Chapter 90: Territorial Strife
"Ronan, the carriage is sore in my ass and legs."
Alice, who was sitting on the cushion, said coquettishly to Ronan beside her with a bitter face.
At this moment, she was bare her white legs, shaking around uncomfortably, rubbing Isa's thighs with her toes from time to time, and she was helplessly pushed away.
After harassing Isa, he began to harass Ronan beside him again.
"Didn't you keep shouting to speed up and speed up, saying that you want to hurry up and go to the Cold Wind Collar?"
Ronan reached out and grabbed her smooth ankles, pressing her dishonest legs against her own to prevent them from moving.
"How did I know it would be so uncomfortable to ride in the carriage, well, I'm so uncomfortable, I need Isha to hug me to recover."
After being grabbed by his ankle, Alice, who was sitting between the two, simply lay down.
Resting her head on Isa's lap, she smiled and enjoyed the massage of Isa's little hands on her temples.
"Ronan, you massage my thighs, my legs are so sore."
After a while, after noticing Ronan with her head down as if in a daze, Alice flicked her calf to attract his attention.
"Yes, yes, Miss Alice."
Ronan, who was not here, responded, letting go of her ankles and placing his palms on her thighs.
The girl's slender and delicate thighs can be grasped by him with his hands, and the skin he touches is soft and moist, so delicate that he doesn't dare to use force.
After feeling it for a while, Ronan raised his hand and was about to press her, but when he put it down, he didn't feel the touch he should have, but touched his thigh.
?
When he came back to his senses, he found that Alice had retracted her legs, shrunk in front of her, blushing and hugging Isha tightly with her hands, her skin glowing a strange pink.
"What do you mean?" Ronan looked at her for some reason, confident that he hadn't touched anything he shouldn't.
Not to mention him, Alice herself didn't figure out the situation.
She only felt a pair of big hands covering her legs, and the burning touch made her body hot, and when she reacted, she realized that she had become like this.
Are girls so sensitive? Ronan roughly guessed the reason, and it seems that Alice is starting to grow up.
Sensing the awkward atmosphere now, he simply spoke in the direction of Isa:
"If you don't want to, forget it, does Isha need me to pinch your thigh?"
"No way!" Alice, whose head was still hot and bubbling, heard this, and immediately woke up and glared at him angrily.
"Don't hit Isa's idea." Alice raised her leg and gently kicked Ronan in the waist in displeasure, "Go on, oh, I can live with it this time." ”
"Forget it, I'm afraid you'll kick me in the face then."
Ronan slapped her little foot off and stood up under Isa's embarrassed gaze.
"It's almost lunchtime, what do you want to eat at noon?" Before going out, he asked the two of them.
"As long as it's not a barbecue." Alice put the blanket over her bare legs and pretended to reply calmly, and Isha nodded along with her.
Ronan said yes, and then came out of the carriage.
The Dense Fog Mountains, which symbolized the borders of the central provinces, were close in sight, and he looked at the Valan River in front of him, and commanded:
"Slow down and rest on the spot."
Unlike when you came, you don't have to be in a hurry on the way back.
In order to reduce the consumption of food, Ed simply took the knight into the river to fish.
With their extraordinary vision, they do not need to use fishing nets and other tools, but only a wooden fork, which can be aimed at the position of the fish on the surface of the water and can be accurately pierced and killed in one hit.
Ronan picked out a crucian carp in his twenties, almost half a catty.
After processing, add salt, ginger, pepper, etc., and stew the fish soup for Alice and the others.
Thanks to the development of overseas trade in the East China Sea in the past decade, major spice plants have been transported from overseas islands, including ginger, tobacco, cocoa and coffee.
It is precisely because of this that Ronan has more expectations for his life.
After all, people who are not afraid of this era do not know how to cook, and they are afraid that they don't even have seasonings, except for roasting, they can only boil in water.
Ronan sat on a rock, paying attention to the heat in the clay pot in front of him.
At this time, one of the knights on duty who was in charge of guarding the perimeter rushed to him and reported to him what he had discovered.
"My lord, on the road to the east of us, there are two teams of men and horses fighting and chasing, numbering more than a hundred, and judging from the direction, they will soon break into us."
"Tell them to get out of the way yourself." Ronan ordered.
During this time, they also encountered many other convoys along the way, and after discovering their mercenary dress, they did not bother each other.
After all, mercenaries have never had much oil and water, and there are no large carriages carrying goods behind them.
In the wilderness, there are very few people who ask for trouble and provoke such a team.
His men were ordered to leave, while Ronan observed the two groups through the eyes of a crow.
"That's why I hate the central provinces, and there are acquaintances everywhere." After seeing their situation clearly, he shook his head and said speechlessly.
Of the two sides of the war, one of them was on the run, and the leader was known to him.
Meno Ortautios, who is also part of the royal family, is only different from Ronan, and the other party's family can only be related to the emperor three generations ago.
After the separation, he became a court count and settled in Triumph City, and Meno was the second son of this generation of counts.
Because of the same age, I've met Ronan a few times before, but we don't have a good relationship.
Who let him wander in Aromatic Street at that time, and had a bad reputation in the Central Palace, and other royal children preferred to exchange feelings on Triumph Avenue.
When Ronan first purchased the land, his father, Earl Grant, talked to him about it.
There is also a mention of Meno, who became the fiefdom of the Vale Blue Collar at the foot of the Foggy Mountains of the Central Province.
Now it's a problem?
Ronan observed the group chasing after him, the most notable of which was the knight in the lead.
The other man raised his palm and shouted something into the mouth of a soldier who was rushing towards him.
Then the soldier seemed to have received some kind of invisible impact, and the whole person flew up from the war horse and fell to the ground, life and death are unknown.
A cultist of the Heresy or an awakened of the blood of heroes?
Ronan prefers the latter, and heretical orders rarely spend time with ordinary people, often holding each other together.
Behind the knight, most of them were ordinary soldiers, and instead of fearing the power of the leader, they shouted excitedly.
Ronan saw the banner set up behind the knight, with flying wings in the blue coat of arms.
This is the original lord coat of arms of the tile blue collar.
Unwilling to give up the territory, so came back and fought with Meno?
Ronan guessed, and spoke to Ed, who was not far away:
"Ed, go over and throw these two people away from me."
