These talents made Char's eyes light up, he looked at the pile of mercenaries below who were obviously miscellaneous, and said with a smile: "I can't ask one by one, I will go to the innkeeper to register your name and residence, and after I choose, I will naturally send someone to inform you." ” The following people let Char go, and ran to pester the innkeeper, and the boss was also black-hearted, so they sent the guys to the back to find tables, chairs, pens, ink, and paper to register, but they could pay three copper plates first to sign up and make a fortune.
Char didn't pay attention to these, walked directly to the middle of the lobby, and looked at the remaining mercenaries sitting there around him, obviously these people are the real elite, Char smiled, pulled out a dagger with a bang, and nailed it to a tabletop, the dagger went directly without a handle, looked around, and said with a smile: "I want to come to this house now, I am the one who really has the ability, okay, so who is this business for, let's talk about it first." ” After a pause, Char raised his eyebrows: "It's hard to say on the street, I went to the wildfire field this time, first to the red wilderness, and then I have to take the road to the west, to the Zaku Turen, so those who are familiar with the terrain there are preferred."
At this moment, in the lobby, there was a table sitting against the door, a table under the stairs, and another table on Char's left side, obviously three different groups of people, listening to Char's words, these three groups looked at each other, and finally, the group of people sitting at the door, one of the middle-aged samurai stood up, this person was dressed in leather armor, and a long sword was placed on the table, and the hilt was wrapped in a layer of linen, the cloth was obviously stained with blood left over the years, and it was a red and green color.
The middle-aged warrior stood up, looked at Char, and then at the other two groups, but smiled: "This lord, although the price of your business is high enough, but one business cannot be done in three, the decision on who to give it to is still in your hands." ” After saying that, he grabbed the sword, slashed it on the table next to him, and with a clatter, the table was split in half by his sword, but it did not move at all, until the middle-aged warrior walked over and gently pushed, and the table split into two halves and fell down with a bang.
This sword is very beautiful, especially the combination of strength and skill is very good, Char's eyes lit up.
The middle-aged warrior smiled and said slowly: "We are from the Russell Mercenary Group, my name is Russell, since you are an old man in Wildfire Town, then you have naturally heard of this name, and the credibility of our regiment does not need to be said." ” Char nodded, Russell Mercenary Group, he had indeed heard of this fame, it was very loud.
There was a cold "hum" next to him, and a short and capable warrior stood out from the table, the man shaved his bare head, but his face was full of fierceness, and he sneered: "Russell, your swordsmanship is okay to split the table, but it is far from being good for people." ” After speaking, he looked at Char and said loudly: "We are a Cossack mercenary group, you naturally won't have heard of this name, I won't say anything else, my people are all elite, and our own horses and my people are all well-skilled, not to mention an ordinary thief group, even if they encounter regular cavalry, my people will not be left behind." ” As soon as the cavalry Char heard this, his eyes lit up a little, he was born in the Rhodrian cavalry regiment, and he was born with a good impression of cavalry.
"Cossacks, your bottom is fine, others don't know, don't we know" Finally, the people sitting at the innermost table jumped up, this group of people were all burly, led by a strong man, the physique was almost comparable to Sharpa, with broad shoulders, big shoulders and round waist, wearing a pair of round chest armor, two exposed arms with bulging muscles, and a short-handled double-edged battle axe on his back, after jumping up, he pointed at the people of the Cossack mercenary group and sneered: "Don't believe them, this lord, The Cossacks used to be a bunch of horse thieves, these people were not clean in their hands, maybe they were less than a hundred miles out of town, and they would be able to rob the caravan they were protecting with their faces, and it was you bastards who broke our rules."
After speaking, he straightened his chest and shouted: "We are the Fire Rhino Mercenary Regiment, my name is Hawke, you invited us, keep it right, I have been here for ten years, my father died in the territory of the dwarf clan to protect a guest, as long as we receive your money, even if we fight for our lives, we will definitely keep you safe."
The people of the Cossack mercenary group were pierced by the old bottom, and they were immediately annoyed and angry, and they jumped up one by one and scolded, this strong man named Hawke stood there, his face was full of arrogance, but he puffed up his chest and stared coldly at the lean thin man: "What's the matter, I have pierced your bottom line, do you want to do it, hum, you have troubled me six times, and each time I was broken by Lao Tzu A few bones, do you want to break a few more today, Lao Tzu will fulfill you?"
The Cossack mercenary regiment had obviously suffered a lot under him, and when he heard this, everyone changed color, and although they scolded more fiercely, none of them dared to come up.
Huo Ke snorted, and shouted proudly: "Being a mercenary is a desperate business, but since you have to pay attention to credit and the guest gives money, let's take our lives to fight for the people of your Cossack regiment, Lao Tzu looks down on a kind of and comes over, Lao Tzu just has itchy hands today, splitting a few bastards, just to relax your muscles and bones" The people of the Cossack mercenary group were so excited that they were red-faced, and they were about to rush up, but they were stopped by the thin and capable man, who looked at Hawke coldly, gritted his teeth and shouted: "Hawke, I remember this matter, you will regret this business one day Lao Tzu will not rob you anymore, it's just today's matter, and we will settle accounts together in the future."
After saying that, he didn't look at Char, turned around and led people out.
The middle-aged man named Russell at the door looked at Hawke, hesitated, and frowned: "Hawke, not long after your father died, I know that your people need this money, and I won't fight with you this time." ” After a pause, the middle-aged man seemed to be quite kind, and said slowly: "Although those Cossack guys are hateful, they are a group of cunning wolves, although you kid is powerful, but you must also be careful of their secret tricks." ” After speaking, he glanced at Char, sighed, and was about to take someone away.
"Wait" Char smiled and walked over slowly: "I didn't say I wouldn't hire you." ” Russell was stunned for a moment, his face was a little embarrassed, and he glanced at Hawke, who seemed to be a downright person, and said loudly: "Since this guest chose your Russell group, Lao Tzu is not unconvinced, as long as it doesn't fall into the hands of the Cossack group of horse thieves." ” After speaking, he seemed to be a little helpless, sighed, and was about to leave.
"You can't go either."
Char smiled and stopped the strong man: "You two groups, I invited them all" Both groups looked at Char strangely, and Char smiled and said, "Wait a minute." ” Turning back to the upstairs room, after a short while, he walked out with two large leather bags in one hand, came downstairs, shook the two bags on the table, and poured out a large number of golden coins.
Seeing so many gold coins in front of him, although all those mercenaries changed color, there was no abnormal movement, Char felt a little more satisfied, and said with a smile: "Here are three hundred gold coins, even if I pay half of it first, when I come back, there will be three hundred."
You two will divide the money."
In the upstairs room, Sharpa and Philip heard the movement below, Sharpa sighed: "What are you doing with wasting so much money, these two groups have stayed, and it is useless, as long as you bring the Heavenly Attack, there will be no great danger on the way to come, as for going to the territory of the Zaku natives, I heard that those natives rarely attack the human merchants." ” Philip ran out with Sharba to buy grain today, and he was tired for a day, so he smiled faintly after listening to it, and said slowly: "You don't understand the mind of adults." ” "What the hell is Char thinking, I heard that we are already short of money, and we are spending so much money, alas, anyway, Lao Tzu doesn't understand, but you yin and yang weird guy understand" Sharba glared at Philip unconvinced.
Today, the two of them went out to buy grain, Philip is a shrewd man, and he is not willing to suffer any loss when bargaining with people, if he changes to Sharba and goes alone, I am afraid that this rude man will have been deceived by the gang of annihilators in Wildfire Town.
Sharba still doesn't have a good impression of Philip, and he is even more unconvinced at the moment, thinking: Lao Tzu and Char are good brothers who killed from the pile of dead people together, I don't understand him, but you, a weird guy, understand Philip shook his head and smiled lightly: "The armaments of Mor County are going to be reorganized, and there is a lack of good soldiers, and the elite mercenaries in this wildfire town can recruit more, and the idea of the adults is very good." ” Philip didn't guess Char's mind wrong.
If it's just a simple bodyguard, then there's really no need to find so many mercenaries in Wildfire Town with great fanfare.
And it cost so much money to build momentum.
It's just Char's eyes, those elite and fierce mercenary warriors in Wildfire Town, these people are all elite people who have experienced adventures and seen blood, if they can eat it and train it well to develop discipline, it will be an excellent army.
As for the price, it is a little expensive, but now Char has no soldiers in his hands, and the armaments of Moore County are too wasteful, so it is not bad to get some mercenaries to enrich the army, and to build such an elite army on a small scale.
In fact, it was not without precedent for the Byzantine army to recruit mercenaries.
It's just that the mercenaries are usually loose and free, and they can't stand the harsh discipline in the army.
But this is not the main problem, after all, as a mercenary, there is no next meal, perennial adventure, but also desperately to earn hard-earned money, in fact, the income is not so high, a mercenary works for a lifetime, when he is old, he can save a few gold coins, and return to his hometown to buy a little land to support the elderly, it is already considered a good death.
You can enter the Byzantine army, eat military salaries and rations, and most of the time is just training, and the time for fighting is only a small number after all.
And once you are discharged from the army, you can also get a severance pay, which is much better than being a mercenary in terms of security and stability, and the income may not be much lower.
It's just that many mercenaries are reluctant to enter the official army of the empire, mainly because they don't have a good idea.
The military system of the Byzantine Empire was controlled by the warlord henchmen, and now although it has been broken, there are eagle forces and warlord henchmen fighting in the ring.
However, the army of the empire, but all the officer positions in the higher-level army pay attention to their origin and qualifications: they are warlord henchmen, or you are an outsider who graduated from the Eagle Military Academy, and the warlord henchmen dislike you as not their own, so they naturally refuse to reuse them.
Although the forces of the Eagle Department will not have too deep a view of the portal, the generals of the Eagle Department have a bad problem: Qinggao.
These people ask themselves that they are all from orthodox military academies, have received a high militarized education, and belong to elite talents.
For those outsiders who were born in the wilderness, they also faintly looked down on them.
Even if it is Char, if it weren't for the friendship between Adric and General Ruhl, coupled with the undeniable outstanding contributions in this war, those academic generals in the Eagle Department may not accept Char Even so, many people in the Eagle Department at this moment look down on Char, a person from a wild background, there are also many people.
This situation has resulted in a situation in which if you don't have really extremely strong skills, or a very hard backstage, don't want to mix up in the army.
The leader of a foreign mercenary gang enlisted in the mercenary group may be able to make a name for himself with his good martial arts, and at most he will be great if he mixes with a captain, as for ordinary mercenary warriors, he will be a big soldier for the rest of his life The slightly higher military positions are all controlled by people from both factions, and they can't compete with each other, how can they be spent on others However, Char doesn't care about so much, he himself is from a wild road, and he doesn't value people's backgrounds and qualifications, he only knows that many mercenary groups in Wildfire Town are very elite, and if they can be collected and recruited to their subordinates, they have great potential.
The only problem is that it costs.
But as long as you get the deal with the Zakutu people and get the gold of the Zakutu, are you afraid that there will be no money?
After staying in Wildfire Town for another three days, almost all the food that could be bought in the market in the town was scavenged, and the Gallens Chamber of Commerce also helped a lot, and finally drove fifty carts full of grain, Char and his party finally set off from Wildfire Town.
This trip was a large group of people, fifty carts, a total of 100 grooms and coachmen, and two mercenary groups, a total of 160 people, Russell mercenary group and Fire Rhino Regiment people all joined, seeing that Char gave a lot of money, he simply brought out all the manpower and elite in the group, and the number of people also exceeded Char's previous expectations.
In addition, there is a convoy of the Gallens Merchant Group, six carts, but thirty elite warriors were sent to escort them, a group of people plus Char's four, and an extra heavenly attack, exactly three hundred and four, on this morning, set off from Wildfire Town, and went to the red wilderness At this moment, the turtle rode at the front of the team, watching dozens of carts behind him drag into a long dragon, and elite mercenary warriors were fully armed and followed in the queue, looking at the boundless wildfire wilderness in front of him, I felt a little emotional.

Wildfire Plains Lao Tzu is back here Last time I was here, Lao Tzu bled and killed people, and the first good friend he made in his life died in his arms, but this time he came back, but it was a different scene, and his identity was different at the moment, and his mentality was different At this moment, the turtle didn't know that this return to the wildfire field, what awaited him would be a test that would affect the rest of his life "Your Highness."
The gentle call startled Garcia, who was looking out the window and distracted, and he slowly turned his head.
Because he was distracted and disturbed by his thoughts, Garcia's eyes showed a faint irritability.
However, as the crown prince, he is famous for paying attention to etiquette, and in the face of the respectful and strict court lady in front of him, Garcia spoke in an impeccable voice with a unique tone of voice, which was also cultivated and trained for many years, which showed his gentleness and did not lose the majesty of the superior.
"Tell me, how is she doing?"
The crown prince stood up and looked at the female officer in front of him.
This female official was the one beside Adeline, with a strict expression, her hands crossed in front of her, bowing slightly, and after a very standard etiquette, she replied in a meticulous tone: "Her Royal Highness Adeline is very good, but recently she has often been locked in her room alone in a daze, and she has not asked to go out again, and when she has nothing to do, she reads in the room." ” "Reading" Garcia raised his eyebrows slightly, as if talking to himself: "Oh, when did she like to read books." ” After a pause, he looked at the female official, frowned, and said, "What books did she read?"
"Historical materials of the empire, general history of the mainland, etc."
The female officer pondered for a while: "It seems that there are some biographies of the great men of the founding fathers.
Well, I've seen Her Royal Highness Adeline read a lot lately, but most of them are biographies of the Tulip family. ” "Biography of Osgiria" Garcia smiled slightly: "When did my sister become interested in military history." ” "Also" The female officer hesitated for a moment, seemed to hesitate slightly, but still mustered up the courage to say, "Her Royal Highness Adeline has not had a good appetite recently, and she has eaten a little less.
It seems that a young girl like her is really bored in the castle all day long, but Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess has been to see her a few times recently, and with the company of Her Royal Highness Daphine, Her Royal Highness Adeline seems to be in a better mood. ” "Okay, I got it."
The crown prince raised his finger slightly, pulled out a gold-trimmed embroidered hand towel from his sleeve, and carefully wiped the corners of his mouth: "Be careful lately, don't let my sister run around anymore."
The Odin's mission is coming, and this time they ask to see Adeline, and the father will probably agree, and if Adeline runs away again, it will be difficult to explain to the Odin.
Well, since she has been interested in reading books recently, you can arrange for the lecturers and scholars in the court to tell her about history books, and let people move all the history books in my study to her, as long as she doesn't go out, whatever she wants, she can do it. ” The lady bowed and bowed, and when they were gone, the crown prince threw the handkerchief on the table and turned his head to look at the sky outside the window, as if in contemplation.
Oskilia Biography This sister, when did she become interested in the affairs of the Tulip family The crown prince was out of his mind for a while, and there were three soft knocks on the door outside the door, and then a man in a gown and a golden wig walked in, it was his housekeeper.
"Your Highness, the time has come."
The butler had one hand across his chest and the other behind his back, and his standard demeanor made the crown prince's eyebrows stretch slightly, and he seemed to be very satisfied with the other party's outfit, and nodded: "I know." ” "You have a quarter of an hour for afternoon tea, and then a quarter of an hour to change your clothes, and the guests will arrive half an hour before the banquet begins, and if you don't have any special arrangements, I will arrange the time for the audience."
"No need for afternoon tea."
The crown prince shook his head, he stood up and walked to a huge mirror in the room, which was more than one person high, and looked at his figure in the mirror, which was obviously inherited from the angular facial contours of the Emperor of the Mounted Spear, but his complexion was a little pale and weak, his expression was rigorous, his eyes were calm, his beard and hair were meticulous, and he was not picky in his manners, and he could not even find a trace of wrinkles in his clothes.
He himself is very satisfied with such an appearance, but he also knows that in the aristocratic circle, there are many people who talk about themselves behind their backs, but they have another evaluation of themselves: twilight. lethargy Indeed, compared with his father, who is old but still occasionally shows his grandeur, he is too introverted in his usual life, and although he acts rigorously, he has become a twilight that has not entered the heart when he falls into the mouth of others.
Well, twilight Garcia's habits of life are almost rigorous to the extreme.
He gets up at a fixed time every day, and every moment is late, and then every day for breakfast is a piece of melon and a small piece of sirloin, roasted until seven ripe.
Unless it's a banquet, Garcia never drinks alcohol, he doesn't like alcohol, he doesn't like food, he doesn't have much preference for gorgeous things, and as for antiques, he has never deliberately pursued them.
When it comes to acting, Garcia's greatest characteristic is accuracy He hates the unexpected, and likes to make an accurate plan for everything and then do it one by one.
Even his walking habits remained the same.
He has a habit of walking around the garden every evening, walking around the garden of his palace, and walking down in a circle, a total of one thousand and nine steps Since he became an adult, the height and body shape have not changed again, and the number of steps has not changed again Walking around the garden, one thousand and nine steps, one step will not be more, one step will not be less He was very attentive to his words and deeds, and even though he had followed his personal entourage for many years, he rarely saw the crown prince lose control of his emotions, and the only time in recent years was the night he learned of Bonfret's death.
The next morning, Garcia went to meet the guests as usual, attended a salon party in the aristocratic circle, and played polo with friends for a while.
Every afternoon, he practiced swordsmanship for half an hour and rode a horse for half an hour, so that despite being in his thirties, he remained in good shape.
Many young aristocrats of his age have already developed a bloated appearance of a big belly when they are over thirty.
Until now, Crown Prince Garcia is still broad-shouldered and narrow-waisted, and even the court painters who painted him sighed that the crown prince's body shape has not changed for ten years, and what he looked like when he was twenty years old is still the same now.
He rarely shows his emotions, that is, he does not appear too enthusiastic to people, nor does he appear too cold, he is polite to anyone, and his attitude is gentle, but in this gentleness, it is obvious that he maintains a strange distance.
Even when he was smiling at people, although that smile was kind, it was unabashedly indifferent to it.
Another word for rigor is rigidity, and many people assume that Garcia is a rigid and inflexible person.
Then, the evaluation of Twilight naturally followed him for many years.
Twilight looked at the calm and calm face in the mirror, Garcia slowly unbuttoned his collar, he raised his hand slightly, the door opened, and a team of court servants rushed in, dragging new and complicated dresses in their hands, some helping him to put on a collar, some helping him to dress, some helping him to make a belt, and some helping him to put on a robe.
Other waiters brought trays of ornaments one by one for him to choose from.
The time to dress up was not much, no less, a quarter of an hour was done, and the man in the mirror had become a man dressed in a sumptuous court dress, with a soft fox collar, the neckline was buttoned with an expensive sapphire, and the straight gown reflected his waist, cut to the extreme fines, and the double row of buttons, each of which was pure gold, but under the special design, it did not look tacky at all.
The shiny leather boots could almost shine the shadow of a person, and after a waiter helped him comb his hair, the two waiters brought two small mirrors to stand on both sides, so that His Royal Highness could see himself in the mirror from several angles.
When everything was in place, Garcia became the crown prince that everyone knows: outstanding, rigorous and calm.
After the two attendants carefully smoothed out an imperceptible fold in his trouser leg, the crown prince looked like a fine statue after another.
Garcia looked satisfied, he was satisfied with the way he looked.
Just as he was about to go out, he suddenly heard the sound of the servants arguing outside the door, which made Garcia frown.
"No, you can't go in, Your Highness is changing clothes."
"Oh no, please don't embarrass us, ah" After a few short exclamations, the door slammed open, and the two servants standing in the door were knocked aside, and then a figure rushed in like a raging fire, ran in front of Garcia, and despite the exclamations of the people next to him, a fist hit Garcia in the nose With a bang, Garcia fell backwards in front of him, and then the man pounced on him, his fist kept smashing down, and after Garcia was hit on the ground, he didn't say a word, and after three or five punches, the terrified servant next to him rushed up and pulled the man up.
Blood flowed from the corners of the crown prince's mouth when he was beaten, but there was no expression of pain or anger on his face, he slowly got up himself, and did not look at the person who was firmly held by several servants, first looked in the mirror, pulled out the handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and then grinned, and then turned to look at the man who was hugged by several servants, but still struggling.

At this moment, Garcia suddenly smiled.
"Let him go."
The crown prince's voice did not seem to be discerning irritation.
A few servants were a little frightened, otherwise they still let go, but fortunately the man didn't pounce again, just stood there, staring at the crown prince coldly, with an indignant face.
"Let's all go out, let me talk to the little duke for a while."
The crown prince glanced at the somewhat sluggish manager, and said with a smile: "I still have time, don't I?"
"Well, you canceled afternoon tea, so you still have a quarter of an hour."
"Very well, let's go out first."
Garcia's tone was unmistakable.
Soon, everyone was gone, and the room was left with Garcia, and the angry young man opposite him, the little duke of the Minas family, Roddy.
"Your fists are still so hard, Roddy."
The crown prince looked at Roddy, his eyes were gentle, and then grinned, at this moment, he actually turned around and sat on the chair, and then ripped the button on the neckline.
"You should fight."
Roddy stood there with an angry expression on his face: "I remember, I warned you that if you let my sister be wronged again, I will definitely make you suffer." ” Garcia still looked calm, he smiled, and threw the handkerchief on the table: "I have to attend a banquet in a while, and you have delayed my time." ” "Fuck the party" Roddy said angrily: "Yesterday my sister came home, although I don't know what happened, but she hid in the room and cried all night Garcia, what did you do to her" On the crown prince's face, which was always like an ancient well, suddenly showed a mocking smile: "What did I do to her Roddy, you are so stupid It is because I didn't treat her that she cried" Roddy blushed and couldn't speak, only staring at Garcia fiercely.
A strange smile flashed in Garcia's eyes, and then he sighed: "Okay, I'll tell you too, this is the last time you'll hit me." ” He stood up, walked to the mirror, looked in the mirror, made a grinning motion, saw that the corners of his eyes were a little bruised, seemed to be a little dissatisfied, and frowned: "I'm serious, this is the last time you offend me."
I've always allowed you to mess around, because you're Roddy.
I don't have many friends, and you can say that you are the only one. ” "Hmph, I've never considered you a friend."
Roddy couldn't help but stab the other party: "Since Daphany married you, you have treated her badly, and you are no longer my friend" "It doesn't matter."
The crown prince smiled faintly: "I understand, so I won't blame you."
But I also tell you that this is the last time I will tolerate your disrespect for me, the last time. ” "Hmph, what if there is a next time" Luo Di sneered: "You are the crown prince, the future emperor, are you going to punish me severely?"
"No, I wouldn't do that."
The crown prince's tone was gentle: "But, next time, I will fight back." ” He smiled lightly, turned around and walked in front of Roddy, his tone was soft and kind: "Roddy, it's better not to do that kind of thing, because, I don't like to attack people, and you know that I don't like to use force, and I don't like to hurt my friends, so please don't push me again." ” After speaking, the crown prince's eyes became indifferent, turned his head, turned his back to Luo Di, looked at himself in the mirror carefully, and coldly threw a sentence: "After speaking, you can bow back, remember your identity and demeanor, Luo Di, you will be the one who will be a duke in the future, and you will be an example for the nobles of my Byzantine Empire." ” Roddy's face was pale, his fists clenched, but he finally didn't say a word, snorted, turned his head and rushed out of the door. rushed out of the crown prince's room in one breath, and in the strange eyes of many guards and servants outside, Luo Di rushed to the lobby downstairs and ran out of the crown prince's palace through the door, only then did he feel the depression in his chest feel a little lighter.
He really wanted to rush up and give him two more punches just now but he didn't know why, at that moment, although the crown prince turned his back to him, Luo Di clearly saw the face of the crown prince in the mirror The face was smiling Although this meticulous guy has not usually smiled, the smile in his usual words is the kind of etiquette smile, even when he laughs, there is no trace of smile in his eyes But just now, the face of the crown prince in the mirror was really smiling at himself, full of mockery, full of disdain, and smiling so unscrupulously and so inscrutablely That kind of laughter was full of a condescending taste, as if he was facing an insignificant ant crawling in front of him At that moment, Luo Di didn't know what was going on, and his heart was suddenly depressed and uncomfortable, a familiar sense of oppression spread all over his body, and he couldn't beat his clenched fists, as if a latent consciousness told himself that if he dared to do it, then something terrible would definitely happen next Such a smile, that unfathomable look, faintly familiar.
It seems that there is someone else who knows him, and he laughs like this After thinking about it carefully for a while, Luo Di's whole body suddenly became cold, and cold sweat welled up on his body Come to think of it Yes, it's Cavishir The crown prince smiled in the mirror, and that smile looked like that horrible old fellow of Cavishir In front of the mirror, the crown prince rearranged his clothes with the help of his servants, and a delicate young servant carefully picked out a box of cool anointing oil with his little finger and carefully applied it to the corners of the crown prince's swollen eyes.
The crown prince looked coldly in the mirror, no matter how he tried to hide it, the bruises in the corners of his eyes could not be eliminated immediately.
"My dear steward."
The crown prince called in a low voice, and the steward immediately stood behind him with his head bowed.
"I need you to do something, you do it yourself."
"Yes, Your Highness."
The steward hastened to respond.
The crown prince took a breath, his voice was slow and his tone was tepid: "Go to my dear wife, and tell her that because of her lack of restraint, I have been wounded by her dear brother, and so, in order to punish her for such immodest behavior, I want her to stay in the castle, preferably not to go out for a month, and to reflect on it."
I am sure that my dear wife will be considerate of me in making such a request. ” The manager shook his body.
He is the old man next to Garcia, and he has followed the crown prince for more than 20 years, so he is familiar with the surname of the crown prince, although the crown prince has never been happy or angry, but he has been by his side for many years, and he can also grasp some signs of the change in the mood of this royal highness from some details.
This highness, whenever he is the most angry, will appear slower on the surface, and the slower the tone of his speech, which means that the more angry he is in his heart Especially with a title like "dear", once he says it, it means that this highness is already furious.
The chief steward trembled and quickly bowed his head in response.
"Alright, don't tidy up."
The crown prince suddenly turned away from the mirror, leaving the many servants standing by the mirror stunned.
"With this kind of demeanor, I can't attend the banquet, so cancel it."
The crown prince sighed and walked to the window: "Everyone goes out, and the chief stays." ” When the servants cautiously withdrew, the chief steward stood behind the crown prince: "Your Highness, you" "I'm going to go out for a while."
The crown prince turned around and looked at the old steward who had followed him for twenty years, and he seemed to have a trace of genuine tiredness in his eyes: "I need to go and take a break."
Well, you know where I am, and if there's something, you cover it up for me. ” As he spoke, he walked in front of the old manager, stretched out his hand and pressed on the other party's shoulder, at this moment, the gentleness in his eyes was the true expression, and he whispered: "Jacques, I'm tired." ” Chief Jacques's face changed, he hesitated for a moment, and finally sighed, raised his hand, pressed the hand of the crown prince on his shoulder, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, I understand. ” "Well, it's not that you're tired, it's here."
Garcia pointed to his heart, and at this moment, his face turned pale.
Then he swept his eyes over and looked at Jacques Chief: "Actually, Jacques, I know, you have always been afraid in your heart, because you know my secret, so you have always been afraid of me, afraid that I will kill you, right?"
Jacques' face trembled, and he suddenly fell to his knees with a thud.
"No, Jacques."
