212 Little Fool, the Twin Jades
Braydon Neal was going to the capital!
Tristan Yandell’s expression changed into shock, and he tried to stop him. “Big Brother, it’s not appropriate to go to the capital now. Your coronation is imminent, and your body is injured. You need to recuperate in Preston!”
At this moment, he had to persuade him.
The Ludwig incident was too complicated.
It was far from being as simple as Old Man Zito and Ernest Lanford had said.
With King Braydon’s personality, if he partic.i.p.ated in this matter and went to the capital, he would definitely kill.
At that time, there would definitely be big trouble, and it was very likely that it would affect the northern army.
Old Man Zito and Ernest looked at each other and cupped their fists. “The northern army is the continuation of Ludwig. As long as the northern army is well, we have no regrets!”
“Shut up, you two!”
Braydon’s eyes were like swords as he stared coldly at Tristan and asked, “Little monkey, tell me, did you already know about Ludwig?”
Hatcher Murphey was shocked by this question.
None of them would hide anything from King Braydon.
This little monkey Tristan Yandell, what was he playing at?
Coincidentally, in the Neal family manor, a loud voice sounded, “Here I come! Awoo, hahaha! Brother, I’m coming!”
From far away, he knew who it was just from the voice.
Other than that little fool Luke Yates, no other person dared to act so casually in front of King Braydon.
Luke Yates barged into the Neal family’s manor with candied haws.
“Why is this demon king here?” Hatcher’s mouth twitched.
“How would I know!” Tristan felt a headache coming on.
The Neal family manor was already in a mess. Why did Luke Yates, this little fool, suddenly come over to join in the fun?
When Luke arrived at the Neal family’s place, he was naturally familiar with the place as he ran over very quickly.
“Why are you here?” Braydon frowned.
“To play with you. Brother, don’t worry. Even if I’m not around, no one in the six provinces of southern Hansworth will dare to cause trouble!”
Luke patted his chest and swore.
The corners of Hatcher and Tristan’s mouths twitched slightly. They roughly understood why the martial artists of the six provinces of southern Hansworth did not dare to cause trouble.
Because Luke Yates was not a good person!
Even if the martial artists were well-behaved, this fellow would still go and torment them for no reason.
There were countless martial arts clans living in the six provinces of southern Hansworth. Every year, there were as many as a hundred people who went to capital garrison to sue Luke Yates!
All of them were suppressed by Westley Hader.
If the little fool had not been born in the northern army and had not grown up with the three sons of the north, Westley Hader would have dealt with him long ago.
Luke’s nickname was not only the Great Demon King, but also the Rolling Meat Knife!
He was the biggest troublemaker in southern Hansworth, with a main team of ten thousand guards under him.
Last year, there were rumors that the southern Hansworth main team had secretly supported the opening of the largest black market in the country for martial artists to trade spiritual herbs. Every time the market opened, tens of thousands of martial artists would gather.
The commander of southern Hansworth actually supported the establishment of a martial arts market.
This was a blatant challenge to the ironclad law!
In the end, it alarmed the governor of the capital garrison, Westley Hader. He was furious and personally led his troops to southern Hansworth.
G.o.d knows how the little fool got the news in advance.
He had actually taken the initiative and openly led his troops to sweep through the entire black market. He directly confiscated all the spiritual herbs.
Westley did not even get a single hair when he went over.
The little fool made him so angry that he trembled, but he could not find any evidence.
There were also many other things that were done by the southern Hansworth main team.
The main team members under this little fool held the ashes of the ancestors of the martial artists’ families hostage and extorted spiritual herbs from them. They were so angry that they went to the capital garrison to complain.
In the end, the little fool actually fed the ashes to the dogs.
His tricks were endless; there were simply too many to count.
The martial arts forces, sects, aristocratic families, and families of the six provinces of southern Hansworth had all suffered in recent years.
Therefore, there was no need to worry about southern Hansworth at all.
With Luke Yates there, the martial artists of the various families would rather hide from all the trouble. Who would dare to provoke this troublemaker?
Currently, in the villa courtyard.
Luke nibbled on the candied haws, looking completely out of place.
“Commander Yates!” Old Man Zito and Ernest Lanford cupped their fists.
“You two old fogeys are the survivors of the Ludwig army, right?” Luke tilted his head and grinned.
“Frazer Zito, the vice commander of Ludwig, and Cesar Lichtman of the third legion!” Hatcher explained.
However, Luke was not surprised at all. It seemed that he had received the news in advance.
He had come for this matter.
Luther Carden was in charge of the 100,000 hidden agents in the north. After receiving the secret order from Braydon, he started to investigate Old Man Zito and Ernest. In the end, he investigated the southern Hansworth region as well.
The mountains of Ludwig belonged to southern Hansworth, and Luke Yates was alerted. Thinking that there was something good to be gained, he went over.
The little fool was from the northern army and was very familiar with the black-robed guards. When he received the news, Luther asked him to personally go to Preston to deliver something.
This item was a jade scepter.
It was green in color and was exquisitely carved. There was a lotus flower on it that was extremely lifelike.
Luke took it out from his bosom and pouted. “This is what Second Brother Luther asked me to send over. I couldn’t figure out what it was even after fiddling with it for such a long time. Second Brother Luther said that you will know once you see it.”
Everyone looked at the jade scepter.
Old Man Zito looked over and asked in a low voice, “Where did you get this?”
“The imperial guards of the northern army secretly investigated your ident.i.ties and obtained it in the Ludwig mountain range.”
Luke had a candied haws in his mouth. He glanced at Old Man Zito from the corner of his eyes and muttered in his heart. Was this really the former vice commander of Ludwig, Frazer Zito?
It did not look like it!
As the commander of southern Hansworth, Luke had been entrenched in Ludwig for many years.
Luke knew a lot about the event forty years ago.
When Luke was appointed as the commander of southern Hansworth, he had received a secret order from Braydon to investigate everything about the Ludwig army forty years ago.
This matter was a secret investigation. Second Brother Luther and the others did not know much about it.
Braydon took the jade scepter and flipped through it gently, saying, “A grandmaster-level carving skill. It should be the twin jades from the Ludwig army, right?”
“Yes, Sir!” Old Man Zito did not deny it.
He was in charge of this item back then.
It was later lost.
Unexpectedly, the twin jades had appeared once more.
“The twin jades of Ludwig is rumored to be related to a shocking secret. Only the successive successors of the Ludwig army can inherit this item,” Tristan said in shock.
“Back then, the next commander of the Ludwig army had already been confirmed to be vice commander Frazer Zito.”
Luke knew about this part of history.
Old Man Zito squatted on the ground and continued smoking without saying a word.
The peerless figure of the past had now ended up like this.
Braydon took a closer look at the jade scepter, but he could not see any secrets in it, so he threw it out.
Old Man Zito was shocked and furious. He suddenly stood up and caught the jade scepter firmly. He said in shock and anger, “What are you doing?”
“The twin jades was under your control back then, so now it also belongs to you!”
“The former vice commander of Ludwig shouldn’t be so dispirited!” Braydon stood with his hands behind his back.
