Baozi sincerely thanks: I voted for 2 monthly tickets in the days without you, Mitchellhero voted for 2 monthly tickets, and Iron Man voted for 2 monthly tickets;
This woman should not be here at this moment, Brandt Bonnie, the only descendant of Duke Bellant, is now the head of the high-ranking adjutant office of the Falcon Dynasty, if only in terms of status, only the Prince of Saturas, the Minister of the Crown of the Interior, or can be compared, the appearance of this woman is enough to reverse the unfavorable conjecture of the Prais family, like a huge, asymmetrical weight, crushing both sides of the original scale
"Is that rumor true?"
With incredulous eyes, the two little nobles in charge of monitoring each other looked at each other in horror, and from each other's eyes, the two nobles saw a word at the same time, "confused, unbelievable, fearful......"
"Report it, report it to the top immediately, something must be wrong" They heard the same panicked sound from the carriage not far away, proving that this situation was not only between the two of them, a carriage rushed out of the stop in a hurry,
"Bang" because the turn was too sharp, the wheels collided with the two carriages that were reversing in front and behind, and an extremely ugly collision sound proved that the ruts of the carriage were broken, and the whole carriage creaked and staggered there.
The "bastard" The nobleman in the cloak on the carriage scolded angrily, and threw the whip in his hand to the ground, if it was in the past, the two sides who collided with each other would inevitably have a quarrel, and the carriage represented the face of the family, and even led the zhì family to fight because of the collision.
But now, the Paraven nobleman in the carriage could no longer care about this, and he jumped out of the carriage like a monkey with a burning butt, and did not even care about the time to reprimand, and trotted all the way and disappeared into the distance.
"It seems to be from the Stares family, the deputy minister of finance," a well-informed little nobleman muttered to himself, seeing that the carriage left so humiliatingly, the other carriages no longer disregarded any aristocratic etiquette, and turned in a swarm, and for a time at the door of the Prais family, it seemed to be very lively, and some civilians nearby who originally wanted to see Prais lively, let out bursts of fierce laughter
Berant Bonnie, who was standing in front of the door of Prais's house, looked at this scene with a cold look at the corners of her mouth and her eyes coldly.
"Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Finance, Deputy Minister of the Ministry of War, Hernes, Executive Director of the Ministry of Administration...... It's really a grand meeting in the aristocratic world" For the chaos caused by her appearance, the corners of Berlante Bonnie's mouth turned up slightly with disdain, and the longer she stayed on Vekia's side, the more she looked down on the so-called "aristocracy",
She is a high-ranking nobleman who grew up in Paravon, and one of the three famous beauties, just by seeing these small family coats of arms, she can guess that there are those people standing behind these little nobles who have fled for only ten minutes, and the door of the Prais family, which was full of carriages just now, is empty, and no one dares to stay,
The first to leave, but the last to receive the report, the Deputy Minister of Finance, Starres, who received the urgent report, almost jumped out of his seat,
"Are you sure you're right, it's the traitor's daughter, Berant Bonnie, how could she be at the door of the Prais family," Starres asked in an extremely irascible manner
"It's true, my subordinates must be right," said the messenger who ran in muddy water
The Deputy Minister of Finance, Starres, was a middle-aged man of about forty years old, with light black skin, dark and thick hair, medium height but burly physique, a thick beard on his cheeks and mouth, and an angular face.
When he was young, he was also a famous beautiful man in Kyoto, but unfortunately he married 3 women in a row, and only gave birth to a son, and he was born with a mental retardation.
Originally, he didn't dare to have such extravagant hopes, but since it was rumored in the court that the Falcon Dynasty had terminated its marriage with the Prais family, he, like many other nobles, put his idea on the second lady of the Prais family.
This time he spent so much effort, not hesitating to make himself the object of ridicule by the nobles, that is, he hoped to be able to marry a woman who was the right person for his mentally handicapped son.
The appearance of Bonnie of Keberant undoubtedly shows that the marriage of the Falcon Dynasty still exists, otherwise the person in charge of the Falcon King's internal affairs would not have appeared at the door of the Prais family.
"Certainly, something must have gone wrong......" Starres' face became ugly after confirming that it was correct, and he paced back and forth in his hall, and after a while, he sat down in his seat in great annoyance, "What should I do? If Berrant Bonnie appeared at Prais's house, it would only prove that the rumor was true."
The terrifying thought that "the woman who molested the falcon of Vecchia will die a miserable ......" is shaking every Paraven nobleman at this moment,
You know, the current Vikia is no longer the small country that you could bully at will a few years ago.
The wings of the Vekia Falcon have covered the northern sky, and this famous general, known as the whip of the immortal heaven that drives the kingdom, has replaced Rui Erdian as the new overlord of the northern part of the continent
What's more, this invincible Vecchia Falcon has just signed an agreement with Rui Erdian to jointly deal with the Dongting people, and the 60,000 troops of the Falcon Dynasty are in the Amira area on the west side of Yerui Pavilion, and it will not take a day to enter Paraven
In the situation of the Eastern Court cavalry army, in order to appease the anger of this powerful ally, the royal family of Ruierdian, who has always been decisive and ruthless, will never care about a few heads of Palauven nobles.
A conjecture that made him shudder popped up in Stares' mind, the royal family deliberately concealed the true situation, and marrying the daughter of a courtier side by side as a princess of the kingdom was not a very glorious thing no matter how you look at it, so only the news of the marriage between the royal family and the Falcon Dynasty was announced, and the marriage of the Prais family was tight-lipped
His Majesty, the scheming and sophisticated king, must know that the Paravon nobles, who do not know the inside story, will definitely do something radical to Prais, who has lost power.
When the time comes, all it takes is a gentle wave of the royal family's hand, and the sword of the royal guard knight will not hesitate to behead some of the guys who get carried away...... And then...... If there is no then, the royal family will definitely be killed, not only to sell this favor to the Wikibians, but also to demonstrate the authority of the royal family, and get a large amount of wealth enough to temporarily fill the treasury, anyway, the heads of the Paraven nobles, in the eyes of the high royal family, are not a valuable thing in the first place
If this is the case, it would be terrible, this trick of the royal family killed birds with one stone, and the entire Palauven nobles were played, this thought made Stares shiver, as if stimulated, he ran and shouted to the servants outside the door, "Quick, prepare the carriage immediately, I will go to the Prais mansion, no matter what the conditions, we must go to Lord Prais to forgive us for our recklessness, otherwise a catastrophe will come"
The same speculation and orders almost all appeared in the orders of the heads of the various families in Kyoto, and the Prais Mansion, which had just cooled down, was once again crowded with the swarming nobles, and the long carriage station filled the Guangping at the door, and in order to get the opportunity to meet Prais first, there were even several patriarchs of the families who fought in the order of entering the gate,
As the news of Berlante Bonnie's arrival in Beijing spread throughout Parabun like an earthquake, the news of the marriage between the Prais family and the Falcon Dynasty was officially mentioned by the royal family for the first time at the court meeting the next day.
Prais's expression was as silent as ever, but the wind of the court was no longer directed at the Prais family, and even some ministers brazenly proposed that the post of Minister of Military Affairs should be reinstated.
Of course, everyone knows what is going on, in this case, no matter how stupid the royal family is, it is impossible to agree, anyway, it is a blank check, and it does not cost money to open it, and it can also express its friendship to Prais, if it can be taken on the line of the Falcon Dynasty, many things in the future will be much easier
Even the Minister of War who had reprimanded Prais in public also greeted Prais with an embarrassed face, although it was a cold face from Prais who replied to him, but this brazen Minister of War still mentioned Prais many times, intentionally or unintentionally, in the past, and showed a look of admiration.
Returning from the court meeting, Prais's gloomy face was finally better, in addition to lamenting the changeability of the world, he also began to prepare for the affairs of sending off relatives.
Due to the folk custom of weddings on the Ikadivar continent, the bride should be handed over to the groom by the girl's father, indicating the transfer of responsibilities between the two men.
Princess Haradian, who married together, was only accompanied by an older noble lady because of her special status, so Prais naturally became the head of the envoy group for this marriage
On the vast autumn day, a black cloud that obscured the sky appeared on the hill outside Ye Rui Pavilion,
The sentries standing guard on the tower of the "enemy attack" city let out a terrible shout, and the chaotic military camp seemed to explode, and the dense soldiers ran out of the camp and ran towards their positions
"Array, array, quick, rabbit cub stab the ass of the Dongting people with your spear" The rude shouts of the Ryerdian infantry captains were as loud as the swords they wielded,
The scattered spears were dotted with cold stars, and the tips of the spears burst with bursting cold air quickly converged into several uneven walls of guns, and under the simple leather helmets were faces full of tension and of different ages, there were childish children, and old people with wrinkled faces, their hands holding wooden poles and spears were trembling slightly, staring at the black clouds in the distance, and their eyes were completely frightened and confused,
"Dongting, Dongting people are here" There were even a few soldiers who made a move to escape, and were quickly caught by the law enforcement team behind them, cutting off their heads in front of the entire platoon of soldiers, and bright red blood shot out of the chest cavity of the headless corpse, staining the ground under the soldiers' feet
"See, this is what happens to deserters"
The armored knight with the sharp knight's sword pointed to the corpses of the fleeing soldiers, most of whom were temporarily recruits, and almost all civilian men over the age of 14 and under the age of 50 were drafted into the army to counter the southward movement of the Dongting people.
Soon, the people of Rui Erdian noticed that something seemed to be wrong in front of them.
"This ...... Do the people of Dongting also drive the carriage?" The Rui Erdian soldiers standing in the front row looked at each other, and as the distance approached, in front of them, endless baggage carts raised rolling gray balls, enveloping all of them,
The wheels creaked forward, stretching for dozens of miles outside Ye Ruige, the pillows thrown on the carriage glittered red in the sun, the shovels, the small wooden barrels were all erected, the mirrors, the kettles, all glowed dizzily on the carriage, creaking as the carriage moved
The child's head, the cat's ears in the middle of the pillow, the pile of clothes, the roll of bedding, the rags swaying, the chicken in the chicken coop crowing unsteadily, the cow tied in a string following behind, the long-haired dog is full of thorn fruits, sticking out his tongue, and is lying on the wheel in a hurry and panting,
It can be seen that when these men and women fled from home, they could only greedily and helplessly load all the qiē things at hand on the carriage, and the tide of displaced people in front of them even exceeded the range that Parabun in Kyoto could bear, and the Yeruige defense line defended by the 200,000 Ruierdian army ushered in the first irresistible impact.
