At the same time that the young priest sent by the church was in contact with Sinampe and others, Angus also rode a fast horse to the town of Aliai.

I don't know whether to say that he was stupid and bold or that he was indeed a complete madman, and when he came to the king's territory, he brought no army with him, and only a few dozen attendants followed him.

Although these dozens of close servants have combat ability, this courage is no longer something that ordinary people can have...... The average person's thought after receiving the king's letter is to sit at home and wait for the king to send his daughter to the door.

However, the king did not show much surprise at Angus's personal arrival.

Maybe it's because he's really good at cultivating qi, or maybe he's very accurate at seeing people.

Crown Prince Huge accompanied his father and received the sole heir to the powerful principality.

Angus knelt down on one knee according to his usual style, and greeted him madly: "Oh, Your Majesty, we haven't seen each other for a while, I didn't expect you to be so old." Tsk, it's heartbreaking. ”

"Blessed with that war. The king coughed twice, "It is true that the body is not as good as before, but this broken body is still more than enough to govern the country." ”

Then Angus turned his gaze back to Hugue: "Oh, oh, my dear ......"

"Well, let that be dispensed with, Monsieur Marquise. Hugg simply interrupted Angus. Straight he doesn't like Angus's set.

"So...... Let's get down to business. "Angus's thinking circuit is definitely different from the average person," said of the marriage of dear little Theresa...... Actually, I wanted to talk to her personally. ”

The king's father and son did not reply.

Angus stared at the two for a moment and nodded, "Well, it's exactly as I expected." Little Theresa and Tsukasa eloped together, right? Oh oh oh, this is a legendary love story. I'm sad though...... But I've been prepared for that. ”

Angus joked: "I have long guessed that if she wants to run away from marriage, no one can stop her - let alone someone who does not want to stop her." It's fake to talk about getting engaged to me, and it's real to trick little Theresa out of Capet......"

Huge frowned. No matter how many times he met Angus, he found this guy to be really difficult.

The king waited calmly, knowing that Angus had something to say.

"After all, she had a mother who was a magician. And her bloodline is so magical and noble. Even if she's just a half-asser in magic, she's in the wizard's circle, and she's different from you, me, and these mortals. None of us can get help from those spellcasters, and she can- she has so many ...... around her Something that mortals should not know. Angus's eyebrows fluttered when he said this, and he couldn't see the slightest melancholy that his fiancée should have eloped with someone else, "Oh, I'm such a genius." Why did God give me such a mind? It's so painful, why does such a mind appear in someone like me......"

The king waved his hand: "All right, Mr. Marquis. If you have already guessed, why should you go here yourself? Aren't you afraid that you will be imprisoned again? You know, your father is now on the battlefield of the Eastern Holy War, and if I imprison you here, are you not afraid that your Duchy will collapse in an instant?"

"You won't do that, because you're not going to get anything good. "Angus was unafraid. "If the Duchy of Boulogne collapses now, it will only be the Galdonians and Holy Romance Emperors who will make the cheapest money. And not you. If you live in the south, you don't have a chance to reclaim that land. If you really want to do anything to me, it must be after you've driven out the Galedonians. ”

"You're quite right. The king nodded without hesitation.

"But I think I'm here in person this time as you expected. "Looks confident," you ...... What kind of pact do you want to make with Boulogne? In my father's absence, I have full control. ”

There were only three of them in the room.

"A treaty that you and I need, to guard against the Caledonians. The king touched his chin, "The Tuks are making waves in the East. The self-proclaimed Shield of Eugenia is running out of steam. It is clear that we are all under pressure from the Holy See to spare troops to support our faithful. But the Galledonians in the middle of the world are a little too relaxed. ”

"They will certainly have to accept the call of the Holy See. Though...... Their soldiers will surely pass through our territory. Angus's eyes narrowed.

"In any case, the situation is different from what it used to be. Being in the north, I think you must have borne more of the pressure from Galedonia than I did. The king leaned back in his chair. "You should understand, and your father should also understand, 'Let no one snore on the side of the couch'—a Seris proverb that Si once told me. ”

"But if it's a beautiful girl sleeping next to me, I'll be glad to do it. Angus rubbed his hands, "But...... You're right. Now the Galedonians are a little too strong. I don't have peace of mind sleeping. ”

There are no eternal friends, only eternal interests.

......

Knocked out by Theresa, Christina wandered aimlessly for a long time, and now, she is back in Pali City.

The plague had begun to dissipate in the city, and security had become a constant problem in the city, and since the occupation by the Caledonians, the security of the Pali Plains had become a headache for the conquerors.

No one knew how to solve it, and neither did Christina, who was in a state of confusion and completely unable to think properly.

Still, the city has recovered somewhat, with more or less pedestrians on the streets and shops opening one after another. Although the rule of the Corrion family is not welcome, as ordinary people, food still needs to be eaten, and work still has to be done.

Christina wandered the streets, causing some civilians to exclaim - they mistook her for Theresa. In this city, there are many people who know Theresa's appearance, and even if they have not seen it, they know the famous long ears of the Auvergne family.

The commotion didn't last long, and she bumped into Edward, who was returning from a patrol outside the city.

Christina looked at the man in front of her, and suddenly her throat choked, and a warm current ran across her cheeks......

"You're finally home, Christine. Edward ignored the astonished stares around him and hugged her in his arms. (To be continued......)
