Commander Pavel sapega is very upset these days. He is not interested in attending his favorite dance.


    What bothered him, of course, was the growing contradiction between his three capable generals.


    The cause of the matter is very simple. Anjie kemitz took in a familiar foreign mercenary officer of the former Prince''s army. This kind of thing is very common. Most of the generals under commander sapega once worked under yanush, and it is human to have some friendship with yanush''s foreign mercenary officers. After the defeat of yanush, sapega even hinted that his officers would make more use of this personal relationship to bring in those foreign mercenary officers to serve the Republic.


    But the foreign officer is a little special.


    He had a lot of grudges with colonel Jerzy haretsky. Of course, Jerzy halletz would not admit that he was selfish in targeting the foreign mercenary officer everywhere. He firmly grasped one point, that is, the foreign mercenary officer was once canonized as a knight by yanush and was yanush''s family minister. According to the decree of the grand commander, yanush''s family officials were not pardoned. The officer should be put in prison like longzinsky and others.


    Both Anjie and mihau spoke well for the foreign mercenary officer. They showed evidence that the officer had resigned from his post in the yanushi army before the defeat of yanushi. He was a free man. At the same time, during his departure, he also participated in the siege of Daguangming mountain in chenstohova and was a hero (of course, this remains to be verified). They believed that the commander should not detain him, but should reward and entrust him with important tasks.


    Originally, sapega was prepared to wait until he confirmed his achievements in chenstohova. Unexpectedly, seeing his delay in sentencing, halletsky ordered his subordinates to sue the mercenary for intentional injury.


    This is not only a big lie in sliding the world, but also greatly intensifies the contradiction between the two sides. On one occasion, Anjie''s men even fought with Jerzy haretsky''s men in the street.


    Seeing the growing contradictions, other officers under commander sapesh also began to stand in line according to their likes and dislikes and close relations.


    If this goes on, I''m afraid the Allied forces will split up.


    "This damn mercenary!"


    Sapega scolded. He rubbed his temples and collapsed on the sofa.


    Mihau and Anjie hoped that they would pardon the mercenary, so that with their own asylum, the court would have no reason to sentence him. But Jerzy halletsky threatened that once he pardoned the mercenary, he would take his troops to Lvov.


    Sapega knew that no matter what he did, the Allied forces would be divided at that time.


    "My Lord, Princess Catherine has come to visit you."


    Just then, the housekeeper came in and reported that Princess garisade had come.


    "Please!"


    It was said that Princess garisade was coming. Sapega quickly put her troubles behind her. He stood up, cleaned his clothes, wiped his face with hot water, and stood at the door like a gentleman.


    Princess Catherine came in alone. The place where commander sapega now lives is the castle of the razeviu family in Werner. Princess garisade is familiar with it.


    Today''s princess is wearing a dark blue dress. She is slightly powdered and shows kindness in her solemnity.


    "My royal highness, Princess garisade, your arrival really brightens my life here," sapega said politely.


    Princess garisade smiled. She stretched out a hand in lace gloves and put it on sapega''s arm. They went into the small living room and sat down.


    "Commander, you are shining here, but I have been covered with dust for many days." Princess garisade said hypocritically and plaintively. She said and looked at sapega''s expression.


    "How could this happen?" sapega said in surprise. He remembered that the princess''s banquet was always full of traffic and guests.


    "Because there was one missing person at my party," Princess garisade pointed out.


    Sapega was not a fool. He soon understood what the princess meant. It seems that Princess jialiseide came to "ask for punishment" because she didn''t go to the ball these days.


    "I''m sorry, I''m sorry. Something really bothered me these days." sapega apologized to the princess.


    "Oh, is it about the mercenary named Chechen?" Princess galisade took out a folding fan and covered her mouth.


    "Princess, do you know about it?" sapega asked.


    "This matter is making a lot of noise, how can I not know? Some people with ulterior motives say that the civil war in Lithuania will break out again," said Princess galisade.


    "Alas," sapega sighed.


    "It''s really hard to do. Of course, I know that halletsky wants to avenge himself, and the truth is on the mercenary''s side. As Anjie and mihau said, the mercenary left yanush as early as after the war of lidarburg, so he should not be regarded as treason. Moreover, it is said that this man has also worked hard to defend Daguangming Mountain Monastery and brought A group of rebels took refuge in me. But the justices of the court were completely unaware of the overall situation. They accepted the prosecution of kolpola, a subordinate of haretsky, to try the mercenary. "


    "Then why don''t you pardon him, put him under your protection and take the mercenary named Chechen. I know you have this power?" asked Princess galisade.


    "Halletsky, the damned fellow, threatened that if I pardoned the mercenary, he would leave me and work for lubaumatsky," sapega said bitterly.


    It''s hard to do the work of middle balance. Sapega is deeply touched now.


    After listening to sapega''s complaint, Princess garisade laughed. In her opinion, sapega''s distress is not a thing at all. It''s just that his mind is not good, and he has thought of a way for him.


    "If I can solve this trouble for the commander, how can you thank me?"


    After laughing, Princess garisade told sapega that she had a way.


    "Really? Princess, do you have a way?"


    It was said that Princess garisade had a way to solve this problem. Sapega was surprised. He was a little incredible.


    "Of course it''s true. It''s not difficult. As long as the commander expels the mercenary before the court''s judgment, the justices of the court can''t convict the mercenary without the defendant," said Princess galisade.


    "But in this way, mihau and Anjie will not be satisfied." sapega still grimaced after hearing this.


    "I thought of that for you, too," said Princess garisade


    "At that time, the commander-in-chief will play a play with me. First, you pretend to sentence the mercenary to death, and then mihau and they will plead for mercy. Just pretend to be embarrassed, and I''ll pretend to advise you next, and then you change the sentence of exile to that mercenary. In this way, from death to exile, the punishment is light, and you will give mihau and Anjie face." Believe it, they won''t blame you for favoring Colonel harlecky, "said Princess galisade.


    Sapega nodded. It was really a good idea.


    "Then, princess, how do you want me to thank you?" sapesh asked bluntly how to repay the princess''s help after the matter was completed.


    "I just want my Lord to come to my ball tonight," said Princess garisade with a smile.
