I traveled through time and became a slave, and the noble lady was obsessed with me

Chapter 402 Unexpected News

Chen Fan and Monica were invited into the study by Marquis Hailey and served black tea and snacks.

Jarvis, on the other hand, was a little disheartened, accepted his fate, and packed his luggage honestly.

Monica sat aside and kept looking at Chen Fan with doubtful eyes.

I wonder what Chen Fan did to make Marquis Hailey suddenly be so polite to them.

After all, you must know that Marquis Hailey belongs to Duke Ang's generation.

Their family has the background to be promoted to Duke, but it is a pity that there is no one in the family who is involved in politics.

If he was so polite to Duke Ang, it would be understandable that he had a reason, but it would be strange to be polite to these two juniors.

Chen Fan was cryptic, and so was Marquis Hailey.

When the two met, they only talked about some recent news in the royal capital. It seemed like they were chatting after they had not seen each other for a long time.

If Monica hadn't known that Chen Fan had never met Marquis Hailey before, she would have thought that the two had known each other for a long time.

It was just a casual chat, but Chen Fan suddenly heard shocking news.

"I'm really sorry just now. It wasn't me who came to greet you, but someone from the military headquarters came to discuss with me the purchase of more war horses."

"It is said that the front line has already been fought. Our cavalry rushed forward and fell into the trap of the orcs. They suffered heavy losses. 30% of the cavalry died."

"That's why we have to hurriedly purchase enough war horses from our several horse farms and send them to the front line to replenish them."

Chen Fan knew that this was a courtesy exchange from Marquis Hailey. He helped him solve the Jarvis matter, and he sent him a big news in return.

Since Duke Ang returned to the front line, the battle situation on the front line has been very hidden, and only the big shots at the top can know about it.

Everyone in the kingdom could only roughly know that the fighting on the front line was fierce, but they had no idea what the fighting was like.

It was only now that the news of the cavalry's disastrous defeat was learned from Marquis Hailey.

Later, they started talking about some daily things, but Chen Fan already seemed a little absent-minded.

The war horses that had been prepared outside ended their conversation and asked both parties to stop.

As soon as they left the door, Monica couldn't help but grabbed Chen Fan and wanted to ask him about the changes in Marquis Hailey before and after.

As for things on the front line, although Monica was worried, she was not that worried.

Duke Ang is in charge of the front line of defense, and other people are in charge of the cavalry.

The person who had the accident was not her father, so Monica naturally wouldn't be too worried.

Although Chen Fan was a little absent-minded, he still explained a few words.

"Marquis Hailey still has some feelings for his bastard."

"It's just that Jarvis has already expressed his intention to kill Molphilia, and Molphilia's status is obviously much more important than Jarvis."

"It is absolutely impossible for the head of a family to see the possibility of family members killing each other, especially a bastard against his eldest son."

"If I hadn't spoken out, Jarvis might have died."

"Taking Jarvis away from the Hailey family can naturally avoid a lot of things. It is better than ordering the murder of the bastard himself."

Smart Monica knows everything.

"No wonder Uncle Hailey treats you so well and tells you news from the front line."

"You have helped him retain a good reputation. At least among other nobles, there will be no more reputation for killing bastards."

Whether it was because of some feelings or because of reputation, Chen Fan no longer wanted to worry about it.

After hearing the news from Marquis Hailey, Chen Fan knew that it was finally their turn to go to the battlefield!
Monica has no interest in war, so she hasn't reacted yet.

But Chen Fan has been paying attention to this war. The cavalry on the front line suffered heavy losses, and the military knew how to replenish war horses as soon as possible. But what about the knights riding on war horses?
Then we must recruit new knights as soon as possible and go to the front line.

Chen Fan's group of silver knights are naturally the next ones to be recruited immediately.

This sudden loss made the recruitment time much earlier than he predicted.

Fortunately, Chen Fan had already prepared the things he needed to prepare.

He estimated that within a day or two at most, the news that the front line was defeated and that there was an urgent need to recruit knights would reach the royal capital.

The time left for these knights is estimated to be less than half a day at most.

With Jarvis, who was still somewhat taciturn, and several helpers behind him, everyone hurriedly returned to the Bellucci family castle.

When he returned here, a messenger sent from the royal capital was already waiting at the gate of the castle.

as predicted!

This person was the messenger who came to inform Chen Fan that he needed to report to the Knights Union.

Originally, this news was sent to the military department to replenish horses, and should have come out at the same time.

It's just that the messenger first went to the villa in the West District, but failed, and then found this place.

After becoming a Silver Knight, Chen Fan was already qualified to receive this kind of treatment.

He received the Kingdom recruitment letter from the other party.

Monica, who was still smiling next to her, suddenly had a frozen expression on her face.

"Are you going to the battlefield?"

I had just heard about the defeat of the frontline knights, but I didn't expect that now Chen Fan would be the unlucky one to continue to make up for it.

"Well, it was a matter of time."

"The earlier you go to the front line, the more freedom you will have."

Seeing Chen Fan's indifferent expression, Monica only felt that her heart was about to break.

The messengers nearby did not leave. In addition to delivering letters, these messengers also had the responsibility of supervision.

Just because they were afraid that some cowards would suddenly find some excuse not to come to recruit, the messenger did not forget to remind them at this time.

"The time I came to inform you is already a bit late. We'd better return to the Knights Guild now, otherwise we may miss a lot of things."

"Okay, give me ten minutes."

Monica felt uncomfortable, but she still had to put on a strong expression in front of outsiders.

Chen Fan didn't say anything, he just walked into the castle with Monica alone.

As soon as he entered the castle and rejected all the servants, Chen Fan held Monica's hand tightly and held her in his arms.

Being picked up so suddenly and held in her arms, Monica would have turned red with embarrassment and started to struggle if it were normal.

But today, Monica just looked straight into Chen Fan's eyes

Everyone knows what it means to go to the battlefield.

Looking into the other party's bright eyes, Chen Fan made his promise.

"Monica, trust me."

"I will definitely come back alive."

Finally, I pressed deeply against the red lips.
