Amerson waited until noon of the next day with resentment.
After Paul said goodbye to Queller and his group and played a little trick on his own Female Advisor, Berna sent someone to find Amerson and informed him that he could meet Earl Greiman at 2 pm in the castle's living room.
At two o'clock, Paul came to the living room, but did not see the messenger.
"Forget it, just wait for a while."
Paul opened a book and sat in the living room to read.
After reading a chapter, he looked up at the grandfather clock in the living room and saw that 15 minutes had passed.
He shook his head, feeling slightly unhappy. Since he took over as lord, he has never met anyone who dared to let him go.
After continuing to wait for a while, it was already half past two, and Paul couldn't help it anymore.
"Berna!" he shouted.
Chief Secretary immediately ran over from the office, "What's the matter? Lord Greiman!"
"Huh? Where is that Sir Emosen? Has he left already?" Berna noticed something was wrong.
Paul said dissatisfiedly, "I want to ask you again! Didn't you notify me at the wrong time?"
Chief Secretary said immediately, "It's impossible, Lord Greiman. At half past one, I sent someone to remind me again."
Paul became confused. "Is there an accident? Send someone to look for him again."
"Yes, Lord Greiman." Berna turned around and left.
At this time, a servant came in and reported, "Sir Emosen, the envoy of Emden, came to visit Earl Greiman."
Paul felt angry and annoyed all of a sudden. "Okay! It seems that I was simply let off by others."
Chief Secretary said a little surprised, "Oh! This is too much."
Yesterday, the envoy seemed a little domineering, but after all, he was just a secretary, so he didn't think anything of it.
Now it seems that this envoy is simply arrogant. He actually made a dignified earl wait for him for half an hour. He decided to stay in the drawing room and see how things would develop.
The servant brought Amerson in, and Paul took a look at him. He looked pretty good, but there was a bit of a sinister look in his eyes. I don't know if he was born like this or was pretending.
Amerson came to Paul and performed aristocratic etiquette.
Paul didn't even want to stand up, let alone return the gift. He just pointed to the opposite side to signal the messenger to sit down.
When Amerson saw Paul like this, the corner of his mouth curled up slightly and he sat down.
Then Paul asked, "Your envoy has come all the way to Lakeheart Town. What advice can you give me?"
Amerson said unhurriedly, "I don't take advice seriously. I came here to ask you clearly about Arda's unauthorized seizure of Earl Garnard on the order of Earl Kent."
"What? Detention?" Paul sneered.
Amerson nodded solemnly and said, "Yes, Bairdin General Manager Viscount Anqiluo has clearly informed the surrounding lords of the whole story."
Paul said disdainfully, "Humph! I also sent you a notice, haven't you read it? Or do you just believe the words of those traitors?"
The other party shook his head. "Lord Greiman, please don't confuse right and wrong."
Paul turned around and told Berna: "Invite Mellon over."
He was too lazy to talk nonsense with Amerson, so he handed over the real person directly to see what the other party said.
Silence fell in the living room. Paul was too lazy to pay attention to the messenger who let him down and said that he was confusing right and wrong. He picked up the book and continued to read.
And Amerson didn't speak anymore, and began to close his eyes to rest, looking neither anxious nor dry.
After a while, Mellon came to the living room. He had been told by Berna what happened. As soon as he came in, he said, "Mr. Messenger, what Anqiluo and others said is nonsense. These traitors murdered my father and their lord, and later tried to conspire against him. They plotted against me, but fortunately I overheard their conversation, wrote a secret letter to my Blood Oath Brothers Paul Greiman, and fled to Lakeheart Town before they realized that the conspiracy had been exposed, and then Paul sent troops to defeat those traitors."
"In short, please don't listen to the traitors' deceptive words."
Amerson waited quietly for Mellon to finish, then said with a smile, "Earl Garnard, I know you are in danger now and have to say something against your will, but please rest assured, Earl Kent will definitely seek justice for you."
Paul and Mellon were speechless after hearing what he said. What kind of operation is this?
Mellon refuted. "I am very good now, and I am completely free."
Amerson shook his head and said, "If you are not under house arrest, if Earl Greiman is not trying to annex Bairdin, how can you explain that you still have not returned to Butuya but are still staying in Lakeheart Town, and how can you explain that all the government orders in Bairdin are now issued by Lakeheart Town?"
Mellon explained, "Because my people are all traitors, I don't have any loyal and capable assistants to help me govern Bairdin, so I have to turn to Lakeheart Town for help. Moreover, I just went back to Butuya to convene a meeting with the businessmen in the territory a few days ago. I have lived there for several days. You can go to Bairdin to ask!"
Amerson turned a deaf ear and insisted. "Ganard-sama, I understand your difficulties. Believe me, the surrounding lords will never sit idly by and ignore such a violation of nature."
He changed the topic and stared at Paul and said, "Even if Bairdin's vassals have rebellious intentions, they should be handed over to Northwest Duke Ferdinand-sama came to make an impartial decision. Earl Greiman took over Bairdin by force without asking for permission, which is too disrespectful to Duke."
Paul retorted, "Garnard Family and Greiman Family are both vassals who directly swore allegiance to the Royal Family. We can handle each other's affairs ourselves without asking Duke Ferdinand."
Amerson Huo Di stood up and said with a sneer, "The late king once granted Ferdinand-sama the power of conquest. Northwest Bay All the lords in this area must be under his control. If you act without asking him, you are undoubtedly slapping Ferdinand-sama."
"You..." Mellon wanted to continue to refute Amerson.
However, he was stopped by Paul.
Paul has already seen it. The messenger sent by the Kent Family insists that he will detain Mellon, and also brings out Northwest Duke Ferdinand to suppress him. It is completely like looking for trouble. It is useless to reason with him.
He doesn't seem to have offended Kent Family? Oh, except for catching a few spies.
But that time, he was the reasonable one. At that time, he had the idea of pacifying the situation and kept silent, and he did not go to Emden to accuse the other party. Unexpectedly, the other party took advantage of it.
Wait, spy? At that time, those spies seemed to be here to steal papermaking technology...
Thinking of this, he generally understood what Kent Family wanted to do by sending the envoy here.
Paul adjusted his mentality, smiled at Amerson, and stretched out his hand to make a sitting gesture.
He said softly, "Mr. Messenger, please sit down first. Many things can be discussed slowly."
"A lot of things!" he repeated, looking into the other person's eyes.
Amerson looked at Paul's smile, and the expression on his face gradually relaxed.
He sat down, smiled back and said, "Of course, Lord Greiman, we can talk about many things slowly."
The young earl finally made his way.
I'm quite busy today and I haven't had time to write the manuscript for tomorrow, and I may not be able to do it tomorrow morning.
