Chapter 217 219 Shocking Bad News
"Miss Xi'er, I happen to have some news about your family here. Do you want to hear it?"
When Malifu saw Xi'er, he suddenly remembered the information he had just received this morning.
"what news?"
Xier immediately asked Mari Fudao.
"Well, why don't we finish the meal and I'll talk to you, so as not to affect the atmosphere of the meal!"
Malifu thought for a while, and felt that it was a bit inappropriate to tell Xier the news under the circumstances.
"What the hell is going on like this?"
Alonzo asked Malifudao without thinking about it.
The others understood the meaning of Malifu's words and remained silent.
Since Malifu said so, it is obviously bad news.
Alonzo also felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere, and immediately started to eat sullenly, not daring to say anything.
In this way, everyone had their own concerns and finished the meal in a dull atmosphere.
Ben also observes Xier's expression from time to time, Xier looks very calm.
Xi'er suddenly put down the bowl and chopsticks, "You can tell me any news now, otherwise everyone will be even less interested in eating."
"Yes, it's all my fault. It's my quick talk that affects everyone's mood when eating."
Malifu said to everyone with an apologetic face.
"Tell me, what's the news?"
Seeing that Xier was mentally prepared, Jason asked Ma Lifu.
"I think you all know about Ward's rebellion?"
Malifu also put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hands, and sat up straight.
"This is big news. Of course we know about it. I heard that it is still in Tiha, which is not too far from us."
Ben told them all they knew.
"Yes, in Tiha, do you know who was sent by Yang to confront Ward?"
Ma Lifu asked them with a smile.
"Is it my grandfather?"
Xier felt a little uneasy.
"It's not your grandfather, it's your father."
Malifu said lightly.
"What happened? Can't you finish it in one breath? Say it sentence by sentence here?"
Ben said to Malifu impatiently.
He can't bear to talk like this, it's too tantalizing.
"Master Marshall followed Yang's order to go to Tiha to defend against Ward's invasion. When the outcome was clear, Lord Marshall persisted in fighting until the last moment, and died on the battlefield."
Malifu finally made things clear in one breath.
After hearing the news, Xier did not yell. Instead, she acted extremely calm, so calm that it scared Jason and the others.
"May your sorrow be changed."
Malifu spoke softly to Xier.
"Is your news accurate?"
Ben was worried about Seele now.
"We have never missed the big and small intelligence of the Black Crow organization."
Malifu has absolute confidence in the authenticity of the intelligence.
"Damn Ward! I thought he was a good man when I was in Cadius! No idea!"
Alonzo pounded the table angrily.
"This can't be blamed on Ward. In a confrontation between the two armies, casualties are inevitable. If Lord Marshall is on the stronger side and kills Ward, can we say that Lord Marshall is a bad guy?"
Malifu made a fair statement.
"That's right, what Malifu said makes sense. Who can tell who is right and who is wrong on the battlefield?"
Jason sighed softly.
"Sister Xi'er, can you say something? We are very worried that you have been silent like this."
Seeing that Xi'er kept that expression and didn't say a word, Wei Lian felt really uneasy.
"Yeah, Xi'er...you can cry if you want to."
Ben pulled Xi'er and said to him, looking at Xi'er like this, Ben was extremely anxious.
"I won't cry. Don't worry, I'm fine. Originally, the mission of our Bell family is to always prepare for the sacrifice of life for the royal family. Not only will I not be sad, but I will also be proud of my father."
Xier smiled wryly and said to everyone, although he said that, but from his expression, even a nervous person like Alonzo could see that Xier was very sad.
"Okay, I'm a little sleepy, I want to take a rest, so I won't accompany you guys!"
After saying that, Xier turned around and prepared to leave.
"Sister Xier, I will accompany you!"
Stand up immediately.
"No need, I'm not a child, I need someone to sleep with me, so you can stay here with your third brother!"
After Xi'er declined Weilian, she left.
"I gonna go see!"
After Xi'er left, Ben was really worried, so he followed him out.
Ben came to the door of Xi'er's room and stretched out his hand. He wanted to knock on the door, but he heard a burst of crying inside the room.
Ben hesitated again and again, and finally put his hand down again, sitting quietly at the door listening to Xi'er's crying, silently accompanying her in sadness.
On the other side, Ward has already taken his troops to Cadius.
In Cadius' palace, Yang was sitting on the throne with several beauties in his arms.
"King, Ward's army is coming to Cadius soon, and you are still having fun all day, how can this work?"
Walkley anxiously looked at Yanti, who was hugging left and right, and suggested.
"Can you blame me? It's not because your eldest son didn't live up to his expectations and was defeated by Ward in just one battle."
When Yang spoke, he did not forget to tease the beautiful woman in his arms.
"King, if it wasn't for your delay in sending reinforcements to Tiha, my elder brother wouldn't have been defeated so easily!"
Walkley's second son was full of resentment.
"What? Is it reasonable after the battle is defeated? Send reinforcements to Tiha. What will happen to me, Cadius? Who will protect me?"
In the past month, Yang has done nothing else at all, but has been dispatching all the troops in the Nine Cities in the central part to Cardius, for no other reason than to protect himself.
"Is the king just going to wait for Ward to knock on the door?"
Walkley has been completely disappointed in Yang through Yang's actions in the past month.
Now the king has fallen into an unprecedented predicament, he is still accompanied by beautiful women all day long, and he never leaves his hand with wine.
"Now that Cardius has hoarded [-] elite soldiers, and they are well-equipped, and with Lord Walkley here, I don't believe that Ward can still come in?"
Yang looked calm.
"Even if we are not afraid of Ward or anything, this is a national disaster after all. I still hope that the king will pay attention to this matter instead of living a life of wine and meat every day."
Walkley still wanted to persuade Yang to go on the right path.
"Aren't you annoying? How long have I been king? How can I not enjoy the feeling of being a king? Can't you fulfill your duty as prime minister and let me handle these things?"
Yang said to Walkley a little irritably.
