Chapter 670

Husband?

Although she noticed it the moment count angert spoke, Charlotte trembled when Aton really said it.

"Do you... All adults think so?"

The frost faced Charlotte had to bite her lower lip so that she wouldn't lose her manners. The stunned pupils gradually became as cold as frost and swept one by one from the faces of each Knight Lord.

There was a strange silence in the hall.

None of the Earls sitting around the round table objected, surprised, or even made a noise.

"This should have been!"

The count of angert snorted coldly, broke the silence for a moment, and looked at Charlotte without concealment: "to make Byrne strong again, the first thing is to strengthen the Daling family and continue the blood of the knight king!"

"Only when the Turin family's heritage is strong enough, can Byrne have enough confidence and challenge the sky palace in the north, the dwarfs in the South and the hybrids in the green sea! It would be even more important if he could have an heir as soon as possible..."

"Lord guy angert --!"

If the count of fury castle of thunder forcibly interrupted the old man's words, his sharp eyes looked at him without flinching: "you... Too much!"

"Bang --!"

The count of angert, whose words were blocked in his mouth, suddenly turned back and glared angrily. His right hand with wrist guard smashed a hole directly on the table.

Under the tense eyes of the knight lords, the two men looked at each other for ten seconds before the old man sat back on his seat with a cold hum.

"Uncle Eckert..."

The flustered Charlotte even looked at the count of angry castle in a low voice: "don't you think I'm qualified to go..."

"No, it's not what you think." the count of fury castle, sitting on the countess's left hand, looked at her gently, and his calm and gentle voice was completely different from that just now:

"Your performance today has greatly exceeded all our expectations. Even count angert can be restrained by you. No one here will doubt your wrist."

"Hum --!" the old man who heard this turned his head directly.

With a sigh, count Eckert raised the letter in his right hand: "without this thing, we would not have made such a request, at least not in this way of coercion; but now the situation is... We have no choice."

The countess bit her lower lip like frost.

"If we are negotiating with the Empire, we all believe that your skill will win dignity for Byrne and the Turin family; but war... That's another matter."

"Even if the war can be delayed for another three or five years, when your position in the sky palace and Bain is gradually consolidated, everything is not negotiable, but... As I just said, we have no choice at the moment."

"To send troops to the green sea to rescue the Principality of Boye, there can be no other than Duke Bain." that is to say, in your eyes, as the direct blood of Turin family and the count of red blood castle, I am not qualified to lead the Knights of Bain and lead the expedition like the ancestors of previous generations, right? "

Charlotte's sword eyebrows stood up, and the heavy atmosphere made her regain her original dignity: "that's why you said... I need a husband?!"

"If you have to ask so directly... Yes."

The opening was still count Eckert, looking at Charlotte with a solemn expression: "yes, you are the descendant of the knight king, but you don't have any experience in fighting with the enemy, let alone on the battlefield!"

"It may be your strong point to compromise in the court; but I said... The battlefield is another matter! We can't afford to let a woman who has never fought command Bain's Knight, and Bain and Turin can't afford this risk!"

"Byrne may not have such a precedent, but there is a queen who once saved the whole empire and won the eighth war of demon invasion!" Charlotte still refused to give up and strongly gritted her teeth to retort.

"Now that you know the war, you should remember who helped the great 'Dragon Queen' clean up the mess and was shamefully stigmatized as a traitor after death!"

The count of angert roughly interrupted her, and the roar sounded like thunder in the countess's ear: "isn't this lesson not deep enough, and will the tragedy of the black Duke be staged again?"

Charlotte trembled, and the deafening sound and the oppression of the old man made her pale.

"Charlotte Turin, we are not your enemies, and we are also thinking of Turin." the count of Eckert said coldly, raised his hand to stop the old man who still wanted to continue, and looked at the countess with sincere eyes:

"Don't be angry with us and don't let us have no choice, okay?"

Looking at her eyes, Charlotte frowned and clenched her teeth.

Count Eckert was right. He couldn't let them have no choice.

And his choice is already obvious - he chose to compromise in front of the heavenly palace. If Boye's request for help is ignored again, the whole Bain will be completely disappointed with the Turin family, and all previous efforts will be wasted;

If you want to send troops, you must have a husband... This is the exchange condition of the round table Council and the twelve Knight Lords.

Relying on the careful planning of Loren Turin and the resolution of the sudden challenge of count angert, they lost their reason to threaten themselves; Now, Boye's letter of help gives them a second chance.

Because... Byrne's knights won't be convinced to let a woman lead the army.

Because... I'm a woman.

What an impeccable reason.

Storm castle, Rock Castle, anger castle... These earls all over Bain may really be out of fear, or have evil intentions, or be ambitious. They all have the ultimate goal.

That is to clamp down... And even control the Turin family.

For three generations, Byrne's territories, which had lost the Duke's control, were in a semi independent state; They... Are not who they were.

Even if Loren had not told her directly, the countess herself was aware of something secretly planned by some of the twelve Lords.

The highly respected Trish Eckert, the grumpy guy angert, the Aton glenwell who wants to propose to himself... And all the Earls who are worried about the future are the pawns used by this man.

Charlotte's heart was cold.

What should I do... What can I do to make them lose their reason to threaten themselves, and make some bastard hiding among these people stunned and speechless?

"... this is not a meeting, this is a war, a fight, a duel..."

Charlotte trembled slightly. In a trance, she seemed to stand the shadow of another person in front of her eyes; My heart beats faster and faster and my breathing is getting faster and faster.

"... you should try your best to sell the people you trust by any means, even at the critical moment..."

Her trembling hands rested on the table, her fingers crossed, so hard that her joints turned white.

"... of course, the price will be heavy..."

The countess took a deep breath and slowly looked up.

"... but if necessary and appropriate, don't hesitate..."

With her chest up, Charlotte sat up straight, but her eyes suddenly became much lighter on her solemn face, and even showed a smile.

"Gentlemen, thank you for your generous statements and advice. You let me see my shortcomings."

Charlotte was very calm, but her soft voice was clearly audible to everyone present: "for this, I want to thank you, the Turin family and the whole Bain want to thank you."

"But..." she said:

"I am not ready to accept your proposal; on the contrary, I want to make another proposal to you, one that can meet all your requirements!"

At this moment, the Earls present looked at each other with different expressions.
