nodded. The Beguine winked and when her mother was gone he said, 'Agnes, you will make a wise choice if you accept the king's knight. Very soon will kill the sorcerer and we thank you have been your suitor who captured him. He is also handsome, and his manners are charming, and they say that all the ladies of the palace pining for him.
Agnes smiled and wordlessly Beguine continued market — A lady also said that now that he has titles and fortune, many daughters and nieces of the courtiers wanted to catch him but he ... The completely ignores them all. Because his heart is already smitten by another lady, which only know she is beautiful and has long golden hair.
— Beguine, I like the knight Gauvin, but do not love him then said Agnes, speaking because his mother was not around. His eyes were fixed on the garden, and in the bushes covered with dry leaves. It was cold but it was the hottest time of the day and decided to use it. I was not going to church, because the sheriff had told his father that someone had seen the Count of Montpellier prowling the city. It was like a prisoner in her own home.
— Oh, my dear girl, love comes later, always. Just you know, but it seems a respectful and gentle man, very handsome and I will tell ... No worries about that.
'But I'll go to a foreign land if you accept Beguine, to a faraway place. Tourenne is many miles from Paris.
— Well, it's true. But there are further afield. Also you need a suitable husband, to protect you from the dangers of this world and Arsène is right in my opinion. Well do not forget that you kidnapped twice the bastard of Provence, whose name I can’t even pronounce. And now apparently is back in Paris, oh, there will be no peace until you leave from here and the good knight care and protect you from all evil.
Wise words. More convincing , than the pleas of his mother. The Beguine was right, was not sure in Paris, and if that gentleman insisted ... He had not forgotten, and did not know what kind of spell had made him so powerful, why could not forget him or stop thinking about him. Despite his cowardice, his dishonest intentions. Agnes was afraid and wanted to see him, and I knew it could not happen because end yielding to their whims. And I could see her future lover turned into Count of Montpellier. His parents die of disgust what she could be happy? He doubted it. So better take this bandit head and heart sooner.
By mid afternoon Agnes had made a decision and their parents were the first to know.
Oh dear, you have made a wise decision, 'said his mother excitedly.
— Talk to the gentleman immediately Gauvin said his father fearing that her daughter repent.
Lots to do, a wedding should be organized without haste, the suit, the banquet, the church ...
CHAPTER 5.
In the royal palace reigned concern. The prisoner should be executed after Kings but shortly before that happened made a confession. He said he was innocent of the scriptures and kissed the cross and cried desperately begging forgiveness.
The king visited him in his cell and then spoke to his closest knights, but Arsène was not among them. I was beginning to have serious doubts. What if perhaps it was not the sorcerer?
Her Majesty, the city lives in peace without strange happenings. Perhaps moved by despair prisoner denies everything.
But the king had his doubts and sent a messenger to the kingdom of Aragon, hitherto suspending execution of the prisoner.
Hearing, Arsène paled. His bright future together with Agnes, who finally had accepted him was like a dream that slowly began to fade. He cursed his luck and regretted having left till Christmas, thinking I had to leave before Tourenne ...
He had to do something, anything before the deception was discovered and fell from grace.
