Black Iron Crown

"But..." Butler Rachel was about to say something when he saw Farrant raised his hand and said coldly: "Needless to say, I don't need you to get the ledger, I'll let my people get it !"

As he said that, Frante winked at the two attendants beside him, and the two of them instantly understood and left the meeting hall.

"Oh ma'am..." The butler looked at Farrant's appearance and raised his anger, shook his head and said mockingly: "I'm afraid your two followers don't know where the ledger is, after all, they are just That's it!"

"That's not necessarily the case, let's wait and see!" Farrant said with a sneer without even looking at him.

After a while, the steward in charge of the stables walked into the hall holding the ledger.

"Madam, this is the account book of the stable. It records the expenditure of horse feed, the salary of the grooms, the replacement of horseshoes and the maintenance of the saddle. All expenses are recorded on it. Please check it!"

The stable steward Alaire walked to Frante respectfully, bowed and handed the ledger to Frante.

Frant glanced at the ugly-faced butler Rachel, took the account book and flipped through it casually, and said approvingly: "Very good, you have managed the stables very well, I am very satisfied!"

As he spoke, he put the ledger on the table beside him, and continued to wait silently for the arrival of another ledger.

Except for Rachel, the other three housekeepers each sent their accounts, but she didn't check any of them except for the stable housekeeper's account book.

Her silence put great pressure on everyone present, even the two little maids who were in charge of serving Reiner knelt on one knee and dared not speak, for fear of offending Madam.

About ten minutes later, two followers walked into the hall again, and one of them held a booklet in his hand.

"My lord, we have already obtained this ledger, please check it!" The entourage respectfully handed the ledger in his hand to Farrant.

Frante observed carefully, then his brows became more and more wrinkled, and an angry expression gradually appeared on his face.

The silent people below observed this, and couldn't help but tremble. The remaining three housekeepers all looked at Rachel with pity, then lowered their heads and remained silent.

"Bang!" Farrant slapped the account book on the table, looked at Butler Rachel coldly and said, "Look up, Butler Rachel!"

"What's the matter, ma'am?" Rachel's tone trembled at this time,

He subconsciously felt that something was wrong, but thinking that he still had a backer, he tried his best to keep himself calm.

"You still dare to ask me what's wrong?" Frant pointed at Rachel and said angrily, "I hope you can tell me why it takes twenty silver coins to melt a silver plate? Even if it is a pure silver plate It’s not that much, did you make a manger or a plate?”

"And this! I don't remember buying honey in the castle last month! Why is there a record of spending two gold coins to buy honey here?"

"Honey is taxed in kind, why do you need to spend money to buy it! You can explain it to me one by one!" Frant slammed the silver tin wine glass on the table to the ground, The light mead inside was scattered all over the floor.

"There are many reasons for this, ma'am, please don't ask any more questions!" Rachel's tone began to tremble, but he was still very stubborn and refused to admit it.

"Well, since you don't want to explain, then the guards in the prison will definitely let you explain!"

As soon as Frante finished speaking, two of her followers stepped forward to arrest her.

"No! Let go of your paws! You damn pig!" Rachel threw the two of them away fiercely, and shouted to Farrant: "You have no right to catch me! I want to see Madam! I To see my sister!"

Seeing this, Logan couldn't help frowning. Although Reiner didn't say it clearly when he asked him to come to the platform today, he understood what Reiner meant, that he wanted to support Frante.

So, he quickly said to the four guards standing in the hall: "Follow Madam's order! Control him first!"

The four people stationed in the room were Sergeant Moreland, and they were holding a halberd that was about as tall as them, a weapon that could exert great combat effectiveness even in the castle.

The two pointed their halberds at Rachel, making him dare not resist.

The other two supported him with one arm and came to Frante.

"Put him up first, and I will deal with him!" Frant waved his hand coldly, without even looking at him, as if he was a disgusting maggot.

After taking Rachel away, Farrant picked up the other two accounts and checked them carefully.

The two housekeepers couldn't help but swallowed when they saw Frante's serious expression, and nervous sweat appeared on their foreheads. After looking at each other, they fell on the ground and dared not look at Frante again.

Time seems to be extremely long at this moment, and in their hearts, it seems that a whole year has passed.

Frant put the accounts on the table and tapped the table lightly.

Such a voice was extremely obvious in this silent environment, and it startled the two of them suddenly.

I only heard Frante say: "It's not bad, but judging from the accounts, there has been a lot of waste in the past. I hope you can be more frugal and reduce unnecessary expenses in the future. Do you understand?"

Hearing Frante's cold words, the two nodded again and again, and hurriedly said: "Please rest assured, Ma'am! We will definitely do what you say, your words are our unbreakable orders!"

"Well, very good..." Frante's tone gradually slowed down, and he said: "Then, everyone present today can receive three copper coins as a reward, and you three, each of you will receive one silver coin! From now on In the future, I hope that you will do your best to maintain the stability of the castle under my leadership!"

"Understand?"

"Follow your order! Ma'am!" Everyone said in unison, causing echoes in the entire conference hall.

The corners of Farrant's mouth curled up slightly, and he knew how to give a sweet date with a stick.

Although Mrs. Moreland is no longer in charge of these matters on the surface, her legacy of influence is everywhere.

However, there is only one mistress in this land, and there can only be one, and that is her Frante.

Even if she doesn't think about herself, she still has to think about the child in her womb.

If the child's mother is just an answering person and a puppet, then no matter how high the status of his father is, the respect he receives is limited.

Especially in her current situation, not only those royal lords, but even Leiner's vassals hope to replace the grand princess in the north one day.

As a hostess, she must have her own majesty and rights, and she sees this very clearly!
