The next morning.

In the Copper Palace.

Gorgeous hall.

The Archduke of Estonia, with his elegant beard, was roaring wildly on the throne at this time, with a sad face!

"Elizabeth, my darling Elizabeth! Yesterday afternoon, she was still telling me that she was going to have breakfast with me this morning! One night, you told me she was gone! ”

"Tell me, what do you mean it's gone?"

The Archduke of Estonia was like an erupting volcano at this time, and like a raging wave, and his tone was full of coldness.

The attendants and guards below all stood with blank faces, silent, and did not dare to act rashly, for fear that a small action of their own would attract the attention of the Estonian Grand Duke and bear his stormy anger.

However, sometimes it is not possible to solve the problem without speaking, and it can be sunny in the rain.

No!

The silence of the attendants and guards made the Archduke of Estonia even angrier, and the anger in his heart burned even more violently, and suddenly, he picked up a candlestick beside him and threw it at the guards.

The middle of the candlestick struck an unlucky guard in the cheek.

The hapless guard's face suddenly turned bruised and his nose was bloody.

Although it hurt terribly, the guard didn't dare to move, didn't dare to wipe it, didn't dare to cry out in pain, and let the nosebleed flow.

This kind of tough guy style made the Grand Duke of Estonia angry, he pointed to the noses of everyone present and scolded, "Are you waste? A good person, a person, why is it gone? It's gone? ”

"What's going on?"

"Tell me!"

"What happened last night? What do you see? ”

The Archduke of Estonia questioned again and again, and finally his eyes fell on the two guards.

These two guards were the same two who had been knocked unconscious by William that night.

Faced with the questioning of the Archduke of Estonia, the two guards trembled slightly, their faces were bitter, and they racked their brains to recall the events of last night, but they did not think of any useful information, and they were speechless for a while.

"Rubbish!" The Grand Duke of Estonia waited for a while, but without waiting for the two guards to speak, his heart was furious, and he picked up the thing next to him and smashed it.

The two guards were suddenly smashed on the head and bleeding, and their faces were sad!

"Rubbish! It's all rubbish! What am I raising you all this waste for! The Archduke of Estonia roared hysterically over the main hall.

All the guards and attendants suffered in silence.

At the end of the scolding, the Archduke of Estonia's voice was lowered, his face was completely covered with sadness, and he wailed, "Elizabeth! My lovely daughter, Elizabeth, is so young. She's never done a single bad thing! Why? Why let bad luck bebeupon her? ”

"Children who have not been lucky since birth, can you bear to torture these kind children so much?"

The Grand Duke of Estonia looked up in the direction of the sky and did not know who he was talking to.

......The sound of light footsteps came from outside the main hall, from far and near, and attracted the attention of the Archduke of Estonia.

The Archduke of Estonia looked in the direction from which the voice came.

After waiting quietly for a while, two figures walked into the hall one after the other.

Walking in front was a middle-aged beautiful woman with still charm, she was wearing a gorgeous red dress, her brows were deep, and the faint wrinkles at the corners of her eyes showed that she was no longer young.

Walking behind was an old palace maid with a wrinkled face, she didn't smile, her face was blank, and she followed quietly behind the middle-aged beauty.

The two women walked quickly to the Archduke of Estonia.

The old palace maid took the lead in saluting and said, "Your Royal Highness, good day!" ”

The middle-aged beautiful woman then looked at the Archduke of Estonia in a caring tone, and said, "Edward......"

The Archduke of Estonia had a painful look on his face, he closed his eyes, and then opened them again, his eyes were shining with tears, he looked at the middle-aged beauty, and said in a desperate tone, "Susan, our Elizabeth, our lovely child, the kind Elizabeth, is gone!" ”

The middle-aged beautiful woman, who is also the beloved woman of the Archduke of Estonia and the mother of Princess Elizabeth, saw this and hurriedly walked to the side of the Archduke of Estonia, supported his body, and comforted him, "We will find Elizabeth!" Don't worry, that child is so kind, even if it is an angel, she will like her, and she will definitely be safe! ”

As she spoke, Susan, a middle-aged beautiful woman, motioned with her eyes to the guards and entourage present to go out!

The guards and attendants suddenly showed a look of relief, and after saluting the Grand Duchess Susan and the Archduke of Estonia, they retreated quietly and orderly!

Soon, only the Grand Duchess Susan and the Archduke of Estonia were left in the entire hall, as well as the silent old palace maid.

The Grand Duchess said to Estonia with a straight face, "Edward, I have a clue about our daughter Elizabeth. ”

"Really?" Like a man about to drown, he suddenly had a chance to breathe, his eyes lit up with ecstasy, and he looked at his wife with fear.

"Yes!" Grand Duchess Susan soothed her husband's fragile heart with her own hand, and then looked back at the old palace maid, "Kitty, you can tell me!" ”

"Yes, ma'am!" The old maid saluted the Grand Duchess Susan.

The Estonian Grand Duke's brows furrowed slightly unconsciously, he knew this old palace maid, the maid brought by his wife from her family, a personal maid who had watched his wife grow up since childhood.

But the Grand Duke had never liked the old woman very much, because the Grand Duke thought she was a little eccentric, but because of his wife's relationship, the Grand Duke of Estonia could not say anything.

This old woman is also very eye-catching, knowing that the Archduke of Estonia does not like her, and when there is nothing to do, she will never dangle under the nose of the Grand Duke.

The two have been together for more than ten years.

It's just that the Grand Duke of Estonia didn't expect that in the end it was this old woman who brought him the information of his favorite precious daughter.

The Archduke of Estonia had mixed feelings, but asked anxiously, "Kitty, tell me, what do you know!" ”

"I know who kidnapped Princess Elizabeth!" Kitty's words were like a shock, and the Grand Duke of Estonia's breathing suddenly became heavy.

"Who is it?"

"A young man!" Kitty, the old palace maid, said in a calm tone.

"Where?" The Archduke of Estonia asked again.

"I don't know!" The old palace maid Kitty's eyes flashed with a hint of bitterness, and she shook her head and said.

"How could you not know?" The Archduke of Estonia roared angrily.

The old palace maid Kitty is silent!
