It was late at night, and a few dark clouds in the sky covered the cold moonlight.
The ordinary imperial prison ushered in very special guests at this time. The princess Michelle of the Empire came to visit Masefield late at night and asked to see Masefield.
Because Michel was carrying the royal administrative badge, he hardly encountered any obstacles, and was led by the guards into the imperial prison.
The prison is divided into men and women. Since Masefield is a thorn knight, the warden did not embarrass her and arranged a good single cell for her detention.
Masefield had already taken off the heavy and glamorous armor and put on casual clothes at home, instantly becoming a beautiful girl.
The lavender hair swayed slightly in the evening breeze, and there was no white expression on his face, it looked extremely cold.
Sitting on the cold ground, Masefield was in a mess. From the moment he entered the cell, he kept thinking about it.
Why did Queen Elizabeth become like that?
In order to achieve one's own goals, start all kinds of unscrupulous means.
Even the dignity of being a royal family can be discarded, and even the tricks of pretending to be three kinds of abuse can be used?
Does that great Elgin swordsman, who has hardly done anything bad, make His Majesty feel so uneasy?
And he imprisoned several thorn knights unceremoniously. What is the difference between this and self-determination of left and right hands?
If the Offre family rebellion begins, who will deal with it?
There were worries in Masefield's heart, but at this time Michelle's voice suddenly sounded, breaking the silence of the prison.
"Sister Windsor!"
Michelle was wearing a white robe, she lifted her hood and walked quickly to the prison.
"His Royal Highness Michel..." Masefield's eyes widened, he stood up and walked towards the princess, "Why are you here?"
"Of course I am worried about you. If you don't come and see, you will always be awake." Deep worry flashed between Michel's eyebrows.
"Uh..." Masefield was speechless, his heart warmed, and he smiled and said, "What can I do? I'm fine."
"I just pleaded with the queen, but it didn't work. Sister Windsor, am I very useless?" Michele couldn't help but feel depressed, feeling that she could not help with anything.
Masefield was astonished. He didn't expect Michelle to intercede for himself, "Michelle, don’t use it, don’t do extra things. The tasks that your Majesty has given me have repeatedly failed. Being punished is not something worthy of sympathy. , You don’t need to do so much for me."
"But those things are not your fault..." Michelle was a little unbalanced.
"It's okay. I swear to be loyal to your Majesty. No matter what decision your Majesty makes, I will choose to respect it." Masefield said seriously. Although she was dissatisfied with the Queen in her heart, she did not want Michelle to be involved. In chaos.
"Well……"
Michelle lowered her head, thinking of the blue pendant just now, all kinds of doubts suddenly came to her mind.
She felt that this matter should not be told to others, but she felt very uncomfortable in her heart.
He is now very suspicious, is Elizabeth now his real mother?
Michelle felt that Masefield was a trustworthy person, so she couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
"Sister Windsor, have you ever thought about my mother..."
"Actually, it's my aunt who died?"
Chapter 13: Monthly Ticket Plus
Masefield's heart trembled uncontrollably, and it was hard to imagine the shocking words that Michelle had said.
Michelle is Elizabeth's biological daughter, and now she doubts her mother's identity!?
Masefield calmed down a bit, trying to make himself serious.
"His Royal Highness Michel, don't talk nonsense, it is not a trivial matter to be heard by others.
"I know it's not a trivial matter, but I really think so..." Michelle raised her head and asked seriously, "Don't Sister Windsor think that? The queen mother sometimes looks too like my aunt..."
Masefield did not speak, but chose to remain silent, because, as Michelle said, this kind of illusion is not once or twice, but Elizabeth's sister has been dead for a long time, and she was there when she was buried.
"I feel that the current queen is my aunt, not my mother..." Michelle only dared to tell the truth in front of Masefield.
"His Royal Highness, Michelle, don't talk nonsense, or you will cause trouble!" Masefield said in a very serious tone, for fear that the little princess would be thinking wildly.
"Sister Windsor, I didn’t talk nonsense. I just saw the pendant given to the queen by my grandfather with Isabella’s name written on it, but my aunt had already buried this pendant with it. Think about it, I'm afraid there is only one explanation..." Michelle didn't mean to be joking at all, hoping to get Masefield's approval.
Masefield's face was full of numbness, and when she heard what Michelle said, her calm heart suddenly set off a stormy sea.
He was also a little impressed with that sapphire pendant. When she first became a knight, Elizabeth also said that she would give it to herself.
However, Masefield felt that this was not good, so he refused, but behind Elizabeth's pendant, it was written What the hell is Isabella's name!It's abnormal.
"Maybe...maybe it's just a coincidence..."
Masefield responded in a cold sweat, still reluctant to believe in such terrible things. It was not Elizabeth who ruled, but Isabella ruled for so long, and no one knew it. This was the rhythm of subjugation in minutes.
"It can't be a coincidence. Since the death of my aunt, I feel like my mother's queen has changed. No one knows her mother better than me." Michelle looked serious and hoped that Masefield could believe in herself.
Masefield's expression was a little bit abrupt, and he thought about it a little bit in his heart. Combining the queen's deeds and the sapphire pendant incident, it seemed really suspicious, too much like Isabella.
Elizabeth and Isabella are twin sisters, if you want to pretend to be a queen, there is no difficulty at all.
If what Michelle said is true, and now Elizabeth is pretended by Isabella, this matter becomes extremely complicated.
"His Royal Highness, are you serious? Didn't you say panic?"
"Sister Windsor, why should I lie at this time?" Michelle asked back, frowning her eyebrows very seriously.
Masefield calmed down a bit and asked calmly, "Your Highness, what are you going to do?"
"Now I don't have any support from any forces, I am afraid it is difficult to investigate this matter, so I plan to seek support." Michelle's thinking is fairly clear, not the first time to question the mother and queen, but choose to attract foreign aid.
Masefield fell silent, thinking that Michelle was still sane, and that this investigation might be related to the fate of the entire empire.
If possible, Masefield would like to help Michelle secretly, but now that he is detained, it may be difficult to act.
"His Royal Highness, who do you plan to find to support you?"
"The Duke of Rose of Wales, now most of the kingdom's army is going to the northern English defense line to resist the Ofre family, his power is enough to shake the current royal guard army." Michelle's thinking is very clear, even the foreign aid candidates are determined.
"Duke Rose is willing to help you?" Masefield looked puzzled, and heard this extremely low-key Lord Duke, with all kinds of rumors of indifference.
"Yes." Michelle nodded heavily and said in a positive tone
"Duke Rose's daughter Cecilia and I are classmates in the seminary..."
Wrexham half a month later.
The chaos of the empire has gradually been revealed and has become known to passers-by.
Although no official announcement was made by the Empire, many people knew it well.
The news that Grand Duke Ofre was about to rebel and the turmoil in the empire was about to start was not circulated in disorder.
Because Elizabeth sent troops from various places to gather in the north of England, it was too obvious, which obviously formed a tendency to encircle the territory of the Ofre family.
This action had a significant impact, and instantly covered up Queen Elizabeth's deception of the people. Most people were concerned about the civil war in the empire.
Many people are worried that the empire will fall into an era of turmoil and chaos. Seeing that the royal family's actions are so huge this time, the people are in panic.
At this time, Earl Austin, the lord of Wrexham, also responded to Queen Elizabeth's call and sent the family's private army to join the turmoil and guard the peace of the empire.
And this time the leader of the Austin family is no one else but the eldest son Arnold.
The townspeople of Wrexham came out to see them off, throwing flowers into the sky
"I am planning to leave now. I will most likely be in danger and will never be able to return to Wrexham alive. After all, the battlefield is cruel. I am about to face the iron cavalry of Grand Duke Ofre. Become the martyrs of Wrexham, don’t forget to offer me the most beautiful wild flowers in early spring, and don’t forget to offer a bouquet to Miss Alice instead of me. Finally, say goodbye to Miss Alice for me..."
What Arnold said was impassioned, and it sounded so touching, like a soldier about to die on the battlefield, full of sadness.
"You can pull it down~" Hobbs couldn't help it, and said, "Just like you, when the charge horn sounded, it was definitely the first deserter on the battlefield. And don't provoke me in front of Merlin. My wife, it's so rude..."
"Ha..." Merlin gave a dry laugh beside him, not much mind, Alice is not her real wife either, and she will pay off her debts and go away.
Now Arnold is about to set off, but seeing Merlin and Hobbs, can't help dismounting and come over to talk.
In fact, it was mainly because he didn't see Alice before leaving Wrexham, and Arnold felt a little disturbed.
Could it be that Arnold changed into a handsome armor today, with Austin's family crest on his back.
If he didn't show it in front of Alice, Arnold felt too bad.
"Ahem!"
Arnold coughed awkwardly, shaking the rose in his hand solemnly.
"I didn't tease Miss Alice."
"It's just that Miss Alice is my dream goddess."
"If I don't express my feelings clearly, it will be a regret in my life."
Merlin and Hobbes got goose bumps all over when they looked at Arnold entering the shiny and bright poet mode
This stuff...
Are you really planning to go to the battlefield?!
