Red Blood Fort.
The cold morning dew dripped on the bright petals, refracting the light from the study window; Charles had no time to enjoy the pre-dawn beauty, hurriedly walked through the courtyard and walked towards the light source.
Before he walked outside the door of the study, he saw someone's figure waiting for him there for a long time; a little sleepy little Yode looked sideways, eyes glanced at him, carrying Meaningful eyes.
"Xia ... When did the light in the Earl's room light up?" Charles asked anxiously, not caring about each other's eyes.
"You should ask, when did her lamp go out." Little Yode's tone was very flat: "A whole night ... Almost after leaving from the messenger of the dwarf kingdom, the countess did not close her eyes, and looked through all night. The archives left by the Duke's negotiations with the dwarves. "
"Oh ... By the way, I was called in once in the middle, I drank a cup of mint tea, and was kicked out after asking a few words."
Seeing the sigh of the housekeeper of Red Blood Castle, Little Yode's expression was more interesting.
After the meeting that day was worthy of a "tit-for-tat" meeting, the atmosphere on both sides was extremely stiff, and it was even a touch.
Because of the trade relationship, Little Yoder can't understand the dwarf's character; this is a race that does not know what "apology" and "bowing down" have. It has a very strong self-esteem-or glass heart-and has an oath and hatred. All have stubborn imagination.
Faced with such an opponent, Charlotte took such a tough wrist ... it wouldn't be surprising that it would break.
Since that day, he has been busy with the next business-whether it is a comprehensive preparation for the war, or a trade blockade against the dwarves can not be prepared in a word, and a lot of coordination work needs to be done to make this order from A sentence of "ruthless words" was implemented.
More importantly, the Duke is not in Byrne at the moment. Although he has appointed the Regent of the Round Table Parliament, how much prestige a duke who has just succeeded to the throne, and whether the authority of the Thirteen Lords will recognize the authority of the Round Table Parliament is unknown.
If lords everywhere are unwilling to implement sanctions against them, dispatch military forces or trade blockades, what step of sanctions will make them understand "the value of life", but they will not rebel ... this is all a question.
Looking at the lights in the window, Charles hesitated for a moment and sighed, and quickly walked forward.
"Can you listen to me two words before you meet your master?"
The words without a little emotion came from behind, so that the footsteps of the Red Blood Butler's housekeeper had just stepped out again, slightly looking sideways, looking at Xiao Yood coldly:
"Excuse me ... Any advice?"
"I'm just a humble businessman and servant, there's nothing to teach you ... Master Butler." Little Yoder's mouth smiled: "What I can tell you is nothing more than objective facts."
"Please speak." Charles turned around and lifted his chest, putting his hands behind his back.
"As you know, the dwarves are an extremely proud race. In the past, even when Bain had an absolute advantage over them, he never took any means that would irritate them." Little Yoke said:
"And as far as I can see, the method of the Countess Charlotte is even more radical than the Black Duke of that year; now the Principality is newly established, and the Duke is far away in Poi and the Centaur. Stimulate a potential enemy ... is it really appropriate? "
Charleston was speechless and hesitated for a while: "This ... this is not the decision of the Earl alone, but the entire roundtable ..."
"The whole roundtable council?"
Little Yoder chuckled: "Is it the Loren Turin Roundtable Council or Charlotte Turin Roundtable Council?"
In a word, let Charles' expression look cold again.
"Your Excellency, what exactly do you want to say?"
"Not what I want to say, but what the Countess Charlotte is doing?" Little Jord shook his head: "Ordering to the Thirteen Leaders of Bain to prepare for a full war and a trade blockade against the dwarves-these are all a regency Parliament, should we do it? "
"What do others think, and what would Duke Loren Turin think?"
"This is just a necessary action against the threat and non-cooperation of the dwarf." Charles's expression was serious: "And I repeat, this is the whole round table council, not the decision of the count alone!"
"Whatever you say, but Count Charlotte Turin has become the core of the substance of the Round Table Parliament. In addition to the occasional remarks, what other decisions have there been?" Little Yoder grinned:
"She may not have noticed this on her own ... but in fact, the Countess Charlotte has increasingly regarded herself as the" Duke of Bayern "!"
Charles stared at Little Yodd with a staring look, with an unprecedented serious expression: "Are you doubting the Earl's loyalty?"
"The Countess's loyalty is impeccable ... This is for sure." Little Yoder said slowly: "But ... if even I started to notice, what do you think other people would think?"
"When the lords of All Byrne received a request for full preparation, they would regard this as the command of 'which' Turin?"
The housekeeper of Red Blood Castle was silent.
"... These are just your speculations, nonsense." After a long time, Charles whispered: "Duke Loren ... he will never doubt the Earl's loyalty to him!"
"I don't deny this, but some things have nothing to do with what he thinks." Little Yoder slowly said: "When things reach an irreparable point, what do you think our Duke will do?"
"Let me remind you first that he is far less 'human and animal harmless' than it seems-he is a wizard, acting with reason rather than emotion; as long as it is necessary, he can do the cruelest thing in the world, and Nothing touched! "
At that moment, I suddenly thought of something, and I was suddenly horrified, my body trembling uncontrollably, and it faded away after a long time.
He still remembers clearly till now, what means Loren Turin ... used to make himself loyal to him.
The dead ship, the red that soaked the deck, the cruel face of the tragic dead, the dagger that penetrated the heart, the strange magical rune, the debris floating in the cabin, and the sun, covered in blood, wiped The black wizard who smiled at himself while Jian Feng ...
That kind of scene is really ... unforgettable all one's life.
"It's a ... warning. It's a warning that you haven't had any embarrassing warnings for me since you established in the Union Chamber of Commerce." The small-eyed little Yod stared at Charles, twitching his throat hard:
"Loren Turin is a person you can believe in, but it is best not to have too much illusions about him, otherwise ... you will die ugly, very ugly!"
Throwing away this sentence, Little Yode turned away.
After a moment of silence, Charles gently knocked on the study door.
"Charles, are you ... come in."
The voice was hoarse, and the butler of the Red Blood Castle who pushed the door saw the elegant back in front of the desk; it seemed to be a little fragile because he had not slept all night, and there was almost no blood on the pale cheeks.
In an instant, he could not bear it in his eyes.
"Earl." Charles frowned slightly: "IMHO, negotiation with the dwarf is very important, but your physical health is ..."
"I'm more aware of my physical condition than you. It's okay to stay up late once or twice." Charlotte chuckled slightly, his hoarse voice appeared weak:
"I have compiled the files of all the Duke and Dwarf negotiations in the past ... Ayton Glenwell is right. In our negotiations with Dwarves in history, there have never been any precedents of their concessions; but I have found some very The key issue is that the instability of the dwarf system leads them ... "
"Earl ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Charles silently interrupted Charlotte with an excited expression:" Some things ... you may need to know. "
Charlotte's face showed a curious expression.
Charles hesitated.
After chatting with Little Yoder, he didn't know whether he should tell her directly, or whether he should announce the news in the Round Table Parliament.
But in the end, the housekeeper of Red Blood Castle gave a long sigh:
"Dwarves ... they let go of their mouths." ...
