Chapter 61 The abacus of the little fox
Section 61 The Little Fox’s Abacus (Second Update)
The Castle of Tuwaben attracted unexpected guests, which Schwab and Prince Masimilk expected. After attending the banquet for the winning knights, Philip of the Kingdom of Bru, he flirted with young ladies everywhere in the castle. The ladies showed great interest in this romantic knight of the Kingdom of Bru. When the moment of flattery was full of admiration, it was also the time when people were the least alert. Many information about the royal family and the kingdom came into Prince Philip's ears from the mouths of these women.
"Dear Mrs. Farima, your appearance is like a bright moon, illuminating my heart." Philip's sweet words were like a drug, making a bauble infatuated. She giggled and let Philip hold his little hand on his lips.
"Oh, heroic knight, you must be the most talkative knight in the Kingdom of Bru. Your handsomeness is like the white rose at the window of my room." The Baroness secretly hinted at Philip's location in the room. Philip blinked his eyes with great understanding. In order to show his love for Philip, the Baroness took off the gold necklace from his neck and put his hand in Philip's palm. Giving gifts to the favorite knight is the habit of the noble ladies and a way for the knight to obtain funds. Philip accepted it with a smile.
"Your Highness, why do you give up the banquet for such an ordinary woman?" After the Baroness left, the Duke of Butale complained to Prince Philip.
"Don't you understand, do you know who that woman is? She is the nurse of Prince Masimilk." Prince Philip sat on a wooden chair and placed his legs on the low table next to him. His ungraceful appearance made the Duke of Butale frown.
"Oh, I heard in the servant room that the prince's nurse actually had an affair with the king. Could it be him?" The Duke of Butale looked curiously, and the Baroness who was walking through the window and kept looking back. Looking at the woman's swaying plump buttocks, she was really a coquettish woman.
"Yes, it's her."
"Then are you going to get some insider information from her?"
"It can be said yes, or not." Prince Philip reached out and fiddled with a string of vines falling from the window.
"What does it mean? Your Highness."
"I seemed to learn from this nurse that she was very hostile to Princess Sophia."
"Yeah, women's jealousy is normal." The Duke of Butale did not comment. Such a woman who dared to have an affair with the king certainly had a vicious heart.
"Look, my friend, you have no keen sense of smell, and the court of King Pumbrus was hostile to the princess from Bergend, which was very subtle intelligence, if the Duke of Bergend knew, guess what he would do."
"No one will believe that Duke Bergend will not damage his relationship with the royal family because of rumors."
"That's right, but it can create a rift between them, haha." Prince Philip showed a fox-like smile. Conspiracy and tricks were the prince's usual tricks, and people were always confused by his handsome appearance.
"Then you can weaken the strength of the Kingdom of Pumbruce, is that right?"
"That's right, by the way, please help me check a nobleman named Schwab from the northern territory." Prince Philip suddenly said to the Duke of Butale. Fortunately, the Duke had long been used to the jumping thinking of his friends.
"Who? Schwab, such a strange name, it looks like the name of the nobles in the border areas." The Duke of Butalee shrugged and walked out of the prince's room.
"It seems that Prince Masimilk is planning something with Schwab? What exactly is it?" Prince Philip lay comfortably on the bed and murmured to himself.
In the evening, the Duke of Butale returned to Prince Philip's room. When he pushed open the door, he saw the prince hugging with a beautiful young maid. They kissed him completely forgot to do so. Until the Duke of Butale coughed a few times, he stopped. Prince Philip put his hand on the maid's plump breast without caring. When the maid saw Philip's servant coming back, he quickly jumped out of the prince and pushed his hand away, blushing and walking out.
"Baby has a chance to continue next time." Prince Philip flew to the maid, and the maid ran away with laughter.
"My Highness, don't you think it's too much?" complained the Duke of Butale, after all, was still the ruler of a principality, and Prince Philip actually teased the women in front of him.
"Have you found out?" Prince Philip picked up the wine glass placed on the low table, full of ale, and he moistened his thirsty lips with the wine.
"I found out that Schwab was a vassal of Duke Hanrowe, whose fief was Stedetin. In addition, he was also the lord of the territory of Mark. He was named Earl because he performed well in the war with the Ruvids and exposed the rebellion of Yas, the brother-in-law of Duke Hanrowe."
"Wait, you mean he is a vassal of Duke Han Ruowei. This is really strange. A northern lord serves in the royal family. Ah, I understand. It must have been exposed by Duke Han Ruowei's younger brother, which angered the Duchess so he couldn't gain a foothold, so he found the royal family. Tsk, Schwab really has a way." Prince Philip took a sip of wine and thought he was correct in his opinion, but his consideration was very consistent with the facts. It is impossible not to say that the prince of the Bru Kingdom was extremely smart.
"He is currently appointed as a royal advisor by Prince Masimilke and a general who was appointed as a crusade by King Pumbrus."
"The Lowland Territory Crusade? So they have an army? But whose army is there?"
"It's the army of this Earl of Schwab." The Duke of Butale used all his connections to find out, but he was constantly interrupted by Prince Philip and was very helpless.
"How many knights does an earl have?"
"Earl, how many knights do you think he has?" asked the Duke of Butale.
"There should be only a few hundred knights at most. With light and heavy infantry and cavalry, there are up to a thousand people. A county can only bear so much force." Prince Philip converted in his mind and answered affirmatively.
"No, my Highness, he has five thousand people, which were witnessed by all the people from Fort Tuwaben a few days ago."
