Chapter 153: My Sister's Choice
Lance said with a solemn face: "Do you know that your happiness is exchanged for sacrificing your sister's happiness for the rest of her life?"
"My sister, how could it be?" Isabella wondered. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Lance walked to the front of the map of the continent of Evevineia that hung in the tent, looked at the map and said, "Not to mention that your escape from marriage will make the Duchy of Idiris lose its ally as the Marquis of Gardestaire, just in the face of the Triple Alliance of the Duchy of Eagle Gang, the Duchy of Monslor, and the Duchy of Southern Lanska, the military strength of Idiris is already very reluctant. I think you know this better than I do. And as the commander of the three armies of Idris, your sister Eve has undoubtedly become the cusp. With strong enemies on the outside and no allies on the inside, how do you think your sister will spend the next few decades?"
Isabella retorted, "As long as there is a threat from the demons, the civil war of Idris will not be easily fought. My sister can just deter them by force. ”
"Really?" said Lance disapprovingly, "if you flee, Idris will surely lose an ally, Gardstere." Another ally, the Kingdom of Normanland, was in a civil war at this time, and fundamentally helped to help Idris. So Idiris, who had no allies at all. Therefore, whether it is against the demons or against the Eagle Gang Three Kingdoms Alliance, your father Aceh will look for new allies. What do you think your father would do?"
Princess Isabella thought for a moment, and suddenly her face was startled, and she didn't stand still for a while, and staggered back in the chair behind her. She said in a trembling voice, "Father will definitely ask Eve to marry Linton, the second prince of Hitivit, in order to seek an alliance with the kingdom of Hitivite, in order to find an ally. And what Eve hates the most is that Hitivit playboy. ”
Lance smiled with relief and walked silently out of the tent.
At this time, Princess Isabella hurriedly stopped Lance and asked eagerly: "Your Excellency Lance, I know that you are a resourceful person, can you think of a way to get the best of both worlds?"
Lance turned his head slightly, and just said: "The opportunity for happiness always has to be snatched from the hands of others. Princess Isabella, your happiness and your sister's happiness can only choose one or the other. See for yourself. And I, on the other hand, am nothing more than a commoner in Menise. ”
With that, Lance stepped out of the tent. Isabella was left to think alone.
When everyone saw Lance walk out, everyone looked nervously. Whether it is Eve or Woodrow, everyone knows that the only person who can influence Princess Isabella at this time is this little-known, but mysterious red-eyed boy.
Eve hurriedly walked over and asked, "Lance, what did my sister talk to you about?"
Lance smiled and said, "Just discussed your experience and her going." ”
When they heard "her going", both Woodrow and Eve clenched their fists nervously.
Then Isabella stepped out of the tent with a heavy expression on her face. Everyone was silent, just quietly watching Isabella's every move.
Isabella lowered her head, bit her lip lightly, and then sighed deeply and said, "I, Isabella, thank you all for working so hard for my things. I'm here to bow to all of you. ”
With that, Isabella bowed deeply.
Seeing Isabella's bow, all the soldiers and attendants hurriedly fell down on one knee and shouted, "Your Highness Princess, please don't do this! ”
Isabella then glanced at Woodrow with tears of anguish in her eyes and said, "I have decided to return to Idiris with Eve to complete my wedding to the son of the Marquis of Gardstere." ”
When they heard the news, everyone was shocked. Only Lance seemed to know the result.
"Why? Isabella!" Woodrow broke down at this time, as a general, a man, at this time, tears flowed down his unwilling cheeks: "We have planned for this day for three years, and we have paid incomparable effort, patience and pain. Why give up?"
Isabella just said with tears in her eyes, like a flower frustrated by autumn frost, "I'm sorry, Woodrow, I failed you." But I have a last resort. Please forgive me. ”
At this time, Isabella burst into tears, wiped her tears, turned her head and ran out. Eve and Woodrow wanted to catch up at the same time. But Woodrow's path was blocked by Lance's reach. Before Woodrow could react, Eve had already caught up.
Enraged, Woodrow tried to rush past Lance's obstruction, but was forced back by Lance with his broken sword.
Woodrow drew his sword and stabbed Lance, but suddenly Woodrow felt a heat in his ear, and a raging flame swept across Woodrow's cheek. The flames were only a centimeter away from Woodrow's cheek. Woodrow's afterglow swept to the flames spat out of Lance's white dragon Loxani. And Woodrow also understood that this flame of Roxani was a warning to Woodrow not to go near Lance.
Woodrow hurriedly took a step back, his pupils glowing with fire looking at Lance and saying, "What exactly did you say to Isabella?"
Lance looked at the direction in which the two sisters had disappeared and said, "I'm just so she won't feel guilty in the future." ”
Woodrow scolded, "What are you? Letting Isabella marry Gardsteil will ruin her lifelong happiness and love!"
"Happiness and love?" said Lance with a contemptuous laugh, "Princess Isabella knows in her own heart what kind of happiness she needs. As for love, only when love becomes family affection, when lovers become husband and wife who love each other, then there will be true happiness in love. You'll figure it out sooner or later, General Woodrow. ”
"Understood, I just want to kill you now!"
"Kill me, I tell you, Isabella's happiness and love, including your own love, are not in your hands, nor in my hands anymore, but in Eve's hands. Looking at Woodrow, who was menacing and ready to attack him at any time, Lance still maintained a calm and disdainful smile:
"Let's make a bet. Wait a minute, not only will you not kill me, but you may thank me. ”
When Woodrow heard this, although he felt inexplicable in his heart, he felt that Lance did not say it casually. And Woodrow felt that Lance always gave him an inexplicable sense of trust. It seems that Lance is confident in everything.
Woodrow, though reluctant, put away his sword and ordered his soldiers and attendants to rest and wait.
And Lance, too, watched the sunset in the distance. He was anxiously waiting for the final result.
