Working Prophet

Vanessa didn't sleep a wink all night. Early the next morning, as soon as it was dawn, she ordered people to make a fire and cook, making final preparations for the attack on Teacup Castle.

The beautiful woman with lop-eared ears was helping her son, who had just woken up, get dressed in the tent.

Blanco's mental condition has been worrying since he lost the election. He has lost a lot of weight. He looks timid and afraid to look at others. At the slightest sign of trouble, he will be frightened and cry loudly. He goes to his mother. It made Vanessa feel distressed.

The beautiful woman with lop-eared ears first took off her son's pajamas and put on jodhpurs and a long, loose shirt. Then she put socks on Blanco's calves one by one, stuffed the breeches into the socks, and at the same time put the socks on. The belt on the trousers is fastened on the waistband of the trousers.

Then he puts on a robe, fastens it with a belt decorated with metal rabbits, and puts on the robe and cloak.

Vanessa put on the silver brooch for her son and comforted her, "Don't worry, Blanco, we will definitely be able to return to the castle today, and then you will be the master of the green field, just like your father."

"But, but, my sister Ilea..." the little boy couldn't help but tremble when he mentioned this name. "She has been appointed by Marquis Cullen as the head of the Arias family. Are we going to disobey the Marquis?" order?"

"Of course you must listen to what the Marquis says. The Arias family has been loyal to the Figuerola family for generations, and your generation is no exception. However, a wise man like the Marquis may be deceived by traitors. At this time, the ministers must speak out and persuade them. He remonstrated, and even took the initiative to bring order to the chaos in a timely manner.”

Blanco hesitated for a long time, and finally plucked up the courage to say the words he had been holding in his heart, "Mom, I don't want to be a lord anymore."

"Why?" Vanessa stopped moving her hands when she heard this, and her eyes became cold, "Who taught you to say that? Your great-grandmother, Knight Javier, or..."

"No one," Blanco gritted his teeth, "I want to say it myself, Mom, can't you stop? As long as my sister is still willing to let us live in the castle, our family can return to the life we ​​had in the past. Isn't it bad? You don't have any feelings for your sister at all, right? You told me before that your sister has no mother and you want me not to make her angry all the time."

"Silly boy, you are talking stupid things again." The lop-eared beautiful woman put the boots on her son's feet, took two steps back, took a closer look, and nodded with satisfaction.

Then he raised his face again and said calmly, "Once this kind of thing starts, it's impossible to stop. You will become a good lord in the future, Blanco."

She wanted to say something more, but then a deep and deep male voice came from outside the tent, "Madam, can we talk for a while?"

"I'll be right out, Knight Javier."

After Vanessa finished speaking, she said to Blanco, "Just stay here and stop thinking nonsense. We can go home in a while."

As soon as she walked out of the tent, the beautiful woman with lop-eared ears saw her military adviser pacing back and forth, trampling the grass in front of the door until it was almost bare.

As soon as Vanessa appeared, he couldn't wait to greet her, "Madam, I heard that you..."

The beautiful woman with lop-eared ears gestured to him, and the two of them walked another twenty meters before standing again.

"I heard that you had someone tie up the knight's wife, son, granddaughter, and grandson-in-law, and even brought their newborn child here." The slightly richer knight said while wiping the sweat from his head.

"Yeah, what's the problem?"

"I also heard that you planned to use them to threaten Alfred. If he was unwilling to open the city gate, you would order those people's heads to be chopped off."

"I said that too."

"Are you serious?" Knight Javier looked serious.

"Of course." Vanessa said, "Don't question my determination just because I'm just a woman."

"I don't question your determination, I just think this move may be a little inappropriate."

"What's wrong, that traitor Alfred can do it, but I can't do it? Don't forget that he started first, using his relatives as hostages, threatening those people in the castle to help him defend the city." The beautiful woman said coldly.

"Alfred's actions did discredit the knight," Javier pondered over his words, "but at least according to the current news in the city, he didn't really kill anyone, even Barbara who has never surrendered." Knight Bro was just imprisoned by him, and he didn't miss two meals a day."

"What do you want to say?" Vanessa looked directly at her military advisor.

The latter was sweating even more, but he still said, "I want to say that if you insist on doing this in your capacity... it's not very good-looking, especially because there are babies under the moon inside. Now the people below have A lot is being discussed."

"You think I like to do this? If you can fulfill your duties and help me take down the castle in front of me earlier, all of this will naturally not happen." The beautiful woman with lop ears interrupted the knight.

"Since your solution doesn't work, I can only solve it now. As for those gossips, when we take down Teacup Fort, I will teach them what respect is."

Knight Javier sighed. He knew that persuasion was useless. Vanessa was determined to capture the castle today, and she would not hesitate to gain notoriety for it.

In fact, the relationship between him and Alfred was not very close. The two had little contact before, and just three days ago, Alfred shot him with an arrow.

But one code leads to another, and now seeing that Alfred's family is about to suffer, as he is also a knight of the Arias family, Javier can't help but feel a sense of sadness.

When he returned to the army, several other knights came over and asked him about the results of his trip.

Javier shook his head and said to his colleagues, "Madam has made up her mind, everyone should think carefully about how to persuade Alfred to open the city gate later."

"Alfred wouldn't be Alfred if he could open the door." A knight nicknamed Purple Sparrow said, "That old guy has a very stubborn temper and only accepts death. He is Ilea's guardian knight and can only Listen to that little girl."

"Even if his family's life is threatened?"

"Even if you massacre his family until he is the only one left, he will not open the door." Ziquehua said.

"Oh my God!" Another knight nicknamed Golden Snake said, "Are we just going to sit back and watch the tragedy happen?"

"No way, who made Alfred go crazy first and capture the Teacup Castle belonging to the Arias family? Mrs. Vanessa denounced him as a traitor, even if all his relatives were killed, there would be no problem." Someone disagreed.

"That's true from Mrs. Vanessa's point of view, but if you are willing to look at it from another angle...he just took control of the castle one step ahead of schedule on the orders of the real master of Green Field."

"I thought we had reached a consensus on this issue. Ilea is not suitable to be in charge of this land. Russ thought so too, so he sent her to the temple." Another knight said. .

"But now it seems that her stepmother is not much better." Ziquehua said, "I don't know what you think, but with all due respect, stupidity or madness, I would rather choose the former."

"Crazy and desperate." Golden Snake added, "She saw that she was losing the war, so she chose to make a desperate move."
