The Sensory Animals of Ston Hill

Grace felt someone approaching in her sleep and woke up instantly.

He opened his eyes and saw an unfamiliar maid with a strange expression on his face, as if he saw something that frightened and puzzled her.

Seeing that he was awake, the unfamiliar maid stretched out her hand timidly and pointed at him, "Your hair..."

Grace touched her hair and felt blood on her hand.He washed his hair last night and the wound opened.

Because the wife is ill, there is a ready doctor in the villa.The maid stood by and watched as the doctor resewed up Grace's wound.She seemed terrified of blood, but refused to leave, worried that Grace would need her help.

She reminds Grace of Anna.

Grace wondered what had become of Eva and Anna, and the children.He remembered now that it was Eva who changed his clothes when he "went mad" and Anna cried so hard.He hoped the Earl of Arundel had hidden them for them.

"Don't you think..." the maid like Anna finally couldn't help asking Grace.

"what?"

"Don't you feel pain?"

Grace instantly felt a pain in the head as if it had been split open.The next few stitches were done in such excruciating pain. The intense pain was transmitted from the head into the chest cavity, and then spread to every corner of the body.

After treating the wound, Grace was still shaking and drenched.

The maid brought hot water to wash his hair and the blood from his neck.She was careful not to open the wound the way Grace washed her hair.

She didn't know who Grace was at all, and regarded him as a strange relative of the master, while washing his hair, she talked about the recent chaos.

Her first words were: "It's horrible!"

"Master Allen was an officer one moment, and a criminal the next... Madam is so pitiful, she loves Master Allen so much... Her body looks very bad, because of the new law, she has almost written to herself The servants all said that the lady would leave all her property to Master Allen, and not give it to the earl... The earl never came back to visit the lady, and the lady didn't care about the earl's career, and they seemed to have a bad relationship...You Don't you like hearing me say this?" The maid stopped.

Grace asked if she was done washing.The maid said he needed to dry it, otherwise he would get sick, and then picked up a dry and soft towel and wiped his hair carefully.

This peaceful life is simply incredible.

She was finally satisfied with Grace's hair and allowed him to stand up.

Grace asked her, "Where's Mr. Schilling?"

The maid said it might be in Master Allen's bedroom.

Grace nodded and walked out the door.The maid called to him again and said to him, "Your hair is so beautiful in color, you should grow it longer."

Such a calm and everyday conversation reached Grace's ears and turned into another sentence: "William is dead."

William is dead.These words hit Grace's head heavily, he closed his eyes, covered his forehead and went out.

Johnson Schilling lit a fire in Allen's room and was burning some paper.

Grace walked over, squatted beside him, and saw that he was burning Allen's manuscript.He picked up one and saw Allen's views on the British representative system written on it, and picked up another one with an analysis of Napoleon's combat style written on it.

"Did he let you burn it?" he asked Shirin.

"Yes, he said it was safe to burn."

Grace took another sheet from the back of the paper, and it caught his attention because the handwriting on this one was very scribbled and different from the rest of the manuscript.

This piece of paper reads: "...dream of her again, this time entering her body...beautiful, terrifying...want to kiss her, want to bite her...want to be like in the dream...crazy...witch ...can't sleep."

Grace folded the paper and put it in her pocket.

"You said earlier that Allen was attacked in prison?" he asked Johnson Schilling.

Xilin looked up in surprise, "Did you hear that? I thought..."

"I just remembered. Is he safe now?"

"It should be safe for the time being. The Earl of Arundel is defending him."

"What about the prison attack?"

Johnson Schilling was silent for a moment, and said: "It is the citizens...the foreign troops on the border scare them. Not only the Habs Dynasty, but the Tsar also participated. There are rumors that these foreign troops will attack the capital and release the prisoners in prison. The nobles. People were afraid that the victory of the revolution would be destroyed... They were afraid of the revenge of the nobles, so they attacked first... Not only that one prison, but several prisons were attacked, and more than 2000 people died..." He became slightly A little excited, "More than 1000 of them have just been imprisoned! They haven't been tried yet, but because they are nobles and priests who refuse to betray God, they are said to be criminals who oppose the revolution... Only a very few The prisoner was not killed because he successfully resisted the door of his cell, and Allen was one of the lucky ones... Fortunately, he was not seriously injured."

"he is injured?"

"Slightly wounded . . . because he wouldn't surrender."

Grace lowered her head and thought for a while, then asked him, "Has Russia declared war on us?"

"Don't you know? Oh, yes..." Xilin recalled that the queen was also imprisoned. "Not only Russia, but the monarchs of other European countries are panicked by this revolution. The monarchs are always united in front of the republic."

"Republic? Did the National Assembly use that word?"

"Yes."

The two were silent for a while.Grace said, "If there's anything else I don't know, tell me."

Johnson Schilling told him that there had been a bloody incident in the capital before the king's final trial.The citizens who demanded the abolition of the monarchy protested in Crown Square, clashed with the National Guard, and many people died. "Because of the king, the representatives split into two factions with sharp contradictions, and the National Guard also split..."

Grace remembered what she heard through the window of the cell, and said in a low voice: "That's why people are so angry that they must kill the king. They put all the blame on Chris..." He thought for a while, and suddenly said: " The Lord of Arundel is about to lose power."

Johnson Schilling was surprised by his judgment, "How come? The Earl of Arundel is one of the most popular representatives of the common people—"

"He's a nobleman," interrupted Grace. "He's already lost the king's trial. Who's the toughest one to demand the king's guilt?"

"...Many people, many civilian representatives from other provinces, such as Lubis, oh yes, there are also some priests from civilian backgrounds, such as Bernal—"

Grace asked loudly, "I want to know who's the toughest!"

His eyes were wide open, and his pupils were larger than normal, making Shirin think he was crazy again.

"It's...a guy with a bit of a mouthful name, George Constantinos." Shirin replied cautiously.He found that Grace was indeed listening to him, so he continued with confidence: "He is the leader of the most extreme faction, with a low background, but he is very good at speeches, and his eloquence is amazing... The origin of this person is somewhat unknown. He claims to be Practiced as a lawyer in the New World colonies, but Allen thought he was lying. Allen judged from the man's ability to think that he had never practiced law."

Grace urges him to say more, to tell herself all he knows.

"He's also been heard talking in the dialect of the Southern Province with close friends. You know that the Southern Province has been rioting, and the 'patriots' there are very close to the enemy country. There's so much violence in the capital that shouldn't happen, and the poor With so many weapons, many people speculate that those 'patriots' have something to do with it. And in the conversations with Konstantinos' close friends, his friend always mispronounced his name, even if he tried to correct it, his friend still I like to call him—"

"Jerry."

Xilin asked him in surprise, "How do you know?"

With fire in her eyes, Grace said to Schilling, "I'm going back."

"Where are you going?"

"The capital. The center of politics."

"But we managed to escape! The Earl of Arundel said—"

"Arundel can't defend Allen, he can't protect himself."

Johnson Schilling was stunned.

Grace rummaged through the papers for a while, and found a few more scrawled ones.When he saw one of them, he couldn't help laughing, because it was written on a hand-painted artillery mechanical drawing. Allen was distracted while studying, and he wrote: "Do I hate her? Or love her? This Is it love? It's so painful...and my love is much more painful than others..."

Grace folded the paper neatly, put it in her pocket, stood up, and said to Shirin, "I want to rescue him."

Xilin was stunned and asked, "Who?"

"Ellen."

On the morning of their departure, Mrs. Stone died.She had a brief moment of flashback before she died, when Grace told her, "I'm going to get Ellen out."

Mrs. Stone asked him, "Can you do it?"

Grace said: "Did you forget, I am the queen. If I can become a queen from a maid, I can rescue Ellen from prison safely."

Just like when she came, Grace returned the same way in the carriage driven by Johnson Schilling.Grace then saw the path they had taken.The public forest where logging was once prohibited was cleared, and mud and rocks slid down the hillside and rolled into the river, blocking the river course. The river carried mud and rocks and rushed towards the farmland and roads.

When the peasants killed the tramp, they shouted: "In the name of the country!" They believed that the country had abolished the feudal system, so they burned the lord's castle and feudal documents.Fearing reprisals from the nobles, they killed anyone who looked suspicious.

The Maple Leaf Forest Villa was also burned down, but Mr. Odor was still acting as a civilian representative in the capital. Because the Earl of Arundel was elected as a representative in the capital, the local seat was vacant.Father Bernal, funded by Allen, was the representative.Liar Jerry is also represented.

They painstakingly restarted the National Assembly, now known as the National Assembly, and doubled the three hundred plebeian representatives to a total of six hundred.Who do these 600 people represent?

Grace habitually thought of this, but stopped abruptly, because he heard a voice rumbling in his mind: "William is dead."

Grace looked up at the sky, the ground was covered with mudstones and muddy water, but the sky was still blue.Grace looked up at the sky and said to William, "Brother, this is the country and people you are protecting with your life."

*In particular, although Jerry here, or George, borrows a little bit of Robespierre's identity, it cannot be said to be based on Robespierre.Robespierre was nobler than him, and he was wickeder than Robespierre.Even though Robespierre has done many controversial things, it is certain that he will never be as traitorous as Jerry.

The prototype of the "Patriot" is the "Patriot" in the Netherlands, which itself is funded by France to fight against the Dutch government.But then France went bankrupt and stopped funding, and many Dutch "patriots" flocked to France and played a role in the violence in the early days of the Revolution.

The reason for making such a change is because in the history of ancient and modern China and foreign countries, the internal turmoil of a country always involves the participation of foreign forces.
