Nick from the original plot felt that Felina's words were reasonable, but he also believed that there was some misunderstanding between the two brothers and sisters, which caused them to distrust each other so much. He tried his best to send letters to both sides, but the final result was of course a tragedy...
Now, Nick couldn't hear Felina's explanation, and even if he heard it, he would think that Felina was sophistry.In the original plot, Felina may really be doing everything to protect the guides, but the only two insiders will not help her explain.Even if Felina in the original plot did it out of good intentions, her approach is absolutely wrong. What's more, the current Felina's behavior clearly shows her selfishness, and there is nothing to explain to her.
"We have to get home as soon as possible."
"It's time to go to the battlefield..." Nick sighed.
Duan Shaobo looked at him: "I thought you would be very excited."
"Five years earlier, I would have been really excited, but... after running back and forth for so many years, I have already passed the age where I would be excited for the bard's hero~~"
The current Nick, compared to him in the original plot, has seen more good, evil, beauty, ugliness, love and hatred, but far less glory and deepening than Nick in the original plot.He is still just the most ordinary knight, following his friends to hunt down all kinds of murderers. There are also sentries, but there are too few of them. Their tasks are not based on physical strength, but on their brains. .
So same time, but now Nick is much more mature.
Five sentries (there were two more knights added later), traveled day and night, and returned to the city of Lessinger.
"The emperor's conscription order? Go to war with the Principality of Aidon?" Shane was surprised.
"Yes, Commander, it seems that we are a little faster than the emperor's envoy, but they should have arrived within two days."
"I see, don't tell other people about this, go back and rest first."
"Yes."
On the way back, Nick squeezed between Gu Cijiu and Duan Shaobo: "The leader doesn't seem very happy about the start of the war. I don't mean the leader is warlike, I mean..." He put The already low voice was even lower, "Don't the leader want a title of his own?"
After six years, Shan En, who is still unmarried, has also put his discord with the Earl's family on the table.The Silver Knights of the handsome brother in armor were directly independent from the earl's guards, which was simply to show that Shane's power was divided.But that younger brother is really useless. Even if the earl is obviously partial and entrusts him with the matter to make him famous, he will often mess things up, and finally let the black knights clean up the mess for the Silver Knights.
"Because we and Aidon probably won't fight." Gu Cijiu spread his hands.
"Huh? Didn't you often fight with Aidoen in the past few years? Why can't we fight this time?"
Gu Cijiu: "The previous years you mentioned were more than ten years ago. If people of our generation don't like to listen to the bard's stories, they don't even know that they fought against Aidoen."
"...Then why did the emperor make such a big move?" Nick was stunned. He knew a lot about the darkness of human nature, but national politics was still too far away for him now.
"The emperor is very old, he will be more than 70 years old, almost 50 years old? He did start wars many times when he was young, but after he was [-] years old, he never did it again. Let alone now, people of this age The emperor is about to die, and what he needs more is to decide on an heir. The nobles in the capital are easier to deal with than the nobles in the fief."
The emperor's three sons and the great nobles all have their own positions. If there is a problem with the succession of the throne, civil war after the death of the emperor is very likely to happen.But this shouldn't be something that low-level knights like Gu Cijiu can know, so there's no need to say it now.
"Is there no chance of going to war at all?"
"There is still one thing. For example, the emperor's mind is no longer clear. He hopes to beat Aidoen down before he dies."
"Why do you say that you do this when your brain is not clear?"
Duan Shaobo explained: "Because all the big nobles know how old he is, do you think the big nobles want to lose their troops and gain merits on the battlefield, or do they want to save their strength so that they can bargain with the new emperor?"
"..."
The two looked at Nick's "innocent and pure" expression, and nodded together: "Okay, we know what you mean."
Nick rolled his eyes: "You don't want this expression! Indeed! If I were a big noble, I would prefer to get what I want on the battlefield... But I understand what you mean! The emperor probably doesn't like big princes with large territories. Aristocrats, right? Those who suffered heavy losses on the battlefield may be killed and take back their territory. The new emperor succeeds to the throne, and maybe he will also take a few big nobles under his knife? That would still be bad luck with big losses."
Nick spread his hands: "So even if the emperor wants to fight, the big nobles will not let this war start. Although I don't know much about politics, I have seen too many inheritance fights over the years. The emperor and the big nobles are like The relationship between the great nobles and some talented retainers is similar."
Gu Cijiu rubbed Nick's head: "It's good that you understand, so, this time our goal is to protect the leader."
"Huh?" Nick patted Gu Cijiu's hand away, he is so tall!
"It doesn't matter if the earl's family is killed, the captain is alive, and it is best for us if the captain inherits the earl's title and the earldom."
"Um...agree."
"But this is our private decision. Don't tell anyone else, including the head of the regiment." Duan Shaobo added a few words of explanation, "We don't know what other people think. Get in trouble."
"clear."
Their knights set off in three days, →_→ but Felina's guides, the younger brother's Silver Knights, and the Earl and his wife were still at least five days behind.It may be intentional, but it's more because their preparations are not as fast as the black knights.
The black knights are in a state of combat readiness almost every day. Everyone has a package, which contains the most durable black bread and ham. It is food for at least seven days. When needed, they can just pick up the bag and go.Others have much more to prepare than them.The Black Knights are already a professional soldier far ahead of this era.
This was the first time that their relatively special team followed the large army, and Shane specially transferred them to his side.
And the speed of the team is as slow as that of a snail.
On the tenth day of departure, the Silver Knights caught up.
Facing his flamboyant younger brother, Shane simply gave up the dominance.
_(:з」∠)_So the next day, the team got lost in the forest!
The Silver Knights followed behind them, led by the black knight left behind by Sean.Now they have long left the scope of the Earl of Lessinger, and are in the territory of their neighbors.Hyundai follows satellite navigation and it is very possible to drive the car into a ditch, let alone this year when there is no national road?
Most of the lords in the Middle Ages were unwilling to build roads. Although building roads can bring more merchants, it also costs more money. In addition, it is likely to be cheaper for neighbors who are hostile to them.Think you can go anywhere with a map?Dreaming.
Neither my younger brother nor his subordinates had any experience in long-distance marches. The scouts we sent came back a dozen meters away. If he didn't get lost, who would get lost?
If he lost his way, he would only yell at his subordinates and at Sean, and finally they brought them out with the help of the black knight, but happened to meet the guards of the Earl and his wife. When the younger brother saw his parents, he pushed all the mistakes to Sean. Head on.
He probably didn't see that many people in his own Silver Knights blushed like blood.
At home, my younger brother lost his temper, complained about Shan En, and was a little unreasonable.But now, getting lost is really what they did.
In front of Shane and other knights, the count and his wife complained about their younger brother.But they let Shane go, and let the brother into the carriage instead.
Seeing that younger brother's proud face when he got into the carriage, Nick really wanted to put a sack on him!He also has that ability set, but in this situation, after putting on the sack, the first prisoners that the Earl and his wife thought of were their captain and the black knight.You can't cause trouble for the leader, so wait until you get to the capital!
This younger brother is so annoying, he will definitely offend people when he arrives in the capital!
They set off in the middle of summer, and it took almost three months to reach the capital, and the weather has cooled down.This road is really too difficult to walk, and even for a few sections, the black knights had to cut down trees to make way and cross the river to build bridges.The situation in this era is like this. The land is vast and sparsely populated, and there are many more uninhabited old forests than human civilization cities. The brigade is getting further and further away...
Later, the two gave up their minds and completely delegated power, but the team had already gone to an unknown place, so they could only bite the bullet and search for the location of the town according to the general direction.They spent more than a month in the wild, and encountered monsters twice.
When they finally saw Taur, the city of towers, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
A few days ago, some soldiers took Earl Lessinger's seal and went to the capital one step ahead of time, and now they really saw a welcoming crowd at the gate of the capital.
"Is that Earl Lessinger? Nice to meet you. I am Maury Letoria Crean, the second second prince, and I am here to welcome the Earl on behalf of my father." The knights who came to greet him separated left and right, In the middle emerged a knight on a white horse in splendid court attire.
The moment he appeared, both the black knight and the silver knight looked at the carriage instantly!From outsiders' point of view, Earl Lessinger ruled well, but only these knights knew it, and they were astonished!
The second prince, if he hadn't introduced himself, everyone would have thought he was Earl Lessinger's nephew or nephew. He was so similar to the Earl Lessinger family!The same dry and thin, the same chestnut eyes, very pointed nose, not ugly, he is considered handsome, but when he grinned and opened his mouth a little bit, he looked scary, and his face was cold and expressionless, and he looked mean.
But after being surprised, everyone calmed down again. Maybe the earl's family and the second prince are relatively close by blood.
When the earl and his wife got out of the car, the second prince Murray was stunned for a moment. As a prince, he knew his family tree very well. From his mother's point of view, he was indeed married to the Lessinger family, but that was three generations ago. Well, if he is like that, he is also like the distant aunt of the Lessinger family who was married at that time.Instead of being like the current Earl Lessinger, no, from the look of his features, he is more like Mrs. Lessinger.
Mrs. Lessinger did have some connection with her biological mother, her older sister was a lady-in-waiting to the second queen and died protecting her.But these two sisters were once only the daughters of merchants, and Mrs. Lessinger was once the mistress of Earl Lessinger. Later, for unknown reasons, she was formally married by the earl. This is a famous Cinderella story in this era.
Prince Murray is sure that he has no blood relationship with the countess!
Before today, because of Earl Lessinger's support for him all the time, the second prince had a good impression of the earl and his wife, but now when he looks at them, he feels guarded and hostile from the bottom of his heart...
The smile on the prince's face became less cordial. He casually ordered the knights around him to settle the army of the Earl of Lessinger, expressing that he would lead the Countess and his wife to their accommodation, and then rode away on horseback.Even if you lead the team on horseback, this behavior is too rude, right?You run so fast, how can you let the carriage follow?
But these are all headaches for the Earl and his wife, and maybe Felina and her younger brother will also have headaches, because they all followed the carriage with their cronies.The rest of the people just need to follow the leader to their station to rest. Not only the black knights, most of the silver knights are also left, and some guides...
They came to Taur as guests, but there was not such a big place to accommodate everyone.Moreover, after this journey, everyone has a certain idea of what happened to their master who was determined in the past.
They failed to enter the city at all, and were led towards the outskirts of the city. They arrived at Taur at about three o'clock, and they didn't stop until about six o'clock.Many, many soldiers have already settled down here, and there is an unpleasant smell from a long distance...
The place where the army camped was next to a river, so it should be convenient to get water, but everyone could see that some people were urinating upstream and others were fetching water downstream.
The two sides didn't even fight? !And thanks to the good eyesight of the sentinels, they can still clearly see that the camp is full of human and horse feces. There was a light rain in the morning, and the muddy ground was mixed with dirt. He stepped on it without changing his expression.
"Can we go further upstream to set up camp?" Shane asked the knight who led the way.
The man pointed towards the distance indifferently: "Anyway, you don't need to go beyond that mountain."
"Is all the army here? I only see six Earl's banners."
"It's true that only six people have come, and the others are still on their way. Two more people should arrive tomorrow."
"..." It turned out that they were delayed on the road for almost three months, and depending on the situation, the speed was still in the middle.
Duan Shaobo [Eldest brother, although the speed of war mobilization in this era is very slow, but... the current situation is too exaggerated.In this way, either the empire has been without state wars all year round, and the lords are really not used to long-distance marches, or the lords are deliberately delaying.It seems that on the way, the Earl asked Felina and his brother to take turns leading the way, not only partiality, but also intentional to a certain extent. 】
Gu Cijiu [Well, the younger brother is right.We all know that the emperor is not in good health, so we all want to see if we can delay it until the emperor himself cools down, right?Especially for the nobles in the southwest, attacking the Principality of Aidorn in the north would not benefit them much.When it comes to the issue of fighting for imperial power, it is even more procrastinating.However, when Countess Lessinger and his wife saw the second prince, their expressions did not change at all. They really thought too much, and they seemed weird instead. 】
Duan Shaobo [That is a normal reaction to the second prince.No wonder it has been decades, almost all the people who know the truth have died, and the truth about Shan En's life experience can still be revealed.It's a pity. 】
It is normal to feel curious or amused when seeing someone who looks like you.The second prince was a little surprised at first, but later he was unhappy because he didn't look like the emperor and queen, but he looked like a countess who had a bad reputation in the early years and had no blood relationship with him. As an arrogant prince, he felt insulted , will feel unhappy.
However, the Earl and his wife did not change their expressions from the beginning to the end, neither curious nor surprised. It is not normal to have such strict expression control on such unnecessary things.When this happens, there is generally only one reasonable explanation—they already knew it would happen and were prepared.
Gu Cijiu【What a pity? 】
Duan Shaobo [Felina and that younger brother did not get out of the carriage, I really want to see their reaction when they see that Highness. 】
Gu Cijiu【It's true... I want to see you too, but unfortunately, I can't. 】
"Hey! Have you two exchanged enough flirtations?" Nick looked at the two friends helplessly.
Duan Shaobo: "What's wrong?"
"Have you seen the appearance of the second prince just now? It's exactly the same as Felina!"
Gu Cijiu: "It's a bit exaggerated, isn't it?"
"Anyway, they are very similar! Do you think that the second prince is Earl Lessinger's son, and our team leader is the second prince?"
"Nick, you know that we are surrounded by sentries. Can others hear what you say clearly?"
"I know, but they all know it's not true, it's just my beautiful fantasy, a joke."
"..." So guys from the intuition department are the most annoying. If you say something casually, you will tell the truth.
Gu Cijiu【Little brother, since this guy wants to play big, let's play with him. 】
Duan Shaobo [Shaun's personality is very good, if he becomes the monarch of a country, it will also be beneficial to the country. 】
Gu Cijiu poked Nick with a smile: "Do you have to let us speak out? The reason why you are not allowed to say it is because what you said is absurd, but if you think about it carefully, the possibility is very high. Otherwise you say , Why does the Earl always favor those useless siblings? Besides, the expressions of the Earl and the Countess just now were too strange, right? Are you not surprised that they look so similar to the Second Prince?"
Nick: (⊙口⊙) And said I shouldn't be talking nonsense, what are you two talking about!Ahhhhh!It's terrible!I always feel like I heard something I shouldn't have heard!
The sentries around who heard it all turned their heads and looked this way. Their expressions were as horrified as Nick, but even the guys from the Silver Knights had such expectations.
What if... what if their head is really the prince?As long as you think about it, it's inexplicable!
To be a subordinate of the son of an earl, in the future, at most, they will be a viscount who is still a fief, but as a subordinate of the son of an emperor, they can become earls!This gap is too big.
Those three are just kidding, right?should……
→_→However, the first thing everyone needs to solve is their accommodation. It’s getting late at this time of downloading, and the sky is cloudy again. It’s going to rain at any time. No one wants to sleep wet.
However, everyone soon discovered that coming to Taur was only the beginning of their suffering.There is nothing here except the piece of land that was allocated to them at the beginning, and the empire has not provided it, so they can only support themselves.
Part of the damage rate of the tents on the way they came could only be purchased locally, and everyone had to live together while building the huts.Ditches had to be dug and cesspit pits dug.The kitchen should also be well built.
They also had to be responsible for buying food, but the local food was extremely expensive, and with the little money the earl left for them, they couldn't buy a few bites of food.To hunt, you have to go to a very far place to hunt, otherwise you may run into the nobles of the imperial capital who are out hunting.
What's more troublesome is the conflict with the "neighbors".Unlike Lessinger's all-elite team, the rest of the neighbors' armies consisted of a very small number of elite knights, plus mercenaries, plus militia.The emperor didn't care about the food, clothing, housing and transportation of all the lords, and the lords only cared about the clothing, food, housing and transportation of their own knights, and the rest of the mercenaries and militiamen had to find their own food.In terms of numbers, they have the smallest number of troops, but in terms of combat effectiveness, their troops have the strongest combat effectiveness.
Most people only use numbers to measure strength and weakness. First, some troops who arrived later asked them to make way, and then they were beaten →_→.
Then these guys didn't give up, and gathered several forces around them to snatch their prey, but they were still beaten →_→.
These guys learned a little bit smarter, and instead indulged their mercenaries and militiamen to be thieves, sneaking into their garrison to steal things.Moreover, dung bags and other dung bags were found from these thieves. These guys are definitely not just here to steal things.This time the regiment leader got angry, hanged all the thieves he caught and hung them on the flagpole at the gate of the station.
The "neighbor" was completely honest.
Now, Nick couldn't hear Felina's explanation, and even if he heard it, he would think that Felina was sophistry.In the original plot, Felina may really be doing everything to protect the guides, but the only two insiders will not help her explain.Even if Felina in the original plot did it out of good intentions, her approach is absolutely wrong. What's more, the current Felina's behavior clearly shows her selfishness, and there is nothing to explain to her.
"We have to get home as soon as possible."
"It's time to go to the battlefield..." Nick sighed.
Duan Shaobo looked at him: "I thought you would be very excited."
"Five years earlier, I would have been really excited, but... after running back and forth for so many years, I have already passed the age where I would be excited for the bard's hero~~"
The current Nick, compared to him in the original plot, has seen more good, evil, beauty, ugliness, love and hatred, but far less glory and deepening than Nick in the original plot.He is still just the most ordinary knight, following his friends to hunt down all kinds of murderers. There are also sentries, but there are too few of them. Their tasks are not based on physical strength, but on their brains. .
So same time, but now Nick is much more mature.
Five sentries (there were two more knights added later), traveled day and night, and returned to the city of Lessinger.
"The emperor's conscription order? Go to war with the Principality of Aidon?" Shane was surprised.
"Yes, Commander, it seems that we are a little faster than the emperor's envoy, but they should have arrived within two days."
"I see, don't tell other people about this, go back and rest first."
"Yes."
On the way back, Nick squeezed between Gu Cijiu and Duan Shaobo: "The leader doesn't seem very happy about the start of the war. I don't mean the leader is warlike, I mean..." He put The already low voice was even lower, "Don't the leader want a title of his own?"

"Can we go further upstream to set up camp?" Shane asked the knight who led the way.
The man pointed towards the distance indifferently: "Anyway, you don't need to go beyond that mountain."
"Is all the army here? I only see six Earl's banners."
"It's true that only six people have come, and the others are still on their way. Two more people should arrive tomorrow."
"..." It turned out that they were delayed on the road for almost three months, and depending on the situation, the speed was still in the middle.
Duan Shaobo [Eldest brother, although the speed of war mobilization in this era is very slow, but... the current situation is too exaggerated.In this way, either the empire has been without state wars all year round, and the lords are really not used to long-distance marches, or the lords are deliberately delaying.It seems that on the way, the Earl asked Felina and his brother to take turns leading the way, not only partiality, but also intentional to a certain extent. 】
Gu Cijiu [Well, the younger brother is right.We all know that the emperor is not in good health, so we all want to see if we can delay it until the emperor himself cools down, right?Especially for the nobles in the southwest, attacking the Principality of Aidorn in the north would not benefit them much.When it comes to the issue of fighting for imperial power, it is even more procrastinating.However, when Countess Lessinger and his wife saw the second prince, their expressions did not change at all. They really thought too much, and they seemed weird instead. 】
Duan Shaobo [That is a normal reaction to the second prince.No wonder it has been decades, almost all the people who know the truth have died, and the truth about Shan En's life experience can still be revealed.It's a pity. 】
It is normal to feel curious or amused when seeing someone who looks like you.The second prince was a little surprised at first, but later he was unhappy because he didn't look like the emperor and queen, but he looked like a countess who had a bad reputation in the early years and had no blood relationship with him. As an arrogant prince, he felt insulted , will feel unhappy.
However, the Earl and his wife did not change their expressions from the beginning to the end, neither curious nor surprised. It is not normal to have such strict expression control on such unnecessary things.When this happens, there is generally only one reasonable explanation—they already knew it would happen and were prepared.
Gu Cijiu【What a pity? 】
Duan Shaobo [Felina and that younger brother did not get out of the carriage, I really want to see their reaction when they see that Highness. 】
Gu Cijiu【It's true... I want to see you too, but unfortunately, I can't. 】
"Hey! Have you two exchanged enough flirtations?" Nick looked at the two friends helplessly.
Duan Shaobo: "What's wrong?"
"Have you seen the appearance of the second prince just now? It's exactly the same as Felina!"
Gu Cijiu: "It's a bit exaggerated, isn't it?"
"Anyway, they are very similar! Do you think that the second prince is Earl Lessinger's son, and our team leader is the second prince?"
"Nick, you know that we are surrounded by sentries. Can others hear what you say clearly?"
"I know, but they all know it's not true, it's just my beautiful fantasy, a joke."
"..." So guys from the intuition department are the most annoying. If you say something casually, you will tell the truth.
Gu Cijiu【Little brother, since this guy wants to play big, let's play with him. 】
Duan Shaobo [Shaun's personality is very good, if he becomes the monarch of a country, it will also be beneficial to the country. 】
Gu Cijiu poked Nick with a smile: "Do you have to let us speak out? The reason why you are not allowed to say it is because what you said is absurd, but if you think about it carefully, the possibility is very high. Otherwise you say , Why does the Earl always favor those useless siblings? Besides, the expressions of the Earl and the Countess just now were too strange, right? Are you not surprised that they look so similar to the Second Prince?"
Nick: (⊙口⊙) And said I shouldn't be talking nonsense, what are you two talking about!Ahhhhh!It's terrible!I always feel like I heard something I shouldn't have heard!
The sentries around who heard it all turned their heads and looked this way. Their expressions were as horrified as Nick, but even the guys from the Silver Knights had such expectations.
What if... what if their head is really the prince?As long as you think about it, it's inexplicable!
To be a subordinate of the son of an earl, in the future, at most, they will be a viscount who is still a fief, but as a subordinate of the son of an emperor, they can become earls!This gap is too big.
Those three are just kidding, right?should……
→_→However, the first thing everyone needs to solve is their accommodation. It’s getting late at this time of downloading, and the sky is cloudy again. It’s going to rain at any time. No one wants to sleep wet.
However, everyone soon discovered that coming to Taur was only the beginning of their suffering.There is nothing here except the piece of land that was allocated to them at the beginning, and the empire has not provided it, so they can only support themselves.
Part of the damage rate of the tents on the way they came could only be purchased locally, and everyone had to live together while building the huts.Ditches had to be dug and cesspit pits dug.The kitchen should also be well built.
They also had to be responsible for buying food, but the local food was extremely expensive, and with the little money the earl left for them, they couldn't buy a few bites of food.To hunt, you have to go to a very far place to hunt, otherwise you may run into the nobles of the imperial capital who are out hunting.
What's more troublesome is the conflict with the "neighbors".Unlike Lessinger's all-elite team, the rest of the neighbors' armies consisted of a very small number of elite knights, plus mercenaries, plus militia.The emperor didn't care about the food, clothing, housing and transportation of all the lords, and the lords only cared about the clothing, food, housing and transportation of their own knights, and the rest of the mercenaries and militiamen had to find their own food.In terms of numbers, they have the smallest number of troops, but in terms of combat effectiveness, their troops have the strongest combat effectiveness.
Most people only use numbers to measure strength and weakness. First, some troops who arrived later asked them to make way, and then they were beaten →_→.
Then these guys didn't give up, and gathered several forces around them to snatch their prey, but they were still beaten →_→.
These guys learned a little bit smarter, and instead indulged their mercenaries and militiamen to be thieves, sneaking into their garrison to steal things.Moreover, dung bags and other dung bags were found from these thieves. These guys are definitely not just here to steal things.This time the regiment leader got angry, hanged all the thieves he caught and hung them on the flagpole at the gate of the station.
The "neighbor" was completely honest.
