Chapter 18: Mirror Lake

The territory obtained by Carolan this time was made up by Otto and Michael on the basis of the original Iris Manor according to the fief area that a real baron should have, and this territory is located near Memleben, which includes a rich place like Iris Manor, so Carolan is actually very satisfied with this gift. www.biquge.info As long as she truly controls the land, then Carolan can lay a solid foundation for her future.

You must know that the next twenty years of the continent of Europa is about to undergo a great reshuffle era: returnees from overseas are about to return from England to the Kingdom of West Francia to rebuild the Carolingian dynasty, and the once glorious Carolingian empire will also exhaust its last light and heat under the prying eyes of countless nobles of the West Frankish Kingdom, and finally collapse under the joint efforts of the Capetian family and Otto. The Kingdom of East Francia in German land was about to become more brilliant, and the Eastern Slavic conquest of Italy to achieve European hegemony. In the east, Byzantium (in order to distinguish between the Roman Empire founded by Carolan and Otto and the Roman Empire in Greece, the Roman Empire in Greece was called Byzantine by default), the Macedonian dynasty was successfully restored under the protection of the walls of Constantinople Theosido, Simon is dead, and the ancient Roman Empire is about to begin its bloody revenge against the Bulgarians and Arabs and return to the top of this world.

At a time when this turbulent era was about to begin, it was of great significance to Caroline to acquire such a rich and potential territory. Although she rejected Michael's extreme methods, this does not mean that Carolan will easily let go of Saan and the Goethe family who dare to challenge their ruling authority in this land. When Robert had managed to control the situation in the manor, Carolan decided to use this opportunity to teach Saan and the Goethe family a good lesson.

In the 21st century, the Church allows, if you don't fight back immediately in this matter, you will lose yourself. Wise people are always only a very few, and the vast majority of people have limited vision, they are like Xia Cicada in the story of Xia Cicada's unspeakable ice, stubbornly believing that what they see is the whole world, they will only think that the one with the most gorgeous clothes on the table is the final winner, and then foolishly and blindly cheer for him; So Caroline had to wake them up with a backhand on the spot and tell them who was the one who could call the shots now.

Amid the flying irises of flare-de-lis, the cavalry of the Klose family, dressed in heavy armor, staggered forward in several columns, alerting for all possible enemy attacks while keeping Carolan in the middle of the line from any angle of surveillance.

Looking at this group of mighty and well-disciplined cavalry, Sa'an, who had been cursing Carolan just now, was silent, bowing his head and not knowing what he was thinking.

At this time, Carolan didn't care about Sa'an's thoughts at all, yes, Sa'an was well-connected in the aristocratic circle of Memleben, and the relationship between his sister Penny and Otto was even more tricky, but so what? In the face of absolute force, all this is illusory, and these warriors are the greatest confidence for Carolan to dare to hold Saan hostage to provoke and fight back against the Goethe family in person.

The procession, under Heinrich's command, quickly approached the Mirror Lake, and soon the scouts reported that they could see the lake beyond the hillside ahead. Caroline silently calculated the distance from Mirror Lake to the manor, and it would only take about twenty minutes to ride a horse, but it took her about an hour and a half to get there; If the Goethe family hadn't been too stupid, they would have known everything that was going on in the manor by now, and the Mirror Lake should be ready to welcome them. Carolan looked back at Sa'an as if she had just remembered Sa'an in the team at this time, and after seeing Sa'an notice her turning back, she smiled at him, regardless of Sa'an's frightened look by her smile. Caroline turned her head back and flicked her horsewhip confidently, and rode her horse towards Mirror Lake.

Two rivers that meandered from the mountains in the distance met on the plain and rushed to the north, leaving a pearl-like mirror lake on the plain. The perennial alluvial water of the river has created fertile land near the lake, and the lake itself is rich in fish, so it is no wonder that the Goethe family teamed up with Saan to steal the land.

Looking at the Mirror Lake from the angle of Carolan standing on the hillside, the whole Mirror Lake looks like the purest sapphire under the sunlight, which makes Carolan, who is accustomed to seeing natural scenery after crossing, also feel a little amazing. But Caroline's good mood vanished when she saw the jagged fence on the shore of Mirror Lake leaning against her side.

"Let's go, let's see where the thieves dare to steal the land that belongs to me." With that, Caroline rushed down the hill first. Then Heinrich let out a long howl and followed closely with a large army. At this time, on the opposite bank of Carolan and them, there was also a group of people rushing over, but when they saw such a dense group of cavalry on Carolan's side, there seemed to be some commotion, but soon quieted down under the leadership of a man who seemed to be of a high position, and then they continued to approach Caroline and them.

Ignoring the team on the other side, Caroline frowned at what the shore of the lake said was a fence rather than a stake, and then turned back to Saan and beckoned to Sa'an to come to him. Sa'an was almost angry when he looked at Carolan's gesture, since his sister became Otto's mistress, who dared to ignore him so much! Originally, I also wanted to learn from Caroline, but in front of Sa'an, who didn't see this gesture, suddenly felt someone push hard behind his back, and looked back angrily to see who was so bold to move his hands and feet to himself, and when Sa'an saw the eyes of the person behind him clearly, it was like someone had been split on his head and splashed a bucket of ice water on his face, and he immediately calmed down. He immediately understood his situation: if he didn't know what to do, these madmen would never mind giving themselves a little bitterness.

So Sa'an could only endure the anger that was about to explode and came to Carolan's side and asked, "Young Master Carolan, what are your orders?" While resisting the urge to cut Carolan with a thousand knives, and at the same time giving Carolan a smiling face, the feeling of grievance in Sa'an was about to burst.

"I remember that as long as I don't admit it, then the land purchase agreement will not be effective, right?" Carolan stared playfully at Saan's face and asked such a question.

"That's true in theory, but it can also damage your reputation; Moreover... Saan realized that there must be something wrong with Carolan's question, so he replied cautiously in ambiguous words. But before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Caroline.

"Then I haven't recognized this agreement yet, have I?" Carolan ignored Saan, who blushed from being interrupted by herself, and continued to herself.

"Theoretically, yes, but..." Saan seemed to realize what Caroline was going to do, but he still tried to fool Caroline with his last bit of strength, and at the same time he tried to straighten up and look to the north, and he also noticed that the situation was not good, and the Goethe family was rushing forward, hoping that they would arrive quickly.

However, it was clear that Saan's efforts had been in vain, as he was interrupted by Carolan again.

"That's good! Without admitting it, the Goethes took the liberty of building a fence on land that is still mine! What kind of behavior is that! Carolan's tone changed from her usual cheerfulness to a little eerie.

"This,,, this," Saan couldn't answer, because he knew that whatever he answered, Caroline would do what she wanted. But fortunately, this time, someone answered the question for him.

"This is a provocation! It's an invasion! As Sa'an hesitated, a voice exploded. Heinrich's voice went blank in response to Caroline's question. "It's over, this group is crazy." Sa'an, who had known that the situation was out of control, didn't expect that the Klose family would play so big this time, did they want to start a war with the Goethe family. If the two of them went to war because of themselves, not to mention whether the Goethe family and the Klose family, who were bound to suffer heavy losses, would let him go, Penny, who knew everything, would not be able to spare herself. At this moment, Sa'an felt that he was going crazy, didn't he just want to scare that kid Carolan and blackmail him by the way, how did it develop like this.

Of course, it is possible that all this is a misunderstanding; But Sir Saan, with your permission, the Goethes have built these fences. Now will you help me unplug them? Sa'an felt as if he had been suddenly pulled back from hell by Caroline, and when he heard that Caroline seemed to be relieved, he nodded quickly, and shouted to his two younger brothers to destroy the stakes.

"Robert, go help them, these eyesores are annoying to look at." Carolan glanced at the hard-working Sa'an, and then turned back and told Robert to help them, she was just here to beat Sa'an, not to make Sa'an a coolie. And the object used to knock Sa'an, isn't it sent to the door in a hurry? Caroline looked at the Goethe family who had almost come to her neighborhood and showed a sly smile, but Carolan, who was all focused on the Goethe family's centaurs, did not notice that Heinrich, who was standing behind him, also showed a hidden and terrifying smile to the Goethe family who was approaching quickly, and anyone who saw this smile clearly could smell a strong smell of blood.
