When Sir Able turned around, he saw his sister Josie wearing a golden tiara, her long blond hair, a tight-fitting pale green robe with long, narrow sleeves, and a loose white robe with shorter sleeves than the tunic over her. The long neckline is wider, and the neckline and sleeves can be trimmed with various gold trims. She stood in the cloister with a maid and seemed to be waiting for Sir Ebel, and Sir Abel looked at his sister, but his brow furrowed slightly, this trouble-loving little sister actually left the castle without permission last time, pretending to be a squire, and also pretending to be his own order to go to Baron Wendell's territory, but was attacked by the border mob and his life was seriously threatened, Sir Able thought to himself that if she encountered any danger, I really don't know how to explain to his father, Duke Mason, Thankfully, she came back safely, but when she returned to the castle, Sir Able locked Josie in confinement, locked her in the attic of the tower, and recently let her out when he saw that she was honest.

"I'm too busy right now to pay attention to you Josie." Sir Able was too busy to divide himself into three parts, and a group of peasants and townspeople were waiting to be received by him, Duke Mason was good at fighting for power but had little interest in his own territory, and Sir Able had to do everything himself.

"Oh, my brother, can't you just take a little more time out of your busy schedule?" Josie hurriedly blocked Sir Able's way, she knew that Able would not be angry with her for too long, but when she was locked in the attic of the tower, the longing for Arold tormented her all the time, and Josie was eager to know the news of Arrod.

"Okay. Tell us what you want to do. "Sir Abel wore fine linen with a wide purple sash around his waist, which he used to tie his clothes and wear his sword. Sir Able looked helplessly at his sister, who was able to handle the myriad affairs of state with ease, but could not do anything about his dearest sister, so he handed over the papers in his hand to his retinue, and let them take them to his room first, and then deal with these trivial financial problems himself.

"Uh, do you know anything about that person?" Josie inquired of Sir Able with a look of shyness and anxiety, and asked a noble princess to inquire about a man. It's somewhat embarrassing. But Josie was about to go crazy in the attic of the tower, and she didn't know what she would do if she didn't get word of Arrod.

"Just ask this?" Sir Able knew that you were going to ask about it, and he had to tell Josie some of the news he had heard. Scattered news was in Josie's ears. How much will be transformed into Arrod's heroic deeds by the girl. This made her even more.

"So now that he's gone to the territory of the infidels, is he going to conquer the infidels?"

"It's hard to say, the West Slavs are also a fierce people. If it were me, I wouldn't have sent troops to Mecklenburg County so recklessly, but at least I should have received my father's help. Sir Abel shrugged his shoulders, and even though he had seen Arold's whimsy, he was still concerned about Arold's rash attack on Mecklenburgshire.

"I think he must be able to, you don't know how heroic he is, not to mention that his father won't help him at all." Josie's eyes almost twinkled with a star of worship, and the conquest of the pagans was the work of many great knights, and it was a story that could be recited into a poem by a bard for free.

"Hey, if nothing else, I'll go." Sir Able looked at Josie with an adoring face, and could do nothing about his sister, who loved to hear knightly stories, but he secretly made up his mind that he would make Josie look favorably before she would do anything out of the ordinary.

"Wait a minute, Brother Ebel, I have something else to say, Count Lauzitz seems to have made some moves in the town of Masonburg lately, do you know about it?" Although Josie is a princess who loves knightly stories, this does not mean that she is not at all vigilant, she has lived in the court since she was a child, she knows how terrible the fanatical pursuit of power is, so she does not trust Count Lauzitz as much as her father, Duke Mason.

The ladies of the court were usually managed by Josie, many of whom were inextricably linked to the courtiers, and some were also the secret lovers of the courtiers, and it was easy for them to obtain information from the pillow, so the ladies in the court were her eyes and ears, and they often got together to talk about the secrets of the nobles, and Josie did not hesitate to mingle with them, the most hidden of these secrets was the ambition of Count Lauzitz.

"I know a little bit, my father appointed him as the military governor, and managing the security of the territory should be a matter of his purview." Sir Abel is not at all wary of Count Lautz, but he believes that as long as Duke Mason is alive, Count Lausitz will not dare to covet his inheritance, and at the same time, it is a kind of confidence in his own power, not to mention that he is the legitimate heir of Duke Mason, and no nobleman will easily support usurper.

"But I always feel that Count Lautz's men have been coming and going a lot lately." Josie frowned, showed a puzzled expression, and her fingers propped up her chin, as if she was thinking about it, and Sir Able felt a little amused when he saw it, and he did not understand that the princess, who had been immersed in the story of knighthood a moment ago, had now become like a worried politician.

"You have too much heart, don't worry, I have Shi Dan and other knights of the Inner Palace, and my father's army is also stationed here, who dares to do anything?" Sir Able waved his hand and pressed it against Josie's little head, reassuring her that it was perhaps a common problem for children born in the court, who always lacked the necessary sense of security.

"But Knight Stan is only responsible for your safety, and nothing else can be taken care of." Josie shook her head and got rid of Sir Ebel's hand, she was no longer a child, and soon there would be a coming-of-age ceremony, and she would be able to talk about marriage strictly speaking.

"Oh, what do you suggest? Wouldn't it be better to nominate yourself and dress up as my squire again? Sir Able thought that Josie's little head was thinking of some crooked idea, and he was a little impatient to get rid of his sister's entanglement, and go back to deal with the old sesame rotten grain in the principality.

"Of course not, I think you should gather some loyal servants to help you and enrich your own court members." Josie felt that Abel would have to become Duke of Mason sooner or later, so it was better to establish his own team of court ministers as soon as possible, so that he could do the job at hand better and familiarize his subordinates with administrative management.

"Gather the courtiers?" Sir Able could vaguely understand Josie's thoughts, the Earl of Raozitz had his own fief early, so he had a team of court courtiers to help him manage the territory while his county was established, these people helped and expanded the influence of the Earl of Lauzitz in the Duchy of Mason, but as the first heir of the Duke of Mason, no one could share the responsibility for him, and now that Abel had obtained the important position of the Duchy's financial manager in front of the Duke of Mason, then he should indeed have some of his own deputies, But who to invite, he hasn't decided yet.

"I think the Wendell family should be a good choice." Seeing that Sir Able was lost in thought, Josie knew that her brother had been persuaded by herself, and she cautiously suggested to Sir Ebel.

"The Wendell family?" Sir Able thought about it, and felt that Josie's words also made some sense, the people of the Wendell family had sworn allegiance to him very early, and fought side by side in the battle with the Duke of Saxony, Baron Wendell's calm and spicy, Sir Yves's bravery, and Arold's resourcefulness, all of which were rare talents, if they could help themselves, the Earl of Lauzitz would definitely not dare to act rashly, but Josie suggested that the Wendell family should be recruited into his court, but with his own careful thoughts, Sir Able was amused, and did not pierce Josie.

"Oh my God, what is that?" Just as Sir Able was talking to Josie, suddenly the sky of the castle darkened, it was clear that it was daytime but it suddenly became like they were in the dark night, when the people in the castle looked up, they saw that the sun in the sky was gradually swallowed up by a black thing, the sun that was originally bright and dared not look at it directly, but now it became weak, only a red outline remained, and the people on the ground looked like the sun was gradually disappearing, and the darkness was about to rule the earth forever, The people of the Middle Ages had long been under the influence of Catholicism, and according to the Bible, it was like the wrath of God, a harbinger of the coming of the end, and suddenly the bells in the castle were runged, and many people knelt down to pray, praying that God would stop this terrible act and return the light to the people on earth, and the priests in the church began to celebrate various masses.

"A bad omen, a bad omen." Even the nobles were terrified, shaking like a sieve, and even the most unbelievers were worried about their souls.

"Abel?" Josie looked at the darkness in this place, looked at Sir Able beside him, and suddenly had a sense of foreboding in her heart, she hugged Sir Ebel's waist and buried her little head in her brother's arms, and Sir Abel thought that his sister was frightened by this strange sight, he hurriedly stepped forward and hugged Josie with his strong arms, looked up at the vision in the sky, and did not understand what God was expressing to mankind?
