A familiar voice came, attracting everyone's attention.

The door of the meeting hall was gently pushed open, and Charlotte, wearing a black aristocratic dress, appeared in everyone's sight.

Sebastian was the first to react.

The flame elf stood up from his seat almost instantly, his expression full of surprise.

"Owner!"

He quickly knelt down on one knee, put his right hand on his chest and saluted.

Seeing the girl pushing the door open, the knights and nobles closest to the door were also slightly stunned.

Then, they also stood up one after another and bowed to salute:

"My Lord Count!"

"My Lord Count!"

"Your Majesty the Earl..."

"Where did you discuss just now? Oh, by the way, don't worry about me for now. This should be a temporary meeting of nobles called by Sebastian, right? You can continue the discussion first, and I will listen for a while."

Good guy, a county can pull out so many people with just one pull. In her previous life, she would have believed that this was a fucking kingdom!

After that, the Leglis family raised the banner of rebellion.

Charlotte thus became the audience.

If it weren't for the fact that Viscount Remicio and the Kingdom's army were stationed in the Silver Mining City, and Vicount Remicio repeatedly warned the rebels not to invade the Castel Silver Mine, which would affect the Crescent Royal Family's normal mineral mining, otherwise the neutrality would be lifted.

If we intervened in the rebellion... I'm afraid even Caiyin City would have fallen long ago.

Within a month, they had assembled more than 10,000 troops and captured several cities in the north of the Castel Territory. The war spread all the way to the south...

"In addition, there are thirteen noble families on the way, including three barons. They should be able to summon about three thousand levies, for a total of twenty-five thousand nobles' coalition."

Only Charlotte and the Castel family can restrain the nobles.

Listening to the discussion, has the Leglis family in the north officially rebelled?

How long had she been asleep?

What happened next, even if Sebas and the nobles didn't talk about it, Charlotte herself could probably guess it.

The knight guard guarding the door consciously came over.

Charlotte looked at him quietly for a few times, nodded slightly, and then naturally sat down on the main seat.

Listening to the nobles' heartless pledges of allegiance, Charlotte nodded slightly, looking satisfied.

After hearing what Sebastian said, the nobles in the hall looked at each other, and then nodded one after another:

"Since the earl is safe and sound, we will naturally give our full support to the earl in suppressing the rebellion."

"My Lord Count!"

From this perspective, she had misunderstood this old noble just now.

Looking at the numbers recorded above, Charlotte was a little surprised:

"You gathered a total of 35,000 people?"

Without Charlotte's restraint, the nobles who came upon the call were unwilling to bow to Sebastian and give up the leadership of the coalition.

Charlotte's eyes slowly swept across the hall.

The old Viscount stood up again almost immediately and explained quickly:

Ah, no, even for those countries in the Middle Ages in previous lives, it was not easy to assemble so many armies. The mobilization capabilities of other worlds cannot be treated with common sense...

Yes, she did hand over the management authority of the territory to Sebastian before falling asleep, but what she firmly controlled was only the direct jurisdiction of Castel.

After gaining the support of the neighboring lords of Castells, the Leglis family announced that Charlotte's bloodline was doubtful.

Since the power was delegated to the other party, she might as well sit aside and listen in to understand the ins and outs of the matter.

They lined up on both sides, raised their ceremonial swords high, looked respectful, raised their heads and held their chests high, following closely behind Charlotte.

That is, when "she" went to inspect the Castel Silver Mine, the Leglis family, one of the three viscount families, hired mercenaries to attack "her".

"Yes, Master."

First of all, it must have been four months since she fell asleep.

Charlotte:……

In the third month of her sleep, a big event happened in the territory.

Although I don’t know how the nobles discovered that she was missing, and I don’t know where Nice, who was supposed to be a substitute, died, but as a lord, she must not show that she knows nothing about what happened in the territory.

.

However, although Nice's whereabouts are unknown, Charlotte can still clearly feel the connection with him deep in her soul.

This not only undermines her authority, but over time will also cause some thoughtful people to have some doubts about her...

Thinking of this, Charlotte couldn't help but glance at the old Viscount who was discussing the battle plan with Sebastian.

"..."

However, unlike the calm situation on the surface, sitting on the lord's seat at this moment, her heart was actually in chaos.

"Currently, the rebels have attacked the upper reaches of the Dorne River in the north. I suggest that the coalition forces move north immediately after integrating their troops and station themselves on one side of the Dorne River to prevent the rebels from crossing the river. At the same time, they train on the spot and look for possible fighter jets..."

Scanning the entire audience, she said gently:

After she woke up from the secret room, she changed her clothes and followed the call of blood and went straight to the parliament hall. When she came in, she only heard Viscount Len Castel proposing a regency cabinet, and the rest was completely

Confused.

They claimed that the real Charlotte was dead long ago, and that the fake Charlotte ruled Castel illegally and cruelly, and officially launched war on the Earl's Palace in the name of overthrowing the rule of the pretender and tyrant.

After receiving Charlotte's order, the nobles sat down again.

Viscount Leon Castells said respectfully:

At least... authority has been established among the nobles who still surround themselves under the banner of Castel!

It is true that under the premise that the lord is missing, his behavior is suspected of seizing power.

Viscount Len Castel took a step forward and said respectfully:

"Our military strength is three times that of the rebels, and we have the upper hand. Not only that, although the rebels are composed of the elite private soldiers of the Leglis family, more than 80% of them are conscripts and mercenaries, and their combat effectiveness is not strong.

"

Sebastian nodded:

"In addition to the frontline defenders, the direct-administered territory can also mobilize 2,000 standing troops, 3,000 levies, and 5,000 mercenaries."

Of course, what the Leglis family attacked was not the real "her", but Nice who was disguised as "her" substitute.

Respectful voices sounded like waves of echoes one after another in the meeting hall.

Charlotte nodded slightly:

"Your Excellency, Viscount, there is no need to be so panicked. As the lord of Castel, I understand your approach."

After listening to Viscount Len Castel's suggestion, Charlotte fell into thinking. She glanced at Sebastian and said:

Charlotte's eyes naturally fell on the old Viscount.

Even if Viscount Len Castel has selfish motives, if she really has never shown up, forming a regency cabinet is indeed the fastest way to unify the power of the nobles.

"All the troops added up, there are 35,000 people in total."

Afterwards, the lords from various places led their troops to Beigang.

But after traveling for more than a year, Charlotte's understanding of Miria's aristocratic system is no longer a novice.

Charlotte didn't know what was happening in her territory now.

Charlotte still recognized Sebastian's ability.

The old Viscount also bowed tremblingly, with a respectful and excited expression:

"Earl...my lord!"

"Your Majesty the Earl..."

Charlotte sat on the lord's throne, moved her butt left and right to a more comfortable sitting position, and said.

"Your Majesty, please forgive my rashness."

As Charlotte entered, the nobles consciously moved aside to both sides, allowing a direct path to the front.

Feudalism was not a county of the Celestial Empire, and the lords' restraint on their vassals was not that strong. Although Charlotte had gained the allegiance of many nobles, Charlotte was Charlotte, and Sebastian was Sebastian.

Charlotte walked through the crowd calmly, and the nobles on both sides bowed their heads in greeting.

But even so, the rebels have cut off the connection between the Earl's Palace and the Silver Mining City, and Northport has almost lost contact with the Castel Silver Mine.

"All for Castel!"
