Although there was a torrential rain this morning, the dark clouds in the sky had cleared and the wind was not noisy. The soft sunlight shone on the clear surface of the lake, sparkling like crystal.

In the pavilion by the lake, a plump elf in a snow-white dress sat on a stone bench, holding his chin on the table with one hand, and looking sideways at the lake.

A gust of wind blew, gently swaying her long silver-white hair, which hung down like a waterfall.

Elizabeth pulled Charles to the gazebo, "Mom, I'm back." I brought Charles over. ”

Queen Victoria sat up straight, turned her head to look at Elizabeth, then at Charles, and then said to Elizabeth in a soft tone, "You finally brought the man back to me." ”

Charles, who was just about to greet Her Majesty, choked on a sentence in his throat, and his mouth opened one by one like a fish just out of water.

Elizabeth's face was a little distorted.

"Mom!"

It was the first time Charles had heard Elizabeth shout so loudly.

The royal court guards around the garden just looked this way, and then went back on duty.

What happens in the garden now has nothing to do with them, as a group of "Her Majesty the Queen will always be loyal to whom", they only need to ensure that the Queen is not hurt by external enemies, and it is not their responsibility to control the internal affairs of the royal family.

"Charles is my apprentice!" Elizabeth cried to her mother, "and he's a child!"

Victoria said unconcernedly, "So what, when I met your father, your father was only seven years old. ”

Charles seemed to have heard something terrible.

Then Victoria said indignantly, "Didn't I just leave for a few years later, and as a result, she got a head start, and the most hateful thing is that the two of them have only known each other for a short time, but they behave like each other at first sight." ”

Charles kept silently chanting in his mind that "the queen will not die", while foolishly pretending that he could not understand elven language.

Elizabeth was about to say something with a bitter face, but Victoria continued, "You're not too young, it's time to think about life's events." When I was your age, my daughter was already running around in this garden. I have a baby as soon as I am too old to help you take care of it. Otherwise, when I get old, I can't take care of the children, and you are working and taking care of the children, which is very tiring. ”

At this time, Charles almost burst into tears, in his previous life, as a middle-aged man born in the 80s, his mother nagged him so much.

Then Victoria looked at Charles, and she smiled kindly and said to Charles, "Charles, this is the first time you have seen me, this is not the first time I have seen you." ”

Only then did Charles have the opportunity to take a closer look at Victoria's face, her appearance was very similar to Elizabeth, and her face was more mature and intellectual than the last time he saw her in the dream.

Although Victoria's smile was gentle, Charles always felt that her gaze was sharp and seemed to be able to see through herself.

Charles bowed slightly to the queen with a cute and sensible manner, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Your Majesty." ”

"Don't be so polite. A fan made of flaming red bird feathers appeared in Victoria's hand, and she took the fan and waved it twice, "You can call me Auntie just like your father and grandfather." ”

"Auntie. Charles called out sweetly to his ancestral aunt.

Victoria continued, "I went over to take a look when you were in Abyss City, and I was very pleased with your performance. ”

"Well, are you interested in being my son-in-law?"

Charles hurriedly shook his head, "No!"

"Why?" asked Victoria, "isn't Elizabeth pretty?"

"No, no, no. "Charles's neck is moving well today," the master is very beautiful. ”

Victoria raised her eyebrows, "Have you ever seen a prettier?"

"yes. Charles nodded, "It's you, Auntie." ”

Victoria angrily pointed her fan at Charles, "Slippery like Philip." ”

Then she said, "As long as you are my son-in-law, you can use the power of the elves to avenge your parents and your grandfather." And you can get a wealth far greater than your family, after all, the family is only a family, and it cannot be compared with the country. ”

Charles's eyes widened, and he said solemnly, "Your Majesty, don't talk about your son-in-law or anything, this is not something that can be joked about by the master and me." What is the matter with my grandfather's death?"

Victoria looked at Charles's determined gaze, secretly surprised by his ability to grasp the point. At the same time, she also put away the smile on her face, and the majesty of the queen suddenly radiated on her body.

"Charles," Victoria reached out and touched Charles's head, then took his hand and let him finish it in the chair next to her, "Leif and Nikolai are right, you're a nice boy." ”

"I'm sad about your family," she continued, in a deep voice, "I promised Philip to take care of your family. ”

"It's my fault, I should have been alert when your grandfather died unexpectedly. The Demon Clan has a special unit of assassination tactics at their disposal, and they have caused many important human beings to die in accidents and sudden illnesses back then. But I was so careless that I thought it was really just an accident, and I didn't expect the demon clan's hand to bypass Rurik and reach east. ”

"I'm here to apologize to you. ”

Charles hurriedly waved his hand, "No! No, it's not your fault, it's the murderers who are at fault." All I have to do is get the killer to confess to my parents and grandfather. ”

"Hmm. Victoria nodded, "If you need any help, come to Auntie." ”

Finding an aunt means that Victoria will only help in a private capacity, and will not use the power of the elves to help Charles in the name of the queen.

Charles didn't care about the difference, he nodded solemnly and said, "Thank you, Auntie." ”

Victoria poured Charles a cup of osmanthus tea and said, "Take off your mask." ”

Charles took off the mask from his face and placed it on the table.

Victoria reached out and gently stroked Charles's face.

"It's okay, it's all gone after a while. Victoria said.

Elizabeth sat down at the table and then took the teapot on the table and poured herself tea. Her mother, who was a little angry, said, "Mom, you're going to test Charles, don't make fun of me, okay?"

Victoria glanced at her, "I'm not kidding. ”
