This is a small yard. There are only two rooms and a concierge in the yard. After they were admitted to the hospital, they hurried into the main room in the center of the hospital.

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

"Miss, young master, he still refused us." The man in the cloak behind also showed his true face. He was an old man of 50 or 60 years old with wrinkles on his face. He looked like the woman's servant.

"Alas, he can't protect himself. How can he send troops to escort my wife and me?" The beautiful woman said, "Raffi, go and get Christine a bowl of soup." The woman gently touched the head of the little girl in her arms, put her on the next chair and ordered the maid who had just entered the door behind her.

"Miss, there is almost no surplus food at home." The little maid looked down and said. The woman was surprised and asked, "didn't I just pawn my earrings and bracelets? Isn't the money enough for these two meals?"

"Madam, the price of food in the city has gone up again, and it's hard to buy things with money." Raffi explained in a low voice.

"Forget it, just as long as you can support it. It's really not good..." the woman touched the sapphire necklace between her neck. This is her last jewelry and the most precious one.

The maid was ordered to bring soup to the little girl. A bowl of plain noodle soup was the only food in the family. The woman and the two servants didn't eat. They could stand it, but the sick little girl couldn't. The two servants seemed to be strict tutors. Although they didn't eat, they didn't show anything. The old servant consciously went to the porter to watch the night, and the maid went back to the room to rest under the woman's sign.

The woman took the spoon and carefully fed the little girl. The little girl sat on the chair without making any noise. She just drank the soup fed by the woman. The little girl narrowed her eyes and drank it slowly, as if she were enjoying some delicious food. "Sister-in-law, you drink too." The little girl's voice is very waxy, which may be the reason for her illness. Her little face is slightly red, revealing a lovely feeling.

"My aunt has drunk, and little Christine has drunk. She's better and faster." The woman showed a kind look.

"Well, so fast!" The little girl nodded heavily.

"Aunt also drink ~" at night, there was a little girl's voice.

The woman's name is grace. She is not an ordinary woman, but the daughter of a marquis. She is also a famous beauty in the kingdom of Charlotte. Her father is Marquis Philip, one of the three marques of Charlotte. As the beloved daughter of the Marquis, she is the Pearl of the imperial capital and the flower of the kingdom.

But she was just an ordinary woman, a woman who was going to 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. Besides, money may not be able to find a doctor now. Doctors will be forced to enlist in the army in wartime. Now it's time for the survival of the kingdom. I'm afraid only those lords with heavy soldiers have doctors, For example, her brother Willis, now the Lord of Flanders.

Grace took care of the little girl. After she fell asleep in bed, she sat quietly by the bed. Tonight is a cloudy night. There is no moonlight and it is dark, just like her heart. She couldn't help thinking of her father, the famous Marquis Philip.

Charlotte has three provinces, corresponding to three marques, namely, marquis Philip, marquis Campbell and Marquis Clark. The three marques are in charge of the three provinces to defend the kingdom. Up to now, there are only two marques left in the kingdom. Marquis Clark died in a bloody battle with the enemy in Gordon heights, Marquis Philip and Marquis Campbell are now stationed in entel and Ellis under the king's orders.

A month ago that night, her father called her to meet and told her to pack up and take her eldest brother's daughter to her brother Willis. "It's time for the kingdom to live and die this time." Marquis Philip, who was once energetic, is now just a bad old man with white hair, "You quickly take Christine to find your brother Willis. His territory is very close to the Murphy forest. You ask him to borrow troops to protect you across the Murphy forest to the Karaman Kingdom opposite. I also have some manors over there. You can eat and wear there in the future." Marquis Philip's warning is still vivid, "remember, don't come back. The royal family is staring at our family and won't let them escape. The men in the family have no chance. Only you and Christine are allowed to leave. You have to live for the blood of the Philip family!"

Grace took Christine under the protection of more than ten guards to go to his brother, who has not been valued. Maybe he was treated coldly and despised too much when he was young. His brother, born by his father and a maid in the family, didn't have a good impression of himself and Christine, and even transferred his guards to defend the city. He just arranged himself in a yard and stopped talking to him.

"Willis wants a map across the Murphy forest and the property of the kalaman Kingdom estate." As Wang Du's famous socialite, grace can certainly find out his brother's intention. There was nothing wrong with everyone leaving together at that time, but his attitude seems to want to leave them alone.

Fortunately, many people in the army in the city knew her, the daughter of the owner of the house. Willis didn't dare to be blatant and could only adopt this way of house arrest.

Little Christine fell asleep quietly. Grace covered her quilt horn and lay next to her, but she couldn't sleep. She didn't eat with her maid Raffi and the housekeeper all day. Today, she just ate two cakes when she met her brother in the city master's house at noon. Willis was trying to force them into a desperate situation.

Just as grace forced herself to sleep to avoid hunger, there were bursts of noise and crying outside. And it got worse and worse, as if the city was in chaos all at once. "What's going on?" Grace opened the door and looked out.

"Miss, no, the army of the kingdom of foster has besieged the city!" The old housekeeper's frightened voice came, "no, let's go quickly, before we completely surround the city." The old housekeeper hurried.

Grace immediately went back to her room, picked up Christine, who was still awake, and fled with the old housekeeper and maid. All the people living in this place are rich and powerful. At least it's the right direction to escape with these people. It's too late. I can only fight to the death. The old housekeeper and maid are self-cultivation and fighting spirit. I hope they can take them out of the Murphy forest.

Outside the city, Baron kaiduoqi and Baron Kashgar sat around the campfire, seemingly baking a pheasant. "This guy was caught by my guard Harvey. Baron kaiduoqi, you are blessed tonight." The Baron of Kashgar joked.

"It's my pleasure to have something baked by Baron Kashgar." Baron ketozzi said modestly.

The soldiers around them marched quickly. They had discussed on the road before. They still used the previous method to surround three and lack one. Baron kaiduoqi blocked one city gate and Baron Kashgar blocked two city gates, leaving one city gate empty, leaving a way back for Frans city.

The reason for doing so is to prevent the city of Frans from fighting back and give them hope. They will not leave all their strength to fight with them, and the gate left is not so easy to run. Baron kaiduoqi's cavalry squadron will stay at the gate and wait for them. The task of the cavalry squadron is to intercept fleeing businessmen and nobles. These talents are fat, Knight will, with high-ranking Knight attendants, was stationed, and both of them were relieved.

When the pheasants on the campfire were roasted, the siege was over. Nearly a thousand soldiers circled the periphery of the small town twice. Even a squadron of Baron Kashgar was stationed at the north gate, which gave the way back to Frans.

The soldiers were ordered by their officers to replenish food and maintain their spirit. They surrounded but did not attack tonight, mainly to overcome the resistance consciousness of the sherlo people. Moreover, the troops also need to be adjusted for a day of rapid march. Everyone received the news and began to attack the city in the early morning of tomorrow.

Locke is now at the west gate. This is their battalion responsible for attacking the en gate. I don't know what deal Baron and Baron Kashgar have. In short, which one invades the city first, and the squadron that enters the city first will get rich rewards.

Tomorrow, the third squadron will try to attack the city first and check the defensive strength of the city gate. Then the first and second squadrons will go together. This is an important play. Generally, it will be decided with a hammer. This is only a small city. The cities won before do so. Their squadron is in the third batch, mainly to clean up the mess.

Tomorrow's mission seems to be easier than others. Locke breathed a sigh of relief. To tell the truth, although he has been a soldier for four years and has seen countless blood and flames, Locke still has great awe of death. Can obtain the task with the lowest risk, although there is little oil and water, Locke is also very satisfied. There is hope only when he is alive.

Yesterday, I saw a Japanese film, "the bottom Spice Girl", which was moved by the plot. I have to study like shayega for a period of time, otherwise I won't have the face to meet all readers when I hang up at the end of the term...
