He originally thought that today would be a boring but leisurely day like usual. After all, in the Golden Feather Palace, there were not so many conflicts and assassins waiting for you to deal with. Most of the time it was just routine work.
But he didn't expect that so many noble children would gather together to cause trouble today.
It would have been bad enough if they had just caused trouble, but the key point was that they were encountered by the patrol team he led.
If he were an ordinary person, he could easily let his knights control the troublemakers first.
But the people in front of him were all young masters and young ladies from the kingdom's top noble families. Not to mention controlling them, he even had to speak to them in a nice voice, so as not to offend any of them for no reason and bring unnecessary disasters.
"Masters and ladies, please calm down!"
Vali wiped his sweat off his face, and while ordering the knights to help everyone up, he said in a friendly manner:
"Everyone, this is the Golden Feather Palace, private fighting is not allowed. If you really have any conflicts, you can sit down and talk. If you really can't reach an agreement, we can also meet His Majesty and let His Majesty make the decision."
"Sir Knight, you saw it too!"
Luo Ning stood up with the help of the knight and spoke first, angrily: "These people not only relied on their strong strength, but also injured my two followers."
As he spoke, he stopped the knight next to him from helping David and Tom up.
"I'm sorry, my followers are seriously injured and cannot stand up. Let them lie down."
He then said to Wally, "They relied on their numbers to attack me. If you hadn't arrived in time, I would have died under their fighting skills and magic!"
"You farted!"
The red-haired man from the Vera family was helped up. When he heard what Roning said, he couldn't help but curse.
"Sir Vali, please don't be deceived by his words. It was his followers who were rude to us first!"
His friends immediately joined in the condemnation, and the scene became chaotic for a while.
Ronin shouted, "My knights have been beaten so badly that they can't even stand up now. Lord Vali, please seek justice for them! Forget about apologies, but at least you can't give them a penny less in medical expenses of 5,000 gold coins each!"
"Five thousand per person, why don't you just go and rob?" someone asked in a roar.
The two women even began to accuse Roning of having no noble qualities and being a scoundrel.
Anyway, they say theirs and Roning says his.
"Oh, by the way, they just slandered my family and teamed up to kill me. On behalf of myself and the entire Wushan family, I demand 50,000 gold coins from you as compensation for the loss of reputation!"
The red-haired man and his companions were already very nervous when they heard that Roning wanted 5,000 gold coins for medical treatment. They didn't expect that the other party would ask them to pay 50,000 gold coins as compensation for reputation loss. They could no longer suppress their anger.
He immediately drew his sword and was about to start fighting again, but fortunately Wally was quick-witted and stopped the second wave of conflict that was about to break out.
While they were arguing, more and more nobles came over after hearing the noise.
Although they had not yet figured out what was going on, after seeing the identities of the troublemakers, they knew that this must be a very exciting event.
Some people, out of a desire to watch the fun, even sent their men to notify other nobles.
Seeing that the situation was getting more and more serious, the sweat on Wally's forehead was getting more and more. He decided to quickly separate the two groups.
"Your Excellency, Master Cross, Master Fauquindo, Master Harrington, Miss Sally, and Miss Melanie, I'm sorry that I can't handle this matter. Otherwise, please go back to your residence first, and I will arrange for the court doctor to treat your injuries. At the same time, I will report this matter to His Majesty the King and ask him to make the decision. How about that?"
Wally's words seemed to have an effect, and the quarrel gradually subsided.
Cross and the others originally only wanted to spread some negative news about Ronin. They had no intention of fighting, let alone causing trouble in front of His Majesty the King.
The development of things so far has exceeded their expectations.
On the other hand, Roning's expression was more relaxed.
"Sir Vali, I fully agree with your suggestion! Please send my men back for treatment and inform His Majesty of this matter. The attack on me and the slander against the Wushan family cannot be let go so easily!"
As he said this, he glanced at Cross and the others fiercely.
"If this matter can be left unpunished, will these people be able to slander whoever they want in the future? If the Marquis family cannot protect their own honor, will the other earls, viscounts, and barons in the kingdom not even dare to breathe in front of them in the future?"
Wally didn't dare to say yes, nor did he dare to say no. He always felt that there was a trap in these words. He could only wipe the cold sweat from his forehead and nod twice.
Roning didn't want to engage in any more useless arguments in public, so he immediately asked the knights to help Tom and David up and walk towards the yard not far away.
Let's wait until we meet Bruno to start the quarrel.
"What should we do?" Facundo of Screaming Island asked in a low voice.
Cross Vera glanced at Ronin's departing back and clenched his fists in anger, but the slightest force aggravated the injury on his chest, causing him to gasp.
"Go back first, and talk later!"
Although both parties dispersed, the onlookers did not leave immediately.
Knight Valli gestured to everyone to disperse in a friendly manner, but a noble lady asked him when he would report the matter to His Majesty, and hoped that Valli could inform them when His Majesty dealt with the matter, and they also wanted to go and listen.
Vali had no choice but to agree vaguely, and then hurriedly left this place of trouble under the pretext of meeting His Majesty.
Only then did everyone leave reluctantly.
Soon, the conflict swept across the entire Golden Feather Palace like a storm.
Blanche was taking a bath, recalling the good times of the day, but the news brought by the maid froze the sweet smile on her face.
It had only been a short time since the two of them separated, and yet Luo Ning was beaten up by a group of people.
Driven by worry, Blanche no longer cared about her image and immediately asked someone to take her to Roning's residence to see what was going on.
Roning didn't know anyone here, and Reese had not entered the palace. When Blanche came over, she could introduce him to the identities of the other people.
It would have been fine if he hadn't introduced himself. As soon as he did, Roning felt like all his enemies had arrived.
The eldest grandson of the Duke of Vera, the red-haired knight, Cross Vera; the eldest grandson of the Count of Screaming Island, Facundo Fleming; the second son of the Grand Duke of Ferensburg, Harrington Gregor, and the eldest daughter, Milannie Gregor; the daughter of Count Jesús of Moonlight Valley, Sally Oduin.
"I heard that cousin Milannie has already arranged marriage with Cross, and it is estimated that they will be married in the next two years."
Blanche continued, "Also, cousin Sally is a mid-level magician, and Uncle Jesus wants her to marry the Fleming family, a magic family."
It turned out that these three men and two women were not only friends, but their respective families were also in a state of marriage or about to marry.
Luo Ning frowned as he listened to Blanche's introduction. (End of this chapter)
