Chapter 50: Internal and External Troubles (I)
The baroness watched from behind the butler, and everything in front of her came into her sight without reservation.
"Butler!" The baroness shouted behind the butler.
The butler sneered, and looked back to see the Baroness, not knowing how long he had been standing there. The butler stepped forward and said, "Madam, I suspect..."
Before the butler could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by the baroness. "Butler, I believe in you, you are doing all this right. However, have you ever considered that now that the Baronial Castle is completely closed, what kind of attitude should we have towards the people in the castle? Ambiguity is the easiest thing to do. ”
The butler knew what the Baroness meant, twenty years ago, not long after the Baroness joined the Aberon family, she had done an earth-shattering thing for the Baron. That was the Downton Abbey incident.
It was at that time that Baron Alberton finally made his rise, and the number of knights under his command broke through to eleven, and the scale of the knight domain also increased to three villages.
However, it was at that time that the Baroness's health began to deteriorate. At that time, Miss Louise had just been weaned.
The butler waited quietly, waited. Waiting for the Baroness's order.
After a long time, the Baroness spoke, "Well, let the knights be summoned and say that Lord Deli has returned triumphantly, and I hope they will come to the Baronial Castle to congratulate them, and tell them to wear a ceremonial garment, not a knight's suit, and tonight, only Lord Deli and the knights who are going out are allowed to pass the knight's costume." ”
The baroness's strategy instantly made the butler's eyes light up, and he said, "The baroness is so calculating, the lady is so ......" At this time, the butler suddenly realized the homonym that appeared in this sentence, and the butler shuddered for a moment, and went down to carry out the order.
When she reached middle age, the baroness's face turned slightly red, however, thinking of Louise, who was still in the room, she shook her head and left the hall.
Baronial Castle, in the Baronial Chambers.
The doctor has been observing for a while, and his face is solemn, "Qi and blood attack the heart, and I need to recuperate." After the doctor finished speaking, the soldier on the side directly grabbed the doctor's collar and dragged him to the ground.
"Recuperation? Rest a P, you quack, don't you know what this sentence represents? If you don't have the ability to say it, we can ask someone else. ”
"That's enough, put him down." The baroness glared at the soldier and said.
Obviously, the doctor in front of him thinks that Baron Albert has no medicine to cure, and if he wakes up, then he should die, and if he can't wake up, then he will wait to die.
The ancients have always been so subtle when they spoke.
It was already the third doctor, and they all left in disgrace. It is also the baroness who has a good personality, if it is replaced by someone else, she will cut it first, and then hang it on the city gate to warn the next batch of quacks.
Outside the door.
Louise gently pushed open the door, tears hanging in the corners of her eyes, and said softly to the baroness, "Mother, it's me who is not good, and I make my father angry again." ”
"No, my dear Louise. This has nothing to do with you. It's Viscount López who has come to invade us again. ”
"If it weren't for me, my father wouldn't have sent so many soldiers into the wasteland forest, and even if we had won this victory, we would have suffered heavy losses." Although Louise is not a general who is familiar with the art of war, she still understands this simple truth. Not to mention the fact that I had just heard them discussing in the corridor that Lord Deli had lost four hundred soldiers.
Although I don't know what kind of soldiers these four hundred people are, the sudden reduction of the population of four hundred is also a very serious matter for the Baron Castle.
"Alright, alright, my Louise, the most important thing for you right now is to protect your body." The Baroness comforted.
"Take care of your body? Give birth to that damn thief? ”
The scene was embarrassing for a while......
……………………………
At night, two knights rode towards the Baron's castle on horseback, dressed in ordinary evening dresses, with only one attendant behind them, carrying lanterns and a beautiful sword.
This kind of long sword is very common, hormones are used to decorate things of aristocratic temperament, let alone kill enemies, he doesn't even have a blade, and he doesn't need to maintain it often, because he is not iron at all.
The knight wandered in the direction of the horses and came to the castle of the Barons. The retinue behind him reported the knight's name and the family coat of arms, and then entered.
Sure enough, the baroness guessed right.
The knights in Baron Ebelon's castle rebelled.
At the head was the knight of Eward, the knight who had no discipline, and the Eward, who trained cavalry for thieves.
Eward and his two knights and knights began to recruit militia in the knights' realm, intending to besiege the Baronial Castle before the arrival of Viscount López.
Early the next morning. Eward began to lead his militia towards the Baronial Castle.
One time of disappearance, after the Baroness had received news confirming Edward's mutiny, they began to discuss how to bring Lord Deley's army back.
"Butler, have you decided?" The baroness asked again to the butler beside her.
"Yes, ma'am, for the sake of the future of the Barons' Castle, I think this is the best place for me." The key said firmly.
"Well, before you leave, I'll give you the order. The second steward of the Baron's Castle - Lihod. ”
After hearing this, the housekeeper smiled with satisfaction, looked at the little son behind him, nodded, and the tears in the corners of his eyes slowly melted.
Lihod is the son of a butler, who has also traveled to the mainland and is an excellent knight servant. Later, due to injury, he gave up this great career and became the butler of Baron Albert's house.
The butler put on his old armor, which had begun to rust, but he didn't care, maybe this was the last time he put it on.
Half an hour later, the butler appeared at the gate of the castle, followed by two servants. The butler said to the servant behind him, "Don't worry, the baroness will take care of our family." Your children will be excellent guardian knights of the Baron's Castle in the future. ”
The heavy gate slowly opened, and out came three heavily armed cavalrymen, who spread the reins in their hands and pointed their spears in their right hands......
"Driving ......"
The horses rushed out of the castle, crossed the drawbridge that had just been lowered, and then ran in the direction of the wasteland forest.
In the distance, a black patch had begun to appear in the sky, it was the militia recruited by Knight Edward and others, they were the rebels of Baron Alberton's castle.
From afar, I saw the castle door wide open. At first Eward was happy, because they thought that the undefended Baron's Castle had not yet received any information.
However......
The three horses galloped across the steppe. It was like a death knell that woke up Eward.
"No... No, no...... Stop, stop! ”
