0081 Transfer of power
In the Jeanne family's estate, insects and birds are still chirping.
But the atmosphere in the castle was very solemn.
One of Jeanne's own intelligence agents was whispering.
"Lady Anoline, according to the information we have received, Dora and Victor were ambushed as they retreated from the high ground near the forest farm." The intelligence officer already had some trepidation on his face: "Then the enemy's four infantry regiments pursued Lord Victor's army until they fled into the Knights of the Silver Wing's garrison. ”
When Honorine heard this, her face turned pale and she almost fainted.
Although Dora is cowardly and occasionally eats outside, the couple actually has a good relationship.
After so many years of supporting each other, there may not be much love, but family affection is at least sufficient.
In addition, his son Victor was also in the infantry regiment, which made Inoline feel a huge panic.
Lady Anna's face was also full of uneasiness and apprehension, and she kept wringing her hands.
Honorine finally came back to her senses, and she asked, "Is there anything else?" ”
"When His Excellency Hadi and his army went out of the city from the military artery, he was artificially blocked, but he immediately decided to go out of the main city gate with his scouts, and then let the rest of the army return to the manor." The intelligence officer gasped.
Hearing this, Anoline was in a slightly better mood: "Hardy is still very reliable, he can still fight bravely out of the city in this obvious disadvantage, obviously we didn't believe the wrong person." ”
Lady Sissi nodded.
Lady Anna's expression was a little tangled.
"Has Hardy's army returned to the manor?" Inoline asked.
The intelligence officer nodded and said, "Yes, Lord Hadi's lieutenant, is already waiting outside for your summons. ”
"Let him in."
After a while, Rog walked in briskly in leather armor.
Because of the huge identity gap, Rogge didn't even dare to look up at the three ladies above.
"Hardy asked you to come back to guard the manor?" Inoline asked.
"That's true, and the master told us to do only Lady Sissi's orders."
Anoline was stunned: "Only obey Sissi's command? ”
"Yes." Rogge's voice trembled a little as he replied.
The three women in the room were all stunned.
It took a while for Anoline to say, "In other words, Hardy thinks that my old woman is unreliable. ”
With that, he let out a long sigh.
Mrs. Sissi hurriedly said, "Maybe when Hardy gave the order, the time was too tight, and only my name was said. ”
Honorine seemed to feel better.
At this time, Rogge suddenly interjected: "The master specially emphasizes that only Mrs. Sissi will obey the orders of Lady Sissi. ”
Lady Sissi was embarrassed.
Ms. Honorine smiled wryly.
Lady Anna was on the sidelines, with a look of jealousy on her face.
After a long while, Inoline waved her hand lightly and said, "You go down first, and do as Hardy orders." ”
Rogge breathed a sigh of relief and stepped back.
"Sissi, you stay home with Anna." Anoline stood up.
"Mother, what are you going to do?"
"I have to settle accounts with the old king, he dares to lie to me."
Sissi pursed her lips, she wouldn't say what her mother wanted to do in the past, and she didn't dare to say it.
But now, she suddenly felt a little irritable, and couldn't help but say, "Mother, or you can stay at home." ”
Anoline was stunned, she turned around and looked at Sissi in surprise: "What does this mean?" ”
Lady Sissi was a little scared in her heart, after all, she had grown up in the majesty of her mother since she was a child, and even now, she still feared and respected her mother.
But...... There are some things that she has really understood recently: "Let's wait for now, we don't have experience in dealing with this kind of thing." Wait for Hardy to come back, okay? ”
Inoline wanted to say something, but she saw her persistence for the first time in her daughter's eyes.
She was stunned for a moment, then sat down again.
"Also, I just said that I wanted to let you young people take power, why did I forget it!"
Lady Sissi breathed a sigh of relief.
She was really afraid that her mother would mess with her again.
I followed Hardy's advice before, and the good situation that I had created with great difficulty was actually ruined by my mother in two or three nights.
Something like this can't happen again.
What did Hardy send his army back to the estate for?
Mrs. Sissi's brain was now at full capacity.
Prevent the Jeanne estate from being raided?
Just follow my commands?
Obviously afraid of my mother's mess!
She felt that she had guessed Hardy's intentions, and after she had firmed up her thoughts, she became more confident.
"Next, we're just waiting."
"Wait until Hardy comes back, or maybe he sends someone to deliver the news. Make further plans. ”
Honorine's eyes became more and more determined as she watched her daughter, and the little depression in her heart disappeared all of a sudden.
"Good!"
She smiled and sat down.
Three women waited quietly in the castle.
But he didn't have to wait long before a guard rushed in, and before he could even salute, he shouted, "Three ladies, something is wrong." Nearly three hundred enemies had come from outside, and they had surrounded our front door. ”
Inoline stood up abruptly, her face very ugly.
Did the old king really do something to them?
She could already imagine that if her daughter hadn't stopped her just now, she would have run to the old king in such a rage to theorize, and instead of results, she would have been arrested by them and taken hostage by threatening her husband and daughter.
"I'm such a useless old thing." Inoline muttered.
Lady Sissi also heard her mother's murmuring, but now she couldn't take care of it so much, and hurriedly said, "Butler, let all the dead guard the manor first, and then let Adjutant Rogge come over." ”
Soon, Rog trotted in and got down on one knee.
"Does Hardy have any other instructions?"
"Nope." Rogge shook his head: "The master told us to only obey the command of Lady Sissi. ”
Mrs. Sissi took a deep breath, and her chest became more and more majestic: "The deployment of the manor is fully responsible for the people of Hexi County, and the dead soldiers in my manor are also under your command for the time being, can you bear this responsibility?" ”
Rogge didn't speak, a little hesitant.
The air is gradually solidifying.
Inoline stood up, tempted to speak, but sat back abruptly.
Mrs. Sissi's expression remained unchanged, and her voice was still as gentle and soft as Fang Cai.
"If Hardy is here, how will he solve this problem?"
Rogge looked up suddenly: "If the master is here, he will take care of everything." ”
"Then according to your master's old habits, the whole manor will be armed."
"Yes!"
Rogge stood up, and he suddenly had the feeling that the tone in which Lady Sissi spoke seemed to be somewhat similar to that of her own master.
