"Master Earl, would you like to wash and eat first, I'll come back later?"
Count Nicole bowed and stood by the table, only to realize that he was a little over-excited.
However, it was inevitable that Earl Nicole had some gaffes when he first came to power. At this time, there were thick dark circles on his face, and he had obviously stayed up all night, but his eyes were radiant and his spirit was especially excited.
This is the magic of power, more effective than things like coffee and stimulants.
"No." Colin, wearing a nightgown, sat down at the table and poured himself a cup of coffee. "Did you discuss it?"
"Yes, Lord Earl, this is a troop dispatch plan that we drafted overnight. Please have a look."
With that, Earl Nicole handed over a thick scroll.
Colin took a sip of the bitter coffee, took it smoothly, and looked through it carefully.
At this time, light footsteps sounded in the room.
Count Nicole looked up and saw that the marquise was walking out in a thin, close-fitting nightdress.
"Good morning, Earl Nicole." The marquise greeted her in a lazy tone.
Smooth and exquisite feet fell on the thick cashmere carpet, and the slender and white legs were looming in the nightdress.
"Good morning, Marquise." Count Nicole quickly lowered his head, not daring to look more, and at the same time hiding the expression on his face.
The marquise leaned over and pecked on Colin's face, and said warmly: "Should I have someone bring breakfast here?"
"Okay." Colin nodded casually, his eyes still on the plan of Count Nicole.
He also knew that the marquise had deliberately come out to announce their relationship to Earl Nicole--
The lover of Count Angele.
This status can allow the Marquise to regain the status that no one dares to insult in Bailu Castle, and it will also have a great impact on the political ecology of the East.
At least for now, Count Nicole dared not look at the Marquise with his previous eyes.
Similarly, he has to rethink how to handle the relationship with Eckert...
The room fell silent, only the sound of Colin turning the parchment roll and the crackling of firewood in the fireplace.
After a while, under the command of the marquise, the maids walked in with a rich breakfast.
The marquise herself poured Colin a glass of milk, with a gentle expression like a little wife serving her husband.
Colin lifted his head from the scroll and said to Earl Nicole:
"The plan is well done. I am very happy that you can reach an agreement between the lords of the East in such a short period of time. Moreover, I like the way you let the lords to intercept church taxes in the territory by themselves. This way Let me see if anyone would rather bleed heavily than provoke the church.
You also pay attention to it, and then make a list for me. "
"Yes." Count Nicole responded, silently mourning for the faithful families of those churches.
Colin took a sip of the milk and said, "In addition, there is something wrong with the Hall family..."
Hearing the Hall family, Earl Nicole couldn't help but glanced at the marquise, and found the other person's expression at ease, as if the name had nothing to do with her.
"Lord Earl, I may not have written clearly, but I also know that the Hall family armies are all naval forces and are not suitable for this expedition. Therefore, the plan only lists the funds, food, and labor that the Hall family needs to provide. Share, and did not require the Hall family to send troops..."
"No." Colin shook his head slowly, "I mean, the Hall family shouldn't appear in this plan."
Count Nicole looked at Colin suspiciously, thinking that the other party wanted to exempt the Hall family from the share that should be borne, and suddenly became a little anxious.
But before he could give any advice, he listened to Colin to continue:
"The Hall family is about to migrate to the northern border, so their share will be counted on the northern border."
Hearing this, the marquise finally could no longer remain calm, and the knife for cutting the steak accidentally cut her skin, but she immediately put her finger in her mouth and resisted without screaming.
Earl Nicole also buried his head deeply, and he dared not have any extra thoughts in his heart.
The Hall family's involvement in the northern territory means that Nushui River will no longer be a barrier to the eastern territory. As long as Colin is willing, he can lead the northern army to come again at any time.
"Yes, Lord Earl, I am going to revise the plan again and hand it over to you later."
"good."
After Earl Nicole retired, the marquise put the cut steak in front of Colin, and then turned to cut the orange.
But she didn't ask anything about the Holl family's relocation to the north as mentioned by Colin.
"Are your hands okay?"
"It's okay, a little hurt."
Colin looked at the marquise who was serving him next to him, and nodded secretly in his heart.
This is a smart woman who knows how to measure, but similarly, Colin also sees that she is a weak-hearted woman, not too ambitious, just wanting to be attached to the strong.
If it hadn't been for the decline of the line of the Saint Pros family, their mother and son's situation in Bailu Castle was too dangerous, I'm afraid she would not take the initiative to come to Colin.
Such a woman should be easier to control, and it can save Colin a lot of trouble.
"The Hall family's territory in the north has been arranged. When they settle down, you can come and have a look."
"Ok, thank you!"
"In addition, I am going to lead my army back to the northern border tomorrow. The Hall family members in Bailu City will leave with the army. You can go and say goodbye as soon as possible."
"So soon..." The marquise stopped the knife in her hand, with a panic and worry in her eyes.
"Well, the Northern Territory also needs to respond to your majesty's war order. I must go back to prepare this morning." Colin said, patted the marquise's hand, and comforted, "Don't worry, I am here now, your mother and son are in the East. No one dared to move."
"Yeah." The marquise lifted a strand of hair behind her ears, calmly said, "Then I will let Eckert come to see you?"
"Okay, you bring him here."
"Okay." The marquise smiled sweetly, leaned to Colin's side and gave a sweet kiss, and then went to order the maid to bring Eckert.
When Colin finished his breakfast, Eckert happened to walk into the room.
"Mother!" It seemed that because he hadn't seen the marquise all night, Eckert was crying a little.
The marquise straightened her face and said:
"Eckert, come and see your teacher, Lord Count Angele!"
Eckert, who was about to plunge into his mother's arms, paused hesitantly, turned his gaze to Colin, and then looked at the marquise as if asking for help.
Seeing the marquise nodded quietly, Eckert quickly saluted Colin respectfully and said: "Teacher!"
Colin nodded and asked with a smile: "Eckert, how old are you?"
"Three years old."
"Are there any wishes? The teacher can help you realize it." Colin asked casually.
Eckert cheered up and said crisply: "Teacher, I want to avenge my father!"
Colin looked stiff and said, "Then do you know who is the enemy who killed your father?"
Eckert shook his head dejectedly.
Colin smiled slightly and said:
"Then you remember, the person who killed your father, named Mr. Coquettish, is the remnant of Saint Theon's family!"
"Well, teacher, I remembered it!"
Eckert clenched his fists and nodded fiercely.
"I will definitely help you get revenge as a teacher in the future!" Colin smiled.
Suddenly, I felt like the villain in China.
