"I see, as long as Your Excellency Sheldon has time, you can come to me at any time." Even. Milton forced a smile.

It is not surprising that Hathaway has Praetorian Guards with her protection, after all, she was canonized by His Majesty the Emperor himself. However, if the Praetorian Guard was assigned by Dean Eastwood, it would be different...... In addition to the intervention of His Majesty the Emperor, Dean Eastwood has deep connections in the military, and the energy behind Hathaway is somewhat immeasurable.

Time passed imperceptibly, Hathaway talked to each of the guests with a smile, and even talked to the noble ladies and ladies about women, such as flowers and cosmetics, and quickly dispelled their hostility.

"Mother, it seems that this Hathaway is not as weak as you think." At a table in the corner, Connor. Pierren watched curiously as Hathaway maneuvered between the crowds.

Beside him was Demia. Piern had a reassuring smile on her face, "To be able to come out of the Kaye Academy of Magic and become a full-fledged magician, of course, she is very smart. ”

"It's not enough to be smart, those guys are cunning."

"That's of course, so now she is also taking advantage of the situation to mix the water, so naturally she is clear from the enemy."

Demia. Pierron's gaze raced over Solo. Bell swept over, "Connor, you have to remember how your father died!" ”

"Mother, I understand." Connor. Pierren nodded slightly.

Time flies, and before you know it, the banquet is coming to an end, and the time is almost twelve o'clock in the morning.

Enter the Cordillera Plateau from Hathaway. The two sides intentionally or unintentionally avoided each other...... Whether it's a dismount or a temporary avoidance, today is the first meeting between the two sides, and the result is that Hathaway won a big victory, whether it was Solo. Bell or Linnan. Camille's face was very ugly, but fortunately, the topics after that were some of the more popular content at the moment, finally covered up the smell of gunpowder just now in the conversation and laughter, and everyone showed a certain demeanor.

For Hathaway, the biggest takeaway from tonight was not to put the policy of disarmament on the ground. It's about being able to see where some people really stand. This is related to the personnel changes in the Cordillera Plateau today. As for Solo. Bel...... Hehe, I'm afraid he hasn't figured out her true intentions yet, and the few people Hathaway casually said, if not really able to deter them. It can also cause them to be troubled. As for the final conflict. That's simply unavoidable.

The banquet ends. But for many aristocrats, nightlife has only just begun, especially for some. I'm afraid I'm going to have no sleep tonight.

Under the pretext of meditating, Hathaway politely declined the invitation of some people, returned to his room, and summoned Siccone. Sheldon.

"Your Excellency, how did you get the results of this crackdown on bandits?" Hathaway asked with interest.

"As you might expect, most of those thieves have become thieves because they live in poverty. After destroying their lair, they were recruited in time, and now nearly 1,000 people have laid down their weapons and walked out of the mountains and forests. ”

"Well, although they are not guilty of the past, they must also abide by the law. However, if someone discriminates against them or even provokes them on the basis of their past, they will also be sanctioned. Forget it, I'll let Mr. Hughes handle it. ”

"My lord, tomorrow I will go to Baron Milton, I wonder how many people you want me to want?"

"About two hundred. Your men can still fight, right? ”

"Of course, those thieves are not strong enough to fight, and most of our time is spent searching for the situation and the road of the thieves. Luckily, there are snowy vulture mounts, otherwise the thieves would have escaped. ”

"That's good, this time you go to Baron Milton to ask for people, and try to ask for people he recommends, especially to pay attention to the plain names of those soldiers."

"With all due respect, my lord, those people are probably not reliable."

"I know."

"Then why do you want me to go, my lord?" Sicconi. Sheldon was a little confused.

"It's about getting them to put people in and hear our plan of action."

"In case they collude with thieves......"

"That's the result, but it must be under your control, especially the vulture is your hole card, although there may be rumors outside, but in a short period of time, you don't let them hear the accurate news."

"Yes, my lord, I understand, then I'll quit first."

"Slow." Hathaway stopped Siccone as he was about to leave. Sheldon, after thinking about it, said: "In this way, you can't accept everyone from Baron Milton, you must make a personal evaluation of your combat strength, and you can only ask for it." If they don't accept it, you can send someone to try it with them, most of these people have never been on the battlefield, and they may not all have the skills of you, so they will not have any complaints. ”

After getting Hathaway's guidance, Siccone. Only then did Sheldon leave in peace.

When the Janissary squadron leader left, Hathaway did not rest immediately, but sat down at her desk...... What happened today made her gain a lot, and there were many things she still needed to think about.

Some of the information from the intelligence system made her judgment deviate too much from the actual situation, and the fierce struggle for power in the Cordillera Heights was far from what she expected. Bell and Linnan. Camille still maintains a certain tacit understanding.

It's no wonder that the Sith. Carl himself is not an intelligence expert, and most of his sources come from the mouths of some lower-class people, but how much can they know?

This subjectively created a deviation in Hathaway, a deviation that even she hadn't thought of...... People are always willing to believe in what is good for them, and no one is exempt. There were a lot of things she had overlooked, or something he didn't know, and Hathaway felt the need to make some adjustments to her original plan.

Those with Solo. Bell and Linnan. Not all of Camille's people who kept her distance were her staunch supporters. Most of these people who have a certain strength in the Cordillera are on the sidelines.

There are many people who really express their willingness to advance and retreat with Hathaway, and they also want to get more benefits to stand on her side. The strength that these people possess is not of much help to Hathaway, and I believe that if they really have the strength that Hathaway wants, I am afraid they will not be so firmly on her side. But the power of these people should not be underestimated, they may not be able to control the overall situation, but it is more than enough to be a-stirring stick.

All Hathaway had to do was pull those who could help her under her banner and try to divide the opposing faction as much as possible...... There are no eternal enemies in the world, only eternal interests. As long as she can firmly grasp the distribution of benefits.

But it's easier said than done. If you want to use it in the shortest time, and try to be as quiet as possible, this difficulty is much more difficult than when she was a criminal police officer to solve the case, these nobles...... They are politicians in essence, and once their fundamental interests are touched, they will fight back wildly. How to shake their foundation and undermine their alliance of interests is indeed an extremely difficult task, and it is also extremely challenging.

Around eight o'clock in the morning, Ilona walked into Hathaway's room, and as a valet she was ready to enter. At six o'clock, she had already been here once. Only at that time, the door was still closed, and she took it for granted that Hathaway was still sleeping.

"My lord, Madame Pierron, please have breakfast." Ilona reports.

"Hmm." Hathaway nodded. Although she went to bed late yesterday, she was still in good spirits.

In a small dining room at Monica's estate, Demia. Piellen and Connor. Pieron was sitting at the table, all the maids and servants had been sent away, and mother and son were sitting there in a somewhat silent atmosphere.

"Mother, do you really pin your hopes on her?" Connor. Pierren asked, breaking the silence.

"We have no other choice. Although her surname is Bell, she is the same as our enemy. Over the years, if it weren't for her father secretly protecting him, the old lady alone may not have been able to protect her thoroughly. "Demia. Pierren Dao.

"But I've heard that she's been assassinated many times."

"That's because my poor brother can't control that much anymore. However, it also gave me the opportunity to observe her. Well, now that the eagles have shown their claws, it's time for those people to pay for their blood. ”

"But when will that be?" Connor. Pierren sighed.

"Wait patiently, there will always be results. We've been living in Monica Manor all these years to confuse them, and now it's time for us to act, and you have to help her, and this is a good opportunity. ”

At this moment, there was a slight sound of footsteps and talking outside the restaurant, and then Hathaway's figure appeared at the door: "Auntie, Connor, good morning." ”

"Good morning. Hathaway, come and sit. "Demia. Pierren enthusiastically stood up, came to Hathaway, and ushered her into her seat.

"Good morning." Connor. Piellen stood up, unmoved, with a stern expression.

Eating is not a word, this is also aristocratic etiquette, and the servants serve the food, and they only talk about common things at the table.

"Hathaway, let Connor help you, at least it's no problem to run errands." After finishing breakfast, Demia. Pierren said suddenly.

"Of course, the Lord's Mansion is desperately short of manpower right now, and I need help." Hathaway was not surprised, and nodded in agreement without hesitation.

"Very well, when are you leaving?"

"After breakfast, I'm going to say goodbye to Uncle Solo. If Connor wasn't ready, it didn't matter if he was a little late. Hathaway said.

"No, go along." Demia. Pierren said decisively. (To be continued......)
