Sir Ferguson Congreve stared at the young woman in front of him without saying a word, and he recalled with astonishment the appearance of the young woman when he was hunted down by him and Sir Augustine and others when he arrived in Richmondshire.

Although there was no trace of murder in her piercing eyes, her words made Ferguson feel a sense of horror that he had never felt before. Ferguson said slowly: "Ma'am, I don't think the knights other than Joseph have to be killed, at least we can exchange their lives for us a large ransom." ”

Isabel focused her eyes on Jazz's face as she gazed at the stream, and said coldly, "Sir, I want to tell you a word: 'I myself am the God who rules everything, and if I want to conquer the whole world, I must first conquer myself.'" ’”

"Ma'am, who said that? This is simply a wonderful sentence that this person said. Well, I myself am the God who rules everything! Yes, although I will enter Valhalla (the home of Odin, the Viking god and the abode of heroes who have died on earth), I will be able to dominate all that I have before I die. ”

"Sir, calm down. This is what I was told to me by a monk I knew named Hemingway. ”

Ferguson laughed and said, "Ma'am, if you want to go back to Europe, you must take me with you, I would very much like to meet this monk." ”

Isabel laughed inwardly and said, "Stupid, you don't want to see an American in your life who will be born more than three centuries later." Smiling on the surface, he said, "Well, I promise you, Sir." ”

"Well, I'll listen to you, ma'am. Uh, ma'am, haven't Joseph's ardent pursuit of you and the gifts he has given you these days have touched your heart at all? ”

"Sir, I don't really have much interest in extramarital affairs. Well, Brother Hemingway also said: 'Life is about the same as bullfighting.' Either you defeat the ox, or the ox picks you to death. 'Isn't it? ”

"Yes, very good, I will definitely beat this Spanish cow. Ma'am, this monk friend of yours is Spanish? ”

"Of course. Sir, I think you must remember the fact that I studied in a monastery in Spain. ”

On her way back to Nottingham Castle from the west side of the Dukedom, Isabel followed Ferguson on horseback. When she looked at the Aker River on her right, not far from the patrol, she said to Ferguson: "Sir, today is a fast day, right?" ”

Ferguson was in a very good mood thanks to the final decision made by Isabel at the last minute. Riding on a horse, he looked at her and said, "Yes, every Friday commemorates the suffering of Jesus on this day for the crucifixion of mankind." So, the papal see's gang made us abstain from eating the flesh of hot-blooded animals for the rest of the day. ”

Isabel smiled and said, "Sir, do you prefer to eat meat or foods other than meat, such as fish, eggs or milk?" ”

Ferguson tilted his head and thought about it and said with a smile: "Hahaha... I love to eat. ”

"Sir, then I want to catch some fish in that river and eat it, should it be fine?"

"Ma'am, are you crazy? Without His Highness's permission, taking everything from His Highness's territory without permission will be punished. ”

"No, why should I take it? How about we set up a fire here and grill some fish to eat? ”

"Good idea. But you can make sure that the people on the patrol or the farmers who see us grilling fish don't say it? ”

"Sir, didn't you say you were going to defeat that Spanish cow?"

"yes. Life always hurts me a lot, though. ”

"Sir, the world is worth fighting for, even though many times it's not good and ugly."

Ferguson didn't say anything more, he just felt the need to throw away this elegant, enviable job of working for the Duke for a few grilled fish. Isabelle, however, felt that it was no good to catch a few fish to eat in the Aker River, and she believed that the land and all the resources on it should be the private property of Henry VIII and the government of England, not the private property of a lord.

————————————

The sun appeared in the sky just after 3 p.m., and the overcast sky began to clear up. After completing today's sword training content, Isabel followed Sir Augustine back to the captain's room.

Augustine looked at Isabel's expression, and when the other party took the saber he had unloaded, he smiled and said, "Isabel, now that you are a member of the Walton family, you can say whatever you want." ”

At present, Isabel is still accustomed to the sudden addition of such a knightly father in her life, and said with a smile: "Sir, do you think I should call you father, or should I call you Sir the same as before." ”

"You can call me whatever you like. Well, Isabel, Your Highness didn't ask me to teach you knightly skills in hunting, but as your father and teacher of knights, I think you should get familiar with hunting as soon as possible. ”

"Well, no problem. Only, sir, may I borrow your pack horse first? ”

"What, you want to go to the county and run around again? No, now that you already have a horse yourself, why should you borrow my pack horse? ”

"Sir, I need your pack horse to go to Rees and bring back the custom-made longbow and arrows."

Augustine spoke to Isabel with a look and tone that became more and more like he was speaking to his youngest daughter, Euphemia, and said with a slight frown: "Isabel, how many longbows and arrows have you ordered?" Need a pack horse? ”

Isabel seems to have a certain sense of boredom with this middle-aged knight "father" emotionally, just as most children are tired of their parents. Silently, he put his two knightly swords on his waist, straightened up the leather armor and clothing on his body, and said, "Sir, if you don't want to borrow it, forget it." I can go to anybody, anyone, even the duke's horse. ”

Isabel turned around and was about to leave, but Augustine hurriedly stopped her: "Isabel, you wait. ”

Sir shook his head, stepped forward and whispered beside her, "I believe in you, son, as much as I believe in your mother, your brother, and your sister.

Isabel glanced at her father and said, "Well, since you believe me, you should lend me the pack horse." ”

"I agree to your request. However, be careful on horseback on the road, and you should dismount and salute no matter which nobleman you meet. ”

"God, sir, I see!"

Another point is that if you have any arguments with others, you can ask your friends to ask them for a satisfactory explanation. If the other party offers to fight a duel, you must not be a coward and become a disgrace to the Walton family. ”

"I remember, sir, see you later!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Isabel trotted out of the guard's station without looking back. At the moment, she was really afraid that Augustine would continue to be verbose with her like this. In that case, she wouldn't be able to finish her business before dinner.
