Chapter 208: The Duke's Eldest Daughter

Table.

Mountains of official documents.

A young nobleman with a pen is reviewing them.

But he clearly didn't take it very seriously. At this time, the tip of the pen had been pressed against the paper for a long time, so that the ink that flowed from it had already wet the white piece, and he was unaware of it.

Someone noticed that a document had become a waste of paper: "You didn't concentrate enough and didn't sleep well last night?"

The sudden appearance of a female voice in the room woke the man.

"I'm sorry. ”

In this regard, the man only said these two words without explaining too much.

"You're going to be in charge of Pelos in the future, but not now. The woman sighed, her disappointment palpable.

According to this statement, her identity is also about to be revealed.

Joanna, the eldest daughter of the Duke.

This is the office of the main fort of the city of Pylos. As the eldest daughter of the duke and the deputy of the city lord, she is the supreme commander of the city as long as the duke is not there.

At this time, Miss Joanna is teaching her younger brother Papitt how to handle government affairs so that he can become the lord of the city.

But his performance was just too bad.

In fact, Joanna knew very well that this brother of hers was not a guy who could become the lord of a city at all.

Not smart enough to make a mess of government affairs, not working hard enough to know nothing about what he is going to carry, not serious enough, as if he can only show 100% energy when he is interested in something, such as taking a gun to the shooting range.

But this guy passed the exam and became the only designated heir to Pelos recognized by the Ode royal family.

Joanna didn't have to look in the mirror to know that her head must have doubled her usual size by now.

"Forget it, it's over early today. You don't have the heart to look at it anyway. She said to Papit.

And this is undoubtedly an angry word.

In any case, it is always necessary to learn government affairs. Even if you really can't stuff anything into his head today, you can't let him leave. Once he has made the beginning, he will have the same idea because of the precedent in the future, which will undoubtedly be detrimental to his learning progress.

But when Papitt heard this, he got up and ran out of the door, not even giving Joanna time to shout the word "stop."

......

After dealing with the mess left by Papitt, Joanna leaned back in her chair and stretched.

After taking a sip of the black tea handed by the maid, she spread out today's Pelos Daily. Even in her free time, she takes advantage of it in order to know the trivia that is happening in the city.

Joanna is a hard worker.

But ordinary harders will only take out the time for coffee break and dessert to read books. But Joanna was different, she would say: why not do it together?

Joanna is smart enough.

She also has enough brain power to do two things, or even multitask, which allows her to do more in her limited time.

Joanna is also very serious.

She could stay in the studio for two whole days, until the Duke himself came to drive her to bed. But she didn't listen much to her father, and as soon as he was gone, she quietly got up again to finish what she thought was a great painting.

Joanna is a genius.

Her father first discovered this, and that day the Duke inadvertently complained about government affairs while chatting with his daughter, but the little girl was able to solve it within a few words. And how did she learn this by having been almost exclusively in her studio, and the Duke was curious.

So he began to visit his daughter with a broken leg often, and at the same time began to talk to her about adult topics. Immediately afterwards, the Duke discovered that his daughter had a great talent for almost anything.

You must not bury your daughter's talents!

The father decided on the spot - to leave Joanna alone in the Pelos Library, and at the same time shut it off for all of Pelos.

Joanna, who has always only liked to draw, surprisingly did not make a big noise in the face of a mountain of books, but read according to her father's wishes. At the same time, apart from the maid who came to deliver the meal, she had no second communication partner every day.

The Library of Pelos was closed for a full year.

One day, a year later, Joanna said to the maid, "I want to go out." ”

The maid conveyed this to the duke.

The Duke agreed.

And when he meets Joanna, he learns why she wants to come out.

After reading the book, it was boring.

......

Today, the Duke can rest assured that he will leave the Pylos to Joanna without worrying about any trouble. Aside from when making major decisions, Duke Pelos has rarely been seen in the main castle.

The only pity is that if her leg is not broken, she will definitely be able to become the most qualified... No, the most outstanding heir.

Joanna is a genius.

The maid watched indifferently at Joanna, and after she had flipped through the whole newspaper for a minute, she knew that the young lady had finished reading it. She was not the first person to see such a scene, and she was surprised that this emotion seemed to disappear to her after spending a long time with the young lady.

... Wait, the young lady opened the newspaper again.

What made Joanna do this was an auction news:

This weekend, the Los Angeles Auction House will host an auction featuring Medellin's "Island of Dreams."
