Chapter 6 Mary (3)

"King of Sweden? What are you talking about?"

The son of the Duke of Normandy rushed over on a horse in a panic, obviously frightened by Ella's words.

"What is the daughter of the Duke of Aquitaine? What engagement? Why don't I know at all?"

Ella twisted her head back as if nothing had happened: "Duke Aquitaine must have a daughter, right? Didn't it be? That's okay. Since this little baron on the border doesn't know you, he may not know whether the Duke Aquitaine has a daughter..."

"He has a daughter! Only daughter! Twelve years old! But the problem isn't it?" The son of the Duke of Normandy was going crazy. "When did he say he wanted to engage his daughter? Or was he a little baron of low status?"

"What's the problem? I'm only twelve years old and I'm still four years away from adulthood. Get engaged first. When they remember to get married, I'm definitely no longer in Almany Federation..."

"So, the question is not how old she is! Are you lying to others like this? Will it cause great trouble to others, right?"

"Ha? The Duke of Aquitaine sent someone to assassinate your father, and are you still worried about causing trouble for him?"

The son of the Duke of Normandy was speechless for a moment.

While speaking, the people in the manor also made movements. The local baron hurriedly ran out with his family. He saw Hestein and the pirates, and was shocked. He thought he had a bad idea. He saw the Aztlanders in strange clothes. A girl led by the head was holding a pendant that looked like a token of a family. She couldn't help but feel confused again, and couldn't figure out what kind of ways these people were. When she saw the son of the Duke of Normandy and the knights behind him, she felt relieved and greeted them with a smile: "Where did you... come from?"

"We are sent by the Duke of Noahquitan! He heard that your son is talented, skilled, handsome, young and promising, and specially sent us to ask if he wanted to get engaged to his daughter!"

While speaking, Ella pressed the pendant in her hand hard toward the Baron's face, fearing that they would not see it.

But the Baron's family was stunned: "Our son... have you found the wrong person? Or have you heard some strange rumors?"

"Dad, what are you doing?"

A little boy with a snot swayed out from the inside, looking less than five years old. A maid hurriedly ran over from behind to pick him up, wiped the snot on his face, and then apologized to the Baron.

With a "puff", even Hestein couldn't help laughing behind him.

But Ella was not stunned at all. She just turned her eyes and lies at will: "Actually, the Duke sent me to tour the Federation of Almany to find young and promising heirs in the Barons' leadership! Since the rumors are wrong, let's say goodbye for the time being..."

"No! Wait a moment!"

The Baron's family hurriedly surrounded them, and they smiled all over their faces, and held Ella's hand enthusiastically:

"Although the dog is still young, he will always grow up one day. He has been smart since he was a child and will definitely make great achievements in the future. Don't talk about this! This place is very remote. Since you have come here, can we, as masters, still see if you can leave? Come on, come in and talk. Hello - ask the chef to prepare some food and bring out all the good things stored in our warehouse!"

"You are pretty good at it!" Ella patted the Baron's shoulder generously, "Let's go, let's go to the dining table and say!"

Hestein's face twitched. He slowly turned his head and asked Amy beside him: "How did your Scipio learn this?"

"I think I probably learned it from her swordsman..."

Amy did not recover from the shock. After answering Hestein's question, she slowly turned her head and whispered to the son of the Duke of Normandy:

"The Duke's daughter is looking for the baron to marry into a baron. You nobles really believe such an obvious lie?"

"There is no way, one is the pendant, which is indeed of great significance. And almost everyone in the entire Federation knows that the Duke of Aquitaine only has one only daughter, which means that she will likely inherit the territory in the future... For the sake of the continuation of the family, the Duke of Aquitaine will seek a noble to marry into the family. A powerful nobleman is unlikely to accept the conditions for marrying into the family, so it is reasonable to come to find a baron. The Duke of Aquitaine is the most powerful prince in the current Federation. To inherit his territory, the temptation is too great for such a little baron. But..."

The son of the Duke of Normandy said with a sad face:

"You will not be in the Almani Federation in four years, but will they recognize me? When someone recognizes my face, wouldn't it be that I came here to cheat food and drink in the name of the Duke of Aquitaine?"

"Then don't go inside outside." Hestein skillfully found a tree shade and sat down, unscrewed the wine pot, "Showing less, this matter has nothing to do with you."

Of course, Ella couldn't hear any of these comments. She took the group of people from Aztlan in high spirits and ate at the dining table.

The local baron rushed to pour her wine.

"Come on, try it, it's all made of local grapes and it tastes very good. In recent years, the nearby territory has been so prosperous under the governance of our family..."

"You guys did it well! You did it well!"

Ella continued to chew the meat while absent-mindedly praising the baron.

"Come on, bring the young master here!" The Baroness waved her hand, "This child has been unusual since she was a child. When she was in the cradle, she also strangled a snake that had climbed into its cradle with her hands!"

"I know!" Ella drank the wine that the Baron had poured him, and then burped with satisfaction. "Did you find that he could talk to the birds? Did you get lost while hunting outside, and at night, you found that he was surrounded by beasts and sent back?"

The Baron's wife was stunned for a moment: "You've heard of this... have you heard of it?"

"Of course I have heard of it! My master told me this story. He heard it in the Central Asian prairie a few years ago. The stories of your son have been spread to Asia!"

The Baron's family immediately showed an awkward smile on their faces.

Ella had enough food and drank, touching her belly with satisfaction. Of course she knew the story of the Baroness in school. It was not what she heard from Dust, but she saw it herself from the Royal Library of the Qiqiu Empire. Taking this opportunity to vaguely reject the engagement, she could find the next baron and marry the daughter of the Duke of Aquitaine again.

"Your son Duke Aquitaine will consider it." She stood up and stretched, "I will set out for the next baron tomorrow morning. Let's take a break today. Where is my room?"
