I was beheaded in the Middle Ages for 20 years

John knelt beside the bed, holding Philip VI's hand tightly with both hands.

Tears kept falling, he cried and roared.

But Philip VI on the bed could no longer respond to him, and his eyes had long been relieved and closed and no longer opened.

Philip VI the Lucky, formerly known as Philippe de Valois.

The first king of the Valois dynasty of France.

Born in 1293.

Died in 1347.

He was 54 years old.

In the church of the Palais Royal in Paris, the death knell rang again.

The sound of the bell was like a long mourning, breaking everything.

The sharp bells pierced the sky, passed through the city walls, and spread outside Paris, causing an echo.

The guards of the palace, palace officials, and the people of Paris looked at each other in shock.

The whole of Paris fell into dead silence.

Since Xu Siling forcibly abducted Princess Blanche, the fiancée of Philip VI, from the wedding hall of the palace.

Philip VI, who was so angry that he vomited blood and fainted at the scene, had already given out signs of poor health.

But after the palace doctor examined him, he also brought news of the diagnosis to Paris.

It is true that he is not in good health, but it is not that simple to want the old king to die.

Some people believe it and some don't.

At least the nobles are ready to welcome John to the throne at any time.

But when the death knell rang, Paris, who was already mentally prepared, fell into panic.

The news was not concealed at all, and soldiers began to strictly guard their posts in Paris and no noise was allowed.

The news of the king's death due to illness was once again confirmed to the people.

Many nobles loyal to the king shed tears quietly, and many people looked sad.

John was so distraught that he left the palace and slowly moved towards his home.

Until they returned to the door of the mansion, his wife Bonnet and his children were looking at John extremely anxiously.

Bonnet's inner suspicions had been answered from John's lost expression.

Because after the death of John's mother Jeanne, John had the same expression.

"Oh my husband."

Bonnet was extremely distressed and hurriedly stepped forward and threw himself into John's arms.

The children asked anxiously what happened in the palace.

John took a deep breath and announced to the children that their grandfather had passed away.

In less than two months, the children's grandparents passed away one after another.

They burst into tears.

These children did not know what Philip VI had done, but they knew that their grandparents had always been good to them.

Bonnet led John back to the bedroom and looked at her husband's entire soul, still trapped in the palace and unable to get out.

There was a dull pain inside her.

In the eyes of outsiders, John is the guardian of the spirit of knightly faith. He never frowns when faced with any difficulties, always faces difficulties, knows no fear, and is not afraid of evil spirits.

But only his wife Bonnet knew that John was a man with an extremely fragile heart.

"John, it's time for you to step out."

John couldn't help crying again, and he put his hands on Bonnet's shoulders.

"Father, he didn't die of illness. He was me. I personally brought him the water glass. There was something in that water glass, but I didn't know, I didn't know! Father drank it, and he knew there was something in it! He knew it, but he still drank! Including the death of the Pope, it was all related to his father!" John collapsed several times, "I killed him!"

Bonnet was so smart that he immediately understood what was happening.

I was shocked by Philip VI's suicide, but immediately understood it deeply.

Not long after Pope Clement VI died of illness, Philip VI committed suicide. Was this all Philip VI's plan?

"Husband, please calm down. None of this is your fault. You did nothing wrong. You didn't make any wrong choices. It was His Majesty the King who made the choice."

"But I"

"Respect your father's choice. He chose to leave at this time and had his own thoughts. John, my good husband, don't let down His Majesty the King."

John gradually calmed down, and then he remembered what Philip VI said before leaving.

"Bone, my father asked me to ask you. He said he had to leave at this time. Why? He said he wanted to buy me time! What time do I need? I don't know, what time I need. I only know that I have nothing Didn't stay."

Bonnet slowly closed his eyes, feeling a little uncomfortable, but then he opened them anyway.

Pulling John to the bedside and sitting down, she slowly explained all the plans behind Philip VI's suicide.

"His Majesty the King is not in good health. His goal has always been to solve all potential and superficial troubles faced by the royal family, help you ascend to the throne smoothly, and pave the way for you."

"Pave the way for me." John lowered his head and murmured.

"John, do you still remember how many troubles His Majesty the King has?"

"The feud between the British and the aristocrats Xu and Miss Raya Pope and Blanche."

"That's right." Bonnet pursed his lips slightly, "The reason why His Majesty the King chose to die now is that his death can solve all troubles!"

"how come!"

After Bonnet's simple explanation, John gradually understood.

If Philip VI dies in half a year, there will be absolutely no current effect. He must choose to die now. Only by dying now can he solve all problems in an instant and leave with peace of mind.

"John, what do you think of the current relationship between the royal family and the nobility?"

John pursed his lips slightly: "Not too good. On the surface, he agrees and has a friendly attitude, but he is disloyal. The reason why it evolved like this is because of the failure of the Battle of Crecy."

"That's right. Then John, do you think you can solve this problem after you take over?"

"Can" John said this without much confidence.

"I also believe you can, but this problem has been difficult to solve from the beginning. It is extremely difficult to solve it. This problem can only be alleviated, and then use time to promote the integration and let the nobles trust the royal family again." Bonnet said seriously, " And how to alleviate this problem directly?”

John replied blankly: "My father passed away?"

Bonnet sighed and nodded: "The nobles do not trust the royal family and have resentment towards the royal family. This is all because of the huge defeat at the Battle of Crecy, which caused all the noble families in France to lose many family members. And the most direct source of the problem of hatred is Even with His Majesty the King, as long as he dies! Although this problem will not end or be solved, it will greatly ease the relationship between the nobles and the royal family. "

"Because of you! My husband."

"You are not His Majesty the King, and your way of doing things is not like him! You are upright, brave, kind and gentle. Although you are evaluated by the nobles as the crown prince who is least like the crown prince. But because of the difference between you and the king, your ascendance has made the nobles They create expectations.”

"Perhaps you can do better than His Majesty the King."

"His Majesty the King is old. He cannot lead the French nobles to avenge their disgrace and defeat the British."

"But there are great possibilities in you, so as long as His Majesty the King dies and you succeed in taking the throne, the nobles will expect you to lead them in revenge! Take back everything they lost!"

"But His Majesty the King's death is not enough!"

"His death can only alleviate the problem, but it cannot solve it! So he must die now. Only by dying now can..."

Bonnet looked seriously into John's eyes: "Only in this way can this problem be completely solved, so that the nobility and the royal family can regain the close relationship they once had."

John shook his head in confusion: "I don't understand, why can this problem be solved only if my father is dead now? Didn't you say that my father's death can only alleviate it?"

"Because in order to completely solve this problem, His Majesty the King needs a three-pronged approach, and his death is just one of them."

Bonnet sighed, and then asked softly: "My husband, who do you think scares the nobles now? Is it the British? Or the royal family, or the Holy See."

John immediately realized that Bonnet had mentioned all his choices, but there was only one choice left unsaid.

"It's Xu. And Miss Raya."

"Yes, it is Miss Raya and Xu who are frightening the nobles now. They have good relations with the royal family, hold the position of saints in the Holy See, and have the power of cardinals. They can easily influence the behavior of the nobles, but you Didn’t you notice? Miss Raya and Xu seem to have a close relationship with any force, but they don’t belong to either party, and the most superficial relationship is with the nobles. "

"Not to mention, all the things they did in the Battle of Talmubao, without exception, directly created a gap between them and the nobles. No one knows what they want, including us."

"And the relationship between the royal family and Miss Raya and Xu is too friendly, which makes the nobles even more afraid."

Bonet held John's hand and asked: "Tell me, now that His Majesty the King is dead, who is the person who has been most affected by the incident?"

"It's Xu!" John murmured, "Xu is still Miss Raya's only knight. My father died of illness. People in the entire kingdom will think that it was Xu's actions in the palace that indirectly forced my father to death. !”

"Yes, husband, this is the best time to suppress Miss Raya and Xu. Their influence is too terrifying. No matter how much we trust Xu, you have to understand that they are still a potential crisis. His Majesty the King will not let this happen. Leave with peace of mind, so he must die now to suppress them and buy you time. Death after half a year, and death after a year will not achieve the effect His Majesty wants. "

John finally asked his doubts: "So, Bonnet, what time is my father trying to buy me?"

"Strive for time to establish a common imaginary enemy between the royal family and the nobility."

"imaginary enemy"

At this moment, John finally understood everything, why his father Philip VI chose this time to die.

Because only by dying at this time can the relationship between the royal family and Xu Siling be cut off directly on the surface.

Bonnet said before that in order to completely solve this problem, His Majesty the King needs to take a three-pronged approach, and his death is just one of them.

And completely suppressing Fei'er and Xu Siling, and cutting off the apparent relationship between the royal family and Xu Siling, are two of them.

In the eyes of outsiders, Xu Siling is the biggest murderer who forced the king to death, and as the king's son, John is unlikely to support Xu Siling at this time. In everyone's eyes, the relationship between the royal family and Miss Raya will fall into a freezing point.

It just so happened that the nobles and the royal family had a common imaginary enemy, Fei'er and Xu Siling.

Philip VI used his own death to forcibly create enemies of both sides, forcing the royal family and the nobility to unite the front.

It can not only suppress Feier and Xu Siling, but also subconsciously ease the tense relationship between the nobles and the royal family.

The plan was perfect.

John woke up with a start and then looked at his wife Bonnet.

"Didn't you say that my father's plan to resolve the discord with the nobles was a three-pronged plan? But you only mentioned one and two, what about the third?"

"Third." Bonnet turned to the dressing table, took out a letter from it, and handed it to John: "This is the letter that His Majesty the King left for me a few days ago. He asked me not to tell you, I’ll give it to you after he dies.”

John quickly opened it and read it. The content was very simple.

Philip VI asked Bonnet to remind John that after his death, it was directly spread that the death of Queen Jeanne was related to the British.

It was the British who arranged for people to kill him.

The forged evidence is all ready, John only needs to arrange it.

The whole of France will believe that the death of Queen Jeanne is related to the British.

Even if some nobles have doubts, they still have to believe it.

In this case, the royal family and the nobility once again had an imaginary enemy.

Or this shouldn't be called an imaginary enemy, but an outright enemy.

Why did Philip VI have to allow the death of Queen Jeanne to be spread after he committed suicide?
Because this was Philip VI's three-pronged plan.

This three-pronged plan cannot work without one of them, not at the same time, let alone!

If you want to directly solve the relationship between the royal family and the nobility, you can only let these three problems explode together!
Completely forcibly binding the royal family and the nobility together.

The royal family and nobles must be united at this time to deal with all the enemies in front of them.

The nobles had already had expectations for John's ascension. Under Philip VI's plan, the impact of the fiasco at the Battle of Crecy would not completely disappear, but it would make up for all the rifts in the relationship to the greatest extent possible.

John was lost and the letter in his hand fell quietly on the carpet. He understood everything completely.

Bonnet is right.

After Philip VI discovered that he had physical problems, he knew that he didn't have much time left, so he started to make all the plans. Before he died, he had to solve all the troubles, and everything he did was for John, for him. good son.

Paving the way for him to become king.

What John has to do is enjoy everything as a matter of course.

Enjoy the smooth path of Philip VI without asking for anything in return.

John never liked being disciplined by Philip VI, let alone his preaching.

He felt that Philip VI just wanted to control him and treat him as a royal dog. He would do whatever he asked him to do.

Make fun of his chivalry, mock the tales of chivalry he admires, try to dispel his illusions.

But the reason why Philip VI did this was because Philip VI understood that France did not need a perfect knight now.

France now needs a master that the nobles can trust, and a king that the nobles can trust.

As Philip VI said to John before, there are other people who can do the perfect knight. There are even perfect knights. Why can't you put down your ridiculous dreams and try to be a perfect crown prince? Be a perfect king?

In fact, John was a disobedient child, but Philip VI never blamed John until his death.

John felt at this time that he had been getting rid of his father's control all his life. He clearly didn't want to follow the path arranged by him and wanted to get rid of his father's influence on him.

But finally he suddenly realized it.

It turns out that I never left
His father was always behind him, watching him tenderly.

Even though Philip VI was dead, John still felt that there were a pair of old and feeble hands behind him, gently pushing him.

As if whispering in the ear.

"Go forward boldly, my child, don't stop, don't look back."

John sat on the edge of the bed, clenching his fists tightly. For the first time, he hated it so much.

I hate myself for not being smart enough, I hate myself for pursuing the path of knighthood like a fool, I hate myself for not being more like Philip VI.

If he were like Philip VI, he could help Philip VI from the beginning.

Instead of standing with the nobles after the failure of the Battle of Crecy and jointly blaming the French criminals!
Blame your own father!
Bo Xin held John's hand tightly in pain.

"John, you should know very well that because of Miss Raya's relationship, our war with the British has entered the preparation stage. But as long as His Majesty the King does not die, the nobles will not win France, because they do not believe that His Majesty the King can lead them. To avenge the shame, His Majesty the King can only die and let the nobles believe in you. "

"But he cannot die when war breaks out, otherwise it will have a great impact on the morale of the French army, so he must die early!"

"And in order to completely suppress the influence of Miss Raya and Xu, Pope Clement VI must also die."

"As long as the pope whom Miss Raya is friends with dies, then when Miss Raya and Xu face the aristocratic crusade, the Holy See will not be able to bring help to Miss Raya."

"Now the Holy See is too busy with the papal election. The only person who cares about Miss Raya is dead, and Miss Raya is alone."

"Miss Raya should have known that she does not belong to the royal family, the nobility, or the Holy See."

"Then she should accept that she chooses not to belong to any party, so she must do it at any time and avoid the possibility of being helped by any party or being tricked by any party."

"And all of this is in His Majesty's plan."

John stood up immediately and gritted his teeth.

"Bonnet, I have to write a letter to Xu!"

Bonnet quickly stood up to stop him.

"No, no, my husband."

"Why? We have always had a good relationship with Xu. He is my friend and my brother. He is a person worthy of trust and entrustment. Have you forgotten? Doing this will completely break our relationship with Xu !”

"I haven't forgotten, John." Bonnet sighed helplessly, "But John, don't let down your father."

"I didn't let it down."

Bonnet's gentle concern and persuasion: "Of course you have to write a letter, but not to Xu, but to Charlie."

"Yes, write to Charlie!"

Bonnet nodded slowly: "You have to comfort Charlie and let him stay with Xu. As long as Charlie is still with Xu, this will prove to Xu that you are in trouble."

"Our relationship with Xu will not be broken because of this. His Majesty the King is aware of his health problems, but you just can't help him solve the problem at this time."

"If you have anything to say, you can entrust it to Charlie and ask him to tell it to Xu, so that Xu can believe us."

"Let Xu know that as soon as the time is up, you will come forward to help him eliminate the influence. You are still his good friend, and friends naturally have to protect and help each other."

"Xu is a smart man, he will understand you."

After hearing his wife Bonnet's explanation, John suddenly felt that there was nothing wrong.

As long as Charlie is in Raya Town, he will still be Xu Siling's student.

As long as he didn't call Charles to come back to Paris, he indirectly told Xu Siling that his relationship with Xu Siling had never been affected by the death of Philip VI.

But at this time, he really couldn't stand up and protect Xu Siling.

"Yes, my good wife, you are right!"

Bonnet finally smiled when he saw this.

She took a step back and saluted her husband, John, who was startled.

"Husband, you are the supreme king of France, and you will lead the Valois family to glory."

John's chest felt hot when he saw this. Yes, although he had not yet gone to Reims Cathedral to be canonized, he was indeed a king in name only.

He.is the king!
John hugged his wife and kissed her hard.

Then he immediately ran to the study to prepare a letter.

Just as John left the bedroom. Bonnet picked up the letter from the carpet, looked at it again, and then burned the letter.

She called the housekeeper.

Bonnet looked at the housekeeper coldly and gave instructions slowly.

"I've already told you how to spread the news about Queen Jeanne's death and the British."

"Keep this in mind, my lady."

Just as the butler was about to leave, Bonet called him again.

"besides."

Bonnet's eyes narrowed, making it difficult to see her eyes and understand her thoughts.

"If the word gets out again, John will write to Charles today to signal him to return to Paris."

The butler was stunned. Having served the Valois family all his life, he couldn't help but worry.

"Would it not affect the relationship between Madam and Xu if the young master comes back at this time?"

"will not."

The housekeeper was surprised: "It won't affect it?"

"Do not."

Bonnet took the letter's ashes in his hand and scattered them on the carpet, causing her hands to turn black.

"It's Charlie who won't come back."

It took five days for the death of Pope Clement VI to be fully felt throughout the kingdom.

But it only took three days for the news of Philip VI's death.

After everyone learned that Philip VI had died of illness.

Public opinion about the king being forced to death by Xu Siling suddenly broke out.

The disastrous defeat at the Battle of Crecy indeed made many people feel that Philip VI was a failed king.

But no one ever thought that his king should die.

Philip VI was not a successful king, but he was not a sinful king either.

He still deserves everyone's respect.

In the wedding hall, Xu Siling humiliated Philip VI and took away his fiancée in front of the world.

Philip VI fainted and vomited blood at the scene.

Everyone knows this.

As long as nothing happens to Philip VI, everyone will only think that Xu Siling is a romantic and perfect knight.

As a knight, it's acceptable to do this for love. After all, the king didn't blame Xu Siling, right?
However, Philip VI suddenly died of illness, which caused Xu Siling's reputation to suddenly change.

Everyone was talking about Xu Siling, feeling that he was responsible for the king's death.

Not to mention that the king was so angry that he fainted from your anger, but the king still did not blame Xu Siling, which undoubtedly highlights the king's tolerance.

The nobles didn't like Fei'er and Xu Siling because of their stance and the Battle of Tamubao, so they all stood up to denounce them.

The French people feel that Xu Siling has to bear everything, but it has nothing to do with Saint Laya.

But the French nobles believed that Xu Siling was the only knight of Saint Raya, and she was also Xu Siling's lord. The sins Xu Siling committed should be borne by Saint Raya, and she was the main sinner.

The entire kingdom fell into condemnation of Fei'er and Xu Siling.

The people of Tamubao and Raya Town were not affected too much.

Although most of the people are ignorant.

But they are the ones who have benefited most from the influence of Feier and Xu Siling.

It was Fei'er and Xu Siling who saved them. Without them, so many fleeing people in Tamubao and Raya Town would have died in a corner without anyone to bury them.

The two places began to refute outsiders everywhere with Xu Siling's righteous behavior of killing the bandits alone, and Fei'er's behavior of personally meeting each patient one by one and calming everyone's impatient hearts regardless of the danger.

But this doesn't help.

The populations of Raya Town and Tamubao are indeed large, but compared with the entire kingdom, it is like an ant hitting an elephant. There is no comparison.

The voices speaking for Fei'er and Xu Siling were completely wiped out by the sound.

The Holy See, on the other hand, is still tossing around the election of a new pope because of the death of Clement VI.

No one cared about Fei'er, who had no foundation in the Holy See.

As a saint of the Holy See, the Holy See could not bring any help to Mayfair.

The entire French people are believers in the Holy Religion. It is obvious that as long as the Holy See is willing to come forward, Feier and Xu Siling will not be in such a difficult situation.

And this also indirectly affects Mayfair's control over other nobles in the earl territory.

Any officials and letters sent out were as if nothing had happened, and no response was received.

The nobles of the original earldom have been working hard to pay their taxes.

Because of this incident, it was completely shut down.

Not a single tax escort truck entered Raya Town.

Many nobles even wrote to Mayfair, asking for the return of their taxes.

Especially Angus from Alston Town, his language is even harsher.

That his taxes would be paid with his own hands to the new King John, not to the lords who had killed the previous king.

Angus from Alston Town took a good lead, and all the nobles in the earldom immediately wrote letters and sent people to Raya Town to demand taxes.

Naturally, it didn't cost much. How could Mayfair pay the taxes she got?

Therefore, the relationship between the nobles of Earl Raya and Mayfair fell into a freezing point.

Originally, it was okay, Fei'er could still hold on.

After all, it was just the matter of tax collection that came to a standstill, which was within her expectations and not unexpected.

But what happened next gave Feier a headache.

Not long after the news came out that Xu Siling forced the king to die, another news broke out in Paris.

"John wrote to his son Charlie asking him to leave his grandfather's murderer."

"But Charlie has not returned yet because he was detained in Raya Town by the Perfect Knight and the Saint of Raya!"

"The Perfect Knight and Saint Raya are planning to use Charlie as a hostage to intimidate the royal family from taking any action against them!"

This news is the straw that breaks the camel's back.

In particular, the royal family did not respond to this news, which undoubtedly acquiesces to the authenticity of this news.

Yes, the future Crown Prince Charlie has fallen into the hands of Xu Siling. How can the royal family dare to threaten them with casual words? Aren't you afraid that something might happen to Charlie?

Originally, John had been slow to express his position to Xu Siling about the death of King Philip VI. The nobles were still suspicious and curious about why John did not speak out against his father's murderer.

At this time, the nobles all understood.

It turned out that his son was in the other party's hands, and John didn't dare to speak at all.

Then it is understandable that John has not expressed his stance for a long time.

Anyway, John didn't speak up for Xu Siling, either.

Coupled with the death of Queen Jeanne, the evidence produced by the royal family proves that this has nothing to do with the British!

The idea of ​​​​conquering the British immediately and starting another war was like dry wood meeting a spark, completely ignited!
Therefore, the royal family and the nobility were ingeniously harmonious and stood on the same position.

Countless nobles have come forward to express their expectation that John will ascend to the throne. They all expressed their belief that under the leadership of John, they can avenge their disgrace and beat the British for revenge!
Countless people urged John to go to Reims Cathedral to be canonized.

However, the election of the new pope is still in progress, and John's canonization can only be delayed.

Now the entire kingdom is in a strange state.

John's mother was killed by the British, and John's father was forced to death by Xu Siling, which directly gave John reason to tear up the armistice agreement and declare war on England.

Although John did not express his position towards Xu Siling, he could let go of the crusade against Xu Siling for now.

Because a family feud is hard to beat against a country's ruthlessness.

But this still cannot conceal the pressure exerted by the entire kingdom on Fei'er and Xu Siling.

The spread of the news that Charlie was detained was not only the straw that broke the camel's back, but also broke the relationship between the Earl of Raya and the relationship between Mayfair and the nobles.

The nobles in the earldom became aroused and sent many soldiers to secretly go to the farm of Tamubao and began to snatch supplies!
Human lives were lost during the riot, which plunged Tamburg into chaos.

The nobles of the earldom already have an attitude of, since you won't give it to me, I'll take it myself.

In the villages and manors of Raya Town, because of Xu Siling's presence, they did not dare to send people to cause chaos in Raya Town. If they really wanted to confront Xu Siling directly, they did not think they could win.

But the soldiers on the Tamubao side are only enough to maintain order within the Tamubao, and cannot be sent out at all.

As a result, the villages in Tamubao territory fell into panic and chaos.

When Fei'er heard about this, she was so angry that she wanted to open all the cabinets in the bookstore.

The nobles under his command are shaking things up, and they dare to rob the supplies of their own territory!

She couldn't even think about such a thing.

Who would have thought that something extremely ridiculous would happen to her?
Mayfair could only send soldiers to support Tamubao, but this did not help.

The nobles in the earldom seemed to be in communication with each other, and they all united to take back the taxes they had paid before.

No one bowed to Mayfair.

The people will not blame Mayfair for the king's death.

But that doesn't mean that the nobles will let go of the opportunity to attack Mayfair.

The soldiers that Mayfair sent to Tamubao couldn't do much.

For this reason, she gritted her teeth and directly dragged Xu Siling out of the manor's soldier camp, handed over all management of Raya Town to him, and let him take charge of Raya Town.

Gino and Thom, the law enforcement officers of Raya Town, were also handling matters in Tamubao at this time.

Raya Town can only be handed over to Xu Siling for management.

Mayfair led a large number of knights' retinue to Tamu Castle.

Fei'er wanted to see if these nobles were really going to turn the world upside down.

Xu Siling knew these things and suggested that he go to Tamubao to resolve these matters.

As long as this group of people dared to come, he would kill one by one, or a pair of pairs, and he would definitely gather them together to go up to see Jesus.

But the reason why Fei'er decided to go to Tamubao in person was because she didn't want Xu Siling to kill anyone.

If Xu Siling had a conflict with the nobles of the earldom at this juncture and killed someone.

Then the pressure they face will not be as simple as the scope of the earldom.

It will be a complete riot!

Fei'er couldn't bear such great pressure. If she could stabilize this matter, it would be fine even if the taxes could not be collected. However, Tamubao and Raya Town were her territory, not to mention Raya Town was her roots. She had to Hold still.

Mayfair believed that as long as she went to Tamu Castle in person, these nobles should stop messing around.

No matter what, she Feier is the master of Earl Raya and their lord.

None of the nobles under his command would dare to attack and rob the Tamubao village of supplies even though they knew she was there.

Not to mention that she came with many knights' retinue.

Although these Paris knight retinues had some complaints about Feier and Xu Siling.

But out of basic principles, nothing unusual appeared.

If the people in the earldom really don’t know the heights of the world and know that Mayfair is in Tamubao, they still dare to do this and attack her village.

Then Fei'er doesn't mind conflicts, let alone someone dying!

Mayfair couldn't bear the pressure and didn't want the Earldom to riot.

But if the nobles of the earldom really want to rebel against their lords and attack Tamu Castle, that is another matter.

Mayfair's tolerance will not be reflected at this moment.

No count could accept this happening.

Now Fei'er was walking on thin ice. She led people to Tamu Castle, hoping that these nobles would not be really stupid.

In her heart, Feier still subconsciously did not want a riot to occur in her county.

Her mind could no longer think about what happened in Paris.

Xu Siling at this time.

He was sitting on a chair in the bookstore of the inner castle of Raya Town.

He replaced Mayfair and sat in the seat that originally belonged to Mayfair.

He would just deal with some simple problems, nothing difficult. He would delegate them all to his subordinates and let them make their own decisions. If they couldn't make a decision, they would report it to him.

His style of doing things is quite different from Feier's.

In front of the desk, two people were sitting.

One is Charlie, who looks weird, and Blanche, whose facial features are as delicate as works of art, gloomy and full of self-blame.

Xu Siling leaned on the back of the chair and asked Charlie again.

"Charlie, did your father really not mention anything in the letter he wrote to you about asking you to return to Paris?"

Charlie shook his head without hesitation and said seriously: "Teacher, I really didn't mention it. My father just asked me to stay by your side. By the way, let me tell you that he can't speak for you now, but I hope the teacher can believe us. Although... Grandpa's death makes me feel strange, but I don't understand how the rumor that I was coerced and detained by the teacher spread. "

Xu Siling saw that Charlie was not lying, but as for the original letter?
How could this be left? Of course it would be burned down.

He had no reason not to believe Charlie and John.

But Xu Siling was curious, was this kind of statement deliberately released by the nobles? Wanting to use this to influence John's relationship with him.

But if this is the case, this statement spread too smoothly and spread throughout the kingdom without any hindrance.

Too fast, abnormally fast.

If the nobles were throwing dirty water, it would definitely not spread so quickly.

Charlie couldn't help but said: "Teacher, do you need me to go back to Paris or write a letter to these nobles to show that I have not been coerced by the teacher? I don't want the teacher to bear this fallacy without any evidence and further affect your reputation."

Of course Charles would not blame Xu Siling for the death of Philip VI.

He knew the reason why Xu Siling took Blanche away at the wedding venue, not to mention that he also knew the truth about the death of his grandma Jeanne.

Charlie knew that Xu Siling was not to blame for everything.

"If you go back to Paris, the nobles won't believe me. At most, they think that I can't stand the pressure and can only let you go back. But in this case, it will be difficult for your father. He has not expressed his stance to me for a long time. In the eyes of the nobles, , because you are in my hands. If you go back to Paris now, your father will have to express his stance to me, but what should he do if he expresses his stance? He can't protect me at this time, let alone get into trouble with the nobles. Going back will put your father in a dilemma."

Xu Siling snorted coldly: "As for writing to those nobles? Will they believe it? Of course they will think that I coerced you to write such a letter. No one will believe what you say."

Charlie couldn't help but cursed: "Damn it!"

"Hey, Charlie, didn't your culture and art teacher teach you that as a gentleman, you can't use swear words?"

Xu Siling smiled without showing any pressure.

"Oh no, teacher, I'm so angry at you for bearing these unfounded fallacies!"

"Go out, Charlie, and go train with Luo Shui and Vali. Don't stop the daily training sessions."

"Yes."

Charlie gritted his teeth helplessly and had to get up and leave.

After Charlie left, Blanche finally spoke. She looked remorseful, and the gloomy temperament that had disappeared for a long time showed up again.

"I'm sorry, Xu, it's all my fault. If I didn't go with you, if I died in the palace, then..."

"Shut up Blanche." Xu Siling said angrily, "Don't say such nonsense. I know there must be something wrong with Philip VI's death, as conveyed to Charles through John. His death has nothing to do with you or me. ! He wanted to see his queen and go die. "

Blanche couldn't help but lower her head and felt sad: "But if I hadn't left with you, even if the king died, you wouldn't have fallen into this kind of public opinion. This shouldn't be your responsibility. It's my selfishness. It's a royal family matter. It shouldn't be. up to you."

Xu Siling sighed, stood up and came to Blanche, taking her into his arms to comfort her.

He tapped Blanche on the shoulder.

"Blanche, you have to understand that all this has nothing to do with you and me. This is Philip VI's plan. I thought of it that night, but I couldn't make any preparation for that kind of situation."

Xu Siling sighed again and said seriously.

"If you don't take care of yourself, you should also take care of the child in your belly. Don't think nonsense. If I get busy during this period, you have to take care of yourself and Charlie."

"No one can hurt you, let alone me."

"Especially. This situation may not be an opportunity for Mayfair and I."

Blanche was surprised: "Opportunity?"

"The issue of territorial sovereignty cannot be negotiated, let alone humiliated. The nobles of the earldom are already seeking death. Perhaps I can take advantage of this public turmoil to do something I have long wanted to do."

Xu Siling sneered: "If it doesn't rain for three days, first demolish the Dragon King Temple, and then use cannons to bombard it."

Blanche: "???" (End of chapter)
