Chapter 434: A Child in a Sea of Flowers
Because of the horse thief incident, the guards who protected the noble lady and the noble lady returning to their hometown were killed and wounded. Therefore, they had to live in the castle of the peaceful town for the time being.
Over the course of a month, they re-recruited the Escort Squire, much slower than they had thought.
Juan was the commander of the guards left behind by Baron Hajvi Yakel, who barely survived the fight with the horse thieves, but was left with a lifelong disability as a result. After a month of recuperation, he was finally able to get out of bed. The gouged-out eye can't grow back, but the broken rib is showing signs of healing.
Early one morning, he got out of bed and found the gentle and dignified noble lady. He was then given the responsibility of overseeing all the guards of the castle.
At this moment, Juan was standing in front of a group of rookie warriors, and his task was to give these rookie samurai discipline and duties.
In order to leave the peaceful town as soon as possible, the noble lady no longer cares about the quality of the samurai recruited. Juan, on the other hand, must think more, otherwise their safety will not be guaranteed by relying on rookie samurai alone.
As a veteran guard, I certainly know how to train a novice. But after he trained the rookie samurai into a rookie samurai with a little discipline experience in a week, the noble lady suddenly announced that she would not return to the flower grassland for the time being.
Juan thought that this so-called "temporary" was only for a few days, so he still trained rookie warriors day and night in the garden open space outside the castle. What Juan didn't know at this time was that he would stay in Peace Town for a long time to come.
It had been raining heavily for three days, and at this time there was a thick white fog outside. Three days after not training rookie samurai, Juan's heart was already tickling. So, when it was just dawn, he woke up all the rookie samurai and went to line up in the courtyard......
Hayser sat sullenly in the bedroom, wearing dark blue suspender pajamas, her hair had not had time to be groomed, and she was lying on her stomach and hanging down her shoulders, looking a little messy. Beside her sat a noble lady, dressed in a dark black silk robe, with a red jade button tied around her neck. Under the red jade clasp is a black swan pendant not much bigger than a fingernail.
The black swan pendant is decorated with two crystal white crystals, reflecting the red buckles of the black clothes, which looks very godly.
Two nuns, dressed in black plain clothes, stood behind the noble lady, their hands still holding hot food.
"Hasgar, my daughter," said the noble lady, "you have been without food or drink for three days, and look what you have become now." ”
Hayska's face was expressionless, and he secretly thought in his heart, all the food is not safe, and you want to kill the child in my womb that is not yet formed.
The daily morning sickness came very timely, and the menstrual period that had not come for more than a month was delayed...... Yes, she knew she was pregnant. This is no longer a conjecture, judging from the mother's recent expression and the nun's attitude towards her, there is no line between conjecture and fact.
"What did the old doctor say to you?" mother," she said sadly. This was the first time she wanted to make things clear, and if she hadn't suppressed it for three days, she wouldn't have mustered up the courage to take the initiative to bring it up.
"She didn't say anything, Hayska, you're in good health. The noble lady said slowly.
Haysjia knew that every time her mother lied to her, she would unconsciously clench the pendant tied around her neck. "I know," she tried to calm her voice, "Mom, you don't have to lie to me, you want to kill the child, right, I saw it, Tori drugged my water." ”
Silence, dead silence.
This silence represented an affirmation, and Hasjia was more certain of his inner conjecture. "I want to keep my children," she said, "and no one can stop me." Haysjia turned her head away from the noble lady, she was afraid that the other party would clench the black swan pendant again when she spoke.
The two nuns standing behind the noble lady had terrible faces, as if they hadn't slept for many days. In fact, that was it, because their Miss Hasjia hadn't slept in three days! Not only that, but she had barely eaten anything except some fruit!
This made the two nuns anxious, as they explained to the young lady that it was a good drug for sleep, and on the other hand, they tried to send the child born in Hayska's womb to the god of light, which the noble lady had insisted. The noble lady told them about the consequences of having a child, and Sister Dumes, who had been neutral, joined their camp.
After a moment of silence, the noble lady said calmly:
"Haska, now that you know, I'll tell you what you're going to face in the future. ”
"Yes, you're pregnant, that's true. And the old doctor said that your body is very healthy, and it is a good time to have a baby. ”
"Are you happy? No, I don't want you to do that, because the arrival of this child will ruin our Arkel family. ”
"Daughter, you may not know what you're going to face, do you? if you give birth to this child, it means that our hereditary title of nobility will not be inherited. You don't expect a brown-haired child to get a noble inheritance. ”
"The Yaker family has been around for two hundred years, from the dawn of the Arker Empire, and because we have the same surname as the royal family, we have received the hereditary title of nobility. This is an honor and a responsibility. ”
"Of course, there are two sides to everything, do you think that after giving birth to a child, we will only lose the title of nobility?"
"At the most basic level, our noble realms will be subsumed under the names of other nobles. Then your father will be stripped of all power in the kingdom. What's more, we will be spurned by all Odin!"
"The Odin have always been ashamed to marry the Yodelmans, and for two hundred years no half-bastard has come to a good end. Death in the womb, that's the best outcome. ”
"Yes, I also like the young man in the blue hat and support you in your relationship with him, in fact, he also gives you a good time, and I do not deny the affection between you and him at all. But being friends and being a couple are two different things entirely, and if you break the relationship between the two races, you're bound to pay the price. ”
The noble lady also explained this to the two nuns, and after realizing the stakes, they naturally agreed to help the noble lady.
It's like cold water poured on your head, and it's like countless knives cut into your heart. Haysjia bit her lip tightly, and by the time the noble lady was halfway through her words, she had already shed tears. Then, the other party didn't take into account her feelings at all, and was still narrating coldly.
Disillusionment with all the good things she had imagined in her mind, Hasja stopped the tears from the corners of her eyes, "Let me think," she said in a trembling voice, "I'll tell you the answer tonight." ”
Seeing her daughter like this, the noble lady's tone finally revealed a taste of distress, and she said softly:
"There is a medicine in the milk that drains the fetus, so that after drinking it for three days, everything stops. ”
At the same time, the two nuns put food and drink on the table.
When the noble lady and the two nuns walked out of the room, she finally broke down and cried. Immediately, she ran to the window and looked at everything outside the window. She wanted to struggle, but all her strength flowed with tears, and she wanted to scream, and countless knives were all blocked in her throat.
It was an early autumn morning, and everything outside the window was foggy, just like her state of mind at this time: confused, empty, and full of fear of the unknown.
Outside the window there was the sound of neat running, and she watched as a line of guards ran from under the castle and straight out of the gate, knowing that when she lost her child, they would escort her back to the Flower Meadow.
Do you want to say goodbye to the town of peace forever? Hasja is not ready, and here she is still with people she has not seen.
If the other party does not come to see her, she has no choice, because as long as she goes out, Sister Torri and Sister Dummes will follow her closely. She also knew that there would be a lot of guards and guards guarding in the dark.
She became a golden finch in a cage, and the nuns, guards, and guards stood in a circle to form an iron cage.
Someone would come and feed it, but the food was poisonous and would kill her child.
During this time, she prayed to the god of light countless times to bless her child's health, but received no response.
The aristocratic lady expected that everything in the future was gray, full of bumps and thorns, and reacted so coldly. How could she have thought that in fact, her daughter's heart was full of light, a piece of gold. When the noble lady said that to her, the golden world in her heart disappeared, and at the same time, the beautiful feeling of innocence disappeared forever in her heart.
At this moment, her heart slowly cooled, without any temperature.
The word family told her that if she wanted the future world to turn golden, she had to become a female leopard, cold and decisive.
Below the castle, when the guards returning from their morning exercise poured into the castle gates, she picked up the milk on the table, drank it down, and then began to eat the food that had lost its temperature.
......
......
The old doctor was indeed suffering from a fever, but fortunately, Frank called in a doctor and prepared the decoction in time.
After a night of careful care, the old doctor's head was finally not so hot.
At dawn, Pique woke up from his sleep. He had only slept for an hour, and it didn't seem to have any energy replenishment for him, and his face was full of exhaustion from staying up all night. Without having time to think about it, he walked out of the production room and came to the low stone house that once belonged to him.
After checking the old doctor's condition again, he relieved himself and sat down in his chair.
Looking deeply at the universal canon on the table, he turned the page again.
A sea of golden flowers, children running in a sea of flowers.
Memories came flooding back at this moment, and I don't know how long it took, the sea of golden flowers in his mind suddenly turned gray, pulling him out of the ocean of memory.
Castles, golden flowers, beautiful girls. Pique recalls everything that came to his mind before.
Suddenly, he had a splitting headache, and a feeling of sadness suddenly welled up in his heart.
Confused, when he looked at the sea of golden flowers in the Universal Divine Codex again, he suddenly found ...... The little boy running in the middle of the sea of flowers disappeared, leaving a blank space!!
Hallucinations?
When he saw the blankness, his heart seemed to be clenched tightly by a big invisible hand!
It was the first time he had encountered such a strange scene, and his consciousness wandered through his body, and he realized that he was not sick from yesterday's heavy rain.
He closed his eyes, tried to calm down, and forcibly collected his thoughts.
When he opened his eyes again, the child in the book reappeared.
Strangely, he didn't run, but stopped there, and against the backdrop of the sea of golden flowers, the figure of the child was a little illusory......
