Chapter XVII: The Summons of Her Majesty

The next day, before the sun rose and the imperial capital became a suburb, many people were awakened by the dazzling light in their dreams.

This light is not as ephemeral as fireworks, not as precious as the glow of a treasure, but as warm and bright as real sunlight, no, not only that, it is more hopeful than the sun, close to it, as if you can hear the murmur of the ancient gods, vague, pious, blessings and prayers.

"Oh my God, what's going on?"

"The gods have fallen, and there is no light, it has been ten thousand years!"

"Could it be that the darkness is raging, and the gods have taken pity on our people and sent messengers to save us......"

More and more people walked out of their homes and followed this light to the Golden Lane, and even the gate of the imperial capital, which has always been open at sunrise, was opened early today to facilitate the shuttle of the guards who came and went.

Sure enough, when it comes to making trouble, the Tarot Great Demon King with a black belly has experience. Under his suggestion, overnight, the entire imperial capital was stirred up. Su Ya quickly rose from the alchemy master to the height of the messenger of the gods, and now some people swear that the reason why Su Ya's alchemy is so different is because she has long been guided by the gods. The proof is that when Su Ya's envoy is often alone, he mutters to himself in the air, which must be communicating with the gods!

This guard is so bold that he dares to talk about his rights and wrongs, and when Su Ya wakes up, he must find a fault and let Su Ya replace him! Just find an excuse so that Su Ya will not think that he is cautious? The Tarot Great Demon King sat on the throne in the space and fell into deep thought.

It was dawn, and Su Ya, who had stayed up all night and half a night, got up from the bed groggy, washed her face and brushed her teeth mechanically, dragged her slippers with a glass of milk, and pushed open the door, intending to see the propaganda effect of the Scepter of Light - she practiced it in the middle of the night last night, and then stuck it in front of the ice tower, and then went to sleep.

But I didn't hear any noise outside. Doesn't seem to be paying attention, or is she waking up early?

Su Ya thought about it with a wooden head, lowered her head and took a sip of milk, and waited for the castle gate to be fully opened, before she raised her eyes and looked in the direction of the ice tower, as a result, not to mention the scepter of light, not even the tall ice tower did not see a single horn.

into the eyes. It's all people.

Men, women, young and old, each looked at her and smiled. The uniform movements gave Su Ya an urge to close the door again: this kind of caring eyes that want to hold you in her arms and knead it fiercely, after the age of twelve, she has not experienced it from her elders!

What's going on today?!

Su Ya was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously waved her hand to everyone: "Hey, good morning!"

Seeing this, the crowd of onlookers began to make noise. Their mouths responded with "Good morning, Lord Suya", waving their hands, moving their feet, and the people in the back crowded the people in front. The scene is about to get out of hand.

Little Mr. Raymond appeared with a smile on his face, and outside the crowd, he bowed respectfully to Su Ya, and then stretched out his hand to make an inviting gesture: "Lord Su Ya." This is Miss Martha, the Empress's envoy, who has brought a message from Her Majesty the Empress, and needs to be briefed on you individually. ”

Since Her Majesty also wants to see the excitement. No one can compete with her!

The onlookers who were still shouting just now obediently got out of the way, let little Raymond enter the castle with the empress's envoys, close the gate, and then continue to block the gate - a good position to stand in line in the middle of the night, hey, don't wait to watch Lord Su Ya again, it's a good loss!

Inside the castle, little Raymond stayed in the outer room evasively, and Su Ya took the envoy Martha straight into the internal reception room.

It wasn't until Su Ya closed the door that Miss Martha, who had been wearing a businesslike expression, showed a smile: "Hello Su Ya, I'm Margaret's aunt, Martha." ”

Su Ya's originally tense heart was relaxed, and she also returned her with a big smile: "Aunt Martha, Margaret always mentions you, she said that the person she admires the most is you, and I have long wanted to meet you, but I have never had the opportunity," she said, and seriously gave Martha a lady's salute, "These days, thanks to your care, thank you for your kindness, I will give you a salute." ”

These days, if it weren't for Lady Martha's female officer risking her to mediate and deliver news for her by the empress's side, Su Ya's eyes would be black outside, and I am afraid that life would have been more anxious.

"Don't dare," Martha's lady quickly pulled her up and looked at her with a loving expression, "I have known about your affairs in the City of Time, Brooke admires your talents, and you take good care of Margaret, and I am only helping you to repay the friendship." It's a pity that I've been working the purchase of magic jewelry, but I really haven't helped much. Other things, even less to mention. ”

"I am very grateful that you have taken the initiative to speak, Her Majesty the Empress is not a good talker. "Su Ya is not a person who doesn't know what to do, whether she helps or not is an attitude, whether she helps or not depends on her ability, Her Majesty the Empress is a person who plans to destroy a country with a wave of her hand, and those who dare to touch her tiger whiskers are considered warriors, Miss Martha is still very powerful.

Hearing the sincerity in her words, the female officer Martha was no longer modest, but sighed and said with a smile: "I thought that today's children are like Margaret, and the noise hurts people's heads. ”

"Margaret is actually quite good, she recently helped Lolita in the Colosseum, explained together, and did a very good job," Su Ya comforted very thoughtfully, "She made a fuss in front of you, just wanted to be coquettish, which shows that she is close to you." ”

"Good boy," Martha said with a slight exaggeration in her heart, "don't comfort me, the more you comfort me, the more uncomfortable it becomes, let's get down to business." ”

Su Ya was amused by her, and it took a long time before she couldn't help laughing: "Cheng, talk about business, you say." ”

"Her Majesty the Empress wants to summon you. ”

I waited too long for this sentence, and when I really heard it, Su Ya was a little in a trance: "What did you say?"

Lady Martha repeated it again, seeing Su Ya nodding stiffly, thinking that she was afraid, she stepped forward, took her hand and patted it: "Don't be afraid, you go this time, there will be no danger, although I can't figure out Her Majesty's thoughts, but she ordered me to come to you because she wanted to ask why the light magic appeared in you, and it didn't look like she was planning to attack you." Moreover, I deliberately chose a large number of occasions for Mr. Raymond to announce the summoning of the matter, and at that time, even if Her Majesty wanted to change her mind temporarily, she had to take care of her reputation, as long as you did not take the initiative to make mistakes, she could not help you. ”

"Thank you Aunt Martha for planning for me, I'm fine, just a little nervous. So, when is the summons?"

"You are ready to go with me to the palace," Martha's lady glanced at the clock, "it is seven o'clock in the morning, and Her Majesty the Empress will summon you when she finishes her affairs at about ten o'clock." ”

"So fast?" Su Ya licked her lips, "I thought she wouldn't summon me until the day of the birthday party......"

"How is it possible, you don't look at what you are making of outside, I guess you, the initiator, only slept until dawn," Martha's female official pointed to her dark circles, "I was called to the palace for an urgent meeting in the middle of the night." ”

"Ahaha-" Su Ya snorted awkwardly, reaching out and pulling at her bangs that were a little warped, "I'm sorry, Aunt Martha, how did I know this would happen, I used to refine magic jewelry, and I was in the Colosseum again, Her Majesty was not interested at all, and she didn't squeak, I thought she wouldn't be very excited this time!"

"The magic of the light system has not appeared for thousands of years, and the dark goblins are the great enemies of mankind, and the people know that the 'Scepter of Light' has appeared here, and they feel that victory is possible, and they are very excited. Lady Martha pursed her lips before continuing, "Her Majesty naturally can't ignore it. ”

This sentence seemed to have a deep meaning, Su Ya raised her eyes to look at the female official Martha, the female official Martha just smiled and shook her head, and did not plan to elaborate, but said: "As the empress envoy, in addition to informing you of this summons, I am also responsible for explaining to you the basic etiquette of meeting Her Majesty the Empress. If you make a mistake, I'm going to be trained together. ”

"Ah, really?" Su Ya was startled, and hurriedly leaned on the table to find the paper, "You wait, I'll find something to remember." ”

Lady Martha grabbed her: "It's not that troublesome, I think you do a good job of the basic rules, the posture of bowing to me just now is very standard, I learned it from Alice, right? Then I just need to tell you about the Empress's personality and some tips." There are some things that can only be understood, not spoken, as long as you have heard them. ”

It sounded very mysterious, Su Ya nodded vigorously: "You say, I remember, I promise not to tell others!"

So, Martha's female officials said a lot of things like this and this, most of them said a lot of past events of the empress in the form of allusions, and these past events revealed the character of many empresses, as for what this character is, it really depends on Su Ya's own understanding. As she spoke, Martha's female officer did not forget to look at the clock on the wall, and when she saw that the hands of the clock were pointing to the figure eight, she stopped and said: "It's eight o'clock, it's not early, you quickly change your clothes and go to the palace with me." ”
