This question obviously stumped Anna.

For Anna, although she has been with Alan Knight for many years, it can be regarded as getting along day and night, but to say that marrying him... Anna had never thought of it that way, in the past, Alan Knight was just an orphan-born follower by his father's side, and to be honest, Anna didn't look down on him at all.

But clearly, this is not the case.

The Knight of Allen is now the illegitimate son of Baron Paine, and the only legitimate heir to the throne of Baron Paine - Baron Paine has no other children and no siblings.

And she is about to fall into the dust from that princess-like identity.

"I..."

Anna looked at Eren and hesitated, she was still young after all, and she had also dreamed of a prince and a white horse, and Eren was obviously not the person in her dreams.

"I do..."

Just hesitate for a moment.

Anna still bit her lip and whispered yes.

It's better than having your dreams shattered than falling from the clouds into the dust.

I just went from being a baron's daughter to a baroness... It's better than becoming a peasant woman and village girl who worries about food and clothing.

With a look of ecstasy on his face, Alan Knight stepped forward and hugged the "Princess Anna" he had in mind.

"Ahem—"

Zhao Li let out two coughs on the side, reminding him of his existence.

"Franken, regarding Anna's identity, I hope you will keep it a secret when you return to Peel Town. ”

Knight Allen, no, he should already be called Baron Allen, he turned to Zhao Li and added, "I will also pay you the thirty gold coins that Lord Paine promised earlier. ”

Zhao Li smiled, just kidding, is he someone who can be bought by thirty gold coins?

"Congratulations, Baron Allen, but I'm not short of money. With a slight smile, Zhao Li said to the Alan Knight: "The matter of keeping your identity secret... Of course, no problem, but I have a small favor that I need your cooperation. ”

"What's the little favor?"

Baron Allen asked with a frown, his instinctive feeling a hint of discomfort.

It seems that since the change of his identity, the whole person has become more majestic.

"As for the Pure Brotherhood, I hope you can pretend not to know about it when you take up the baronial throne. Zhao Li said lightly.

"Pure Brotherhood?"

When Baron Allen heard this name, his face was obviously a little worse, and he said very decisively: "This is impossible, you also know what the Pure Brotherhood does, this kind of evil organization, I will never let them exist in my territory!"

"Looks like you've forgotten your roots. Zhao Li smiled: "If there is no Pure Brotherhood, you will not be able to inherit the title of Baron Paine." ”

"These are two different things. ”

Baron Allen straightened up and said generously: "In the face of this evil existence, any lord has the obligation to protect the safety of his subjects, and, Franken, you came to rescue the innocent at the request of my father's mercenary, I believe that your essence is not evil..."

"I don't know why you made such an unreasonable request, but I remember your outstanding performance in this battle, I will not bother with you, but I will never compromise with any evil forces, if I agree to your request, then what is the difference between me, you and the Pure Brotherhood..."

"Of course, I feel your justice. ”

Zhao Li nodded, slapped a hand on Baron Allen's shoulder, and asked again: "In this way, if I guarantee that the Pure Brotherhood will be completely destroyed in the near future, I just need you to ignore their existence for the time being—maybe a few days, maybe a few months, no matter what they do during this period, can you accept my request?"

Baron Allen's brow tightened, and he blurted out without thinking: "Never, I emphasize one last time, I will never endure any evil forces wreaking havoc in my territory, even if it exists for a quarter of an hour, I will never-"

But this time.

Baron Allen's words came to an abrupt end before he finished speaking.

At the same time as the voice suddenly stopped, there was a slight "click" sound.

I saw that Zhao Li's hand on Baron Allen's shoulder had been pinched around his neck.

Allen, who had just been promoted from knight to baron for less than five minutes, was still full of disbelief at this time, his eyes were wide open, but there was no more light in his eyes, and his head was tilted to one side.

With Zhao Li's current strength, it would not be more difficult to break the neck of an ordinary person than it would be to break a piece of grass.

"You're right, I'm no different from the Pure Brotherhood. ”

Zhao Li let go of his hand, watched Baron Allen, who had just been in office for less than five minutes, slowly fall to the ground, and said calmly: "If you fight with the evil dragon for too long, you will become an evil dragon yourself; If this is the necessary price to pay for victory, then... I am the dragon!"

"Ah ——!"

Miss Anna on the side watched Zhao Li suddenly make a move and strangle Allen, and couldn't help but let out a scream of fear.

"Congratulations, from now on, you are Baroness Anna. ”

Zhao Li turned to Anna and said lightly.

Anna's hands clung to the hem of her skirt, and her face was full of horror, and she retreated again and again until she hit a tree, and she sat down on the ground, clinging to the trunk and shivering.

This man also said 'Congratulations, Baron Allen' before, but just now he blatantly strangled Allen!

Anna pleaded in fear, "Please, please, don't, don't kill me..."

"I don't want to kill you, in fact, I don't want to kill Eren either, it's just that he is the lord, and some things hinder me. ”

Zhao Li said with a blank face on his face: "Alan just said that 'any lord has the obligation to protect the safety of his subjects', then I would like to ask, after you become Baroness Anna, can you listen to my opinion and pretend not to know anything about the Pure Brotherhood?"

Anna nodded frantically and said, "Of course, of course, I will listen to any of your opinions, I don't know anything about the Pure Brotherhood, yes, I haven't heard of this name..."

"Very well, you will be an excellent baron. ”

Zhao Li nodded, approached the newly appointed Baroness Anna, and stretched out a hand to pull the still trembling and frightened lady up from the ground.

"You see, if you grant me this little request, nothing will happen. Okay, get some rest, and when I get the two guys from the cabin, I'll take you back to Peel Town. ”

Zhao Li comforted the new Baroness Anna, and then turned and walked back to the cabin.

In any case, as long as the lord who rules Peel Town can turn a blind eye to what the Pure Brotherhood does, his plan will be able to unfold smoothly - although Zhao Li doesn't like the Pure Brotherhood either, and wants to get rid of them as soon as possible, but it's not time yet.

Anna looked at Zhao Li's back, and her trembling body finally recovered a little - this Franconian is fully capable of pinching her to death like an ant, but since she was spared, then she should really be safe?

Anna, who was slightly relieved, looked at the dead "Father Baron Paine" and "Husband Baron Allen" on the side, and her heart was full of mixed feelings at this time. ()
