"Anya, you have a good rest first, and I'll be back with you in a while. "The lord turned to the beautiful woman on the bed in a crispy and numbing voice, and then he turned and ordered in a stern tone that could not be questioned: "Turnips, hurry up and send me to Cook, and let him put down his business and cook the most delicious food for my Anya!"

Robert pointed to his face and protested unconvinced, "I'm a knight anyway, and I'm not a manservant, don't look for me for this kind of servant!"

"You know you're a knight, you should have gotten out and fended for yourself, instead of sticking to my castle like a slug!"

Robert clutched his heart and made a painful appearance, "Boss, I really hurt when you say this!"

"If you are injured in this kung fu, why don't you play your only role quickly!" Stannis let out a dragon roar, and Robert disappeared in fright.

Anya's laughter came from behind her, and she shook her head while wiping her tears, and it seemed that the performance of the funny duo was perfect.

Stannis blushed and stepped back, "You wait a while, I'll be back when I'm done." ”

"Well, I'll wait for you to come back!"

The lord hurried downstairs to find his allies: Hillier, Randall, and Barrow I standing at the lord's throne waiting for him.

"I'm sorry for being late. Stannis wiped away the fragrance that Anya had left on his face and greeted his guests with a cheerful tone.

None of the three responded to his enthusiasm, but only looked at him with serious faces.

Stannis chuckled, this kind of scene often means that he is going to be out of luck.

Eventually, Hillier, the beautiful man who was the core of the trio, stepped forward and said, "Sorry to disturb your appointment with the beautiful woman, Lord Justine, but you have not seen us for a whole week since you returned from that glorious and tragic expedition, and you have been missing for a few days in between. I would venture to ask: Are we still your allies?"

The last sentence was undoubtedly a forced palace, and the three guys seemed to come with great resentment, and in the face of this aggressive tone, Stannis decided to retreat and advance to wear off the other party's sharpness first.

"Have you ever had dinner, my chef's roast rabbit leg here is delicious, and you will definitely praise it. ”

Sanlu and Ergou were unmoved, but the honest bull kept nodding his head, "Okay, okay, give me a dozen first!"

Faced with the contemptuous eyes of his companion, Barrow honestly faced the wall.

"Please don't change the subject, Alliance Leader!"

Hearing this, the Alliance Lord felt comfortable from head to toe, and he decided to reveal the truth, "Do you know the reason why Duke Garcia launched this expedition this time?"

Ergou and Da Niu, two guys with relatively low political awareness, shook their heads like rattles, but Hillier, who was the wisest, pointed out the mystery in them.

"I think the ostensible purpose of this expedition is to investigate the truth about the demise of the Claude family, but the real purpose of the Duke is to gather the lords he considers to be a threat to his rule and eliminate them all with the help of external forces. ”

"How are you!" Stannis didn't expect this guy to guess the Duke's true purpose at once, and the buck's wisdom really can't be underestimated.

Hillier took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Stannis, "Actually, I also received a summons from the duke, but I don't think it's simple, just because I was busy with my fiancΓ©e's affairs. ”

"What! I already knew that things must be strange, why did you still watch me and Brother Barrow go to die!" Stannis was furious, this guy had clearly said that he would not sell himself again, why did he still hide such an important thought.

Hillier didn't mean the slightest bit of apology, he just kept his usual serious expression and said: "Because I think this is the best plan, I also reminded Barrow to find a reason to take off this summons, but his fourth brother insisted on participating in this expedition......"

"Oh, the Barrow family just didn't tell me, so what about me!" Stannis pointed at himself even more upset.

"Because I believe that for you who want to replace the Duke, even if this expedition is an obvious trap, you will not hesitate to jump down, because this is the best time to establish your prestige. Hillier's blue eyes shone with wisdom.

Without waiting for Stannis to reply, he continued, "If I'm not mistaken, this expedition was a treacherous expedition, but you also gained a large number of potential allies. ”

This guy is too smart, isn't he? He can't hide anything from his eyes, and he can not only see human nature, but also predict the direction of things. Stannis felt like he had found the perfect kobold.

"That's right, there are four lords who have joined our Eastern Alliance, but it's not convenient to reveal the names just yet, but next month we agree that there will be a secret meeting, and then you will know their names. ”

Hillier's face did not change, and he did not seem to be angry at Stannis for hiding something from him, "I know, as long as I know that we still have potential allies, then I will be more confident in putting you in the position of duke." ”

After that, he turned around and left directly, and even the second dog on the side couldn't stop him.

"Let's go, no dinner!" Stannis really couldn't understand this guy's style, if he lived in the modern age, he would be beaten up in the street for being too pretending.

But at this moment, a weak voice came from the corner.

"That...... Do you still have roast rabbits?"

After a while, Stennis was the host, and Robert was the company, and Barrow and Randall stayed to eat and drink.

There's nothing quite like having a cold drink and a barbecue around the fire in the company of the snow outside your window.

"Boss, I didn't expect you to have such an expert at cooking!" Ergou praised while nibbling on the rabbit leg.

"The wine is also very good!" the big cow raised his glass and drank all the wine that Korodov had made himself.

"Where, where, as long as the two big brothers eat and drink to their heart's content, it is my greatest honor!" Although his heart was there, Stannis still put on the appearance of a big brother.

"By the way, Da Niu, how is your brother?" asked Stannis cautiously, having been feeling guilty after Barrow IV lost a leg, and if he had been more vigilant, he could have saved more people......

Da Niu put down the cup and his expression became gloomy, "He will have to spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair in the future." ”
