Chapter 403: The Mistress of Vengeance
Terrence sat on the throne and looked triumphantly at the belated queen. "Words * love * first * hair [big, book, bag, small, say, net. To cover the kiss marks on her neck, she deliberately wore a long silk dress with a high collar and sparkling gemstones. However, although the collar is high, the opening is from the neck to the lower abdomen, the upper half is dignified and generous, and the middle is infinitely spring. The garment, which was originally made for Deanna, was made with three finest brocade forges and three kilograms of precious stones, and the narrow opening was also designed to accentuate Deanna's proud breasts. Vanessa didn't want to wear the dress too ostentatiously, so she lined it with a bandeau to refocus everyone's eyes above her neck.
The day's royal council was lackluster, and Vanessa didn't listen to a word of what the courtiers said. She quietly recalled the domineering kiss of the previous night, and her face was sometimes intoxicated, sometimes sad. That's not right, Terrence is a veteran of the love scene, he is as sophisticated in dealing with women as Rainer treats his arrows, I shouldn't be led by the nose by him.
Just as he was thinking of this, the door of the Long Night Hall was suddenly slammed open, and the guards couldn't stop it, and a petite woman broke into the council hall and shouted and cursed. Her appearance attracted all eyes, and even Terrence was stunned.
"Terrence you promised me that you would bring my brother back safely," the woman shouted. Vanessa waited for her to get closer to see how beautiful she was, and instantly understood that she was one of Terrence's ten thousand lovers. The queen looked at the expression on Terrence with interest, and the look of surprise, disappointment, and annoyance flashed on the king's face, and it seemed that the little lover was about to be expelled from his army of mistresses.
"Lexie, we're in a meeting." Terrence reminded her in a low voice.
Unfortunately, the delicate woman did not heed this kind warning, and she raised her round white arm and pointed at Vanessa on the throne, and angrily rebuked: "You did not bring my brother back, but you brought back such a bewitch for yourself, who murdered so many of our soldiers, and you allowed her to take your throne and occupy your bed like in a brothel."
"You didn't say that at my holy wedding. And," Terrence squinted his eyes and smiled, "you've tasted all the seventy-seven dishes at our wedding banquet, and that's why you're like this," he looked up and down Lexie's chubby figure with a playful look, "so plump." Someone in the council snickered. Terrence continued, "My dear, you either ate the wrong thing or were enchanted today, and I don't blame you, only the servants who failed to keep an eye on you and made you behave against etiquette. The guards pulled her out and broke the legs of those who came with her as punishment," Terrence stopped looking at the crying lover and turned to his queen and the members of the council to nod his apology.
Vanessa saw this farce in her eyes and did not move.
Could this be another gift from Reina, no. Looking at Lexie's appearance, she is more like she was infected by some kind of emotion, so she did such a reckless thing.
Solanda
Vanessa gasped, and the blood in her body seemed to freeze.
These days, I have been ignoring Sorenda, thinking that she and Matt crossed the sea safely to the land of ice marshes, and has not paid attention to her news since, so whether she went to Matt's country or not, is she waiting for a gap to appear next to her in some dark corner, waiting for an opportunity to kill herself?
"What's wrong with you, my queen," Terrence asked, seeing Vanessa's strange expression, leaning over and asking with concern. "Are you scared by her," he took her hand and kissed her lightly, "don't be afraid, I won't let this affect you." ”
"I'm feeling a little uncomfortable, please let me step back first." Vanessa apologized to the Imperial Council and got up to leave the Long Night Hall.
Reina, Reina, where are you Meath, Brandt, where are you
"Rogge" yes, I still have Rogge, I only have Rogge. The Holy Sword Knight responded, the divine sword at his waist gleaming. Vanessa looked around and whispered, "Solanda is here, protect me." ”
Rogge frowned tightly and beckoned to Xue Lanwei beside him, "We will not leave your left and right an inch." ”
"The Demon Girl" shouted violently, and Lexie, who had just been expelled from the Long Night Hall, suddenly appeared behind Vanessa, "You shameless witch, do you think that if you use despicable means to climb into the king's bed, he will love you" She smiled proudly and viciously, "He never looks at women from other countries, he loves Lexie from my Fire Dragon Village"
It turned out that she was the heir of the Fire Dragon Village, so it was no wonder that Terrence didn't attack her. But looking at her up close, it's not as exciting as when you look at her from a distance, she's not young, and she's a little fat, and the slightest movement makes the flesh on her body tremble, even if she wears it and exposes the temptation, she can't save that anger, no wonder Terrence doesn't provoke her, but takes her brother hostage.
"I have no right to ask whom the king loves," Vanessa said calmly, "but you must be honest with me about who you have seen before you came to the palace."
"What do you know why you are talking to me like this" Lexi narrowed her eyes, "Ha, I know, you must be a spy in the country of Midsummer, come to spy on our intelligence, come and catch the spy of this country of summer" She shouted loudly, causing the imperial guards to look sideways, and in the corner of Vanessa's eyes, the newlywed Yu Lian had already led someone to her side.
"I'm just asking if you've ever seen a female warrior covered in scars." Vanessa ignored the brainless woman's swearing and asked again.
"I won't sue you, the more you want to know, the more I won't sue you" Lexie's eyes were confused, and she looked completely on the verge of madness. "Ha, you're scared, you're scared" she shouted at Yu Lian, "Catch her, I'll tell you to catch her in the name of the lord of the Fire Dragon Village"
Vanessa nodded at Yu Lian, and the chief of the guard stepped forward, and without saying a word, he picked up Lexie and left.
"What are you doing to catch the wrong person, I'm the lord of the Fire Dragon Village," before the crazy woman could say the second half of her sentence, Yu Lian had already gagged her mouth with a sword cloth.
"Put her in the dungeon," Vanessa instructed, "don't let her speak to anyone, let her out in a day's time, I have something to ask her." ”
Looking at the back of Yu Lian and the imperial guards leaving, Vanessa was even more sure that there was someone behind Lexie's back. At this time, Rogge stepped forward, "Your Highness, I have sent people to search the city from house to house, and there are a hundred Xue Lan guards left in the palace by your side." ”
"I have a feeling," Vanessa clenched her arms, preoccupied, "Lexie is only the first, and it's not over yet." Terrence claims to have 10,000 lovers. ”
Sure enough, before the day reached the twilight quadrangle, Vanessa stepped on ten magic traps in succession, if it weren't for the talisman and the blood of the king on her body, she would have died three times, and in the end, this rodent magic really injured her.
