Section 13: The Duke's Sister

Herman. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Although Billon teased, he did not let his guard down, but in the face of the soldiers holding large shields to surround them, even the most skilled swordsman could not do anything.

"I'll do my best to break a gap in a moment, and you can escape from there!" Herman. Billund secretly called him unlucky, he knew that he would not come to the market to join in the fun, but he was not afraid, even if he died in battle, he would maintain the glory of nobility.

"Wait a minute, don't worry, maybe my family will come back to me." See Herman. Billund's whole body was tense like a cat, and he was ready to attack with his sword, and the girl quickly grabbed him and said to Herman.

"Family? Not. "Herman. Billon was surprised to hear the girl's words, but then smiled bitterly, even if the girl was really from a noble family, it was impossible for the sheriff Haydn to let them go without the king's order under the current situation, not to mention that Prince Otto's brother Donkmar was watching from the sidelines.

"Hey, hey, hey, hey." The soldiers who surrounded Herman and the girl let out a neat shout, and the tower-shaped shields they lifted were connected, like an impregnable wall, with spears at the top of the concave, and the encirclement was gradually shrinking, and Herman and the girl's backs were tightly pressed together, because of the tension in the face of danger, they unconsciously held each other's hands.

"Haydn, grab them now." Donkmar commanded the sheriff.

"Yes." Sheriff Haydn drew his sword from his waist and swung it at Herman and the maiden, and the soldiers immediately raised their large shields to hold them against them, and then arrested the two so-called "criminals".

"It's over." Herman. Billon looked at the tip of the spear that was almost against his chest, he could almost feel the cold iron, sweat on his forehead, but the soft back of his back brought him a hint of warmth.

"Brother." Looking at the tip of the spear sticking out of the shield, suddenly the girl's face became pale, her breathing became a lot faster, and some fragments of the scene appeared in her mind, like a tide pouring in, flames, swords and crimson blood, as if there was a sword collision and human howls in her ears.

"Miss, miss, what's wrong with you?" Suddenly, Herman felt that the girl behind him had slipped down, and he quickly turned around and hugged the girl, but the sword in his hand fell to the ground with a bang and didn't care.

"Ha, I'm so scared to see these criminals that I don't know what to do." Donkmar and Sheriff Haydn saw the scene before them and smiled triumphantly, but at that moment, from outside the bazaar came the neighing of horses, and the sound of horses' hooves.

"What's going on?" Sheriff Haydn had a surprised look on his face, he didn't know what was going on outside, and staggered back a few steps.

"Gray Law ~~~." I saw a group of horsemen rushing into the bazaar from the streets, wearing high fur hats, wearing distinctive cloaks diagonally, with a one-winged wooden shield hanging on one side of the horse, each with a saber at his waist and a bundle of javelins behind his horse.

"Wow, is it Magyars?" The civilians who had been watching the bustle in the bazaar saw the group of cavalry rushing in, with the faces of Eastern European Slavs, and immediately shouted in panic, and the originally open windows were closed one after another.

"Magyars, how is that possible?" Donkmar was dumbfounded, he did not believe that the Magyars would be able to break through the numerous castles east of the Elbe and make it to Quedlinburg.

"You idiots, this is not Magyars, they are the Hussar cavalry of the Duke of Mecklenburg." Of course, there were also discerning nobles and merchants who explained to the panicked people that sure enough, they had seen a black lion on the one-winged wooden shield, and that they had indeed seen the family coat of arms during the ceremony to welcome Arrod into the city.

"Take it." The leader of the Hussar cavalry was Ted, Arrod's retainer who had been subdued during his conquest of the West Slavs, and he grabbed the reins of his horse with one hand and looked around left and right, as if looking for something.

"How did Lord Duke Mecklenburg's people end up here?" The Saxon nobles around Donkmar said in wonder, they looked at this group of cavalry like long horses, this group of cavalry itself had a fierce look of anticipation, and at a glance they knew that they were warriors who often went to the battlefield to kill the enemy.

"Is it a courtier of Lord Meckron? I wonder what you're doing here? Haydn, as a sheriff, could not be a bystander, so he hurriedly stepped forward and asked.

"Where's the Duke's sister?" Ted ignored Sheriff Haydn, who was Arold's courtier and was not subject to jurisdiction even in the face of the king's sheriff.

"What, Lord Duke's sister?" Hearing Ted's words, the sheriff Haydn was taken aback, the Duke of Mecklenburg was favored by the king at this time, although the Duke of Mecklenburg's prestige was slightly worse than that of the Duke of Bavaria, but it was not something that a low-ranking nobleman like him could afford to provoke, not to mention looking at the fierce appearance of this group of Hussar cavalry, if he annoyed them, he would definitely have a scimitar on his head.

"Yes, where is Miss Lena?" Ted shouted anxiously.

"I, we haven't seen Miss Lena, there's no Duke's sister here!" Sheriff Haydn was about to cry out in a hurry, why was he so unlucky, first Donkmar had a quarrel with the people of the Billon family, and now there was a duke's sister.

"Come on, come on, call the doctor." At this time, Herman sounded in the middle of the encirclement of soldiers. Billund's shouting, hearing Herman's voice, Ted and the others hurriedly looked over there, and Ted was taken aback when he saw it.

"Miss Lena, you bastards, get out of here." Ted saw that it was Arold's sister Lena who was surrounded by soldiers, and to make matters worse, she fainted in the arms of a Saxon nobleman, and Ted desperately urged his horse forward, knocking the soldiers away with a neighing of his horse.

"Ah~~." The soldiers of the sheriff, who were suddenly attacked in the back, fled in panic, and their spears and shields fell to the ground, while the Hussar cavalry was known for their fierceness and undiscipline, they let out shouts and waved their horsewhips left and right, pumped at the soldiers in front of them, and deftly manipulated their horses under their crotches to squeeze into the crowd, and finally drove the soldiers away.

"Stop, stop, in the name of the king." Haydn, the sheriff, was sweating profusely, and he looked at the Hussar cavalry who had whipped his own soldiers, trying to stop them.

"Brush~~." But the Hussar cavalry has long run out of patience, they often perform the most dangerous tasks, and those who can survive are some fierce warriors, in the face of the sheriff's obstruction, they almost subconsciously drew their swords, which were specially designed by Arold to be made for immediate slashing, exuding the luster of the snowman.

"Ah~~." At this moment, all the soldiers who were in the way avoided it, they were just soldiers to maintain law and order, why should they give their lives here at this time.

"Huh?" Herman. Billon looked at the scattered soldiers, and then a group of cavalrymen with the face of a West Slav appeared in front of him, when they saw Herman. When Billon was holding Lena, he quickly inserted the saber back into the scabbard, and then jumped off the horse.

"I'm sorry, Miss Lena, we came to pick you up on the orders of the Duke." The Hussar cavalry, led by Ted, knelt down on one knee in front of Lena and said to herna.

"Wow~~, that girl turned out to be the sister of the Duke of Mecklenburg." The people watching the excitement on the sidelines were amazed that many civilians were fascinated by this twists and turns, which was simply a good story that could be told to their grandchildren by the fireplace in old age.

"Damn, even the Duke of Mecklenburg can go wild in Quedlinburg? I'm going to report to His Majesty, don't think that's it. Looking at the back of Hussar's cavalry who was carrying him on his horse and heading towards Quedlinburg, Donkemar said with a grim face.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm lucky to have met Lord Ted, or I really don't know what kind of mess will happen." The bald old man and his wife hid on the corner of the street, and said with a sigh of relief as they watched the cavalry leave in a puff of smoke.

When Lena was sent to Quedlinburg by Ted, Arold was already anxious like an ant on a hot pot, and he had already scolded the maid twice because he was angry, and even Princess Josie didn't know how to advise her husband.

"Lord Duke, Ted has found Miss Lena, and they have entered the inner city." At this time, an attendant reported to Arold and others.

"Are you back? That's great. Arold breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and the Wendell family was now only three brothers and sisters.

"Still, though." The squire stood in front of Arrod and said in a slur manner.

"What's wrong?" Arrod's brow furrowed, and he asked anxiously.

"Miss Lena was brought in by Ted and the others, as if Miss fainted." The attendant hurriedly said.

"What?" Arold couldn't sit still anymore when he heard this, and he told Shirley to go and take care of Lena immediately, in short, there was a lot of chickens and dogs jumping where Arold was.

Lena was lying on a bed covered in bearskin, with four bedposts covered with a light curtain, which was originally a bedroom for Arrod, but in order to allow Lena to have a better rest, Arold had Lena carried directly into his bedroom, while he and Princess Josie sat outside in the guest bedroom.

"Arode, don't worry too much, Shirley has already seen it, it should be fine." Princess Josie reached out and took Arrod and comforted him.

"Well, since the Fort Lida incident, I have often dreamed of the burning castle, and my father and mother stood in front of the castle and looked at me directly, as if to reproach me for not saving them earlier." Arold sat in his chair, his head down at the embroidered patterns on his robe.

"Arrod, you're too tired, don't think so much, no one can hurt us anymore." Princess Josie stepped forward distressedly, hugged Arold and said to him.
