things inside, Lelan and Modo, who were so close, could not escape;

Moreover, it would be even less problematic to let Mok open it with his own hands.

Mok was quite excited: according to the originally planned script, there was a Deslap steel short knife with iron-cutting like mud;

I saw Lelan put the short knife into this gift box with his own eyes, and there would be no mistake.

When Mok opened the box, Lelan would burst out, then pick up the short knife, slashed at Mok, and killed him;

Then, the nobles who supported the eldest son would draw out the short sword in their arms, control the nobles on the other side, kill the most important and influential ones, and then force the remaining people to join their own side;

Lelan promised that he would be the acting duke of Bladefinition City at that time, and that he would have the final say before Mog's son became an adult;

And he only hopes that after working through these things, Moduo will give him some benefits.

Haha, that's hard to say?

The acting duke... Unexpectedly, he, a guy who had been kicked out of the heir sequence, had such a good thing!

Modo's breathing became more and more rapid; looking at his duke's cousin who was gradually lifting the box, he began to imagine how he should live his life in the future;

Acting Duke? Acting Duke seems not enough!

Mog had only a six-year-old son, so he would have some "accident". Wouldn't he be worthy of his reputation by then?

I was able to become the master of the North... Lelan, I thank you so much!

Mock found that the box was a little heavy and not easy to open;

He had to groan and used great strength to lift one side of the lid - and then a sharp crossbow arrow appeared in his eyes;

The Duke did not know the principle of this mechanism; the cold light that suddenly appeared in front of him scared him, and he subconsciously let go of his hand-

The cover of the gift box touched the strings of the crossbow arrow; when he let go, the sharp crossbow arrow flew out directly, passed through Mok's head, and then inserted it on the wall behind him;

Mok paused slightly, then fell on the table, bright red liquid and pink semi-fluid kept flowing out;

It is somewhat different from the scene that happened in Baiyan Fort a few days ago.
