[Pride and Prejudice] Red and Black Queen

"George." Joe looked at his younger brother in surprise.

George strode forward, arms outstretched, and stooped as if to give her a hug.

As if Darcy's legs had a will of their own, he stepped forward and blocked George.

"Ok?"

George narrowed his eyes. "Does Mr. Darcy want to say something to me?"

Darcy tried to keep his face sullen.

Joe stuck out his head behind Darcy, and said with a smile, "Mr. Fitzwilliam has something to discuss with you."

Darcy looked puzzled.

who?I?say what?

Joe blinked, "Is what you just said a joke?"

Mr. Darcy suddenly remembered.

He looked at George seriously, "Yes, I have something to ask you."

George waved his hand, "Oh, I'm not that easy to see either."

System: [So cheap. 】

Mr. Darcy was silent for a while.

Joe couldn't help saying, "George!"

George smiled brightly, "Sister, you know, I was just joking with Mr. Darcy."

Darcy could not believe it was his joke.

George blinked deliberately like Joe, "Mr. Darcy, right? I'm joking with you, nothing else."

Darcy gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "Yes."

"It turns out that this is the younger brother of Bishop Wickham, and he is indeed a man of talent." Elijah praised.

George bowed, "Mr. Bennett has a good vision."

Darcy was speechless.

He must be blind.

Elijah noticed Darcy's haughty and cold face when he looked at George, and couldn't help frowning.

"You achieved the position of general at such a young age..."

"General!" Mrs. Bennet exclaimed, looking like she was about to faint, "beautiful general, have you ever married?"

George laughed and said, "Of course not. I haven't met a girl I like more than my sister."

Darcy glared at George, who was still smiling.

At this time, Lydia had finished whispering to her mother about George's identity, and it was estimated that he was hiding something, so that Mrs. Bennet admired George's gaze very much.

"Mr. Wickham, you must come to our ball. We have a lot of beautiful girls here. Mr. Darcy and Mr. Bingley come here especially."

George covered his mouth and smiled, "It turns out that's why Mr. Darcy came here."

Darcy: "Why did you come here?"

Darcy looked at him, "Didn't you go to war? Why did you appear here after you came back? There is a militia camp not far from here, don't you..."

George put on a bitter face and spread his hands, "Oh, there's no way, I offended the nobles in the army, so they drove me here."

Darcy didn't believe a word of what George said, but the people present seemed to be moved by George's pretending to be pitiful, and couldn't help comforting him gently.

Darcy looked at Joe.

Joe stared at George with envious tenderness.

Darcy took a deep breath and calmed down, "Mr. Wickham, please come out, I have something to ask you."

After Darcy and George went out, Mrs. Bennet turned her attention to Joe, as if she wanted to match Joe and Jan Bennet.

Upon hearing this, the faces of the Bennett brothers present turned pale.

"Mother!" Lydia shouted, "You only think about your brother, why don't you think about me more?"

Kailin whispered: "Actually, I also..."

"Mother, stop talking." Elijah looked ashamed.

Mrs. Bennet exclaimed: "Don't you also..."

Elijah really loves the bishop of Wickham who saved him, but he doesn't want his mother to say it in public.

Yang said helplessly, "Mother, don't worry about this matter."

"Yes, yes, Bishop Wickham is not necessarily a bishop who can marry." Mark added timidly.

Joe smiled and said, "Thank you Mrs. Bennett for your kindness, but I once swore not to marry and to serve God all my life."

Mrs. Bennet was stunned, "Ah, there are some women who don't marry..."

Elijah hurriedly coaxed his mother away to prevent her from uttering more rude words.

……

Here Joe sees Darcy's hesitant look through George's eyes.

George leaned against the tree trunk in the garden and said with a smile: "Why is Mr. Darcy hesitating? This is not like Mr. Darcy."

Darcy said with a straight face: "You should ask yourself what good things you have done."

"How does Mr. Darcy know that I have done a good deed? I like doing good deeds best."

Darcy: "... that's enough! Mr. Wickham, why are you here? I received a letter from Lieutenant Colonel Fitzwilliam, who said that you have made great contributions. Hurry to the country militia camp?"

He said with a serious expression, "What the hell did you do?"

Seeing that George still refused to speak, Mr. Darcy sighed and said, "I don't want Miss Wickham to bother about your affairs. You'd better speak up now, and I can help you."

George's eyes lit up instantly, "Haha, I'm just waiting for your words, thank you, Mr. Darcy."

Mr. Darcy: "..."

George scratched his cheek, "Actually, I didn't do anything. I just went to see His Majesty the King drunk. It seemed that I did something rude, but I was so drunk that I didn't remember it at all."

Mr. Darcy simply fainted with rage.

"Mr. Wickham, you...you..."

He didn't know how to accuse this unreliable and unscrupulous Mr. Wickham.

George: "So, Mr. Darcy, how can you help me? I really can't stay in this small place for a day."

Mr. Darcy pressed the bridge of his nose, "I see, I will ask others to intercede for you."

"One more thing, Miss Wickham told me that you once made an appointment with her to let her put you in the most important position in her heart, I think..."

"Oh... oh... oh!" George made a strange noise.

He blinked at Darcy, "I see, it turns out that Mr. Darcy wants the most important position in my sister's heart."

"Hey, such an important position is not easy to get."

"Sir, you understand." George waved to Mr. Darcy.

Darcy gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Wickham, you can put a price on everything here, can't you?"

George folded his arms and said with a smile: "Who told me to mark the price so that the bully would be willing to pay?"

The bully Darcy: "..."

Good guy, he has figured it out, right?

Darcy took a deep breath so that he would not be directly pissed off.

Darcy said angrily: "What exactly do you want, just say it."

George smiled, "It's hard to say, after all, I want too much."

Mr. Darcy pinched the bridge of his nose tightly, and his brows were almost wrinkled into a red line.

George looked at Darcy, and said slowly: "Actually, you are not the best candidate for my sister's admirer in my mind. After all, although Mr. Darcy is one of the best landlords in the country, he does not have a title, but there is no way, you give I have too many, and I will speak well of you in front of my sister."

Mr. Darcy: "No, you mind yourself."

George patted for fear of the dust on his clothes, "You have to bring me back to the capital quickly, the food here is terrible."

Darcy: "If that's what you asked for, I get it."

He stared at George and said, "Also, don't bother Miss Wickham with these troublesome things."

George saluted him with a smile, "Yes, but Mr. Darcy will have to pay for that."

Darcy was so angry that he turned around and wanted to leave.

"Well, Mr. Darcy, there is one thing I forgot to say."

Darcy stopped.

George: "His Majesty the King wants Bishop Joe Wickham to return to the capital immediately, because they have received news about the devil. His Majesty the King is very concerned about the authenticity of this news, and wants my sister to return to the capital as soon as possible."

Darcy said angrily: "Why did you say it now!"

George shrugged and said, "Oh, it's been so long, I almost forgot about it."

How nice people can be mad at George.

Darcy: "How long have you been on the road?"

George: "I don't remember clearly, anyway, I have notified you, and I will leave the rest to you, Mr. Darcy."

Darcy: "You..."

George smiled and said, "I think, even for my sister's sake, you should take over all these jobs, right?"

Mr. Darcy's weakness was caught by him to death.

He still couldn't help but said, "I see, Mr. Wickham, at least you have to change your manner."

George responded with a smile, and it could be seen that he didn't take Darcy's reminder to heart at all.

Mr. Darcy returned in a bad mood, and told Jo the news in a mild manner.

Although Joe had already learned about these things from George, he still pretended to be ignorant.

When he returned to Sourfield Manor, Mr. Bingley was indeed making arrangements to prepare for the ball.

Mr. Darcy shook his head.

Mr. Darcy urged Joe: "Since His Majesty the King is pressing hard, let's leave earlier."

Joe: "There are only two incidents related to the devil along the way. Mrs. Rochester has escaped, and the only person involved now is Mr. Elijah Bennett."

"The matter with him has not been completely resolved. If we want to return to the capital, we need to take him back with us."

Mr. Darcy nodded his assent.

On the day before the ball, Mr. Darcy and Jo packed their bags, and took Mr. Elijah Bennett with only a small suitcase for the capital.

System: [Good guy, now all the two protagonists of this book have fallen into your hands. 】

Just as the carriage was about to close and drive, George, who came to see them off, jumped into the carriage suddenly, and closed the door with a "click".

Mr. Darcy looked at him in disbelief, "Mr. Wickham, what are you doing? You didn't transfer your life, and you just left by yourself?"

George crossed his legs, squeezed to Joe's side, and said with a smile: "Anyway, I can't stay for a day, sister, sister, please help me."

He looked at Joe with a coquettish look begging for mercy.

Darcy showed an unbearable look.

Qiao Wen said: "Since you don't want to, then I will find a way."

George lay on the table and said in a muffled voice, "Well, I don't want to. I'm going to die if I stay here any longer. It's so boring."

Mr. Darcy couldn't help but said: "You are going to the barracks, it's fine if you don't train well, why do you still have a chat?"

Qiao Wen said: "George has just come down from the battlefield, so he may not be suitable for this kind of life."

She reached out and touched George's golden hair, and George smiled and rubbed against Joe's palm a few times.

Mr. Darcy felt a tightness in his chest.

He wanted to say why George was acting like a baby when he was so old, but he was afraid that Joe would think he was taking too much care of him, so he could only keep silent.

Elijah thoughtfully said: "There are indeed few activities in the countryside, and I spend most of my time reading."

George: "Let me read a book, it would be better to send me directly to the battlefield."

Joe frowned, looking regretful.

Mr. Darcy couldn't stand it anymore, "Don't worry too much about Mr. Wickham's matter. I will write to my cousin and ask him to help solve it."

Joe's eyes lit up, "Mr. Darcy..."

Facing such eyes, how could he be indifferent.

Darcy smiled bitterly: "Sometimes, I really envy Mr. Wickham."

George spread his hands and said, "Mr. Darcy is really dissatisfied, you don't even know how much I envy you."

Elijah poured a cup of hot tea for Joe, and said with a smile, "I don't want to be envious like you, I just want to be myself."

Joe turned his head and smiled at him, "I like Mr. Bennett's words, and I just want to be myself."

Mr. Darcy tightened his face, "Well, it makes sense."

George chuckled to himself.

He stared at Elijah with half of his cheeks and said, "Don't say I can't bear it, Mr. Darcy can't bear this kind of country place even more?"

Darcy said nothing.

George: "After all, you have to leave before the dance because you are afraid of meeting those people."

Elijah was just taking out the book to read, and gripped the pages tightly at the sound.

Darcy sneered.

George: "It's a small place in the country, and the people are strange, but it can't catch Mr. Darcy's eyes."

Darcy said coldly: "There is no need to have too many contacts with these people. If we go to the ball, there must be many people who come to seek relationships."

Elijah's face darkened.

Qiao smiled and said, "What book are you reading? Hey, there are notes on it?"

Elijah was distracted, and said softly, "I like to take some notes when I'm reading."

"The notes are well written."

Joe moved towards Elijah in the posture of reading a book.

Mr. Darcy clenched his fists violently.

George smiled and said, "I saw that you were impatient, Mr. Darcy, and you must have endured a lot."

Mr. Darcy: "Some ladies in the country are really hard to communicate with."

Elijah looked up sharply at Mr. Darcy.

Mr. Darcy raised his chin with an arrogant and proud expression, "Is Mr. Bennett a little closer to Miss Joe?"

Elijah: "Mr. Darcy may have taken too much care, Bishop Wickham and I have a serious social distance."

Darcy stared at the arms of the two leaning together, "A serious social distance?"

"Mr. Bennet must be very worried about his situation now?"

Elijah said coldly: "This matter will not bother Mr. Darcy."

Joe said: "Don't worry, I will help you."

Elijah's face softened.

Darcy's complexion became more and more ugly.

He didn't want to turn himself into a jealous husband, but he couldn't help it.

Mr. Darcy: "Mr. Elijah..."

Elijah looked at Darcy sharply, "Mr. Darcy, do you have any dissatisfaction with me? Why do you keep targeting me? I am very grateful that you can come to save me, but I don't want to experience the humiliation of your superiority. "

Darcy froze for a moment, "Mr. Bennett, why are you blaming me?"

He glanced at Joe, and seeing that Joe seemed to be thinking about what Elijah had just said, he became more and more irritable.

"If you say this intentionally for other reasons, then I have to say that you are a very scheming gentleman."

Joe and George stared blankly at the two of them. You talked to me and started the Shura field. A lot of intense emotions spewed out, making Jojo earn a lot of money.
