The elder named Leah held up a teacup, which was filled with the fragrance of tea. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info Tian Lai Novel.23txt. She carried a silver spoon in one hand and stirred it in the cup, and said, "Grand Duke, do you know what the consequences of doing this will be? ”

She called Elise the Grand Duke and pointed out the seriousness of the problem, how could Elise not know, and whispered: "From now on, the two families of Sray and Bolin will be at odds. Even if the previous relationship is maintained on the surface, there will definitely be something that has changed in the bones. ”

"That's right, but the Grand Duke of the Southern Realm is also a good choice. This grand duke is young and promising, and his military strength is prosperous, so it can be seen that he will be an imperial celebrity for the next ten years. Except for the lack of foundation, there is nothing wrong. If the Boleyn family marries him, the family's prospects will not be much worse. The elder paused and said, "However, I don't know if the Grand Duke will really marry you. Tell me, Grand Duke, are you in love, or are you acting impromptuly? ”

Elise said calmly: "I don't want to marry Nopet, so I asked Archduke Allen to do me a favor." ”

Elder Rhea closed his eyes with a look that was indeed the case.

Elise stood up and said loudly, "Elder Leah, why can't I choose the person I like. If I marry Peter for the sake of my family, then I can earn more honor and power for my family, and I don't necessarily need to rely on marriage to gain support. ”

"I know, Grand Duke, you are very capable. At that time, arranging for the Prime Minister and Princess to leave the imperial capital has fully demonstrated your ability, and then assisted His Majesty Julian in restoring the throne. Before Archduke Allen returned, our Boleyn family had been hidden as dukes. Leah said solemnly: "But you are always a woman, if you are a man, then we don't have to worry about you so much." As a woman, especially a woman from the Bolin family, you should be well aware of your obligations. Today you can refuse Nopet, but there are still three archdukes, many nobles. You always have to choose one to marry, so that we can continue the bloodline of our Bolin family. What's more, if the object is a family like the Shi Lei family, then our family can win at least ten years, or even more. ”

"You don't have to be dissatisfied, let me ask you, how many years will it take you to earn one-third of the Shi Lei family's property at once?"

Elise sneered: "It turns out that the Grand Duke is just a bitch who can be measured by money. ”

"Elizabeth!" The elder clapped the case: "You are no longer a child, you used to be willful, how can you still be like this now." ”

"Anyway, I won't sacrifice my happiness casually!" Elise said loudly: "If I have to marry myself to be worthy of the family, then this Grand Duke of Tsutaka, you can ask someone else to do it, Miss I won't do it!" ”

The elder shook his head again and again with anger on his chest. After a while, she calmed down a little, sat down and said, "You refuse to marry Nopeter, is it because you have someone you like?" Is it Archduke Allen that you like? ”

Elise, who was still arrogant, suddenly turned red when she heard Elder Leah's words, and said don't look around, "Do I like anyone who needs to report to the Council of Elders?" ”

Although she did not answer directly, the answer was already clear. Elder Lea shook his head and said, "Grand Duke Allen has such an achievement at a young age, no wonder you are tempted. ”

Elise whispered, "It's not like him now. ”

The elder gave her a blank look: "So, you already liked him before?" It seems that you went to Gun City alone to watch the ceremony, and a lot of things did happen. ”

Elise was shocked and simply closed her mouth and stopped talking. Elder Rhea said again, "But I heard a piece of news, Grand Duke Allen may be ......"

She gestured toward the ceiling.

Elise couldn't see anything for a long time, so she had to ask, "What could it be?" ”

"Celestials."

The Grand Duke's pupils suddenly shrank slightly, and Elder Lea continued, "If he is really a celestial, then you should understand how far you are from him. Take 10,000 steps back, if he really has a heart for you, are you willing to give up your family for him? ”

Elise was silent.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and the elder said, "Come in," and the butler Stamm pushed the door in and said to Elise, "Archduke Allen has sent something to me." ”

This time, Elise was stunned: "What's it?" ”

Stam stepped forward and put down a long box in his hand. When I opened the box, there was a scroll inside. Stam took it out, placed the scroll on the table and pulled it open, and it turned out to be a map. The Elder and Elise walked over, and it turned out to be a map of the southern border of the Empire, on which a territory had been circled with a pen, and this territory had enclosed cities like Satinia as well.

Elder Rhea looked up and asked, "What is this?" ”

"I heard that this is the map that Fort Dawn has just sent to the Grand Duke's Residence, and on the map, His Majesty personally circles the territory of Grand Duke Allen. The attendant who brought the map said that it was for Grand Duke Tsutaka. Archduke Allen also said that if he was not poor, all his territories or cities would be chosen by the Bolin family as a gift for his engagement to Grand Duke Tsutaka! ”

"What?"

Elise and Elder Leah exclaimed in unison, and Elise was surprised that Alan was actually planning to marry her, and she was immediately surprised and delighted. Elder Lea was shocked that this Grand Duke Allen was so generous, and directly took his own territory to be selected by the Bolin family. Of course, the most valuable part of this vast territory is the city of Sardinia, and if it is this city, it is one-third of the property of the Shi Lei family.

Stam couldn't help but laugh: "This archduke, it's good. It's good, I like him, hehe. ”

In the hotel that Julian arranged for Ellen, Alan, who had just taken a shower and changed his clothes, came to the bedroom and saw Lucy and Lola talking about something, chuckling from time to time. He walked over and said, "Tell me anything you are happy about." ”

Lucy stood up and said, "I did something for you, and I want to hear how you thank me." ”

"What did you do?"

"I helped you agree to the engagement with Grand Duke Tsutaka, and I also took the map of the territory that I just sent from Fort Dawn to the Bolin Mansion to show the sincerity of our Grand Duke Allen."

Alan was drinking water and almost didn't squirt it out when he heard this. He smiled wryly, "You really did that? As I said, I was just doing Elise a favor at the banquet, not taking it seriously. ”

Lucy looked at Lola, and then both women shook their heads. Lola said, "Are you so stupid or so stupid that you can't even see Elise's intentions. ”

"That is, if she doesn't really like you, she will say that she is your fiancée in public? She is the Grand Duke of Tsutaka, how could she do such a thing that damages her reputation. Lucy rolled her eyes.
