Chapter 150: Thanks to you

Sophia looked at Ethan indifferently and pursed her lips.

Although he didn't say anything, he showed with his eyes that nothing was impossible.

Ethan didn't believe it and continued to look through the information.

When I saw "enema" written in the column for cause of death, I couldn't help but froze.

"How did you get this information? It's just nonsense."

Although Ethan does not know the specific cause of his mother's death, he is certain that his mother's death must be related to heavy metal poisoning.

So what is an “enema”?

Sophia frowned: "Are you questioning the professionalism of the investigation?"

"To put it bluntly, that's the case. I'm pretty sure my mother died of poisoning, not some 'enema'."

Although Ethan knows that medical skills are not good in this era, he does not allow his mother to be stigmatized.

Sophia smiled: "Maybe this term doesn't sound good, but it is the fact.

You may not know about "enema", and few people even know about it in Maruo City.

But this was very popular in the aristocratic circles of the imperial capital a few decades ago.

They believe that removing impurities from the body is beneficial to health.

At that time, the greeting among nobles when meeting was "Have you had your drink today?"

However, all this came to an abrupt end as more and more nobles developed symptoms similar to your mother's before her death.

At that time, my teacher was responsible for treating many nobles.

She believes that enema itself does not cause these problems, but the main cause of these problems lies in the syringe of the enema.

He believed that there might be substances unknown to humans on those metal syringes.

When they enter the human body, they will remain in the human body and cause poisoning.

That’s why this disease is also called ‘enema’ disease.

And you may not know it, but your mother is an avid...lover.

Because she thought this could cure her illness, the more she got sick, the more...

Even your mother's entire family is like this.

They were eventually destroyed for supporting a cult that encouraged 'enema'! "

When Ethan heard this, although it was difficult to accept it, he already understood that this was the fact.

He remembered seeing that big syringe at home, and the principle made sense.

And in terms of concealment, everyone can talk about "enema", but if it's really done, people won't be able to hold a party!

Everything seemed to make sense.

"So, it was just an accident that Rand took away my territory?"

After saying that, Ethan sighed heavily.

Sophia nodded: "I think so, and I think he might have been forced by you."

"Are you kidding me? I forced him to take away my territory?" Ethan looked at Sophia with a ridiculous expression on his face.

"I think so!" Sofia said with a smile: "I have read Rand's information and he is a very disciplined person.

What you may not know is that before your mother married your father, she liked Rand Knight.

Because they are childhood sweethearts.

But even so, he never had any behavior beyond morality with your mother before marriage.

In the words you men care about, your mother was pure and innocent before marrying your father.

Judging from what he does, he has always abided by the rules and would never break them unless absolutely necessary.

I think it was your hostile attitude towards him that made him feel in crisis.

He just had to break the rules.

By the way, you must not think that no matter how good you were in acting when you were a child, a normal person would feel your hostility. "

"Uh..." Ethan was at a loss for words.

Sofia felt very funny when she saw Ethan deflated, covered her mouth, and then said: "Actually, your uncle Rand is very talented.

He has taken care of your territory in an orderly manner. Whether it is development momentum or income, it is considered top-notch among all territories.

Rewards and punishments are also very clear.

Therefore, both the subjects and the servants are sincerely devoted to him.

And the misfortunes you encountered when you were a child were largely the fault of those servants.

You might think why Rand didn't stop?

He is still wrong!

But in fact, few lords would yell at a few maids with complete disregard for dignity like you.

Don’t you feel like you’ve lost too much?

If you don't want to be known as cruel in the future, you'd better not do such stupid things again.

It's best not to take a second look at even internal matters. "

"Well... thank you for the reminder!" Ethan felt a little shattered. He couldn't accept that Rand was forced to rebel: "But even so, he wanted to kill me and sent a killer!"

"Isn't this your own fault?

I watched your duel, and I can only describe it with two words: stunning!

Such a rapid growth rate has greatly exceeded the normal range.

I even wonder if you have obtained some ancient artifact, otherwise there is no way to explain it.

In this case, everyone will feel the crisis. Sofia blinked at Ethan: "I said, your Uncle Rand is a man of rules."

If he really wants to kill you, there will be countless opportunities as you grow up, and you can't avoid them.

Therefore, my dear brother-in-law, Your Majesty the Great Sword Master, your growth is very abnormal.

It has reached an unprecedented level.

Can you tell me the reason?

I'm very curious! "

Ethan finally knew why Sophia helped Rand put in a good word.

While this is true, people can take sides.

She could have spoken for herself, but she didn't.

She just used this excuse to inquire about her secrets in a reasonable and natural way.

And people always say things they shouldn't say when they are unwilling to do so.

But can you speak it yourself?

Innocent!

Ethan immediately changed the subject: "Then how did he take away my territory? I saw the [Territory Declaration] with my own eyes."

Sophia smiled helplessly: "It's also thanks to you."

"Thanks to me?" Ethan was shocked: "What do you mean?"

"Do you still remember what I told you about [territory protection rights]?"

"Remember!" Ethan nodded: "It probably means a territory. If the lord is absent for a long time, the territory will be taken back, but this is like...

Uh...it can't be because I live on campus for a long time! Is this okay? "

Sofia smiled and nodded: "Of course! But just like this, it is not enough for him to legally seize the territory.

Because this law is only enough to make you lose your inheritance rights.

And when he seized the territory, he relied on another important law [reputation priority].

This law refers to the acquisition of a land without one by a prominent local person.

If there is approval from the former lord, it would be even more logical.

You triggered this law by praising your Uncle Rand in front of and behind everyone.

Therefore, everything is given by yourself.

Of course, the law is the law, and it is more difficult to implement it than it is for you and me to just talk.

However, it is clear that your Uncle Rand is a man of ability.

In short, this switch means that your Uncle Rand inherited your territory in a legal and compliant manner!

Listen clearly, it’s inheritance! "

After hearing this, Ethan was shocked!
