In the middle of the night, the castle dormitory was still brightly lit, and Relore was lying on the bed, clutching the quilt with both hands, her eyes staring straight at the ceiling, as if she didn't dare to blink.

Cui Qian, the maid next to her, sighed: "Your Highness...... You can't sleep with the lights on, so at least let me dim it. ”

The princess shook her head resolutely, originally darkness meant a sweet sleep for her, but after that night, darkness ...... No, even if it's just dim, it means endless fear.

She turned to look at Trissy, her face longing.

Cui Qian shook her head resolutely: "I can't sleep with you, you know, you will scream loudly if I move a little." ”

The princess's eyes were covered with tears, and she whispered, "But I dare not close my eyes, I am afraid ......"

Cui Qian sighed secretly, she had been pampered since she was a child, but her parents and siblings were killed overnight, and she relied on the loyal guards to protect her desperately. That's why Relore is afraid of the night, afraid that when she closes her eyes and opens them again, those terrible killers suddenly appear.

"Then you can only use magic magic......

Cui Qian said helplessly, she is the priest apprentice of the noble goddess, and there is no problem with a magic technique like sleeping spell. However, it didn't have much effect on Reloel, who was the second-level priest of the noble goddess, until midnight at most, and let her sleep until midnight.

Reloel shook her head more resolutely: "No, I don't want to wake up in the middle of the night!"

Tricy said again: "Tomorrow the Earl is coming, and if Your Highness dozes off when you see him, it will be troublesome." ”

Rerol frowned in annoyance, and turned her gaze to the table, where there was a medicine bottle.

"You can't take the sleeping potion anymore", Trisy denied this option again, taking too much sleeping potion will damage the soul.

After a long silence, Ryrol suddenly raised her thin willow eyebrows and said, "Call Mr. Sardar and let him guard me and tell me a story." Like during the day, I fell asleep listening to it. ”

Cui Qian subconsciously objected: "How can that be? This is His Highness's bedroom! How can a man, or such an old and stupid man, come in?"

"He's a knight, Tricy," said Reyrol, "though it's not...... Smart, but he's a real knight. ”

The princess said again, "And you'll be by the side, won't you?"

Tricy struggled for a while between letting the man step into the princess's bedroom and facing the Earl tomorrow, and finally nodded helplessly.

After a while, Sardar came over rubbing his sleepy eyes.

He was startled at first, as a knight, how could he step into the boudoir of Her Royal Highness the Princess?

The princess said it was all right, but just wanted to hear his story, so he crept in, shrunk by the door, and sat down on the bed.

"Come here," said the princess, pointing to the table, "at least where I can see it." ”

The pajamas slid down, revealing their small white arms, and Sardar quickly turned his head away.

The old man's heart suddenly throbbed, if his mother-in-law hadn't run away, if he had given birth to a daughter, he would have been as big as Her Royal Highness the Princess, and her skin would be so white.

"Oh, tell the story......"

Sardar came back to his senses, thought about it, and decided to talk about his young master's kindness.

Although they felt that Tarens did not want to bring the princess back, Sardar felt that his young master was merciful. At the beginning, even a dirty child like Fini had to be taken in, how could such a beautiful princess abandon it.

As long as the young master says a word, Princess Reloll may become a lady. Even if the young master only likes His Royal Highness Aurora, does not accept the princess, and becomes an adopted daughter, then she is a young lady with the same status as Her Royal Highness Sisi.

More than 200 His Royal Highnesses are all daughters of the young master, what is one more?

So let's start with the young master's first daughter, Her Royal Highness Fini, although Her Royal Highness Fini keeps saying that she is the only one of the young master, and when she grows up, she wants to take the position of Madame Aurora and step on the young master's head with a crystal slipper, but Sardar can feel that the young master raised Her Royal Highness Fini as a daughter.

What's more, Her Royal Highness Fini, like Her Royal Highness Ellie, has not changed at all in the past few years, as if she has not grown up in her life.

"Does Her Royal Highness know about the witch?"

Sardar began to speak: "Yes, witches are very terrible existences, but Your Highness definitely doesn't know that witches are saints. ”

"On that day, there was lightning and thunder above the castle, and the young master listened to the oracle on the castle......"

"The young master sensed that there were many sins in the territory, and he decided to release all the prisoners......"

"The witch appeared in the prison, and she knocked me and all the guards to the ground at once, and I couldn't even move my fingers......"

"The young master is the Pope, and he is not afraid to face the witch. But instead of making a move, he looked at the witch and shed tears of sympathy......"

"The young master said, you must have suffered a lot, you must be very painful......"

"The young master stretched out his arms and said loudly, come into my arms, and cry for a good ......"

"I loudly persuaded the young master, saying that it was a witch, and if it was eroded by the witch's corrupt divine power, it would turn into a living corpse......"

"The young master said, I'm not afraid, I have the protection of the goddess. And how can such a beautiful little girl harm people......"

"The witch threw herself into the young master's arms and cried loudly, and white light poured out of the young master's body......"

It was already the middle of the night, and the princess not only did not feel sleepy, but was more energetic.

Her eyes flashed with excitement: "Grandpa Tarence came to Duke Prell like this, and His Royal Highness Finney was a witch before......"

"Your Highness, it's time to sleep," Trisy said, yawning.

"Okay......"

The princess's fear was reduced by half: "Trissy, give me a sleeping technique." Thank you, Mr. Sardar, for your story, and if you can tomorrow, can you keep telling me?"

Sensing that he had indeed done something, Sardar said with joy: "Yes, Your Highness the Princess." ”

After Sardar left, a white light appeared on Trissy's hand, and when the divine light was about to fall on her forehead, Ryrol muttered, "If I were also a witch, how nice it would be." ”

It was the sweetest night of her life, and she was in good spirits when she faced Count Hansen, who had come to "say hello".

"I am very happy that Your Highness has recovered. ”

Compared with Baron Hansen that Li Qi saw in the Molten Flame Region at the beginning, this Count Hansen still has the same demeanor, and he is still a tall, burly, and graceful knight. However, the wrinkles in the center of the eyebrows are much deeper than at the beginning, so I don't know if there are more troubles related to the situation in the kingdom or more troubles related to the replacement of the knight god.

"Your Highness should also know that His Majesty the Emperor of the Holy Will Empire and the Duke of Prell have been supporting us, and now the Duke of Prell's mobile fortress is approaching the Folding Sword Fortress, and Belino's tyrannical rule is coming to an end. ”

Earl Hansen routinely comforted Relore: "So Your Royal Highness the princess should take care of yourself, and when the time comes, you will have to lead us to recover the kingdom of Kerst from the disaster." ”

Reloll responded cautiously: "As long as the suffering of the people can end as soon as possible, for this, let me do anything, I am willing." ”

"I really admire the courage of Your Highness", Count Hansen laughed, "Tomorrow night some nobles will come and swear allegiance to Your Highness, and I hope your spirit will be as good as today." ”

Rerol thought, it looks like I'll have to tell Mr. Sardar a story tonight.

Hansen's meeting with the princess was only a courtesy, and when he met with Ravel and Sardar, among others, it was only about substance.

"The commander of the Broken Sword Fortress is the Marquis of Vic, and I have communicated with him", Count Hansen said of the progress of the work in the recent period: "It is true that he is not satisfied with the rule of the Mad King, but he has hundreds of thousands of soldiers in his hands, and can mobilize all the resources of the South, and he scoffs at my proposal." It seems that the Duke ...... Oh, the cardinal, on his part, you have to put enough pressure on him militarily to make him see the reality. ”

"I have contacted dozens of nobles, and I will come here tomorrow to meet Her Royal Highness the Princess and sign the pledge of allegiance. Their territories are spread across the west, north, and center, and they are reliable enough to endure the Mad King's rule. ”

"Together with the aristocracy of the east, we have a third of the land and a quarter of the population. It is possible to organize an army of more than 100,000 people! Among them, there will be no less than 20,000 transcendents! There are even a few legends who have secretly said that as long as we raise the banner, they will stand by our side!"

In Count Hansen's rhetoric, the situation in the kingdom of Kerst is very good, and it couldn't be better.

He said eagerly: "But we are still very lacking in high-end combat power, if the Mad King detects our movements and comes here directly to arrest us, everyone is in danger, didn't the chief cardinal promise to send strong support immediately?"

Looking at the two new faces, a man and a woman, his brow furrowed even deeper: "I don't see the legend. ”

The two newcomers were White Mouse and Helva, and White Mouse said, "There will be support then, and the Count don't worry." ”

Lavel's expression was unusually solemn: "Earl, will these people you organize conflict with the agreement between us?

Count Hansen twitched his cheeks and said with a smile: "Of course, otherwise how could I have pulled them in? I have been working for the cardinal for a long time, and the will of the cardinal is the first! The crimson brilliance will surely spread throughout Finn, and this is an undoubted glorious prospect!"

Ravel and the others laughed and said as if your crimson faith was stronger than that of us members of the Phillips Party.

And what is the will of the cardinal first, these words make Xiaohong ...... Well, the goddess listened, and the cardinal had to kneel on the washboard.

Hansen said this merely to make a basic stance, and he continued: "There will indeed be some trouble, so I have deliberately avoided the nobles in the predetermined area. In addition, some people who cannot see the situation clearly may not be able to accept it emotionally. But when Belino fell, and the army of the Holy Will Empire and the army of the Philippet entered the kist, they could only accept the reality. ”

Lavel nodded: "I hope so......"

When Tarence arrived, he had a relationship with Count Hansen and could cooperate with the old nobles of Kester, but there were prerequisites and they were very harsh.

The Fei Gong promised to keep the Kingdom of Koster in the future, but it had to cede the entire southern, western and eastern parts of the country to the Fei Gong. The Holy Will Empire will also have territorial and population claims to the northern part of Kester, leaving close to half of the territory and population of the old nobility of Kister on both sides.

This is not in line with the real intentions of the Ferrean Republic and the Holy Will Empire against Koster, and the conspiracy between Litch and Romerroth is that the Holy Will Empire will divide the northern and central parts of Koster, which are the richest regions and account for three-fifths of the country's population. The Fergus would have taken the eastern, western and southern regions, which accounted for three-fifths of the area and only two-fifths of the population.

It was a fair deal, Romros's side was a frontal battle against Belino, and the Fergus only provided weapons and equipment, and at the same time dispatched advisers and flying troops. On the battlefield in the south, the enemy faced by the Fei Gong was not very strong. In the end, not only large tracts of land could be harvested, but also four or five million people of Kxter.

This plan is not only based on defeating Belino, but also to ensure that Theresia does not backtrack. In the era of the Order Alliance, she tacitly assumed that the Kingdom of Kist was the "development scope" of the Fei Gong.

If the old nobles fully cooperate, then temporarily retaining the kingdom of Kist would also be a transitional measure to kill two birds with one stone. This will not only reduce the resistance of the old nobles, but also reduce the risk of change on Theresia's side.

The struggle should be tactical, and this is the collective result of the collective wisdom of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Federium. After all, it's only a million people, and the Fei Gong will have to digest it for a long time. Taking over one and a half times the land and ten times the population at once is a big burden in a short period of time. In the tide of the era change, it is very dangerous to be dragged to a faltering pace.

However, neither Richie nor the people of the Tahrance Working Group thought that the cooperation with the old aristocracy would go smoothly to the end, otherwise they would not have led the mass revolution directly in the Koster Kingdom at the same time.

No one believed that Earl Hansen regarded this plan as a real goal, and this guy was just using the Fei Gong as a force to be used, so that he could gather the other old nobles and give himself enough say in the future political map of Caster.

In other words, this "Neoxter Kingdom" only exists in the PPT where the two sides temporarily maintain a state of cooperation, after all, there is a possibility of becoming a reality in theory.

Count Hansen then exchanged information with the working group, and after being defeated at the front, Belino returned to the royal capital behind closed doors. The new nobles he divided into were very active, forming new legions, and some of them were copying a large number of magic planes.

Lavelle sighed, "It looks like the Mad King is preparing to launch a new offensive, and is likely to move south to stop us." ”

Earl Hansen shook his head and said, "Not necessarily, Marquis Vic, and the new nobles in the south, have received orders to try their best to stop the Fei Gong, and there is no mention that he will lead the army south." I suspect he's given up on the south side, and is gathering the last wave of strength to hit Ika in one go. ”

Sardar was dumbfounded: "He doesn't care about the kingdom of Koster?"

Count Hansen sneered: "What did he do, which one was thinking about the future of this kingdom? In his eyes, there was no such country at all, all he wanted was incense!"

When it comes to understanding Belino, the members of the Fergus present are naturally far inferior to Count Hansen.

The white mouse nodded: "I also agree with this judgment, otherwise why would everyone call him the Mad King?"

Since the Mad King's eyes are still on Hiroka, things on the working group's side will be easy to handle, and everything will go according to plan.

After Count Hansen left, the white mouse frowned and asked, "This guy, is there really no conspiracy?"

The beautiful Helva said: "It would be good if Her Highness Tina came down, in front of her, Hansen would not want to play any conspiracy." And Rezling's legion isn't far from here, isn't it?plus the Eagle Legion in Kister's native area, even if the old nobles rebel to Belino's side, we'll still be overthrown!"

Ravelle said with some concern: "Over there...... I hope the old director will go well. ”

Here, Count Hansen followed aristocratic etiquette, and after bidding farewell to Princess Rylor, he mounted a griffon and left the castle with a team of guards.

In the air, he dodged the guards and secretly rubbed the Transmission Ring.

A shrill voice pierced into his ears: "Hansen, Your Majesty is not here, I will report something." ”

Hansen gritted his teeth and whispered, "Everything is normal......"

The voice laughed and said, "Yes, I can't help but drool at that noble and sweet blood, and I will come and supervise you personally." ”

An hour later, the griffons flew out of the mountains and descended into a much larger castle near the ridge.

Hansen dismounted from the griffin and hurried to the communication room, but instead of using the Book of Trade Winds, he used a very peculiar crystal ball to contact anyone.

The crystal ball was filled with gray and black mist, and a hooded guest could be faintly seen.

The two talked for a while, and Hansen said, "I must meet the people around His Majesty and confirm that this is His Majesty's will, otherwise I will take too much risk." ”

The hooded man smiled lowly, "That's no problem......"

At the end of the communication, Hansen wiped the sweat from his forehead and whispered to himself, "I'm guarding Chester, yes, I'm doing the right thing!"
