"To my dear Richard Stuart:

It has been three years since we last met. During these three years, I have been thinking of you every day and night, and our children are also thinking of you, the father who has never met. You said that you would often come back to see me after leaving Bennett, but you didn't do it. I understand why you didn't come back. As a king of a powerful country, you must have no spare time to go out at will.

However, people around me are thinking that you will not come back anymore. They began to humiliate me, saying that I am a shameless **** and our son is a humble illegitimate child. You may not know all of this, but it is true It really happened to me.

Just yesterday, the day before I wrote this letter, my father sent someone to take me home to the manor. He wanted to marry me to a wealthy businessman in another place, but I desperately refused, perhaps because of you. Because of the forces staying here, he didn't dare to be too presumptuous, and could only leave in angrily.

My dear, if you still think that the little Alfred has inherited your excellent blood, please come back and see us-oh, please forgive me, because I have not got the name you named him for so long, I will give it myself He named him Alfred, which is a good name.

Your Diane was drafted at Niles Manor in Bennett City on June 25, 1120. "

...

Silently put the letter away and put it back in his arms. Richard turned to face Stephanie, but was surprised to find that she had been looking in this direction for some time. Richard was taken aback for a moment, and then quickly squeezed out a touch. Smile, strode towards her.

"What happened?" Stephanie asked, Richard's little actions did not hide her from her. After so many years of getting along with each other, she may be the person who knows Richard best.

"Nothing, I'll take care of it." Richard said with a smile. The rough callused hand gently stroked Stephanie's cheek, making her frown and avoid it. Although she didn't speak, Richard could still feel it. To the meaning of her disgust.

Little Frederick, who was playing on the side, watched his parents' movements and giggled.

"Every time." Stephanie glanced at him and said dissatisfiedly. Richard didn't feel embarrassed at all. He scratched his head, and then sat down beside his wife with one hand. Putting her arm around her other shoulder, she was able to lean on herself, and said, "You will have a baby in a few months. I don't want you to be distracted by some small things."

Upon hearing this, Stephanie gave Richard a light hammer and tweeted: "It's not the first time I gave birth. Look, isn't our Frederick still playing there well?"

"Just in case." Richard said. He looked at Stephanie's plump face. Although she is not as slim and beautiful as she was at the beginning, she still has a special flavor.

However, he remembered the letter in his arms. Diane’s experience was unexpected. He always thought that the people there would be somewhat restrained for his own sake, but he did not expect that after only three years, they would be stupid. Don’t put yourself in the eye.

I can't let this happen, I have to do something. Richard thought to himself that Alfred was his own flesh and blood, and Diane was also his woman. He couldn't even protect his mistress, and he wouldn't be afraid of being laughed at by others.

So, after he returned to the study, he immediately repaired the book and sent it to Bennett to let the Teutonic Knights stationed there work.

...

A few days later, his messenger arrived in Bennett City and brought Richard’s orders to the local Teutonic Knights' stronghold. This is the highest and most prestigious of the ten knights in the stronghold. People, as the local supreme commander, this all can dispatch the local ten knights, thirty-three knights, and fifty-nine Knechten troops.

The fact that there are so many people in a stronghold is all due to the management of this Dutong, because the Knights only give them a fixed amount of money each month as expenses, and this money does not meet their expenses, so this Dutong Collecting the knights' money, they invested in several factories and businesses in Bennett. They earned subsidies through business. Their background in the Kingdom of Winster made them a fortune.

This is also the status quo of most of the knights' strongholds. The headquarters will not give them too much funds. Everything depends on them for self-sufficiency. In addition, because of their business behavior, the headquarters of the knights also ordered them to pay at the end of each year. To pay part of the funds to the headquarters, the answer is obvious as to whose pocket the funds will finally flow into.

Keke, it's far away.

After receiving the envelope from Richard to him, Betullah Mahsud, the capital of Bennett’s stronghold, was slightly surprised, because Richard rarely personally wrote orders to people at the first level of the stronghold. So he couldn't help but raised his heart and looked it up carefully. After checking, he had nothing to say for a while. He also understood Diane’s affairs. He sent her maid here to seek assistance a few days ago. For Richard’s sake, he also sent A group of people passed by, just interrupting Diane's family plan to forcibly take her away.

Now, Richard has personally written a letter asking him to bring Diane and Alfred back to Nord City. Betula Mahasud can only act under his orders. He personally ordered five knights and twenty A Knechten servant soldier left the stronghold and went to Niles’ house~lightnovelpub.net~ At the same time, outside Niles’ house, Diane’s father sent someone to order her to go back, perhaps because The last time the Teutonic Knights intervened, they did not dare to use violence this time, and instead resorted to a more gentle way of shouting. In order to express their determination, her father Tarihati personally came to the scene.

"Diane, dear, for the family, come back soon."

"No, father, I refuse to go back. I am already King Stuart's. I can't do anything to betray him."

"Diane, it's been three years. Your King Stuart has never come back to visit you and your Alfred. He must have forgotten you. Instead of continuing to live alone here, It's better to go back with us."

Tarihati was still outside persuading, but within the fence of the house, Diane had already ran into the house. How could she not understand what her father said? It's just that she still has a glimmer of hope in her heart. Maybe she waits a few more days and Richard will see her in person after receiving the letter from him.

Diane is more willing to continue to be Richard’s mistress than to marry a wealthy businessman from another region. She gave Richard enough sons to get rich rewards. It’s not a bad idea to become a nobleman with a territory, then she Why do you need to condescend to be the wife of a businessman?
