Chapter 64 Behind the Scenes
The old butler paused before he continued: "This incident is therefore very difficult, and the nature of this incident itself is very bad. So now in the Circuit Court of the Nobles, not only the local commoners have united to demand that Mr. Sensi be severely punished, but several barons in the vicinity have put pressure on the court. The verdict, judging by my experience, should be...... Hanging. ”
Coco's eyes were dark, and she almost fainted. When she came to her senses, she immediately burst into tears and begged: "My brother has been the person who has loved me the most since he was a child, please, Lord Steward, find a way to save him!
Coco cried a lot. It was an unexpected disaster that almost crushed her.
"Are you still entitled to give anything?" asked the old butler earnestly.
Coco's cry froze, then turned into a sobbing of despair. Indeed, she is now able to move on with her past life, which is already a sign of leniency. And one of her qiē is from Akmund, and now, from Richard. And what can she come up with?
The old butler sighed and said, "With Lord Richard's current identity and status, he can still find a way to let Mr. Sensi stay alive. But what about Lord Richard's children?"
Coco stroked his lower abdomen, his face turned pale for a while, and he bit his lip and said, "But he's ...... He won't touch me, what can I do?"
The old housekeeper replied with an old saying: "There are only women who can't be pressed, how can there be men who can't be ***?"
Coco suddenly bowed deeply to the old butler and said, "I understand! I will do my best, but please help my brother survive as much as possible, and you will be able to survive!"
The old butler said lightly: "Time is already very tight. ”
Coco understood what the old butler meant, and turned to leave. Richard hadn't told her about his timetable, but Coco could tell from all signs that Richard would be leaving soon. Her time is indeed running out, and Richard doesn't know when she will be back, although it is difficult to guarantee that she will be able to conceive Richard's child in such a short time, but at least she must climb into Richard's bed. If you can't even do this, then you won't even have the qualifications to make a request.
Before leaving, Coco hesitated, but finally turned around, and said in a voice so light that he could barely hear it: "Lord Butler, that, can you ...... Increase the subsidy to my father a little more, just a little bit. ”
The old butler sighed again and said, "The subsidy your family has received is already three times the normal standard. And the reason for this single-mindedness is that Master Richard chose you as a partner. If you want to listen to me, it is that you should advise the honorable Knight of Peel that it is not a wise move to compare pomp and circumstance with a baron of centuries of history. Also, Mr. Sensi...... Oh, I don't have to think about him for a while. ”
Coco was speechless and quietly retreated.
Although his father was a double-armed warrior, because he had never really been on the battlefield, he was constantly stuck at the rank of tenth, and even the knights who were ordained were very dependent on years and seniority, and if Coco and her siblings could not establish certain merits, they probably could not even inherit this knighthood. His father had been in the Black Rose Castle for more than a decade, and it was a boring, pendulum-like job, but in return for a knight's leader, Peel was worth the price. He was originally very conscientious, but in recent years, near his old age, he suddenly became obsessed with a luxurious life for some reason, as if he wanted to make up for everything he had gained in the first half of his life.
So now the backbone of the whole family has actually become cocoa.
Coco quietly went to Richard's bedroom and waited.
But it was late at night, and Richard did not return to the room until she fell asleep in bed. The lights in Gordon's study were always on.
In his study, Richard finally figured out what he could do to maximize his earnings in the coming year. This is an ideal state with so many assumptions that it is impossible to achieve. But the significance of this solution is that it provides a benchmark for comparison, so that Richard knows what the cost of what he will do if he deviates from the best option. This cost, in the definition of black gold, is called opportunity cost.
After completing the huge calculation, Richard also felt a little tired. He rubbed his forehead and exhaled quietly, just as he wanted to take a break, when he suddenly felt a cool night breeze blowing into the room.
The door to the study opened silently, and two figures walked in one after the other.
The only people who could come up to this floor were Fasqi and the old butler, and they would knock on the door beforehand.
Richard froze, the sudden shadow on the floor made him dare not make a move, and the smell of extreme danger came to his face, as if he only had to move, it would pull out a series of violent reactions.
The shadow completely extended into the door, and Richard suddenly felt a huge mountain of pressure rushing over his face, making him subconsciously want to protect himself regardless of the ability to stimulate the fiery bloodline. But the little tingling on the skin made Richard suppress his blood ability, and the strength of these two people far exceeded Richard's, as long as they were willing, they could turn Richard into a corpse at any time.
Richard's hand was through his clothes, and he suddenly felt the storage of the magical crystal slate, so Richard's heart settled down wonderfully. Whatever happens, isn't there still this crystal slab? Probably it has the power to turn fate.
So Richard looked up at the two unfamiliar guests.
It was a man and a woman who came in.
The woman was young and beautiful, with short hair, very soft, but fluttering without the wind. Her eyes were so pale that it was almost impossible to see, and all that was left was bottomless pupils. The sharp gaze could no longer be described by a sharp sword, and as soon as Richard touched her gaze, his heart suddenly shrank, and he skipped a beat in an instant!
This is a murderous aura, an indescribable murderous aura! Although he knew that the other party did not mean to be unfavorable to him, he still felt the cold and very murderous. It's like approaching a sharp weapon that drinks countless blood, even if it's not pointed at you, you can still feel the sharp cracked skin.
Richard could hardly imagine what kind of murderous aura it would take to make his heart throb too. More importantly, what kind of experience can make this woman sit on such a murderous aura!
Although at first glance I knew that she was about level eighteen, but my intuition told Richard that this woman was very strong, very strong, incredibly strong!
