"Ah sneeze! Who is scolding me?" Mariana, who was playing cards with Abigail, sneezed inexplicably, feeling a bad premonition in her heart.

"You've returned to the court of Aquique. Besides Prince Henry, who else will scold you for nothing." Abigail wanted to take advantage of Mariana's distracted time to fish in troubled waters, but the moment she reached out her hand, Mary Anna snapped hard.

"If you dare to cheat, don't even think about getting back the lost money." Mariana shook the room age and let the maid who served this floor come in.

"Your Highness." The soft-handed maid bowed to Marianne, then looked at Abigail who was sitting still, trying her best to hide her deep disdain.

"Come over with something to eat." Mariana knew what the maid was thinking without turning her head, but she and Abigail didn't care about the eyes of others, so the person who should order would continue to order: "By the way, heat two glasses of milk, and remember to add one Two spoonfuls of sugar, one cup of no sugar."

Mariana played the last few cards, and then, under Abigail's painful eyes, took all the chips on the table to her side.

"I won't play anymore, I won't play any more. Every time I play cards with you, I will lose so much that I doubt my life." After the maid left, Abigail threw all the cards in her hand on the coffee table, and then lay down on Mariana On the bed: "The days of the Grand Duchy of Aquique are really more boring than I thought, obviously we have a lot of things to do in Odin."

"Boring? You feel bored after only a few days?" Mariana put away the cards on the table, a little bit dumbfounded: "When we were in Odin, you always complained that your time was taken up by boring entertainment, why? Back to the Grand Duchy of Aquique, where you don’t need to socialize, do you feel that life is too boring?”

Mariana adjusted the hem of her nightgown and lay down next to Abigail.

"Why don't we move to Colin?" Mariana suggested, "Or go to Heihe? I remember that there is a good ranch there, and we can even go to the nearby Black Iron City."

"Forget it, these two places are next to your ex-fiancé's territory, in case we meet someone serious, neither of us will be able to leave." Abigail thought of her experience in the city of black iron, She couldn't help covering her face with a pillow, which made Mariana very worried that she would be suffocated to death.

"The Cantero people are not cute little people." Abigail still remembers her experience of being tied up in the central square of the Cantero capital and almost being burned alive by the Cantero patriarch.

Unlike the Grand Duchy of Aquique, Odin, and even Obstar, which are relatively open due to trade or proximity to the center of the continent, Cantero, which is located in the southernmost part, is not only martial, but also far away in religious belief due to geographical reasons. More conservative than other southern countries.

Mariana remembers her time at Cantero as difficult.Because Patriarch Cantero couldn't understand the "degenerate" life of the Archduchess Aquique, and thought she was not a good wife in the traditional sense, he never had a good face towards Mariana.However, when Seis of Cantero publicly repented of the marriage and planned to be engaged to the pope's illegitimate daughter, the Patriarch of Cantero, who disliked Mariana, was the first to express his opposition.

"If I go to a place like Heihe where I can only hunt, I will definitely be watched as a different kind." Abigail pulled off the pillow on her face, and almost hit Marianna because of her arm movements too much.

"Be careful." Mariana slapped Abigail's stomach lightly with a pillow in dissatisfaction, causing the latter to twist into a shrimp on the bed, and almost jumped up and rushed towards Mariana.

"You..."

Abigail had just roared when she was interrupted by a knock on the door.

"Your Highness, the supper you wanted is here." The voice from the door did not belong to the maid in charge of this floor, but the head maid of Grand Duke Aquique.

Abigail quickly climbed down from the bed, straightened her dress, and smoothed her broken hair.

"Come in." Marianna cleared her throat and motioned Abigail to hide in the direction of the curtains.

The head maid who was allowed glanced at the slightly messy bedroom, put down the tray in her hand, and said in a low voice: "The Duchess of Brittania has a miscarriage."

Marianne froze slightly when she was about to get out of bed, and then asked, "Auntie, is she still alive?"

"I heard that she was temporarily rescued by the priests of Solins, but she won't live long." The head maid knew that not many people would care whether the Duchess of Brittania was alive or not.Especially for those who want to get their hands on the title of Brittany, Mariana's aunt only has a small role in leaving a will.

only……

"Richard may join forces with the Prince Regent of Brittania."

Because when Mariana's grandfather died, the nobles in the country wanted to prevent Mariana's grandmother from coming back, so they appointed the old Duke's half-brother as Brittany before the news of the old Duke's death spread. Regent of the Duchess of Asia.

In the next 30 years, the Prince Regent of Brittania also refused to return power to his niece due to the health of the Duchess, so the Duchess of Brittania had many conflicts with her uncle in recent years.

Although under the pressure of all parties, the Prince Regent of Brittany reluctantly gave up part of his power, but after the abortion of the Duchess of Brittania, his anxiety about the future was no less than that of almost everything. Lose Richard.

"If these two join forces...then the first thing to do is to pull the mother who is in her prime from the position of the first heir."

After all, compared to Prince Henry, who is not smart enough, and Mariana, who is five years away from adulthood, the Grand Duchess Aquique is undoubtedly more difficult to deal with and harder to control.

Even the Regent of Britannia dared to guarantee that the Grand Duchess Aquique would make an example of him after inheriting the title.

Although nominally, the Duke of Brittany is a vassal of Thorins, but the old saying goes well - "My vassal is not your vassal".

If Richard of Solins really dared to "help" the "Regent" of Britannia, then the Grand Duchess Aquique would have evidence that the Regent of Britannia was "collaborating with the enemy and treason". The Regent of Brittania could be put to death without even a noble trial.

And if Richard of Solins does not lend a helping hand, then the Grand Duchess Aquique is also happy to let those nobles who are uncertain about what it means to be disobedient.

As for why the Duchess of Brittania is not as strong as the Grand Duchess of Aquique.Gein's mother couldn't leave her too much political team, and her physical condition didn't allow her to spend too much energy on government affairs, so she gave the regent of Brittania an opportunity .
