[West Fantasy] The noble lady who was divorced became rich

"As for your question, I can only answer - when Obstar will draw out the eastern half of the land, and when will Odin's army arrive." Fake smile: "Since we will sit here, don't write a blank check to each other."

The Countess of Sarandon knew that King Obsta was in a hurry, because the saint's parade ceremony was very close at hand, and the common people still worshiped the saint, so Cantero was very likely to pass the saint in Orb Political propaganda is carried out in the territory of Star, so he urgently needs an unprecedented victory to win the hearts of the people, and prevent the Obstars from being coaxed by the saint to go to Cantero.

However, for Odin's little emperor, the current situation is nothing short of imminent.

Not to mention that he betrayed the treaty with the Grand Duchess of Aquique in order to form an alliance with Obsta, thus missing the Duchy of Britannia and the Grand Duchy of Aquique that was about to be acquired.

Just the risk of sending troops to Cantero rashly is enough to make Odin's nobles quarrel.

After all, people are not cheap resources like wheat that will grow in a year, and the manpower, material resources, and financial resources spent on sending troops to Cantero must be borne by someone.

In short, the opposing nobles need the emperor to give them a reason to make money without losing money.

Because those who support the alliance between the emperor and Obstar are middle- and lower-class nobles who want to take the opportunity to shuffle their cards.However, the big families who really master Odin's resources are more cautious, and it is more difficult to let go in the face of big risks and benefits. Therefore, they not only stand on the front line against the alliance with Obstar, but even stand in the front line of Odin's little emperor and Mariana. After retiring the marriage, he also obstructed not to pass the alliance agreement between the little emperor and Obstar.

The irony is that these nobles, who should have been regarded as a serious concern by the little emperor, inadvertently won the possibility for Odin to continue negotiating with Obsta.

Otherwise, once Odin signs the first version of the alliance agreement, he may work for Obstaba in a short period of time.

After all, in the first version of the alliance agreement, it did not stipulate whether Princess Innes's dowry should be paid immediately, or part of it should be paid immediately.

King Obstar, the chicken thief, directly included all the promised things in his daughter's dowry, so according to the relevant laws and contract content, it is possible for the dowry to be given before the little emperor of Odin and Princess Innes formally get married. withdrawn or not honored immediately.

Fortunately, Odin's little emperor was only deprived of his wits for a while, and the nobles in the country who insisted on making promises put him under a lot of pressure, so after he broke off the engagement with Marianne, he quickly discovered that the first version of the alliance agreement Loophole, requiring King Obstar to modify it.

"If you want to get Odin's reinforcements, apart from immediately setting aside half of the land in the east, you also have to cut off Odin's economic support for Obstar." The Countess of Sarandon threw out the minimum standard for Odin to agree to form an alliance: "After all, you didn't pay Princess Innes' dowry, and even the emperor of our country has to bear all the expenses of Princess Innes after she gets married, so there is no reason for you to take advantage of the economy."

"But ma'am, I think you are well aware of Obstar's financial situation." Faced with Countess Sarandon's proposal, King Obstar did not feel relaxed, even heavier than when they first started talking : "Obusta has exhausted all his money in the war against Cantero, so he can't afford Innes' dowry at all."

"But you still maintain the ostentation of Queen Mary." The Countess of Sarandon has seen the scene of Queen Mary dealing with Cantero, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is selling jewelry to support the frontline soldiers: "Besides paying Yin In addition to the dowry of Princess Ness, our emperor also proposed a third solution."

"what?"

"Princess Innes will not be allowed to sign the renunciation of priority of succession."

"It's impossible." King Obstar frowned more seriously than when he heard the word "dowry": "You know very well that the council of nobles will never allow me to do this, and it's not I alone have the final say."

According to the current "Law of Inheritance to the Throne", unless Felipe, Count Calda, and Mariana, who are behind Innes, all agree to let Innes be exempted from being descended after marriage, this proposal will not even There is no possibility of handing over to the noble council.

As for making Odin's little emperor suffer...

The Countess of Sarandon didn't even smirk, and said with a cold face: "Since you can't even meet this request, then I have to go back to the country and ask the emperor and the Senate for their opinions."

The implication is that our two talks have collapsed, so Odin intends to procrastinate and refuse to admit it.

"Please."

Perhaps it was Mariana who gave King Obstadt confidence, or that King Obstadt had lived to this age, and the most important thing was his own face, so he resolutely agreed to Countess Sarandon's request to withdraw.

However, what King Obstar never expected was that the niece whom he had given high hopes for was already ready to flee.

……

"What are you doing?" Botis watched as Marianna arrived home, and then began to pack her luggage.

Because the camouflage props given by the doctor can only be used for two hours a day, it greatly limits the time for Mariana's activities outside.In addition, this neurotic woman is always worried that someone will assassinate her or kidnap her, so since arriving in Obstar, Abigail has been working overtime to act as Mariana's double, releasing smoke after smoke Play to confuse the other party.

Fortunately, because of the recent poisoned alcohol incident, the war between Prince Liam and Prince Abel has reached a fever pitch, and the Cantero spies who want to stir up trouble in the royal city are also very interested in Prince Abel. With Queen Polina jumping around in the court, it has weakened the public's attention to Mariana and reduced the risk of her being killed.

"Prepare to evacuate before the riots in the royal city." After such an experience, Mariana really felt that outside the mother country, there would always be troublesome people who wanted to harm me: "Didn't you say that? There is already an army stationed in the royal city, so I'm still staying here." What are you doing here? Waiting to be cleaned up?"

Mariana pressed down on the overstuffed suitcase, almost breaking the straps on it, but turned out a few cards hidden inside.

"what is this?"

Botis bent down to pick up the fallen cards, only to find that they were all broken into two without exception.

And it was still cut horizontally from the neck of the card character.

"Two princes and one princess." Botis recognized the identity of the card characters, and gestured to Mariana: "This is not a good omen."

"So run away," Mariana said, jumping and pressing down on the box that couldn't close.

With a not-so-clear "click", Abigail walked out of the secret room with a tired face, and asked Marianne in surprise, "What are you doing?"

The little witch glanced at the suitcase in front of her, she seemed to be speechless, but she also seemed to give up on herself: "Are you addicted to running away?"

"It's the same in Colin, and it's still the same in Obsta. I don't think you should be called the Duchess of Brittania or 'Miss Abandoned', just 'The Duchess on the Run'." Abigail, who was so busy that he didn't touch the ground, didn't have a good face towards Botis. After beating Marianna, he pointed to the devil in the direction of the secret room: "Bai Xue and I caught a scavenger's disciple. , you'd better go for an interrogation."

Botis glanced at Mariana, and entered the secret room without thinking.

And after Botis left, Bai Xue, who had been hiding in Abigail's sleeve, jumped onto Marianne, like a lost dog meeting its owner on the street.

"Okay, take it easy, take it easy." Mariana patted Bai Xue's head, motioned him to stop licking his wrist, and then asked Abigail, "Why, with your ability, you only caught the scavenger disciple, did not catch the scavenger himself?"

"That guy is more cautious than I thought, and he doesn't treat his disciples as human beings, so I listened to you and didn't stay there too long." Abigail knew that Mariana would not blame her for this, after all, for the loss of a scavenger A general under his knee is definitely a thankless task.

"Also, the dark thread on Lucius' side is also involved. I guess, no, there must be shadows of the Cantero people in the civil strife in Obstar." Abigail said here, still very disgusted: "Can you stop being so tired after you separate?"

"Anne Lavard Marley."

"Lucia."

"This pseudonym is for fear that others will not know who you are."

"No way, this is what Lucius decided, and as a vested interest, I can't pick and choose." Mariana took the information report that Abigail got, roughly scanned the content on it, and finally satisfied Nodded: "Now we can confirm their rebellion, and then get the evidence of their collaborating with the enemy and treason first."

"Why, do you want to use treason as an excuse to execute batch after batch of people who stand in the way like in Obstar?" Abigail held the teacup in a very twisted posture, and kindly suggested: " Don't kill so often, you'll scare some people."

"But I don't like the practice of cutting the weeds but not the roots." Mariana put the secret letter on the candle and burned it up.

Because this kind of thing with secret magic will only display the content in the hands of specific people, it is very troublesome to transport, and Mariana is not at ease to let ordinary people take over.

"But you're right, it's not good to clear it up too fast." Mariana stared at the ashes of the secret letter and said thoughtfully: "Even if the people of Obsta do not like a person who does nothing and only cares about his own face." The king will not welcome a queen who comes to power and purges."

After all, the shadow of Queen Mary's old age still lingers in the hearts of some Obstaians, so letting those collaborators and treasonous bastards die in the riots is also considered a kindness.
