The carnival lasted until late at night, and Carolan first ate and drank at the same table with Hugo, and then was arrested by Otto, saying that he wanted to introduce a few friends to him, saying that he could help him promote brown sugar and the like, and secretly told Carolan that he had his share in it, and Michael had agreed to his approach. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Hearing Otto's heart-to-heart confession, Carolan instantly expelled the alcohol she had just drunk in her stomach through a cold sweat.

"It seems that Otto was not easily forced by Hedwissy, and the old thing in Bavaria is also ruthless enough on both sides." Listening to Otto complaining about his current situation, Carolan was also secretly frightened of Arnulf's methods. Actually forced Otto like this through Hedwisie, this hand is really vicious.

It has been said before that Hedwisy actually has a group of nobles who support it, and the most important thing is that almost all of these nobles are Saxon nobles. If Hedwisy wants to compete with Otto, he must rely on the support of Bavaria, and it is difficult for Henry the Bird Catcher to intervene in this kind of matter for various reasons, after all, if Henry intervenes, it is very easy to cause internal divisions among the Saxon aristocracy, which Henry does not want to see.

"No wonder Henry was at the door to say that about me... Carolan immediately thought of Henry's strange behavior at the door, and thought that Henry wanted to support Otto, who had a little weak foundation, through his own hands.

After all, Otto is actually very embarrassed, and the people who support him are basically Henry the bird catcher, in other words, those who support Henry support him. So Otto actually has no hardcore supporters on the outside except for his henchmen, or in other words, the royal party is his supporter outside, but when Henry deliberately suppressed the royal party's support for Otto because of internal reasons, Otto found that he had no advantage in the face of Hedwisie.

"There is nothing wrong with the brown sugar matter, just follow the plan you discussed with Michael, I don't have any opinion." While speeding through the information she had recently learned in her head, Caroline expressed her full support for Otto.

"Hey, thank you, I wouldn't be so embarrassed if it weren't for the fact that Gyselbert hadn't been crazy lately and started supporting Hedwisy with all his might. Last time in the Kingdom Council, they almost launched an impeachment against Penny and my relationship. Otto is also very helpless about the current situation in the kingdom, feeling that the world has changed too quickly recently, and the balance between the royal party and the tribal camp in the previous decades has almost been destroyed, and the conflicts are not only increasing, but also the means are becoming more and more secretive.

"If I were you, I would get enough money and start my own national tour, and you can't support a prince Otto who is by the side of Henry the Bird Catcher, but you can support a prince Otto who is traveling the whole country." Carolan looked at Otto with a sad face for a long time, and then suddenly blurted out such a sentence.

"What? But I've been learning my father's statecraft lately. Otto blurted out such a sentence as if he had been confused by Caroline's sudden suggestion, but as soon as he finished speaking, Otto himself laughed, and he also realized how silly his words were.

"Statecraft or something, when you are the king, you will naturally be able to do it." Carolan looked at Otto looking into her eyes, and unexpectedly said her opinion frankly, knowing that although this is not China, it is also very taboo to talk like this, especially when Henry is still alive.

“。。。 Caroline, you're ripe... Hearing Caroline's bold words, Otto fell silent. It took a long time to squeeze out such a reply, but his expression was unexpectedly relaxed. "But you're right, it's time for me to get out of here, Memleben belongs to Henry the Birdcatcher, not to Otto. Do you have any suggestions for a good place to go? ”

"West bank of the Elbe. With the east wind of the Eastern Crusade, you can take off directly... Oh no, it's developed. Moreover, the transportation is convenient, and future development can also rely on the resources of the east and the waterway of the Elbe River to plan. Coupled with the proximity to Saxony and the remoteness of the tribal aristocracy, I don't think there's anything better to do than there. Carolan simply didn't do anything, and said her thoughts in one go.

“。。。。。。。。 Carolan, you must be an excellent palace minister in the future. Well, your mother seems to be calling you, there is a surprise! After Otto had said a very suggestive sentence, he became uninhibited again, and after the last sentence of ridicule, he clasped his hands on his chest and watched the confused Carolan walk towards Lady Canossa's side with a posture of waiting to see a good show.

"Mother, are you looking for me?" Caroline saw from afar the strange smile on Lady Canossa looking at her face, just as she had smiled when she saw her elementary school nephew looking for a girlfriend before she crossed over, and Caroline suddenly felt her scalp tingle.

"It's your father looking for you, come with me, they're in the study." Canossa didn't mean to explain, and after saying a few words, she pulled Carolan in the direction of the study.

"They? Who else but my father? Carolan was keenly aware of the message in Lady Canossa's words, and he felt that everything was so strange today. Carolan has a feeling that she has been tricked, just like when she used to play LOL, she saw the blood of her opponent dancing and provoking, and she didn't need to think about it to know that there were hundreds of blind monks hidden in the grass.

"Why do you ask so much, you will know when you go, there is a surprise." Canossa didn't look back, so Carolan didn't want to ask for news.

"Oh! I hate surprises. Carolan wailed, and resigned herself to following Canossa to her study.

・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・

At the moment when she pushed open the door, Carolan had the feeling that she was frightened by the formation waiting for her in the study, because there were five big men sitting in the study: Henry the Birdcatcher, King of East Francia, Michael Tobias, Hermann Klose, the new Duke of Swabia Conrad I, and Duke Paul of Franconia. Well, except for the Duke of Franconia, who is a little disobedient, everything else is normal.

"Little Caroline? You invented this chess game? Before Caroline could react from this somewhat exaggerated stance, Henry the Birdcatcher spoke.

"Well, yes, I saw this kind of game in ancient Egypt from the classics, and it was said that it was very suitable for aristocratic children to start their education, so I made it as a birthday gift for Kangrad. I think it's very meaningful. Caroline was a little confused when she saw the king's chess piece in Henry's hand.

"Hahaha Of course, I've already heard your mother introduce the rules of the game, it's very interesting, come, let's have the next game." Henry the Bird Catcher waved his hand to interrupt Caroline's idea of bringing out the so-called story of the origin of ancient Egyptian chess, and directly said what he wanted to do, yes, for Henry, it was just a good game, and he didn't care about the origin or anything.

"Uh... Okay," Seeing Herman nodding at her, Caroline walked across from Henry and played with him.

Time flies

"Hahaha, Caroline, you're good." Henry was undoubtedly educated on the board by Caroline, and no matter how clever Henry was, he could not have beaten Caroline, who had been playing chess for more than a decade, after he first came into contact with chess. Fortunately, Henry didn't care about the outcome at all, and after a few laughs, he left the study with the Duke of Swabia and the Duke of Franconia, leaving only Carolan and Hermann and Michael alone.

“。。。。。。。” Caroline was in a state of confusion now, and she didn't know what she was doing.

“。。。 Ay.. Herman looked at Carolan, who was a little dazed, and sighed, then walked to the main seat where Henry was sitting and sat down, and then took a slow time before speaking. Caroline, I'm going to take you and Rudolph to this crusade. ”

"Ahh Oh. Carolan had been prepared for this, so she wasn't at all surprised to hear Herman say that.

"I am prepared to give up our family's possessions at Fort Quetta in exchange for His Majesty's full support for our family in the Blannie Bell region." Perhaps dissatisfied with Caroline's overly bland reaction, Herman threw out a big revelation.

"Huh? Damn, does Brother Rudolph know about this? Caroline's first reaction was that Rudolph knew about it.

"I've already decided on this, and Rudolph has known about it for a long time." Herman snorted dissatisfiedly, seemingly dissatisfied with Carolan's reaction.

"Ahh Your Majesty, is this what you want the nobles on our side to devote themselves to the development of Blaneybell? Let's exchange the land of Saxony for the land of the Blanniber region? When Carolan saw Herman's face, she realized that Herman wanted to see things with a more mature eye.

"Well, His Majesty wishes to promote a duke in the Blaneybell region after His Highness Otto ascends the throne." Herman continued to break the news without changing his face.

“。。。。 What a big game of chess. Caroline was numb, he now felt that his vision was too limited, and Henry had quietly begun to pave the way for the future Otto to begin.

"In this case, our family's strength within Saxony will be greatly reduced, but fortunately, your Uncle Michael is willing to support us." Herman's face was a little unpleasant when he said this, obviously he didn't want to say these things but had to say them.

"Ahh Caroline felt that it was better to be an echo worm at this time.

"Little Carolan, I talked to your father, and I think you and my daughter Diana are very compatible~~~ And our Tobias family is not ready to participate in this Blaneybell reclamation." Michael still looked like he was frowning, but his words were very interesting.

"Well, why wouldn't Rudolph be more suitable for me ,,, alliance?" Carolan hated the situation of having to do it.

"The second son and the second daughter, the perfect marriage~ it's just an alliance~~~" Michael suddenly became serious again, and bit very clearly on the words second son and second daughter.

"Boom!" Caroline felt that her brain was about to explode at this time, because he remembered that just now, when Michael secretly found himself in the banquet hall, he said the original words: My only daughter: Diana!

"Okay, Caroline, it's good that you know it in your heart, we will take care of the engagement from Jane, and we will get married after you get the title of Blaneybell." Herman didn't seem to see Caroland's strange appearance of suddenly raising her head and staring at Michael, and directly waved her hand to signal that Caroline could go out.

“。。。” Carolan looked at the two big guys as if they still had something to say in private, and could only walk out of the study with a somewhat confused brain, and he remembered that Michael also had an eldest son, named Torres, who had been studying in Rome.

"By the way, I like this chess very much, little Carolan, you remember to make a pair and send it to me! Children should be able to honor their father-in-law! When Carolan opened the door to her study, Michael shouted from behind her.

Nodding her head to indicate that she had heard, Caroline walked out of the room, and the moment she closed the door, a familiar and flat voice sounded: "I like it too, and I have one for me." ”

Hearing this flat voice, Caroline's heart was hot, and all the uneasiness in her heart suddenly let go, because he knew that the owner of this voice would definitely not harm himself.
