The Amber Sword

"Betty, you are back."

As soon as the maid with a pleasing round face came into the room, she was surrounded by several other maids and greeted with a greedy greeting. Betty patted the apron, raised her eyebrows and glanced at the hostess in the house, and made a snoring gesture to the other sisters, and whispered, "Shh, I ask you, Lord Earl after I leave. Did she take a good rest? "

Hearing this question, the sisters immediately became frowning. Since Akane was placed under house arrest by Her Majesty, she looked very depressed all the time, and sometimes she spoke to her spear who did not know where to come from. It made them all suspicious and wondered if the Earl had something wrong with their brains. They report her daily routine to Her Majesty Her Majesty-Her Majesty still clearly cares about this adult, at least she never gave it up to outsiders, and every time she was busy, she took the time to listen to Betisa in person Reported-but with regard to the eccentricity of the Earl, Her Majesty did not say anything, they naturally did not dare to pretend to speculate.

But Qian was always depressed, didn't eat much, and slept very little, which caused them a headache.

When Betty saw the sisters' faces, she understood something, and she sighed, "Oh, let the Count rest for a while. Don't make any more noise. She must be homesick, but her queen is not. Allow her to go back. "

"Yes, yes," the maids replied in unison: "Our children in the mountains are always homesick, and I often remember the maple trees in my hometown."

Another maid looked at Betty's face, and whispered, "Betty, you don't look very good, is Her Majesty in a bad mood?"

"Shh," Betty glanced at the maid. "Don't talk nonsense, but Her Majesty's mood is quite bad today."

"What's wrong?" The question seemed to arouse the curiosity of the maids, and they hurriedly lowered their voices and asked.

"It's not because of that Earl." Betty sighed. She didn't know that this was the first time she sighed, as if Her Majesty's bad mood had affected her.

"And the Count from the country again?"

"Be quiet, silly," Betty said. "The Earl is from Eruin. Do you know Eruin, that is a small kingdom to the south of the empire, by the way, our Earl is also from there Come, do n’t you let her hear you say her hometown, what an earl from the country, it ’s ugly. ”

The maids were startled, with a look of lingering fear on their faces, and even looked like a thief guilty.

But they found that Akane didn't seem to be relieved after listening to them, and quickly turned back and asked, "Betisa, tell us soon, what about the Earl?"

Akane was placed under house arrest in the courtyard of this old castle. Naturally, these maids could not leave, except that Betty had to take a carriage to the Rose Garden to meet her Majesty every so often. And their young girls are an era full of liveliness and curiosity, so the fresh things outside are more attractive to them, even if it is a sesame-sized thing, Bettysa is a little older, seeing these The companion's poor eyes only responded: "The Earl captured the local gentry and aristocrats in Seroff. When I went there, I saw the Duke of Parut suing His Majesty in the Rose Garden. "" She said here, suddenly showing a bright smile, full of disrespect to the Lord Duke said: "You have not seen Lord Duke's impatient look, I have never seen him like this."

"Betty, do you say that the Earl has come to Seroff?" The maids seemed to be accustomed to such news, and they were not surprised at all, as if the nobles of the South had been farted and urinated since half a month ago. It became a routine meal, and it became a laugh after dinner for everyone in the whole Wang. Instead, they noticed another point and asked curiously: "So, we have less than a month to see that. Lord Earl? "

"Before he completely annoyed her Majesty," Betty waved her lips, and when Duke Parut and Her Majesty talked, she dared to stand and look down, but this did not prevent her from hearing how bad Her Majesty was, not to mention The face of Her Majesty, who she saw secretly, also proved this-she was already cold, and today it was colder than in the past, enough to make people look at the teeth and couldn't help fighting. She thought for a moment, adding with a little bit of anxiety: "If the Earl is not caught by His Majesty and hanged, maybe we hope to see him."

"Betty, what are you talking about?" At this time, a slightly low voice came over.

All the maids were frightened. They had discussed too intensely before, and didn't notice when Qian had come over. The mountain girl stood at the door of her room and looked at them. The maids were frightened. Like the sparrows, they closed their mouths one by one and let the room quiet down.

Betty glanced at her indifferent companions with a bad temper, and then whispered to Akane, "Master."

"Are you discussing Alluin?" Akane didn't care about it, but stared at her, asking in a hurry.

After all, Lord Earl must have heard it, Bettysa thought. But she didn't dare to lie, and answered honestly, "Yes, Earl."

"Tell me the truth." Qian said with a pale face. In fact, she often can't sleep well these days. As soon as she closed her eyes, she thought of the Lord Lord and disturbed her.

"We are talking about an Earl from Eruin."

"An Earl from Eruin?" As soon as she heard this, Akane rushed to Betisa in three unusual steps and two steps. She clutched the round-faced maid like a ghost. Arm asked loudly.

"Yeah!" Betty had never seen Akane look like this, and couldn't help but startled.

"Where is that Earl?"

"Master, I don't know. Her Majesty the Queen and the noble adults did not mention, I dare not ask." Betty quickly answered.

Akane pursed her lips and didn't speak. The girl's keen premonition made her grab something, but she couldn't figure out how to ask questions.

Betty looked at the Earl tremblingly. She came into contact with the other's determined and longing eyes, and seemed to understand all of a sudden, and asked, "Master, you want to hear him. Deeds? "

Akane nodded seriously.

"Okay, that's it ..." Betty took a deep breath and slowly spoke.

...

After the departure of Duke Parut, Constance was a little embarrassed, and at this time Fiona, the prince of the empire known as the "Little Nederland", just walked into this Her Majesty's Queen in the Rose Garden. Dedicated study, the Supreme Lord of the Empire looked at Convenience and asked, "What's the matter, Lord Prime Minister, is there any new trouble caused by Lord Earl?"

Nederman Jr. looked at the Queen with a little surprise. Before he came, he heard that his Majesty was furious, but now it seems far from the same thing. His Majesty has not lost his temper, and he seems to be in a good mood. . But even so, he didn't dare to relax a little, and quickly and respectfully gave a salute, and then replied a little awkwardly, "Your Majesty, you are as good as God, indeed, the Lord Earl brought the nobleman of Seroff After we detained them, another group of young people wanted to take revenge on him, but it was a pity that he was taken hostage. I heard that the nobles in the south had taken the Count and had no temper, and were discussing to use ransom. Substitution, but the old duke seemed unable to pull this face. "

The old duke in his mouth is naturally the previous generation of the Parut family. The Parut family is the representative of the emerging nobles of the Cruz Empire. They are very close to the local nobles in the south. It is no secret that Her Majesty the Queen It was because of this that they helped them become an important force in the court.

"What children were caught?" Constance asked casually.

"It's mainly the Alcons family and the Jien family. Her Majesty, the Duchess is of the Jien family." Fiona Nederwin reminded.

"I don't need your reminder, I naturally know that," Her Majesty replied, "These self-righteous guys, dare not even look at the guests I invited, and let them suffer."

Little Nevin seemed to understand the context, and quickly replied: "Your Majesty is right, but the Lord Earl is really too indifferent to the empire. He came all the way, and the nobles of the empire could not stand it. "

"Hum," the Silver Queen snorted softly. "It is normal to be young and vigorous, but his grandfather was much calmer than him at that time. It doesn't matter. Capable people can be forgiven for being untamed. The empire is still It ’s not that much. It ’s not too much. But do n’t call him too much. He just wants to draw our attention, but it ’s unbearable for every envoy to come to this empire. The local legions of the army strengthened their guards, so that even a single Eruin could step on their faces, and Count Alcons and Count Jien were not ashamed. "

The Prime Minister of the Empire couldn't help but grin: "This Count is really not sure how to describe it. He actually did such a thing, even I almost thought he was a lunatic."

"He's not crazy," Constance replied, "the Count knows the Empire well, he knows how we won't take him, and this little guy is very decent, outsiders can't see it, I don't believe you I can't see yet, Lord Prime Minister. "

There was a fine layer of cold sweat on Little Ford's forehead immediately. He knew in his heart, don't look at the Supreme Lord of the Empire talking with him here as if it were commonplace, but in fact, the Old Man's family was under the Queen It is a generally accepted fact that the status in the heart is not as good as the day, but because of a series of things that Brando has done these days, he has increased the number of times he met the Queen, and the relationship between the two parties has eased slightly. some. But the other person's words immediately made him nervous, and hurriedly replied carefully: "Your Majesty's eyes are like a torch, Lord Earl is the grandson of that person after all."

"Indeed." Her Majesty nodded, as if to take it for granted.

"Your Majesty, I heard you got angry again before I came." At this moment, Little Nevin asked carefully.

"how?"

"Your Majesty, your body."

"My health is good, I do n’t care about the old Prime Minister," Constance knew that this must be the word of Niederwin on behalf of his old Prime Minister. Although the young Prime Minister is not inferior to his father, he has the courage and courage. Much worse: "I am angry because the imperial nobles of the empire have their own faces trampled under their feet. Instead of thinking about how to regain their glory, they want to tie their gains and losses to the entire empire. The Cruz have not fallen to that extent. "

"They want to take revenge on that Earl, too. I don't think Archduke Parut will give up, Your Majesty." Nederman Jr. shook his head and answered.

"I hope he doesn't cause me too much trouble." Constance shook her head.

"Count Count Alcons and Count Gyne are decent," Nederman Jr. answered incorrectly.

Constance glanced at him and corrected: "I'm talking about him."

The imperial prime minister stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly.

Little Nevin stayed in Rose Garden for half an hour, and took the time to report to the supreme empire on the west and east of the battle situation-the lion is still attacking the white heart, the orcas fortress, and Compared to the decisiveness of their army, they can be described as slow progress. The wind elf's offensive persisted in the wilderness of the Four Realms. As one of the four main corps of the empire, the Red Army was not fame, and the mobilization in the empire was nearing completion. The atmosphere of the advent of the war was even in the remote areas. The area can be felt too.

After he said goodbye, Constance watched the empire's prime minister leave, and when the study room was empty, she tapped the armrest of the bench gently, and thought to herself.

"Is he really armed in heaven? Could it be that Joslin's old guy has secretly visited Eruin ...?"

"No, he will not be so superficial, Lord Gwendolyn, I have a faint feeling. He seems to be sending a signal to us. What does he want to express, or this is the attitude of the Eruin? ? "

Her cold voice echoed quietly in the empty study, but no one answered her question.

...

"Not only that."

The story in the room apparently has been going on for a while, but it is not over yet at half past one, and Bettysa continued: "Everyone thinks that Lord Earl is crazy, because he didn't get what he deserved. Courtesy and captured an empire fortress. God, before that, I always thought that our mountain people were the most rebellious people of the Empire. But I didn't expect to be nothing compared with the Lord Earl. "

"I heard that the Eruin had a great king. When he founded the country, he made an oath. The Eruin wanted to protect his people independently. I didn't expect it to be so." The round-faced little maid couldn't help but glanced at her lord, but she was disappointed to find that Qian was unmoved, and just asked indifferently: "What then?"

She sighed with disappointment and continued to answer: "Then the nobles of the Empire were certainly unwilling to give up, and they gathered an army to teach a lesser-looking foreigner. Of course, the results were not as good as they were What it means-as for the rest, I told you earlier, Lord Earl, that Lord Earl naturally captured them all, but not only that, they also took a large amount of ransom from their family as hostages. I also installed a name called 'loss of reputation' or 'mental loss' or something. "

Akane stunned as if she was electrocuted. She looked up at her maid and asked with some disbelief: "You said 'mental loss fee'? You haven't told me this before, Betty!"

"But this is not the point, Lord Earl ..."

Betty replied inexplicably, but she did not realize that the Earl in front of her had clenched her teeth.

When was it that she, the longest staying with Lord Lord, was used to those strange terms, and she once thought that it was Lord Lord's only bad habit.

But at this moment, those words that he used to sound so incomprehensible, at this moment it sounds so kind.

Betty was still talking nonchalantly: "According to me, the Lord Earl didn't actually need to offend the nobles of the empire so severely. After all, he was a foreigner, and he would be able to bear the power of the moment. . Her Majesty also made several fires because of this. There are several Duke adults who hate him for having to grit their teeth. The only commendable thing is that the Earl is out of the limelight, and now in the area near Rusta, I am afraid There are few people who don't know him. I really don't understand what he wants to do. "

When she was halfway talking, she suddenly froze, because she suddenly saw that the Count in front of her even burst into tears. She hurried, "Master, what are you doing, Lord?"

Akane shook her head vigorously.

Because she understands.

All that was done was just to tell her a word.

I've come, Akane.

As promised--
