With Aether, it's not so convenient to enter and exit the palace gate.

Originally, the people in charge of the Yongchen Palace were generally a forbidden palace guard led by senior officers of the Knights of Saint Laurent or the Knights of the Aurora Holy Hand, about 3,000 people. However, the newly enthroned "Emperor" of Iken, or the "Empress" born in the Lancaster family, did not trust these Ouchi guards too much. Maybe it's because the five "lawless" and "unsubservient king" legion officers are also colleagues born in Saint Laurent and the Knights of the Aurora Holy Hand (or the same military academy). All of them are diehards of the Sun King, and they are likely to become diehards of the "rebels". To sleep peacefully under the escort of these people, the hearts of the "emperor" and his wife have not yet reached this point.

As a result, within a month, the guards of the Yongchen Palace were replaced by the guards brought by Emperor Iken from his own Cezaire domain. The original Forbidden Palace Guards were directly disbanded. Some of these people left the imperial capital and went to the legion station outside the city to ask for an errand with their classmates, while others simply went directly to the north and simply joined the "rebels".

Of course, their actions made the emperor more confirmed his "wisdom", and that was a sad afterword.

It's a pity that compared to the previous group of guards, this group of newcomers is really far behind in terms of spirit, appearance and height, either a brute like a gorilla, or a reserve robber with a fierce and treacherous gaze like a wolf. Unfortunately, under the feudal system, the "elite soldiers" are often composed of these two kinds of people. The kind of tall and handsome that is sung by legends. Heroic and cool, with a good demeanor. The perfect knight with a noble temperament naturally exists. It's a pity that they are all rare.

The gap between the soldiers of the feudal military system and the soldiers under the modern military system is actually all-round.

As a result, although the members of the guards brought by Emperor Iken all changed into silver forbidden army armor and spring blue cloaks, they always had the feeling of being crowned by monkeys.

Miss Ether always enters the Eternal Palace twice a week, so she is naturally an acquaintance of these guards. Of course, even if these soldiers and ruffians have no brains or discipline, they don't dare to embarrass a royal family teacher and a high-ranking priest of the Great Holy Church. But this time, this goddess official lady brought two little nuns with her for the first time. The soldiers and ruffians wearing the armor of the forbidden army couldn't help but ask a few more questions.

"They are my assistants. Miss Ether pointed to the two "little nuns" who were holding a large number of book scrolls behind her, and replied in a lukewarm tone: "Today's lesson involves the changes in the territory of some continental countries, and requires a lot of map materials. I can't hold that much on my own. ”

"But...... We didn't get such a notice!

"Then let your boss know right away. Her Royal Highness and I have no time to waste. Miss Ethel said in a calm tone. is obviously such a young lady with a baby face, and her tone is so indifferent, but it contains an aura that makes these veteran ruffians unable to look at it directly.

"That...... My lord, we need to check it out. There was an officer who looked like a squad leader.

"Arbitrary, there's no problem with body searches. ”

One of the "little nuns" shuddered at the right time, obviously startled by the word "body search", but the goddess said in a deep voice: "From the moment you decided to serve the gods. Gender and body should not be an obstacle to your devotion and determination. Don't forget how Mama taught you when you were in seminary. ”

The "little nun" lowered her eyebrows and lowered her head in a pleasing manner, no longer trembling, but it was not so much that her doubts were dispelled by the goddess official. It is better to be frightened by the majesty of the other party and dare not tremble anymore.

The team leader looked at the two little "nuns" with some embarrassment, although they both had their heads bowed and wore conservative heads. I can't see the face clearly, but I can clearly see that it's a beauty. Suddenly I was a little unbearable.

How could such a good girl run away to be a nun for no apparent reason? What a terrible thing! Uh...... Look at this thin dress. It doesn't look like you can hide weapons, do you...... It's better to let them live like this.

He was just about to say this, but a voice came from behind him: "Okay, hurry up and bring a few female soldiers over?" Her Majesty the Queen and Her Royal Highness the Princess's guards are all female soldiers, why don't you ask them to send a few over?"

"This, this...... Uh, yes, Lord Cornelia. The team leader cast a helpless look at the goddess officer, and then hurried away.

It's so rude to be down there, Lord Ether, but rules are rules, and I can't choose. The voice said to the goddess again, and the tone was very respectful and not rude, but it was full of undoubted tone: "But I think, since it is the assistant you brought, it is naturally no problem, just check it casually and go through the motions." ”

Ether nodded lukewarmly and said, "This is your rule, naturally you have the final say." Her expression didn't fluctuate at all, as if the other party had nothing to do with her. From this point of view, Miss Goddess's acting skills are definitely at the level of masters...... However, she still glanced at Lu Xi slightly with hidden eyes, and she was still a little worried in her heart.

The rest of her was not at all worried, because the two "nuns" did not carry any weapons at all. But body search is a personal job after all, and it would be very bad if it was discovered that one of the "nuns" was him instead of her.

I knew that I would be an ordinary priest...... Well, but the ordinary little priest looks like this, so it will be more conspicuous. Miss Ethel let out a long sigh in her heart, tense.

Aether was nervous, but Lu Xi kept his head down, continuing to perfectly play the role of a little "nun" with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes. The corner of his eye swept over the person who had just entered, and his heart sank, and then he was happy.

This guy is a handsome guy with silver hair. The tall and heroic young knight looked to be in his early thirties. He was also wrapped in the silver armor of a palace guard. He wore an aqua-blue cloak and a sword at his waist. Of course. The armor has been slightly improved in some subtle places, not only adding patterns representing status and class, but also carving magic patterns in important places such as the chest and elbows. In this way, his armament has become a very good alchemy armor.

All in all, this is the look of the quintessential perfect knight in a legend, at least on the outside. And considering that he is called "Lord Cornelia" by the people below, his identity is naturally revealed.

"This should be one of the four heavenly kings, four monsters, and four spirit generals that Bartoli carried. Lu Xi thought secretly: "Well, a golden 6th-order horse thief? It seems that he should still be the head of the four monsters, but after putting on the armor, he really looks like a knight." ”

Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Lim beside him—to the others. This silent "little nun" with her head down is indeed non-existent, and naturally harmless, but Lu Xi knows that his three-in-the-dark doll Jianhao has now completely entered a state of imminent battle. Although she was unarmed, she could bring down all the defenders of the palace gate in 3 minutes by picking up a few sticks from the side of the road—provided that there was no support, of course, and that the horse thief was born and pretended to be a knight was not there.

"Don't be impatient...... Lu Xi said to Lim in a thoughtful voice.

If you are really taken to a secluded place and searched, the leak is certain. But...... Ordinary female soldiers shouldn't have any strong mental resistance, and they can find a way to use mind control techniques to fool the past. There are too many sequelae of mind control techniques, but it is possible to be noticed by those who have a heart, so it is better to use a small and small-scale illusion. Just be careful not to be spotted by that "Cornelia". That guy was just a horse thief, though. But since the strength has reached the 6th level of gold, at least the spiritual sense will be very keen.

When Lu Xi was calculating, he heard the sound of horses' hooves and the rolling of wheels from the avenue behind him.

Ordinary little "nuns" hear such voices. What will it be? Of course, subconsciously looking at it with curiosity. Then I suddenly realized that this was rude, and I would quickly bury my head again.

Lu Xi made such a judgment. That's how it works. In just a short moment of looking up, he had already seen the team of men and horses, more than ten guards, and a carriage drawn by four horses. Each of the guards was a freshly clad horse, and the carriage was exquisitely elaborate, with the Holy Fountain coat of arms inlaid with it.

This is clearly the reliance of the royal family of Shengquan when traveling.

"Get out of the way!" shouted the rider at the head, sitting upright on his tall horse.

"It's Her Highness Yoanna's frame!" a guard whispered.

"But...... When did she leave the palace? Didn't Your Majesty have an order to close the palace gate during this time?"

"Don't you know that Your Highness? When have you listened to Your Majesty's orders, haven't you always done your own thing?"

"Oh, this lawless aura always reminds me of that ...... Uh, I didn't say anything!"

"Don't pretend, I know who you're thinking about, and I feel the same way. Which of the princesses of the royal generation of Dimahia will be the lady who abides by the rules!

Lu Xi was still pondering the amount of information in the whisper, but the carriage door suddenly opened. He felt a girl dressed in an aristocratic light hunting garment get out of the carriage and walk with graceful and somewhat sassy cat steps. He could also feel that the girl's gaze stayed on him for nearly a second or so, and then she stopped in front of the palace gate and let out a pleasant, healthy and lively girlish voice.

"Teacher Ather, you came so early today! I thought I could get back to the palace before you came. ”

"This afternoon should be the noble heraldic of Master Olint, you should be skipping class, Your Highness. Ether replied in a flat, but detached manner. There was even a helpless affection and pampering in her tone.

"Heh, because this kind of course doesn't make any sense at all. Princess Yuna sneered, "In two months, I'm afraid that half of the nobles in Auckland will be killed by Sister Karin, so why should I learn that useless knowledge." ”

…… If someone else said this, it would be a typical disrespect, and the royal guards even had the power to correct this unobtrusive madman on the spot without trial. But if it is said by the emperor's eldest daughter, it can only bring a very effective cold effect.

"Your Highness...... Cornelia smiled wryly, and was about to say something, but was interrupted on the spot by Her Royal Highness the Princess: "Are you here on purpose to embarrass my teacher?"

"This ...... Your Highness, Wechen is just patrolling here, uh, by the way...... However, Your Highness, as far as Wei Chen knows, you should have a class this afternoon, but why did you appear outside the palace?" said Cornelia with a smile on his face.

"Is this something you can manage?" the princess interrupted the other again coldly: "In addition to inspecting the Forbidden Palace, your duties also include monitoring my studies and whereabouts? In this case, what do you want to do while standing here to embarrass my teacher and delay my and my sisters' study time?" Cornelia, is this the courage that your master Baltoli gave you?"

is obviously a sweet voice of a young girl, but it still reveals the condescending and inviolable awe-inspiring momentum of the superior.

"This, Your Highness, so that you can know that everything is in accordance with the palace regulations prescribed by your father......"

"Smack!" the second half of Cornelia's sentence was blocked by the sudden sound of a whip. Lu Xi raised his head in shock, but saw that the princess had her back to her, but her right hand didn't know where she took out the horsewhip and waved it on Cornelia mercilessly.

This Golden 6th Order powerhouse, if he really wanted to avoid or counterattack, it would naturally be effortless, but he didn't dare to make a mistake. The whip struck him his chest, tearing the streak off his shoulder, and the water-blue cloak behind Cornelia fell.

If he is really a knight with status and a sense of honor, even in the face of the royal family, such an insult is impossible to accept. Cornelia didn't say a word, still with a flattering smile, and the whole person hurriedly knelt down as if he had no bones, begging Her Royal Highness to calm her anger. He really looks like a perfect knight on the outside, but at heart he is still just a horse thief.

"Open the door!" Princess Ewana exclaimed, holding her whip, "I don't need to repeat it, do I?"

As a result, the first crisis in the infiltration operation of Yongchen Palace was resolved by the flying and domineering of Princess Youanna, the emperor's eldest daughter, who suddenly entered the chaos. (To be continued.) )u
