Chapter 5: The Conspiracy is Ongoing!
Manuel screamed angrily to startle the nun who was about to do it, and Abbot Maria and a Templar followed him into the backyard.
Seeing the dean come in, Joanna and the nuns beside her quickly stopped and saluted Mary respectfully, "I've seen the dean's mother."
Ignoring Joanna and the others, Maria pointed to Victoria and Elizabeth, who had fallen to the ground, and said, "Lord Duke, this is Victoria, and her sister Elizabeth is beside her."
Manuel nodded, and Maria came to Victoria, helped her up, and said, "Victoria, this Duke needs you and your sister to take a trip, so you can go with it."
"Sister!"
Victoria looked at Elizabeth's worried eyes, smiled and shook her head.
Instead of paying attention to the people around her, she went to the pool. Pound a handful of water with both hands, gently wash off the stains on your face, and then simply smooth the smooth blonde hair.
Joanna saw that Victoria was so disrespectful in front of the dean, and just wanted to open her mouth to scold, but when she saw the stern eyes of the dean Maria, she could only silently retreat.
When everything was done, Victoria took Elizabeth's hand and said to Dean Mary, "Then I will go, Dean."
Dean Mary nodded and said, "Go, my child."
Victoria took Elizabeth and said to Manuel, "Lord Duke, please lead the way."
Manuel watched Victoria's performance and couldn't help but admire Victoria's calmness in his heart. He immediately rushed back with Victoria and Elizabeth.
Victoria sat in the carriage and held Elizabeth's hand in her hands. Feeling Elizabeth's hand trembling a little, Victoria patted her lightly and said, "Elizabeth, don't worry."
Elizabeth looked at Victoria and said worriedly, "Sister, what's going on?" We'll be fine. ”
Victoria smiled at Elizabeth and said, "My silly sister, there's a sister here." Sister will protect you. ”
Although Elizabeth was comforted by Victoria, she couldn't help but say, "Sister, or let's get out of here."
Victoria looked at Elizabeth's beautiful face and said with some sadness: "Where can we go when we leave here?"
Elizabeth saw the change in her sister. The death of their father hit both of them very hard, which meant that they lost their status all at once. Elizabeth knew very well that their sisters' beauty was not a good day to wait for them once they lost the protection of power.
And Victoria is a good example, now Victoria has to be bullied by nuns every day, such a bloody real world suddenly unfolded in front of Elizabeth's eyes, and Elizabeth couldn't sleep every night.
Although Victoria still maintains her perseverance, as her own sister and Victoria's closest person, Elizabeth has long noticed a trace of tiredness in Victoria's eyes.
"Otherwise, let's go find the eldest sister." Elizabeth spoke suddenly.
"Nonsense! Do you want us to kill her!" Victoria listened to Elizabeth's words and scolded sharply.
Victoria gently hugged Elizabeth in her arms and slowly caressed Elizabeth's. "It's going to get better soon, soon."
Just as Manuel was on his way to Lower Lorraine to pick up Victoria. Eren turned the conversation to Sandra's body.
"Sandra, I didn't expect your church to slander a dignified duke. Do you really think that my Anmuxi Kingdom is easy to bully?"
Allen's words are very right, no matter whether Allen has made a deal with the church or not, how can the church stand up so clearly and insult An Muxi's dignity.
The people on Ambrosi's side stared at Sandra with unkind eyes.
Sandra was shocked, damn it. I didn't expect Alan to drag the church into the water. But Sandra is not worried, anyway, the relationship between the church and An Muxi is not good, if this time if he can cut off Allen's back road, he will not worry that Allen will not take the initiative to take refuge in the church.
Sandra's heart was smug, and a smile appeared on her face.
"The Duke can't help you if you get involved with our church at this time, and we have the evidence in this matter, so we can't fake it no matter how much the Duke quibbles." Sandra said dismissively.
However, Alan did not intend to push the church into the water, the church was already in the water, and there was no need for Alan to drag it at all, but to provoke the common hatred of the Anmuxi side to treat the church. Although he agreed not to be trusted by the church, if the church had spoken first, it would inevitably have focused on Allen.
This is a preconceived notion that puts Alan in a situation where he proves his innocence. And what Alan wants is to turn his self-proof of innocence into a church proof that he has colluded with Allen. In this way, the defendant becomes the church and Alan.
This is a negotiation technique. After all, the first impression is great, and if Alan doesn't get rid of this bad influence, it will be difficult to gain the trust of others. Judging from the expressions of An Muxi's side, Allen's effect has also been achieved.
Duke Bashir and Duke Lawrence are no longer thinking about what agreement Allen has reached with the church, but what kind of conspiracy the church has. The mastermind has been transferred from Allen to the church.
On the other hand, once Alan proves his innocence, it means that the church's conspiracy has risen to the level of attacking the duke of a country, and Bashir and Lawrence are even more wary of the church.
Manuel didn't keep Alan and his party waiting, but he returned with Victoria in half an hour.
Victoria and Elizabeth quickly attracted everyone's attention as soon as they appeared.
Sandra was the first to speak, "Victoria, tell us. What did you talk to Ouranos about in the first place? Didn't you give a deposit of 50,000 gold coins to Ouranos?"
Ignoring Sandra's actions, Alan slowly walked up to Victoria. After a few days of not seeing, Victoria gave Alan the feeling of being much more tired. Alan took a closer look and noticed that Victoria's clothes were wrinkled and stained in many places on her lower body. Alan knew in an instant that Victoria wasn't having a good time these days.
Thinking of this, Alan saluted, "Hello Miss Victoria, Miss Elizabeth. I haven't seen you for many days, whether you are healthy. The Duke of Lorraine deeply regrets the matter, and asks the two young ladies to mourn. ”
Victoria immediately pulled Elizabeth to salute Allen and said, "I'm tired of the Duke's concern, we will take care of ourselves."
Elizabeth was not as calm as Victoria. In Elizabeth's impression, Alan has always been the upright nobleman who helped her. So when she saw Allen, Hyun said with tears in her eyes: "Lord Duke, please help us." My sister was treated unjustly in the monastery and asked the Duke to help us. ”
Alan was stunned when he heard Elizabeth's words and glanced at Victoria. However, Victoria still showed her haughty posture, and did not show the slightest weakness. What a proud woman.
Alan smiled at Elizabeth and said, "Miss Elizabeth, please trust your sister, these are just minor problems, she will be fine soon."
"Humph!" The conversation between Ellen and Elizabeth is interrupted by Sandra, who is already impatient. "I think let's get down to business first." Sandra watched the conversation between Alan and Victoria, and her heart suddenly became uneasy. How do they look so familiar? Sandra was puzzled.
