Arold rode into Mecklenburg on horseback and held high, the courtiers in the castle were lined up, Arrod's family coat of arms was hung on both sides of the street, maidens threw flower petals at the heroes with flower baskets in their hands, and squires in full costume took up trumpets and blew the horns of victory.

"Congratulations on your triumphant return." Dylan. Matt, with the help of his servants, stepped forward, and during Arold's absence, the shrewd hunchback kept Mecklenburg in good order, and the crowd gradually moved from initial contempt to fear.

"Sovereign of Mecklenburg, our duke, may God bless you forever~~~." The people in the castle sang praises, and Arold dismounted to the sound of praise, and he looked around, his brow furrowed slightly.

"Where's my wife?" Arrod looked at Dylan beside him. Matt asked.

"Princess Josie is not feeling well and is resting in her bedroom." Dylan. Matt hurriedly said to Arrod.

"Really? I'll take a look. Arold hurriedly threw the reins of the horse to the horse boy, and strode into the main tower of Mecklenburg, where he missed his wife and son all the time, and heard the news as soon as he stepped into Mecklenburg, which made him want to see Princess Josie.

"Lord Duke, Lord Duke." Dylan. Matt staggered to catch up, but his physical limitations couldn't keep up with the flying Arrod.

"Miya-sama." Dylan. Matt's servant hurriedly ran over, crouched down and put the courtier on his shoulder, and then caught up with Arrod.

Arold soon came to his bedroom with the princess, but when he pushed the door, it was empty, which made him feel very strange, if Princess Josie was sick, shouldn't she stay in the bedroom to rest? Just as he was puzzled, he saw a maid approaching. Arold stopped the maid.

"What about my wife, Princess Josie?" Arold asked,

"Her Royal Highness the Princess is in the courtyard, playing with the children." As soon as the maid looked up and saw the dusty Arrod, she hurriedly curtsied to the duke and bowed.

"Courtyard?" Arold was surprised. If Princess Josie wasn't sick, why lie to herself, he believed Dylan. Matt wouldn't cheat himself on this.

The courtyard of Mecklenburg was tended by Princess Josie herself, planted with a variety of exotic flowers and fruits, a regular and symmetrical gazebo, and a cloister flower bed, and Arold admired Princess Josie's artistic accomplishments, and even approved a special sum of money for the princess to renovate the main tower.

Arold walked into the courtyard. Princess Josie was seen sitting in the gazebo, the nanny holding Arrod's son William, and Shirley standing beside Princess Josie as if she was advising something.

"Oh, Lord Duke." The nanny coaxed William, who was waving his little fist, and when she turned around, she saw Arrod standing in the courtyard, and hurriedly bowed to Arrode, a move that immediately attracted Miss Shirley's attention.

"Lord Duke, welcome back." Miss Shirley wears a long white dress. It looks like an elegant white lily on the surface of a lake. Arold nodded at him, and Princess Josie was dressed in a green wool dress. Her beautiful blonde hair was braided into tiny braids, but she had her back to Arold.

"Oh, let me see my little prince." Arold walked up to the nanny, smiled and reached out to hug his son, his strong arms around the soft little one, and the fatherly side of his heart was completely softened. The exhaustion of the body seemed to be healed in an instant.

"Look, how happy Lord William is!" Miss Shirley smiled too, and stood beside Arrod, looking at little William dancing and saying.

"When I wasn't there, I worked hard for you." Arrod kissed her son's face. The whisker completely angered the little guy, and he opened his mouth and cried loudly.

"Let me come, you and Her Royal Highness the princess haven't seen each other for a long time, and you should have a lot to say." Miss Shirley took little William intimately, and the strange little guy immediately stopped crying, obediently lay on Miss Shirley's shoulder, clenched his little fist and opened his eyes wide, and looked at Arold curiously.

"Ah, lo and behold, you're almost his second mother." Arrod shook his head and said helplessly and happily.

"We're going to quit first." Miss Shirley exits the gazebo with the nanny, and only Arold and Princess Josie are left in the gazebo.

"My baby, I'm back." Arrod looked at the princess's graceful back affectionately, and said loudly with open arms, but Princess Josie remained indifferent.

Arold's brows wrinkled slightly, and the enthusiasm in his heart retreated a little, at this time, Princess Josie's shoulders trembled slightly, and accompanied by the sound of crying, Arold hurriedly half-squatted down and pulled his wife over, only to see that the beautiful princess's eyes were swollen like peaches, and the tears on her face had not had time to wipe away.

"What's going on?" Arold asked, surprised.

"Is my brother dead?" Princess Josie asked Arrod with convulsions and tears.

"You know all this?" Arrod's face changed slightly, originally he wanted to hide it for a while, but he didn't expect Princess Josie to know so quickly.

"Yes, my poor brother, why, why did such a good man as he die a miserable death?" Princess Josie cried bitterly and lay on Arrod's shoulder, and the tears quickly wet Arrod's shoulder, and Arold just patted her back to soothe.

"It's complicated, but trust me, I'll get justice for the Duke." Arold only had to comfort Princess Josie over and over again, and even felt a little guilty in his heart, after all, Duke Mason died at the hands of his men.

"I believe you, Arrod, please avenge my brother, whoever he is will have to pay the price." Princess Josie's little face flushed, and she gritted her silver teeth and clenched her fists and swore by gritting her silver teeth.

"That's right, that's right." Arold promised with some weakness.

"Arold." Princess Josie suddenly looked at Arrod, and said to him with her lips.

"Huh?"

"Actually, I didn't mean not to greet you, it's just that I look so ugly, I really don't want to be seen by you." Princess Josie said to Arold a little shyly, although the two gave birth to little William, but it seems that they were in love yesterday.

"No, my princess is the most beautiful." Arrod said dotingly pinching Princess Josie's chin.

"Then, kiss me." Princess Josie blushed, closed her eyes, pursed her lips, and said to Arrod.

Outside the gazebo, a canary flew to the branch, its paws clinging to the branch, the branch swayed above the gazebo, and through the hollowed-out gazebo window, a burst of joyful gasps came out, and the canary turned its little head curiously, blinking its dark eyes and staring downward.
