The female lord counted the days, Li Yu should be back tonight, so she didn't have the heart to do anything else in the afternoon.

After dealing with a dispute over the spoils of war with one of his generals, she was about to slip away, but she was about to leave on the front foot, and on the back foot, she saw a guard come and report that Goldfinger Romero had come to see her.

Miss Rabbit is surprised that Romero had been in Rock Snow City, helping her aunt Alyssa and great-grandmother Ona manage the city.

After all, it was once the domain of the Figuerola family, and even if she had occupied it now, it would take time for the locals to fully approve of it.

When she heard that Romero was looking for her, Ilea thought it was something that had happened in Rock Snow City.

But she had just contacted Alisa on the Shuangxiu Church radio yesterday, when Rock Snow City was generally stable, and Romero should have been out of the city a long time ago.

Miss Rabbit couldn't figure it out, so she stopped thinking about it, and waited for Romero to say it herself.

The treasurer looked like a dusty man, he should have come all the way, he hadn't rested much in between, his face was tanned a lot, and his clothes were full of dust, but after entering the door, he still saluted the girl first.

"Lord Elia."

"Sir Romero."

"I've heard that the war is going well, and it looks like you'll be able to reclaim the entire Westland."

The female lord nodded, "This is the result of everyone's heroic efforts, and the dragons and Italian cannons of the Shuangxiu Sect and the three-eyed birds have also helped a lot. ”

"Then in a few days, you will be able to announce to the entire continent that you have become the new master of this continent."

"Well, let's wait for Prophet Merlin to come back, and there's no hurry in this matter anyway, Sir Romero, aren't you just here to ask me when the war will end?"

Romero pondered for a moment and then said, "My visit this time is indeed related to the current war. ”

Ilea raised an eyebrow, quietly waiting for his next step.

"An old man asked me if you could spare Ilkander and his warriors."

"Old man, what old man?"

"Sir Leo, who you've dealt with a few times before."

"Leo? That guy is still alive. Miss Rabbit was a little surprised, for after the fall of Lionheart, she had heard that the rest of the Vespersian family had been executed by the Wingers, except for Garth's wife and daughter, had escaped.

Romero said, "Sir Leo found a place to hide a week before the city was breached, and the Wing-Clan couldn't catch him, and there was nothing they could do, oh yes, he also saved Lord Claudio." ”

"Mistress Claudio is still alive too?" The female lord was really shocked this time.

Claudio was the second son of Edward II and the younger brother of the Emperor's reigning emperor, Gars, and had the bloodline of the Vespasian family.

Ilea was no longer the political novice she had been before, her head turned quickly, and she blurted out as she remembered the information that Gabriel had revealed during her previous interrogation.

"Second Son."

After hearing these three words, Romero's face also changed slightly, "You...... Heard of the Second Son League? ”

"I know that Leo is a member of the Second League," said Ilea, "so Claudio has joined the Second League, and the Second League wants to push him out as the new Emperor, and what about you, are you also a member of the Second League, Sir Romero." ”

Romero nodded and said frankly, "I did join the Second Son League, just four years ago. ”

"But I remember that you were your father's firstborn."

"Not all the second sons in the league are second sons." Romero said, "This mysterious organization was originally established to help the second sons improve their situation, and the core members are the second sons of the twelve families.

"But when they unite the forces of their second sons, they are already very influential, and they are attractive enough for small and medium-sized nobles like me.

"If the Second Sub-League wants to continue to grow and develop, it is necessary to attract more fresh blood to help them, and we joined the Second Sub-League at that time, but our status in the organization is not as high as that of the first batch of people.

"Did Hulse introduce you to you?" Ilea asked.

"That's right." Romero didn't hide it, "Lord Hulse is an important member of the organization. ”

"Is he your leader?"

"No one knows who the leader of the Second Child League is, he has been hiding in the shadows, observing everything, planning everything, Leo is the liaison, responsible for contacting everyone and conveying his orders."

"Ilkand is also a member of the Second Son's Alliance?"

Romero nodded, then shook his head again, "For security reasons, most of the members of the Second Sub-Alliance don't know each other's identities, and I don't know if Ilkand is a member of the organization.

"I just got an order to save him as much as I can, that's why I'm in such a hurry to find you."

However, after learning the ins and outs, the female lord said, "I can't let him go, he is the murderer of the Marquis of Kulen." ”

Ilkander said that it was a misunderstanding, that they were besieged in the valley by the dwarves, and that the Marquis of Cullen offered to ask Ilkander to kill him as evidence of his loyalty.

"After gaining the trust of the dwarves, Ilkand left the Dragonspine Mountains to warn you and your reinforcements not to fall into the dwarves' trap.

"But in the end he and you missed it in the mountains."

Miss Rabbit couldn't help but be a little moved when she heard this, and she was in awe of the courage and determination of the Marquis of Cullen at that time.

After a moment she asked, "Does Ilkander have any proof?" ”

"No, given the situation at the time, it is impossible for him to leave any evidence, otherwise it is likely that those dwarves will find out, and not only will he die himself, but he will not be able to bring the news out of the Dragon's Back Mountain Range again."

The female lord touched her chin, "You said that Garin seems to have mentioned it to me, she said that Ilkander is not like a person who would betray the glory of knights.

"But I can't just let Ilkand go for his words, after all, many people saw that he murdered the Marquis of Cullen at the time."

Romero also understood that it would be difficult to clear the name of Ilkander, so he added, "The Second League wants to make a deal with you. ”

"What deal? I'm not short of money right now. Ilea said.

"It's not money, it's a sure thing that you'll become Lord of the West, but there may still be people who make a fuss about your identity.

"If you are willing to spare Ilkand, then Claudio can make you Lord of the Westlands in the name of the Vespasian family, so that you and your family can rightfully live in the West."
