The Duchy of Byrne, the Turin family of the Red Blood Castle is comparable to the dragon king family de Salion, standing at the top of the Sakrand Empire.

At this moment, the current Countess Charlotte Turin was sitting in the vault, a palace belonging to Brandon de Salion, and the attendants and maids on either side trembled and did not dare to say a word.

As a vassal earl, not to mention stepping into the Heavenly Dome Palace, Charlotte Turin Countess should not even be qualified to be seen, and leaving the fief without reason is a capital offense.

But this does not apply to the countess of the Red Blood Castle.

Generations change, times change, but the House of Turin does not change... At least not for now.

Turin is Byrne, and Byrne is Turin...... Even the Sakran had heard this southern slang for the umpteenth time, and even de Salion had never attained such prestige among the Sakrands.

Because the Duchy of Byrne and the House of Turin were different from the other Grand Dukes - they were not conquered by force by the Sakran Empire, but chose to bend their knees and swear allegiance to His Majesty Eckhart I in the second generation for a promise and retribution.

Even after being stripped of the title of Grand Duke, and even the Duchy itself being taken care of by the Governor sent by the Empire, all the financial and military powers were stripped away, and two generations later, the glory represented by that surname is still extremely dazzling and prestigious.

Even in the royal trial, Eckhart II set aside a seat for her, and no one dared to say anything more - in the eyes of all the nobles of the imperial capital, the Turin family, who had been deprived of the title of duke, was still equal to the archduke of all duchies, or at least above the consuls of Eboden.

The leader of the Turin family, whose status is second only to His Majesty the Emperor, does not need to be heard to visit a prince who is even in second place in terms of inheritance.

His Royal Highness the Prince, who was caught off guard at all, had an extremely wonderful expression - he slept late last night, his hair was messed up like a hedgehog, he only wore an underwear on his upper body, there was only one boot on his feet and it was reversed, and a pair of red eyes that stayed up all night became even redder.

Brandon was pretty sure that Charlotte looked at her with a very good look of disdain.

But well...... He's used to it.

"Uh... I wonder what's the matter with the Countess Charlotte Turin?"

Brandon smiled brightly from under the messy red hair, and in the face of the countess's cold and haughty gaze, he pulled out his chair and sat down without any care, and his polite gesture made people mistakenly think that he was not wearing underwear, but the dress he wore when he met the emperor.

Looking at the playful gaze of His Royal Highness the Prince, as well as the appearance that was not polite at all, the countess who secretly gritted her teeth was heartbroken, and her white hands were exposed.

Calm down, be sure to be calm.

He did this on purpose, and if he wanted to test his tricks, he definitely couldn't be fooled easily... Otherwise, he will definitely take advantage of him.

Charlotte Turin knew only a little about Brandon de Salion, from the famous disgraced prince to the hero who destroyed the rule of the free aristocracy at Ebolden, and the fortress of Broken Mountain...... Then, he won the most glorious victory in the Imperial Trial.

Of course, the one who really won the pre-trial was Loren Turin... But without Brandon, he wouldn't even have this opportunity, and the Royal Academy of Wizards didn't choose to betray in the end, most likely because of him, but because of His Highness Brandon de Salion.

Cunning, changeable, insidious...... This is the label Charlotte put on His Royal Highness, and Brandon in her eyes almost wrote the words "I am a bad person" directly on her head.

Of course, the same goes for that Loren Turin...... The proud countess of Turin would not admit that this guy who suddenly appeared was actually a blood relative of her own family.

Although there is a request for them, it does not mean that you have to abandon your dignity and grovel.

For the sake of the family, the Red Blood Castle, the principality......

No return!

Charlotte took a deep breath, puffed up her proud chest, and a pair of sword eyebrows were heroic:

"I'm here to fulfill the promise, Your Highness Brandon. ”

"Well, there's no outsider here, so there's no need for that formal ......" Brandon waved his hand and patted his chest awkwardly, "Of course, I never doubted you - Loren told me about that, Charlotte." ”

The countess still had a frosty face, and did not smile: "Please respect yourself, Your Highness, I am the Turin family, the earl of the Red Blood Castle, and besides, you and I are not familiar enough to call your name directly!"

"What's the matter, isn't it just a title, it's ...... sooner or later anyway" The impatient Brandon muttered quietly, and after seeing the countess's increasingly ugly expression, he hurriedly waved his hand and smiled flatteringly:

"Uh...... Of course, if you don't agree, forget it!"

When the words fell, the countess's expression improved slightly, but it didn't give him much of a good look, so that His Royal Highness couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

According to the previous agreement between himself and Charlotte, as long as he can obtain the allegiance of the Royal Wizarding Academy, the Turin family of the Red Blood Castle will support him.

Although the Duchy of Byrne has become a province, the House of Turin still has unrivaled influence in Byrne, and is the only ally that Brandon can win...... Otherwise, whether it is the Archduke of Ellemont or Lothair, how could these people listen to themselves?

As for how to support and how to support, the two sides have not made it clear, let alone necessary...... The current leader of the Turin family is Charlotte, which means that there are no men in the Turin family's direct line.

The only way to continue the bloodline of the Turin family without being robbed of the family territory by outsiders, or even the title, is to marry a nobler bloodline, and at the same time avoid the possibility of being annexed.

Of course, Charlotte can also choose side members of the family, but doing so will not help the rise of the Turin family...... The Turin family, which had been weakened for two generations, had to have outside help if it wanted to recover.

The person who took the principality was the tenth generation of the Dragon Empress, and if she wanted to regain the title, she had to have the approval of another supreme emperor.

Charlotte, bet on Brandon!

That's what you say...... Brandon scratched his head, at the moment, he really needs a prestigious and weak family like the Turin family to become his foreign aid, otherwise it will be useless to rely only on the wizards of the imperial capital.

But it's one thing to say and another to do - in addition to Aunt Fitronay, he really can't stand the fact that there is a second woman around him who also doesn't give him a good face and can't even make jokes.

But if you want to draw the Turin family to your side, there seems to be no second way to go other than this...... Even if they are reluctant, if they can't express it a little, how can they be convinced of their sincerity.

Wait a minute... Sincerity?

Brandon was stunned.

"What's that look on your face?"

Looking at His Royal Highness the Prince, who suddenly tilted his head and remained motionless, the proud Countess Charlotte did not give him half a good face.

"It's nothing, it's just that I figured something out of nowhere. Shrugging disapprovingly, Brandon smiled like a child, "Let's stop pretending, Countess Charlotte Turin." ”

When the words fell, the countess's expression was a little ugly, and she frowned slightly: "What do you mean?"

"Obviously, we don't like each other very much - even if we stand together for our own interests, sooner or later our alliance will fall apart because of conflict... I don't think that after I have offended you so much, the Turin family can still stand behind me without hesitation. ”

Brandon, who was spread out in his chair, said very directly, with a nonchalant expression: "So, for the sake of each of us, I propose a new way to maintain our alliance... Not only to meet the needs of the House of Turin, but also to give me a strong enough aid to fight against my beloved royal brother. ”

"A whole new way?"

Charlotte raised her eyebrows slightly, the quivering corners of her eyes already revealing her curiosity.

"That's right!" the corners of his mouth curled triumphantly, and Brandon snapped his fingers slightly:

"And I have a bold idea about that......"
