Chapter 1322 The Arrested Ryan Family
Britannia Empire, Leif City.
"What?!"
Philip looked at Charles in front of him in astonishment.
"The plan failed?"
"Um."
Charles nodded solemnly, and then handed a gold watch to Charles.
"That Gale pretended to agree with us, and then quickly informed the emperor of the Britannian Empire of our plan, causing the plan to be leaked."
"Your Excellency Kong Nan entrusted me with this gold watch, and asked me to take this gold watch and rush back to Leif City to inform you of the matter, and to ask you to quickly lead the whole family to flee to Luo according to the planned escape route. Lin Empire!”
Charles has been dressing up Kong Nan for many years, and among Kong Nan's many cronies, he is the one who has been following him for a relatively long time.
Just as Philip knew Charles, so Philip knew the gold watch.
Kong Nan commissioned a master watchmaker to tailor-make this gold watch for him.
There is only one in the entire continent, and Kong Nan always carries it with him.
After taking the gold watch from Charles, Philip immediately recognized that the gold watch was indeed his father's watch.
The old subordinate came to him with his father's watch - Philip was convinced of what Charles said.
"Where is father!" Philip asked urgently, "How is father now?"
"Please put it down! Your Excellency Kong Nan is quite safe now!"
"Our eyes and ears lurking in the White House promptly informed us of Gale's leak."
"Your Excellency Kong Nan, who received the news in advance, escaped from Pendragon before the central government could react."
"Your Excellency Kong Nan is on his way here now. He will meet you in the Luolin Empire later."
Philip was relieved to learn that his father was safe.
Originally, Philip had been on tenterhooks since he returned to Leif City.
He was afraid that one day one of his father's cronies would suddenly come back from Pendragon and tell him that his plan had failed.
Precisely because these days were full of fear, Philip took care of the family's property early and was prepared to quickly withdraw from the Luo Lin Empire at any time.
"Thank you for your hard work."
Phillip said solemnly.
"Thank you for sending this news in time."
"Sir, please don't be polite to me." Charles said respectfully, "I just did what I should do!"
…
…
Less than half an hour passed before carriages drove out of Leif City under the cover of night.
The items loaded on these carriages are all the property that the Wren family can take away.
Phillip stuck his head out of the car window and looked at the endless motorcade, both in front and behind.
Waves of resentment poured out of Phillip's heart.
He couldn't help but resent his father.
Resenting his father - why he started such a risky plan.
Philip was not in favor of launching this plan, which had equally huge benefits and risks.
Even if they can successfully escape to the Luolin Empire this time, the power and financial resources of their Rennes family will be severely damaged.
After all, the various industries of their Wren family are mainly concentrated in the Britannia Empire.
Fleeing to the Luolin Empire would be equivalent to giving up all their properties in the Britannia Empire.
After escaping to the Luolin Empire, it would be quite good if the power of the Rennes family could be one-tenth of its original strength.
…
…
Before heading to Pendragon, Kong Nan had already taken care of everything in advance. He not only bribed the lord of Leif City, but also bribed the defender of a stronghold on the southern front.
At the same time, he also bribed a large number of generals and officials in the Luo Lin Empire.
Bribing the city lord of Leif City - allowing them to successfully escape from Leif City when they escaped.
Bribing the guard of a certain stronghold on the Southern Front - when they were about to escape, they would pass through this stronghold that had been bought by their Ren family and enter the Rollin Empire.
Bribing a large number of guards and officials of the Luolin Empire - allowing them to smoothly enter the borders of the Luolin Empire and take root.
Everything is going smooth.
Philip led the convoy out of Leif City smoothly.
We successfully completed the entire journey from Leif City to this stronghold.
Finally, they successfully passed through this stronghold of the Southern Front.
Philip stuck his head out of the car window again.
Looking at the horizon ahead, he breathed a sigh of relief.
murmured:
"We're finally going to the Luo Lin Empire... we're finally safe..."
If they walk a little further, they can see the Luolin Empire's defense line and enter the Luolin Empire.
The heart that was originally worried now gradually relaxed.
At this moment, Phillip heard a strange noise.
That seemed to be...the sound of horse hooves tapping the ground.
Philip walked out.
I saw a slight fire coming from the right side of their convoy.
Then, one after another, black-armored cavalry emerged from the horizon holding torches.
Then he galloped towards them.
Looking at the black-armored cavalry running towards them, Philip felt that the blood in his body froze at this moment.
"Speed up! Run! Run!"
Philip roared as loudly as he could.
But Philip's efforts were destined to be in vain.
How could a carriage carrying heavy loads outrun the light cavalry?
In just a moment, Philip and the others were surrounded.
"Be obedient and let's catch him!"
The leader of the black armored cavalry shouted.
"We are the border patrol of the Britannia Empire!"
"All you stowaways, get out of the car!"
Stowaway—when Philip heard this word, he was still a little lucky, but his face suddenly turned white.
--strangeness!
Philip screamed in his heart.
——It’s so strange!
——Why is the Border Patrol here!
——At this time and place, there should be no Border Patrol!
Philip had a strange delusion.
He always felt... this border patrol team seemed to be ambushing here early...
…
…
The Wren family smuggled into the Luolin Empire at night, and all its main members were captured by the border patrol. This news spread throughout the country at an extremely fast speed.
After learning that the Wren family actually wanted to sneak into other countries, many people who knew what kind of crime "smuggling" was said with emotion - the Wren family is finished.
The crime of smuggling—this is a serious crime in the Britannia Empire.
The relationship between the Britannian Empire and the major surrounding countries—especially the Holy Hiran Empire and the Frankish Empire at present—is very poor.
In order to prevent citizens from fleeing to other countries and strengthen the national power of other countries, the Britannia Empire has always dealt with those who dare to smuggle into other countries severely.
For people with larger wealth, the punishment will be more severe.
With the size of the Rennes family...
The clan members headed by Kong Nan may have to stay in prison until they die.
