42.chapter 40 the end

Before Li Yao could stop it, the crown prince had already aimed his sword at the girl and slashed it fiercely-

The expected blood of what came to her face was dripping, but it was not the blood of the girl, but the blood of the monster that suddenly spread its wings to protect her.

The sword in the crown prince's hand was still dripping blood, and no one could understand why an ugly monster would protect this ugly girl who kept instigating others to kill him.

The girl was probably frightened, but now she realized that she had walked between life and death, and sat on the ground with her legs limp. And the monster really had no strength, and kept its wings open and just crawled on the ground, if it weren't for the fact that its chest was still a little undulating, it would be no different from dead.

The girl's little eyes were red with fright, but she still stubbornly looked up at the crown prince:

"Why did you kill me, you said you were going to marry me, you said it, ahhhhh

At the end of the sentence, she roared hoarsely in her horrible voice, the sound between screaming and roaring was not at all human but the cry of some animal.

Perhaps it was this recognizable voice that evoked a little memory of the crown prince, and he lowered his sword and tried to recall: "You seem to be"

The girl looked bad, and her crying appearance was even worse, she wiped her eyes, choked up and said, "I'm Betty, have you forgotten?"

The choking didn't do anything to inspire empathy, it only upset.

The crown prince vaguely remembered that when he and Prince Gert arrived here seven years ago, they had indeed lodged in a farmhouse.

It happened that the youngest daughter of the owner of the farmhouse accidentally got her throat damaged by the smoke, so she cried every day, saying that she was ugly and black, and now she even ruined her throat, and she would definitely not be able to marry in the future, and no one wanted it.

The crown prince had said it jokingly to comfort her, of course, more accurately to shut her up.

The ugly girl heard this, stopped crying, raised her snotty face, and looked at him:

"Really?"

The owner of the farmhouse apologized to him, smiled in fear, and pushed the girl into the back room, but the girl stubbornly turned her head and confirmed again:

"You'll marry me, right?"

Bang. Before she could reply, the door was shut, and the last thing she saw was the swarthy flesh that had piled up on her neck as she turned her head.

Slightly nauseous.

However, it is such a girl who just got the impression of "disgusting", and she still remembers that incident.

After the crown prince remembered, he spoke up from above: "That's just a joke. ”

Hearing him say this, the girl's throat seemed to be strangled by something, and her crying stopped abruptly.

The crown prince was afraid that she didn't hear it, so he repeated again: "That's just me driving it at the time"

"No, no, noβ€”" The girl clutched her head even louder and screamed, tears falling down her cheeks. But on the contrary to "pear blossoms with rain", there is no beauty at all, only annoying.

The crown prince looked at her face, and suddenly lost the patience to say something nice for the sake of being a childhood friend, and said coldly:

"If you still want to rely on me with a joke, don't dream. ”

The girl covered her face, crying breathlessly, and the words she said were also fragmented, and she couldn't write a poem: "Me, I do you know how much thought I put into seeing you again?"

When she said this, she knelt on the ground and gently hugged the monster's wings: "After you left, I have been thinking about you, because you are so noble, and you don't dislike me, and you say that you want to marry me, I am really, so happy." ”

The crown prince impatiently shook the blood from the tip of his sword.

"People laugh at me and bully me, and whenever I am looked down upon, I think of you. She kept her face full of tears and smirked, "I am very disdainful, because my fiancΓ© is a thousand times better than any of them." ”

He scrambled his sword back into its sheath.

"But you always don't come, I'm afraid you've forgotten, and I want to remind you, but I can't see you. ”

"Because I'm just a commoner, a farmer's daughter, and I don't have any identity, there's no way to see you. ”

She turned her head to look at the monster's huge dark eyes: "But fortunately, I found this monster, it is uglier than me, so I like it very much, even if my father does not allow it, I still secretly keep it." ”

"Then one day, I was bullied again, and the boy from the same village cut my favorite dress all over the holes, because he said that ugly bastards should not wear nice clothes, they were ruining things. ”

The more the crown prince listened, the more impatient he became, and was about to interrupt her, but the girl's eyes suddenly turned to him at this moment, and stared at him deadly:

"I'm just not born well, I don't have good looks, but God is fair, it gave me such a good fiancΓ© of yours, didn't you. ”

Her tiny eyes are like poisonous snakes, like a quiet and aggressive madman, who will fight for her life once she gets sick.

"But I can't see you, the person the prince should marry is a princess, so I thought, as long as I become a princess, wouldn't it be good? ”

Her voice became higher and higher, and her emotions became more and more excited: "Legend has it that you don't need any identity to be considered a princess, but a mysterious beauty locked up in a tower-hahahaha!"

She laughed uncontrollably, and her hysterical gruff laughter echoed throughout the tower, until tears broke out of her laughter.

"I'm smart, right, I've been using this ruined tower and this monster and myself for five years. That's right, the message at the beginning was also released by myself. ”

"I didn't think it would be so successful, and that a warrior would show up and kill me and it, but I wasn't afraid of it, because I died on the way to meet you, and that's good. But I didn't expect this lame story to be so successful - so successful that I ended up attracting you. ”

The crown prince was stared at by her back, for fear that she would make some crazy move.

But the girl just stared at him and didn't make too many movements: "I've waited too long for you, I've forgotten my feelings for you for a long time, and I think I'm really a beautiful and noble princess." ”

The monster's eyes blinked, then a huge tear rolled out. The wet eyes were so transparent, clearly indicating that if he could speak, he would definitely say that she was its princess.

The girl rubbed the monster's rough fur: "How nice it would be if you didn't show up, I could live in a sweet dream all the time, without waking up, and it didn't have to lure you up"

The monster that had been staring at her silently blinked, it was so ugly, but its eyes were as bright as mirrors, and it pulled her face very sharp, and it was very beautiful. This gaze had been going on for six years, and it silently watched her grow from a little girl to a big girl. He also silently turned from a small monster to a big monster.

But it hurt too badly, but it gasped for a while, and then slowly, its pupils clouded, and it was no longer angry.

The girl hung her head, her long hair covered her face, and her graceful figure and blonde hair made her look really beautiful.

The crown prince looked at the corpse and couldn't help but say, "It's all your own doing!"

But after saying that, he felt bad, for fear that this ugly woman would go crazy, but she just nodded very sadly, kept choking, and could not say a word again.

The long life in the tower has long since smoothed out the original obsession, and all it needs is a reason to stay here forever.

Although she is very ugly and her family background is not good, she is particularly obsessed with fairy tales. Among them, her favorite is the story of the princess and the evil dragon, because she thinks that in fact, the evil dragon is the one who really loves the princess, but it has no mouth and can't say it.

The dragon could only do its best to chase away the people who wanted to compete with it for the princess, and expressed his feelings in this clumsy way.

That feeling of being loved is the most enviable to her.

She ignored the crown prince and looked up at the sky outside the terrace, how many times she had sat in that chair and watched it fly outside the tower.

Now there are only wind and clouds.

It's really unfair to be ugly, but if you look at this qiΔ“ as a fairy tale, a fairy tale where a princess exchanges her beauty for love, it's also very good.

This fairy tale could have had a happy ending.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

In just one week, the country has been turned upside down.

Beginning with the death of the crown prince and the dragon, the parliament blamed the king for his previous laissez-faire attitude towards the matter, and the Geert faction was given more status.

At the same time, the rise of the civil Reformation, the pope lost power, which directly affected the king's loss of power, and the king's mistress was found to have the Black Death by doctors, which made the king and his court very panicked, and his status also plummeted, and finally had to pass the throne to the eldest son Geert under the emaciation, because Geert was ruthless and decisive, that is, Edward IV.

It seems that the dust has settled, but under the calm on the surface, it must only be the result of the temporary equilibrium of the multi-party power game.

The crown prince said that he was killed by the evil dragon, but the evil dragon and the mysterious princess of the legend also disappeared, and the romantic folklore was finally replaced, and only the history of cruel struggle kept moving forward.

Afterwards, some curious people went to look at the tower covered with maple vines, but even when they reached the top, all they saw was a clump of hay and a chair.

The chair must have been very gorgeous before, but the satin surface had been faded by the sun, and only reflected a soft arc of light in the sun.
