The Last Frontier of Fire and Sword

Chapter 877: Pidro's procrastination

After reaching a private agreement with Lubaumacki and sending him out of Vidawa's territory, Pidro returned home.

By the evening of the next day, Pidro began to pretend to be sick.

"I have a fever."

He said to Cheerchen and Christina who came to visit him.

In order to act realistically, Pidro really stripped himself this time and jumped into a bucket of ice water.

"Dear uncle, it's just a fever, Sarben can cure you with a single dose." Cheerchen said emotionally while holding Pidro's hot hand.

While talking, Sarben had already come to the door of the room with the medicine box on his back.

Cheerchen quickly moved around to make room for the doctor.

After careful inspection, Sarben told Cheerchen that Deputy Captain Pidro had just a small cold, and he would heal in a few days after taking the medicine he prescribed.

"However," Sarben told Chechen: "Head of the regiment, it's freezing outside now, and the deputy head of the regiment is already weak after he is sick. It is best not to travel far, but to stay at home and take a good rest."

Cheorchen nodded and said yes.

But after Sarben left, Cheerchen was in trouble.

Because he was going to pack up his clothes and go to Sweden with Sister Christina.

But now that my uncle is sick and can't travel far, the trip to Sweden is bound to be delayed. But as the regent queen, how much government affairs of the Kingdom of Sweden wait for her to deal with, Christina can't set off after Vidawa waits for Uncle Pidro to recover.

In the end, Cheerchen decided to put his uncle first.

He said to Christina: "Sister Christina, or go back to Sweden first. I'm here to take care of my uncle. When the spring season gets warmer, his illness will recover. I'm going to Stockholm to find you."

"That's good." Christina nodded.

"Cough! Cough cough!"

At this moment, Pidro coughed loudly. Then he turned his head to Cheerchen and Christina: "My dear nephew, don't delay the trip because of me. You should go to Sweden with Her Majesty."

Hearing Pidro say this, Cheerchen said angrily: "Dear uncle, how could I leave you here alone. Of course we are leaving together."

Pidro waved his hand.

"No need to make such a fuss. Besides, you are not a doctor. Your stay here will not help me in the slightest. According to my opinion, you should go to Sweden with the queen first, just as if you are going to fight in front of you. And I will stay here. Vidava recovered from his illness and sold Vidava's house and land by the way."

"Uncle, I promised to leave all Bacht's property and houses to him." Chechen reminded.

"Oh, I remember, you agreed to him that way." Pidro made a sudden realization.

He went on to find another reason.

"Then don't sell land and houses, I will stay here to pick up the tal and gold coins that I buried in the forest just in case. These are the property of our uncle and nephew."

"When did you bury the treasure in Vidava? Why don't I know!" Cheer Chen said in surprise.

He did not expect Uncle Piedro to hide his private money.

Although Uncle Pedro had buried gold and silver coins before, he had never told himself where they were buried.

"This is not the point!"

Pidro was dizzy by Chechen's ability to divert the subject, and he felt his mind burned even harder. So while he was still awake, Pidro said his plan firmly in one breath.

"You and Your Majesty the Queen will go back to Sweden first, and bring Anna, Janusz and Fatima. Then I stay here to recuperate and deal with the aftermath. My uncle is old and has a bad memory. I also have some buried treasures. I don’t remember it clearly, so look for it carefully."

Cheerchen didn't agree at first, but he still felt that he couldn't leave Uncle Pidro here alone. But unable to withstand Pedro's stubborn opinion, he finally agreed to Uncle Le's plan.

"Except for the guard of Semeno who escorted me and Christina's sister, I will leave the rest of the mercenary group to you. When the spring starts next year, uncle, you can dig out those treasures as soon as possible, and then come to Stockholm to join us."

"I will, I will."

Pidro saw that his "treacherous trick" had succeeded, he cried out of joy, and held Cheorchen's hand tightly, tightly.

The next day after this, Cheerchen took Fatima and the two children on the journey to Sweden with Queen Christina.

And Pidro was sure that Cheerchen had gone far and would not come back later. He got up from the bed, and the first thing was to summon Viscount Hessian.

As soon as Viscount Hessian arrived, Pidro asked straightforwardly: "Viscount, how do I treat you on weekdays?"

Hearing this, Viscount Hessian was taken aback.

Does this deputy head of Pidro want to show his loyalty and stand in line? But the head of this mercenary group is his nephew, he will not want to engage in a coup or force the palace?

The Viscount thought for a while, and he sleekly replied: "You and Captain Cheerchen treated me very well."

"Don't talk to my nephew, just say how I treat you?" Piedro seemed to be dissatisfied with Viscount Hessian's answer, and he insisted on pressing.

These words pushed the Viscount Hessian to the corner~www.wuxiaspot.com~ He had to compliment: "The deputy commander, you are really the same as my father to me."

Pidro happily patted Viscount Hessian on the shoulder.

"Just know it! Now, Dad, I have a secret thing for you to do. When this thing is done, I will never treat you badly. After the thing is done, you will be waiting for you to become rich and high-ranking officials."

"What's the matter?!" Viscount Hessian heard Pidro say that if it was done, he would not only be able to become prosperous, but also get high-ranking officials, and he couldn't help being moved.

Pidro spoke in the ear of Viscount Hessian.

The more I listened, the paler Viscount Hessian's face became.

When Pidro finished speaking, Viscount Hessian asked tremblingly: "Does the captain know about this matter?"

"He doesn't know." Piedro said clearly.

The Viscount sighed, and seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Deputy Commander Pidro, I am willing to do what you say, because I respect you as I respect my father. But now I can only mobilize the Hessian mercenaries I know well, and like a horse. Mai’s Cossacks, Yelishei’s Cavalry, and Fedot’s Musketeers. They only listen to the commander. Without Chechen’s order, I can’t move them alone. With the hundreds of people in this area, I’m afraid It’s impossible to contribute much to your career and the marshal’s career."

The Viscount Hessian clearly made it difficult to tell Pidro that he couldn't do it.

But it is difficult for Viscount Hessian, but not for Pedro.

"Your Excellency, as long as you agree to obey my orders, I will take care of the others." Pidro said seriously.

Such seriousness is rare for Pidro, but if he shows such an attitude for something someday, then he must have done it.
