261: The betrayal of the old butler

Lilishi also understood what the old butler meant at this time, so she hurriedly explained: "Father Elope, Your Excellency Ellens still has important matters to discuss with my father, and you don't need to rush to pay for it, my father will arrange it." ”

Hearing this, Eloper withdrew his hand in embarrassment, and after he put the cloth bag away, he turned to Lilith and asked, "Miss, what happened to you after you left the castle?"

The aristocratic lady sighed and said in a low mood: "Yesterday I quietly left the castle under the protection of the guards, thinking that I would be able to return to Troy smoothly, but I did not expect to encounter another group of rebels on the way. They killed the guards and then caught me and forced me to follow them on the road, burning and looting along the way...... It wasn't until they arrived at a small fishing village in the kingdom of Aolis that they were lucky enough to meet Lord Elrens. After he had killed all the rebels, he learned that I was Chryses' daughter, and escorted me back here. ”

"I see, alas, I didn't expect it. I just avoided the evil tiger, but I met the evil wolf again! This world is really not for people to live!"

The old butler also shook his head and sighed, he looked at Lilishi cautiously, and asked in a hesitant manner, "Miss, are they, have they, are they to you...... That one, that disrespectful?"

When the noble lady heard this, her eyes immediately turned red, and her tears couldn't help but flow down like two lines of clear streams. She replied with soft sobs: "As soon as they caught me, I told them that I was the daughter of Chryses, and that my father would pay them a ransom and beg them not to hurt me...... I didn't expect that, I didn't expect them to still be unwilling to let me go. Their leader said that he had robbed enough money, but had never tasted the taste of a noble lady. When he finished speaking, he lunged at me. I tried my best to resist, but、But his strength was too great, and I ...... Woo!"

Lilith couldn't stop crying when she said this.

Eloper was also furious, clenching his fists tightly, his eyes glaring angrily, and he cursed through gritted teeth, "These abominable Eastern Romans. I curse them to go to hell with their families and relatives, and they will suffer all kinds of suffering, and they will never be able to turn over!"

After saying that, he took a deep breath and controlled his emotions. Reaching out and gently stroking the top of Lilishi's head, she said, "Miss, I know that you must be very sad now, but this has happened, and no matter how sad you are, you can't get it back." Let's look away. Good thing you're back at the castle. Then you'll be safe, and there will be no more bad guys bullying you. ”

The noble lady nodded tearfully and asked, "Is my father resting?" Please go and tell him in person, I have returned safely." ”

Eloper smiled bitterly and said, "But my lord, he has already set off for Troy this afternoon, and is not in the castle now." ”

"That's it......" Lilishi cried with a sad face, her father was her biggest support, she thought she would be reunited soon, but she didn't expect it to be so unfortunate. I don't know what to do for a while.

The old butler pondered for a while, and then said, "So be it." I will immediately send my trusted men to contact the lord and ask him to come back immediately and take the eldest lady with him to Troy. You can sit in my room for a while, and don't go anywhere, lest the rebels get the news and come back. ”

The noble lady nodded in agreement, and Eloper said a few words of comfort, and then turned away

As soon as Eloper left, Elrens immediately whispered to the noble lady, "There is a big problem with this butler, he may have betrayed your family, we need to leave here immediately." ”

"Huh?" Lilishi was taken aback, and quickly asked in disbelief, "But Eloper and his family have been loyal to our family for several generations, and they have always been loyal and have never had any problems, so how could they suddenly betray?"

The evil dragon sneered: "There was no problem before, it doesn't mean that there won't be now, people will change." As the steward of the castle, he has served for several generations, and he has more or less some savings, how can he live so simply? If he likes simplicity by nature, but there are expensive oriental handicrafts on the table, which he obviously bought only recently with a large sum of money, and he was in a hurry to let me go, took out a large bag of gold coins, and sold so generously, if he hadn't betrayed you, how could he suddenly get this huge amount of money?!"

"This ......" Miss Noble was speechless, and her confidence had begun to waver.

Elrens continued: "He must have done so because he heard that I had rescued you from a group of rebels, and that I was afraid that I would ruin his good deeds. Otherwise, it stands to reason that in this period of war and chaos, the last thing you want is to have a powerful friend in your family?"

Hearing this, Lilishi had been persuaded by the evil dragon, she didn't expect that even the old housekeeper who had watched her grow up since she was a child and longed for the most trust would betray her and her father, and she was sad and desperate for a while, and her tears couldn't help but flow down again.

Elrence sighed and persuaded: "Don't be sad, your father is a great nobleman, has countless wealth, and lives in the suburbs, so he will naturally be remembered by the bad guys, as long as he moves back to Troy City, I believe that no matter how arrogant the Eastern Romans are, they will not blatantly kill people and set fire to the royal city." ”

"But...... But what shall I do now?" asked the noble lady, sobbing helplessly.

"Let's get out of here now, go to your father, and leave the castle and return to Troy as soon as we find it. With that, the dragon pulled up the noble lady and carried her behind him.

Lilith asked, "But my father is not in the castle, shall we go to Troy to find him?"

Elrence replied with a sneer: "Don't worry, I think your father should still be in the castle, otherwise why would you arrange so many guards?" The reason why the butler told you that your father had left was so that you would stay in his cabin obediently, and not let your father know that you had returned. I guess he's going to have someone to tell the rebels right now!"

When the noble lady heard that her father was probably still in the castle, she immediately perked up and prayed silently. Today she has suffered too much misfortune, insulted by the rebels, betrayed by the people she trusts the most, and if she cannot be reunited with her father, I am afraid that she will not be able to continue to support her......
