Chapter 6: Poor Arrogance
No one could have predicted this. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Alfred was attacked, the count was killed in battle, and his only male heir was also seriously injured and completely reduced to the living dead, this is a well-known thing in the wasteland, so what is going on with this young Alfred at the helm right now? The heir of Alfred, who had been called the first of the next generation of the wasteland, overlapped with the pale boy in a wheelchair in front of them, and they finally realized that the living dead who had been badly injured and could not wake up had miraculously awakened and appeared here.
This is a surprising thing.
"It seems that the contempt for Alfred during this time is indeed a conceited sin. ”
The nobles' expressions gradually became complicated, as if they were a little annoyed that they did not know the news that Alfred's first heir in line had awakened for the first time.
However, chagrin to annoyance, accident to accident, to say that the sudden awakening of Alfred's male heir would make them feel jealous, it is really not true.
Even if a docile and cute little sheep suddenly grows a pair of horns and becomes a baby goat, how much impact and how much damage can it cause?
That's pretty much what Alfred is doing right now.
Marquis Sauron quickly adjusted his mood and expression, his eyes flashed with surprise when he looked at the young man in the wheelchair, and his tone was also slightly excited: "This must be a gift from the Lord, thank you, Augustus, it is great that you can recover, and your father in heaven must be gratified." ”
The words are very beautiful, but if you are really surprised and excited, then not to mention getting up and giving a hug, at least a little away from the chair will not seem more sincere?
It's really stingy that even perfunctory will save the effort to the greatest extent.
Augustus smiled slightly at the Marquis of Sauron, but did not speak, because Elizabeth, who was lying on his lap at this time, gradually calmed down and raised her head, Augustus naturally preferred to pay attention to his sister than to focus on this group of noble lords who clearly wanted to send him Alfred to hell. He looked at Elizabeth's reddened eyes that had stopped crying, and then met the shocking blood on the corners of her lips, Augustus was a little distressed, he carefully took out a white handkerchief from his arms, refused Elizabeth's stop, he carefully wiped off the blood, and then he did not casually stuff the handkerchief back into his pocket, but solemnly folded the handkerchief, and finally put it in his arms.
No one knew why he had behaved in such a perverse way, including Elizabeth.
After doing this series of actions, Augustus finally smiled at his sister, he pinched Elizabeth's delicate and cute little face, and said with a smile: "Then leave everything to my brother, Elizabeth, no matter what I do and what decision I make in the end, will you unswervingly agree with my decision?"
Her eyes regained her brightness, and Elizabeth, who had relieved herself of the heavy burden on her immature shoulders, still had half the image of the little count of Alfred, she was a 15-year-old girl at this time.
She did not hesitate and nodded heavily, as if the eyes of the crescent moon were extraordinarily bright.
Nothing could be more beautiful than her smile.
Augustus finally let go of his worries about his sister, he smiled and rubbed Elizabeth's long hair, and without warning he muttered, "This should be Alfred's little princess." ”
......
In fact, not much time has passed, but in the current environment and atmosphere, it is naturally impossible for adults to generously give Alfred's two siblings too much patience, and the first to speak is Count Francis, Sauron's most loyal ally, since he saw that Marquis Sauron did not have the slightest tolerance for this sudden arrival of Alfred's male heir, he naturally said directly to Augustus: " While we are truly pleased with your recovery, Augustus, you have interfered with the normal progress of the meeting. Now that you've seen Elizabeth, can you stay out of the way and wait for the meeting to end? You know, these people in the room have the title of earl or first in line to the earl, and you should know that Elizabeth has inherited Alfred's earldom while you are sleeping. ”
The subconscious implication is that Augustus doesn't even qualify for this room.
Elizabeth, who had already gotten up, frowned and was about to speak, but she felt her hand being quietly held, and her absolute belief in her brother finally made her choose to be silent.
Augustus looked at Count Francis, not surprised by the count's desire to drive him out, after all, prudence is a virtue, and if you can make the chance of an accident happening zero, you will definitely not let the accident have a 1% chance, which is also what Augustus approves. But he couldn't understand, according to the attitude shown by Count Francis at this time, coupled with his understanding of Francis in the carriage, he was very puzzled why Count Francis was so keen to play the role of the Marquis of Sauron's doglegs?
He motioned for the old butler behind him to leave, an occasion that was not suitable for a housekeeper to stay.
Then, when Elizabeth took the initiative to push the wheelchair for him, he walked in the direction of the end of the large round table of the conference, without looking at the somewhat ugly face of Count Francesson, and said softly: "If I am not mistaken, the rules of the Sauron Council clearly state that in addition to having the title of earl, the helm of an earl's mansion is also eligible to attend the meeting. I'm sure you haven't forgotten to introduce myself in such a short period of time, and I don't mind repeating it again - I'm Alfred at the helm. ”
He appeared at the end of the round table of the conference, and finally met Francis's ugly face and smiled, "Don't deliberately arrange a chair for me, you see, I brought it myself." ”
It's humorous.
Marquis Sauron stopped Francis's anger with his eyes, he smiled at Augustus opposite, in fact, with a mature and handsome face, he did have a sense of majesty and justice when he smiled, and he said: "That's true, Elizabeth is still a little girl, and it would be more appropriate for Augustus to attend the meeting on behalf of Alfred, so Augustus, is it necessary to repeat to you the decisions we have discussed at the meeting?"
Augustus waved his hand casually.
He didn't look at the Marquis of Sauron who was talking to him at all, but just looked at the adults on both sides of the round table of the meeting, and he said casually: "No, just give me a copy of the meeting minutes." ”
Rude and arrogant.
Marquis Sauron narrowed his eyes slightly, but then regained his smile, said a word, and nodded to the clerk at the round table of the conference.
He certainly wouldn't mind Augustus' impudence, and believed that no one in the room would mind the arrogance of this so-called Alfred at the helm.
Because it's really not necessary.
What is the need to deal with these things with a poor child who is trying to childishly defend his last pride before the abyss of despair?
