Working Prophet

Miss Rabbit didn't sleep well last night, and her brain reaction was a bit slow. After hearing what Edward II said, she was completely confused.

What's the situation? According to His Majesty the Emperor's wishes, it seems that he wants to give her Crab Corner, or to be precise, the entire New World.

This...this is too outrageous.

Even though Ilea had high expectations and fantasies about the final prize of this tournament, she was completely frightened.

As one of the twelve great nobles in the empire, the Weiting family was a behemoth that could stand on equal footing with the Figuerola family.

Their territory in the New World may not be as big as Figuerola's western territory, but it does have a long coastline and several excellent ports.

Countless caravans and ships dock for trade every day. In terms of prosperity, Crab Point alone can rival the entire Western Territory.

And Edward II actually planned to give her the crab horns?

It is true that the female lord likes money, but so much money makes her feel a little scary.

Military Minister Aulis was right. With the Arias family and her reputation and strength, how could He Dehe be able to make all the nobles in the New World bow their heads?

And just by winning the championship in the martial arts competition, there is no reason why he can reach the sky in one step.

The female lord was in a daze all the way. After returning to the tent, she told Li Yu about the incident, hoping that the prophet of Shuangxiu Sect could clear up her doubts.

And Li Yu did not disappoint her, he thought for a while.

"I remember that the Vespasian family and the Wettin family had a marriage. The Wettin family had produced several queens. Because of this relationship, Fitzwilliam and the others were able to escape and were eventually exiled to the West. "

"Huh?" Miss Rabbit didn't know what Li Yu meant by suddenly mentioning this matter.

But Gray Mane Wilder had already reacted first, "I see, His Majesty seems to have taken a liking to you."

"Your Majesty is attracted to me?" the female leader said loudly, "But he is too much older than me, and doesn't he have a wife?"

"No, it's not him, he probably wants you to marry one of his sons." Wilder analyzed, "It seems that the Vespasian family is also a little bit greedy for the trade and prosperity of the New World.

"But the elimination of the Weiting family has caused dissatisfaction among many big families. Just because Hilda lost her mind and launched a palace coup, it was difficult for everyone to speak for her.

"But if Edward II wants to take the opportunity to annex the New World, it is almost impossible. This is why he takes a fancy to you."

Ilea also came back to her senses at this time, "What you mean is that Edward II sealed the Crab Corner to me, but actually it was just to swallow the New World.

"When he lets one of his sons marry me, he will successfully become the new owner of the New World. Moreover, the Vespasian family and the Wettin family have been married many times. Now the royal family of the Vespasian family also has the same blood. The blood of the Wetting family.

"In this way, they also have the legal basis to rule the New World, and the nobles of the New World can't say anything."

"Wait a minute, if I really marry one of his sons, wouldn't it mean that according to the current laws of the empire, even the green fields will belong to my husband? I didn't get anything, and in the end I also lost my own family's territory. gone?"

The more the female lord thought about it, the angrier she became, "I am here fighting hard for the honor of the empire, and as an emperor, he just thinks about how to hide behind and take advantage of me?! This is too despicable!"

"It's not even mean..." Orwell, the wandering knight, said something fair.

"Being able to marry a prince is the dream of every girl on the mainland. And given your family, the fact that you can become a princess or even a queen is a great gift in the eyes of most people."

"I have no interest in this kind of gift." Miss Rabbit shook her head, "Whoever wants to marry a prince can marry him. Anyway, I won't marry, and he also covets my territory.

"Thankfully, I thought he just admired me and was kind to me."

"It's not surprising that Your Majesty is thinking about the New World. After all, there is huge wealth there, just like a gold mine. But your Majesty shouldn't be worried about your small area at all." Gray Mane said.

"If you really don't want to part with your Green Field, you can find another heir in the family and give that territory to him. In this way, the Green Field will still belong to the Arias family. I believe His Majesty will agree."

"No!" Miss Rabbit said firmly, "That place was left to me by my father, and no one can take it away from me."

Seeing that she seemed serious, Gray Mane was a little surprised, "This is an opportunity to become a royal concubine, aren't you tempted? If you want to be a lord so much, at worst, you can ask your husband for a city after marriage, and you can enjoy it as much as you want. .”

The hostess still shook her head.

"That's a bit troublesome," Orwell scratched his head. "His Majesty seems determined to win the New World. I'm afraid you are not very good at rejecting him."

Miss Rabbit also remembered the last time she went to Edward II to tell him that she wanted to withdraw from the tourney, but she failed. Now she is about to win the championship.

So can she really refuse the marriage arranged for her by Edward II? Ilea herself had some doubts.

She was so cruel that she took off the helmet on her head.

"Then I want everyone to see that I am disfigured, and I want to see which of his sons is willing to marry a disfigured woman!"

Miss Rabbit's hand shocked everyone in the tent. The female lord forced herself not to look in the direction of Li Yu, fearing that she would see disgust and disgust in Li Yu's eyes.

However, she couldn't help but took a peek and found that Li Yu was indeed looking at her, and he was looking at her very carefully.

Then he took out a small hose from his backpack and handed it to her hand.

"Is this the only wound on your neck? This is a burn ointment. You can apply it first. I will bring you some scar removal medicine next time you come. It's not a big problem."

The girl opened her mouth, "You, you..."

She wanted to say something, but then a guard walked into the tent and said that the jousting was about to begin.

So Ilea could only swallow back the words that were on her lips, put on her leather armor, checked her equipment, and walked out of the tent.

The deafening cheers sounded again! Ilea walked to the center of the competition field amid the cheers, but the hunchback on the other side did not show up for a long time.

The referee had to send someone to urge him again. After a while, a figure finally walked out of the tent.

But this time, he no longer stooped, straightened his back, and the bulge on his back disappeared, replaced by a pair of gray wings, like the wings of a goshawk.
