"Sister, are we just waiting and doing nothing?"

"Yes."

"The rule of the Barov family is shaky, and you don't want to regain your laurels?"

"The queen's crown shines because of the king, who do you want me to marry?"

"No, I mean ......"

"It's not interesting."

"Uh, that's not interesting?"

Queen Sasha and her sister, who was twenty years her junior, chatted casually in their bedchamber on not-so-casual topics.

"I've given enough for the sake of the family, so stop talking about the interests of the family in front of me, Arya."

When a person reaches middle age, even if she is well-maintained, the corners of Sasha's eyes are still wrinkled. She likes her sister, but she hates the way the family is raised.

So the smile on Sasha's lips and the exhaustion in the corners of her eyes pierced Arya's immature self-esteem.

"But sister, everything we have comes from the family, not the protection of the family, we will be taken away from everything, and you will have nothing."

Arya retorted unconvinced.

"Take everything from me, who? Father, or Barov? ”

"The king of Alterac is a war maniac! He will take everything, he will ruin everything! ”

"Carlos is a paladin."

"Total War****** The war had been won, but the serfs and tenant farmers were still under the centralized control of the royal family, and the nobles were starving because the fields were uncultivated, and the royal family made a lot of money. The Barov family wants one family, one country! We're all going to starve to death in the end! ”

Arya said with some indignation.

"Who told you these words!"

Sasha left the couch and sat upright, frowning and staring at her sister with sharp eyes that were different from the lazy posture just now.

"My father and my brothers had a quiet meeting, and I heard it."

Arya was stared at uncomfortably by her sister's oppressive eyes, and her tone weakened, and she explained in a low voice.

"Did you tell anyone else?"

Sasha asked nervously.

"I'm not stupid......"

Arya muttered discontentedly.

"Alya. Do you know why I am willing to pay you two thousand gold coins to buy you a dragon's tooth dagger, but I am not willing to lend my father a copper coin? ”

Sasha took two deep breaths, suppressed her excitement, slowed down her voice and spoke slowly.

Arya shook her head.

"Because you will miss my good, and Father will only expect to take more from me."

"But! But! But ......"

Despite his outstanding talent, he became a well-known assassin in the underworld at a young age. Alya's life experience is insufficient, and she wants to refute her sister's words, but she can only say a but.

"The rule of the Barov family is shaky? Who told you this. More than 100,000 troops are loyal to the king, countless people praise the benevolence of the royal family, the princess of the kingdom of Lordaeron will be our new queen, but you tell me that Barov's dynasty is about to collapse, Arya, it's not funny. ”

Sasha reached out and touched her sister's head.

"But everybody was saying that the king was too good to the untouchables. It's not right even better than to the nobility. ”

Arya remained stubborn and stubborn.

"That's right, my sister."

Sasha suddenly felt tired.

"The farmer should plow the land, the hunter should hunt, let the noble continue to be noble, and let the people work for the old age."

After Arya finished speaking, she added.

"Father said so."

"Noble? Before I married Aiden, we. Our family, our family. It's nothing more than a hillbilly family in the Sofia Highlands. Except for being pretty, your sister and I are useless at all. Noble? What is Noble? Gorgeous clothes and haughty looks? ”

Sasha didn't know who she was talking to, and her tone was extremely sarcastic.

"Then what are you going to do, everyone is talking in private, if the king doesn't end the war, everyone will have to pay taxes."

"Me? What can I do. I am now the Countess of Eribden, and I can spend my old age in this palace, and I will have nothing to do, and I will have an income of fourteen thousand gold coins a year. I don't have to do anything. ”

"But before, half of this kingdom belonged to you."

Arya looked very aggrieved. I feel aggrieved for my sister.

"This kingdom has never belonged to me, no one is born a slave, and no one wants to be someone else's slave all the time. Arya, your thoughts are dangerous. ”

"Well, actually, I don't know, I just think my father is right."

"Okay, my sister doesn't want to reprimand you, I just want you to see more and listen more, only the truth that you understand and come up with is your own truth."

Feeling that there would be an argument if we continued to talk, Sasha decisively stopped the conversation.

After chatting with my sister for a while about other, less dull topics, I called the guards and sent my sister out of the palace.

At this moment, the Alterac Palace is actually in a very strange state.

The king has been leading troops all the year round, and the new queen is vacant, and the most powerful person in the palace is actually the regent Grand Duke Alex. Barov and Sasha, the first queen. Although Jennis. Barov, with his son and daughter, now live in the city of Alterac, but they live in their own villa rather than in the royal palace.

Sasha has looked down on the grievances of the past, and she doesn't want to meet with Jennis, and now she lives in the palaces that Carlos promised her, and lives an almost old age.

However, Sasha's sensitive identity and background make her never really escape the whirlpool of politics. Sasha understands her sister, fists and daggers are far more slippery than brains. Most of what she said to herself today was said to herself through her mouth, and how much of the eavesdropping she thought she was overheard was deliberately let her hear.

"A bunch of idiots."

Sasha cursed and then asked the attendant to go to Alex. The office of the Grand Duke of Barov Regent summoned him that he wanted to have dinner with the Grand Duke Regent.

Sasha is also helpless and distressed about the current situation, the family that should have been her backer has become a plotter with ulterior motives for herself, and in the eyes of outsiders, the Barov father and son have become their own life talismans.

In front of the dresser, Sasha spent a whole afternoon tidying up her face, changing into clothes that best matched Alex's aesthetics, and quietly waiting for her childhood friend to arrive.

However, as night approached, the chamberlain brought the news that the Grand Duke Regent had failed his appointment.

"What's the reason, Alex is a trustworthy man, what's going on?"

Sasha asked dignifiedly.

"Jennis. Duchess Barov is pregnant. ”

The attendant said with an embarrassed face.

"Heh, hah."

Sasha sighed meaninglessly. (To be continued.) )
