Chapter 142: Finally ......
Jacques and Lily sat at opposite ends of the bed, silent.
Lily remembered Marianne's meaningful smile just now, and her face flushed.
What is called camping last night is to borrow me to warm the bed!
What do you mean to give him back today!
Marianne is getting more and more excessive!
Dislike!
Jacques handed Lily a sheepskin wallet at hand, and said, "This was sent by Sister Marianne when you were taking a shower just now, and said it was for you." ”
"It's 11 o'clock. ”
"There's a little gas lamp at the head of the bed, and if you want to see it, you can turn it on. Then I'll go turn off the lights first. ”
"Good...... All right. ”
The lights went out, and there was a stumbling in the darkness, and two figures burrowed into the bed.
"That...... Jacques, where's the switch for the bedside lamp?"
"On the lamp. ”
"I, I can't touch ......"
"On it, of course you can't reach it if you hide under the covers. ”
"Don't look at it...... Still can't find ......."
"Forget it, I'll do it. ”
“......”
Click...... Click
A bean-like glimmer of fire lit up.
The gas lamp initially flickered a little.
Lily blinked vigorously to see the body standing above her, reaching out to turn on the light.
Jacques supported himself with his right hand, turned on the light with his left hand, and looked down slightly to meet Lily's eyes.
After stiffening for half a minute, Lily finally spoke: "Turn off the lights!"
Jacques flicked his left hand, which had been on the switch, and the room was dark again.
However, the two pairs of eyes were exceptionally bright.
"Hold Me ......"
Lily struggled to make a low, inaudible sound.
Jacques' left hand was lowered.
The lips met, as if nervous, and a soft grunt came out.
"Stupid apprentice, I touched my teeth. Don't speak, hold me tight. ”
"Hmm......"
Fat Orange: The Emperor doesn't peek! The Emperor goes to the city.
......
The sun poured in through the curtains, and Jacques blinked and woke up.
Strange room, so heavy on the body, left arm ...... I can't move my left arm!
Looking down, I saw Lily's messy blonde hair, her head resting on Jacques's chest.
Ring!
The ring is still there!
Wait a minute...... It's not a dream...... Right?
Lily was awakened by Jacques' twitching of her left arm, and her pretty face lifted from Jacques and turned to look at her lover.
Smile!
Suddenly remembering something, he stretched out his left hand and wiped it on the corner of his mouth, blushing with shame, and then grabbed the quilt and wiped it Jacques's chest.
"It hurts! You light, I'm much more fragile than you, my leakless body has just condensed. ”
"Let you laugh at me! People are just drooling! What's the matter? No!"
"I didn't laugh at you drooling!"
"You just have!
"I shot back!"
"Here you go!"
Fat Orange: You're not done! Okay! The Emperor will go to the city again!
......
When the two of them packed up and went out, Garman was already waiting outside the door.
At this time, Garman's eyes were swollen with crying, and he lowered his head to speak.
Lily hurriedly stepped forward to grab her and comforted, "Don't worry, we will definitely find a way to rescue the nameless." ”
Jacques also added: "I have already thought about it, there is no way in the city, but they have to escort Nameless to Stuart for trial, thousands of miles to Yorktown, we always have a chance to rescue them." Don't be too sad, keep your spirits up, we're ready to go. ”
Seeing that Jacques was confident, Lily still expressed her worries: "If we set off again, we may lack trustworthy manpower, and the other five mercenaries I don't think they will help us save people, they only took the money to escort them to York City, and they know that they are repeat offenders, I'm afraid they are trying their best to get rid of their involvement at this time." ”
Jacques naturally thought about it a long time ago: "That's right, I want to dismiss those entourages, maybe I'll leave little Duane alone, I think this little guy is quite clever." Good character, too"
"You're not a few years older than the others. That's right, he can stay. But just the four of us, how can we save people?"
"Honey, don't worry about saving people, I have a way, have you forgotten that space? What if they go to Yorktown and be nameless?" Jacques shaved Lily's smooth face.
"Oops...... As soon as I come, you will stimulate me, a lonely person, it's too inauthentic, I can't stay here, I'll go...... I'll go!" Marianne, who turned into the flower hall, exaggerated her disgust at the intimate actions of the young couple.
"Sister Marianne, don't you want to go......" Lily hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed the corner of her clothes.
"Don't ...... This is the work of Gabriel, a famous designer in the imperial capital, don't break it for me, I can't leave it.
Gee...... Look at this little face ruddy, sister, I have to find a man to marry quickly, otherwise it will be depreciated in vain, there is nowhere to make up for it, and the accumulated depreciation account is about to explode. Mary quipped.
Although Lily couldn't understand the words of the merchants, she knew that Marianne was making fun of herself, and her face was flushed with shame.
Jacques stepped forward and said, "Sister Marianne is here, I have something to trouble you, can you find a convenient place to discuss it in detail?"
Marianne still didn't give up: "Yes, but your Lily is willing to lend you to me?"
Lily naturally understood what Jacques wanted to talk about, pulled Marianne's skirt and shook her hand and said, "Let's talk about business, sister, I'll talk about it too." ”
"Okay! you can play, come with me to my study. ”
......
In the study, Marianne made three cups of coffee with her own hands, put away her hippie smile, and said solemnly: "I know what you want to ask me." It's just why the West family wants to accompany you on the adventure?"
Jacques also said solemnly: "Because this so-called thought prisoner and rebel is doing the right thing! I don't want a man with lofty ideals to die because of his ideals." ”
Marianne put down the coffee cup and stared at Jacques's eyes, Lily was also full of surprise, not understanding why Jacques would say such a thing, and the cup held up to her mouth was hanging like this, hanging.
Jacques said slowly: "Actually, I have communicated this question with Nameless, that is, Martin, you can also say that I was infected by his thoughts, but listen to me slowly. ”
The fat orange squatting on the patio basking in the sun snorted softly: Phew!
In fact, most revolutionaries like Nameless were influenced by some of the books that circulated in Stuart and the imperial capital.
Although they are all called revolutionaries, they are also divided into several factions, and each has different demands.
Let me give you a few examples:
For example, the most radical faction among them thinks that the aristocracy and the capitalists, and the word capitalist means that you, Sister Marianne, are capitalists. They believe that the aristocracy and the capitalists have created inequality between people, and that ordinary people are being exploited and oppressed, so they have to rise up and rebel and fight.
This is just the most radical faction.
There are also factions that believe that the aristocracy is a vampire that drags down the whole society, and that there should be a more level playing field, in which everyone competes with each other, and a part of the elite leads the development of humanity.
This faction is actually mostly capitalists and middle-class people like you.
There is also a sub-faction of this faction that believes that the people of the New World should not be ruled by the Empire, especially the Imperial Family, which has no de jure jurisdiction in the New World.
When the New World was discovered, this land belonged to all human beings, and many people left their homes to work hard here, and worked hard for several generations to build the New World, and the royal family and the two principalities did nothing, but arranged so many tax collectors to collect money everywhere.
The empire only enjoys the provisions of the New World, but does not pay even a single silver coin to the people of the New World.
Therefore, the New World should no longer pay taxes like the Empire, and should even form a state of its own consisting of New Worlders, or a semi-independent principality like the Duchy of Stuart and the Duchy of Castia.
Nameless, that is, Martin is a believer in this faction, and as for the killing of the commander, there is another reason for this, and if I want to save him, he can explain it well.
You see, I don't think his thinking is wrong.
I don't think that's wrong, Sister Marianne, do you? You might still think it's too late to meet this Mr. Martin, right?"
