铁毡公国，
铁蒺藜骑士团营地。
如果说教堂是每个民众的信仰，那这片驻扎在铁蒺藜之森的营地，便是公国内所有骑士毕生追逐的梦想之地。
铁蒺藜之森横亘在公国腹地与离火城之间，这里是骑士团练兵习武的绝佳场所，也是距离公国最近的一个军事力量。
今日，这片营地迎来了一位尊贵的客人。
一辆装饰华丽的马车缓缓驶入森林，朝着营地深处行去，车轮碾过林间石板路，打破了森林的静谧。
“站住！”
营地入口，两名巡逻骑士厉声呵斥，手中长矛横在身前拦住了马车的去路。
铁蒺藜骑士团有铁律，非团内人员严禁擅自进入。
索尔班纵身跳下马车，抬手扔出一块令牌。
为首的骑士接过一看，脸色骤变，连忙单膝跪地，语气恭敬到极致。
“参见公爵大人！”
身后的数十名巡逻骑士，见状也纷纷单膝跪地。
“参见公爵大人。”
马车内，
伊格内斯低沉而威严的声音传出。
“铁蒺藜骑士团有规矩，不允许外人进入，索尔班，你在此等候吧。”
“是，公爵大人。”索尔班躬身应下，站在营地入口一侧。
一旁的巡逻骑士连忙起身，恭敬地接过马车缰绳，牵引着马匹驶入营地。
索尔班则如同一尊石人伫立在原地，身姿挺拔，神色肃穆，没有丝毫怨言。
他是公爵的贴身卫队长，恪守本分、绝对服从，便是他毕生的准则。
营地内，
烛火微亮，跳动的火光将帐篷内的影子拉得很长。
伊格内斯坐在主位上，看着下方骑士。
“莫维恩，我让你查的事情可有眉目了？”
莫维恩脸色凝重下来，上前一步，声音压得极低：
“公爵大人，事情已有眉目。只是这个消息的准确度，属下不敢完全保证，是从老侯爵那里得知的。”
“岳父大人？”
伊格内斯眉眼上扬，显然有些意外。
他有两个岳父，一个是朱丽叶的父亲里昂・瓦勒蒙。
还有一个是伊莎贝拉的外公，老侯爵，列奥纳多・布雷尔。
里昂对于伊格内斯来说顶多算是臣子，但列奥纳多却是他敬重之人。
当年他能顺利登上公爵之位，打破各方势力的阻挠，全靠列奥纳多的鼎力支持。
只是自伊莎贝拉的母亲，也就是他的发妻安娜去世后，列奥纳多便因伤心过度一病不起，主动退出了公国内的政治中心，隐居静养，多年来再不过问朝堂之事。
莫维恩察觉到伊格内斯的神色变化，继续低声说道：
“属下突破御卡宗师之后，曾特意前往拜访老侯爵大人，向他致谢。
或许是老侯爵大人察觉到属下一直在暗中调查朱丽叶夫人当年的事情，便将一些尘封的情报告诉了属下。请求出错，状态码:0内容:请求出错，状态码:502内容:<!DOCTYPE html>
