Chapter 15 The Eldest Princess Visits at Starry Night
  After receiving the support of the Queen, Princess Anne couldn't wait to leave the palace. She was even impatient to ride in a carriage. Instead, she rode a war horse in the royal stables and led her guards out of the city. Brandleth Manor.

"Her Royal Highness the Princess came to visit late at night. Please forgive me for not being able to welcome her from afar!" Old Butler Foster looked at the already dark sky outside and was very surprised by Princess Anne's arrival.

Just from the way the horse that Princess Anne rode was dripping with sweat, he could tell that the princess must have been galloping all the way here without any pity for the horse power.

If there wasn't something very important and urgent, a dignified imperial princess would definitely not make such a dangerous and reckless move.

So Foster hurriedly welcomed Princess Anne into the manor and said to her: "Miss is having dinner at the moment. Is there something urgent for you?"

"Well, prepare one for me too! I came out of the city in a hurry, and I haven't had dinner yet!" Princess Anne was a little informal due to her years of military experience. She walked to the restaurant and said to Foster ordered: "It's still the same as before, lamb chops and sun-roasted eggs, and also take a bottle from the old Baron Brandlis' wine cellar! I brought the title of Little Perfectcott. Certificate.

By the way, there is also the horse I rode here, take good care of it! He is very tired today. As for my guards, don't worry about them. Just provide them with a place to station themselves in the manor. "

"Please rest assured, I will definitely take good care of your beloved horse!" As an old butler who has served the Brandless family for three generations, Foster clearly knows that the title certificate means a lot to the Brandless family. means nothing.

This also made him more and more afraid to neglect. He clapped his hands and activated all the maid puppets in the manor, asking them to provide services to Princess Anne.

Suddenly, more than a dozen dolls came out from various parts of the manor and began to move. This made Brandless Manor, which originally only had the old butler and Perfect Court, seem to have returned to its busiest time in the past.

Seeing these maid puppets, Princess Anne was not surprised at all. After nodding to the old housekeeper, she went directly to the restaurant under the guidance of a maid puppet.

Although she was no stranger to Brandlis Manor, sometimes aristocratic etiquette was such a troublesome thing.

The old butler Foster hurriedly went to deal with the horse that Princess Anne rode. Because Purficott dismissed all the servants in the manor three years ago, Brandless Manor now has no grooms.

Although there are still a few old horses left by Grandpa Perfectcott in the stable, they are always taken care of and managed by Foster every day.

After all, after replacing the steam carriage, the horses in the manor only meant that Purficott occasionally rode them when he was in a good mood, or that Foster himself rode them for hunting and patrolling forest farms, so they did not require additional care.

Fortunately, Foster used to be Grandpa Purfict's knight squire. Taking care of horses has been something he has been exposed to since he was a child, and it is not complicated to do.

A horse that has run a long way like this cannot be allowed to rest immediately. It needs to be allowed to walk slowly for a certain distance to relax its muscles before being led to the stable.

But before that, you need to dry the sweat on it with a dry cloth to prevent it from getting cold.

Horses are very delicate animals, and even the smallest accident or carelessness may cause them to become ill or even die. So in the past, the first lesson for knights and their attendants to start their knight training career was to learn how to take care of their mounts. After all, this is the knight's closest partner on the battlefield.

After taking care of Princess Anne's horse and arranging for the Princess's guards to rest and station in the manor, Foster returned to the mansion. As a housekeeper, he must be present when receiving important guests.

At this time, Princess Anne had already taken a seat in the restaurant, and the maids had already served her exquisite dishes and the fine wine she had requested from the cellar, while Purficott was looking at the document written by Her Majesty the Queen herself.

"Allowing me to directly inherit the title, and having all the documents for the title ready, Her Majesty the Queen seems to have high hopes for me!" Purficott did not expect that the Queen would directly give such support.

You must know that although she is the sole heir of the Brandlis family, she is indeed qualified to inherit the title according to the empire's current title inheritance law, but the empire's inheritance law is still a male-first inheritance system.

Therefore, even if Purficott reaches adulthood, she still needs to go through a series of long and complicated processes in order to pass the review of the Noble Council, inherit the title passed down by her grandfather, and obtain her title certificate.

But now, Her Majesty the Queen bypassed this layer and directly gave her the title certificate, which removed the biggest obstacle for Perficott to inherit the title.

Especially since Purficott's title certificate says Baroness instead of Baron, the meaning is even more different.

But this is not the point. After all, the world is about to be destroyed. Whether or not a title has a certain impact is still a little bit affected now. It has almost no meaning in the future. It is not even as good as a ticket to the New World.

"In addition to the title, there is also the support of all the resources in the royal family." Princess Anne tasted the soft lamb chops again and again, while explaining to Purficott: "Mother allows me to mobilize all the resources in the royal family to support you. , carry out the so-called 'Arctic Science Expedition' plan, and now you have enough resources to realize your idea."

"All the resources in the name of the royal family? This is indeed very good! Then the Royal Langton University and the Royal Dockyard..." Purficott's eyes suddenly lit up. It was obvious that this was the support she wanted: "Mobilize Is it possible for professors from Royal Langton University to join the program and have the Royal Dockyards build more airships as per my requirements?”

"If you need it, I can ask them to free up about...three slipways for you at the Royal Shipyard." Princess Anne made an estimate, and then gave a guarantee: "They are all large slipways that can build cruisers. , although I also want to give you more slipways, it is impossible for the Royal Shipyard to abandon the ships being built on the slipways just to make room for you with slipways and berths.

On the Royal Langton University side, anyone you need is welcome, and I will recruit them to join your plan in the name of the royal family.

Even if those professors don't know about the disaster, I think they will be very interested in exploring the Arctic and conducting scientific expeditions in the Arctic. "

"Let's recruit people in the name of Arctic scientific expedition in the mainland first. In order to avoid causing unnecessary panic, confidentiality must be kept." At this time, Purficott finally felt a little confident that he could deal with this disaster.
