Chapter 252 Sisters and Couples

Pigris glanced at his leader and saw that he was still listening attentively, and then said: "I found that among the Ardei tribe leaders in the west and north, Aristarchus' attitude towards Chalsipempas At worst, it can even be said to be hostile.

I didn't find out that they had any previous grudges. Based on what I learned, I guess the possible reason is that although the position of the chief of the Aldiyi tribe is passed down from father to son, it is not static.

As early as fifty years ago, Aldi's main stronghold was in Varidosi. Yes, Budokaribas's grandfather was once the chief of Aldi, but he made a big mistake and angered the people. The tribesmen, Akupagos' father was elected as the new chief by the tribal leaders.

Now Ardi was defeated by the Segestikas in the north, the Brochis in the east, losing a lot of land, and the Otariat in the south, losing the entire salt mine. Snow disasters occurred in the mountains in the west for two consecutive years. , Akupagos was also unable to provide good relief. His prestige among the tribes has been greatly affected, especially the tribes in the north and west are very dissatisfied with him.

However, Chalsyponpas has a very high prestige among these tribes. Once Akupagos dies, if these tribal leaders firmly disagree with Aristakas' succession, they will try their best to elect Chalcypenpas as the successor. As for the big leader, I’m afraid it’s hard to say what the outcome will be…”

"It seems that Akupagos married his granddaughter to me because he wanted our Nyx tribe to support his son." Maximus chuckled and asked instead: "Karsi Pampa Do you have any idea of ​​​​fighting for the leader of Aldi?"

"It's hard to tell." Pigris replied truthfully: "Although during those days at the southern border of Ardei, he would respond unceremoniously to Alistakas's provocations, and would discuss salt mines with the leaders of various ministries. He did not give in at all when sharing the profits, but when the army returned later, he told me that after returning to the tribe to take care of the funeral affairs of the tribesmen who died in the battle, he would take his men to sea...

You must know that Akupagos may not live for two months. If he really wants to compete for the position of the big leader, shouldn't he contact more tribal leaders who are familiar with him at this time and try his best to build momentum for himself? "

"What you said makes sense. If Calsipempas is not lying to you, it seems that he does not want to compete with Alistakas for the position of leader." Maximus nodded and asked again: "Acoupagos really didn't survive more than two months?"

"Yes, Chief, I have visited him twice during this period. He seems to be getting worse each time. He is now lying in bed unable to move at all, and even his voice is very weak... Cleobrotus He said that if you agree to the marriage, then hold the wedding as soon as possible, perhaps because he wants Acoupagos to see it with his own eyes before he dies..."

"Hold the wedding as soon as possible... Akupagos hopes that his son can successfully succeed to the throne." Maximus smiled softly and asked: "What do you think of Alistakas? "

"Hmm..." Pigris thought for a while and said: "Aristakas is not too young, but he is more reckless and prone to anger. He favors the tribes in the south and treats the tribal leaders in the north and west. He is not very friendly, and he is not good at hiding his likes and dislikes on his face... To be honest, I think if he becomes the big leader, I am afraid that there will be unrest in the Aldie tribe. "

"If Alistakas becomes the big leader, it is not necessarily a bad thing for us." Maximus said meaningfully: "And now we also need a stable handover of the position of the big leader of Ardie. ...Pigeris, go to the main stronghold of Ardei again and tell them——"

Maximus suddenly stopped talking and swallowed back the words "The Pannonians may launch a large-scale attack, so they should be on guard".

"Chief, why did you ask me to go to Ardei?!" Pygris asked doubtfully.

Maximus waved his hand and said calmly: "That's it. You go to the main village of Aldi and discuss with them to see if you can get more flax in the shortest possible time."

"You want more flax?" Pigris was a little surprised.

"Yes, you will know the reason soon."

"I understand, leader, I will try my best to negotiate with the Aldi people." Pigris suppressed the doubts in his heart and accepted the order happily.

In the afternoon, Nesia returned to the main house early and went directly to the sheep pen in the backyard. As expected, Flores Lucia was feeding the sheep here.

When Flores Lucia became a reserve member of the Nyx tribe, she chose to work as a nurse in the hospital because Nesia and Emmerich were taking care of her, and it also made it easier for doctors to continue to observe her condition and avoid recurrence. In fact, she didn't like taking care of wounded soldiers. Because of the shadow of Wallis, after marrying Maximus, she stopped working as a nurse. After obtaining Maximus's consent, she began to nurse in the main room. Cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks, and sometimes help Akonis cook.

At this moment, she saw that Nesia looked not well, and asked with concern: "Sister, why are you back so early? Are you feeling unwell?"

Nesia glanced at the maid behind her and said softly: "Liucia, come with me."

Floreslyusia followed Nesia to her bedroom in confusion. After sitting down, she asked curiously: "Sister, what's wrong with you calling me here?"

Nesia did not respond, but asked in a deep voice: "Liucia, are you pregnant now?"

Flores Lucia didn't understand: "What are you pregnant with?"

"Child! Are you pregnant with the leader's child?!" Nesia emphasized every word.

Flores Lucia's face suddenly turned red, and she whispered shyly: "Sister, you... what are you talking about! I've only been here less than ten days... and it's not like I'm... with the leader... every day... how could it be so fast? That’s it.”

Indeed, after Phleslyusia got married, she and Nesia took turns sleeping with Maximus...

Of course Nesia knew this, and she sighed softly: "Sister, don't blame me for being impatient. Today at the tribe's political hall meeting, Pigris said that the chief of the Ardei tribe has formally made a request to our tribe. He wants to He wants to marry his granddaughter to the leader to make the relationship between the two tribes closer.

Most of the chief officers of various departments agreed, and the leader did not object, so the matter was settled... Horace told me about it when he returned to the medical department, and I will come back to you as soon as possible. "

"That is to say... there will be a woman from Ardei living in soon! Sister, then... then I... what should we do?" Flores Lucia was a little panicked.

"Don't worry." Nesia comforted her softly: "Even if that woman is from a noble family and has the support of the entire Aldi tribe, this is Nix, and she who came in last should show respect to you and me! But for the sake of your future, you still have to find a way to conceive the leader’s child as soon as possible, and it’s best to have a boy!”

Flores Lucia clasped her hands tightly and whispered: "Sister, why can't the leader refuse this request of the Ardeis?"

"This matter... you can't blame the leader, because our Nix tribe needs Aldi as an ally, and we need their support and help so that we can live a good life here." Nesia sighed helplessly and sighed. He said in a loud voice: "Did you know that the Pannonians are preparing to attack us again!"

When Flores Lucia heard this, her whole body trembled involuntarily.

"Sister, don't be afraid!" Nesia quickly hugged her tightly and comforted her loudly: "Last year, we defeated the Pannoni several times! Now we are stronger and we can definitely defeat them again!"

At dusk, Maximus returned to the backyard of the main house. Arconis had already asked his men to prepare dinner.

He, Nesia, and Foleslyucia sat around the dining table to eat. No one spoke, and the atmosphere was a bit depressing.

Akonis had already heard some rumors and found an excuse to leave early.

After dinner, Maximus coughed heavily, breaking the silence in the room: "Liucia, please leave first. I have something to tell Nesia."

"Oh..." Foleslyusia stood up hesitantly and glanced at Nesia.

Nesia blinked at her, and she walked out of the restaurant with confidence.

Facing Nesia's calm gaze, Maximus coughed lightly: "Have you heard about what was discussed in the political hall today?"

"whats the matter?"

"I didn't expect that Chief Ardie wanted me to marry her granddaughter. I didn't expect that he would make such a request, and the guys in the political hall actually agreed!" Maximus felt guilty and angry. :"me--"

"They are right, we need the friendship of the Ardie people, especially when the Pannoni are about to attack us." There was a hint of sadness in Nesia's calm tone: "I just hope that you, chief, marry this... ...After the woman of Ardey, don’t forget me——”

"How is this possible!" Maximus held Nesia's hand, stared at her pretty face, and said emotionally: "You are my wife and my comrade-in-arms. From the time we met until now, we have shared the joys and sorrows. After more than two years, you are my most important relative! This is not something that Lucia can compare with, and that Gniandafla who has never met before is even more incomparable with you!

So I left you here just now because I wanted to discuss with you that from now on, you will be in charge of our family’s affairs. Whether it is Lucia or Gnian Davra, they must obey your management——"
