423 Secrets of the East (7)
The bright sunlight shines down from the towering buildings at the top of the city,
"Tapping" There was a crisp sound of horses' hooves trampling on gravel, and hundreds of Kugit light cavalry wearing chain mail galloped past the fat man with a stern expression.
The triangular squadron battle flag at the front of the front is constantly undulating, and the battle armor makes a loud metal collision sound with the leaping of the war horse.
The horse team marched through the winding mountain streets for nearly an hour,
Along the way, it can be described as murderous, and the cold and stern expression of the Kugit cavalry makes the air more and more solemn
The whole city is under martial law, and there are no troops on the streets,
The cold armor and galloping horses passed by the horse team from time to time, and the desolate atmosphere before the big battle made the bright sunlight in the air seem cold.
"Pull up" On the blue-gray wall of Tulga, piles of heavy fortification equipment were shouted by Kugit soldiers and hung on the top of the city with ropes
The fat man's war horse deliberately leaned in the direction of the carriage carrying Mao Mo Allen
The murderous Kugit cavalry that kept passing outside undoubtedly made Mao Mo Allen in the carriage feel a burst of speculation
Princess Celess felt a little dissatisfied
"Am I really that annoying you that much about the falcon that soaring in the sky?"
There is a hint of inexplicable love in the beautiful pretty eyes,
Suddenly, a huge sound of water came from outside the city, and all the soldiers on the city stopped and craned their necks to look outside the city wall.
"What's going on?" the fat man stopped at his horse, at a corner of the streets of Cloudsdale above the flat battlements,
The fat man saw that the plain outside the city was originally unsafe, but at the moment it was flashing with sparkling water,
The large lakes outside the city that were used to store water were actually dug by the Kujits to separate the dikes.
Connected to a whole outside the city, it is like forming a circular moat outside the city in the clouds,
Tulga, which originally seemed to be unsafe, suddenly became a super fortress that was easy to defend and difficult to attack
This strange change was undoubtedly planned when it was built.
A lake on weekdays, a river in wartime,
The ingenious wisdom contained in it is breathtaking even for the fat man, a modern person.
The Kugit Guard, who "stopped" and led the way, waved his hand, and the horse team stopped in front of a huge iron gate on the top of the third floor of Cloud City.
In front of the black and heavy gate, dozens of Kugit soldiers in iron armor were checking the people at the door, and they saw that it was the horse team of the princess of the royal court, Scelis,
Quickly ran over a dozen strong soldiers, and together pushed open two heavy iron doors more than ten meters high,
The "creaking" heavy iron door slowly opened after a screeching friction sound, revealing the second-floor aristocratic area,
The neat and eye-catching white-walled and red-roofed buildings, against the backdrop of the blue sky and blue sky, reflect the eyelids of the fat man,
The green evergreen walls spread in circles until they reached the periphery of the cascading buildings with white walls and red roofs.
At the corner of the second-story mountain, the fat man saw more than a dozen large fountains that were pleasing to the eye.
The crystal clear water droplets in the sun, like a string of pearls hanging in the air, reflect the beautiful mountain scenery, and the cool mountain breeze blows on the face, which makes people feel more and more relaxed
The horse team followed the tinkling water that sprayed from the top of the hill and finally stopped in front of a large courtyard in the lower left corner of the second floor.
The princess's mansion in Celes is the best location in the entire aristocratic district, and only those who are above the three poles of the Laren warriors, or who hold the rank of flag commander or above in the royal court, are eligible to live there.
But compared to the status of the princess of the royal court of Scelis, it is very embarrassing to be arranged here
The fat man didn't know yet, because Scelis set fire to Mount Rudato some time ago, and the royal court deprived her of the right to live at the top,
This is also what makes Scelis feel the most indignant,
A prominent princess of the royal court, but living on the second floor where the nobles live, no matter where she is, is undoubtedly a humiliation of the royal status. (Octave.)
Thinking of her palatial and embarrassing mansion, Celess couldn't help but feel a little annoyed in her heart,
"It's all this dead fat man" Scelis stared at the fat man with an unnatural face, but she was almost stunned by what was in front of her,
The dead fat man who was drooping his head was waving his hands like a naughty little boy who was showing off, talking happily with the girl in the carriage.
"Hehe" The girl's silver bell-like laughter floated in the air, like needles floating into Scelis's ears,
The seizure of the fat man was just a temporary idea of Scelis,
I felt that because of the fat man's words, I ventured back from the south in a hurry,
As a result, instead of working, it inadvertently became the object of the black pot.
If you don't tease this fat guy with a bad belly, you will always be a little unwilling,
But it didn't take long for the calm Celess to regret it,
Fat people are no ordinary people
The famous Grand Duke of Vekia, a character who can make the continent look at it by stomping his feet in the south of the continent,
Behind him is a powerful southern power that is on the rise, a 100,000-strong Vekian army that is accustomed to war,
Tens of thousands of solemn waiting for the army are waiting for orders on the border at this moment,
Mishandled one of their own,
But it was not just an embarrassing political incident, but a big crisis that made the royal court, which had fallen into a desperate situation, collapse again
"What should I do?" Looking at the fat man who was talking and laughing not far away, the warm and ambiguous atmosphere between him and the girl made Scelis's teeth itch,
"Dead fatty, I won't let you go," Spices gritted her teeth, and the whip in her hand waved a gray shadow in the air,
But apart from being able to pump the empty air to relieve her hatred, she had no way at all.
"It's really a headache" Celelise turned her head with an ugly face, and her eyes suddenly fixed on a few horses parked in her mansion,
The already pale face quickly turned into anger,
The chrysanthemum grass coat of arms on the crotches of several war horses was like a needle, reflecting the constricted pupils of Celeris,
"What's going on outside my mansion, how can there be a Hulun Kema from the East Courtyard" Scelis scolded loudly, and the horsewhip in her hand slapped a guard in the face,
"Ahh
They are the guards of the princess's house, and it is their duty to keep their masters safe,
It is also their duty to bear the wrath of their masters, which is not a very uncommon thing in Kugit
"Damn it, damn it," Scelis cursed in a low voice, and the whip in her hand kept rising in the air, turning into bloody whip marks on the guards,
It seems that he wants to vent all the frustration in his heart
Enough of a strong male voice sounded in Scelis's ears, and Scelis raised her horsewhip and suddenly stopped in mid-air,
"You, you. Let go ......" Scelis twitched hard, the whip in her hand seemed to be clamped by a pair of iron tongs, and she didn't move, and the angry Scelis turned red
The fat man didn't know when he stood next to Scelis, his thick palm tightly gripping the other side of the horsewhip, and a pair of bright eyes, like a sharp sword piercing the void,
The original naïve state has long been gone,
Instead, there was an indescribable feeling of pressure that sent chills down the spine in Spice
"Whatever the reason, you can't insult a warrior who is loyal to you in such a way," the fat man said with a stern expression
"Okay, I'm not going to fight, you let go......! Horsewhip...... You can't take it. Celelise looked at the fat man's hand holding the whip, and her face suddenly turned red,
The voice is also thin and difficult to hear, as if there is something difficult to explain
"No, a violent woman like you, I don't worry, I'll leave it to me for safekeeping" The fat man whipped the horsewhip unrelentingly,
In front of Scelis's bulging eyes, he put it into his clothes
"You, you're ......" Celelis's angry eyes almost didn't bulge, and her face was so red that she was about to drip blood,
"The princess and princess are not far away, the housekeeper of the mansion ran over from a distance with a panicked face, he was sweating profusely, panting and saying You are back for a big matter, the king just came and said that the east garden of the mansion will be temporarily used as the residence of the envoy of the east court......"
"What?, the residence of the envoy of the Eastern Court," Scelis turned her head and said with a look of resentment, not even the horsewhip that the fat man had taken, and asked directly by pointing at the butler
"Whose decision is this?, you are so bold, you dare to ......" Celelis's arm was raised, only to realize that her hand was empty, and then she remembered that the horsewhip had been dodged by the hateful fat man, and had to give up,
"Dead fat," Scelis scolded in a strange low, and her face turned red again
The butler understood his master's habits, and when he saw Scelis's raised arms, he hurriedly held his head in his hands,
Who knew that after waiting for a while, nothing happened, and he couldn't help but raise his head curiously, but what he saw was Scelis's red face
"What's the situation?" the butler was confused, and hurriedly commanded the guards to help the injured guards down, and said with a bitter face, "Princess, this is a royal order from the royal court himself."
The subordinates also know the blood feud between Dongting and the princess,
But at noon today, when you left the house to make your rounds,
Duo Weiyan, the foreign minister of the royal court, personally came to the palace with the royal decree and announced the decision of the king of Khan.
Now these envoys from the East Court are the most valued guests of the royal court.
Duo Weiyan personally brought the royal order to come, and his subordinates did not dare to forcibly resist the order, so they could only arrange for them to settle in Dongyuan first
"It must be the construction of Duo Weiyan's greedy villain" Scelis gritted her teeth, as if she remembered something, her eyes glanced at the fat man not far away, intentionally or unintentionally, and said in a low voice
"Men are all the same, if it weren't for that demon girl, King Khan would never have made such a ridiculous decision"
"This, it's too wronged" The fat man was extremely depressed by this look, but found that Scelis's gaze seemed to be like a nail,
fixed on themselves, and brighter and brighter
