Chapter 497 Unjustly Imprisoned
Roland Palace, inside a arena.
"Damn betrayer!" A shrill, painful, and daring voice rang out.
It is hard to imagine what happened to make a person cry out in such sorrow.
Following the sound of shouting, an astonishing breath erupted in the arena.
Hearing this voice, the patrolling knights all trembled, because it was the voice of Lord Priestley, the white lion.
What happened to make Master Priestley roar so furiously.
With such curiosity, all the knights around rushed to the place where the sound came from, that is, inside the arena.
boom!
A corner of the arena was blasted away by a huge force, and then a figure flew out along with the broken wall.
When the figure fell to the ground, everyone saw that the person was actually Miss Ingrid, the guest of the prince, from the Gustav family.
"You damned traitor, how dare you murder the prince!" At this moment, Priestley came out from the corner of the arena that was blasted away, and said a shocking thing.
"Prince!" After hearing this, a guard rushed into the arena, and then heard a mournful howl, "No——"
More guards rushed into the arena, and they screamed without exception. There was resentment and grief, but most of them couldn't believe it.
They couldn't believe that the prince Di Miutuo was actually pierced through the chest by a long sword, and that the assailant chose to sneak attack from behind.
"At that time, there were only three people in the arena, His Royal Highness, Miss Ingrid, and Master Priestley, and the master possessed level nine strength, so it was impossible to sneak attack the prince, so there was only one answer!"
The murderer was Ingrid. She must have used a private meeting with the prince to attack him from behind.
"traitor!"
"traitor!"
"traitor!"
Someone yelled, and then all the knights around looked at Ingrid with angry eyes.
It was a feeling like a sharp sword piercing the heart, which was criticized by thousands of people and could not be refuted.
Ingrid wanted to say that she did not do it, but that Priestley killed Prince Dimeut.
But unfortunately, she knew that no matter how she argued, it was impossible.
All she could do was to maintain her last dignity.
"I, Ingrid Roland Cavallier Gustav, did not kill Prince Dimiutto, it was the white lion Priestley who did it!"
After suppressing the injuries in her body, Ingrid yelled these words loudly in front of the knights who surrounded her.
But then, she was shot in the body by the knights with long spears, and several wounds appeared on her body.
"Take her down and imprison her in the dungeon of the palace, waiting for His Majesty's trial!" Finally, Master Priestley asked the surrounding knights to restrain their killing intent.
He knew that Ingrid would definitely die and must bear the charge of murdering the prince.
But the other party must be alive now, and must accept the trial of King Diggs, in order to play the greatest value.
When King Diggs executes the "betrayer" in front of everyone in the capital, and then announces "that matter" in public, that is the result they most hope for.
The knights also came to their senses. Although Ingrid had killed Prince Dimiutuo by dishonorable means, only King Diggus was the most qualified to execute him.
Soon, Ingrid was bound in chains, and then taken to the dungeon of the palace to await trial.
And Lei Yi, standing in the far corner with Yekongling, witnessed this scene.
"Let's leave first, everything will be considered in the long run!"
In the end, Lei Yi resisted the urge to save people, because he knew that when he rushed up, he was only killed by the white lion Priestley.
He left with Yekongling, then found Bai Lisa, and then relied on Yekongling's ability to leave the aristocratic area of Wangcheng.
after an hour.
A shocking news spread across the country.
Ingrid, the eldest daughter of the Gustav family, unexpectedly attacked and killed Prince Dimiutuo in the palace.
According to news from the palace, Ingrid has been imprisoned in the dungeon of the palace.
A few days later, the traitor was judged by King Diggs himself.
"traitor!"
"The betrayer of the Gustav family!"
"I am a disgrace to the nobles of the Kingdom of Roland!"
In the royal capital, there were all kinds of voices attacking Ingrid.
There are even conspiracy theorists who have linked Ingrid's three years of studying in Huaxia together, and even have the intention of blaming Huaxia for the contradiction.
"King Diggs will not wrong any good person, nor will he let any bad person go. Please stay safe and don't be impatient!"
"Next, His Majesty the King will judge the betrayer Ingrid on the day of Dimeut's funeral, and all the reasons will be revealed on that day!"
This is the news from the palace. Although some rumors have been temporarily suspended, the follow-up impact of this incident will not be small.
...
In a civilian area, somewhere on a street corner and back alley.
All three of Lei Yi were wearing black cloaks, hiding in this secret place.
On the streets not far away, the number of patrolling knights has more than doubled than before, and at this special moment, the royal city imposed a curfew.
The entire royal city of Roland was silent in the midst of sorrow.
Only those who really knew, and Lei Yi and the other three, had no idea about the death of Prince Dimiutuo.
"Saving people must be saved, and it must be done quickly. Otherwise, on the day of the trial, all the nobles and nobles in Roland will probably come back. There is no way we can rob Ingrid in front of so many people!"
"Not only that, we must evacuate quickly after saving people, and we must not delay a single bit of time, because we will be hunted down by the entire Roland Kingdom!"
After a little analysis, Lei Yi formulated a combat strategy.
The strategy is simple, save people and run away!
Not only to save, but to save quickly.
Now that the decision was made, Lei Yi was also unequivocal, and directly divided into two groups to start planning.
"Silly girl, you and I will go to the palace again; Lisa, you and Pangpang will go together this time, and go to the Tianma Ranch to prepare the four fastest Pegasus horses, waiting for us to arrive!"
"Hey! (_??)?"
"Understood, Lei Yi!"
"Ergou, although this princess doesn't like that blonde woman, but since you've said so much, she will reluctantly accompany you for a walk!"
The two teams separated quickly, and Fatty and Bai Lisa disappeared at the corner of the street.
"Let's go too!" Lei Yi and Ye Kongling returned the same way and entered the palace.
The guards in the palace were twice as strict as usual, but they still couldn't stop Yekongling's space power.
This ability is really suitable for sneaking operations, even buildings with defensive barriers become unimpeded in front of the power of space.
"Tell me, where is the palace dungeon!"
In a corner, Lei Yi grabbed a palace guard with one hand and asked with a vicious look on his face.
Seeing the gloomy face of the person in front of him, the guard swallowed with difficulty.
Soon, Lei Yi knew the location of the palace dungeon, but also got bad news.
The guardian of the dungeon is Priwyatt the gray lion, and Priestley the white lion is a brother.
"According to the confession at the scene, the real murderer must be Priestley, so this Priestley must also be an accomplice!" Lei Yi thought of this, and a flash of understanding flashed in his eyes.
This is a coup d'etat by the royal family of King Roland, and the ultimate beneficiary must be King Tiggs.
Because the person most likely to threaten his throne is his son, Prince Dimiuto who is regarded as the "future of the kingdom".
"These people playing political conspiracy are really dirty!"
Lei Yi no longer has any expectations for such a Royal Roland family.
...
Palace, dungeon.
As the chief culprit in the murder of Prince Dimeut, Ingrid was under the care of Priwyatt.
Not only was he imprisoned in the deepest part, but his whole body was wrapped in thick chains, making it very difficult to even move his body.
"Hahaha, I never imagined that a noble lady could kill His Highness the Prince!" Outside the deepest prison, Priwyatt teased.
But he knew in his heart that the person who really did it was actually his elder brother.
No matter how powerful Ingrid is, it is impossible to sneak attack on Dimiuto, who is one level higher than her.
It's a pity that people in the world are stupid, and there are many hidden secrets in this matter after careful consideration, but who will go into it now.
The truth is often in the hands of a few people, and the common people only need to know that it was Ingrid who killed the prince.
Under their promotion, this matter will become an established fact.
As for the truth, it doesn't matter anymore.
He just needs to ensure that our "blame man" is alive before Judgment Day.
Thinking of this, Priwyatt returned to his dungeon office and happily drank a glass of malt beer.
In fact, with his status, he can drink wine or whiskey, but he doesn't like wine that can be sipped in small sips, but beer that can be drunk in large swigs.
After drinking for a while, Priwyatt looked towards the deepest cell, and got up.
Because the matter is important, and just in case, he will be on duty in the dungeon for the past few days, and will check it every hour.
Although he just inspected it an hour ago, he is still meticulously carrying out the patrol mission now.
When he reached the door of Ingrid's prison room, he opened the mechanism on the door, and then looked into it.
"How is it possible!" Seeing this, he was shocked.
Because in his line of sight, there was no figure of Ingrid.
He quickly took out the key and opened the prison.
What appeared in front of his eyes were some broken chains with smooth cuts, just like those cut by a machine.
"These chains cannot be opened by a sixth-rank noble lady. And I haven't heard any movement from the beginning to the end. Even if she breaks free from the chains, where can she escape?"
Looking at the empty room, Priwyatt was confused.
