Chapter 801 Celebration and Conspiracy
Of course, Geralt's behavior could not be hidden from Fringilla. She seemed to have guessed something about it, and did not ask any more questions, nor did she stop her. The relationship with Geralt also became dull day by day, as if she had no longer considered this relationship.
Take it to heart.
However, when everyone started to prepare to leave, an unexpected incident disrupted everyone's plans. Dandelion was sent to prison by the duchess and locked up.
After hearing the news, everyone, including Leo, felt a little incredible, because even Leo, who was the most insensitive to feelings, could feel that the duchess was truly attracted to Dandelion. If it weren't for her identity and other reasons,
Due to external factors, the Duchess might have already taken the initiative to propose to Dandelion, and staged a drama of a woman chasing a man.
However, such a person who loved Dandelion so deeply suddenly ordered Dandelion to be sent to the cell. There were even rumors that she was still considering executing Dandelion. When the news first became known to everyone, everyone immediately
It felt impossible, it was just a rumor, but soon after the exact news arrived, everyone began to wonder if the duchess had been under some kind of mind-losing spell, so they asked Sylvia and Fringilla to go to Beauclair Palace to find out the news.
.
About two hours later, Sylvia and Fringilla returned to the Knights of Light's station and brought back the answer.
It turned out that all of this was purely Dandelion's attempt to commit suicide, because he actually seduced the Duchess's maid, Baroness Nico, while she was not paying attention, and had a relationship with her, and was caught by the Duchess.
The duchess was sent directly from Baroness Nick's bed to prison, and the rumors they heard before were not completely false. The furious duchess was indeed considering beheading Dandelion.
"This damn guy! Can't you control your lower body?" Milva, who has a straightforward personality, waved the bow and arrow in her hand and cursed: "If I had known better, I should have castrated him." As she said this, she turned back to look.
After looking at the men in the room, he finally fixed his gaze on Geralt and snorted: "Men are not good things."
Hearing that he had been innocently affected, Geralt was a little bit dumbfounded, but he was not in the mood to deal with the mood of the team members now. Instead, he was very concerned about the safety of his friend Dandelion, so he asked Fringilla:
"Is there any way to get him out?"
"Yes, as long as Sylvia opens her mouth, I think the Baroness will agree to let her go." Fringilla looked at Sylvia beside her and said.
Geralt heard this and looked at Sylvia, but Sylvia shook her head and said: "Since the Duchess did not kill Dandelion immediately, it means that she will not kill Dandelion.
Well, those cruel words were just what she said casually when she was still angry. Don't worry. In fact, it is better to keep Dandelion in prison now, lest he comes out and cause trouble to everyone. We should wait until we leave.
Get him out. By then, even if the Duchess is unwilling to let it go, we can rob the prison and leave Toussaint immediately. By then, it will be impossible for the Duchess to chase us."
After hearing Sylvia's words, everyone felt that it made sense. Even Geralt felt that it would be better to let Dandelion suffer a little in prison, so as not to cause trouble everywhere.
After learning that Dandelion was not in danger, everyone dispersed, but Sylvia stopped Leo, and after everyone else left, she said slowly: "Are you here for me?
"
After hearing this, Leo was stunned. He didn't understand what it meant at first, so he asked, "What's coming at you?"
Sylvia told Leo that the nobles and nobles of Beauclair had begun to create rumors about her in front of the duchess.
After hearing this, Leo asked in confusion: "Why are you going to deal with Dandelion instead of coming for you?"
"I think those guys may have thought that Dandelion often said good things to me in front of the Duchess, so the Duchess would allow me to expand the Knights and establish the church." Sylvia knew these things like palace struggles very well,
Explained: "So after they saw that they couldn't bring me down, they decided to get rid of Dandelion first, so that the duchess would have one less person to speak for me, and then deal with me." As she said that, she paused.
, and then said: "If my guess is correct, they will probably find an opportunity to take Fringilla away in the next two days, so there will be no one around the duchess to speak for us."
After hearing the explanation, Leo couldn't help but smile: "Don't they know that the relationship between the Duchess and you is not like that at all? Even if Dandelion and Fringilla are gone, the Duchess will not do anything to you?"
Sylvia shrugged and said: "You must know that fools have narrow vision. They only want to see what they want to see."
Leo smiled and said, "Do I need to do anything?"
Sylvia was silent for a moment and said: "Since they have already attacked us, we can't make excuses if we don't fight back. Don't we happen to have a guy to deal with? Let's use him to give those guys a warning!"
"Count Brita?" Leo said in confirmation.
Sylvia nodded and sneered: "He is the most active person among the nobles. I heard that he came up with the plan to deal with Dandelion. The Baroness is said to have a good relationship with him. Maybe he is also a reflection of the light."
Convener of the Knights Alliance."
"Reflective Knights Alliance?" Leo raised his eyebrows and said, "Don't they know that you have dispersed the powers of the Knights of Light and are preparing to leave Toussaint?"
Sylvia sneered: "Of course I know, but they may think that I am just creating an illusion! Anyway, in their minds, I have ulterior motives in everything I do, and every decision may be against them."
"Leave Count Britta to me!" Leo said calmly: "How do you want him to die?"
"If I really plan to seize power, I would naturally let Count Britta die as tragically as possible. This will serve as a sufficient deterrent and help me gain more rights." Sylvia
After thinking for a while, he said: "But we just want to prevent those nobles from jumping out to cause trouble for us and preventing us from leaving before we leave, so as long as Earl Britta dies suddenly in front of those people, let them know that Britta
We caused the count's death, but we can't find any reason to do so, so we can only be afraid and suspicious in our hearts. By then, they will probably want us to leave quickly and will not create obstacles for us at all."
Hearing Sylvia's words, Leo nodded, indicating that he knew what to do, and then walked out of the room, left the manor, and disappeared into the woods outside the manor.
Dandelion was imprisoned. To the ordinary people, it was just that the Duchess lost a lover. This kind of thing was just a little talk after dinner, but when most people mentioned Dandelion, they only felt gloating.
, more of a bit of envy. After all, even though Dandelion was in prison, he once enjoyed things that they had never enjoyed before. He lay in the bed of the Duchess. This alone was enough to make all the men in Toussaint feel happy.
So envious.
However, for those who planned all this, Dandelion's imprisonment was undoubtedly a huge success. This success was enough for them to hold a banquet for it, so there were more than ten people with high status in Toussaint.
The great nobles came to Count Britta's villa in Beauclair one after another to attend the banquet hosted by Count Britta for this victory and discuss what to do next.
During the cocktail party in the villa garden, a nobleman came to Count Britta with a wine glass and said: "My Lord Count, your plan is really effective. It was successful in less than two days. If it hadn't been for you,
We still don’t know how to deal with that guy!”
"Hmph! That guy is a guy who can't control his lower body. You didn't see that when he attended the banquet, his eyes never left the breasts and buttocks of those ladies. If the duchess hadn't been so strict, he might have
He has already cheated." Count Britta took a sip of the wine in the glass and said: "Now we are helping him create opportunities and we have also given him a beautiful woman, how could he be able to bear it."
Another young nobleman came over and said with regret: "It's a pity that the Baroness was implicated this time. I'm afraid she won't be able to stay in Toussaint in the future."
"What? Are you related to Baroness Nick?" Count Britta asked with a smile.
The young nobleman did not deny it, and said calmly: "I thought for a while last year that she was a very good lover."
The big noble next to him smiled and said: "Then you don't have to worry about your lover. We paid a lot of money to get Baroness Nick to take action. Now she is probably on her way to the new empire of Nilfgaard."
On the way to the manor." After that, he told the other party an address and said: "If you still want to renew your relationship with that baroness, you'd better go there as soon as possible. Now the baroness is because of the angry duchess.
And when I am anxious and anxious, I need a young and strong chest like yours to rely on."
After saying that, he dismissed Count Britta, and the young noble who was teased didn't care. He quickly took out a small notebook from his pocket and wrote down the address.
By this time, the guests had almost arrived. Count Britta signaled to the guarding knights, and all the guards and attendants left the garden and closed the door.
Count Britta walked to the long chief seat in the middle of the garden and knocked the bell on the table to remind everyone.
The nobles attending the banquet in the garden came to the table one after another and sat on the seats that fit their status.
It wasn't until everyone sat down that Count Britta spoke: "You guys have solved the poet, which is just a small victory for us, but we are still far away from the final victory. We still need to solve one person before we can win."
Can truly deal with that woman of the Knight of Light."
"Who else needs to be solved?" someone couldn't help but ask.
"Fringilla Vigo has become a close friend of the Knight of Light." Count Britta said.
"You're crazy!" Many people present frowned, and one of the nobles, whose identity was no worse than that of Count Britta, said mercilessly: "Miss Wei Ge is not the poet who has nothing.
, she is a close relative of the duchess, a palace advisor, and also has considerable influence in the Nilfgaard Empire. You actually want to deal with her. I really wonder if you were dazzled by the momentary victory.
"
Earl Britta knew that this great noble was competing with him for the dominance of the current alliance, so no matter what he said, the other party would refute it to show his sense of existence. Therefore, although he hated this great noble in his heart, there was a look on his face.
He didn't show any hostility. Instead, he smiled as if nothing was wrong and said: "I think Earl Bain misunderstood me. Of course, I can't possibly want to deal with Miss Wei Ge. I just hope that Miss Wei Ge will
Before we solve the problem of the Knight of Light, let’s leave Toussaint for a while.”
"Leave Toussaint?" Someone asked in confusion: "How to let her leave?"
"Of course this requires the help of Baron Leonard." Count Britta looked at another liaison officer stationed here from the Nilfgaard Empire and said.
For the Nilfgaard Empire, Toussaint is in its back garden, and he will never allow anything to threaten his power in the Principality of Toussaint.
In the past, it didn't matter that the Principality of Toussaint had those wandering knights. After all, those wandering knights were not nice to say, and they were only a little stronger than ordinary bandits. They were not enough to control the Nilfgaard Empire's control over the surrounding areas.
cause impact.
But the Knights of Light are different. From the battle in Berenhaven, it can be seen that the Knights of Light are very powerful, and they have a firm belief because of the Knights of Light. Although they are unwilling to admit it, after seeing the Knights of Light with their own eyes,
After joining the Knights, Baron Leonard believed that the most powerful knights in the Nilfgaard Empire might be inferior to them.
So when he learned that the nobles in Toussaint were dissatisfied with the upstart Knight of Light and wanted to deal with her, he took the initiative to contact them, provide necessary help, and use the hands of these nobles to deal with the Knight of Light.
After hearing Count Britta's introduction, Baron Leonard stood up, saluted everyone, and then briefly explained the Nilfgaard Empire's attitude towards the Knight of Light's actions in Toussaint.
After a while, he said that the behavior of the Knight of Light will bring instability to Toussaint. The empire you attached is not willing to see any trouble in the Principality of Toussaint, especially when the emperor is preparing for a new round of Northern Expedition.
In this matter, he said that he would assist the Knights of Reflection Alliance to deal with the Knights of Light.
Then, he mentioned the method of transferring Fringilla Weige. In fact, this method is very simple. It is to directly use the Emperor's Northern Expedition Army to summon the accompanying mages as an excuse to transfer Fringilla Weige to Nilfgaard.
