After her sister disappeared, Alice took her daughter upstairs and looked at the rain all over the sky with a sense of loss.
She knew that with her sister's nature, it would be difficult for her to repair her relationship in the short term - and she was not qualified to ask her sister to forgive her.
Although this was a knot she had expected for a long time, when she actually faced it, she still felt heartbroken.
"Husband, are you okay?" At this moment, she heard a call from beside her.
She was awakened from her meditation, and then looked at Ed next to her in shock, "Bo, haven't you left yet?"
"The captain has left. I was worried about you coming here, so I came back to take a look." Edmund replied, "It seems that you and Miss Agnes had a very unpleasant conversation."
"It's more than unpleasant!" Alice said bitterly, "For the first time in her life, she yelled at me. I'm afraid I broke her heart."
Edmund didn't know how to deal with it, so he could only shrug, "She can't bear this kind of blow. But I, you have such deep feelings, she will definitely forgive you in the future -"
"I hope so, but I don't know when it will be realized?" Alice smiled bitterly.
"You should be tired too. Go back and rest early. I will handle the rest." Edmund reminded him kindly.
"Oh my God!" Alice came back to her senses when Edmund mentioned it.
Because of the attack just now and the fight between the sisters, the scene was already full of wolves. There were still Alice's gun and the one thrown by Agnes on the ground, as well as the shocking blood stains.
Although no one may be able to open the door and see this, and even if these things are confiscated, it is difficult to trace them back to their original places, it is still troublesome to leave them where they are.
With Alice's prudence, she wouldn't have needed to mention it originally, but the quarrel between the sisters just now brought too much energy to her, so in her trance, she even forgot to clean up the scene.
"Then please, Earl..." Alice bowed her head and thanked the Earl.
"It's just a little effort." Edmund shook his head, "I should thank you - because of it, we were able to capture the thorn that dared to stab your Majesty. Before the snow falls for your Majesty, the captain and I will definitely give you credit for your efforts. Report it to your two majesties, and I believe they will also mark it down for you."
Alice didn't care about the question of credit or not, but she took the opportunity to remind the earl.
"Uncle, I have one thing, I hope you can cooperate with me."
"What's the matter? Please tell me." Edmund replied quickly.
Alice glanced secretly at Zhou to make sure no one else could hear her, and then whispered back to the count, "You'd better keep Bianca in your hands and make sure she doesn't die."
"Huh?" The count didn't quite understand what Alice meant.
"Your Majesty promised Agni before that he would give her a chance to fight Bianca in exchange for Bianca's life." Seeing that Edmund had not yet figured it out, Alice quickly performed an autopsy for him, "Why do you think he would do this? What? Doesn’t he hate that assassin? He must be gritting his teeth with hatred, but he is willing to give Agnes this opportunity - that is to say, as long as Agnes asks him, then he may not want Bianca to die .”

Edmund reacted immediately.
He quite believed that His Majesty would deliberately spare Bianca's life to please Miss Agnes - and conversely, if Bianca fell into his hands, she would become a threat to His Majesty to some extent. Miss Agnes' Tools.
Seeing Edmund's reaction, Alice reminded in a low voice, "Princess Theresa is different, she doesn't need to please anyone, and she values her family. She will never forgive anyone who dares to stab her husband. …”
Yes! Edmund suddenly woke up.
Alice is hinting that the two majesties have different demands on Bianca's issue. If Bianca is controlled or led by the captain, then the order passed by Her Royal Highness the Princess will be Bianca's. Death, no one can plead for mercy.
So how should you choose?
There is no doubt that as Princess Theresa's master, Edmund must be loyal, but as His Majesty's heart, he can only be more loyal to Your Majesty, so he cannot let Bianca die like this.
"Thank you for the reminder." He nodded, "Don't worry, I will control her
Come. "
Seeing that the other person was understanding, Alice completely let go. She knelt down and confessed to Edmund. Then she shouted and disappeared into the streets with her daughter.
The reason why Alice reminded Bo was not that she was so loyal to her Majesty, nor that she really cared about Bianca's life, but that she knew that as long as Bianca didn't, there would still be a glimmer of hope in Agnes's heart. It would not lead to a complete stalemate with her - this was also her last effort to restore the relationship between the sisters.
Now, she was exhausted physically and mentally, and just wanted to return to her warm home, close her eyes and have a good rest.
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------
Before Alice left, Edmund hurriedly packed up and left.
He returned to his original home, and at this time, the captain had returned one step ahead of schedule.
"Where is she?" Edmund asked quickly after seeing the captain.
"In the guest room." The captain answered simply.
Then, he took Edmund with him to the guest room.
As soon as he entered, Edmund smelled a pungent smell of blood, and then he found that Bianca was lying unconscious on the bed, and her original injury had been bandaged.
"I am a swordsman, and I have also participated in it. In order to protect myself, I have learned some simple first aid." The captain said slightly proudly. "And it seems that this woman's vitality is surprisingly strong. Although she is very weak now, she will definitely not die."
Edmund was relieved when he heard that Bianca's life was not in danger.
"I'm going to move her to a safe place and imprison her." Then, Edmund, "leaving her here won't be good after all."
The captain's expression changed.
Before leaving, Princess Teresa specifically told him to treat the Count as his boss and obey his orders, and he was happy to carry out this order.
He always felt a pity that Bianca had just fallen into his hands and was about to be taken away without interrogating her specific situation.
However, he couldn't disobey the earl's order, so after hesitating, he made a suggestion, "I think I should send a message to your two majesties."

"Yes, I will report it immediately, and you can also countersign it." In order to dispel the other party's suspicion, Edmund immediately agreed, saying that he would never hide it, "We will imprison her first and wait for the two of us. His Majesty’s instructions.”
The captain emphasized, “My two majesties actually want Princess Teresa to know.
Edmund emphasized that "the two majesties actually meant that he would only follow the orders to deal with Bianca if Aigron gave instructions.
Although the two people were not referring to the same thing, they reached a consensus on reaching the same goal through different paths.
"Well, then I have nothing to say. You are the leader here. I will do as you say." The captain nodded and agreed to his wish, but he finally made another request, "But I also have to know that you Where to put her? It’s not that I can’t trust the count, but since I have an envoy, I must know.”
Edmund said nothing more, just nodded slightly.
When daylight came, the two of them loaded the unconscious Bianca into the horse and quietly took her out of the house.
Under the lights, the carriage quietly arrived at the old Tanglar mansion along the familiar road.
As soon as he dismounted, the captain looked at the grand building in front of him, and then whistled.
"It's a big enough room, it's suitable for locking people up..." Then he looked at Ed with a smile, "Old man, this is where you and your sweetheart live? It's really comfortable enough."
Edmund was slightly embarrassed, but he was accustomed to it, so he quickly regained his composure. "Yes."
"It's really good to let women take care of women... It's better than us grown men doing this kind of thing." The captain nodded, but immediately sneered, "No, is she really that trustworthy?"
Why do you dare to place so much trust in her? In fact, Edmund also asked himself this.
Emily was by no means a simple and innocent woman, and he knew this better than anyone else.
But, now he is in phase
, Emily will be on her side.
Maybe he was blind, maybe he was straight, but he was not wrong when he made this judgment, whether in Greece or Paris.
"She is mine, and she is naturally on our side." He answered in an unquestionable tone.
The captain looked at the count for a moment, then nodded again, acknowledging Edmund's guarantee.
"Okay, since you said so, of course I will obey your arrangements."
At this time, Emily was already in the bedroom preparing to sleep, but there was a vague hope in her heart that the Earl could come to accompany her tonight.
Since getting together with the powerful and energetic Earl, Emily has experienced a sense of comfort that she hasn't had in a long time, and also has a feeling of "eating the marrow and knowing the taste".
And just when she was thinking about those sweet but a little ugly paintings and was about to fall asleep, she found that the doorknob of her bedroom seemed to be moving.
Here he comes!
A slight flush suddenly appeared on Emily's face, which was more of shyness than excitement.

Soon, the door was opened, and her worried face appeared at the door during the day, but this face was much more serious than usual.
"Aimi, hug, get up first and come here. I have something to discuss with you."
The Earl's serious expression surprised Emily, but of course she did not dare to disobey the Earl's order, so she carefully dressed and then came to the small living room.
She quickly noticed that in addition to the earl, there was another tall and burly man in the room, and on the carpet at the man's feet, there was an unconscious woman lying on the carpet. The woman was wrapped in white bandages, as if There's still blood on it...
"Ah!" Emily covered her lips with all her strength to prevent herself from making an earth-shattering scream, but even so, she was still so frightened that her face turned pale.
For a moment, several conjectures came to her mind - but every conjecture was dangerous and terrifying.
However, the man opposite just looked at Amy with interest, then he nodded, and then looked at the earl.
"That's great, brother." He whispered, seeming to be praising the earl's vision and means.
"Amy, don't panic." The Earl stood next to Emily and comforted her in a low voice. "It's fine."
How can this be called nothing? ! Emily rebelled in her heart and was so scared that she almost cried.
No, unexpectedly, the count's eyes calmed her down a little.
She lifted up shakily and pointed at the woman lying on the carpet.
"She...who is she?"
"A woman, an enemy of my friend." The count answered briefly, "Amy, is there any place here suitable for confinement? I need to imprison her here for a while."
"There is a small attic on the top floor." Emily blurted out, "It's very secluded there, and no one is usually allowed to go up to the top floor."
After saying that, Emily suddenly reacted, how could she so easily consider the issue from the perspective of an accomplice? This is obviously very dangerous.
"Okay." However, before she could say anything else, Edmund nodded, "Take us there."
Emily was confused at this moment, but in the end she nodded and turned around, and the two men also lifted the woman on the ground and followed her.
Not long after, they reached the top, then moved up the wooden ladder and got in through a patio window.
This is a medium-sized space, and there is a bit of musty smell in the air. It is definitely not a comfortable place.
No, neither the captain nor Edmund had any sympathy - after all, this was her fault, and she was lucky to be alive now.
Then, the captain and the count took some blankets from the room below to cover them, and also specially found iron to tie up Bianca.
Fortunately, during the bankruptcy, most of the servants in the mansion either left on their own or were sent away, making the huge mansion extremely empty. Otherwise, these movements might have alerted others.
When everything was ready, the captain nodded.
"Okay, that's about it. I hope she likes her new place."
This nasty joke certainly didn’t make anyone laugh.
"It seems that there is nothing I need to do now, so I will take my leave first and not disturb the happy gathering of you two -" Then, the captain bowed his head and told the count and Emily, "Yes, during this period in Paris, I She will visit her regularly, so please take good care of her."
After saying that, he walked down and floated away from the darkness.
Edmund and Emily ignored each other, sealed the cabinet together, and then walked back to the bedroom.
"Dismiss the remaining servants here as soon as possible. I will send reliable people over." After a long silence, Edmund spoke.
Emily nodded silently, "You don't have to discuss it with me, everything here belongs to you, you can arrange whatever you want-"
"Amy, thank you." Edmund hugged her in his arms, "I knew you would help me."
"Do I have any other choice?" Emily's smile was bitter, but also a bit sad and charming, "Only, Earl, do you plan to let me continue to be ignorant? At least let me know that I am. Do whatever you want!”
"Then, let me tell you." Edmund replied, "I was sent by the King of Rome, and I am the Count of Monte Cristo whom he personally named. And you... you are my family."
The glory of the young eagle.
