Chapter 185

A month later, on John Thurston's path, a carriage was on its way.

"This is not what you said!" Locke looked helplessly at Ailian sitting opposite him.

"Please, please!" Ailian said to Locke, "I have no choice but to find you."

Locke rolled his eyes.

There was no Phyllis lead mine investigation mission, or yes, but it is no longer important.

Because they have only one task now, that is to help Ailian avoid this blind date.

Yes, it's a blind date.

Eileen was born in Johnston, a small southeast province of the omor empire. Her grandfather was said to have been a local Viscount, but he didn't fall down these years.

In her father's generation, she only won the title of a baron, and the territory is only a few small towns and a town that can barely be regarded as a small town.

Although the family power has declined a lot, the foundation handed down by their ancestors is still there. In terms of wealth, it is enough for them to have enough food and clothing for generations.

It was also with this condition that Ailian's parents spent a lot of money and asked the former imperial aristocrats to get Ailian to Princeton Royal College.

If nothing unexpected happens, Elaine may return to Johnston after graduation, inherit the family property passed on to her by her parents, and obtain the title of father Baron to manage the surrounding towns.

But this is not Eileen's dream, nor is it her will.

After studying in DIDU for nearly two years, how could she be willing to return to the same family territory in the countryside? If she wanted to stay in that territory all her life, she thought she would go crazy.

Ailian's parents are a pair of reasonable people, otherwise they would not choose to let Ailian, their favorite daughter, go to Princeton. They have a son and a daughter under their knees, which can be used as heirs in the family.

This time Elaine asked Locke for help, mainly because of her uncle.

"What? Viscount simack's children fell in love with me at first sight. I haven't even seen that Veron simack once!"

"It must be uncle Bissell's ghost again. He always wants to restore the glory of the family."

"I don't want to get married so early. Locke, you have to help me!"

Elaine took Locke's hand and pleaded with tearful eyes. Whether there were tears in her eyes remains to be discussed.

"I see, I know!" Locke agreed impatiently and was pulled to block the gun for no reason. It is conceivable that Locke's mood at this time.

But after such a long class at Princeton Royal College, only Ellen and Henry can be regarded as Locke's own friends. It's understandable to help her once.

Through Eileen's description, Locke knew that her uncle Bessel was his father's brother and also inherited a baron title, but he never forgot to return to the Viscount class these years.

However, viscount West mark is one of the few powerful viscount in the province of John Thurston. One or two hundred years ago, Elaine's family may still be able to get along with Viscount West Mark's family on an equal footing. Now, with the decline of their family, it can only be the existence they look forward to.

In the province of John Thurston, there are not many viscounts, but there are surprisingly many nobles below the Baron, so the hierarchy is extremely obvious.

This time, Eileen and her family have received the letter of approval from the Simak family. If Eileen can marry the eldest son of the Simak family, the Simak family is willing to put forward the proposal that the Eileen family be re elected as viscount in the aristocratic Parliament of Johnston.

Not to mention Baron Bissell, Eileen's uncle, but even her parents were moved.

Nobles who do not want the glory of the family to be carried forward in their own generation.

This is also the reason why Elaine had to hurry back because she didn't finish her studies this semester.

The mine investigation task led by Phyllis does exist, but the location of the task is not far from the territory of the Ailian family. It can be regarded as a border. If you want to complete it, it will be less than a day's journey.

"How do you want me to help you?" Locke asked curiously. It's impossible for him, a middle-ranking attendant, to overthrow the nobles who want to force her to marry.

The middle-level attendants are still an expert in Faustin, just like in the omor empire. Any Viscount can draw out several guards of the middle-level attendants.

"Hum." Ailian cleared her throat first, and then said solemnly.

"Locke, be my fiance!"

"Poof!" Locke almost threw the teacup out of his hand.

The carriage arrived at their destination in the evening three days later.

This is an exotic garden with a strong natural flavor. After getting off the carriage, Locke can clearly feel the appropriate environment around him. Whether it is the humidity of the air or the fragrance of the soil, Locke has the illusion of returning to his hometown maple leaf village.

Unknowingly, he has left the kingdom of forstan for a year, Locke sighed.

Although the season is in November, the snowy sky similar to that in the winter of the kingdom of Faustin did not appear in the omor empire. In this country, in the past, heavy snow could only be seen in December or even January next year.

The temperature is already a little low, but the field is still a little green. This is the winter wheat just planted by farmers after the autumn harvest.

"Ailian, my niece, you're finally back!" A hearty laugh came not far from the side of the carriage. A group of people came over, led by an old man with silver hair but still strong body.

Behind the old man was a middle-aged couple in fancy clothes. Judging from their appearance, the middle-aged lady was seven points similar to Ailian.

Ailian, who got out of the carriage, ignored her uncle's greetings, but ran to the middle-aged couple behind the old man. "Father, mother!"

"Oh, our dear daughter." Middle aged couples should not have seen their daughter for a long time. As soon as they meet, the atmosphere is particularly friendly.

In addition to the middle-aged couple, there is a half-aged boy and a smaller girl calling her sister around Ailian. Locke has heard from Ailian that these two should be her brother and sister.

"Who are you, please?" The silver haired old man noticed Locke who got off the carriage with Elaine early on. Although the atmosphere of the Amor empire was open, it was unacceptable for unmarried men and women to share a carriage in their small place.

"Hello, uncle Bessel. My name is Locke. I'm Elaine's classmate!" Anyway, he wanted to play the role of fiance. Locke simply called the old man "Uncle", shook hands and said.

"Oh, Hello!" Although Bessel still had some doubts, he handed his hand to Locke's handshake.

Not everyone in Imperial College can enter. Since this young man named Locke is a classmate of Ailian, he wants to have a good background. The old man thinks about this aspect.
