Chapter 97 Reversal

The internal layout of the small conference room is actually quite similar to the living room of the squire and nobles. After entering the door, you do not enter the conference room directly, but a corridor. On one side of the corridor is a larger conference room, and you can clearly hear the voices inside; on the other hand, it looks like a small room, which is probably a small room where the participants temporarily rest (if the meeting is held very long).

After they entered, they immediately brought the door back. The little girl held his hand. Asu Rufate clearly felt her body trembling as soon as the door closed.

"Faced everything like a queen." Ashu Rufat whispered. He made a gesture, signaling the little girl not to go in first, and then walked into the conference room with great strides.

The moment he stepped into the venue, dozens of eyes immediately focused on him. Almost everyone noticed this uninvited guest.

"Who are you?" someone asked. The question was a man who was not very old, sitting in the chair of the conference room. Asu Ruffatt did not know him, but he guessed that this man should be the Farusa who only heard of his name. But he was not sure about this.

"I," Ashrufate did not worry, but carefully glanced around the crowd. Among these people, he actually saw many familiar faces. Everyone was wearing military uniforms and carrying carry weapons, and some were wearing armor. "Come on the orders of Her Majesty the Queen. Which is General Farusa?"

"Queen?" The man who was probably Farusa hummed disdainfully. "Nonsense! The queen is still a child, who are you lying to? Come..."

"Wait, general." A young man next to him suddenly said. "I know this person. His name is Ashurufat, and he is the queen's personal guard."

"You know?"

"I've seen him at...several gatherings." The young officer said. Several other people around him responded one after another. In this case, even Farusa could not deny Ashrufate's identity.

It must be said that whether it was fate or intentional arrangement, Farusa is in a very good position now. He and Ashurufat are far apart, and two people standing next to him who seem to be guards. These two people were wearing full sets of armor, guarding Farusa in the middle one on the left and right. There is no need for other evidence. Just the eyes of these two people, Ashurufat can see that they are definitely not ordinary people. In addition, there is not only one door in this room, but not far from Farusa is the side door. If there is a conflict in the conference room, then Farusa can easily escape from this door.

"The Queen's order, what command did the Queen bring?" Although Farusa's tone was still a little careless, he sat in a straight position. His expression clearly showed that his tone was pretending.

"His name is Ashurufat?" Ashurufat heard someone talking beside him. He looked in the voice and saw an acquaintance - the Baranka who had made a bet and lost. Oh, by the way, I seemed to say at that time that this man named Baranka was one of the officers of the Guards...the leader of the mercenary.

"Yes, I've seen it at a party." The answer to the question was a face that Ashu Rufate had seen. But a little sorry, he couldn't remember the name of the man. "His name is a bit difficult, so I was deeply impressed."

"Queen...Personal Guard..." A ray of light suddenly flashed in Barranca's eyes.

"Hurry up, what kind of order did the Queen bring? It should be the order of the Regent, right?"

"The Duke of Byron launched a rebellion, and the Queen ordered the Guards to go to Eagle Falcon City to quell the rebellion immediately." Ash Rufate said.

"What are you kidding? Duke Byron is the Regent!" Farusa changed his face. He stretched out a hand: "Come it!"

"What do you take?"

"Her Majesty's handwritten edict." Farusa had already figured out the internal relationship. I guess this Ashu Rufate escaped from the royal city to make the last struggle - I really don't know how the Duke arranged it, so he actually let such a dangerous person escape from the Eagle City with a letter. But it doesn't matter. Anyway, the Duke of Byron has always been the regent of the Byron, and almost no one recognizes the handwriting of the little queen. As long as the messenger handed the letter to him, the outcome of the game will be decided. Of course, he can deny the origin of the letter, insist that the letter was forged, and even tore the letter to pieces. No matter what Ashu Rufate wants to do, he will die without evidence and will be able to do nothing.

"Her Majesty's oral order," said Ashu Rufate.

"Are you kidding?" Farusa looked at the stranger. "Although you are the queen's personal guard, can such orders be issued in vernacular terms?" Seeing that the stranger could not provide favorable evidence, he felt relieved, and thus there was no hidden danger.

"Wait, General, this matter is very unusual." Someone said next to him. "It's really strange... The night before yesterday, a fire broke out in the city..."

This cannot be concealed. Because the burning fire was very big at that time, even in the military camp, it could be seen. Moreover, the fires at multiple places at the same time were not like ordinary fires, but more like some turmoil.

"It's just a fire." Farusa replied, "Is there anything strange about the fire? There have been few fires in the Hawk City this year? The burning of a block has also happened... Could it be that we glorious knights go to the city to take charge of putting out the fire?"

“But, that was the fire that rose at the same time…

"It's just a few fires," Farusa replied. "I am the commander of the Guards. If I want to mobilize my troops, I must give me relevant orders." He looked at Ashurufat. "Instead of coming over and saying a few words in vernacular terms. Do you think this is a chamber of commerce, and you can ask for a loan with your own hands?"

He has guessed the rough thing now. What he has to do now is not to ensure that the legion remains unmoved, but to find a way to capture Ashu Rufate. Fortunately, it is not difficult to do this. Anyway, although there are a few people here who know Ashu Rufate and can prove his identity, he just came here alone.

I wonder what kind of mood the little queen would feel when she knew that her last hope burst like a bubble.

"How did you come in?" he asked loudly.

"Of course I came in from the main entrance of the military camp." Ash Rufate replied.

"Military Judge!" he asked another thin man beside him. "What is the crime of an outsider trespassing into the military camp?"

"Ah, execution." The military judge hesitated for a moment and immediately replied. "But the envoy of the royal family is an exception..."

"He is not the envoy of the royal family!" Farusa sneered. "The envoy of the royal family must carry a token to prove his identity. What evidence does he have? Just that 'verbal order' that is empty and untrue? When did you hear that the personal guards were also part-time messengers?"

"But...but...General..."

"I know, after all, he is the queen's personal guard, so it's not appropriate to kill him directly. Be detained first, and wait until I send an envoy to Eagle Falcon City to ask what happened."

The messenger takes one day to go back and forth. In fact, as long as Duke Byron cooperates with him, it is not a big deal to hide this matter... It is nothing to hide it for three or five days. After three or five days, things will have already stabilized. Even if there are some truly loyal royal families in the Guards, they will be helpless. The little queen finally sent her personal guards to ask for help, which is a very correct move. Unfortunately, things in the world are not so simple.

"Who said I was not a messenger?" Ashu Rufate asked.

"Who said you were a messenger?" Farusa asked without hesitation. "Who will prove it?" He knew that he had controlled the situation, and now it was just a game of cats and mice playing with them.

"I said! I'll prove it!" A girl-like voice sounded. Accompanied by this sound, a figure walked out from behind Ash Rufate. Because of the angle and Ash Rufate's body blocking, no one noticed the existence of this little girl.

"This is..." The people who spoke were those who were not familiar with the little girl. But the people here were middle and senior officers. They often had the opportunity to enter the palace, and soon someone shouted. "Her Majesty the Queen?"

Farusa's face turned pale and her arms were placed stiffly on the table. The officers looked at the little girl standing at the door of the conference room. If the little girl was very nervous, at least her face was not expressed. Only the most careful person could find that her fists were clenched tightly and her fingernails were deeply pinched into the rub.

Now, no one has any questions about what Asu Ruffat just said. A new question is in front of everyone, that is, how to choose. It is hard to explain how this scene happened, but suddenly, the whole audience fell silent. People looked at Farusa, the current commander of the Guards Army (everyone knows that Farusa is Duke Byron behind), and at the little queen standing at the door. This choice is actually not easy to make, but once it is made, it may determine a person's life's future, and even the rise and fall of the entire family.

"Listen to everyone!" Farusa suddenly shouted, and the audience was shocked. "This one is not Luvia, Her Majesty Queen Markremiz, she is a fake!"

"Stop it! Take this rebel down immediately!" the little girl shouted immediately.

Ashu Rufate took the front half a step forward, and the two guards of Farusa also came forward and confronted Ashu Rufate. Both sides were tense, but the others were motionless in a suppressed silence and did not know how to choose.

Suddenly, a sword light flashed. Farusa let out a scream, and a long sword pierced his chest from behind. It was Baranka, the mercenary captain in the Guards' army. He took advantage of everyone's attention and quietly walked around behind Farusa and launched a fatal blow.

"I am ordered to kill the rebels!" After pulling out the long sword from Farusa's corpse, Baranka shouted. "Long live the queen!"
