In the late night in the imperial capital, it was already very unusual for more than a dozen people to travel in big bags. There were many nobles in particular, which means that there must be big problems.
Earl Morris has been a veteran of the imperial political arena for many years. The failure of political struggle is something that people like them who walk the tightrope by the monarch for many years must consider at all times, but he did not expect that the attacks of political enemies would come so quickly. If it weren't for the warning from the insiders in the palace, their family would not have even prepared for half a day this afternoon, and they would have to be held in prison for all the guards to the evening.
The dozen people on the way were the family of Earl Morris. Yesterday, the Count had never thought that the streets that were usually strolling in the garden would make him feel nervous and crazy tonight, as if the person who appeared at the next street corner would immediately show his weapons and arrest his family. Any movement would suddenly change his heartbeat speed. I wonder when the exit of this huge maze would arrive.
Fortunately, the imperial capital of the empire was built on the inside of a bay, so when the count received the news from His Majesty that he would clear himself, he immediately asked his confidant to arrange a cargo ship to wait somewhere in the bay. In order not to be discovered, the ship could not be allowed to lean on the dock. So the problem now is how to send more than a dozen people of people of this family onto the ship.
Fortunately, the capital is built on the river, so even if the dock is now blocked, they can still find out whether there are small boats on the wide moat. This is their last chance to escape. As long as they can go to the sea, it will be safe. After all, he believes that it is not important enough to require the emperor to dispatch the imperial fleet to pursue it.
But for Morris, the speed of escape is much slower than he thought, and there is no way. First, the woman in the family is usually pampered and generous, and it is indeed a bit reluctant to go on such a journey. Second, his wife insists on taking all her valuable property away.
Originally, as I wanted, I just wanted to bring some light rings, necklaces, gems, etc., but my greedy wife must take all the gold nuggets, which greatly slowed down the original progress.
Seeing the three male servants carrying gold nuggets so tired that they could not keep up with the team, Morris thought that even if they ran away with gold, they might not care about it.
Just as the count's spirit had reached its peak, the wide moat finally appeared in front of everyone.
When the city was built, it was probably because of confidence in the military strength of the capital and the width and depth of the river. The entire capital did not build a city wall along the river channel, so the river transportation trade was quite good. At any time, there were various ships of all sizes on the river surface. The Earl had complained before that there were too many ships on the beautiful river surface, which affected the viewing of the river surface. I hope that all the ships would disappear one day.
However, ironically, his wish was finally fulfilled on the last night he was about to leave here. The river surface in front of him was empty, let alone the boat, there was not even a water bird. In addition to the ripples blown by the night wind, people could also recognize the soberness of reality. The count's mood at this moment was as desperate as this suffocating river surface. If it weren't for his majesty, he would have kneeled to the ground long ago.
Normally, even at night, some small boats will light a fire for short-distance transportation. At this moment, this abnormal situation is obviously done by the political enemy. I didn't expect the other party to do so. At this time, the women in the family have started to cry, and the servants have also started to get a commotion. If the pursuers come, they are really waiting for the whole family to take them to take them away.
Sir, there are two small boats here!
A servant's call made everyone present stand up and run over immediately. Morris himself rushed to the shore that the servant pointed to, hoping for his last life-saving straw.
Sure enough, there were two small boats leaning against the rocky dike by the river, so everyone didn't see it at first. The count found that there was a man lying inside one of them. He was probably the owner of the ship. From the outside, he was about fifteen or six years old. He couldn't see the specific appearance due to light. But now everyone doesn't care about this little thing at all. He just wanted to get these two life-saving ships as soon as possible.
Hello, boy, get up quickly! Stop sleeping!
The shouting immediately woke the boy on the boat, but he didn't seem to care about the rough disturbance. After opening his eyes, stretching his waist and getting up, he looked at the unusual team on the shore with a sleepy face, and asked everyone with a smile.
Good evening, dear sirs, I wonder if I don’t sleep well like me on such a quiet night, and wake me up, is it going to have a dance party?
Boy, we have asked for these two ships of yours. Now let us get on now
The Count was too lazy to respond to the inappropriate joke, and after saying his purpose, he threw a gold coin to the boy on the ship.
Sir, these two ships are half my property, and a gold coin is probably not enough
The boy seemed to understand the situation quickly and began to bargain.
If it were normal, Morris would have asked someone to beat this ignorant boy and then leave. But at this moment, the initiative is in the hands of others. He can waste anything but time cannot. So he threw another gold coin and started to ask his family to board the boat
Sir, it's enough to buy half of my property with 2 gold coins, but I think you took all your property with you. In this case, aren't the two gold coins cheaper?
The boy still seemed to be somewhat dissatisfied
This time, if he was just taking advantage of the opportunity, the earl who had already boarded the ship now tightened his heart. The boy had already known the situation of his group. Although it was indeed abnormal for a group of people to travel by water at night, how could he realize so quickly that this was his own family? Will he go to inform him? Who is he? Various questions made the earl's mood, which had just stabilized, panic again.
But the boy seemed to comfort himself, suddenly walked off the boat, gave up his seat, and looked like he didn't intend to get entangled with everyone.
Haha, don't be nervous, all of you, actually at dusk today, the Guards suddenly issued a curfew order on the ships on the river, so I guess something must have happened. It happened that I stopped the boat here because I didn't have time to go back, so I stopped the boat here and slept directly now, looking at your situation, I almost know the reason for the curfew.
This made the count breathe a sigh of relief, and by the way he heard what he wanted to know, but the boy in front of him still made him feel a little worried. How could a teenage boatman find out these unrelated situations in such a short time?
The other party does not seem to be hostile to him, but it is obviously not simple.
But now there is no time to think about it so much. Since he doesn't intend to make things difficult for him, there is no need to worry about those small things. After all, nothing is more important than life now.
After more than a dozen people squeezed into two ships, a bigger problem arose. Although the ship could fill up so many people, the waterline was very deep after adding various luggage. So, let alone the cargo ships in the bay, they might have to sink before they even left the estuary.
What to do? Of course, I can only lose weight, but the problem is that these people who followed me are already the closest and trustworthy people. Naturally, the relatives in the family cannot be left behind. Several servants have followed me for a long time or have to rely on them in the future. The only thing they can throw away except people are the heaviest gold nuggets.
No, these can't be thrown away
It seemed that I had seen through the count's thoughts, and the countess, who had always been quiet, suddenly shouted
After all, after escaping to another country this time, it still depends on money. It is essential to live a luxurious life like this, and these gold nuggets are the reason why the Countess still brought these heavy yellow stones by her side amidst many oppositions.
I won't throw these golds away. If I really want to throw them away, I'll leave this little bastard.
As he said that, the Countess pushed a thin little girl off the boat, and the little girl stayed in the same place and didn't dare to move after being driven off the boat.
Just how can a girl's weight help, the waterline of the boat still does not reach the safety line
The girl pushed down was small and small. She could feel that she was obviously not aristocrat in her bad clothes, but it was really strange to have such a thin servant on the way to escape. The Count was also in a dilemma at this moment. He didn't seem to want to leave the girl, but he didn't want to offend his wife. He just wanted to leave and really had to give up some things.
My dear, I know that your whole family should not be worth only two gold coins. Make a decision quickly. There seem to be many people's footsteps coming closer.
The boy who had been watching the fun suddenly reminded the Count
Morris knew that it was not the time to procrastinate, so he stopped caring about his wife's objection and immediately ordered his servants to throw a bag of gold nuggets from each of the two ships, leaving only the last bag beside him. After throwing some extra luggage, both ships were finally able to barely sail.
These two bags of things are considered to buy your two ships
Standing on the boat off the shore, the count said to the young boatman with some reluctance.
No, sir, it bought your whole family's life
The boy answered peacefully and watched the two boats slide into the distance.
The whole incident seemed to be nothing to surprise him. The only thing that was surprised was that the group of people did not take the little girl who was knocked off the boat in the end. After being driven off the boat, the little girl never said a word. Looking at the thin figure who was still standing on the shore and looking at the disappearing direction of the boat, the boy didn't know what to say. After checking the two bags of gold nuggets, he hid them in two different places, and then he could only stand there with the girl all the time.
The person over there, right, it’s you!
The sudden shouting made the boy know the footsteps he had just heard, finally coming...
It was really embarrassing for Locke, the commander of the 1st regiment of the Third Army of the Guards. The task of arresting the Earl Morris family should have been very smooth. Moreover, Earl Gauss' granddaughter Ferner was assigned to his internship. It was when he showed his talents to this little beauty who had just turned 15. As a result, the group went to the Earl's Mansion and died. It was because he was teaching Miss Ferner the importance of keeping information confidential, so he immediately presented a negative teaching material in person.
Fortunately, in case of an afternoon, a curfew was issued on the moat, and the harbor pier had already arranged an ambush. Unless the Morris family could destroy the city wall and escape by land, it would be only a matter of time to catch people.
Following the information along the way to the moat, but did not see the expected Morris family, but only a boy and a girl were standing by the river. Locke called out the boy by the river impatiently.
The person over there, right, it’s you!
Hello, sir, is there anything wrong?
After turning around, the boy lowered his head respectfully and answered, which made Locke a little satisfied. After all, Miss Firner was watching from the side. Such an attitude could at least help him to save face a little.
There should be more than a dozen people here, have you seen it?
Yes, just now a group of noble people came here
Where are their people?
They snatched my boat and left
The boy replied calmly, as if the one who was robbed was not his ship.
What!
Locke almost vomited blood after hearing this. He thought that he should be foolproof after the curfew was issued, but he didn't expect that such an accident would happen in the end.
Don’t you know the afternoon ban, but you dare to park the boat on the bank of the river?
Locke, who had no idea about his image, grabbed the boy's neck. If he hadn't considered the image in front of Miss Firner, he would have sweared and fists together.
I know Ah, but it was just that the ban was too sudden. I didn't have time to go back and had to stop here. It wasn't intentional.
The boy was still answering slowly. Don’t have time to go back? It was dusk when the ban was under the ban, and everyone was given nearly 40 minutes to go back. How far can you live? How dare you say it’s too late, and I’m afraid!
Locke couldn't help but have an attack
Well... I live on Mo Island, I came to see the islander a week ago
The boy said while showing an official proof from the empire. After saying that, Locke immediately let go of his hand and put him down because the situation was a little unexpected.
Mo Island is one of the small islands on the vast moat of the imperial capital. It is really small, so only one person is usually sent to watch the island. However, since the broken island is far from the city, few people are willing to be island viewers. But this island is very close to the cliff near the palace, so according to regulations, a trusted person must be guarded by a trusted person above. Just imagine that the trusted person above naturally has some background. Who would want to come to this place where birds do not shit, so this matter has been dragged on.
But a week ago I heard that I found someone. I was just a rumor and didn't care much about it. However, the official proof presented by the boy just now was obviously true. I didn't expect it to be so coincidental.
Lock knew that there was some trouble now. It was not serious that the Morris family didn't catch it. For His Majesty and the nobles, he was already an irrelevant person. When he let him go because of a mistake, he was at most warned and some symbolic punishments. But the key is to find a scapegoat, otherwise his trust in the senior management will be over.
Originally, the little devil in front of him was the best target. I caught him and handed him over the job. As a result, the other party's background made me dare not take action. God knows that the new islander would be a little devil about 16 years old. It is probably a nobleman who brought his child over to get some political capital. Damn it, but he hurt him.
So what happened to this girl? Why is it dirty and messy
Rock pointed to the yellow and thin little girl who was knocked off the boat and asked. If it weren't for this special condition, I'm afraid she wouldn't have noticed the girl at all. Rock didn't even want to look at her more, just wanted to finish the business quickly.
Oh, this is the female slave I just bought today. Because I haven't had time to go back yet, I feel a little confused.
After the boy said this, not only the girl was a little surprised, but even he regretted it. He actually took on troubles that had nothing to do with him because of his sympathy. If the Guards checked it carefully, it would be a bit troublesome.
Humph, she doesn't even have a collar yet. Who knows she is a female slave Ah. You are also an employee of the imperial government. If you take your salary, don't do things that will damage the face of the empire. If you don't choose a female slave, you won't choose a better person.
Fortunately, the people in the Guards don't seem to care much about this inconspicuous girl, thanks to this girl who is far from the aristocratic image in all aspects.
As for Locke, he knew that the plan tonight was completely over. If there was no curfew, he could have directly requisitioned several ships to chase him. However, the trap he had set up trapped himself first and could only admit that he was unlucky.
By the way, sir, there's something else
The boy's words made Locke, who was already a little impatient, even more irritable, but it was not easy to have an attack, so he could only continue to listen to him...
The group of people left was very anxious and there were too many things, so they threw a bag here. I don’t know what it was, so I’d give it to you.
After saying that, the boy took out one of the hidden bags
Locke asked his subordinates to take the bag, but in fact he didn't expect anything, at most it was just some extra luggage.
But when his subordinates opened the heavy bag, everyone except the boy and the girl was shocked. After all, ten gold nuggets, even Locke, the commander of the Guards, had rarely seen them.
But for him at this time, the more important meaning was that if this was really left by Count Morris, even if he had not found a scapegoat, he would have had something to do with him.
You... do you know that there are gold nuggets?
Locke stuttered and asked the boy, he couldn't believe that anyone would hand it over with honestly knowing that there was so much gold inside, but the boy's calm expression made Locke think he knew what was inside.
Ah, I only know that the things inside were left by those nobles, and they should be very expensive, so I dare not take them all by myself. I didn’t expect that it was gold, so it should be left to the superior to you to deal with.
The boy's attitude was still so slow. He only took out one bag of gold left by the earl, but he would not be entangled by the Guards in the future. Although he had lost a lot from the momentum, it was actually the smartest way to do it.
But Locke, who finally grasped the life-saving straw, was naturally full of joy. After patting the boy's shoulder and complimenting, he turned around and gave an order to a pure and beautiful blonde girl under his command.
Firner, you can go to the headquarters to report all the situation now, and notify the Navy to help block it... Forget it, they are waiting to see us jokes anyway... Just report the situation directly
The girl named Ferner gave a timid salute and looked at the strange boy in front of her. She also stared at the abandoned girl for a while. She didn't know what she was thinking, but she quickly turned her eyes and rode back to the city. Her behavior was elegant and completely unsatisfied with arrogance. For everyone present, the flowing blonde hair when the girl left was probably the only breeze that suppressed the night.
In this way, after the Guards took away the gold nuggets, there were only the boy and the girl left on the calm river.
I……
The girl who had been silent was about to say something, but the boy interrupted her
I know you have a lot to say and a lot to say, but those are not important for the time being. That group of nobles left you and two bags of gold and exchanged their lives. I exchanged a bag of gold and a lie for our safety, so now you and another bag of gold are mine for the time being. I am very sleepy tonight. No matter how many I have, I will wait until tomorrow to tell me if I have more.
After saying that, the boy looked at the little dirty and thin girl in front of him. Judging from her expression, she seemed to have not accepted this reality yet.
In short, from today on, you will be my female slave. As a master and servant, we don’t need to know each other too deeply for the time being, but... at least we must know that the other person’s name is Ed. If you don’t have a surname, you are Ed?
My name is... Elise, from today on, I have no last name...

So what happened to this girl? Why is it dirty and messy
Rock pointed to the yellow and thin little girl who was knocked off the boat and asked. If it weren't for this special condition, I'm afraid she wouldn't have noticed the girl at all. Rock didn't even want to look at her more, just wanted to finish the business quickly.
Oh, this is the female slave I just bought today. Because I haven't had time to go back yet, I feel a little confused.
After the boy said this, not only the girl was a little surprised, but even he regretted it. He actually took on troubles that had nothing to do with him because of his sympathy. If the Guards checked it carefully, it would be a bit troublesome.
Humph, she doesn't even have a collar yet. Who knows she is a female slave Ah. You are also an employee of the imperial government. If you take your salary, don't do things that will damage the face of the empire. If you don't choose a female slave, you won't choose a better person.
Fortunately, the people in the Guards don't seem to care much about this inconspicuous girl, thanks to this girl who is far from the aristocratic image in all aspects.
As for Locke, he knew that the plan tonight was completely over. If there was no curfew, he could have directly requisitioned several ships to chase him. However, the trap he had set up trapped himself first and could only admit that he was unlucky.
By the way, sir, there's something else
The boy's words made Locke, who was already a little impatient, even more irritable, but it was not easy to have an attack, so he could only continue to listen to him...
The group of people left was very anxious and there were too many things, so they threw a bag here. I don’t know what it was, so I’d give it to you.
After saying that, the boy took out one of the hidden bags
Locke asked his subordinates to take the bag, but in fact he didn't expect anything, at most it was just some extra luggage.
But when his subordinates opened the heavy bag, everyone except the boy and the girl was shocked. After all, ten gold nuggets, even Locke, the commander of the Guards, had rarely seen them.
But for him at this time, the more important meaning was that if this was really left by Count Morris, even if he had not found a scapegoat, he would have had something to do with him.
You... do you know that there are gold nuggets?
Locke stuttered and asked the boy, he couldn't believe that anyone would hand it over with honestly knowing that there was so much gold inside, but the boy's calm expression made Locke think he knew what was inside.
Ah, I only know that the things inside were left by those nobles, and they should be very expensive, so I dare not take them all by myself. I didn’t expect that it was gold, so it should be left to the superior to you to deal with.
The boy's attitude was still so slow. He only took out one bag of gold left by the earl, but he would not be entangled by the Guards in the future. Although he had lost a lot from the momentum, it was actually the smartest way to do it.
But Locke, who finally grasped the life-saving straw, was naturally full of joy. After patting the boy's shoulder and complimenting, he turned around and gave an order to a pure and beautiful blonde girl under his command.
Firner, you can go to the headquarters to report all the situation now, and notify the Navy to help block it... Forget it, they are waiting to see us jokes anyway... Just report the situation directly
The girl named Ferner gave a timid salute and looked at the strange boy in front of her. She also stared at the abandoned girl for a while. She didn't know what she was thinking, but she quickly turned her eyes and rode back to the city. Her behavior was elegant and completely unsatisfied with arrogance. For everyone present, the flowing blonde hair when the girl left was probably the only breeze that suppressed the night.
In this way, after the Guards took away the gold nuggets, there were only the boy and the girl left on the calm river.
I……
The girl who had been silent was about to say something, but the boy interrupted her
I know you have a lot to say and a lot to say, but those are not important for the time being. That group of nobles left you and two bags of gold and exchanged their lives. I exchanged a bag of gold and a lie for our safety, so now you and another bag of gold are mine for the time being. I am very sleepy tonight. No matter how many I have, I will wait until tomorrow to tell me if I have more.
After saying that, the boy looked at the little dirty and thin girl in front of him. Judging from her expression, she seemed to have not accepted this reality yet.
In short, from today on, you will be my female slave. As a master and servant, we don’t need to know each other too deeply for the time being, but... at least we must know that the other person’s name is Ed. If you don’t have a surname, you are Ed?
My name is... Elise, from today on, I have no last name...
