Chapter-3: sir may I ask what the king's decree is

Men, women, old and young all fell to the ground, trembling and crying. All the jewelry and accessories had been stripped off, leaving them in a plain and plain state, completely devoid of their former splendor. 

He exuded an air of panic and fear, like a dog that had lost its home. Even the usually dignified head of the family, the former Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Zaman Lark, had disheveled hair and dull eyes, looking extremely shocked. 

"When the building is about to collapse, how can the eggs remain intact? Oh my god, has she arrived at the scene of a house raid? What a tragic start, a disaster." She sighed silently. 

(But, no matter how difficult it is, we have to give it a try, there is no time left.) Countless thoughts flashed through her mind. She quickly digested all the information, accepted the reality, and made a decision at the first opportunity. 

She struggled to stand up and accurately locked onto the man in black who was giving orders and asked. "Sir, may I ask… what does the King's decree say?" 

Daniel walker looked over in surprise. (Was this girl stunned?) He thought in his mind but still answered the question of Wendy Lark. 

"Zaman Lark is dismissed from his post as minister in the ministry of revenue. The marquis title is revoked and investigated. The Lark Mansion is confiscated. The entire Lark family is temporarily imprisoned." 

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire Lark family was terrified. 

(Even the branch family members were implicated? How serious a crime is this?) The branch family members thought. Only Wendy Lark remained calm and said, "That is to say, the charges have been verified, but the final verdict has not yet been made?" 

 (Old lady Lark fainted from fright. All the men, women, and children in the house were overwhelmed by the cruel reality and could only cry and beg for mercy. This girl is so calm, is it normal?) Daniel Walker raised his eyebrows. He thought in his mind but still answered 

"Yes, the former Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Zaman Lark, was corrupt and took bribes, and was disregarding human life. He was dismissed from his post and his property was confiscated." 

Zaman Lark was both a minister of the Ministry of Revenue and the marquis of the Lark. No one dared to disobey him, and his words could decide the fate of the Lark family. But at this moment, he was filled with despair and his mind was in a mess. 

Third son of the Lark family Sander Lark suddenly jumped up and said with great righteousness, "It was my elder brother who made the mistake. It has nothing to do with us. Sir, please let us go." 

Husband and wife are birds of the same forest, but when disaster strikes, they fly away separately, let alone brothers. He just wants to save himself! The tribesmen who came to the banquet cried out in grievance. 

"We are just a branch of the family. We only visit each other during festivals. We know nothing about Zaman Lark, sir." 

Daniel Walker sneered, his eyes full of contempt and said, "Everyone, don't you understand the principle that if we prosper together, we all prosper together, and if we suffer together, we all suffer together?" 

These people usually relied on their position as one of the ministers of the Ministry of Revenue to flaunt their power and gain a lot of benefits. Now that something has happened, they want to distance themselves from the matter. 

How can such a good thing happen? Mr. Sander Lark was the youngest son in the family. He was pampered and had never suffered any hardship. Suddenly, he encountered a disaster. He was so scared and felt wronged that he couldn't help but curse. 

Daniel Walker glanced at him coldly, and said in a terrifyingly cold voice, "Are you dissatisfied with the King's order? Do you hold a grudge?" 

It was like a basin of ice water was poured over his head, soaking Master Sander Lark. He shook his head frantically in fear, 

"No, no, no." 

He kept winking at his family, asking them to join in and say a few words to ease the atmosphere. But everyone was trembling with fear and dared not make a sound. Wendy Lark sighed in her heart, no one could fight. 

They are usually very arrogant, but when faced with problems, they become more cowardly than the other. The eldest uncle, who was the best fighter, was still immersed in the shock of having his house confiscated and had not yet come to his senses. 

She could only stand up and bowed in the direction of the palace. "The King is righteous and wise. Moreover, the evidence is there. If you do something wrong, you must accept the punishment of the law. The Lark family is convinced and dare not have any resentment." 

She was articulate, calm and composed, as if she was the head of the family. The Lark family looked at her in disbelief, as if they didn't recognize her anymore. (Is this still the usually taciturn third lady of the Lark family who can't even get a single punch?) They thought. 

Wendy Lark didn't care at all, and said calmly, "But, sir, the King hasn't ordered our heads to be chopped off yet, right? If someone dies before the order is issued, I'm afraid it will be used as a handle. People always have a few enemies in the world, what do you think?" 

She was taught by her grandfather, and she was rational and calm enough to try to find a way to survive for herself in this situation. Daniel Walker looked at her deeply with a strange expression. 

Wendy Lark smiled at him, then hugged her head and let out a shrill scream, "Ouch, my head hurts so much… I'm going to see the King of Hell. When I get to the underworld, I will tell you the truth about who hurt me. By the way, sir, what's your name?"
