This is a small yard with only two rooms and a concierge in the yard. After being admitted, the two hurriedly entered the main room in the center of the yard.

After entering the door, the woman in front took off her cloak and revealed her full picture. She was a young woman of about twenty-five or twenty-six years, with a melon-shaped face, pointed chin, delicate skin and soft hair. Her haggard face made her feel sick. The girl in her arms also looked pale, and the little girl's thin arms and legs seemed to have no weight in the woman's hands, and she seemed to be sick, with an unnatural blush on her cheeks.

"Miss, Master, he still rejected us." The cloaked man behind also revealed his true face. He was an old man in his fifties and sixties, with wrinkles on his face. He seemed to be the woman's servant.

"Oh, he can't even protect himself, so why would he send troops to escort my mother and son?" said the beautiful woman, "Rafe, go and serve Christine with a bowl of soup." The woman gently touched the head of the little girl in her arms, put her on the chair next to her, and ordered the maid who had just entered the door behind her.

"Miss, there is almost no surplus food at home." The little maid said with a crisp look down. When the woman heard this, she asked in surprise, "Didn't I just pawn my earrings and bracelets? Isn't the money enough for these two meals?"

"Madam, the price of grain in the city has risen again, and it is difficult to buy things if you have money." Rafi explained in a low voice.

"Forget it, let's wait as long as you can, it's really not possible..." The woman touched the sapphire necklace on her neck. This was her last piece of jewelry and the most precious one.

The maid took the order to serve the little girl with soup. A bowl of plain noodle soup was the only food in the house. The woman and the two servants did not eat. She (they) could still stand up, but the sick little girl could not stand up. Both servants seemed to be strict with the tutors. Although they did not eat, they did not show anything. The old servant consciously went to the door to watch the night, and the maid also returned to the room to rest at the woman's instructions.

The woman took the spoon and carefully fed the little girl. The little girl sat obediently on the chair, not making noise or making noise, but just drank the soup fed by the woman. The little girl squinted her eyes and drank slowly, as if she was enjoying some delicious food. "My sister-in-law, drink it too." The little girl's voice was very glutinous, maybe because of her illness, her little face was slightly red, revealing a sense of cuteness.

"Auntie has drunk it, little Christine, you must get better quickly." The woman showed a kind look.

"Yeah, so hurry!" the little girl nodded heavily.

"Auntie, too~" At night, the girl's voice came.

The woman is called Grace. She is not an ordinary woman, but a daughter of a marquis. She is also a famous beauty in the Kingdom of Charlottes. Her father was Marquis Philip, one of the three Marquises of Charlottes. As a marquis, she is the pearl of the imperial capital and the flowers of the kingdom.

But she was just an ordinary woman at this time, a woman who was about to reach a desperate situation.

After feeding Christine, Grace comforted the little girl to sleep. Because all the money she brought was spent, she couldn't take the little girl to see a doctor. Moreover, if she had money, she might not be able to find a doctor now. During the war, the doctor would be forced to enlist in the army. Now Charlotte is at the critical moment of the survival of the kingdom. I am afraid that the doctors only have the lords with heavy troops, such as her younger brother, the current lord of Frans City Willis.

After taking care of the little girl, Grace sat quietly beside the bed. Tonight was a cloudy night, without the moonlight, and dark, just like her heart, covered with a shadow. She couldn't help but think of her father, the famous Marquis of Philip.

There are three provinces in Charlotte, corresponding to three marquises, namely Marquis Philip, Marquis Campbell, and Marquis Clark. The three marquises are in charge of the three provinces to defend the kingdom. Now there are only two marquis left in the kingdom. Marquis Clark died in a bloody battle with the enemy in Gordon Heights. Marquis Philip and Marquis Campbell are now ordered by the king to garrison the capital of Entel and Ellis.

On that night a month ago, my father called her to meet and told her to pack her luggage and take her eldest brother's daughter to join her younger brother Willis. "This time is the time for life and death in the kingdom." Marquis Philip, who was once energetic, is now just a gray-haired old man. "Hurry up and take Christine to find your younger brother Willis. His territory is very close to the Mofi Forest. You ask him to borrow troops to protect you across the Mofi Forest to the opposite Karaman Kingdom. I also have some manors over there. If you go there, you can eat and wear food and clothing in the future." Marquis Philip's warning is still vivid in his ears, "Remember, don't come back. The royal family is now staring at the people of our family and not letting them escape in the last battle. The men in the family have no chance. Only you and Christine are allowed to leave. You must live for the blood of the Philip family!"

Grace took Christine to protect her, her younger brother who had never been valued by others. Perhaps because of the cold treatment and contempt she had received when she was young, he, the younger brother born to a maid in his father and family, had no affection for himself and Christine who came to join him, and even transferred his guards to defend the city, but arranged his few of them to a yard and then ignored him.

"Willis wants to cross the map of the Mofi Forest and the property of the Karaman Kingdom Manor." As a famous socialite, Grace can certainly discover his younger brother's intentions. It would be fine if everyone left together at that time, but his attitude seems to be to leave them alone.

Fortunately, many people in the city troops knew her daughter, the head of the family, and Willis did not dare to blatantly and could only adopt this method of house arrest.

Little Christine fell asleep quietly. Grace covered her cunt horns and lay beside her, but she couldn't sleep. She hadn't had a day with her maid Lafite and the housekeeper. Today she just stole two pieces of pastries when she met her brother at the lord's mansion at noon. Willis wanted to force them into a desperate situation.

Just as Grace forced herself to sleep to avoid hunger, noises and cries came from outside. And it became more and more intense, as if the city was in chaos all of a sudden. "What's going on?" Grace opened the door and looked out.

"Miss, no, the army of the Forstein Kingdom is besieging the city!" The old butler's voice came, "No, let's go quickly, and we have not completely surrounded the city." The old butler hurriedly urged.

Grace immediately went back to the room, picked up Christine who had not yet woken up, and followed the crowd with the old housekeeper and maid. The people living in this place were rich and powerful people. At least the direction was correct. It was too late, so she could only fight to the death. The old housekeeper and maid were both practicing fighting spirit, hoping that they could take them out of the Mofi Forest.

Outside the city, Baron Kaidozi and Baron Kashgar sat around the campfire, looking like they were roasting a pheasant, "This guy was caught by my guard, Harvey. You are blessed tonight, Baron Kaidozi." Baron Kashgar joked.

"It is my honor to eat what Baron Kashgar roasted." Baron Kadozi said modestly.

The soldiers around the two marched quickly. They had already discussed on the road before, but they would use the previous method to surround three and one missing one. Baron Kaidozi blocked a city gate, and Baron Kashgar blocked two city gates, leaving a retreat for Francis City.

The reason for this was to prevent the city of Francis from fighting against the enemy and give them a hope that they would not leave all their strength to fight with them. Moreover, the city gate that was left behind was not so easy to run. Baron Kaidozi's cavalry squadron stayed at the city gate waiting for them. The task of the cavalry squadron was to intercept the escaped merchants and nobles. These people were fat. Knights Will, who had high-level knight attendants, were stationed, and both of them were relieved.

When the pheasants on the bonfire were roasted, the siege had ended. Nearly a thousand soldiers surrounded the small town twice, and even a squadron of the Baron Kashgar was stationed at the north gate where the retreat was to Frans.

All the soldiers were supplementing food and maintaining their spirits under the orders of their respective commanders. They surrounded and did not attack tonight, mainly to overwhelm the resistance consciousness of the Charlottes. Moreover, the troops marched for a day and needed adjustments. Everyone received the news that they would start siegeing the city in the early morning tomorrow.

Locke is now at the West City Gate, which is the responsibility of their battalion to attack the Encheng Gate. I don’t know what deals the Baron and the Baron Kashgar have. In short, which one of the first companies to attack the city will receive a generous reward.

Tomorrow, the third squadron will first test the siege and check the defensive power of the city gate. Then the first and second squadrons will join together. This is the highlight, and it will usually be a final decision. This is just a small city. The cities I won before are doing this. Their squadrons are in the third batch, and the main thing is to clean up the mess.

Tomorrow's mission seems to be easier than others, Locke breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, although he has been a soldier for four years and has seen blood and flames countless times, Locke is still very awe of death. He can obtain the lowest risk task. Although there is little oil and water, Locke is also very satisfied. Only by living can he have hope.
