Quick Transmigration: Losing All Standing and Reputation - Chapter 73
[Chapter 73 Glory Recovery (5)]
The fact that the governess became the father’s mistress was a big blow to Gertrude. The only consolation is that her remarks, which seemed to have grown more outrageous with anger, did not displease the Palatinate.
Instead, the Palatinate showed considerable agreement.
The excesses of elders are still outstanding even in this chaotic era, and instead of becoming a playboy, Palatinate went to the other extreme.
Palatinate desperately longed for loyalty and single-mindedness, but he saw a lot of noble ladies show affection for him one second, and flirt with others the next. Perhaps the more people attracted, the more compliment these ladies were, but Palatinate didn’t want to be one of those men who flirted with a lot of ladies and was complacent about it.
The two of them seemed so out of place among the nobles, but they became close friends who could truly understand each other.
Gertrude once commented on the Palatinate in his letter: “Rhine, you may have many shortcomings. Compared with a mature and determined man, you are too immature and often too indecisive. You are not afraid to make choices, you It’s just that you know too well the responsibility you need to take behind your choice, and you hesitate to take it. But just for this, you have surpassed countless boys of the same age. Their wanton and reckless actions are not real bravery, but ignorance of the world. Innocent and cruel. Your passion comes from your natural sympathy for the weak, and your cowardice is because you are unwilling to hurt and dare not stand up and stand out among the nobles. But one day, your kind nature Will lead you to make up your mind to be a true warrior, rebel against these inhumane aristocratic rules, and bring a little light to this dark century. Of course, Rhine, you should never feel too much pressure for these words of mine, even if you are always lacking That little bit ignites your own flame, and you are still the most lovable and lovable person in my heart.”
Every time he read a letter, Rhine’s heart sank a little more. When he was reading the letter, his brows were sometimes furrowed, and the corners of his mouth were slightly warped, but in the end he always returned to a kind of silence and grief.
Rhine thought that Gertrude had not misunderstood Palatinate, and the fire in his heart was indeed lit for her. It is a pity that the weak body of the nobles prevented Palatinate from being able to survive the grief in his heart, and he did not truly become the warrior Gertrude had hoped for until he passed away. But as Gertrude once said, even if Palatinate passed away like this, he was still the most lovable and lovable person in her heart.
Rhine put away the letters as usual, and was about to go back to his room to sleep, but saw Joseph rushing over. The old butler has worked at Blandings Castle for more than 30 years, always keeping the word of etiquette in mind and reluctant to lose his temper at any time. Although it was described as serious and steady at this moment, the anxious gesture that was vaguely revealed had exposed Joseph’s nervousness.
Rhine frowned slightly and asked: “Joseph, what happened?”
Joseph whispered: “Duke Derek appeared at the gate of our castle covered in blood, and I just had him carried in. Sir, we What should I do now?”
The king of the Fran Dynasty was surnamed Derek, and the only person in the whole country who could be called Duke Derek was the king’s eldest son, Hill Derek.
This is a real hassle.
Although he is an earl, he has independent jurisdiction over his own territory and is not directly managed by the king. But the king, in turn, exercised dominion over the nobles who owned the territories by establishing the papacy and giving them privileges on the lands of the nobles. Although Rhine didn’t want to get involved in the war of heirs prematurely, he couldn’t tolerate him at this moment. In any case, Duke Derek couldn’t die in his castle.
Joseph has already sent for a doctor.
Rhine couldn’t wait. He also knew about the medical level today. The most common method was bloodletting. Derek is now like this. Just waiting for the doctor to come will have to kill half of his life. When the doctor arrives, it will be even better, and the remaining half of his life will be gone.
Rhine took care of Derek’s wound by himself. Joseph was startled and discouraged, “Master, what are you doing?”
Rhine said: “The less people know about Duke Derek’s appearance at Blandings Castle, the better. You won’t save people. I will
.
Rhine straightened his face and emphasized it again.
Although Rhine grew up under the watch of Joseph, he has always respected Rhine. Seeing his persistence, he finally complied. As for Rhine’s talk about saving people, Joseph didn’t have much doubt. Although Rhine did not like sports, when the old Palatinate was still alive, the father and son went hunting several times, and the treatment of trauma should be at that time. Learned. Joseph never doubted the intelligence of the little master. He thought about listening to Rhine’s treatment of the Duke’s trauma first, and waiting for the doctor to come to do the rest.
Rhine checked Derek up and down, and found that all of them were injured by sharp objects, some deep and some shallow, but fortunately they avoided a few fatal places.
Rhine used alcohol to briefly disinfect the Duke’s wound, then bandaged all the wounds, and asked Joseph to watch and pick some herbs. When he and Hillier were patrolling the land before, he brought back all the herbs he could see and planted them, and now it just came in handy. But in this age of lack of medicines, the threat of infection is too great, and if the duke wants to survive, it is best to pray that those who stabbed him often clean their weapons.
Rhine looked at the pale face of the duke, and still felt that he should do something more. If he tried hard to survive, what would he help?
Rhine helped the duke to sit up and tried to transport the infuriating energy into the duke’s body. The infuriating energy in his body was originally low, and it was even more difficult to transmit it to other people’s bodies. In the end, the infuriating energy passed by just like a gossamer.
Rhine’s face turned pale and felt a little hurt, so he sat with his head on his back for a while before he recovered. I don’t know if it was a psychological effect, but he always felt that the duke’s complexion was better than just now.
Duke Derek, a distant and irrelevant person to Rhine. But when it comes to connection, I can barely find that little bit.
Rhine guessed that the duke didn’t hate the Holy See, but at least he wouldn’t like it anywhere.
Hill Derek is the son of King George and Queen Bridget. It was not long before George took office, when he was young and strong, and his ideals were lofty.
The power disputes between kings and popes have a long history. As we all know, when a king ascends the throne, he must be crowned by the pope. After the pope crowned the king, he had to bow to him again. The Holy See seized on the coronation in an effort to prove that the Pope had power over the King. And the king seized the pope’s bow again, emphasizing that no one can offend the majesty of the king.
King George used to be an ideal king, and he took an extremely tough stance to suppress the Holy See. However, after several wrestling, the Holy See was even better. In the end, the Holy See attacked Queen Brigitte for her beliefs, forcing King George to annul his marriage with Queen Brigitte and marry Princess Mary of the neighboring country of Winter. The weak King George could not resist the pressure and eventually succumbed to the Holy See, and had to send the old queen Brigitte back to her hometown of Motos.
Not long after Brigitte returned to Motos, he died of illness, when Prince Hill was twelve years old, when his memory was clear and he could distinguish between good and bad. News of Brigitte’s death came back to Fran, and King George made Hill a duke, choosing a large fertile land as his fief. Fran has always been primogeniture, and as long as Hill is alive, no other prince can inherit the throne. It would be fine if King George or Hill gave them titles and lands, but if not, their lives would soon be deteriorating, even worse than a landed earl. And although King George began to bestow titles on several princes after Hill, the area of territory was too chilling compared to Hill, no wonder some people couldn’t help but attack Hill.
Rhine thought it might not be an accident that the duke fell outside his castle. Not that Duke Derek made himself this way and collapsed in front of Blandings Castle. But he found the Rhine Gate when he asked for help, perhaps on purpose.
When Rhine was thinking about this, Joseph came back, and the herbal medicine had already been boiled by the maid in the way Rhine said, but it was confusing that John had not brought the doctor back. Usually, it doesn’t take so long for John to ask a doctor for Rhine, and to see a doctor for the gentle-hearted Earl, which doctor would push things back?
Hearing Joseph’s words, Rhine became aware of it and said, “Housekeeper, go to John. If anyone asks, they say I’m sick. Just bring a doctor back to see me at will.”
Joseph was a little puzzled, but he didn’t know . Should you ask.
Rhine took the initiative to explain: “The doctor hasn’t come, there should be some big people over there, I’m afraid it has something to do with the Duke’s injury. John can’t deal with this kind of scene, Joseph, you have to bring him back, pretending to be sick I’ll be fine.”
Joseph understood the meaning of Rhine’s words, and felt a little frightened, and hurriedly went to pick him up.
Rhine finally glanced at Duke Derek, and only hoped that his willpower was strong enough to survive this test.
After seeing this, Rhine went back to the room. Because of his uneasy brothers, he had to pretend to be sick again. Fortunately, Western medicine does not take the pulse, and there are no useful instruments in this era, so pretending to be sick is just a piece of cake for Rhine.
Rhine broke out in a cold sweat on the bed, and with that pale face, when Joseph came back, let alone the doctor who came back, even Joseph thought that Rhine was really sick. The doctor could only diagnose based on these symptoms, and prescribed some ridiculous prescriptions to Rhine.
But Rhine still pretended to be weak and nodded in cooperation.
The doctor soon left. According to John, when he sent the doctor out, he found him looking around the castle as if he was looking for something.
Joseph understood immediately, thinking that it is fortunate that the old man is alert. Then he looked at Rhine with some worry, and found that his complexion was gradually ruddy again, not like the weakness just now.
Rhine explained: “I just used up some physical strength to pretend to be sick, and I will slowly get better after resting for a while.”
Naturally, Joseph would not question the master’s words, but instead nodded clearly.
Duke Derek stayed in Blandings Castle just like that. He lay in a drowsy state for a few days and woke up several times in between. Although he fell asleep later, in Rhine’s eyes, he was already 80% alive.
This duke is really a man of perseverance, and Rhine is willing to lend a helping hand to such a person.
