Tome of Blood Chapter 282

As Charlotte's voice fell, Earl Gaston, who was wearing a Boulder-style commander's armor, entered the tent.

Different from Earl Gaston in everyone's impression, although he still wears the Boulder-style lord's armor today, he does not wear the badge representing the Boulder Standing Army on his right chest.

Instead, he wears a coat of arms with two swords intertwined on his left chest.

Moreover, it is still worn upside down.

Some sharp-eyed nobles quickly noticed the badge on Earl Gaston's chest.

Heraldry is a must-learn etiquette for every nobleman, and it naturally includes the family emblems of various famous families. As a northern nobleman and a member of the Duchy of Boulder, the nobles in the tent naturally paid attention to the coat of arms on Gaston's chest. The badge was no stranger, and he recognized that it was the family crest of the Gaston family.

However, if the badge is worn on the left chest differently than usual, and if it is hung upside down...it will be very interesting.

The coat of arms hangs upside down!

This is the way nobles choose to wear it when they think that the lord is innocent and choose to raise the flag to rebel against the lord...

By the way, almost all the nobles in the Castel rebels wear their family emblems in this way.

Some nobles with keen observation quickly discovered this detail, and the tent gradually became commotion:

"It's Earl Gaston!"

"The coat of arms hangs upside down? He...he wants to announce a break with Boulder?!"

"God Lord! This...what the **** is going on?"

For a while, the nobles of the North Land were talking about it.

Earl Gaston ignored the nobles' comments, and stood beside Charlotte slightly.

"His Excellency the Earl of Castel."

He greeted slightly and performed a noble courtesy towards Charlotte.

"His Excellency Earl Gaston."

Charlotte also bent down to return the salute, performing a noble and lady salute, and her movements were quite skilled.

This is just a formal etiquette after meeting nobles of the same rank.

However, what few people noticed was that when Charlotte bowed down to return the gift, Earl Gaston quietly gave way to avoid receiving the gift himself.

Not only that, he didn't raise his head completely until Charlotte finished returning the salute, like a servant waiting for his master.

Of course, no one could notice these obscure details. The attention of all the nobles has long been attracted by the explosion news announced by Charlotte.

"Lord Earl Gaston, are you... wanting to rebel against the third prince's rule over Boulder?!"

Viscount Lien-Castel spoke and asked the doubts in his heart for all the nobles.

After hearing what the old Viscount said, Earl Gaston looked at the northern nobles in the tent.

He looked around for a week, and said in a deep voice:

"That's right, as the husband of Lady Eleanor and the current Duke of the Duchy of Boulder, His Royal Highness the Third Prince, after coming to Boulder, he perversely suppressed the local nobles everywhere, threatened and lured him, and even set up all kinds of conspiracies to get rid of him." All kinds of disgraceful means to forcibly deprive the principality of the title of nobility..."

"He has already tarnished the glory of the nobility, he is a complete tyrant!"

"Not only that, he even had contacts with the Blood Demon Cult, turned his back on the glory of the God Lord, and threw himself into the embrace of the demon!"

As soon as these words came out, the nobles of the North were in an uproar:

"What? Forcibly depriving the title of nobility? Associated with the Blood Demon Sect?"

"God, Lord! Is Your Highness the Third Prince crazy?!"

Even Baron Angus, who had remained calm all this time, changed his expression slightly, and asked solemnly:

"Lord Gaston... Are what you said true?"

Facing the suspicious eyes of many nobles, Earl Gaston nodded slowly:

"certainly."

"Since I chose to resist, it is naturally because I found decisive evidence."

"Even Castel's rebellion has the support of His Highness the Third Prince behind the scenes."

"To tell you the truth, His Royal Highness the Third Prince has long been determined to win Castel, and this rebellion is just the beginning. In fact, His Highness the Third Prince has already united with the Violet Principality and is planning to carve up the Earl of Castel together."

"And my... original duty was also to be a party to the war, to unite with the rebels when your side was fighting the rebels, and to turn against them..."

As he spoke, Earl Gaston began to tell the nobles of the Northland about the various attack plans of the third prince against Castel...

As the commander of Boulder, he immediately chose the family he would be loyal to the third prince. He was very clear about the various plans of the third prince. The local nobles were terrified.

Even Charlotte couldn't help but look at him a few more times.

I don't know if it's the effect of mental manipulation and memory modification. The other party's confession is more detailed than what he confessed to her at the beginning. I'm afraid it's not because of Charlotte's control, he has "sincerely" regarded himself as resisting the third prince fighter.

However, regarding the most sensitive part, which is also the easiest to make the resistance of the nobles become logical, and even the so-called "collaboration with the Blood Demon Sect" that was recognized and even supported by other lords, Earl Gaston obviously didn't know more Things are discussed completely according to Charlotte's design.

There is no other way. The crime of colluding with the Blood Demon Sect is too serious in the New Moon Kingdom. Even if the third prince really did it, he would definitely not tell others easily.

In the end, Charlotte only proved this by relying on the fact that she was "attacked by the Gorefiend Cultist" when she met with Earl Gaston.

This was actually intentionally pouring dirty water on the third prince. After all, the so-called "attack of the Gorefiend Cultist" was completely directed and acted by Earl Gaston, but it was used by Charlotte.

But Charlotte uses it without guilt.

After all... After confirming that the rebel army is really supported by the third prince, and combining Nisi's experience in the Legris family, Charlotte is almost 100% sure that the third prince must have something to do with the Gorefiend Sect!

"His Royal Highness the Third Prince is ambitious, and he has already used all means to compete with His Royal Highness the Second Prince for the right to inherit the throne of An..."

"As the commander of Tulip, I was ordered to join forces with the rebels and attack Castel."

"But as an old friend of the Castel family, I didn't want to do this, so I asked His Excellency the Earl of Castel to meet at the border. I wanted to give a private warning, but I didn't expect to be directly attacked by the Gorefiend Sect. ..."

"If it wasn't for His Excellency Castel's early preparations, I'm afraid I would have been controlled by the Gorefiend Sect at this moment."

"His Royal Highness the Third Prince will not give up until he achieves his goal, so after discussing with His Excellency Castel, I decided to pretend that I have been controlled by the Gorefiend Sect and continue to act according to the 'order'."

"Actually, it is to help you all, crush Castel's rebellion, and expose the conspiracy of the third prince!"

"Everyone, after this rebellion, I am afraid that the third prince will formally declare war on Castel soon, and take back Castel's title with high-sounding reasons."

"Not only that, but as the richest territory in Boulder, the third prince has always had the idea of turning Castel into a direct jurisdiction, and at the same time entrusting the territory to his cronies..."

"At that time, the territories of all your families may be in crisis!"

"Everyone, the third prince is definitely not a lord. My Gaston family is unwilling to be with such a tyrant. For the future of Boulder and the future of the new moon, we must resist."

I continued to clean up the house for a day. I was on a business trip last week and didn't have time to clean it up, but it ended up being pulled again. Sad!
