On the front line, Sheridan frowned after receiving Margaret's secret order.

He didn't expect the spy to be that person.

Perhaps in Sheridan's view, he is the one who has the least motivation. Is it good for him to betray his country?As long as this war is won, he will benefit the most. Why on earth would he do this?

Although the letter stated that this was Margaret's guess, Sheridan knew that the Queen would not issue such an absolute order without sufficient evidence.

Margaret now needed him to complete this final piece of the puzzle.

In Olivia's palace, Margaret once again sent away Duke Zephaniah whose legs were weak, and the situation in Otto's imperial city was as she expected.

She sent the letter to Samantha, and began to figure out who to send to the imperial city of Otto.

This matter should not be alarmed, and Samantha must be united, and the Otto Allied Forces on the front line should not be given any chance to respond, but it seems that she has no military talents around her.

Margaret was thinking, and Eunice handed over an invitation card. It was a post for a tea party for noble ladies. They all knew that the Queen liked to have a kind personality, and they were not much different from their age. They liked to chat with their peers. Margaret had a particularly good reputation among noble women, so they dared to invite the Queen to their tea party.

But Margaret is obviously not in the mood to eat pastries and talk about jewelry now. She rejected the postings from the noble ladies. It would be great if they could solve her problems for her, but it is unlikely. They know nothing about politics and military affairs.

It's still an education issue. When Olivia is stable, she needs to pay attention to education. Who said that only men can enter colleges and politics, and women can too!Judy Wilde is a model, and she can be used as a template in the future.

Of course, this is all for the future. The problem now is that she has no one to use. It would be great if Olivia had a second General Alfred.

Um?Second Alfred?

A name popped up in Margaret's mind, and it seemed that there was no lack of it. Didn't General Alfred have a daughter who was always by his side, and she seemed to be called Minian Alfred.

She performed exceptionally well in the last hunting ground. Minian was taken to the battlefield by the general for many years, but because of her gender, everyone would subconsciously ignore her. If she is really talented, then she can be regarded as a treasure.

Minian Alfred did not follow her father back to the La Bellier line of defense this time, and her father asked her to stay and protect His Majesty.

The Alfred family has been loyal for generations. Minian was taken care of by Margaret's mother when she was a child, and she also liked His Majesty very much. There was no complaint about being left alone to protect the Empress.

It's just that the queen said she wants her to lead troops to fight?

Minian grabbed her skirt anxiously, "But Your Majesty, I am a woman, and the ministers will not agree."

Margaret comforted her: "They won't know, this matter needs to be carried out in secret, Minian, I'm asking you, don't care about other people's opinions, if something goes wrong, I will take care of it for you."

MINIAN Does she think?Of course she wants to!

She wanted to lead an army to the front line, but her father didn't allow it. Her father protected her too much. He would give everything for Olivia and the monarch he believed in, but he didn't ask Minian is also like this.

My father hoped that she could spend her life happily and carefree like the noble ladies in the imperial city.

But this is not the life she wants.

But every time she looked into her father's sad eyes, she couldn't refuse him. Father loved his mother too much, and he was always brooding over his mother's death. He didn't want to lose his family again.

Margaret seemed to see the hesitation in Minian's heart, "If the general is held accountable, I will fully bear it."

Minian shook her head, her eyes gradually became firmer, "Your Majesty, as you said, this is my own decision. No matter what the result is, I have never regretted my choice today."

She knelt down on one knee and saluted Margaret in a true knightly salute, "Your Majesty, please allow me to fight for you. Wherever your scepter points is my home."

......

She handed over to Minian at the Otto Imperial City, and she has already led the army to leave. Besides Minian, she also sent other talented people from the Knights to go to other small towns in the Otto Alliance Army. nation.

She made a clear distinction with Samantha in the letter, and she did everything she could do, and the rest was up to the game afterwards.

She cannot lose, nor is she allowed to lose.

At the same time, Jared Josie, who was far away on the front line, received a letter from the Duke of Zephaniah. After reading the letter, he took advantage of the night to find Sheridan who was still watching the sand map of the battlefield.

This was not the first time he had met Sheridan, he had known Sheridan Wilde since his time in the Royal Knights.He admires his character and knight's noble beliefs, but he doesn't agree with his way of doing things because he is too sharp.

In the jewel-colored imperial city, everyone is mellow, and suddenly there is a spear that is out of place in the crowd, a weapon that can stab others at any time, people talk about him, fear him, hate his out-of-group, Laughing at his hypocrisy, hoping to break the spear with these.

He left the knight order many years ago and went to the battlefield. He didn't know what happened to Sheridan after that, but this time he met this very favored person next to Lord Weber for the first time.

But he knew that Sheridan was still the same as before, moving forward on his thorny road, he had not changed, nor had he wavered in his faith, because the Queen had affirmed him.

Jared handed the token from Earl Zephaniah to Sheridan: "Your Excellency."

Sheridan looked up from the battle situation with a slightly surprised expression: "I didn't expect that the assistant His Majesty mentioned would be you, but it is reasonable." He extended his hand to Jared, "It's a pleasant cooperation."

To be honest, Jared never thought that he would shoulder such a heavy task. What he thought about in his mind was no longer how to win, but how to let the spy show his feet.

He reached out to hold Sheridan: "Have a nice cooperation, Your Excellency."

At the morning meeting the next day, Webb Bartlett got angry for the first time at the meeting, "You want to withdraw troops? Sheridan Wilde, are you going to disobey His Majesty's order!"

Sheridan was not afraid of Weber at all: "Your Excellency, instead of withdrawing troops, we will withdraw the troops that are too far ahead to a safe area. After the last time, the Otto coalition forces have been aware of our plan, and they are bound to launch a counterattack in the near future." , our location has been exposed, we must find another place."

As soon as Sheridan said this, some veterans in the army agreed one after another, so everyone ignored Weber's opinion for the first time and made the final decision.

Webb was very angry in his tent, and his guard Jared said to him, "Your Excellency, there are gossips that the Otto Allied Forces have recently received a batch of extremely lethal munitions. If you don’t retreat, you might as well retreat according to their wishes, but at the same time you must not lose the right to speak, for example, the location of the retreat must be determined by you, we will retreat to advance and recharge our batteries.”

"Your Excellency, our ultimate goal is to win this war."

Weber knew about Jared's family. He knew that Zephaniah intended to train Jared. He made Jared his bodyguard in order to sell the Duke of Zephaniah to win him over.

The Duke of Austin and the Duke of Horatio are no longer afraid of him, but the Wilde family has been in the limelight recently. If he pulls the Duke of Zephaniah to his side, the Wilde family will have to fear him.At that time, even if Sheridan is favored by the queen again, he will be able to check and balance Wilde.

What's more, what he wants is far more than that. What he values ​​is the financial resources behind Zephaniah and the relationship with the mercenary group. He sees farther and wants to stand in a higher position. You can just throw it away. If the matter is revealed afterwards, it is also Duke Zephaniah's business, so what does it have to do with him.

There was no news from the mercenary group halfway. He was worried about something unexpected, but it seemed that he had arrived, but the news didn't reach him in time.

As for why Jared knew, the only possibility is that the Duke of Zephaniah told him the news.

Weber put his hand on Jared's shoulder, "Jared Knight, you are very good, the Duke of Zephaniah is proud of you." He will praise this young man in front of Zephaniah, which is not bad scapegoat.

Jared's eyes lit up, and he said happily, "Thank you, Your Excellency!"

"Actually, there's one more thing..." Jared hesitated for a moment, wondering if he should say it.

Weber asked, "What's the matter?"

Jared: "The Duke said that His Majesty has not been in good health recently. Although the news has been blocked, the injury he suffered last time has recurred again. The Duke asked me to act as His Majesty to relieve his worries."

"Oh? What's more?" A light flashed in Weber's eyes. Why didn't there be any news from his father when the Queen's condition relapsed.

Just as he thought so, the soldiers outside came in to report, "Your Excellency, you have a letter from Duke Bartlett."

Weber looked at Jared, and Jared stepped back tactfully.

The letter was more about condolences to him, but from just a few words, Weber could see that it might be true that the Queen was in poor health.

Weber burned the letter and sneered.

The soldier asked: "Your Excellency, is it true that you did not tell the Duke about that?"

Weber: "Father is old, there are some things that don't bother him."

The less Duke Bartlett knew, the more it would be beneficial for him to lay out behind the scenes. The more loyal Duke Bartlett was to the Empress, the less the Empress would doubt him.

After all, the duke, the head of the family, sincerely relies on him, so how could his son have two hearts.

The weapons of the Otto Alliance Army are in place, and the queen is critically ill. This is a golden opportunity.

But he has to wait a little longer until everything is confirmed by himself, and it will not be too late to do it.He has been hiding for so many years, but he can't ruin everything just because of a momentary haste.

In the imperial city, Margaret was lying on the bed pretending to be sick, and Eunice was still putting powder on her face. She was stimulated by the powder and sneezed, "Enough is enough, Eunice, I am white enough, as long as Just let others see that I'm weak."

"Your Majesty, Steward Richard is here."

Eunice put away her powder puff, Margaret lay down on the ground, and said in a weak voice, "Let him in."

After Clichy's death, Richard became more and more old, and there was a posture that he would go to accompany Clichy soon.

Margaret asked him, "Did His Royal Highness meet anyone before meeting me that day?"

Richard said slowly: "Yes."

Margaret was furious: "Who?"

"The eldest son of the Duke of Bartlett, Weber Bartlett."
