Chapter 398: The soldiers are divided into two groups

Tap! Tap!

"Gervis! What are you doing?"

Just when the eldest prince was about to order people to capture Gervais, Alice led her men out of the camp on a war horse.

Seeing the tense situation between Gervais and the eldest prince, Alice galloped forward with a face on her face and asked Gervais.

"It's nothing. I just went out to practice. When I returned to the camp, His Royal Highness stopped me and refused to let me in!"

"Eldest Prince, I wonder what you want from Gervais?"

Alice frowned. He didn't have a good impression of the eldest prince, especially after what happened at the Glory Manor last time. Now that he saw the eldest prince with so many people surrounding Gervais, she didn't give him a good look.

.

"Gervis, you'd better be careful!"

The eldest prince didn't say much. Seeing Alice leading a group of Rose Knights, he knew that it was impossible to capture Gervais now, so he said a harsh word, then turned his horse and walked towards the camp.

Of course, he would not tell his speculation about Gervais and Caroline in public, after all, it was related to his face.

And currently he is just speculating and suspecting without any evidence.

Seeing that the eldest prince said harsh words and turned away, Gervais snorted coldly and said nothing else.

If this matter gets serious, it will also cause trouble for Alice. It is the best outcome to end it like this, so Gervais doesn't want to cause trouble for the time being.

As for being resented by the eldest prince, Gervais didn't care at all. In fact, even if he and the eldest prince had a grudge at the Glory Manor, even if today's incident was added, the debt was too much to be afraid of being bitten by lice.

"Let's go, Gervais! We're going back to camp!"

Seeing that the eldest prince left directly, Alice didn't pay much attention and said directly to Gervais.

At this moment, Ike and others were also following Alice's team, and the unicorn was also brought.

Gervais nodded, quickly climbed onto the unicorn's horse, and then left the camp with Alice.



"Gervis, what happened just now?"

After leaving the camp, Gervais and Alice walked slowly side by side, and then Alice asked about what happened just now.

"I was just going to go for a walk in the woods by the river, and unexpectedly I met Caroline crying alone by the river..."

Gervais did not hide anything from Alice. He told Alice in detail how Caroline cried alone by the river and then committed suicide. He had no choice but to go into the water and rescue the person in a thrilling way.

Of course, for the sake of a harmonious relationship between himself and Alice, and also to prevent Alice from getting more troubled, Gervist hid the fact that he gave Caroline artificial respiration and was raped on the grass.

Alice frowned slightly after listening to Gervais's words, and then said.

"Caroline was a very strong girl when she was a child, but since she became an adult, she has been able to endure this in order to become the queen!"

"Gervis, then why didn't you tell the eldest prince what happened just now? After all, you saved Caroline's life! He should thank you!"

Alice did not doubt the truth of Gervase's words, nor did she think that Gervais and Caroline had just staged a sexy scene on the grass.

After all, Caroline has been working hard for the position of queen over the years, and in order to maintain a pure body, Caroline cannot have any relationship with other men.

"Too lazy to say!"

Gervais was a little unhappy and wanted to explain to the eldest prince how this was possible!

Not to mention anything else, Gervais remembered what happened at Glory Manor a few days ago.

If it weren't for the Lord of the North, I might have finished this second life by then.

One day, he was ready to take revenge.

"I know you men are all pretty."

Alice heard the dissatisfaction in Gervais's words, rolled her eyes at him angrily, and then continued.

"But Gervais, the eldest prince is a bit narrow-minded, and he treats Caroline as if he is forbidden. Now that the eldest prince has misunderstood you, then you and the eldest prince have completely forged a grudge, and the next southern expedition will be very difficult.

Trouble!"

"What trouble?"

Gervais also became serious when he heard Alice speaking so solemnly.

Gervais knew Alice's temperament very well. If this cold goddess said she was in trouble, she really was in trouble.

Alice never exaggerates or lies.

"The king just discussed with our eight Earl families and made a decision. In the next southern expedition, we will attack the Principality of Alban in two groups."

"One way is led by the main elite of the Eight Earls to advance from the front, while the other way is led by you vassals acting together to advance from the side."

Alice slowly told Gervais the reason in detail.

"Split the troops into two groups? Then who is the commander-in-chief of our group? Is it the eldest prince Derek?"

Gervais immediately guessed what the trouble Alice was talking about was, but it turned out that it was not good news.

"Yes, the commander-in-chief of your journey is the eldest prince!"

Alice nodded, confirming Gervais' guess.

"What a trouble!"

Gervais frowned.

If it were him personally, he wouldn't worry too much. Even if the eldest prince wanted to trick him, he could still escape. After all, he was a noble and Alice's husband. In the end, he would not get any benefits at all.

But the problem is that when the time comes, he will take his subordinates with him. He can escape, but his subordinates cannot.

If the eldest prince really wants to deal with himself, he will definitely use his tricks when the time comes.

Moreover, the king's decision is impossible to change at this moment. The only thing Gervais can do now is to minimize his constraints.

"Gervis, if not, you can pretend to be ill tomorrow and stay in the camp, then follow my team forward."

Seeing Gervais frowning and thinking, Alice thought for a while and suggested to Gervais.

"no!"

Upon hearing Alice's suggestion, Gervais immediately shook his head and rejected the idea.

It's not that Alice's proposal is unfeasible. This proposal can indeed save Gervais from having to fight again. After all, Alice is his nominal lord.

Even if Gervais slept in the tent every day for the rest of the battle, as long as Alice didn't say anything, there would be no problem.

The reason why Gervais rejected this method without hesitation was entirely because if he chose to do so, he would not get any loot in the future.

Since King and Lu will attack with elite troops next, there will naturally be no place for Gervais, a small and unknown nobleman.

If you don't participate in the battle, where will the spoils come from? Without the spoils, wouldn't Gervais's southern expedition be a huge loss?

Gervais has already tasted the benefits of the battle in White Rock City today, and the first reward he finally won cannot be wasted.

"Alice, I need to participate in the battle and need a lot of loot and prisoners to develop my territory."

Gervais explained.

"However, the eldest prince may take the opportunity to make things difficult for you when the time comes!"

Hearing the firmness in Gervais' tone, Alice couldn't help but worry.

"I'm not worried about the eldest prince making things difficult for me. What I'm worried about is my father and my subordinates!"

Gervais heard the concern in Alice's words and smiled slightly.

"Alice, let my father stay in your camp when the time comes! In addition, I will only take away 0 people from my medical team, and the rest will stay in your camp!"

Gandalf is Gervais's father, and he is the only person other than Gervase's subordinates who can threaten him, so Gervais decided to leave Gandalf with Alice.

As for Gandalf's trophies, Gervais felt that he should have gained a lot. When the time comes, he would share some of the profits with Gandalf, and he should be able to keep Gandalf full.

Among Gervais's subordinates, the medical team is the only team not designed for combat, and they are all girls.

So to be on the safe side, Gervais decided to leave them here with Alice and take only 0 people with him for emergencies.

Even if an emergency occurs, Gervais can respond quickly.

"Gervis, are you sure you want to do this? In fact, the development of the territory does not happen overnight, you can take your time!"

"And after returning from the southern expedition, you will also receive a barony as a reward from the king."

Alice was still a little worried and wanted to persuade Gervais again.

In her opinion, Gervais' gains in White Rock City were equal to the combined gains of dozens of vassals in previous years.

"Alice, you don't have to worry about me. I only make this choice when I'm sure. When have you ever seen me do something I'm not sure about?"

Gervais patted his chest and assured Alice.

Gervais had already thought about it. If the soldiers came to block the water and cover him with earth, the eldest prince would not dare to kill him blatantly. At most, he would be a stumbling block for himself.
