Hubert's thoughts were interrupted by the sound of horses' hooves at the door, and his father had finally returned. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

When Viscount Brut entered the door, he saw Hubert sitting there, and he exclaimed with joy, "I didn't expect you to succeed, and it was when I wasn't around. It reminds me of when you were a child, when you didn't even dare to speak in front of others. It seems that you have really grown in the years you have been in Prague, and it seems that my decision to send you there was indeed the right one!"

Hubert didn't raise his head and said, "Yes, for me, this is the best decision you have made in your life." ”

After saying this, Hubert continued to keep his head down, and Viscount Brut could not tell from his face what he was thinking.

But now it was at least evident that Hubert was in a bad mood at the moment, so Viscount Brut tried to ask: "You don't seem to be very happy, haven't we succeeded today? At least we have succeeded on the side of the victors, and our family will surely be more brilliant in the future." ”

Hubert couldn't agree with this sentence anymore, after all, Duke Regino had promised that he would become an earl when the mission was completed. But just now he thought back to the Knight of Hosa, and he felt sad about it. He thought that a heartless person like him would never be sad for anyone else, but for some reason, he would be sad and regretful when he thought of the Knight of Hosa.

Hubert said depressedly, "It's nothing, I just think of the Knight of Hosa, my mentor." So it's just a little sad. ”

Viscount Brut patted him on the shoulder comfortingly and sat down next to him.

"I thought you wouldn't pay much attention to it, but I didn't expect you to keep it in mind all along. Yes, Jossa is a good man, I have known him since I was a child and watched him fight his way through the peaceful region as a commoner and become a nobleman. If it weren't for that, I wouldn't have handed you over to him. Although he was a commoner, he was more like a nobleman than many nobles. He has always had his own persistence and belief, and I thought he would be more successful in the future, but I didn't expect him to die in a place like Prague like this. ”

Speaking of Hosa, Viscount Brut also felt a lot of emotion. How he wanted to say thank you to the man who saved his child, if it weren't for him, Hubert, who was stupidly standing on the front line, would have died at the hands of the elves.

Hubert barely pulled a smile at the corner of his mouth, and he diverted the topic: "Let's not talk about these sad topics, after the end of the council today, the Duke of Regino personally came to me. ”

"I've got you in person!" Brut opened his mouth in surprise, the Knight of Hossa or something had already been thrown out of the clouds.

He hurriedly asked: "A big man like him actually found you directly, so what is the matter with him looking for you? It won't be bad news, if so, don't tell me." ”

Hearing such news, Brut first thought to the bad side. After all, he was not there at the time, but only listened to the nobles who had returned from the council to discuss the matter. Although these nobles said that Hubert behaved very well, made the king give up the Praetorian Guard directly, and made the stubborn Count Luson angry enough, but who knows if Hubert said anything that made Duke Regino angry. Coupled with Hubert's expression as soon as he returned home, although it was because of Hosa, Viscount Brut still felt that he had no bottom in his heart.

Hubert looked at his worried father, smiled slightly, and said, "How can it be a bad thing, it's you who are too worried." The Duke of Regino has a very important task entrusted to me this time. ”

Viscount Brut couldn't help but think of the passage in the novel, this kind of ghost mission is often a mortal mission, and he asked Hubert in a trembling voice: "That...... You said yes?"

Hubert looked at his father with a worried look, and immediately guessed what he was thinking, and he quickly explained: "Yes, of course this kind of good thing must be agreed." Don't worry, I've already asked, it's definitely not going to be a death mission, Duke Regino has assured me. ”

Viscount Brut breathed a sigh of relief, what if this stupid boy indiscriminately agreed to someone else's task to send him to death.

"Although the Duke of Regino secretly uses small means, it is said that he never deceives people in such matters, and he has never broken the promise of promises. Because of this, so many nobles trusted him and joined his camp. Tell me what exactly is this task asking you to do, and what are the benefits after you do it?" asked Viscount Brut expectantly. After all, the risk is gone, and the next time is the net profit, and it's time to look at the gains.

Hubert said, "He asked me to be the chief attendant of the king's side when he went out on his expedition, so as to keep an eye on the king." My only concern is what to do if the king turns his face and kills me. As for the reward, you may not believe it, but the Duke of Regino promised me that I would be promoted to earl when I got the job done. ”

After saying this, Hubert stopped, and he waited to see his father's surprised expression.

Sure enough, Viscount Brut looked like he saw the sow on the tree, and said in disbelief: "Uncle...... I'm not kidding, I've just become a viscount, how could he say that!Wait, after this expedition, the emperor will be done, and then he will have to trouble the opposition, and there will be a lot of space on it! Oh my God, this must be true! Hubert, we're on the thighs this time...... It's not a golden thigh!"

At first, Hubert thought that Duke Regino was just fooling himself, and that the title was so easy to rise. Besides, he doesn't have a title yet, but he is just the heir to a title. But now I hear my father analyze it...... I think there really makes some sense! This kind of thing is still easier for experienced people to analyze and get results.

"Then father, you said, what do I have to pay attention to on this mission, I won't really think like I think, the king will just click me!" Hubert hurriedly asked the old driver, this is a test tube matter for his own safety.

Brut also gradually calmed down, he analyzed for a while, and slowly spoke:

"You don't have to worry at all, you'll be fine. First of all, you will certainly not be the main person to spy on the king, and all you have to do is attract the king's attention and let the real watchers steal the secrets. Secondly, the king will not kill you, and he must know that you are a miscellaneous fish. After all, you joined halfway, and it was certainly impossible for him not to have this idea. Killing you is not good for him, it means that he will turn his face with Regino in advance, which will not be good for him. Your most dangerous moment should be when Duke Regino is about to kill the king. ”
