Volume 1 Once Upon a Time in the South is difficult for a strong man

Alvin had eaten and drunk well last night, and when he woke up and thought that he still had important things to do today, he got up and dressed neatly. Before he could get out of the bedroom door, the housekeeper knocked on the door and said that a guest had been waiting in the outer hall for a while.

Alvin shook his head and headed straight to the antechamber, where he found Langyun already waiting for him.

"You're here so early. Alvin sighed.

"Your Highness, you asked me to come early in the morning. Have you forgotten?" Langyun smiled helplessly.

Alvin also nodded helplessly, it was hard to say that he was drunk and talking nonsense, and he was going to do business with him, so he didn't say much.

Last night, Laiwu and the others complained that the task on Erwin's side was too light, and they were reassigned to Alvin to do a lot of work. Buying supplies for these hundreds of people, the task fell to Alvin at once. He also had to print out the military flag of the Quartet Mercenary Group, which had to be handed over to the Military Affairs Office for backup.

Anyway, all kinds of bits and pieces of work were handed over to Alvin last night, which made him quite annoyed, but fortunately, Langyun offered to play his deputy on his side in time, and Alvin didn't have a seizure on the spot. Originally, Xia Ye also wanted to come, but he was stopped by Laiwu and had to go to the racecourse to audit the personnel behind.

The two of them had too many things to do today, so they simply didn't eat breakfast and went straight out. When he left the Earl's Court, he was stopped by a well-made oak carriage.

As soon as the car door opened, a female magician in a gray robe appeared.

She walked up to Alwin, glanced at him, and whispered, "Are you Alwin?"

Alvin nodded.

"Come with me, someone wants to see you. The gray-robed mage handed Alwyn a delicately crafted wooden box, and turned back to the cart, but with a crisp posture.

When Alvin opened the wooden box, he saw that it was a square scarf. He sniffed lightly, and knew who he was going to meet.

Before leaving, he handed a bag of Looney to Langyun and told him to take care of things. According to Alvin's understanding, Langyun must be better at these small things than he is good at.

Langyun nodded in agreement, watched the carriage that Alvin was sitting in, and secretly sighed, "Your Highness really has many lovers." ”

--------------------------------------------------------------------

The carriage turned onto Phoenix Avenue and headed straight for the palace, which was expected by Alvin. After the guards of the palace saw the token in the hand of the gray-robed female mage, they only let it go after a routine inspection, and they were not embarrassed.

Usually in the palace, only the king can ride in a carriage, and he did not expect that holding the princess's token also has such a privilege. Thinking of the princess's status in the king's heart, Alvin secretly smacked his tongue, for a person like him who has only had the opportunity to walk in this palace once in a few years, the honor of riding a carriage through the palace avenue made him a little unacceptable for a while.

The carriage stopped in front of a quiet and chic dormitory, and Alwyn followed the gray-robed mage briskly from the hall to the door of the princess's room on the second floor. Along the way, many palace attendants were surprised to see Alvin.

The gray-robed mage stood guard outside the door, letting Alwyn go in alone.

He was short of breath when he pushed open the door, took a deep breath and feigned composure, his hands trembling because of nervousness or excitement.

After entering the room, he finally saw the woman he had been thinking about all these days. I saw her reclining in front of the carved window, wrapped in a thick velvet sweater, but she couldn't hide her delicate figure. The snow hair had lost its former luster, and those golden eyes were full of tiredness, and there was no blood on the lips.

Alvin just looked at her quietly, not knowing what to say for a moment. Presumably, he also knew that she had seen that "instant ice flame".

"Your Highness. Alvin hesitated and spoke first.

"Coming?" O'Nian didn't turn to look at him, and whispered, "Sit down." ”

Alvin sat down on the single couch by the window.

But as soon as she had said this, the princess covered her mouth and coughed. Alwyn didn't want to get up until she saw this, but she waved her hand to signal Alwyn to continue sitting.

"I have something to tell you. Onian said lightly, still looking out the window.

"What's the matter? Your Highness. Alvin asked.

"The war ahead is urgent, and my father will lead a large army to Maine tomorrow to meet the Tingxiao people. Onian whispered.

Alwyn nodded, thinking that His Majesty's efficiency in mobilizing the army was still very high.

"I begged my father several times, but he didn't want to take me to the front. The princess then turned her head to look at Alwin, "I have spoken to Mr. Pyro a few times, and he has also let me recuperate in Saliushi. ”

"What do you mean, Your Highness?" Alvin looked at Onian's face, and he thought to himself that the princess's injury this time must have been extremely serious, otherwise she would not have looked so haggard.

"I heard that you and your unscrupulous friends formed a mercenary group?" Ornian asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Your Highness, you don't mean to say ... Alvin was taken aback.

Onian nodded, "Yes, neither my father nor my teacher are willing to take me, so I can only look for you." ”

"How can this be, Your Highness. Alvin stood up anxiously, "You're seriously injured, and if there's anything wrong along the way, I... ”

"Have you forgotten how many times I saved you?" said Onian, looking coldly at Alwin.

Alvin choked back at this sentence, the princess saved him from danger several times at the Pillow Sword Meeting, and he really did not repay this kindness. He lowered his head and didn't dare to reply, after all, looking at the princess's current physical condition, it was really not suitable to go out with the army. He thought to himself, if something happened on the way, then His Majesty the King and Master Pilo would definitely not let him go, and Laiwu and the others would probably have to be implicated.

"Don't worry, I'm getting better. Won't drag you down. O'Ann clicked through Alwin's thoughts.

"Your Highness, don't bluff me. Your lips are white as if they were covered in flour, how much better do you look like now?" said Alwin.

"What do you want, do you think I'm here to discuss with you?" Onien's momentum changed, and a fierce look appeared in her golden eyes.

Alwyn was stunned by her, he had never seen Onian look like this, even the last time she jumped on his shoulder and bit it, it wasn't like this. After the semi-finals that day, Onian and him had a lot of points.

"You have to agree to this matter, and if you don't agree, you have to agree, I didn't come to you to discuss it today. O'Ann stopped looking at him and looked back out the window, "This time you're going to write off what you owe me." ”

"No, I don't understand. Alvin was puzzled, "Why do you have to go, Your Highness, this time to fight the Tingxiao people?

O'Ann coughed a few more times before he calmed down and whispered, "Now it's claimed that Gaph Ressa was only like that when he was hit by the potion of the Tingxiao people, but I asked my father and teacher, and they didn't say who did it. If I had to deduce, it should be a minister in the court, but it should not be Prince Ressa. ”

Alwin remembered the conversation he had with his father that day.

But Prince Ressa was humiliated and returned to Maine this time, and it was inevitable that there would be resentment in his heart. The princess said, "My father and the emperor led a large army to Maine, one is to defend against the invading Tingxiao people, and there is another purpose, what do you say?"

"Your Highness, you mean that Your Majesty still wants to... Only then did Alvin understand that the king was planning to take advantage of the situation to cut off Prince Ressa's power this time. However, he was surprised that the princess would tell him this.

Onien didn't answer him, Gu sighed to himself, "So you said that I can't go with me this time? There are Tingxiao people in the front, Prince Resa in the back, and there are ministers around him. ”

"But Princess, your injuries are not healed yet, and you can't do anything if you go. Alvin persuaded.

O'Neien didn't explain much, just turned to glare at Alwin, staring at him coldly without saying a word.

Alwin felt a chill down his spine from her staring, and he felt like someone had pulled his shirt out of his shirt on this cold day, and hail fell on his back, and he couldn't help but shiver.

"Well, Princess, whatever you say, you can be. Alvin said helplessly, "Anyway, it's all my fault for using the Spring Lai Fox Potion, otherwise Your Highness, you wouldn't have lost half your life." I owe it to you. ”

Ignoring his bitterness, Onian raised the corners of her mouth and looked at him and asked, "If my father and the emperor start a fight with Prince Ressa this time, what will you do with your Lan girl?"

"I'm a little person, what can I do?" replied Alwyn angrily. But he thought in his heart that if there was really that day, he might go to find her alone, and if he had a chance, he would escape together, and if he didn't have a chance, he would die together.

"Oh, I'm afraid you've already started planning to find her. O'Ann pierced him mercilessly.

"I don't think I can't hide anything from you. Alvin looked at her with a look of annoyance.

This is perhaps where smart women fascinate and frighten men. Especially a smart woman like Oneon, who looks like nothing else. Alwyn lamented that he would have to die at the hands of such a woman sooner or later.

"Have you ever wondered what would happen if Prince Ressa had won?" asked Aonien, looking up at him.

He thought about it for a while, sighed, "Then I don't know", and then stretched out in the sofa, and smiled bitterly: "When the time comes, I'm just afraid that I'll have to run away with you, the exiled princess." ”

Onian couldn't help but laugh out loud when she heard this, this was the first time I had seen such a smile on her face today, "Then should I thank you? ”

Alvin was actually very scared in his heart, and he was afraid of any situation. However, he is still the same sentence, he is just a small person, for the contest between these monstrous magnates, he is at most a humble bystander, and nothing can be changed. Thinking about this made Alvin very discouraged and hurt.

"Let's not talk about these things yet. I thought about it carefully, what if you are mixed in my mercenary group of five hundred people, what if you go to the front line and are discovered by the Tingxiao people?" Alvin frowned and asked, "Your appearance with snow-haired golden eyes is too recognizable, right? ”

"Are you stupid, have you forgotten that I've studied potions for so many years, and it's not easy to dye my hair?" said Oneon, scoffing.

"But we're all big men, are you going to disguise yourself as a man?" Alvin asked.

"Look at my mood. O'Ann laughed, "And if you know about it, your friends don't have to know." There are a lot of people, and you don't want this news to leak out casually. ”

"But people aren't blind or stupid. Alwin's eyes widened.

"Then I can't control that much, you can figure it out. "O'Ann is a scoundrel, and he can't do anything about it.

Alvin was angry, and then asked, "Your Highness, you are so seriously injured, who will take care of you along the way?" Do you have to bring some accompanying maids to take care of your daily life?"

"No, none. Oneen looked at Alwyn with a smile and said, "This princess will be taken care of by you this time, if I have three long and two short on the way, you can find a way to explain it to your father." Besides, if I bring so many people, isn't it easier for people to notice? ”

Seeing Alwin's distressed look, the princess was a little proud, but before she could be proud, she coughed violently. Alvin tried to help her to the bed to rest, but she slapped her hand away.

"Don't touch me, I'm not the lady of the palace, let you knead it. Onen said coldly.

This was just a good point, but in an instant this person became cold again, and Alvin couldn't adapt to it.

Onian himself slipped into the bed, leaving only a small face exposed.

Alvin shook his head helplessly, "Your Highness, where will we meet tomorrow?"

"Aren't you the deputy head of the regiment? Onian said with a wink.

"Then wait for me at eight o'clock in the morning, at the gate of the Earl's Court?" Alvin asked, calculating the time.

Onian nodded, then waved his hand without looking at Alwyn and sent him out.
