"Eugenie, Eugenie! My baby, are you in the study?"


    Her father''s voice came from the spiral staircase of the tower. Eugenie quickly answered and got up and walked to the door of the study.


    "Oh, my dear daughter!" the Duke happily hugged his daughter in his arms, stroking her hair and complaining, "Hey, I''m really tired. Those vassals are as noisy as mosquitoes. Damn it, I didn''t invite them to complain!"


    Holding her father''s arm, Eugenie led the Duke into the study and placed him in her previous window seat.


    As she pinched her father''s shoulder, she comforted: "as I said, you shouldn''t meet them one by one. Just say something and let the Bachelor in the castle deal with it. Anyway, they will go to the river to get it."


    "Hey, that''s not good," said the Duke slowly, with his eyes closed and enjoying the bitterness of his shoulders. "After all, they came with gifts. Although the topics are related to Shanghe collar and Cumbria collar, they are not all complaints. As a Duke of the north, I have to listen to them."


    Speaking of the gift, the Duke suddenly turned and asked, "by the way, where''s pace? There was no figure after he brought it back from the river. Where did he go?"


    "Don''t worry, he didn''t go to war this time!" Eugenie said with a smile. "We didn''t bring back a group of farmers who went up the river. Pace is leading them to clean up the dung in the city, um... Fight with the dung!"


    "Clean up the excrement!" the Duke suddenly raised his voice with dissatisfaction. If it hadn''t been for his daughter''s reminding, he would have forgotten about it.


    "What a fool! What is he doing! The people of the farit family will arrive soon. Now the city is full of nobles everywhere, but he is busy with feces. Does he want to be the laughing stock of everyone!"


    "No, my brother is just supervising to prevent people from being lazy." Eugenie quickly explained, "In fact, it''s not really to clean up the excrement, but to plan a set of methods to clean up and transport the excrement. Pace should implement a new farming method in the farm now. Father, we clean up the city to prepare for the wedding, otherwise those guys in the West will have to look up at people."


    Hearing the speech, the Duke thought for a while, and his anger dissipated. He said, "I expected Wang Du and his experience in recent years to make him grow up. At least I should understand his responsibility, but it''s still the same. Now he''s bad for the boy of Lingfeng castle, and what''s the use of doing manure farming!" the Duke sighed, took his daughter''s hand and said, "If only pace were half as smart as you..."


    For nearly a month, the Duke of kewilt had been busy with the marriage.


    This wedding is of great significance. At that time, in addition to the farit family, many Western nobles will come to watch the ceremony. Together with the accompanying knights and free riders, the number is estimated to be 400 or 500, and a knight competition will be held.


    "Father," Eugenie said, "in fact, the count Arthur tustra is not what the nobles think. Although he is indeed bold, he is also a man of great wisdom and methods. It is no luck that he can defeat the Green family one after another."


    "Hum! Of course he''s not ''a little bold''. Look at what he''s done. It''s just mixing with milt campes. He''s still promoting the river collar in Cumbria. The nobles want to kill him!"


    After a pause, the Duke flashed a thought in his eyes and then said, "but now it''s no different. They humiliated the Barrett family. Now the Marquis Ted Barrett has gathered tens of thousands of troops. It''s estimated that their death will come in a few months."


    With tens of thousands of troops, Eugenie frowned and asked, "father, what if he didn''t die and defeated the Barrett family?"


    I don''t know why, Eugenie just feels like this.


    "Baby, why do you think so?" the Duke turned and looked at his daughter in surprise, "In the current situation, even if the Barrett family did their best, they must win the war, otherwise the Barrett family would have no honor. In addition, Ted Barrett immediately summoned thousands of knights and tens of thousands of troops, not just to teach two arrogant children a lesson. He was showing off his force. It would be more embarrassing to lose the war than to kill him."


    "That''s how I feel!" Eugenie said as she continued to hold her father''s shoulder. "Didn''t Lingfeng castle''s statement come from Xuecheng this morning? Look at the wording, it''s a warning to the Marquis Ted Barrett. In addition, he has also got a large number of slaves in the East, and he may not be able to fight with the army of the Barrett family."


    The Duke laughed at the speech, pulled Eugenie in front of him and taught him, "only biting dogs bark, and bloodthirsty wolves always sneak silently. In addition, those slaves migrated for a long time, and before they could wait for the battlefield, they were as good as vegetables. It was a problem whether they could hold on to weapons. Eugenie, war can not be won by many people!"


    "I know!" Eugenie said in shame. Looking at her father, she thought for a moment and solemnly reminded her: "father, in short, you must not despise him. The nobles only regard him as a bold boy and don''t look down on the tutela family, but he is really a very dangerous man and won''t be defeated easily!"


    Looking at his serious baby daughter, Duke kewilt couldn''t help being a little surprised.


    "You didn''t think so before. It seems that this trip to the river has changed your view. Well, tell me how Arthur tustra is dangerous. I don''t think he can defeat the army of the Barrett family."


    Eugenie frowned and thought. She remembered the scene of flourishing in Shanghe Town, the discipline of the first army different from other places, Arthur''s speech and behavior more like a bachelor than a knight, and the sword of oath


    Seeing that his baby daughter hadn''t spoken for a long time, the Duke smiled and joked, "Eugenie, that boy won''t say any sweet words to you?"


    Eugene looked back, blushed and said angrily, "no! Father, you really hate it!"


    After that, she suddenly remembered the code compiled by Arthur''s scholars and said, "he''s a little strange. He''s different from the nobles in the kingdom. I don''t know. I feel that he doesn''t want to defeat anyone, but wants to change something."


    Not to defeat anyone, but to change something. Hearing the speech, the Duke frowned slightly and looked more serious.


    "Interesting. You rarely judge people like that. So, in his eyes, no one is his opponent?"


    "I don''t know, but that''s how I feel." Eugenie frowned and remembered a conversation with Arthur.


    "Father, you know what? His idea is different from everyone, but it is inexplicably convincing. My brother admired him because of this. Once I talked to him about the code compiled by the scholars. He said he believed that ''justice'' existed and his code was to pursue justice..."


    "Justice?" the Duke interrupted, with a trace of pride on his face. "Of course justice exists, power is justice!"


    "No, he believes that justice exists objectively!"


    "Ha, what a child!" sneered the Duke. "It seems that he inherited the title too early and lacked some necessary teaching. If justice really exists, you should let him show it to you!"


    Eugenie pursed her mouth and whispered, "that''s what I told him..."


    "Oh, how did he get back to you?"


    "He said that you don''t need to believe what you can see, and you only need to believe what you can''t see. I don''t know how to refute him."


    Hearing the speech, the Duke frowned in an instant. After thinking for a while, he said discontentedly, "it''s ridiculous! Did those bachelors tell him?"


    "The scholars didn''t believe it either. Also, later I asked him how he looked at the current Kingdom and court. Guess what he said?"


    "There will certainly be no good words. After all, those guys in the court have always coveted his iron mine."


    Eugenie quickly shook her head and showed a trace of cunning in her eyes: "father, I said he didn''t want to defeat anyone. Besides, even if he wanted to kill the people in the court, he wouldn''t say it to me."


    "Well, it won''t be a good evaluation anyway. Let alone the court, it''s our Fengxi castle. It''s estimated that he is also dissatisfied. After all, there are my reasons for the past situation of Shanghe collar."


    "It''s not." Eugenie smiled a little and showed off her tone. "He said that the country is shared by all people. It''s naturally good to be dominated by people with talent and virtue. It''s bad if it''s run by fools and villains."


    With that, Eugenie asked proudly, "what''s up, isn''t it good? It''s refreshing!"


    "Absurd!" the Duke snapped discontentedly. Looking at her baby daughter and remembering the look on her face just now, she asked strangely, "my baby daughter, you can''t look at that boy with new eyes. They don''t deserve the tustra family!"
