A plot against the king
Reynard the Fox, by Willem · At the gallows
His "confession" is a huge lie. His father once found the treasure of King Ermelinc, he says. At Ifte, near Ghent, his father met with Bruun, Isengrim, Tibeert and even Grimbeert. They planned to kill King Nobel and make Bruun king, paid with that treasure. Reynaert stole the treasure to save the king. The king and queen are suddenly very interested.
