Vol 4 Chapter 238: Mutual trust (below)

husband?
Although she was aware of the moment when Earl Angart spoke, Charlotte shuddered when Ayton actually said it.
"Do you guys ... think so?"
The frost-faced Charlotte had to bite the lower lip so that he would not lose his gaze. His amazed pupil gradually became cold and frost, sweeping from the face of each knight lord one by one.
Unusual silence in the hall.
None of the counts sitting around the round table objected, surprised, or even made a noise.
"This is what it should be!"
Earl Angut snorted, broke this moment of silence, and looked at Charlotte unabashedly: "To restore Byrne to strength, the first thing is to strengthen the Turin family and continue the blood of the Knight King! "
"Only if the inheritance of the Turin family is strong enough, Byrne can have enough confidence and the sky dome in the north, the dwarf in the south, and the hybrids of the big green sea! If there is an heir as soon as possible, it will be even more ... "
"Sir Guy Angert--!"
The ear of the thundering anger fort interrupted the old man's words, and his sharp eyes looked back at him without any flinch: "You ... too much!"
"boom--!"
Count Angut, who had his mouth shut, suddenly turned his eyes and glared, and the right hand with his bracers hit a pit directly on the table.
Under the tense eyes of the knight lords, the two men stared at each other for ten seconds, and the old man sat back on the seat with a snort.
"Uncle Eckert ..."
The panicked Charlotte even lost his gaze, and murmured to the Earl of the Fury Castle aside: "Don't you think that I actually don't think I am qualified to go ..."
"No, it's not what you think." The Earl of Fury, sitting on the left hand of the countess, looked at her gently, his calm voice and just completely judged the two:
"Your performance today has greatly exceeded the expectations of all of us, and even Earl Angter can be quelled by you. None of the people present will doubt your wrist."
"Humph--!" The old man who heard this turned his head straight away.
With a sigh, Earl Eckert raised the letter of assistance in his right hand: "If there is no such thing, we will not make such a request, at least not in this way of persecution; but now the situation is ... we I have no choice. "
The countess bit her bottom lip, her face frosty.
"If we are negotiating with the empire, we all believe that you can win your dignity for the Bain and Turin families; but war ... that is another matter."
"It's even said that if this war can be delayed for another three or five years, and after your status in the Sky Dome and Byrne has gradually stabilized, everything is not negotiable, but ... as I just said, we have no selected."
"Send troops to the Great Green Sea and support the Principality of Boe. There can be no second leader except for Duke Byrne; none of you here have such qualifications, let alone have them." Earl Eckert said in a deep voice: "So you have to have a husband, let him be your right hand and hold the flag for the Turin family!"
When the voice of Earl Eckert dropped, the atmosphere of the whole hall became more dignified.
The knight lords in front of the round table remained silent, but all looked at the countess under the coat of arms of Turin with the same eyes.
"That is to say, in your ... in the eyes of the adults, as the direct bloodline of the Torino family, I, the Earl of Red Blood Castle, are not qualified to command the knights of Byrne, do they lead the expedition like the ancestors of the past?
Charlotte raised her eyebrows, and the heavy atmosphere made her recover her original majesty: "So you just said ... I need a husband ?!"
"If you have to ask so directly ... yes."
The mouth is still Earl Eckert, staring at Charlotte with a solemn expression: "Yes, you are a descendant of the Knight King, but you do not have any experience of fighting with the enemy, nor have you ever been on the battlefield!"
"It might be your strength to fight in the palace; but I said ... that's another thing on the battlefield! Let a woman who hasn't fought a warfare command the knight of Byrne, we can't stand it, Byrne and all Ling can't afford this risk anymore! "
"Baiyan may not have such a precedent, but there is a queen in Sacran who once saved the entire empire and won the eighth war of monster invasions!" Charlotte still refused to give up, refusing to gritt his teeth.
"Now that you know the war, you should remember who helped the great" Queen of Dragons "to clean up the mess, and was shamefully slandered as a believer after his death!"
Earl Angut interrupted her violently, and roared like thunder in the earlest's ear: "Is such a lesson not deep enough, should the tragedy of the Black Duke be staged again?"
Charlotte shuddered, her deafening voice and the pressure on the old man made her pale.
"Charlotte Turin, we are not your enemies, we are thinking about Turin too." Earl Eckert said with awe, raised his hand to stop the old man who wanted to continue, and looked at the countess's sincere eyes. :
"Don't be angry with us, and don't let us have no choice, okay?"
Looking at his eyes, Charlotte frowned, his teeth clenched.
Earl Eckert is right, he cannot let them have no choice.
And his choice is already obvious-he chose to compromise in front of the Vault of Heaven. If he ignores Poi ’s request for help, the entire Baine will be completely disappointed with the Turin family, and all previous efforts will be lost
And if you want to send troops, you must have a husband ... this is the exchange condition of the round table council, the twelve knight lords.
Relying on the careful planning of Loren Turin and the settlement of Count Angut's sudden trouble, they lost the reason to threaten themselves; and now, Poi's letter of help has given them a second chance.
Because ... the knights of Byrne would not be pleased to let a woman lead.
Because ... I am a woman.
What an impeccable reason.
Fort Storm, Fort Rock, Fort of Fury ... These counts from all parts of Byrne, perhaps really out of fear, or miscarriage, or ambition, they all have an ultimate purpose.
That is clamping ... and even controlling the Turin family.
For all three generations, all the territories of Byrne who lost the of the duke are in a semi-independent state; they ... haven't been them for a long time.
Even if Loren had n’t told her directly, the countess herself was slightly aware of it-some of the twelve lords were secretly planning something in the background.
The highly respected Tris Eckert, the irritable Guy Angert, Ayton Glenwell who wants to propose to himself ... and all the counts who are worried about the future are used by this person piece.
Charlotte felt cold.
How to do it ... What do I have to do to make them lose their reasons to threaten themselves, and to make a hidden among these people dumbfounded and speechless?
"... This is not a meeting, this is a war, a fight, a duel ..."
Charlotte shuddered slightly, as if standing in the shadow of another person's shadow in front of him in a trance; his heart beat faster and his breathing became more and more rapid.
"... You have to do everything you can, do whatever you can, and even betray someone you trust at a critical moment ..."
Her trembling hands rested on the table, her fingers crossed, so hard that her joints were white.
"... Of course ~ EbookFREE.me ~ The price will be heavy ..."
Squeezing the corner of his mouth, the countess took a deep breath and slowly raised her head.
"... but if necessary and appropriate, then don't hesitate ..."
Straightening his chest, Charlotte straightened his body, but his eyes suddenly turned cloudless and light on the awkward face, and even a smile appeared.
"Masters, thank you for your generous speeches and admonishments, because you let me see the shortcomings in me."
Charlotte was very calm, but softly whispered to make everyone present clearly audible: "For this, I want to thank you, the Turin family and the entire Byrne thank you.
"But ..." she said sharply:
"I'm not ready to accept your suggestion; on the contrary, I want to make another suggestion to you, one that will meet all your requirements!"
At this moment, the counts present looked at each other with different expressions.
