Chapter 585

The wind rolls like a blade!

After midnight, the Empire had entered the first dawn of 966.

And at this moment, on the streets of Tidu, a carriage was driving lightly, and the horse in the hurry hid his head and ears in his hat, facing the cold wind of dawn, waving his whip.

Mrs. Lister's face was like water, the carriage was driving on a muddy and turbulent road, and there was a small bottle of wine in the compartment. A warm wine had long been cold, but she had not reached out to grab a glass.

Just now, in the Duke's Palace, I talked to Dewey for a long time. At this moment, that sentence, word, sounded in my ear...

“What a whirlpool......”

Mrs. Lister finally returned to God, with deep anxiety on her beautiful face, sighed slightly, finally stretched out two thin fingers, tucked up the glass, drank out the already cold wine, the cold liquid slipped into her mouth, which seemed to slightly depress the irritability in her mind.

After a moment, finally, the carriage stopped, in the other courtyard of the Lester family northwest of the capital city, outside two white feather knights wearing silver leather coats, gently knocked on the door to invite the beautiful hostess out of the carriage in a respectful manner.

“Go... go get Muse to see me.” Mrs. Lister's voice was low.

The nearby waiter seemed hesitant: “Madam, this is dawn, Miss Muse is afraid that she has fallen asleep...”

“Then drag her out of bed!” Mrs. Lister snorted, gently biting her teeth.

A moment later, the sisters finally met in the study. Muse didn't fall asleep. When she came, she was dressed in a cotton robe, but she was sober, except for her short hair, which was a little messy.

Mrs. Lister looked at her sister and dispersed the servant in the room. She stared at her sister for a long time and whispered: “I just got back from Dewey... I've given you Gabriel's engagement...”

Muse was shocked and stared at her with surprise: "What? ”

“I said I'd given you Gabriel's engagement. You will marry Dewey's brother Gabriel.” Mrs. Lister snorted, “Isn't that what you wanted? Tonight, did you know you were in trouble? ”

Muse frowned: “Is there? ”

“The little emperor likes you.” Mrs. Lester knows the size of her sister and doesn't want to talk to her too much: “You can't marry the Emperor, you can look at the Empire, in this case you dare marry, and you have the strength to marry, only the Tulip family! ”

Mrs. Lister's tone finally softened a bit: “You, you like Gabriel, don't you? ”

Muse glanced at him: "Who says I like that kid! Well, he fought with me. How was it? Marry him? Are you kidding me? ”

“Muse!!! ”

Lady Lister suddenly drank with anger, the voice frightened Muse, this beautiful Marquise, suppressed anger, staring at her sister: “Have you not understood the situation yet!! You... you are confused!! ”

Mrs. Lister walked a few steps in the room, shaking her sleeve with agitation and biting her teeth: “I wouldn't have been so anxious to settle this matter! But tonight... Tonight at the banquet, you first refused His Majesty the Emperor's invitation to dance first, then accepted Gabriel's invitation...”

“But it's not a big deal. You know I can't dance, and I don't like to dance.” Muse leaves his mouth shut: “And then Gabriel, the guy who was so nasty, haunted me —— I didn't want to say yes, but you told me before," Be nice to Dewey and his brother, don't offend them. "I did what you asked me to do, and I barely gave that kid a face. ”

Mrs. Lister was so angry that she had to lift her palms and slap her face in the face, she finally died and pressed her anger: “You… you… are… stupid!! ”

She laughed furiously: "When can't you give face! Would you prefer to reject the Emperor before accepting Gabriel at this party? ”

“It's just a dance, it's not a big deal to socialize at such a party. ”

Mrs. Lister looked at the still stubborn sister and finally sat down helplessly, leaning in a chair and sighed: “You still don't understand... if someone like Prince Chen, he might not care about losing such a small face, as you said, it's not a big deal. But that man... Charlie! ”

She closed her eyes and shook her head and smiled bitterly: "Twelve years old to the throne and still with the halo of the Emperor of Heaven... Muse, I told you, how difficult it is for us, the three women, to survive in the circle of these wolves!! On this return to Emperor Du, I have spent countless efforts to investigate, and now in Emperor Du's circle of power, which characters are worth the idea! And this little emperor is at the top of my investigation! Do you know what this little Charlie is like? ”

Muse shook his head: "I don't know, it's just a 12-year-old kid. ”

Mrs. Lester's powerless bitter smile: "A 12-year-old child... Hmm, he is a 12-year-old emperor! Young and cheerful, no one in Emperor's circle of power is preaching his young wisdom, and after my investigation, he was indeed brilliant all day long, but a little too sharp! Last year's Festival of the Feast was his first appearance and he dared to denounce the head of the Temple Holy Knights in public in front of everyone, including His Holiness the Pope, on the banquet! What kind of person is this? Flash, flash, flash! One cheat... is one...”

Mrs. Lister bit her teeth and her face was gloomy and uncertain, slowly saying:

“Cheerful and good! Humph, I thought back carefully about that thing at the festival where he denounced the temple, and everyone out there praised the kid for how smart he was and how arrogant he was... but it seemed to me to be just a huge stupidity! What is the relationship between the temple and the royal family? How many times have the two sides fought in thousands of years? To denounce the Temple, to overwhelm the Church, to disgrace the Church... Don't the Regents want to do this?

Not don't want to, but can't!!

But where's the little emperor? Young and cheerful, just do it! Seems smart, actually reckless! No obscurity! He is the ruler of the future empire. Now that the Regent supports the big picture, he should hide himself better and hide himself under the umbrella of the Regent! At this point, the lower the profile, the better! Outside, there are arrows with open guns, naturally the king of regents! What do you want him to do with a kid?

Hmm, afraid the Church doesn't know that the next generation of emperors is very hostile to the Church??

Good thing he hasn't officially taken power yet, I'm afraid the Church has begun to pay attention to him! Being able to hide behind but throwing yourself in front of the stage... is that smart?

In my opinion, this little emperor, the little smart one has, but not the big wisdom!! ”

It is a tremendous treachery to say that His Majesty the Emperor of the Empire is so blatantly belittled behind his back.

But I'm afraid if Dewey listened to Mrs. Lister while she was there, she would have to applaud her, just because she said it, which was really insane. This hostess of the Lester family has been able to stand up to the imperial circle of power with a woman's body for many years. She is indeed extremely intelligent!

She did not get along with Little Charlie in the morning and evening, but based on the investigation and analysis of one or two things in the past, she analyzed the nature and pie of the Little Emperor in a single moment!!

The words are reasonable, the words are heartfelt! Without truly intelligent people, it's absolutely impossible to analyze.

Indeed, as Mrs Lister said, this little emperor, the little clever one, does, but lacks great wisdom!

Young and sharp, not knowing how to hide awkwardly, even in an ordinary noble house, but in the royal family, heir to the throne... in the future, if you can't improve these defects, you will definitely become his fatal weakness!

Muse stunned, she listened to her sister make such an amazing statement tonight that she had to stay.

“Don't you understand my pain?” Mrs. Lister waved her hand and attended the banquet tonight. She was paid one night. Then she went to see Dewey for a long talk. She was already exhausted. At this moment, she had to get up and point out her sister, which really made her feel deeply powerless.

She finally grabbed Muse's hand and said softly, "Listen, Muse. This little Charlie, in my opinion, is definitely not a big guy. With his past style of action, there's probably no way he just smiled at what happened tonight! Moreover, he was so magnificent that he had attained the throne at a young age, fearing that he could not tolerate others' disobedience. One thing, if he can't get it for a while, he's afraid it'll interest him even more! And if...”

Speaking of which, her face was even more worried and her face was a little pale: “If not only did she not get it, but someone else beside her and he robbed it… she feared that it would only be worse, but it would completely stir up his competing heart! In the noble position of his emperor, if he is truly determined to get something... I'm afraid... it's no good for you, for our family! ”

This beautiful lady really sees things between men and women too clearly!

The wife is not as good as the concubine. The concubine is not as good as the concubine.

That's the essence!

So... what better motivates a man to possess than to steal?

You can't even grab it!

You can't even grab a robbery, that would make a man tasteless and sleep at night!!

Besides, is he a small, young, cheerful little emperor, scared that no one else will know he's smart?

Muse's face is also pale. Although she cannot comprehend all the contents of her sister's speech at once, she has understood deeply since childhood that her sister is extremely intelligent, whether she is a caretaker or a caretaker. Ten words and nine words! Now that she's said all that, it's all true!

After struggling on Muse's pale little face, he finally raised his head and looked at Mrs. Lister. He apologized deeply in tone, but he bit his teeth and shook his head resolutely!

“No, sister, I'm not marrying that Gabriel! ”

“Why, why!” Mrs. Lister's first reaction was to shoot the table.

“I don't like him! I don't want to marry a man I don't like.” Muse resolutely resisted.

Mrs. Lister did not growl at her sister. She looked at her sister's eyebrows firmly, but suddenly felt soft in her heart and suddenly remembered. Years ago, that night, she had tried to resist, like Muse did now, and did not want to marry her later husband...

“Muse, I'm a widow.” Lady Lister suddenly said this with a slight shadow, and the slight weakness in the voice made her familiar with the muse of her sister's strong side, was also a shock to her heart.

“When... when I married your dead brother-in-law, did you think I really loved him?” Lady Lister's smile suddenly carries a slight bitter smile in the corner of her mouth, but she doesn't know how many years of bitterness it took to brew it.

“Many times we women, in this world, have no choice! ”

Muse was determined to look at her sister. Her eyes were also filled with pain. At this moment, though her heart was soft, she thought of marrying that person...

Suddenly, a strong resistance emerged in her heart, sweeping away some of her just softened mind.

“I won't marry him!! ”

With a roar, Muse flushed out the door and quickly walked away.

Mrs. Lister was set to sit there, staring stupidly at the wide open door and letting the cold wind roll in outside.

Wind rolls like a knife!

“What a big whirlpool.” The beautiful woman shook her head gently and smiled bitterly.
