Scene 67 Message to Akane VII

"Betsy, you're back."

As soon as the maid with a lovely round face entered the room, she was surrounded by several other maids who greeted her chirpingly. Betisa patted the apron, raised her eyebrows and glanced at the hostess in the room, then made a silent gesture to the other sisters, and asked in a low voice: "Hush, I ask you, after I leave, the Earl Has she had a good rest?"

Hearing this question, the sisters immediately became frowning. Since Qian was imprisoned here by Her Majesty the Queen, she has been very depressed all day long, and sometimes she talks to her long gun that she doesn't know where it came from. , so that they were all suspicious, wondering if there was something wrong with the earl's mind. They will report Qian's daily routine to Her Majesty the Queen every day - Her Majesty obviously still cares about this lord very much, at least she never lies to outsiders about this matter, and every time she takes time out of her busy schedule to come and listen to Betisa in person It was reported -- but His Majesty didn't say anything about the strangeness of the Earl, so they naturally didn't dare to speculate on it.

Kexi was always depressed, she didn't eat much, she didn't sleep very much, and it was a headache for them.

Seeing the faces of the sisters, Betisa understood what was going on. She sighed and said, "Hey, let the Earl have a good rest, and you don't want to make trouble anymore. She must be homesick, but Her Majesty the Queen doesn't want to." Let her go back."

"Yes, yes," the maids replied in unison: "Our children in Dashan are always nostalgic for their homeland. I always think of the maple trees in my hometown."

Another maid looked at Betisa's face and asked in a low voice, "Betsia, you don't look very well. Is Her Majesty the Queen in a bad mood?"

"Hush," Betisa glared at the maid, "Don't talk nonsense, but His Majesty is in a bad mood today."

"What's the matter?" This question seemed to arouse the curiosity of the maids, and they hurriedly lowered their voices and asked.

"It's not because of the Earl." Betisa sighed, and she didn't know how many times she sighed, as if His Majesty's bad mood had also affected her.

"That Lord Earl from the countryside again?"

"Keep your voice down, idiot," Betisa replied, "That Lord Earl is from Aruin, do you know that Aruin is a small kingdom in the south of the empire, by the way, our Lord Earl is also from there Yes, don't let her hear you say that about her hometown, the earl from the country, how ugly it is."

The maids were taken aback, with lingering fear on their faces, and what's more, they looked into the room with a guilty conscience.

But when they found that Qian didn't seem to be listening to them, they breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly turned around and asked: "Betsy, tell us quickly, what's the matter with the Earl?"

Akane was under house arrest in the courtyard of this ancient castle, and naturally these maids could not leave, except that Betisa would take a carriage to the Rose Garden to meet Her Majesty every once in a while. And girls of their age are full of vivacity and curiosity, so the new things outside are even more attractive to them, even if it is a sesame-sized thing, Betisa is a little older, and seeing herself With pitiful gazes from his companions, he could only reply: "The Earl arrested the local gentry and nobles in Seruf. When I went there, I happened to see Duke Parut complaining to His Majesty in the Rose Garden. "When she said this, she suddenly showed a clever smile, and said disrespectfully to the Duke who was speaking: "You haven't seen the expression of the Duke who is so distraught, I have never seen him like this before."

"Bettissa, you said that the Earl has arrived in Seruf?" The maids seemed to be used to hearing such news, and they were not surprised at all, as if the southern nobles had been beaten to the brim since the past half month. It has become commonplace, and it has become a joke for everyone in the entire capital. On the contrary, they noticed another point and asked curiously: "So, we will be able to see that person in less than a month." Lord Earl?"

"Before he completely annoys His Majesty," Betisa curled her lips. When Grand Duke Palut talked with Her Majesty, she only dared to stand aside and bow her head to listen, but this did not prevent her from hearing how bad Her Majesty was in a bad mood, let alone later The face of Her Majesty the Queen she secretly saw also proved this point - her face was already cold, and today it was colder than before, enough to make people's teeth chatter just by looking at it. She thought for a while, and added with lingering fear: "If the Earl hadn't been arrested and hanged by His Majesty, maybe we would have hoped to see him."

"Betsy, what are you talking about?" At this moment, a slightly deep voice came.

All the maids were taken aback. They had discussed so intensely before that they didn't notice when Akane had come over. The mountain girl stood by the door of her room and looked at them. The maids were frightened like a group of frightened people. Like sparrows, they shut their mouths one by one, making the room quiet down all of a sudden.

Betisa glared at her dishonest companions angrily, and then replied to Qian in a low voice: "Master Earl."

"Are you discussing Aruin?" Qian didn't care about it, but stared at her, and asked in a hurry.

It's over, the Earl must have heard it, Betisa thought. But she didn't dare to lie, and replied honestly: "Yes, Lord Earl."

"Tell me the truth." Qian said with a pale face. In fact, these days, she often cannot sleep peacefully. Whenever she closes her eyes, she thinks of the lord, which disturbs her.

"We are discussing an Earl from Aruin."

"A Lord Earl from Eruin?" As soon as Qian heard this sentence, she immediately rushed to Betisa's side in three steps and two steps uncharacteristically. She clung to the round-faced maid like a ghost arm, asked aloud.

"Ah!" Betisa had never seen Qian like this before, and couldn't help being startled.

"Where does the Earl come from?"

"My lord, I don't know. Her Majesty and the nobles didn't mention it, so I dare not ask." Betisa replied hastily.

Qian pursed her lips and didn't speak. The girl's keen premonition caught her at once, but she couldn't figure out how to ask questions for a moment.

Betisa looked at the Earl tremblingly. When she met the determined and longing eyes of the other party, she seemed to understand it all at once, and then asked tremblingly: "My Lord Earl, do you want to hear from him?" Deeds?"

Akane nodded seriously.

"Well, it's like this..." Betisa took a deep breath and said slowly.

...

After Duke Parutt left, Constance's face turned pale, and at this time, Fiona Niederwin, the prime minister of the empire known as 'Little Nidwin', just hurried into the room of Her Majesty the Queen in the Rose Garden with a look on her face. In the dedicated study room, the supreme man of the empire looked at the other party and asked, "What's the matter, my lord prime minister, did that lord earl cause some trouble again?"

Little Ni Dewen glanced at Her Majesty in surprise. Before he came, he had heard from the servants that His Majesty was in a rage, but now it seemed that this was far from the case. Instead of losing his temper, His Majesty seemed to be in a slightly better mood. . But even so, he still didn't dare to relax a little bit, and quickly saluted respectfully, and then replied with some embarrassment: "Your Majesty, you are so good at predicting things, it is true, that Lord Earl took the nobleman of Seruf After they detained him, another group of young people wanted to take revenge on him, but it was a pity that they were all taken hostage by him. I heard that the nobles in the south have lost their temper with the Earl, and are discussing how to use the ransom to pay him back. It's a replacement, but the old Duke seems to be unable to get over his face."

The old duke he was talking about was naturally the previous generation of patriarchs of the Palut family. The Palut family is the representative of the emerging nobles of the Cruz Empire. They have a close relationship with the local nobles in the south. It was because of this that they supported them to become an important force in the court.

"Which families were the children arrested?" Constance asked casually.

"It's mainly the Alcons family and the Jean family. Your Majesty, the Duchess is from the Jean family." Fiona Niederwin reminded.

"I don't need you to remind me, of course I know that," Her Majesty replied, "These self-righteous guys dare not even look down on the guests I invited, so let them suffer a bit."

Little Ni Dewen seemed to have figured out the ins and outs, and quickly replied: "Your Majesty is right, but that Lord Earl is really too disrespectful to the empire, and the nobles of the empire can't stand him calling all the way. "

"Hmph," the Silver Queen snorted softly: "It's normal to be young and vigorous, but it's true that his grandfather was much more stable than him back then. It doesn't matter. Capable people can be forgiven for being rebellious. It's not that he doesn't even have the capacity to accommodate people. But don't call him too much, he just wants to attract our attention, but the empire can't bear to have every envoy come, let the border The local legion in the local army has strengthened their guard, and even a mere Aruin can step on their faces, and Earl Alcons and Earl Jean are not too ashamed."

The prime minister of the empire couldn't help but smiled wryly: "This Earl is really, I don't know how to describe it. He actually did such a thing. Even I almost thought he was a lunatic."

"He's not crazy," Constance replied, "This Lord Earl knows the empire well, he knows we won't do anything to him, and this little guy is very measured, outsiders can't see it, I don't believe you I still can't see it, my lord prime minister."

A thin layer of cold sweat immediately broke out on the forehead of little Ni Dewen. He knew in his heart that although it was normal for the supreme man of the empire to talk to him here, in fact, the Ni Dewen family was under the authority of Her Majesty the Queen. It is a well-recognized fact that the status in my heart is not as good as the other day. On the contrary, because of the series of things that Brando has done these days, the number of times he met the Queen has increased a lot, and the relationship between the two parties has eased a little. some. But the other party's words immediately made him feel nervous again, and he hurriedly replied cautiously: "Your Majesty's eyes are like a torch, that Lord Earl is the grandson of that person after all."

"Indeed." Her Majesty the Queen nodded, as if deeply convinced.

"Your Majesty, before I came, I heard that you lost your temper again." At this moment, little Ni Dewen suddenly asked cautiously.

"how?"

"Your Majesty, your body."

"My health is very good, don't worry about the old prime minister," Constance knew that this must be the words passed down by him on behalf of the old prime minister Niederwen. Although the young prime minister in front of him is not inferior to his father in the slightest, his courage is just as strong. A lot worse: "I'm angry because the nobles of the empire, who have their own faces trampled under their feet, don't think about how to regain their glory, but want to tie their own gains and losses with the entire empire. The Cruz people haven't degenerated to that degree."

"It's reasonable for them to want to take revenge on that Lord Earl. I don't think Grand Duke Palut will let it go, Your Majesty." Little Nidwin shook his head and replied.

"I hope he doesn't cause me too much trouble." Constance shook her head.

"Earl Alcons and Earl Jean have a sense of propriety." Little Nedwen replied with a bit of a tongue.

Constance glanced at him and corrected, "I was talking about him."

The prime minister of the empire was slightly taken aback, then smiled wryly.

Little Nedwin stayed in the Rose Garden for half an hour, and took time to report to the supreme man of the empire on the battle situation in the west and east——the Lions were still attacking Whiteheart, Orcas Fortress, and Compared with their decisiveness in gathering a large army, it can be said that their progress is slow. The wind elves' offensive insisted on the four realms. The Red Legion is not in vain as one of the four main armies of the empire, and the mobilization in the empire is coming to an end. areas can also be felt.

After he bid farewell, Constance watched the prime minister of the empire leave. She waited until the study room was empty before she lightly tapped on the armrest of the bench and said to herself thoughtfully.

"Does he really know how to arm the kingdom of heaven? Could it be that the old guy Jocelyn has been to Eruin secretly...?"

"No, he won't be so superficial, Lord Gwendolyn, I have a faint feeling that he seems to be using this to send us a signal, what does he want to express, or this is the statement of the Eruin people ?”

Her cold voice echoed faintly in the empty study room, but no one answered her question.

...

"Not only that."

The story in the room has obviously been going on for a while, but it will not end for a while, Betisa continued: "Everyone thinks that the Earl is crazy. He captured a fortress of the empire because of the courteous reception. God, before this, I always thought that we mountain people were the most rebellious people of the empire, but I didn't expect that compared with this Earl, we are nothing. "

"I've heard that the Eruin people have a great king. When he founded the country, he made an oath that the Eruin people should protect their people diligently. I didn't expect it to be so." When he said this sentence , this round-faced little maid couldn't help but sneak a glance at her lord, but she was disappointed to find that Qian was unmoved, and just asked numbly: "And then?"

She sighed in disappointment, and continued to reply: "Then the nobles of the empire were of course unwilling to let it go. They assembled an army to teach this short-sighted foreigner a lesson. Of course, the result was not as good as theirs. I mean--as for the latter, I told you earlier, Lord Earl, that Lord Earl naturally arrested them all, not only that, but also demanded a large amount of ransom from their families with these people as hostages, There is also a name called 'reputation damage fee' or 'spiritual damage fee' or something."

Qian trembled as if she had been electrocuted. She raised her head to look at her maid, and asked in disbelief, "You said 'spiritual damage fee'? You never told me about this before, Betisa!"

"But that's not the point, Lord Earl..."

Betisa replied inexplicably, but she didn't realize that the Earl in front of her had already clenched her teeth.

Once upon a time, only she, the person who stayed with the lord the longest, had already gotten used to those strange terms. She once thought that it was the only bad habit of the lord.

But at this moment, those words that he once sounded so awkward and incomprehensible now sound so intimate.

Betisa was still chattering: "According to me, the Earl actually didn't need to offend the nobles of the empire so hard. After all, he is a foreigner. If he shows off his prestige for a while, he will have to bear it in the future." Yes. Her Majesty the Queen also got angry several times because of this, and several lords hated him so much that they had to gnash their teeth. The only thing worthy of praise is that this lord earl has made a big splash. Now in the area around Rusta, I'm afraid there are very few people who don't know him, and I really don't understand what he wants to do."

In the middle of her speech, she suddenly froze, because she suddenly saw that the Earl in front of her was crying. She hurriedly called out: "My lord, what's wrong with you."

Akane shook her head vigorously.

Because she understands.

All this was done just to tell her a word.

I'm here, Sissy.

As promised—

...

(ps: It’s so late today, I haven’t played much with Sword Spirit, woo woo woo, I’m begging for a monthly pass in pain with Sister Qian. In addition, someone asked about the reset of the ether dragon yesterday. Paying mana is actually a card Ability, the cost of Ether Dragon itself is 25 water; but I also read the description of that card, but there is actually a problem, I think it should be written as an enchantment.)
