The Sensory Animals of Ston Hill

Grace ran out of the conference room.

The servants waited outside while the adults were in meeting.Eva and Anna were also there, and when they saw him coming out, they immediately went up to meet him and told him that His Majesty had gotten up and was waiting for him.

Grace brushed Eva's hand away, and saw that Alan Ston and his adjutant had already reached the stairs and were about to go upstairs.

He yelled over there, "Alan!" and ran towards him.

Alan Stone stopped, turned his head and glanced at him, and then said a few words to his adjutant.The adjutant left, and he stood by himself waiting for Grace to come running.

But Grace stopped when she was still some distance away, because Alan Stone looked too serious, like he would face someone in a meeting.

But the young captain quickly smiled, his usual unprincipled smile, the corners of his mouth were not at the same height, showing his white teeth.He smiled and said to Grace: "Miss Nakoren is catching up in such a hurry, is she going to have another mental arithmetic contest with me?"

Grace couldn't help but also laughed, "Don't call me that!" At the same time, she ran up to him briskly, with a guilty expression on her face, "I didn't mean to confront you just now, and I didn't expect that my words would cause trouble. Your proposal has been dismissed."

Alan Stone looked down at him for two seconds, took his arm and led him into the empty room next to him, closing the door.

"Didn't you mean it?" he asked Grace. "I thought you were supporting William."

"Really not!" Grace was worried that he would think so, and hurriedly explained: "You forgot what I said? I suggested to reserve good seeds for farmers, thinking that it would not cost money, but who knows This proposal will not work, and military expenditures will be involved, how can I understand these things?"

Alan Ston smiled after hearing this, with more teeth than the smile just now, really happy.

At this time, the door was knocked, and Eva's voice came from outside the door, saying that she and Anna wanted to ask Grace what she needed.

Allen smiled and said, "Your maid is really loyal."

Grace opened the door and told the two girls to wait outside.Eva glanced into the room, called "Captain Ston", and then whispered to Grace: "This is not good, others will see you and Captain Ston enter this room, if you are the only ones in the room Two words—"

"Oh, Eva, you are more nagging than the old lady! Wait a little longer, I have something important to tell him!" After finishing speaking, Grace shut the two girls out again.

"What important things do you want to tell me? Do you have mental arithmetic skills?" Alan Stone asked him with a smile.

Grace walked closer to him, and whispered with a serious face: "Princess Elizabeth and Princess Sophia are not His Majesty's children."

The smile on Alan Stone's face immediately retracted, "Why do you think so?"

Because His Majesty encountered that misfortune ten years ago, while Princess Elizabeth was only six years old, and Princess Sophia was even younger, only four years old.

His Majesty must have lied, either to Grace or to everyone else.Grace leans towards the latter.

But he can't say that, he wants to keep it a secret for His Majesty.

"Because your majesty has dark eyes, and both princesses are light; and your majesty does not seem to care about the two children, and hardly looks at them, and does not speak to their mother."

Alan Ston laughed, "This is not a basis, children's eyes are not always consistent with their father." He looked at Grace's eyes and said: "For example, William and I have blue eyes, and you ..." He paused, "It was green..."

Old Ston must have charmed the wealthy young lady and later Mrs. Ston by his charming eyes, and stood out from the crowd of suitors.So the three children he gave birth to have such beautiful eyes.

Allen was fascinated by Grace's eyes.

Grace thought he was absent-minded, and said unhappily: "Of course I know this! But the eyes of the mothers of the two princesses are also dark! And their looks don't have any resemblance to His Majesty..."

Alan Stone came back to his senses, his face gradually became serious, "Are you sure? The eyes of the two ladies..."

"Sure!" Grace nodded vigorously, "I often see them at banquets, and I have a good memory. The eyes of both ladies are brown, and I can't remember wrongly."

"Grace, this is a very serious matter. Even if it is your guess, you can't just tell others."

"I know! So I just told you, do you believe my guess?"

Alan Stone replied skillfully: "I will keep it in my heart first." Then he asked again: "But, Grace, why didn't you tell William?"

Because these things would remind people of his intimacy with His Majesty, Grace thought to herself, and he didn't want to see that lonely expression on William's face.But this is a very important matter, so he would rather risk being ridiculed by Alan Stone.

Alan Stone was so sharp, he could guess what he was thinking after staring at him for a while, and couldn't help laughing at himself.For a moment just now, Allen really assumed beyond his control, thinking that Grace's trust in him had surpassed that of William.But of course this is impossible.

His reaction made Grace feel a little uncomfortable and wanted to open the door to let Eva and Anna in.

"Don't go yet, Grace, I also have something very serious to tell you." Alan Ston grabbed his wrist, "If the meeting finally decides to go to the Southern Province to quell the chaos first, I will apply to lead the army, and It will definitely be approved."

"why!"

"Because I have been there once, I have experience, I understand the situation there, and I can understand the dialect there." He smiled again, "Look at your expression, it seems that I am going to die...Okay, Greg Lace, I won't tease you anymore, I just ask you a question."

"If it's a war with an enemy country, William will apply to go to the front; if it's going to the Southern Province, it will be me... If you knew this before, would you still say those things at today's meeting?" Alan Si Dun stared closely at Grace's face. He didn't know why he would ask such a strange question, but he still couldn't help saying what he wanted to know the most: "If William and I must go to the battlefield , who do you want?"

Grace covered her mouth with one hand, turned and ran to the door, and opened it with force.Both Eva and Anna thought that he was not feeling well, so they hurriedly supported his arm.

"Master Allen, what did you say to scare people again?" Anna complained.

"I didn't scare her," Alan Stone put his hands in his trouser pockets, and said to Anna with a smile, "I just asked her a question, a joking question."

He repeated the question to Anna again.

Anna whispered "My God" and kept drawing the cross on her chest, "Master Allen, please don't ask such terrible questions again! If I had to choose, I only hope that both you and Master William Don't go to the battlefield! You and Master William must stay here, this is the best!"

Grace turned her back to the room, resting her forehead on Eva's shoulders, and heard Alan Stone say with a laughing voice behind him: "Look, this question is actually not that difficult, and Anna can answer it very easily." good."

On the same day, when Grace was having lunch with His Majesty, documents related to the promotion of vaccinia in the countryside were delivered to His Majesty's table.In the afternoon, the documents related to the suppression of the rebellion in the Southern Province were also drawn up, and Grace saw His Majesty sign it with her own eyes.The leader was none other than Captain Alan Stone.
