Master Overlord - Chapter 356
“You, you… How could that be!” Jenny’s words made Eugenie’s little face blush to her neck.
“I can’t like such a guy. No, I won’t like anyone! Jenny, don’t laugh, or I won’t chat with you. You asked me to tell you this!” she stressed solemnly and seriously.
Jenny only thought she was a little girl who had been seen through her mind. She was interested in teasing, smiled and joked: “Good girl, don’t be nervous. If you don’t care, your reaction should be calm. Even if you really like this count tustra, it doesn’t matter. Every girl will always have fantasies about heroic teenagers. Don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone, including your brother!”
With a dissatisfied look at Jenny, Eugenie turned and left. This time, she was really angry!
“Eugenie!” on the wall, Jenny hurriedly chased up and took Eugenie’s little hand.
The look in the other party’s eyes when she turned around made her realize that she might really be wrong, and Eugenie didn’t seem to like such jokes.
“I apologize to you,” she said hurriedly. “I’m not good. I shouldn’t joke like this. Good girl, don’t be angry. If you ignore me, I’ll be very sad and helpless. Let’s talk about other things. OK?”
Listening to the apologetic voice behind her, Eugene, with her face, could not help regretting. What are you doing? Jenny is my brother’s wife. It would be very embarrassing for her if I turned around and left like this. If pace knew, it would be very embarrassing.
She turned around and looked at each other with the same guilty eyes: “Jenny, I’m sorry… I, I just don’t like such jokes. I don’t know why. I shouldn’t have turned around and left. I’m sorry.”
She made a rare apology.
“It doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter!” Jenny was greatly moved and immediately came forward to hold her in her arms. She regretted her nonsense just now and felt that Eugenie was really a beautiful and kind girl.
“Let’s talk about something else.” Jenny thought quickly and was eager to change the topic. “Tell me the story you told me the day before yesterday, that is, the monkey was pressed by the gods at the foot of Wuzhi Mountain. What’s going on behind? I’m very interested!”
Eugenie raised her head and looked at Jenny, with a touch of bitterness in her tone: “this story was also thought up by the count of tustra.”
“Er…” Jenny was embarrassed, but immediately said, “then tell me other stories, Kuafu chasing the sun, Hou Yi shooting the sun, Jingwei filling the sea… These stories are really interesting. They are better than knight novels and hero biographies. I’ve never heard of them in the West. Are they unique to the north? Tell me something else.”
“Jenny… These were all the ideas of count tustra.” seeing that Jenny had to continue to change the topic, Eugenie quickly said, “it doesn’t matter. Let’s talk about him. Aren’t you curious? It’s estimated that we will have to hear about him in the future.”
“But what are we talking about?”
Eugenie thought for a moment and said, “pace once said that if it wasn’t for the family’s responsibility, he wanted to be the other party’s escort, protect his safety and protect his glory. Of course, this is a secret. I was the only one who knew it before, and now you have to be added. So don’t despise the other party, otherwise it may affect your feelings.”
Jenny was shocked again and said in disbelief: “pace used to be a golden guard… Arthur tustra is not as old as him… His status is only a lord in the north. Although he is young and promising, this… Is incredible.”
Eugenie couldn’t help thinking of the oath sword again and seriously said to Jenny: “the king is because he is the king, and Arthur tustra is because he is Arthur tustra!”
“Eugenie, this, this is too exaggerated… Too exaggerated!” Jenny was a little confused and didn’t know how to deal with it for a moment. “Count tustra, no matter how great, is just an count. I know you want to tell me pace’s admiration for him, but… But why do you say this?” Eugenie’s description made her feel a little uneasy.
Looking at the confused Jenny, Eugenie immediately regretted that she was disturbed by her emotions and spoke too directly.
“Hee hee, how are you? Are you scared?” she quickly showed a big smile. “This is revenge for you laughing at me just now. Now we’re even!”
“You… You’re deliberately scaring me?” Jenny’s hanging heart suddenly didn’t know how to calm down.
She was really scared just now. Eugenie’s serious expression made her think she was hiding some amazing secret.
“Eugenie!” she said with a trace of anger on her white face. “You’re so naughty. No wonder pace calls you” troublemaker “. I’ve learned it. I’ll call you that in the future – troublemaker Eugenie!”
“Thank you for your compliment!” Eugenie pulled her skirt and gave her a little aristocratic etiquette. Seeing this, Jenny immediately grabbed her and wanted to spank her and teach her a good lesson.
……
At night, in the bedroom.
After some lingering, Jenny curled in pace’s arms, held one of his arms, talked about chatting with Eugenie during the day, and told pace about Eugenie for the first time, saying that she was really a troublemaker who people love and hate.
Pace laughed and didn’t mean to defend his wife. Instead, he comforted: “this is her true face. After you’ve been together for a long time, there will be more such things!”
Jenny patted her arm in her arms and said, “I know this is a sign of Eugenie’s closeness to me. She is very polite when she gets along with her servants.”
Pace smiled happily. It’s a great thing that a wife can get along well with her sister and be as close as sisters.
“But she didn’t scare you,” said pace, moving and lying flat, hugging Jenny in his arms and looking at the dark stone beam roof. “Lord Arthur is indeed a great man. Maybe one day, he can really change something in this kingdom.”
“You really admire him.” Jenny looked at his cheek and said softly, “but our father hated the count who led the river, and his father agreed to the battle of the Barrett family. Now, although peace talks are needed, Eugenie said that the war will not end like this, and the Barrett family has suffered heavy losses.”
“The war had better end like this. I mean, the Barrett family had better. This is their chance.”
Looking sideways at his puzzled wife, pace kissed her forehead, smiled and said easily, “I have always paid attention to the war in the north, and there will be news from my father every day. At the beginning, I was really worried, but you know, Lord Arthur led a cavalry team of less than 100 people and killed nearly a thousand Knights of the Barrett family!”
“This is not a serf, but a fully armed Knight! The current peace talks are actually the helpless choice of the Barrett family. So they’d better not have any bad ideas. In addition, his father actually only tacitly agreed to the Barrett family to send troops, and before that, he accepted the loyalty of the new count of the campes family.”
Hearing the speech, Jenny couldn’t help feeling a little confused. She is not good at thinking about these things. When she was in the west, her father would not talk about political affairs with her, and she was not interested in it. She learned a lot about the kingdom from her noble ladies and wives.
“Is father dissatisfied with the Barrett family?” she asked.
Pace nodded, thought of some words his father had said to him, and solemnly explained: “over the years, the Barrett family has cultivated many knights with gold coins from iron mines, including the Knoxville family. In addition, they have secretly supported several mercenary regiments, with at least hundreds of riders, and one of them may have chased me.”
“It’s very responsible and involves the situation of the Kingdom, as well as our marriage. In short, my father seems to just want to suppress the Barrett family and teach Lord Arthur a lesson. However, the situation exceeded expectations. The Barrett family suffered heavy losses, and the Marquis Ted Barrett and his vassals may not give up.”
