[West Fantasy] The noble lady who was divorced became rich

"I have a hunch that your trip to Obstar this time must not be peaceful." Abigail rubbed her ears, making sure that the place affected by the explosion had completely recovered.

"This kind of thing can be seen at a glance, and it needs to be predicted?" Mariana released Baixue, who had turned into a small snake, and the latter leaned sleepily on Mariana's bracelet, as if holding the gemstone on Mariana's bracelet. As a pillow.

"Haven't you recovered yet?" Because Baixue was used to being a little snake, Marianne specially cut her long nails to prevent herself from accidentally pinching Baixue's vitals.

Hearing Mariana's words of concern, Bai Xue flicked the tip of her tail happily, then rubbed her fingernail-sized head against Mariana's fingertips

Abigail watched the interaction between a man and a snake, and suddenly said in a strange way: "You might as well ask Lucius to come over."

Mariana's fingers that were touching the top of Bai Xue's head stopped suddenly, causing the latter to spit out the snake letter in confusion.

"If Lucius is here, no matter whether it is King Obstar or the beautiful snake entrenched in the palace, they will be more peaceful."

Although Abigail doesn't know exactly what kind of feelings King Obstar has for Lucius, but judging from the value of force, with Lucius here, those scavengers who are ordered by a certain beautiful snake will probably be there. Run away before striking, avoiding a direct confrontation with Lucius.

"Are you sure it's a good thing that Lucius is here?" Mariana finally retorted, "Who is the Grand Duchess Aquique?"

"You and Lucius' mother."

"Who is King Obstar?"

"Lucius' biological father, your uncle."

"Then what is it that I and the Grand Duchess Aquique fight against King Obstar?" Mariana looked at Abigail's suddenly enlightened expression, and continued to add: "Lucius will not hold King Obstar. There is mercy, and it won't stop me and Grand Duchess Aquique from dealing with him, but that doesn't mean he'll be happy to see his sister and his mother team up to deal with his biological father and his half-brother."

"As I said, Lucius is a person with a high sense of morality, so even if he doesn't bother Oster, but I will take this opportunity to return to the Papal State to calm down, I will find a chance to remove him from the entourage to Oster. Busta's list." Mariana slid down Snow White's spine, and Snow White immediately shook his head dizzily.

"The Grand Duchess Aquiquie must want Lucius to deal with King Obstar, and she doesn't even mind killing people and letting Lucius cut off the heads of the two princes with her own hands."

"Will Lord Lucius do this?" Lena on the side only felt horrified: "Your Excellency Lucius is a Templar knight, how could he do such a thing?"

Grand Duchess Aquiqui hated King Obstar no matter how much she hated, she shouldn't joke about her eldest son's future.After all, it was not easy for Lucius to get to this point. If the church really deprived him of his status as a Templar, then not only the investment of the Grand Duchess Aquique and Marianne in Lucius would be in vain, but even The entire Grand Duchy of Aquique would be discredited by it.

"I just raised this possibility, and I didn't say that my mother would really do this." Mariana also felt that the Grand Duchess Aquiquie was not that crazy. New Year will also make impulsive actions due to old events.

only……

"Emotions can't be controlled by anyone who wants to control them." As she grew older, Mariana gradually became unable to see through the various manipulations of the Grand Duchess Aquique.

You say she cares about her children!

However, the Grand Duchess Aquique actually showed very limited maternal love.

But you want to say that she doesn't care about her children!

Grand Duchess Aquique has indeed fulfilled her responsibilities as a mother.

In short, the attitude of Grand Duchess Aquique towards her children is very complicated and elusive.

Mariana always felt that she and Lucius were the kites in the hands of Grand Duchess Aquique, moving in a circular motion with each other's pulling.

And this feeling of being controlled made Mariana very uncomfortable.

What is even more frustrating is that Mariana has not yet been able to escape the control of the Grand Duchess Aquique, and she needs to use the momentum of the Grand Duchess Aquique and Seys to ensure that she will not be detained in the court by King Obsta Inside.

…………

……

"My dear Mariana, I am very pleasantly surprised by your arrival."

Considering his seniority and status, King Obstar would never welcome Mariana outside the palace gate, so he specially held a small meeting ceremony in the hall.

Compared with Earl Calda and Felipe who let themselves go, King Obsta, who pays attention to his image, is obviously the eldest brother, but he looks younger and more energetic than his two younger brothers.The extravagant life in the palace did not destroy his health, but instead made the ruler of Obstadion develop the charm that a mature man should have.

Seeing King Obstar like this, Mariana suddenly understood why the Grand Duchess Aquiqui was so dazzled by her when she was young, and even left behind the biggest black history in her life.

However, no matter how well-maintained a normal person is, he will not retain the same charm as when he was young after the age of 50.

To put it even more exaggeratedly, if the limiting factor of status was put aside, and Lucius and King Obstar stood side by side, then any woman with a normal mind would choose Lucius.

"Your Majesty." Facing King Obstar's exaggerated enthusiasm, Mariana curtseyed with a cold expression, and then watched him step forward to hug her.

"My poor and lovely niece, you must have been frightened by Colin's accident, but don't worry, here in Obstar, no one can hurt you." King Obstar cared like an old father The daughter pressed Mariana's shoulders like that, and said word by word: "I promise you this as a king. No one can hurt you in the country of Obstar."

After all, King Obstar took a special look at Queen Polina, and his meaning was obvious: "Because hurting you is the same crime as hurting me."

If the Grand Duchess of Aquique had pinned the cauldron of Mariana's assassination on Queen Polina and even the entire Kingdom of Obstar, then once Mariana had troubles, the Grand Duchy of Aquique and the lost heir would be lost. The ruler's Principality of Britannia will definitely fall to Cantero, and then Solins and Obstadt's unreliable ally, Odin, who is on the sidelines, will also beat the dog in the water. Crowd up and attack it.

Thinking about it this way, King Obstar regretted the act of abandoning Grand Duchess Aquique for love and marrying Queen Polina.

If there were no such incidents, Obstar would have been the most powerful country in the south and even on the mainland long ago, so there would be no such thing as today.

"Uncle, I am flattered by your enthusiasm, but at the same time I am very confused." Mariana did not relax from King Obusta's promise, but stabbed him pretending to be intimate: "But just to thank you Your welcome and commitment to me, I still have to wish you to find an amazing and perfect husband for Princess Innes. Although there has been a lot of filth between us, please believe in my respect for Princess Innes Blessings, as sincere as your concern for me."

King Obstar's smile was like a clown doll with the corner of his mouth pinned, until Marianna nodded to him, and then reacted to find a step for herself: "I haven't seen you for many years, you still have a sense of humor as always, and you are getting better and better." More like your mother."

"Really?" Marianne said against the general: "It's a pity that my mother didn't hear your evaluation of me, otherwise she would be very happy and proud."

"I also miss Isabella very much, and it's a pity that she can't come in person." King Obstar was thicker than Mariana thought, and even held Mariana's hand and introduced her to Polina Queen and others.

"I don't think you can remember what your aunt and cousins ​​looked like. After all, you also said that there was a lot of filth between us, so it will hinder our recognition of the people close to us to a certain extent."

"Yes, you're absolutely right." Mariana felt that the hand tightly held by King Obstar was unusually disgusting, and she even wanted to wash that hand a thousand times with soap immediately.

And just as Mariana was forcibly enduring it, a white snake with the thickness of a middle finger suddenly drilled out of Mariana's cuff and bit King Obstar's hand.

"Hiss!" King Obstar, who was thrown away in pain, was about to ask how poisonous snakes got in the palace, but was interrupted by Marianna's apology.

"Sorry, Your Majesty, I forgot to put my pet back." Mariana caressed Bai Xue who kept spitting out snake letters, which made King Obstar, in addition to being angry, have to put on a tolerant gesture.

"I thought little girls would prefer kittens and puppies, or small animals like parrots and rabbits." King Obusta seemed to want to get closer to Marianne, so he specifically mentioned his daughter: "Your Cousin Innes has a few cute puppies, maybe you will have a lot of common language with her in terms of pets."

Innes, who was suddenly mentioned by his father, looked timidly at his mother who suppressed his anger, and then showed an endearing smile to Mariana: "Dear cousin, I think you will like these cute furry creatures, even I would like to part with you."

"Your generosity really surprises me." Marianne touched Bai Xue's head, her perfunctory feelings were almost superficial: "It's just that I already have a favorite pet, so I don't need to take away your love."

Princess Innes and Marianne looked into each other's eyes, and always felt that the phrase "take your love" had a deep meaning.It was hard for her not to think of Mariana's divorce from Emperor Odin and her marriage contract with Emperor Odin.

【How to do? 】

Princess Innes knew that her father intended her two older brothers to propose marriage to Marianne, and even made it one of the necessary conditions for inheriting the throne in order to merge the Grand Duchy of Aquique and the Duchy of Britannia into Obsta.

If Mariana would hate her for this, and even instigated her brother to reduce her support after being crowned as the mistress of Obsta, then her life in the Odin Palace would never be worse than that of Mariana back then. Better off.

"If you are not interested in what ordinary girls like, then I would like to take you to hunt or visit the various markets in Obstar." Just when Innes was extremely embarrassed, the distance from Obstar Prince Liam, the king's nearest, said suddenly, "I must have never had a chance to see the country Queen Mary loved since she passed away."

Mariana looked at Prince Liam who spoke, and King Obstar also introduced at the right time: "Your eldest cousin welcomes you very much."

"I am also very grateful that you are here to welcome me, an insignificant person." Mariana nodded to Prince Liam, and the latter also took Mariana's right hand from his father under the gaze of King Obstar. , and kissed lightly on it.

"Your Highness, I have to say that you are more beautiful than I thought." Prince Liam has the same red hair and young and handsome face as Lucius, but compared to the serious and reserved Lucius, he looks free and easy A lot, even a bit of Dan Hill's style.

"Your compliments make me feel unspeakably shy." Mariana didn't blush at Prince Liam's compliments, which made Prince Liam frowned, but still maintained a gentlemanly manner. Introducing his younger brother to Mariana: "I still remember that you had many conflicts with Abel when you were young, and even grabbed his hair in front of Queen Mary, and rolled into the pond in the garden with him."

Although Prince Liam said this in a joking tone, neither Prince Abel nor King Obstar believed that Prince Liam said this to shorten the distance between Prince Abel and Mariana.

"Your Highness, I hope you won't remember my most embarrassing appearance." Prince Abel also kissed Mariana's right hand like Prince Liam did, but he didn't show too much enthusiasm for Mariana like his brother: "Thank you Wan God bless your smooth arrival in Obstar, and hope that you will be taken care of here.”

"Thank you for your blessing, and I hope you won't remember my disrespectful behavior when I was young." Mariana's attitude towards Prince Abel was obviously much gentler than that of Prince Liam.

However, when she and Queen Polina met their eyes, their undisguised indifference and disgust almost made the welcome party impossible.

"Dear Mariana, I hope you can feel at home in Obstar." Due to the terrifying eyes of King Obstar, Queen Polina could only speak first without smiling: "I will definitely be like Mother takes care of you like a daughter, please don't refuse my kindness."

"Of course." Mariana would not openly embarrass Queen Polina, but that didn't mean she had to swallow her anger: "As long as you are by my side, I believe that the person who intends to assassinate me will have nowhere to hide."

Queen Polina couldn't help swallowing her saliva, and then secretly glanced at her husband's expression, and found that the latter's eyes were more terrifying than before, so she could only force a smile to Marianne: "I don't think anyone can So bold as to carry out an assassination at Obsta's court."

"I hope so." Mariana glanced at King Obstar's expression, and then gave Queen Polina a knife before leaving: "May you have a good afternoon, ma'am."

Queen Polina was unable to maintain the smile on her face by Mariana's address, and even before Mariana left, she said grimly: "What does she mean? What is her name? Is this stepping on my face in public? ?”

If it weren't for the fact that there were nobles who entered the palace that day in the hall, Queen Polina would definitely be furious.

"Shut up." King Obstar yelled almost through his teeth, and then grabbed Queen Polina's wrist and warned: "Put your claws away, if I find out that you want to hurt Mariana in private Do something, then I don't mind using on you what you're going to use on Mariana."

Queen Polina's eyes widened, and finally she bowed her head in humility and humiliation, showing that she absolutely obeyed the king's orders.

Only then did King Obstar ease his expression, and then he looked at his two sons and a submissive daughter.

"We need weapons from the Principality of Britannia and loans from the Principality of Aquique in our war with Cantero." King Obusta emphasized many times: "So no matter how reluctant you are, or Mariana How much you don't want to deal with you, you all have to have a good relationship with her."

"Especially Liam and Abel." King Obstar looked at the two sons, and his tone was a little more serious than before: "The Pope has sent his son to Mariana, and even Mariana has granted the Pope The title of the Earl of Kent, the son of the king. If this bastard really wins Mariana, then Seis of Cantero may reach a settlement with Mariana under the Pope's matchmaking."

"For us, this is undoubtedly an unimaginable disaster." King Obstar has seen that Odin does not want to strongly support the war between Obstar and Cantero, even if he resorted to the trump card of "dowry" land , and only talked about a marriage contract that did not pass the Odin Council, and even Odin's little emperor has not fulfilled his promise to send troops to support Obsta.

If it weren't for the territorial dispute between Odin and Cantero, King Obstar would have doubted whether he was jumped by the immortals in collaboration with Odin's little emperor and King Cantero.Otherwise, why would he take the risk of offending Grand Duchess Ajikui and snatch his niece's marriage contract?

Thinking of these things now, King Obstar could only go on in the dark except for regret.

"In addition, Odin will also send someone to talk about the marriage contract between the emperor and Innes." After instructing his two sons, King Obstar turned his attention to Innes again.

Compared to Mariana, who is eloquent and hard to fool at first sight, Innes is not only more beautiful, but also has a softer personality than Mariana. She is definitely a good wife and queen candidate.

Perhaps out of dissatisfaction with his mother and Queen Polina, King Obstar intentionally trained Innes to be submissive and weak to his father and brother, even after she was engaged to Odin's little emperor, he deliberately Emphasizes this, reminding Innes not to forget who her supporters are and what she is marrying Emperor Odin for.

"I heard that His Majesty the Emperor of Odin sent his aunt, the Countess of Sarandon, and his cousin Quintus to discuss the wedding date between Innes and Emperor Odin, as well as the follow-up treatment, dowry and bride price amount."

Compared with the tone when he spoke to his two sons, King Obstar's attitude towards Princess Innes was extremely gentle: "You are so beautiful, so gentle... I really can't believe that there are people in this world who are not for you. heart-wrenching man."

After all, King Obstar gently kissed Princess Innes on the forehead, which eased the latter's anxiety just now.

"Prepare well for your meeting with Countess Sarandon. After all, she is the most important female relative of Emperor Odin. Especially after the death of Emperor Odin's tutor, the importance of Countess Sarandon in the court has increased. It’s increasing day by day.”

"Okay, father." Princess Innes bowed to King Obstar and Queen Polina, and then glanced in a certain direction of the hall before leaving.

At a window near the gate, a certain young nobleman with blond hair glanced in the direction of Princess Innes knowingly, then licked his lips, and threw a "You understand" to Princess Innes eyes.

[I wish Odin's emperor could be as handsome as him. 】

When Princess Innes left, she was careful to hide her girlish heart, but she didn't know that her every move was watched by Prince Abel, and then she turned into a fleeting ironic smile.

…………… I am the dividing line………

"Obusta is completely incomparable to the scene when my grandmother was in power." Because Mariana didn't want to live in the palace of Obstar, she rented a mansion belonging to the king in the capital, and then it was only 10 meters away from the palace. [-] minutes by car.

Compared to when Queen Mary was in power, Obsta's capital looked a lot dilapidated, obviously not having enough money to maintain public facilities.

After learning that he was escorting the Duchess of Brittania and the granddaughter of Queen Mary, the elderly coachman also boldly said: "The capital of the king is not bad, you should look at the city near Cantero. The place."

"Except for the Black Forest Castle assigned to you and Bishop Felipe, the Earl of Calda is full of famine and tyranny, and there are even many poor women who will abandon their children in the Grand Duchy of Aquique or the Black Forest Castle nearby, just waiting for the temple nuns in these two places to take away the children of these poor families.”

Speaking of this, the coachman sighed and seemed to resonate: "In this unfair world, no one dares to complain about a job with little money and a lot of work. Because it is better than being starved to death or being The tax bureau came to the door, and living in such a numb manner is the choice of most people at present."

Mariana did not respond to the coachman's words. After all, she was not sure whether she was being monitored by King Obstar, or whether these words were conveyed to her deliberately, so silence is the best response and armed color.
