Chapter 319: Ellie's Birthday Third-line strategy
On April 1st, the weather was fine.
This year's weather has been a bit unusual, with a huge snowstorm that started last year and continues this year, then a long spring rain, and just as people are getting ready for the rainy season, the weather is sunny again. Vaguely, there is even a bit of summer meaning.
Not only Desmond, but in fact, the entire empire was affected. The long winter, the short rainy season, and the steeply rising temperatures all worry the experienced farmers. According to this agricultural productivity, which is still stuck in the era of watching the sky and eating, if you are not careful, you will reduce the output or even lose the harvest.
But the aristocratic lords obviously don't care about this. When the time comes, it will always be these civilians who will suffer.
Compared with the lowly commoners, the nobles also have the worries of the nobles, seeing that His Majesty the Emperor is about to die, and the border is full of storms. But the future is still young, and the strange celestial phenomena now always make some people's hearts flutter.
It's just that it's too early to say that.
And compared to the increasingly treacherous imperial capital, the small county in the countryside is still so leisurely. Thanks to the Imperial fleet, although they were defeated, the Norman pirates were unable to cross the Channel to plunder for a while. β‘β and the Earl's drastic reduction in taxes in the realm, coupled with the mana of a certain priest, the peasants' days were unexpectedly better.
It's not scary to be in a desperate situation, it's scary to give up hope of the last struggle.
Today, Desmond seemed to be exceptionally happy, and even the air was filled with joy. The reason is simple, Fanzhuo's eldest daughter is celebrating her tenth birthday today - although there is nothing of value around. But the people still sent their blessings to their little princess. Flowers from all over the territory, carrying the blessings of the people. Half of the halls of the castle are stuffed.
Although there are some regrets, Fan Zhuo has never had a man. But when the eldest lady reaches the age of ten, it is always a happy thing. In this era, the medical conditions were poor, and even the heirs of the nobles were half-dead. And children who can survive until the age of 10 are generally very healthy.
I hope that Van Zhuo will be able to rule this land full of sorrow forever as he is now. After tasting the sweetness of this moment, the people never wanted to go back to the desperate times of the past.
Unbeknownst to the lords, however, the eldest lady did not hold her birthday party in the warm sunlight of the castle. On the contrary, Ellie chose the location of the meeting in the cold city of Dolan Gureg.
On the originally deserted Tirpitz. At this time, it was crowded with people from Desmond.
"Lijie, Lijie, come here!" Today's Ellie seems to be very happy, the little princess is wearing her favorite golden dress, shaking her fleshy paws to greet her best friend, "Lijie is so slow, hurry up~"
"Whew, here, Ellie."
The boyish girl was holding a large box containing the gifts she was about to give. Hearing her best friend's call, Lijie immediately accelerated. Laughing and running towards Ellie. I don't know what the box contains, but I need to use such a big box. However, although Lijie is a girl, after all, she has received professional knight training since she was a child, and her physique is no worse than that of boys of the same age. It's even excessive, so it's not a struggle.
But the box was big after all, blocking her view. Lijie was careless for a while. Didn't notice the feet. With a twist of her little feet, the girl who was running fast held the box. Fall to the side.
"Huh?!"
Just as the girl screamed and was about to fall to the ground. A familiar snort suddenly came to her ear.
"Blade of Light."
Originally, it was condensed with light and turned into a sharp blade to damage the opponent's magic, but in a certain half-hanging hand, it completely changed its appearance. The light condensed into a whip of light, one end of which landed in the hands of the caster, while the other ended like a spirit snake, accurately binding the girl's slender waist.
"Hmm."
With a gentle tug, Sinloth pulled the lithe girl into his arms. And only then did the big box fall to the ground.
"Lijie, be careful, don't run so fast."
"Ah, it's the headmaster......" Looking at the smile of the future lord who was close at hand, Lijie didn't know what she thought, and she didn't dare to look at Xinluo at all, "As a knight, I actually let the headmaster save me, woo......"
The children of the Sunday School were all from humble backgrounds, except for a few noble ladies. They know early on what they want. And Lijie's dream is even better known - to become a powerful and reliable knight like her father.
But it looks like the little knight still has a long way to go.
"Keep up the good work, Lijie."
Sinloth smiled and rubbed the girl's head, which had fallen into a state of self-loathing, and put her down. However, the girl's injuries seemed to be more serious than expected, and the girl took two steps, but stopped with a frown.
"Lijie, Lijie, what's wrong with you?"
At this time, Ellie, who was very slow to react, finally came back to her senses. The girl ran to her best friend in a hurry and began to check her injuries.
"It's alright, Ellie, just a little twisted...... Hiss, how could a knight be defeated by such a small difficulty! β
"But...... But it's all swollen......"
Lijie pushes her back to her feet, while Ellie tries to stop her. However, for Lijie, who has always been strong, it seems that the effect is not good. The daughter of the chief knight is good at everything, has great talents, and works very hard, never slacking off. And he is enthusiastic, and he can easily get along with other people, even in the subjects of the Sunday school.
The only downside is probably that it's a girl.
Regardless of Lijie's struggle, Xinlos grabbed Lijie's small waist and hugged her horizontally. And the other hand was not idle, and picked up the big box.
"Oh, Headmaster, let me down...... Lijie can. β
Until this time, Lijie was still trying to die. I don't know if it's angry or the first time I've had such close contact with an adult man of the opposite sex, and the girl's face is rarely flushed. It looks so cute.
"Lijie. Waldstein! β
"Yes!"
Looking at the little girl who was constantly struggling, Sinlos suddenly grimaced. whispered the full name of the little guy, and the little guy in his arms also subconsciously tensed his body. It seems to be a knight waiting for the monarch's orders.
The little guy's reaction was really funny, but Cynroth still forced a laugh and asked seriously: "Waldstein, let me ask you, should the knight strictly follow the orders of the feudal king?" β
"Yes, Headmaster." No matter what Sinloth thinks, Lijie looks very into the play. The girl puffed up her barren chest and said loudly, "Whatever the order, the knight should obey it unconditionally. With a sharp sword in hand. Maintain the majesty of the sovereign. β
is still young, how can there be such a knight, and there are still few knights who have escaped on the battlefield...... However, it's better not to break a girl's dream for the time being.
"Very well, Waldstein, it looks like you are young, but you already have a bit of your father's shadow." Sinloth first praised the girl slightly, and then said, "Then now I command." You want to stay in my arms all the time, absolutely not moving, can you do it? β
"Yes, Lord Fanzhuo!"
Lijie seemed to have received some sacred task. The girl, who was held in the Count's arms, completely gave up resistance, and she relaxed her body. He leaned his head against Sinloth's chest. The girl's ears were filled with the sound of the Count's powerful heartbeat. Lidje smelled the faint smell of grass in the Count's arms. Thinking back to the knowledge from the books she got from Ellie, the girl's delicate cheeks. Slowly it becomes the pretty pink thoroughly.
"Poof, hahahahaha, Lijie is so stupid......"
β¦β¦
When Sinloth took Lijie and his daughter aboard the Tirpitz, he realized that he was the last to arrive. The others were in the cabin, waiting for a long time.
"Ellie, it's so slow."
"Ellie, where did you just go?"
Ellie is a boisterous and friendly child, and as soon as she walks into the cabin, she receives countless complaints and greetings. Fan Zhuo's eldest daughter narrowed her eyes with a smile and greeted her friends.
"Hehe, because Lijie is very slow......"
While Ellie was chatting happily with her girlfriends, Sinlos didn't stop, she put Lijie into the girls' pile, and greeted Joachim, who was openly lazy on the side.
"Miss Jonta, please come and take a look, Lijie seems to have twisted her foot."
The female doctor, who was destined not to be lazy, reluctantly swallowed the food in her mouth and resigned herself to the Count's side.
"Take off your shoes and I'll take a look...... Well, it's nothing, just treat it a little bit......"
β¦β¦
Ellie's birthday has become the best excuse to rest, and the people who are busy on weekdays can finally put down their work for a while and breathe a sigh of relief. Except for those who had to lead the team on duty, everyone else was there. Even Hermint, who had been missing for many days, was shouting in the crowd at this time.
The originally deserted cabin became extremely lively at this time. And Tirbitz was obviously enjoying the atmosphere as well, happily holding the ship knife and slashing back and forth with the thunder......
Tirpitz, you stupid girl!
But fortunately, there were many masters in the cabin, and the two little girls didn't make a fuss, so they were separated by Arian Heard and Mariana. One of the two little girls ate a chestnut on the door of their heads, and under the vicious glare of Xinluos, the two aggrieved little guys did not make any more trouble.
Although the eyes they looked at each other were still not good, the relationship between the Deep Sea Fleet and the Ship Elves had always been like this, and Sinloth couldn't do it for a while. However, this time, Pyre followed Arian Hurd to England, and he should be able to stop for a while.
As for what to do in the future, let's talk about it later.
In addition to these familiar faces, this time there was also an old acquaintance from Dublin, Lady Rosa, who was still wearing the long flaming red dress, covering her face with a feather fan while ravaging her daughter's little face.
Poor Miss Christina was about to cry out of her grievances under her mother's obscenity. But no matter how Christina turned her friends and teachers into asking for help, the others pretended not to see it.
After all, their mother and daughter haven't seen each other for months, and it's normal for them to have some misconduct between words and deeds.
I don't know where Christina provoked her mother. It would be treated like this. However, out of the courtesy of his master, Sinlos nodded to the countess. And the elegant lady smiled and nodded in the same way, though she still did not let go of the claws on her daughter's face.
Lady Rosa's arrival was somewhat unexpected by Sinloth. But it makes sense. This simple witch would not leave Dublin because of such a trivial matter as her daughter's best friend's birthday. Now that she's here. Naturally, she has her reasons.
But today is the time to rejoice, and it is really not appropriate to speak of disgusting intrigues.
"Guys, please give way."
The maid and the housekeeper teamed up to bring a huge cake, and on the snow-white and lovely cake, Ellie's name was written with golden sweet honey.
Sinloth slammed a knife on Assasin's head, preventing the cats from rushing up and cutting the cake with the Burning World.
Born in a noble family, although he enjoys the right above everyone. But it also adds a lot of helplessness. Today is not only Ellie's birthday, but also a good time for everyone to be lazy and lazy. In fact, today is also a time of separation.
Glamorgan's plan had reached its most critical junctureβas the Earl, Sinloth had no idea what the bastard Hermint had been up to lately. But the power of the conspiracy to break through the sky and reclaim Glamorgan was enough to make Cynroth understand what was all about.
Helmint came back this time to celebrate the birthday of the eldest lady, but in fact, he came to ask for reinforcements. I don't know how he persuaded Andil that the magician was willing to help Hermint finish his hand.
Yes, Teo. According to Sinloth's thoughts, Helmint must have screwed things up. That's why I came to let my colleagues help.
Andiel is going to lead the team to Glamorgan, and Arian Heard is going to lead the team to England, and if you add to that the coming of Madame Rosa...... Maybe this year will be the last time they'll see each other.
In that case, let's enjoy the moment.
"Ellie. Come. The young father smiled, took the knife from Claude's butler, and placed it in the girl's fleshy paws.
"My daughter. Make a wish. No matter what the wish ......"
"Hmm!"
Ellie nodded heavily and closed her eyes. He began to mumble under his breath.
"Ellie wants to grow up quickly, and Dad always treats Ellie as a child......"

"Come, Ellie, let's have cake...... By the way, I almost forgot, Claude. β
"Yes, sir."
The black-clad butler bowed slightly, then handed a delicately decorated box to the curious eldest lady.
"I couldn't help it before, but this year there's absolutely no reason for it. Ellie, this is your birthday present, open it and take a look. β
"Birthday present?" Ellie looked at the box in front of her suspiciously, and then showed a big smile: "Thank you, Dad!" β
With the help of her friends, the excited daughter quickly opened the intricately decorated box to reveal the gifts inside. I saw a cute teddy bear lying quietly in the dark box. The swarthy eyes, the big bow tie, and the cute appearance captured the little girl's heart at once.
Ellie took the stuffed bear out of the box, rubbed her face twice, and then said to her father, "What a cute child, Ellie will treat it well." Thank you Dad! β
"Well, if you like it......"
Sure enough, the one who knows her daughter best will always be her mother?
