Section 218 Crisis

The Earl of Champagne stood on the watchtower of the castle, and his eyes were in the direction of the Duchy of Burgundy. Behind him was the Earl's court spy leader, who seemed to be reporting something to the Earl.

"Enough, don't tell me your plans anymore. I only have one thing." Suddenly, the Earl of Champagne interrupted his words without any hesitation. The Earl's tone was quick and decisive.

"What is it?" asked the spy leader in confusion.

"I only have the head of the Duke of Burgundy." Earl of Champagne turned his head gritted and said to his minister.

"Don't worry, my monarch. If the Duke was in the heavily guarded castle, our spies could not do anything, but now that they were carelessly walking out of the castle, you will definitely hear the Duke's obituary." The spy leader straightened his back and assured the Earl of Champagne.

"This bastard, Yuge, dares to castrate my son, I must not spare him." The Earl of Champagne clenched his fists. Francis was his most valued heir. His marriage with the Princess of Burgundy increased Francis' reputation in Champagne a lot. If they could have a normal birth of offspring, they could inherit the Earl of Champagne and the Principality of Burgundy at the same time, but now everything has gone to nothing.

The Duke of Burgundy did not seem to know that a spy was lurking into the forest. He and his family were enjoying a pleasant hunting activity. The young nobles chased their respective prey in the forest. In order to compete for the first place, they would even compete with each other. Some harmless horse-riding fights are inevitable.

"Hey, Laurie Ferdinand, where are you?" A nobleman wearing a red and white feathered hat rode a horse and his hound. A bunch of rabbits hung on one side of his mount. It seemed that although he had not hit big animals such as bears, he had gained a lot, but he was inadvertently separated from his servant. His other companion also lost his trace.

"Woom." At this time, the noble's hunting dog barked at the bushes and roared from time to time. The noble quickly put the bow and arrow on, and he kicked the mount with his heels and walked towards the bushes.

"Qifeng, what did you see? Is it a bear?" the nobleman said to his beloved dog curiously.

"Swish swish." Suddenly, a stag's head was revealed in the bushes. The nobleman breathed a sigh of relief. As long as it was not a ferocious beast, he could deal with it alone.

"Hey, baby, come here, I will treat you well." After a sigh of relief, the noble couldn't help but feel happy. If he could kill this stag, even if he didn't hunt a bear, it would be enough to show his face in front of the duke.

"Crack." The nobleman jumped off the horse, and he bent down carefully and walked forward. With the sound of the bowstring pulling open, he aimed at the stag that was like a tree branch.

"Swoosh." Suddenly, the stag man hidden in the bushes stood up. The nobles were so scared that they forgot to shoot arrows. A sound of breaking through the air sounded.

"Oh woo." I saw a crossbow arrow nailing straight to the noble's throat. Blood spurted out from the noble's mouth, and the bow arrow in his hand fell to the ground, unable to help but reach out to cover the throat. Blood flowed down his throat, and the noble's mouth made a terrible sound of drinking.

"Brush." ​​The stag walked out of the bushes. At this time, the nobles discovered that it was actually a man wearing a deer head disguised as a deer, holding a crossbow in his hand.

"Fix him." Several men tied with green grass came out of the woods, one of the big men ordered the man disguised as a deer.

"Yes." The man disguised as a deer pulled out the dagger at his waist, strode over, grabbed the noble's head and shook it a few times, and slashed it with the dagger.

"Wow." Before the noble dog could scream, he was shot by the crossbow in the hand of the man, and a whimpering sound came from his mouth and fell into a pool of blood.

"The Duke is in the open space." The man who was smearing his eyes with charcoal ash said to the leader.

"Around it, the Count ordered him to be killed." The leader reached out and waved his hand to the left and right. A brush sounded from the grass on both sides of the woods.

Looking at the bright red wine, his thoughts had already floated far away and came to the Principality of Burgundy to design and prepare funds. On the one hand, he really thought he was more confident in his own operation. On the other hand, the reason was hidden in Arod's heart, that was Princess Josie's misunderstanding of him, which made Arod feel a little depressed.

"Arod, what are you thinking?" Harvey was wearing a brown long dress. At this time, as Arrod's "wife", she also got the opportunity to attend and was also mingling among the noble ladies, but Harvey was obviously not used to that atmosphere.

"How are our matters arranged?" Arod looked around with a wine glass, and when no one noticed it, he said to Harvey.

"After the arrangement, the money box and Miss Shirley have already arrived in the carriage and left first under the arrangement of the Brotherhood. When the nobles return with their prey, we can take the opportunity to leave." Harvey said to Arod.

"Yes, it's time for us to leave. The spy leader of the Duke of Burgundy is already suspicious of me. If we don't leave, we may have an accident. Fortunately, there is cover for this hunt." Arod nodded with satisfaction. Harvey was his proud spy leader, and she was really neat in her work.

"However, when it comes to that guy Green, he did send some people to follow us." Harvey gently closed his hair with his hands and said to Arod.

"Oh?" Arod's brow frowned, and his eyes couldn't help but look at the Duke of Burgundy. Green, who was talking to another courtier of the Duke of Burgundy, seemed to feel Arod's gaze. He turned his head and smiled at Arod.

"Don't worry, our people have been brought down by us, haha." Harvey reached out to cover his lips. The Burgundy spies were really vulnerable.

You should know that the members of the Blood Drop Brotherhood are all trained by Harvey, which is completely a cold competition model and an elimination system. Every member of the Brotherhood knows that staying in the Brotherhood, he and his family can get the best care in Mecklenburg, so they have to work hard to train themselves. In contrast, the Burgundian spies are just young masters or villains.

"It's really strange." Aroud said to Harvey.

"What's wrong?" Harvey asked.

"The hunting time has been too long, right?" Aruod said with some surprise.

"What's so strange about this? Who doesn't know that the Duke is recruiting son-in-law. The young nobles are all full of energy and are as aggressive as the male deer in the estrus." Harvey said.

"But it's too strange that no one came back." Arod felt a little wrong. Harvey was also alert at Arod's reminder. They looked at the surrounding woods and instinctively noticed the dangerous aura, which was cultivated by people who fought all year round on the battlefield, while Burgundian nobles were unaware of the pleasure in the camp.
