Successfully diverting Payne's attention from himself to Shelley, the Duke of Poka continued: "General Payne, I think you don't have to go back to the garrison for the next two days, and it is not too late to go back after Her Royal Highness the Princess has settled the matter for you. ”

Unlike the Lord's Guard, in order to better mobilize the troops in the border states, their own garrison is directly stationed on the edge of Canterlot, and it doesn't take much time to travel back and forth, so Payne immediately rejected Duke Poka's suggestion.

"Now that the situation is urgent, I can't leave the station for a long time, and when the princess arrives, you can use the same tree to inform me."

After saying that, he left in a hurry with the people.

"Hmph, being scared like this by a group of green-skinned ghosts, it seems that the level of the directly subordinate army has also dropped a lot in recent years."

Because he is also a general of the army, he is often compared to Payne. Although its own army is well-equipped and its combat power is not low. But simply comparing himself to Payne, almost no one thinks that he can compare to Payne, which has made Joel very unhappy all the time.

The Duke of Poka stroked his mustache very leisurely and said: "You have to understand and understand them, they have been peaceful a lot over the years, and their role is getting lower and lower, so whenever there is a sign of meritorious service, they will exaggerate and magnify." If they don't make an effort to show themselves, their existence will only get thinner. ”

"Hehehe, what my father said is, I think they just want to find some sense of existence before the new king is established. It's just that they're really hungry. At most, the greenskins will do some surprise attacks, even if they really have any weapons? Even that woman was able to deal with more than a thousand, let alone anywhere else. ”

"That being said, we still have to prepare some money afterwards to pacify the affected area. After all, I'm a benevolent lord. ”

"No, father, didn't you say that you were only a acting lord? Shouldn't the money for this appeasement also come from Her Royal Highness the Princess? ”

"Yes, yes, it seems that you have learned how to think about things, and you are worthy of being my son."

As he spoke, the father and son laughed proudly, as if they were about to see Shelley's helpless appearance at that time.

However, they thought they had dug a pit for Shelley, but they did not know that they themselves were in a huge pit.

After leaving Canterlot, Payne returned to the garrison without stopping, and before he could enter the camp gate, his men greeted him.

"General, you are finally back, Her Royal Highness Princess has been waiting for you for a long time."

"Your Highness the Princess?" Payne was stunned for a moment, and a person's name immediately came to mind, "Is it Princess Shelley?" ”

"Exactly."

It's really weird, could it be that she knows she's looking for her?

"Take me there."

When Payne saw Shelley, Shelley was pale and collapsed weakly on the couch in the military tent.

Seeing her like this, Payne was startled, could it be that she had been attacked? This is a big deal, because even the Duke of Poka didn't dare to really do anything out of the ordinary to Shelley, and dared to do something to a member of the royal family in this land, either an enemy country or a Warcraft alien.

Thinking of the recent rampant greenskins, Payne immediately concluded that she must have encountered the greenskins on the way over. The more he thought about it, the more it was true, and when he had just entered, he noticed that the princess had brought very few people, only three or four guards and two maids. This simply does not meet the specifications of a royal family going out.

It must be to protect her, so she stayed and broke off. In this way, she didn't go to Canterlot first, but went directly to their military camp, and it made sense that she must be looking for support.

"Your Royal Highness! Where are you attacked, I'll send someone to help ...... at once."

"Vomit ~~~~~~"

Before Payne could finish speaking, Shelley suddenly turned blue and squirted out a large amount of indescribable things from his mouth. Many of them splashed directly onto Payne's armor. Let's have a book

"Huh~Huh~" After vomiting, Shelley's face was finally a lot rudder, but he still gasped a little in prostration, "Okay...... It's much better, Mom, it's been a lot of carriages this day, and it's too fatal. ”

"......," the corners of Payne's mouth twitched, "Your Highness Princess, can you ask what happened to you?" ”

Shelley said a little embarrassedly: "Oh, I made you laugh, the carriage has been sitting for a long time, and I am dizzy." Belch...... Who are you? ”

Trying not to let himself go crazy, Payne blackened his face and said word by word: "I am the general of the army directly under the border state kingdom. ”

After about half an hour, both of them changed into clean clothes and changed places.

"Your Royal Highness, can you tell me why you came to me?"

Shelley took a sip of warm water elegantly, calmed down, and then said slowly, "Are you sure you don't want to find me?" Duke Pokata threw the pot on my head, right? Did you ask me for money? ”

Payne's heart was shocked, he went to Duke Poka today, and there were indeed a lot of people in the barracks who knew about it, but he didn't say anything about what he said. How did she know?

"Looking at you like this, I guess I'm right."

"You guessed?"

"What's so surprising about this, you went to Duke Pokata at this time, presumably for the sake of the greenskins, right?"

Payne's face was not good-looking: "That's what you guessed, too?" ”

"Don't use such a horrible expression, I didn't have anyone in your place. I know more about the dangers of the greenskins than you do......"

Ever since Shelley had fought with the Greenskins, she had been paying attention to their news these days, not only asking Momo and Dufang to explore the various Greenskins tribes, but also asking people to collect information about the recent attacks on human towns by Greenskins.

If you put these things together, as long as you don't have a problem with your brain, you can tell that the threat of the greenskin ghost is very great. As the general of the kingdom's direct army, Payne should be the first person to see these data messages. Therefore, he should naturally be able to judge the seriousness of the matter.

Shelley wanted to find him, but he didn't want him to go to the Duke of Poka first. She immediately guessed that Payne was going to ask for money and supplies, and with what she knew about Duke Pokata, he would definitely not pay attention to this matter, let alone pay for it.

“…… That fat man's son has been suffocating from me lately, and now he must be thinking about how to get it back from me. So I think he's going to throw the blame at me. What do you think? With that explanation, you almost don't have to suspect anything, right? ”

With that, Shelley took the tea and drank it.

Payne was dumbfounded, is this really the rumored good-for-nothing princess?

"Then why did you come to me for? Could it be true that they came to send me money? ”

"Well, you're right, I'm here to send you money."

"I know you don't have ...... What did you say? Payne was stunned and then stood up suddenly, "You send me money?" ”

"Not only money, but also food."

Looking at Shelley's mysterious smile, Payne asked with a look of disbelief, "Are you rich?" ”

"Not yet, but in two or three days it will be. As for the grain, I will give you as much as you want. ”
