"Father, have you already decided?" A room, Frederick looked at the Duke of Rizland with some surprise.

"What did I decide?" Duke Rizlan glanced at him.

"It seems a bit unruly to arrange for Count Dortmund and his sister to meet in the courtyard." Frederick laughed.

Duke Rizlan snorted coldly and said: "That's not because of the two of you, none of you let me worry, your sister doesn't care, the two escapes from the castle are because of the young man from Count Dortmund, if the first time is just curiosity, then forget it, but what about the second time, knowing that it is not safe, she still escaped from the castle without hesitation, and you?" All day long, I always think about what to match. ”

"That can't be helped, after all, my sister she really likes, and the Count of Dortmund is also a talented young man, isn't he?" Frederick smirked.

"I admit it, he is indeed a talented young man, and it has only been a few years that he has changed from the second son of a knight to an earl, and a powerful earl, but if it weren't for this, would I have allowed him to meet Natalie?" Duke Rizlan sighed.

In this era, whether the daughter of a noble family really likes her husband is not the most important thing, but whether they are a good match, or in other words, whether marrying this husband can bring her enough happiness and security.

Duke Rizlan likes his daughter very much, and of course he is willing to respect his daughter's wishes, but he can't let his daughter choose those who have no future and will only eat and wait for death, or say that there are no people, only those who are self-motivated. It's about the prestige of the Rizranburg family, and it's about his daughter's future.

And now the appearance of Carl perfectly solves his worries, this is a young man who his daughter likes, is self-motivated and has enough potential, and even if he is not self-motivated and potential, for now, he has enough value. And he can see that it proves that young people also have feelings for their daughters, not to mention gratitude or what, it doesn't matter, what feelings are in this era, it will naturally become family love or something after getting along for a long time, as long as there are these feelings as the foundation, then his daughter's life must be relatively happy, and he is not worried that his daughter will be bullied, after all, his Duke Rizland's deterrent power is not fake.

"Frederick, my son, I ask you to find out to me who the people who ambushed the Count of Dortmund are, and who instructed them, this is very important, it is related to the prestige of our Rizlandberg family, a feudal who cannot protect the lives of his vassals will not be respected, besides, since we have chosen the Count of Dortmund, then we must help him eliminate some hostile forces, whether it is for ourselves or for your sister, this matter is very serious." Duke Rizlan said solemnly, although they rescued the Count of Dortmund in time, he still knew that many nobles were talking behind their backs, and the impact of this matter could not disappear after rescuing the Count of Dortmund, and he had to do something about it.

"Yes!" Frederick knew the gravity of the matter.

"Okay, you go down first, go and supervise tonight's banquet, tonight's banquet, I don't want anything to happen." Duke Rizlan said with a wave of his hand.

……

"Inside the earl, inside is the courtyard, and Her Royal Highness the princess is inside." The two maids stepped aside and made a gesture of please.

"Okay." Karl nodded, and walked in, only he didn't notice that the two maids had been smiling.

"Poofha...... I wonder how Her Royal Highness will react when she sees the Earl? A maid covered her mouth and smiled.

"That expression must be wonderful, it's a pity I don't dare to look at it." Another maid responded.

Carl would have been stunned if he had heard their conversation, which revealed a very basic message, that is, Natalie had no idea that he was coming, and no one had informed her.

"It's so good, Lord Earl is handsome and martial, young and promising, if I change it, I will definitely not be able to keep it." At first, the maid had stars in her eyes.

"Come on, little wave, the Earl will not take a fancy to you, and if you dare to say this, do you believe that Her Royal Highness will tear your mouth apart?"

"Can't you just not interrupt my fantasies?" She puffed out her face and put on an angry look.

Fortunately, Carl has gone far away, and suddenly heard these conversations, he will be embarrassed to the point of embarrassment, in fact, to say a fair word, although he looks okay, but it is only a little higher in the horizon, if you want to say what handsome Shenwu, the appearance is extraordinary, that is really looking for the wrong person, of course, more often the so-called handsome Shenwu, extraordinary appearance, that is directly linked to the second half of the sentence of the young and promising, no matter which world, which era, young and promising, can always make a person's appearance out of thin air a few points.

But even if he knew about Carl, he didn't care, he only cared more about the people in the courtyard now.

Walking into the garden, this is a different world, into the cluster of flowers, flowers, there are many types of flowers, roses, carnations, moon season...... There are many Carls who can't even name them, and it can be seen that Princess Natalie is very fond of flowers.

This large variety of neat and beautiful flowers add a noble and beautiful color to the whole garden, yes, it is noble, these flowers that were not rare in the previous life, in this day and age are not so cheap to buy, there is no doubt that such a garden is not anything else, these flowers are considered to be very valuable.

"Ding-dong......"

The sound of a clear spring was pleasant, but it was accompanied by the ripples in the waterhole in the middle of the courtyard, and on the edge of the waterhole, a woman sat on a carved stone with various patterns, and she put her feet into the waterhole and stirred it gently, and the water in the waterhole was gently beating her.

She picked out a rose beside her, sniffed it, her eyes slowly closed, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing a slight smile, and it could be seen that she was enjoying the moment.

Such a picture is simply too beautiful, Carl froze in place, he was faintly stunned.

"Ahem......" But it was not polite to look at others like this, and he coughed lightly to indicate his presence.

"Who?" Natalie was like a frightened white rabbit, startled, and then hurriedly looked over to Carl.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, it's me." Karl bent slightly.

"Ah, Lord Count, why are you here?"

Seeing Carl's face clearly, Natalie looked a little confused, and her hands like jade lotus roots didn't know where to put them.

Carl couldn't hold back a soft laugh for a while, this look is really cute.

It's good that he doesn't laugh, but his smile directly makes Natalie blush.

"I'm here to express my gratitude to you, I've asked your father for permission, but I didn't expect him to tell you."

"The old man is too much, and he won't even talk to me about such a thing." Hearing Carl's words, Natalie pursed her lips and grumbled dissatisfied.

"Maybe your father forgot, after all, the Duke has so many things to deal with."

Natalie is not an introverted person after all, and after a few clicks, she grabbed Carl to chat with him, talking about everything as small as the life of a commoner in the territory, and as big as the meeting with other big nobles, and she was even more curious, it was nothing more than Carl's experience over the years, mainly the performance on the battlefield and things on the battlefield, he was very interested in these things, and he couldn't help but be a little embarrassed when chatting about Carl.

"Your Royal Highness, perhaps I need to correct one thing to you, war is not beautiful, and most people do not want to recognize its magnificence."

"yes......" Natalie blinked.

Karl was a little helpless, after all, everything the princess had heard about the war had come from the mouths of those bards, who could not have described a scene too bloody, they could only describe the magnificence.

As if sensing that Karl was reluctant to talk about it anymore, Nadali shifted the conversation to the flowerbeds in her courtyard.

The boy and the girl sat at the bottom of the courtyard, telling each other about their life experiences and their preferences, and Carl enjoyed the moment very much, and he himself was a little incredible, immersed in the courtyard for the first time, and it was like this.

Carl thought that the first thing he would do when he met Natalie would be to ask her about the necklace before, but when he actually met the other person, he didn't have any idea of what he wanted, and the other party didn't seem to have the idea of taking the initiative to bring it up, and the necklace seemed to disappear.

Of course, this is not an escape or anything, maybe this necklace is no longer needed.

"Lord Earl, the banquet is about to begin, and Lord Duke asked me to take you to the banquet." After chatting for I don't know how long, a maid walked in and said respectfully.

"Oh, okay." Carl nodded, then looked at Natalie again.

"Then Your Royal Highness Princess, I will be absent first."

When Carl left, the courtyard fell silent again, except for the sound of the clear spring.

This time the banquet was not important, Carl came more with the purpose of getting to know other nobles, and after the Duke of Rizland introduced several great noble vassals, the banquet officially began.

Karl would not have been embarrassed by the fact that he had not met anyone at this meeting, for he had met the Earl of Charles, and in a sense, both of them were actually younger, and the two of them had a somewhat pleasant conversation at such a banquet.
