”Father! We must find a place to take shelter from the rain!”

  Hans wiped the rain off his face and shouted distractedly.

  However, the tall and thin figure in front of him didn’t even look back.

  ”Father! How about we find a higher place, tie the two horses together, hide under the horses’ bellies, and wait until the rain stops before leaving?”

  Sonny finally looked back at his embarrassed son, filled with hatred. Gangdi yelled, “Shut up! As a knight of the Grantu family, can’t you bear being exposed to a little rain?”

  Seeing that his father was angry, Hans didn’t dare to yell anymore, but his face still remained. He was angry and muttered in a low voice, “It’s not a knight; it’s a knight’s apprentice…”

  The two of them walked hard for a while in the pouring rain. Hans suddenly shouted excitedly, “Fire, father! There is a fire ahead!”

  Sonny looked in the direction Hans was pointing, but his brows furrowed slightly, and he asked doubtfully: “I haven’t arrived at Dongquan Town yet. Could it be a traveler passing by?” “No matter what it is, the presence of fire means there is a shelter from the rain. There, let’s go and hide!”

  Hans gently pinched the horse’s belly and sped up a little, and Sonny temporarily put aside his doubts and accelerated forward.

  After walking for about three-quarters of an hour, the two finally reached the top of a small hill, which was a large-scale camp.

  Sonny looked at the obviously well-trained guards and tall horses in the camp and was shocked. He knew that this must be a noble caravan and a big noble at that.

  The patrolling guards immediately stepped forward to question them after seeing the two men.

  ”Dear knight, I am Bachelor Sonny from the Grantu family. This is my son Hans. We are passing by here. I wonder if you can let us borrow your camp to escape this damn rainstorm?” “Grantu“? The lord family of Winter Spring Town?”

  ”Yes.”

  ”Please wait a moment.”

  The knight returned to the camp, probably to ask for instructions. He returned not long after, nodded to the embarrassed two people, and said: “Come in.”

  ”Thank you very much for your generosity!”

  Sonny and his son led the horse into the camp and were taken into a large tent by the knight, where seven or eight guards had gathered.

  ”Give these two guests of the Grantu family a blanket each, let them warm themselves by the fire, and drink some hot soup,” said the knight who brought them in order.

  Hans quickly thanked him.

  Sonny used the firelight in the tent to clearly see the armor on the knight and the golden lion badge on his chest. He was shocked and blurted out: “Is this the Duke of the North’s car?” The knight

  nodded. Head: “Yes, the Duke will also pass through Winter Springs on this trip, so he can take you two with him.”

  ”Thank you so much!” Sonny thanked him quickly, but there was a doubt in his heart.

  He knew that Duke St. Hilde had just accepted the news of the emperor’s canonization, so the convoy should be returning to the north. However, the problem was that returning to Winter City from Yulong City would not pass through Winter Spring Town.

  Of course, Sonny would not take the liberty to ask about the doubts in his heart. He just smiled and said: “I wonder if I can have the honor to meet the Duke and thank her personally.” “It’s too late today. I’ll ask you tomorrow. .”

  ”Okay, thank you very much!”

  Watching the knight stride away, Sonny drank the hot soup handed to him by his son and fell into deep thought.

  …

  Early the next morning, the heavy rain had stopped, and the soldiers in the camp lit up bonfires and began to prepare breakfast.

  Three large pots were boiling with steam, and several plump yellow sheep were tumbling on the barbecue grill. The golden fat dripped into the bonfire, bursting out sparks. The alluring aroma made both Grantu and his son unable to help but swallow. Swallowed.

  After the game was roasted, the waiter unhooked the yellow sheep from the grill and skillfully used a knife to divide the crispy-on-the-outside and tender-on-the-inside mutton into two exquisite silver plates. Two young and beautiful maids held up the silver plates and presented them to the most luxurious tent in the center of the camp.

  Hans stared closely at the maid’s perky butt, while Sonny stared at the tent in the center of the camp.

  After breakfast, Sonny and Hans put on clean clothes. After confirming that there was no omission or rudeness, they patiently waited for the Duke’s summons.

  Not long after, the knight who had brought them into the camp last night came over and led the two of them to the tent in the center of the camp.

  Under Hans’s curious and eager eyes, the curtain of the tent was opened by two maids, and a delicate leather boot stepped out first, and then a slim figure came into Hans’ eyes. When he put it on the door curtain, Hans finally saw the face of the owner of the delicate hand.

  Then, the sixteen-year-old boy froze.

  Her golden hair is tied into an elegant lady’s bun. Her blue eyes are deeper than sapphires. Under her beautiful jade nose are flaming red lips. There is a faint smile on her fair face, and her eyes are flowing. In the meantime, Hans’s mind went blank.

  He had long heard that the Duke of the North was a stunning beauty, but the appearance he had fantasized about countless times was not as good as the smile in person.

  Hans stared blankly at Vera as she walked out of the tent. He just wanted to kneel in front of her, kiss her toes, and praise her with the most beautiful poems.

  It’s a pity that this beauty didn’t notice the goose-like young boy from the Grantu family at all. Moreover, her left hand was holding a heroic young man behind her!

  Hans’s heart was immediately consumed by raging jealousy. Of course he knew that this handsome young man should be the husband of the Duke of the North, Viscount Angelet, but Hans still couldn’t help but think about this goddess-like figure. Why is it not me who is holding the hand?

  When Sonny looked at his son who was standing still with glazed eyes, he knew that his old habit had happened again, so he quickly stepped forward to block his son’s rude gaze, bowed, and said, “

  Dear Saint Hilde, ” Duke, respected Viscount Angelet, thank you for your helping hand last night. Your kindness is as dazzling as the brilliance of the sun!”

  Colin looked at the two people in front of him with interest, especially the one who claimed to be a bachelor. Middle-aged man – Sonny Grantu.

  In fact, the Grantu family is not a prominent family. The family title is only a baron, and the fiefdom is only an inconspicuous town in the Scarlet Flame Territory—Winter Spring Town.

  If it weren’t for the Prime Minister, Baron Heidegger, who mysteriously asked Colin to go to Winter Spring Town when he was in Yulong City, and said there would be unexpected gains here, Colin wouldn’t have taken a detour to such a small place.

  Along the way, Colin had been speculating about what there was in Winter Spring Town that deserved the attention of the Prime Minister of the Empire. Now that he happened to meet Bachelor Sonny who was taking shelter from the rain, Colin suddenly had a clue.

  Bachelor is a title suffix that only graduates of White Tower College can have. It may not be as noble as a noble title, but in Colin’s heart, it actually carries more weight.

  ”Sister Sonny, there is no need to be polite. In fact, we are also going to Winter Spring Town to visit Baron Grantu, and we hope you can help introduce him.”

  Colin smiled and greeted Bachelor Sonny, looking out of the corner of his eye. I saw two small figures running towards this side quickly.

  ”Good morning, Sister Vera! Good morning, teacher!” Prince Harrison and Princess Judy first saluted and greeted, and then looked at Sonny and his son curiously as if they felt that the guests in this camp looked familiar.

  Unexpectedly, Bachelor Sonny actually took the initiative to salute and greet the two little guys: “His Royal Highness Prince Harrison, His Royal Highness Princess Judy!”

  Colin raised his eyebrows and was surprised that he did not shout out to Harrison and Judy. His true identity, and he also believed that the guards in the camp would not reveal this kind of information to two strangers.

  Unless, this Bachelor Sonny already knows Harrison and Judy.

  Prince Harrison nodded in return, his little face full of doubts, and asked: “Who are you?”

  Bachelor Sonny smiled slightly, with a hint of sadness in his eyes, and said calmly:

  ”Your Highness, I am Sonny Grantu. Maybe you don’t remember, but five years ago, I was the Minister of Agriculture of the Empire.”
