Chapter 57

"What? He was actually left behind over there, saying that he wanted to help them with their errands?? When she heard her maid convey the news that Kong Ze had tried his best to pass on, Charlotte's tone became a lot heavier, "This useless fellow...... I already knew that he would not be useful at a critical moment! I really don't understand how Charles thinks so highly of him! ”

As she spoke, she tried to stand up, and by the time she realized that she was still combing her hair, a sharp pain had already passed through the roots of her hair.

"Ahh She couldn't help but cry out in pain.

The maid was helping her to tie her hair, and according to her preference for the day, a blonde hair was coiled into two buns, and then gently hung down from the side, this relatively youthful hair accessory looked to have regained a little youthful vitality.

Not only does her face still have the charm she had before she got married, but her personality is as proud and unattractive as in the old days.

"Are you alright, ma'am?" The maid hurriedly put down the comb in her hand and looked at Charlotte with concern.

"It's painful, how can it be okay......" Charlotte frowned, it seemed that this time it really hurt a lot.

This pain intensified her anger towards Kong Ze even more, "It's all to blame on that guy, if you do this kind of thing, how much trouble will you cause us next!" What kind of assistance, he was captured by that side and turned into a hostage...... What incompetence, incompetence! ”

Although it was actually not an easy feat to find Agnes in a short period of time, in Charlotte's opinion, it was originally Kong Ze's obligation and responsibility to complete his orders without compromise and quickly, so he did not feel commendable for Kong Ze's hard work. Her full attention was on the trouble caused by Kong Ze's miscapture and capture.

The maid moved, but looked at Charlotte so annoyed. So I didn't dare to interject, so I had to let Mrs. vent.

After a while. The pain and anger gradually dissipated, and Charlotte regained her composure.

"Where are they now?"

The maid hurriedly attached herself to Charlotte's ear and told Charlotte where they were now.

"Did they tell you anything else besides this news?"

"He's told the young lady about you, too, so now that person knows it's your decision." The maid, who had been with her for many years, knew best about Madame's temper, so she did not dare to drag the mud and water at all, and her answer was very concise. "So, the young lady wants to find out from you how you arranged it...... And also. She also wants to meet you. ”

"Arrangement? What can I do now? Charlotte asked displeased, "Also, how can I run around now that I'm staying here?" She also doesn't think about taking into account the actual situation? Also, what does it mean that she is holding my people up? Can't you trust me? Hum...... Is this the attitude when asking people to do things? ”

Although Agnes was nominally Charlotte's elder, Charlotte didn't have much reverence for her - of course, there was still the necessary respect, so her tone finally softened a little, which was already a very rare favor for her.

Other than that. She knew in her own heart that it was natural for Agnes to be suspicious of herβ€”after all, she was the man's daughter-in-law, and she was originally surnamed Trevill. Who would have fully believed that she would decide to kill her father-in-law after meeting him for the first time?

"Forget it, it's not surprising that she's defensive, if the conditions allow. It's not bad to find a way to meet her......" Under the effect of this mentality, after a while. Charlotte changed her words, "Can you find a way to arrange it?" ”

"If you really want to see it. It's not entirely impossible, after all, the British don't spy on you very closely......" The maid replied at once, apparently having considered the question beforehand, "but I think you'd better not do it now...... Because, that person may have been watching you, and it's hard to assume that he won't find out if you're doing anything else right now, and if you do let him find out you're meeting her, it's going to be very difficult for us to deal with him next. ”

"You have a point." Charlotte nodded, accepting the suggestion. "Yes, at least for now, I'm going to pretend nothing happened."

Then she made a gesture and fell back into her thoughts, and the maid understood, and quickly picked up the comb and combed her hair again.

After a long silence, Charlotte's hair was finally combed, and the slightly curved blonde hair was coiled at the sides, and then hung down along the temples, and the blonde hair swayed slightly, as if she had once again shown the youthful charm of her youth.

"Sure enough, when you get old, you can't be reckless anymore, and if you go out like this, they will laugh to death, and those British people are no worse than the French!" However, Charlotte, who was looking carefully in the mirror, seemed to sigh a little dejectedly, "Forget it, let's change the hairstyle, just follow the trend." We're all going to be mothers, so don't dress like this anymore......"

"How can it not be pretty? It's obviously very good-looking! I don't think any of the ladies in England are as beautiful as you! The maid said, half out of flattery and half out of sincerity, "Really, this hairstyle is really suitable for you, and if the gentleman sees it, he will definitely not be able to move his footsteps!" ”

"Hmph, where will he be, he can't be busy with so many things." Charlotte lowered her brow slightly, as if she looked a little resentful. "I'm the only one who bothered for him, and he didn't have time to take care of me."

The maid didn't say anything more, but raised her eyebrows slightly. The experience of many years had taught her that, although Madame said so on the surface, she must have been very happy in her heart, and it was evident from her eyes.

As long as she makes the young lady happy, she will be relieved of the fatigue of changing her hairstyle again.

"I've already come up with an idea." While the maid was secretly rejoicing in her wit, Charlotte suddenly spoke again.

"Huh?" The maid was puzzled.

"I'm going to write a letter to Charles and tell him it's boring here, and that I'm missing him now. So I want to get back to him as soon as possible. Charlotte said calmly, "And then." I asked him to write me a letter as if he was in a hurry. Let me go back to him. With this letter in hand, I have an excuse to say goodbye to Her Majesty, and I am leaving here. ”

"Get out of here?" The maid was still a little puzzled, "Are you going to leave all this alone?" ”

"How can it not be?" Charlotte asked, "On the contrary, I'm going to let this matter be solved in my hands." ”

Looking at the maid who was still confused, Charlotte continued to explain, "I will tell the gentleman, I have prepared a chance for him to escape. As long as he follows me out of Windsor, I will cover him to London, and then give him a sum of money there to go wherever he wants. Since he's in such a hurry right now, I gave him a lifeline, and he should be eager to grab it, right......"

A slight sneer appeared at the corner of Charlotte's mouth, and it was this sneer that made the maid quickly realize and understand her thoughts. "You mean. He's with you out of Windsor, and then you can find a way to get that young lady to finish him off on the way? ”

Charlotte just sneered and didn't answer the question directly, but the answer was clearly revealed.

After putting aside the initial palpitations. The maid lowered her gaze and tried to think about it.

"That's a good idea, as long as you don't do it here. Then there won't be much commotion, although the British will send someone to escort you. But there should still be opportunities along the way. ”

Then, she quickly thought of a difficulty. "But...... You're on a mission to please the queen here, will you be asked to leave, sir? Not to mention that it's a pretense to quit halfway......"

"Now that I am pregnant with his child, will he not agree to this request? He dares! Charlotte's brow furrowed, and she suddenly became vicious, "I will make it clear in my letter, and if he dares to disobey my request, I will make him look good." ”

Upon hearing this, the maid hurriedly lowered her head, wanting but not daring to laugh.

"As for the queen's favor, I think the queen likes us very much, even if I leave halfway, as long as the reason is passable, it will not cause her dissatisfaction." Charlotte herself couldn't help laughing, and after a moment she said again, "Besides, is the Queen's favor really that important?" I can see through it, and when I can use us, even if I hate us, Her Majesty will entertain us kindly; If we lose ground, what's the point of her looking at us no matter how pleasing it is? No one cared about us then. So my husband and I must not lose power, as long as we don't lose power, we can do anything. ”

As long as her husband does not lose power, Charlotte is willing to do anything.

"If you can do that, you should be able to do it." After thinking for a while, the maid was no longer able to find anything to blame from this method, so she nodded, "Okay, I'll find a way to contact the people who Mr. Kong Ze bought later, and convey your meaning to them......"

"Well, not only do it, but do it quickly." Charlotte clenched her fist slightly, looking full of energy, "I'll write to Charles today, I hope he will get back to me soon." ”

Her ability to act has always been amazing, and if she sees it, she will do it to the end - in her short life so far, the only thing she has done but finally abandoned in the middle is the cause of protecting the king.

"What if the British read your letters?" The handmaiden suddenly thought of another question. "Then they will know that you are cheating on Her Majesty."

Charlotte froze suddenly, then laughed dumbly.

"The British are cunning, but they won't be shameless to that point, right? A private message between husband and wife, I am sure that Her Majesty will not be interested in reading either. But...... You have a point, it's not a bad thing to be cautious in everything, so I'll just write nothing in the letter except trivialities, and let the messenger bring it to him, so there will be no problem, right? ”

"Well, that's for the best." The maid nodded, acknowledging that Charlotte's solution in a short period of time was practical. "Then I'll go and prepare here, and hurry up for you."

Then, she stood up and prepared to leave Charlotte's room.

"Wait!" Just then, Charlotte suddenly stopped her.

"Huh? Anything else? Madam? ”

"There's still time, so there's no need to rush at this time." Charlotte waved her hand slightly, signaling the other party to be calmer, "The more times like this, the more we need to pretend that nothing happened, if you run around frequently, people don't seem suspicious!" Okay, let's talk to me first, we're going to have dinner at lunch, and you can talk to whoever you want. ”

"Madame...... You're right. The maid bowed down and expressed her admiration for Madame's resourcefulness, "I really can't be in a hurry now. ”

Then, she walked back to Charlotte's side.

Charlotte got up from the dresser, and walked to the windowsill, looking out over the vast green fields of England.

"Do you say, is the first child a boy or a girl?"

"Traditionally, people generally want their first child to be a son...... After all, Marshal TrΓ©ville should have been looking forward to his great-grandsons for a long time, and I guess they would prefer boys a little more......" After a moment's consideration, the maid replied in a whisper, "but it depends on your personal preference." ”

"I'm a daughter, doesn't my dad love me? Whether it's a son or a daughter, I forgive Charles and don't dare to make any difference. Charlotte first habitually refuted her, and then lowered her gaze again, "However, you have a point, the first is that the son will always be more convenient, and the old man will be happy." ”

Then, she gently stroked her belly, so gently, as if caressing her own child, that at this moment, her fair and beautiful face seemed to glow with holiness.

"In that case, it must be my son's, after all, God always favors me."

Yes, it's been taken care of to the point of being unbelievable. was born in such a family, has outstanding beauty, and has such a good surname, has been spoiled since childhood, and married such a young and promising husband...... I always feel like all the luck I can have is gone.

Even after following her for many years, the maid's heart still couldn't help but flash a trace of sourness and jealousy. However, she quickly put this senseless emotion aside and bowed slightly, "Heaven does favor you, madam, and will definitely favor you in the future." (To be continued......)
