As Tana and El walked to the White Stone Tower, their eyes touched the stone walls and the huge doorway, and their hearts began to beat involuntarily.

Woolley waited for them in the small parlor, wearing only a wide bathrobe, and barefoot, sitting in a large wooden chair, beside which stood Hippo and two slave girls.

Gauguin brought Tana and El to Woolley.

As Tana and El knelt down to salute, Woolley's gaze swept over the two, then he sighed and said, "Just kneel there."

Tana and El, who were already halfway up, were startled at the same time, and then knelt down again in trepidation.

"Look up and look at me. Woolley said that, Tana and Ellio hesitated, and at the same time looked up at Woolley.

In their sight, Wu Lai still looked like a teenager, but the look in his eyes was more majestic and faintly cold.

"Stand down first. Woolley waved his hand gently, and Gauguin, Hippo, and the two slave girls bowed at the same time and retreated.

After everyone left the meeting room, Woolley's eyes were taken back from El's face: "Tell me, who are you, why did you come to frame me?"

Tana and El's looked at each other, and after a little hesitation, Tana trembled and threw his body on the floor, but his mouth said loudly: "Dear citizen, how can you say that? The origin of our two has been very clear, if the citizen still has doubts about this, Tana and El are at the disposal of the adult, and they will die without complaint.

El on the side also hurriedly fell to the ground.

"Shut up!" Woolley frowned, and asked rhetorically, "Do you two still think this is just a temptation? Do you still think you're living under the protection of some people?"

"That's enough!" Wu Lai stood up, pointed to the two people lying on the ground, and scolded very dryly, "Do you know what I hate the most at the moment? I hate you for believing too much in your own IQ, or too much in other people's arrangements for you! Okay, if you don't accept it, then I will let you open your eyes today, and let you know that in this world, there can be people who can see your disguise clearly and clearly, even when they are drunk!"

"My ox caravan of Woolleglindor passed through the city from Menia on the way back, and stopped at the town of Ping Fan on the way, yes, it stopped on the side of the road, but, I'm sure, those slave escorts under my command will not be so negligent that they don't even notice that someone has secretly gotten into the car, so you two are not in the middle of the road, but in the car during the checkpoint in Menia City, and at that time, there are soldiers to cover you two!"

"The story you made up sounds very reasonable, but in fact it is full of loopholes! I won't talk about the part of the adjutant general, let's just talk about this firewood house, is that a place where people are locked up? Even ordinary citizens like me will build dungeons and prison rooms in their mansions to punish disobedient slaves, this is the standard configuration of citizens' mansions, otherwise it will not be enough to deter those fools who dare to commit crimes! Not to mention the official residence of the deputy general! Well, let's assume that the dungeon in the Adjutant General's residence is full of people, and there is no way to put you two in the firewood room, and you two happen to find a chance to escape from the firewood room, then please tell me, did you two escape over the wall, or did you swagger out of the main entrance?"

I have luckily been blessed by the god Amun, you two fools, and a great fog has risen to obscure your figures, so that you two can leave the mansion without any difficulty, then, how did you two get out of the city-state of Menia, don't tell me that the lieutenant's mansion is outside the city, I happen to know its exact location. "

It's okay if you don't admit it, I went on to say that two slaves who had been locked up for more than a month and beaten for almost a month were covered in whip marks, and their skin and hair must have been dull and dull, how could they be as healthy as you two?!".

"Although the insignia on your two bodies is the same, Tana's brand is obviously greater than El's, why is this? Let me tell you! That's because when Tana was branded, his age was younger than the age when El was branded, and as he grew older, his body grew taller, and the longer the imprint, the more his deformation expanded! So, among the two of you, at least Tana was not branded a month ago.

"Furthermore, when I appeared in front of the two of you, although your expressions looked panicked, frightened, and overwhelmed, but El was showing her body intentionally or unintentionally, yes, your body is very seductive, even if it is stained with dust and covered with whip marks, your lines are still enough to drive a man crazy, and while El is doing all this, you, Tana, you are observing me, narrating and observing ......

." "At that time, I gave you three choices, go back to Menes, let you both go, stay and hide, if it is a real fugitive, you will definitely choose the second, because the first choice means death, and the third means re-enslavement, and the real fugitive slave will not choose either of them, unless he is an idiot, or, if he has other intentions.

"You two are the ones with ulterior motives, of course, if you meet not me, but another person, your plan has half a chance of success, after all, El is a real beauty, but it's a pity, you met me, although I like beautiful women, but I will not forget my ideals because of beautiful women, in order to achieve my ideals, even when drinking or sleeping, I am a hundred times more vigilant. "

I believe you are from the official residence of Adjutant Yijiang, because I have met with him yesterday and had a friendly meeting, and then I have become a cooperative relationship with him, so not only do you two no longer need to continue the task, but since yesterday, your life has been in my hands

!" "No! no way!" Thana was completely stunned when El blurted out.

"Nothing is impossible. Woolley smiled slightly, and his voice was a little softer, "I already know everything, so I didn't even ask you two about your interest."

Immediately, Wu Lai threw the contract signed with Yi Jiang in front of the two: "Look at it, I believe that you two are literate and must know the private seal of Deputy General Yi Jiang."

Ta Na was stunned, and was about to reach out to pick it up, El had already taken the first step to grasp the contract in his hand, and when he spread it out, their eyes fell on the end of the contract, where Yi Jiang's private seal, Mikoyan's temple priest's seal, and Wu Lai's private seal were conspicuously juxtaposed.

Tana and El's distractions.

Woolly sat back in his chair with a smile: " Now, I will give you three more choices, first, to become a slave to be trampled on by me, and for the rest of your life, do not expect to gain my mercy, second, do an errand for me, there is danger but will not give you your life, after I am done, I will send you two back to Menia City, and let Vice Yi Jiang decide the fate of you two in the future, but I will give appropriate advice according to your performance when you do the errand, and the advice that is beneficial to you, and third, die under the sword of Ma Long, or, under the whip of Heiwa, start choosing now, I have no patience to talk nonsense with you anymore。 "

I'll be first!" El bravely met Woolley's gaze.

"It seems that you are very confident in your beauty. Woolley smiled and looked at Tana, "What about you?" "

I, I'll pick the second one." Tana bowed her head.

"Very good choice. Woolley looked at El and then at Tana, "It's exactly what I expected, so I have no reason to regret it, do I?"

In the evening, an ox cart full of firewood and grass drove out of the White Rock Tower.

When the night completely covered the whole city, Wu Lai's carriage also drove out of the white stone building, slowly towards the main street, not long after, the carriage drove through a street corner, a man in black standing on the street corner bowed respectfully to the carriage, waved the torch in his hand, and then turned to leave, after seeing the back of the man in black disappear, Wu Lai on the car floated a smile.

The carriage continued to move, and the crisp sound of horses' hooves was heard far away in the evening breeze.

After a few more moments, Woolley's carriage stopped, and in front of him was the mansion of Tribune Aesop.

Woolley jumped out of the carriage ......

Although it has been a long time to lie in bed, Dorjee still can't sleep. At dinner, he had a big argument with his wife, who had persuaded him to befriend Woolley, who had been rewarded handsomely for her first courtesy.

"Their carpentry workshops have earned thousands of gold coins a month. Dorjee's wife said.

Then, Dorjee became angry.

"You know what? Woolledlindo will be finished soon!" Dorjee growled.

Immediately, his wife was furious.

As a result of the couple's quarrel, the dishes in the dining room shattered and at least three slaves were slightly injured, and at last, a furious Dorjee entered the bedroom and closed the door, while his wife sneered and led the maid to another bedroom.

"Tonight, if he wants to call anyone to sleep, he must tell me at the first time!" Dorjee's wife instructed the housekeepers as he left.

She was obviously a little worried, because at least in the past few days, Dorjee was in no mood to provoke women.

"Why hasn't there been any movement yet?" said Dorjee to himself, frowning as he rubbed his fat palm against his equally fat chin.

"Vice Admiral Yi Jiang won't change his mind, right?" Dorjee changed his sleeping position, and his gaze swept to the half-burned candle on the lamp shelf in the corner.

Immediately, there was a commotion outside the window......

After a while, Dorjee walked into the living room in a huff: "Aesop, you are too ......" Dorjee's words were not finished, because he not only saw Aesop who came with troops in the middle of the night, but also saw Woolly standing beside Aesop with a smile on his face.

"Oh, An Minguan Dorjee, it seems that you have really slept, I'm very sorry. Isopi glanced at Dorjee with a smile, raised his hand, and pointed at Woolley, "I actually don't want to see you at night, but the citizen of Woolley Grin has just reported to me that you, Anmin Guan Dorjee, are a fugitive slave who is secretly hiding in the residence of the deputy general Yijiang in the city of Menia, so I decided to take a look." "

Ridiculous! I am a civil official appointed by the Assyrian Noble Council, how could I do such a thing?!" Dorjee glared at Wu Lai fiercely and argued loudly.

"Yes, it shouldn't be, but, Anmin Guan Dorjee, as far as I know, the number of times you have violated the Assyrian law and the wishes of the noble council is not once or twice. Aesop pulled a scroll from his bosom, "This is an order from Archon Anthony, and he has approved a search of your mansion, so, Anmin Officer Dorjee, please order your men to step aside." "

Missionary Aesop, if you can't find it, you'll have to pay the price!" Dorjee was so angry that his whole body trembled.

"No, I'm just acting on orders, any consequences, that's on the shoulders of Archon Anthony, and it has nothing to do with me, besides, what you just said contains intimidation, if you dare to repeat it again, I don't mind getting angry for the sake of maintaining my dignity, Dorjean Citizen!" Aesop's face turned cold.

Dorjee hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and waved his arm: "Okay! You search! I'll reason with you when the search is over

! And you Wu Lai! Your death time has come!" "Oh, I don't think so, Dorjee An, I'm only fourteen years old, and you, hum, between the two of us, it seems that your death will come faster, you should hurry up and pray now, if you really find a fugitive slave in your house......" Wu Lai smiled slightly, and stopped the end of the conversation.

When he saw Woolley's smile, Dorjee's heart thumped.

It didn't take long for Dorjee's heart to beat again, because the soldiers Isolt sent to search the backyard brought back a young strange man, neatly dressed but not very good-looking.

"What's going on??!," Dorjee muttered inwardly.

The young man was dragged by the soldiers to the front of Woolley and Aesop, and when Aesop shouted at him to kneel, he suddenly struggled to break free from the soldiers who were dragging him, and jumped in the direction of Dorjee, and knelt on the ground with a "poof".

"Lord Dorjee, you said you would protect me, Lord Dorjee, you can't let them take me!" the young man exclaimed with a panicked expression.

Dorjee's head suddenly dizzy.

Aesop frowned, and then ordered the soldiers to grab the young man back in front of him: "Say, what's your name?, where did you escape from?

!" "Lord Dorjee!" The young man ignored Aesop's question, and desperately turned his head and shouted at Dorjee, "Lord Dorjee, I will be loyal to you! Please don't let them take me! You can't forget your promise! Golden wine jug! Golden wine jug!"

"What golden wine jug?" Aesop and Dorjee were stunned at the same time, and they thought in their hearts.

"Lord Aesop, we just found this item from the pantry in the kitchen of Lord Dorjee's house, and please take a look at the emblem on it. The two soldiers brought to Aesop a chest two cubits long and one cubit wide and one cubit high.

Aesop glanced at the wooden box, leaned over and opened the lid of the box, and after looking at it carefully for a while, she closed the lid with a "bang", and looked at Dorjee's eyes with even more coldness: "Dorjee Anminguan, you really dare to do it." "

What the hell is in the box?!" Dorjee was stunned and blurted out immediately.

Aesop snorted coldly, and raised his right hand: "Come on, bring this fugitive slave and the stolen goods back

!" "Stolen goods?!" Dorjee was stunned and couldn't help but shout loudly, "Aesop, you are framed!"
