Chapter 72 That treacherous and wicked woman, Eileen, wants to station troops in the North! [Third Update]
I don't want to at all.
Who would want to meet a nasty woman who brings up her embarrassing moments in a letter?
After reading the letter, Sophia felt that Eileen had only mentioned one important matter.
That is, around the time of the autumn harvest, troops were dispatched to escort a batch of grain to the northern border.
The northern region may indeed need a batch of reserve grain by the end of this year.
The point her elder sister Eileen made in her letter was important. But something about it still felt off to her.
She read it several times, her finger lingering on the sentence "the soldiers who escorted the grain have been settled."
It's right to settle the soldiers who escorted the food, but why does Eileen want them to stay until spring?
It shouldn't snow around the time of the autumn harvest.
If heavy snow closes the mountain passes, the soldiers escorting the grain cannot leave; it's normal to wait until spring when the roads are clearer.
If it doesn't snow, after the food is delivered, we can rest for a few days and leave the North before the snow season arrives. That would be normal, wouldn't it?
garrison?
Does Eileen intend to station troops in the North?!
Then gradually sideline her?
That must be it!
Eileen is such a wicked and insidious woman!
Sophia angrily threw the letter at Anna, "That stinky queen wants to station troops in my territory, that woman is too wicked!"
I thought she'd had a change of heart and genuinely wanted to help me, but it turns out her real purpose was to station troops in the North.
Anna took the letter and quickly glanced through it. Most of the letter was teasing Princess Sophia; only the promise of food and the desire to come to the North seemed genuine.
Princess Eileen also wanted to use the grain delivery as an opportunity to station troops in the North.
She couldn't comment on the matter.
"So, Your Highness is preparing to reject Princess Eileen?"
"Don't refuse, we must take the food. As for the soldiers who deliver the food, just make sure they leave the northern border before the snow season arrives."
Sofia handed the letter to Anna, saying, "Put the letter in my bedroom drawer."
"yes.
Anna put the letter away.
Sophia rose and floated away from the restaurant. Head maid Emily glanced at Sophia as she drifted away, then gently patted Anna. "Don't you think Princess Sophia... seems to have grown up a little bit?"
Anna nodded. "In the past, His Highness certainly wouldn't have thought of the words 'stationing troops'."
"They've developed a sense of territory."
"Yes, and Your Highness's mindset has also undergone a subtle change. When you first came to the Northern Territory, Your Highness had no idea how to govern it."
Now... Her Highness seems to have a general idea in mind; she wants the Northern Territory to get better and better.
Emily nodded. In order to develop the North, they would have to set up caravans.
"You go ahead with your work. Once you're done, just go to the garden to find His Highness."
"Um.
""
Anna left the restaurant and went to the garden.
She saw Princess Eileen's knight Rex follow Princess Sophia into the garden.
Anna had just stepped out of the main hall when she saw Aston, Grace, Dalton, and two other people she didn't recognize arrive at the castle.
The dark-skinned Minister Connor stood behind them.
"Good morning, Knight Anna."
"Good morning, who are you?"
"The members of the Fairy Tale Mercenary Group, my and Grace's friends, Princess Sophia met them yesterday."
Anna nodded. "If Your Highness has seen those two people, then there's nothing to worry about."
The main problem was that the bald, one-eyed, muscular man was too tall; he was about 2.3 meters tall.
Her fist was as big as a clay pot, so she had to ask.
"His Highness is in the garden; please follow me."
Rex, who was following behind Sophia, stopped and turned to look at the group of people walking towards the garden.
He thinks he just heard someone mention the "Fairy Tale Mercenary Group".
How come the tenth-ranked mercenary group in the kingdom is in the North?
Did he hear wrongly?
While Rex hesitated, Anna, Aston, Dalton, Grace, Xavier, and Vivian came to his side.
Aston and Grace glanced at Rex curiously and nodded at him in a friendly manner.
Sofia was holding a watering can, floating around watering the flowers and plants.
Don't say that forgetting to float is a curse; the feeling of constantly floating in the air like this is not bad, it's very convenient.
"Good morning, Your Highness."
"Why are you all here? Oh? What are you two doing here too?"
When Sophia saw the bald, one-eyed strong man and Vivian, she looked surprised. They had come to her again to buy the sap of the Life Energy Tree.
"Your Highness, these two are members of the Fairy Tale Mercenary Group. The guy next to me, who's stronger than an ox, is called Xavier, the captain of the Grey Wolf Squad of the Fairy Tale Mercenary Group."
Her name is Vivian, the captain of the Red Hat Squad.
Grace introduced Xavier and Vivian to Sophia.
"Oh, so you and Aston were former partners." Sophia smiled. "What brings you two to see me today?"
"we would like..."
"Your Highness, who is this gentleman?"
Grace interrupted Xavier, unsure whether Sophia would be willing to let this young knight she had never met know about the existence of the Life Essence.
"He is a knight of the Flower Language Plains Hundred Flowers Caravan, and also a knight under my elder sister Eileen."
Rex placed his right hand on his chest, smiled, and bowed to Aston, Grace, and the others.
He hadn't misheard; the members of the Fairy Tale Mercenary Group, ranked tenth in the kingdom, had indeed appeared in the Northern Territory.
The information Princess Eileen gave him was completely inaccurate.
To say that Princess Sophia has few followers is ridiculous. The members of the Fairy Tale Mercenary Group have all appeared in the Northern Territory and started to make contact with Princess Sophia. Does that mean she has few followers?
If the tenth-ranked Fairy Tale Mercenary Group in the kingdom were willing to serve Princess Sophia.
What will Princess Eileen's reaction be if she finds out?
No, we must inform Princess Eileen of all the information he has gathered.
Grace's eyes widened in surprise; it was actually a knight loyal to Princess Irene.
That day, while chatting with Emily, she mentioned that Princess Irene was Princess Sophia's perceived enemy.
Because Princess Sophia wants to be the Queen of the Kingdom of Roland.
"The Fairy Tale Mercenary Group wishes to cooperate with Your Highness."
Upon hearing this, and seeing the look in Grace's eyes, Rex placed his right hand on his chest and bowed to Sophia. "Since Your Highness has something to discuss with the members of the Fairy Tale Mercenary Group, I won't disturb you any longer."
"If Your Highness Sophia replies to Princess Irene, please have someone inform me at the Silver Moon Hotel to come over."
"it is good."
Rex turned and left the garden.
I should go back and write down the changes in Princess Sophia and the cooperation with the Fairy Tale Mercenary Group.
"How does the Fairy Tale Mercenary Group want to cooperate with me?"
Sophia asked curiously.
Vivian stepped forward, glanced at Sophia floating in the air, and smiled, "Our Fairy Tale Mercenary Group will introduce customers to Her Highness Sophia and help her sell the Life Essence. In return, Her Highness Sophia only needs to agree to one small condition."
"What are the conditions?"
"Our Fairy Tale Mercenary Group has the right of first refusal to purchase the Life Essence. Of course, Your Highness can rest assured that we will pay the market price."
Furthermore, if Your Highness agrees, our Fairy Tale Mercenary Group can also open a branch in the Northern Territory.
