"You're going to scold me!" Colin said. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
When the woman heard this, she was furious and said, "What kind of punishment are you, is this still a punishment?"
Colin smiled and said to the woman, "If you don't choose this, then there will be no punishment!"
The woman frowned, looked at Colin carefully, and found that Colin's dress was very gorgeous, not something that ordinary priests could wear, but this kid had indeed not seen it before, and she couldn't help asking, "Who is your supervisor, why haven't I seen you in the church before!"
Colin smiled and replied, "I don't have a supervisor!"
The woman was unbelieving, "Nonsense, every little priest has a supervisor, how can you not have one?"
Colin stretched out his hands and replied sincerely, "I really don't have a supervisor! I only have one teacher!"
The woman frowned and asked, "Teacher, what's your teacher's name?"
Colin replied, "My teacher's name is William!"
The woman thought for a moment, and said angrily to Colin: "Nonsense, I know all the priests in the church, who are you without this name?"
The woman was stunned for a moment and asked, "The Angel Pupil?"
Colin nodded, and the woman said in disbelief, "So you entered the palace with Cardinal Caesar?"
Colin replied as a matter of course: "Yes, I also had a meal with your emperor, in other words, your majesty can really eat!"
The woman shouted angrily, "How dare you sarcastically mock Your Majesty!"
Anne on the side could have heard it in a fog, but as soon as Colin's words came out, she was also frightened, pointed at Colin and said, "Colin...... This is...... It's a big ...... No... Respect!" Her tone was intermittent, and it was obvious how scared she was!
Colin said indifferently: "What I said is the truth, Your Majesty also made me a baron!"
The woman sneered: "Nonsense, how can such a big thing as a knighthood be done casually by His Majesty, and you can make it up more reliably!"
Colin nodded and said seriously, "Really, it's the court baron!"
The woman is a little convinced now, the court baron has an unpopular title, there is no fief at all, it is just a false name, which is very likely.
The woman pondered for a moment and said, "Since you are a student of His Excellency William, forget about this matter, and you can go!"
Colin smiled and said, "Thank you, eldest sister, I am so grateful to you! I hope to see you next time I enter the palace!"
After saying that, he smiled and saluted, turned around and pulled Anne to leave.
The woman then spoke again, "Wait!" Colin turned around in confusion and thought to himself, "What else are you going to do, you won't have to go back!"
The woman pointed to Anne and said, "You can leave, but she must come with me!"
Anne's legs immediately went limp, and she would have sat on the ground without Collin's support.
Colin smiled and pleaded with the woman: "Eldest sister, it was really not her hand, it was me!"
The woman nodded, and said in a calm tone, "I know, but she must stay!" She looked at the puzzled expressions of Colin and explained, "After all, you injured the princess's maid, and I have to give an explanation to the princess!"
Colin asked, "What confession?"
The woman sighed and said, "The princess has no choice but to punish her!"
Colin said angrily: "It's none of her business, what are you punishing her for?"
The woman said helplessly: "After all, you injured the princess's maid, the princess must be unhappy, and there must be a scapegoat to relieve the princess's anger!"
Colin said flatteringly: "Eldest sister, you see that I am also a nobleman of Flang, can you give me a face!"
The woman thought to herself: What kind of nobleman are you, the court baron, but if you were really a baron, it would be easy to do it, just kill it! But behind this kid you is the church, and you are still a disciple of a cardinal in the correctional center, this is not easy to do.
Thinking of this, the woman refused Colin and said, "You go quickly, this is our palace business, and it has nothing to do with you!"
Colin turned to look at Anne, the little girl was already stunned, just looked at Colin blankly, Colin gritted his teeth, and said to the woman, "No! I can't give the little girl to you!"
The woman frowned at this time, and said with an angry face: "Hey, don't go too far, I'm giving His Excellency William face, and you don't deserve to bargain with me!"
Colin said angrily: "I don't care who you give face, in short, you can't punish this child!" Colin said resolutely, the woman was stunned for a moment, and then sneered: "You really think of yourself as a character!"
At this time, a voice came: "Colin, Cardinal Caesar and His Excellency William are ready to leave, let's hurry over!"
The voice fell, and the Grand Steward came over with a large group of people, and the Grand Steward urged Colin with a smile on his face, as if he had no idea what was going on here.
Colin smiled and said to the Grand Steward, "Your Excellency, can you please do me a favor?"
The Grand Steward looked at Colin with a sneer and asked, "What's wrong?"
Colin smiled and pulled Anne to his side, smiling at the Grand Steward, "This is my new friend, can you help me take care of her?"
The chief manager thought to himself: You kid is really welcome, but this little girl has a way, and she can catch up with you after a while.
While the chief steward was groaning, the woman shouted, "Chief steward, this child has wounded Princess Serena's maid!"
The chief steward didn't seem to hear the woman's shout, and said to Colin with a smile: "Don't worry, I will take care of your little friend!" After speaking, he gave a look to one person next to him, and the two attendants left with Anne, and the chief steward smiled and took Colin forward, and the woman was anxious when she saw it, and shouted: "Boss, this matter can't be counted like this!"
The chief steward didn't look back, but a waiter behind him walked up to the woman, and slapped the woman in the face expressionlessly, the woman covered her face and looked at the waiter, and said in surprise: "You dare to hit me!" The waiter slapped her backhand again, the woman was completely beaten, she just wanted to scream, two guards directly clamped her, one of them covered her mouth, and the waiter waved his hand impatiently to signal the guards to take her away.
Colin followed behind the chief steward, and had a wireless admiration for the chief steward, in the face of this strong woman, the chief steward was not even interested in talking to her, and it was useless for the woman to mention Her Royal Highness the princess, and even without giving an order, someone directly slapped the woman, which is the real power.
How did Colin know that the fifty-year-old chief steward in front of him had been serving His Majesty Louis for more than 30 years, and his deep favor of His Majesty Louis could be said to be under one person in the entire imperial city, above 100,000 people, not to mention such a high-level maid, sometimes he didn't even give face to the prince and princess, and even the crown prince showed respect when he saw him.
Colin followed the archsteward to the carriage, Cardinal Caesar and William both expressed their gratitude to the archsteward, Colin secretly stuffed a magic crystal card into the archsteward's clothes, the archsteward seemed to feel it, he glanced at Colin funny, Caesar seemed to be holding back his smile, but William couldn't bear to look directly, and directly helped Cardinal Caesar to get into the car.
Colin thanked the Grand Steward, "Your Excellency, thank you for today!"
The chief steward couldn't help but smile when he looked at Colin with a serious expression, nodded at Colin and said, "We'll meet again in the future!"
When the carriage slowly drove out of the gate of the imperial city, the chief steward was just curious to take out the card that Corinther had given him, but when he looked at the denomination, he was stunned for a moment, and thought: This kid is not stingy!
William in the carriage counted down Colin: "You kid is so bold that you dare to bribe the chief executive! Don't you want to die?" Caesar also looked at Colin with a funny expression.
Colin asked puzzledly, "What's the matter, teacher, don't you give him a card too?"
William said solemnly, "Can you compare with me? I am courting him on behalf of the church correctional center, who do you represent?"
Colin said with a hippie smile: "Teacher, didn't that majesty give me a baron, of course I have to stammer with the nobles in the imperial city!" William said disdainfully to Colin: "It's just a court baron, you really take it seriously!"
Colin was puzzled and said, "Teacher, the baron is already a big man in my hometown!"
William explained: "That's a hereditary baron, with a fief and inheritance, and it's not the same thing as your court title!"
Colin suddenly realized, it turned out that he was useless as a court baron, no wonder the woman didn't take herself seriously at all! Colin couldn't help but feel a little lost when he thought of this.
William smiled again and said: "This palace title is not just given to people, it is also paid a monthly salary!"
As soon as Colin heard that there was money, he immediately became energetic, and hurriedly asked, "Really? How many gold coins are there every month!"
William and Caesar both looked at each other and smiled, William stretched out five fingers, and Colin shouted happily, "Really? Five thousand gold coins a month!"
William laughed and scolded, "What do you think of a good thing!
Colin said with some frustration: "It turns out that there are only five hundred gold coins, so it's okay to make do!"
William couldn't bear to tell him, "No!"
Colin was disappointed and said resentfully: "It's only fifty gold coins a month, how can you do anything!"
William sighed and said, "It's fifty gold coins, but it's only sent once a year!"
Colin's tears fell when he heard this, and he exaggerated and shouted: "It's only fifty gold coins a year, and I'm going to ask for food!"
William smiled and explained: "Fifty gold coins is a lot, and many Flange families can't spend fifty gold coins a year!"
Colin was completely disappointed with the title, William looked at him lifelessly, and said dissatisfiedly: "Isn't this title also picked up by you for nothing?
