Chapter 111 Earl Grace

"Sir, the lady has brought it."

"Go down."

After General Granger sent away the maid, he looked at Annick and Annick up and down.

"What, the rebellious period is over?"

Matthew didn't know what to reply and could only reply with one word: "Yeah."

Granger, who was just about to preach, suddenly ran out of words. Seeing this, the princess sitting on the main seat interrupted.

"Miss Emma, ​​right? Congratulations on your successful engagement ceremony. I didn't expect to be able to attend an engagement ceremony this time in Eggsburg."

Annick poked Ma Xiu in the back, and Ma Xiu hurriedly saluted the princess.

"You don't have to be so polite, General, by the way, that's the man."

The princess with a crown on her head and a smiling face took the initiative to take up the topic, and General Granger's attention was also attracted. Annick and Annick could only stand obediently behind the general.

When the general heard this, he said proudly:

"The father of the young lady behind me, Viscount Calvin, who was introduced by Earl Grace, is already a rising political star in Lumang. Of course, compared with Her Royal Highness the Princess's political wisdom, there is a difference between stars and the sun."

When Elizabeth heard this, she spent about two seconds thinking, and then said with a smile: "Viscount Calvin, I know that the Whig Party's second youngest member of the House of Lords has been very popular recently, except for his personal feelings.

Besides, I have a good impression of this gentleman."

Does this imply that the future betrothed's private life is chaotic? However, in Bruguet, the chaotic private life of a nobleman is not a particularly bad thing.

"It's a great honor to be recognized by Her Royal Highness the Princess. Unfortunately, Viscount Calvin is still on the way. The train will arrive at Eggsburg at four o'clock in the afternoon."

General Granger didn't care about this. In his opinion, this marriage, with one of the youngest members of Congress in history, would definitely bring Emma stable happiness for the rest of her life.

The effects of high status and authority: On the one hand, Annick and his wife felt that they were being stared at by hundreds of people. On the other hand, it was true that people without a certain status did not dare to come and talk to the princess and the others. During this period, there were constantly large nobles or high-ranking councilors.

Congratulations to General Granger who came in and brought a gift.

The general simply didn't sit down and stood directly at the door like a doorman welcoming guests.

"My old friend, the relationship between us has become even deeper."

A middle-aged man wearing a black dress, a top hat, a diamond-encrusted cane, and a monocle walked in and hugged General Granger. The manservant who followed him held a

A red gift box.

"Grace, you are so strong. I didn't know you were going to hold an engagement ceremony for Scarlett today."

After finishing the courtesy, General Granger asked someone to take the gift.

"Here, you can take my seat. Anyway, I don't have time to sit now."

General Granger pointed to his empty seat and arranged for Earl Grace to sit down.

"Okay, I'll talk to the old man Bishop. He has retired. Will it be my turn to be the Speaker?"

After Earl Grace sat down, he turned his head and said to Annick.

"Look, Emma will be your sister-in-law from now on. If you really can't live without her, you can live in Lumang."

"Um."

Annick tried his best to lower his voice and just nodded his head.

"Who are you talking about, old man? Grace, you are only three years younger than me. Why do you want to be the speaker? I have no problem. You can persuade Dui to go. He gave up his position to me. He is still here.

Eggsburg has no intention of going to the Lords of Rumang to retire. Perhaps gaining his consent will help your ambitions come true sooner."

Bishop said nonchalantly, he seemed more interested in going to the House of Lords.

"If that doesn't work, I will marry our Scarlett to their son. They are both only children, and our family will not be considered a loser."

The deals and plans between the political animals were always there, but Annick had a hunch and was really not interested in participating in the topics between them.

Among the crowd, the black shadow demigod kept his eyes closed and sat motionless on the sofa. If it hadn't been for one minute of breathing, Annick would have thought that there was a real puppet sitting on the sofa.

"Senior, time."

Matthew said this into his ear, and Annick looked at his pocket watch. The potion was only effective for less than ten minutes.

He had to find a reason to sneak back, Annick rolled his eyes.

Then he took a deep breath, closed his eyes tightly, hugged his stomach tightly with his arms, and kept sweat on his head.

"Scarlett what's wrong with you?"

Ma Xiu naturally understood what he meant, and hurriedly asked pretending to be concerned.

"pain."

Annick only said this weakly, and then continued to lower his head and pretend.

"What's wrong, Miss Scarlett, why don't you go and take a rest."

Princess Elizabeth seemed to notice the abnormality here and said with concern.

"Thank you princess, I'll help Scarlett go to the room to rest for a while."

After Matthew finished speaking, he put Annick's hand on his arm and prepared to turn around and leave.

"Wait a moment."

The words of the black shadow demigod suddenly came from behind, coldly and without emotion.

This won't reveal the truth, right? Although the transformation potion is very effective, it's hard to say whether it can be hidden in front of a demigod.

Annick and Annick were stunned at the edge of the sofa. Annick could even hear Mashu's thumping heartbeat.

"Here, take this bottle of potion, it will relieve the pain."

The shadow still didn't open his eyes and handed over a bottle of red potion.

"Thank you, Lord Demigod."

Matthew took the potion and then continued to support Annick back to the second floor. The two maids naturally followed behind.

Back in the room, Annick closed the door and slammed the latch firmly.

Emma said through them: "You guys wait outside and notify us when Viscount Calvin arrives."

"I understand, miss."

After Emma finished speaking, Annick felt his face heat up and his body became itchy.

This was the expiration date of the potion. When I looked at Mashu, her appearance gradually changed back to her original appearance.

"It was almost over. Fortunately, we escaped quickly. The next step was to change our clothes and sneak out."

After Annick finished complaining, he directly unbuttoned his evening dress. It was obvious that Matthew trusted him and knew that he would not do anything strange.

"Do you need help? Senior, I see your neck is being strangled."

"Please help me pull down my sleeves. It's really troublesome to take them off."

Annick complained that this one-piece dress is more simple than a jacket that you can unbutton and take off by yourself.

After struggling to take off his clothes, Annick was left with just his shirt and felt freezing to death.

"How to deal with this thing?"

Annick looked at this evening dress and was worried. It would be a pity to burn it. This room is not easy to hide clothes.

"Just put it in the closet. Anyway, it's not weird no matter how many girls' dresses they have."
