Before entering the parlor, Captain Hawkins had no idea that the guest he was going to meet would be a young aristocratic woman. He was suspicious that the young woman's outfit was completely inconsistent with the status and status of a noble lady, and resembled a knight's squire in a loose laced tunic with leggings, high riding boots, and a cavalry cuirass.

However, judging from the first meeting between the two just now, she faintly exuded a kind of demeanor and grandeur that only nobles, knights and gentlemen could have, as well as a reserve, pride and conceit that fascinated him. He decided to try again before starting the meeting, in order to resolve the myriad doubts that had crossed his mind.

Sitting on the main seat in the center of the parlor, leaning forward slightly, with a smile on his face that did not make people doubt in the slightest, he looked at the young woman sitting on the left, "Well, Miss Isabel, it is probably because I have not yet become a superior person that I have not been able to get the opportunity to meet with noble ladies and ladies. So, my family and I are not very familiar with aristocratic women. ”

Isabel glanced reservedly at the Plymouth celebrity, a great merchant and pirate leader, and the corners of her mouth turned to the right, "Captain Hawkins, I guess you mean that I don't look like a noble lady myself, do I?" ”

The captain laughed, leaned forward and leaned back on the back of the chair, holding the armrest with both hands and looking at his brother Richard on the right, "My brother, what do you think?" ”

Richard, who sat on his seat with one leg crossed, looked thoughtfully at Isabelle, who was sitting across from him. After a long time, he slowly spit out a sentence, "William, I can't say it well." ”

Isabel, who also had one leg crossed, stared at Richard with her left hand on her left cheek, and said leisurely to little Beard Smith, who was standing behind her, "Yoman, go and call the two flag guards to come in from the cavalry with the swallowtail spear flag." ”

"Yes, Your Excellency." Little Beard replied sharply, and quickly left the parlor after nodding to each of the three people present.

Captain Hawkins stared at the back of little Beard leaving, and suddenly there was a sense of surprise that the young man standing behind Isabel was actually a Yomannon. Quietly glanced at his brother, raised his eyebrows, and seemed to say, "Do you know the identity of this man?" ”

Richard shook his head silently, and looked at Isabel across from him. At this time, there was silence in the living room, and even the several attendants standing on either side of the main seat closed their lips, not daring to provoke the captain or the captain's brother easily.

A short time later, Baldwin and Fast each armed with a light rifle entered the parlor, led by little Beard, and stood side by side in front of Captain Hawkins with guns. Isabel lazily glanced at the two swallowtail spear flags embroidered with different noble coats of arms, "Yoman, tell them which nobleman the two coats of arms belong to." ”

"Yes, Your Excellency." Little Beard nodded at her, pointed to the spear flag on the light rifle in Fast's hand on the left, and looked at Captain Hawkins solemnly, "Sir, the coat of arms on this guard spear flag is the noble coat of arms of the Duke of Richmond, have you noticed the crown on the top of the shield?" This indicates that this coat of arms is only enjoyed by members of the royal family. Nobles who are not members of the royal family use the crown as a heraldic shield crest, and will be sentenced to aggravated treason and the death penalty! ”

Captain Hawkins' face changed, and he swallowed. At this time, little Beard walked to Baldwin's side again, pointed to the coat of arms on the spear flag, and explained solemnly again: "Sir, this is a shield with a left partal oblique part, two parallel lines diagonally across the bottom of the shield, and a black and gold oblique stripe to mark the coat of arms. This is the coat of arms of Lord Walton and his family, designed by the House of Heraldry and handed over to the Lord Walton family for hereditary enjoyment. ”

Little Beard looked at the captain, whose eyes were wide and already dizzy, and added triumphantly, "Like the coat of arms of the Duke of Richmond, any knight, squire, gentleman, joman, sergeant, and commoner who uses it without the authorization of Lord Walton shall be arrested and sentenced to death for treason." ”

"Ahem, Mr. Hawkins, my father's official title Lord Walton is Baron I of Kirklington, and Kirkeyton is my family's hereditary domain." Isabel squinted at Captain Hawkins and coughed lightly. In fact, she was very reluctant to explain her father's title and territory, because everyone in the north knew who her father was and who she was.

For a moment, Captain Hawkins was so embarrassed that he wanted to shove his face under his ass. Young Yomanon and the aristocratic lady's glamorous explanations of the coat of arms, titles, and domains of nobility made him feel that he had thrown his face to the Canary Islands, a Spanish overseas colony in the Atlantic, to be trampled on by the Spanish colonists on the island.

Isabel felt like she had been sitting for a long time, and then she stood up. At the moment of her standing, she noticed that the captain and his brother also stood up, as if they wanted to salute herself. With his hands behind his back, he turned to look at the captain and smiled lightly, "Sir, I don't want to say so much at all, because no nobleman or descendant of a nobleman is willing to tell anyone else about these matters. ”

Captain Hawkins had fully listened and asked plainly, "Miss, why is that?" ”

Isabel pursed her lips and smiled, looked down at the tips of her boots and looked up at the captain, "Sir, as a nobleman, you must have the ability to restrain yourself. However, he must dedicate his all, including his life, to His Majesty the King and the royal family at all times. ”

After a pause, he calmly explained: "Loyalty to His Majesty the King and the royal family is a noble duty inherent in nobles. Sir, you and your brother do not believe in me, and I will still forgive you. Why? Because this is the demeanor of the nobility, a kind of magnanimity, a kind of benevolence. ”

"Of course, in order to defend the honor of the nobles, every nobleman and their descendants will fight to the death." Isabel grinned, "Sir, your two sailors have taken a toll on my noble honor by plundering my ranks by force, so I will fight for justice and justice." ”

Captain Hawkins sat heavily in his chair and muttered in realization, "Perhaps, this is what I am looking for, fighting for justice and justice." ”

Richard looked at his brother as if he didn't understand, and then sat down again in silence. Isabel looked at it all with her piercing eyes, and smiled eeriely. Captain Hawkins pondered for a long time and stared at Isabel with a distracted eye, "Miss, then, why didn't you kill my two sailors?" ”

Isabel pouted, "It's an injustice that I refuse to engage in sword fighting with two drunks. ”
