Reborn Ancient Western Europe

"What's the matter with your voice?" Dismissing Amelia, Gray poured a cup of rose tea and pushed it to Emil, no, it should be Angel.

Halfway through the barbecue, Grace left in a hurry.He seemed very worried about keeping Angel here.But Angel was astonishingly imposing, with a high-octave voice, she sat beside the grill and didn't move.Grace had no choice but to leave alone.

Angel twirled the ivory fracture fan in her hand, and she was lazily nestled on the sofa, looking full of food and drink.

"That, I learned from a circus clown, he can imitate everyone's voice. I learned from him for a few days, only learned how to sharpen the voice. He told me, this is used to toss people's ears Very useful." Angel raised her eyebrows, and said coldly: "Even if I can't really kill that guy with a fan, I will never let him feel better."

As she spoke, she swiped the end of the fan fiercely across the table, and Gray watched helplessly as a deep scratch immediately appeared on the table.

"Let me introduce myself again." Angel pulled the hem of her skirt, still lazily nestled on the sofa, and said, "I am the new princess named by Van Nus, and at the same time, I am also the first heir of the Van Nus Kingdom. The name Emil was chosen later, so you just call me Angel."

Gray frowned, as for Angel's identity, he had guessed about the same just now.

"What are you doing in Santa Lua?" he asked.

An Qier bit her folding fan with a look of bitterness and hatred on her face.

"It's not the fault of that damn guy Grace!"

Angel did not come here voluntarily. Her current status, at best, is a guest of the empire, but to put it bluntly, she is actually a hostage.

"You have been locked up here, so you don't know." Angel explained: "The relationship between the imperial capital and Van Nuss is very tense now, and it is basically on the verge of declaring war. Originally, the imperial capital always has a group of people who are full of food." The nobles wanted to annex Vanners. But this time, that guy, Grace, made a dangerous move and gave them an excellent excuse."

Gray picked up the teacup and asked lightly: "Sea Eagle?"

Angel nodded, then shook her head again.

"It's more than that. Do you know where Grace and his group went that day, the day you followed me to the underground cave?"

Gray was stunned, and asked, "Didn't they go to your boat? The people in the camp said that they were invited by your envoy."

Angel snorted coldly, and said, "Van Nus's ship was hijacked on the way to the Coral Sea. It's actually us, Van Nus himself, who did this kind of thing!"

Just like the empire's love-hate attitude toward Van Nus, there are also different voices within Van Nus.Some people think that Vanners possesses many materials coveted by the empire, so while developing the economy, it is necessary to pay attention to military defenses to prevent the empire from invading.

On the other hand, some people think that compared with the powerful empire, Van Nus has no chance of winning at all.It is better to take the initiative to belong to the empire, so that it can still occupy a certain initiative in the negotiation.

"Grace obviously has the support of the latter type of nobles. They believe that if he, who has the blood of the Vanners royal family, succeeds to the throne, their interests will be guaranteed to the maximum extent. Therefore, for Her Majesty the Queen's sudden decision to modify the first heir They are very dissatisfied with the matter." Angel said, and began to spin the fan in her hand again, "so in fact, although they boarded Van Nus's ship that day, it was already under Grace's control."

"That lunatic directed and acted on his own, and made his group abducted for no reason as soon as they boarded Van Nus's ship. Coupled with the sinking of the Shanghai Eagle, Van Nus can't explain it at all." Angel said with a straight face. Said: "That guy is deliberately trying to provoke a war between the two countries! He is simply a lunatic!"

Gray lowered his eyes, thought for a while, and asked, "Princess Heina is also involved?"

Angel shook her head, "It's hard to say, but it's very possible. In the end, it was Princess Heina's uncle, the fleet of the Lord of Santalua, who rescued their group. And the only ones who were rescued were Prince Grace and Princess Heina, and a few other insignificant people. He reported to the Empire that the ship had fled back to Vanners. But in fact, we did see the ship, but only a few hired halfway sailors."

Although the Kingdom of Vanners knew that it was wronged in such a matter, the imperial capital, especially the group of nobles who had always supported the annexation of Vanners, would not let go of this heaven-sent opportunity.

The direction of public opinion was very unfavorable to Van Nuss. Forced to do so, the newly appointed Princess Angel could only go to the empire and accompany Prince Grace to the imperial capital to give them a reasonable explanation.

Gray was stunned, and immediately asked: "What about Beth? Has she been rescued?"

"Beth?" Angel frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly realized: "You mean the lord of Deimos? The baroness who married a commoner?"

Gray nodded.

Angel shook her head and said, "She's not on the rescue list. But it stands to reason that Grace shouldn't ignore her for such an important person."

They looked at each other, and both of them realized something at the same time.

"I will send someone to find her immediately, she must know something, Prince Grace can't bring her back." She said, frowning "It's just that it's hard to be sure if she's still alive .”

Gray thought for a while and said, "She has a caravan traveling between Vanners and the Empire, you can try to find it there."

Angel nodded, stood up from the sofa, opened the folding fan in her hand, removed an ivory fan bone from it, and handed it to Gray.

"Hide it close to your body. Although it looks inconspicuous, if you find it in the right place, it can really kill people."

Gray looked at the white fan bone in his hand, its tip was sharpened.In the center of the fan bone, there is a mechanism that can eject a thin metal blade that is shining with cold light.

It reminded Gray of Angus' dagger.The smelting level of the Vanners Kingdom clearly surpassed that of the Imperial Capital by a large margin.

"An Qier." Gray held the fan bone and said lightly: "If you have a chance, you should go back to Vanners. The imperial capital is more difficult to deal with than you imagined."

"Didn't you hear what I said just now?" Angel suddenly became serious, she looked at Gray and said, "I am the first heir of Van Nuss, so this is a matter between me and him. Since He has already dared to intervene in Van Nuss' affairs, how could I back down!"

Gray was stunned for a moment, watching the back of her walking away with her back straightened.Suddenly, I felt that Prince Grace even had royal blood flowing through his body.But it did not inherit a certain persistence in the bones of that country.

He smiled, picked up the cup and took a sip, but his thoughts drifted in another direction.

There was one thing, even if Angel didn't tell him, he still knew a little bit.Over the past few years, the imperial capital has become more and more vigilant against Van Nuss, and customs duties have also risen repeatedly.Inside Van Nus, there has long been dissatisfaction with this.

Whether it was intentional or unintentional, Queen Vanners began to reform the kingdom's bureaucracy during this period, appointing a group of young officials who were born as civilians.This part of the people's attitude towards the empire is the most radical main combat faction, trying to use force to get rid of the control of the empire.

The war may not be wishful thinking on the part of the empire.Grace lit a fire in the imperial capital, but who can be sure whether Queen Vanus is also lighting such a fire?

Holding the rose tea that had cooled down, Gray sighed slightly.

Beth, no matter what, you must not die so easily...
