Chapter Four: Back to Campbell



“Knights, get ready, we’re heading to Campbell now,” Li Aili said as she walked over.

"If nothing unexpected happens, that place will become our territory from now on."

The Golden Knights: "!!"

Li Aili said, "Go and inform your wives to cancel their rooms. We're leaving now."

Li Aili only found out this time when she came out.

These 16 golden knights who fled from the capital all had families.

He married girls who were all from the central city.

Moreover, several of the ladies are already pregnant.

Soon, the knights had their horses ready, the ladies boarded the carriages, and the knights rode on horseback.

Lee Ellie and Joanna will definitely ride in the same carriage.

Ellie's younger brother, Wendy Nice, volunteered to go horseback riding.

He even went so far as to show off his horse to Li Aili.

"Sister, look at my horse! Isn't it beautiful? They say it has one-eighth dragon blood."

"Oh, riding a horse is so tiring, unlike my sister who can only ride in a carriage."

The bubble above his head read: 【Jealous? I'll make you so mad, hehehe~】

Li Aili: "..."

She calmly stepped forward, cracked the whip across the horse's rump, and the horse lurched off.

Li Aili calmly boarded the carriage.

Golden Knight Ben Karsa winked at his wife.

So, his wife pulled her younger sister Rhea along, and walked somewhat awkwardly toward Li Aili.

"Madam, would you have the honor of riding in the same carriage as me?" Ben's wife, Sophia, asked cautiously.

Li Aili smiled slightly and said to them, "Of course, come on up."

The two ladies immediately showed delight and, lifting their skirts, boarded the carriage.

Rhea, the younger sister, is more lively, while Sofia, the older sister, is not very talkative.

Once seated in the carriage, Rhea couldn't contain her joy and chatted happily like a jubilant little bird:

"Madam, our cousin is Anne, Mrs. Anne Barton!"

“We all admire you. You have no idea how legendary you are in Madam’s circle!”

Li Aili: "..."

Rella looked at Li Aili with sparkling eyes, like a die-hard fan.

Bubbles, like croaking chickens, were about to burst out of the carriage.

【Aaaaaaaahh ...

The carriage started moving from slow to fast, and Li Aili heard for the first time that she was a legend in the ladies' circle.

She asked with great interest, "A legend?"

The little girl nodded and said, "From being disliked by her handsome husband in an arranged marriage, to being the Duke's exclusive favorite... Oops! Sister, you stepped on me!"

Sofia just wanted her sister to shut up...

The lady and the duke are divorced! Don't mention it!

Li Aili's smile faded slightly as she changed the subject, asking, "How did you get to know Ben and the others?"

The two ladies blushed when this was mentioned.

Sophia said, "It was our cousin Anne who introduced us to this marriage."

"To be honest, my family didn't believe me at first."

"I was thinking, the Golden Knight from the capital would never be interested in a minor noble like us from a duchy."

"As you know, the Knights also had one before..."

That Knight Mark Duke, at that time, many knights wanted to introduce their unmarried relatives to him.

"but……"

Li Aili nodded, "I understand." That Mr. 007 has very high standards.

Rella said, "But Cousin Anne insisted, so we said let's meet! And guess what? It actually happened!"

"Ah, are all the women in the capital blind? Valen is such a good and strong man, and they don't want him!"

Li Aili sighed, "The royal capital places more emphasis on lineage."

These 16 Golden Knights were all of commoner origin.

In the eyes of the great nobles in the capital, a Golden Knight of commoner origin was not as good as a minor baron.

Soon, the carriage slowly came to a stop.

Li Aili thought they had arrived, but when she looked out the car window, all she saw was wasteland, and Campbell was still a long way off.

Li Aili frowned slightly.

Having lived in Campbell for three months, she knew all too well what kind of people her former 'neighbors' were.

Li Aili's first reaction was, "Am I being robbed?"

But then I thought, Thomason probably wouldn't be so reckless as to rob a caravan led by 17 Golden Knights.

Li Aili pushed open the car door and got out, saying, "I'll go check on things. Don't move."

Ahead, the golden knight's steed was blocked by a roadblock.

Several familiar 'old neighbors' blocked the road, acting as if they thought, 'This road is mine.'

Edward's expression had turned rather grim. "What did you say?"

The bald man at the head of the group said, "This is where Duchess Cold Emerald once lived."

"Three gold coins per person for the toll? Can't you understand human language?"

Edward's eyes darkened.

The bald man immediately said, "What are you doing? Trying to fight?"

"Let me tell you, this is the territory of the Duke of Cold Emerald. You dare to cause trouble and see what happens!"

Edward: "..."

Li Aili calmly stepped forward and said to the men blocking her way, "'Bald Head,' 'Viper,' it's me."

Upon seeing Li Aili, the two were stunned for a moment, then turned and ran in terror, shouting, "Boss! Boss! That duchess has run away again!!"

"The Duke's 'death army' is coming!!!"

"Quick! Boss! Run!"

Li Aili: "…………"

Soon, "The Ripper" Thomas Sese ran this way, pulling up his pants.

[Dog shit! Dog shit!! I'm in the toilet!!]

When Thomason saw Li Ai Li, his expression first showed surprise, then changed to hesitation, and finally he cautiously probed:

"You... you've come out again?"

Li Aili: "..."

Edward, unable to bear it any longer, dismounted and drew his sword.

His hands, gripping the knight's longsword, were bulging with veins.

The sword tip was pointed directly at Thomas's waistband. "You'd better pull your pants up properly!!!"

In short, after a chaotic encounter...

Ellie Lee has finally returned to Campbell.

Campbell's local bully, Thomason, had a miserable look on his face, and the bubbles on his head were all a gruesome color:

We're almost starving...

【what to do?】

[I'm a little hesitant to speak up about Ellie.]

Although she didn't say it, it seems she couldn't stand her relationship with her boyfriend anymore, which is why she came to this dumping ground.

We swore to be sworn brothers, but... when she was taken away to save my brothers' lives, I didn't say a word...

Despite thinking this, Thomason still rubbed his hands together and then rubbed his face.

"Madam..."

Could you please ask the Duke for permission?

We should ask him to find another place to call his territory, and not this 'garbage dump'.

The guys really can't take it anymore!

Li Aili: "What happened to Campbell?"
