Chapter 1187 Test?

Earl Will reacted, and Kieran was not surprised.

Under the premise that Mary had already taken action, it would be strange if Count Will, known as the 'Fox', did not react.

However, the other party's 'assassination' surprised Qin Ran.

Threatening someone with death is not a good way to deal with it. Kieran doesn't believe that the other party will give up his power and status to become a 'dead person'.

Unless the other party has other intentions.

As for what the plot is?

Everything is obvious.

"The other party knows very well that with her status, if she is assassinated, Mary, as Warren's heir and princess, will inevitably need to check and worship. And when such a war has just ended, even for safety reasons, I will definitely accompany you."

"So, besides Mary, am I also being targeted?"

"we can even say……"

"I'm the most important one!"

Kieran narrowed his eyes.

Under normal circumstances, with the old count's slippery style in the past, it was hard to imagine that the other party would be so bold as to do such a thing.

Simply put, the other party must have something to rely on.

And this reliance must be so strong that the other party thinks it can fight him.

"Who is the one?"

Qin Ran looked at Mary while guessing who was hiding in the dark.

The underage princess was also looking at Kieran.

In the eyes of this princess, there was no worry or fear, only thoughts.

Obviously, Mary also discovered that the old count's 'assassination' was not simple.

"I think we need to discuss it long term."

Earl Shilin on the side said this.

Kieran would never object to such a cautious proposal. If there was no main mission of 'guaranteeing that Mary will successfully ascend the throne and become queen within 30 days', Kieran would have a more appropriate way.

For example: rely on the Crow Faction to get information.

In the prairie people's camp, the Crow Faction had spies, so in the southern reinforcements, Qin Ran believed that such spies also existed.

And now?

But we have to use another more risky method.

Because he didn't have more time to investigate what kind of arrangements the southern reinforcements had.

He could only use his body as bait to induce those arrangements.

Or, some people.

However, before that, Kieran still consulted Mary for her opinion.

"Mary?"

"Listen to you."

The princess said simply.

Her trust in Qin Ran has already exceeded other people's imagination.

"Too risky."

"At least one more cavalry should be transferred from the Thunder Fortress camp."

Earl Shilling dissuaded.

But such dissuasion was of no use to Qin Ran and Mary.

"A cavalry?"

"Unless it directly overwhelms the southern reinforcements in terms of numbers, it will have no effect at all."

"It will be more convenient for me to move alone."

Qin Ran shook his head.

"It's two people."

Mary emphasized.

In response, Qin Ran smiled and nodded.

"Count me in."

Earl Xilin also followed suit, but was rejected by Qin Ran.

"Luldrie needs someone who can guard the place."

"You are the right person."

Qin Ran said this.

"My father, I leave it to you for now, Your Excellency."

Mary said the same.

"As you wish, Your Highness."

The young earl immediately saluted.

Later, a motorcade with only a few people drove out of the palace of Luldri.

The young earl watched the convoy leave until it was completely out of sight, then turned back to the palace and began to arrange guards and patrols.

The young earl will not take the tasks assigned by Qin Ran and Mary lightly.

Although there is no such saying as "Tune the tiger away from the mountain" in the world before us, there are countless similar proverbs.

For the honor of the Xilin family, the young earl treated him solemnly.

…

The southern reinforcements were stationed twenty kilometers south of Luardi. Under the clear weather, everyone could clearly see this huge camp after the convoy left Luardi.

Mary stood in the car and took a look at the camp, then turned and returned to the car.

She was holding the [Sword of Thorns] that was almost as tall as her, squinting her eyes slightly, and her look was somewhat similar to when Qin Ran was thinking.

Not only at this time, but many times, Mary imitated some of Kieran's little moves.

This is true when talking, walking, sitting or lying down.

It's not exactly a worship of the strong.

There are also minors learning from their parents.

In a family, the reason why children become like their parents is mostly due to this kind of learning. The same living environment, similar food, and unconsciously, everything becomes very similar.

This is a kind of inheritance.

In fact, most family inheritances are like this.

In the world before us, inheritance goes far beyond family.

Listening to Mary's rhythmic breathing, Qin Ran couldn't help but glance at her.

He could tell that it was a way of cultivation.

However, Kieran didn't ask too much. Everyone has their own secrets.

Mary has.

He is also included.

And, far more than Mary imagined.

Without making any sound, Qin Ran walked out of the carriage and sat on the driver's side.

"grown ups."

Snake Yi, who was driving the car, and Fink and Tosta, who were gathering faintly beside the car, said with great respect.

This kind of respect has already surpassed the previous soldiers. After being controlled by the [Mesili Ring], the sword-wielders and backbones of the Snake Faction not only continued to protect the princess according to Qin Ran's instructions, but also did It was quite good. According to the information quietly handed over by Fink and Tosta, the three of them had solved at least four assassinations for Mary.

Where the assassination came from, the three people who could not leave Mary's side without Kieran's order did not know.

"Assassination?"

Qin Ran muttered in a low voice, but his eyes looked to the side of the road ahead.

Luardrie is the capital of Warren. Compared with the muddy roads in the countryside, the roads here are not only smooth, but also wide enough to accommodate two four-wheeled carriages traveling side by side.

At this moment, on the road ahead, a two-wheeled carriage dumped sideways.

The overturned car body clearly showed that the axle was broken.

A horse pulling a cart was tied to a tree beside the road and was eating the grass beside the road.

There were also salutes scattered on the ground.

Some packed gold and silver vessels, and some clothes.

Obviously, this carriage should belong to the refugees who returned from Luerdry after hearing about Warren's victory.

only……

Only horses, carriages and salutes were left on the road.

But no one was seen.

Without any instructions from Kieran, Fink, who was accompanying him, immediately went to investigate.

While Fink was investigating, a slightly scrutinizing gaze shot out from the forest on one side and fell directly on Kieran.
