Remember [] in one second, to provide you with wonderful novel reading.
The Red Blood Castle is a fairytale place for foreigners.
Unlike the terrible and formidable castle of Lothal ’s military fortress, nor the thatched cottages, muddy and dirty towns of Sacran ... On this prosperous land, there are only large villages dotted with manor houses and exquisite palaces like crafts city.
In the back garden of the palace, I just woke up from my dream. Charlotte in a light blue satin long dress leaned against the fountain, like the long hair of the waterfall spread over his shoulders, and the light of dawn painted a hazy color on the back of the countess.
In the summer morning, the flowery courtyard, the sleepy Countess ... without embellishment, just the scene in front of you is enough to enter the painting.
But at the moment Charlotte frowned, not half sleepy in his cold eyes, staring at the courtyard under the hill and the Red Blood Castle across from each other ... bye Governor's Mansion.
When he first returned to the Red Blood Castle, Charlotte had no idea that the situation had actually deteriorated to this look. After realizing that he had left the Turin family without a leader, Governor Byrne took the opportunity to take the city defense and control the lower city. , And also announced martial law throughout the city!
The most troublesome thing is that the other party is well-founded, and nominally Governor Byrne has the power to "control the entire territory of Bayern"; a large number of nobles are killed, and the murderer is fleeing. Such opponents are of course within the jurisdiction of the Governor's Palace.
But in fact, the real purpose of this group of people is to lift the Turin family and make the Red Blood Castle completely become the territory of the Governor ’s Palace, and even further expand the influence and power of the entire Baiern!
If you catch yourself, then Governor Byrne will become the true Duke of Byrne!
The footsteps behind him gradually approached, and stopped beyond ten steps; Charlotte looked back, a young child with a pair of rigorous eyes, a gray pupil like a knight standing on the spot, bowing to himself:
"Good morning, Countess of Turin."
"Good morning, Lussien." Charlotte nodded slightly, approaching in a gentle tone.
She also knows a little about this gray pupil-the illegitimate child of the Wiltz family, the younger brother of Yuri Wiltz, the Duke of Ellerman today, the youngest leader of the Imperial Legion, the guard of Loren Turin, according to rumors The two also arrived in the legendary Dragon King City together ...
All in all, for the present precarious situation, Lucien is already a rare helper for Charlotte and one of those who can be trusted and trusted.
Of course, she also understood that the other party would be willing to help herself, completely because of the dark-haired wizard ... If the Turin family loses power, the result for Loren is also self-evident.
"Have you heard about Loren?"
"Not yet." Luisen shook his head, his expression also sighed with frustration: "On the side of the imperial capital, I only heard that His Highness Brandon was chartered by His Majesty as a member of the Imperial Cabinet, but only bystanders."
"There is also ... Heir Jode, the heir of the Jodhpur Chamber of Commerce, was killed at sea-only one warship in the name of the governor he was riding on was found. The entire warship no longer had a living person, but he also did not find little Jode. The bones are still missing. "
Killed well ... Charlotte's eyes flashed sharply when he heard the news; the countess had a deep hatred for the running dog of the Governor's Mansion and the Jodd Chamber of Commerce, which controlled the economic lifeline of Byrne.
Gray pupil has no superfluous thoughts, he only worried about the safety of Loren: "However, since the emperor has not heard rumors until now ... That means that Lord Loren may not have been captured by them, but escaped. Alright? "
"It should be so." The countess nodded slightly.
"I've sent someone to ambush the eyeliner around the Red Blood Fort territory. This guy's looks are very special, as long as he enters Byrne, he will be found." Charlotte's lips flickered twice, and his eyes flickered with sigh:
"But according to his habit, he probably wouldn't walk the road, but directly cross the border from the wilderness ... Except for himself, I'm afraid no one knows where this guy is."
Luisen stunned slightly, but then could not help but nodded ... this really fits the dark-haired wizard he remembered.
The glacier wasteland, the Dragon King City, Golovin ... Lord Loren does not seem to act according to normal human thinking once.
"Oh, Ain Rand ... what's the matter?" The countess suddenly asked, and when she realized that the expression of the gray pupil was a little confused, he quickly explained: "Don't get me wrong ... I just heard that he (she) has been staying recently In the laboratory, I was a little worried. "
Although this alchemist never said anything on the lips, the emotion of "caring" was never an expression of emotion; the more many people with delicate feelings cared about, the more they deliberately pretended to be indifferent; but even how Cover up, it will also reveal some flaws.
The countess didn't believe that the friend that the dark-haired wizard cared so much would not care about his safety at all.
"Your Excellency Ain has only recently been addicted to research, you don't have to pay too much attention." The gray pupil circumvented the topic very carefully, and the right hand behind his back slightly clenched his fist.
"Is it?" Charlotte, who heard the answer, just raised her eyebrows and didn't talk much.
But Lucent came here early in the morning not to ask these questions. There are more urgent things to deal with: "The deputy governor ’s office was killed yesterday, and the elite of a dozen patrols were killed in the hotel in the lower city Now! "
"what?!"
Charlotte was surprised, but then guessed something: "Did the vampire do it ?!"
"There is no evidence, but it is very likely." The gray pupil nodded. "At least ... they said so."
"Holy Cross, I thought ..." Unbelievable Charlotte murmured, but quickly put his voice down.
But Lucien also knew what she wanted to say, and continued: "I think so about this matter ... If the case of this homicide finally has eyebrows, then the governor's house will lose the reason to continue martial law!"
"You can seize the opportunity to regain control of the lower city and the city defense, and request to review this incident with the governor's office-you are the earl of the Red Blood Fort, and you have the power to intervene in everything that happens on this land!"
"I thought you would advise me to be patient." Charlotte raised an eyebrow: "Challenging the power of Governor Byrne head-on ... Passing it out will definitely hurt Brandon and your master?"
"That's the original ..." Lucien shook his head: "At this moment, one moment at a time; there is no result at all for a whole month, which is enough to prove how incompetent the governor's office is. You are participating now to restore peace in the Red Blood Castle as soon as possible. Rather than fighting for power and profit, it will not fall to any population. "
"well!"
The faceless countess was very decisive and immediately got up: "I went to the governor's office personally at noon today and asked them to give me an answer!"
"If you don't mind, just go with me." Charlotte turned his gaze to the gray pupil: "Just as a guard, explore their reality for me ... is it okay?"
"Of course!" Lucien nodded slightly, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "This is an honor to be under."
"Under ..." Charlotte whispered these two words, and looked at the gray pupil's face with a soft hum.
"Uh ... what's wrong?"
"Nothing!" Ignoring Lucien's confused expression, Charlotte turned around.
Worthy of being all the way ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Both master and servant are the same hypocrisy!
For a moment of tranquility, a servant walked into the courtyard and handed the envelope to the countess; while the servant left, the gray-eyed boy with sharp eyes immediately noticed that there was a stamp on the governor's palace.
Charlotte, who had received the letter, was still at a loss, but when he saw the content, his heart suddenly sagged, and his head looked up in disbelief.
"What's wrong?" Lucien, who sensed the strangeness of the countess, tentatively opened his mouth and stepped forward: "They are threatening you or ..."
"No, it's not a threat!" Charlotte's gaze was slightly lost, but it was well disguised: "A wizard from the imperial capital encountered some trouble outside the city gate and said he would see me."
"And ... still black hair and black eyes, claiming to be a wizard consultant for Brandon de Salion!"
Luisen was shocked: "Where is he now ?!"
"Just outside the gate of the palace!" Mobile users, please browse and read for a better reading experience.
