"Stella, would you like a glass of grapefruit champagne from Sword and Shield Province?"

"I've told you many times, Jerrold, either call me by my full name and add the word Miss, or call me Your Highness Princess like your father, I don't hate you now, but if you continue to be pestered like this, I will consider starting to hate you and your father. Stella was dressed in a white garment that was more like a swordsman's suit than a gown, and the pale gold embroidery of the ice phoenix showed that the garment was not a mortal thing, but a piece of armor blessed by the Protector of the North.

"Oh, well, Your Royal Highness Princess Stella Snow Wing. Gerald bowed respectfully and used the most formal salutation, "Then I will take my leave." ”

"I don't send it. ”

Looking at Gerald who walked towards the aristocratic circle of the north, Stella couldn't help frowning slightly, she originally had a good impression of Gerald, this person who adhered to the rules of knighthood seemed to be a choice that could be a friend. But he seemed to misunderstand what he meant, and began to reveal his true colors, which seemed to be no different from the ordinary noble children she had seen.

"They all covet the power of the royal family, and you are the easiest and fastest, if not the only, way to get there. A clear and gentle voice sounded in his ears, and then a fair-skinned and slender but not feminine hand stretched out from the side, handing over a glass of chilled Roland juice, which is a mango-like but more juicy fruit, which is the main export crop of the Roland Kingdom, so the official name is Roland fruit, and the scientific name has long been forgotten by people, "Therefore, they are either hungry for your family's power, or for your body, and most of them I can guarantee ......"

"They want both. ”

Stella took the juice and took a sip, the cold and sweet taste was much more soothing on a summer night than the so-called yuzu champagne. She turned to face the man who handed her the juice, he was slightly taller than herself, the soft golden hair and the golden eyes that seemed to be shining only gave people a sense of harmony and indifference, and it was strange that gold, a more flamboyant color, could exude such a temperament. And the face gave her a very strange sense of familiarity, as if this was someone she was supposed to know.

But seeing him wearing a space ring on his other hand, Stella knew who this person was, and I have to say that girls grow up fast, and girls change eighteen years old, but in fact, boys seem to grow up in just a few years.

"Victor, you're gossiping now, too. ”

"Don't talk nonsense, it's all from Aunt Bianca. Victor smiled and took a sip of juice, and took a picture of his face with the silver tray on the table that was bright enough to be used as a mirror, "Can I recognize it so easily? This face must be very different from the little kid five years ago, right? How tall could I be then? One meter one?"

"Probably, it's about my height anyway. Stella suddenly relaxed a lot, Victor can be said to be the most defenseless person she has, the heir of the Holy See, the heir of the Pope, has a big family, and she still needs to worry about her own little property?" ”

As he spoke, he stretched out his left hand, with a small but delicate space ring on his tail finger, exactly the same pattern as Victor's, only smaller and thinner.

"This is the greeting gift that His Holiness gave me at the beginning. ”

"I'll just say that I had such a subtle expression when I gave me this spatial ring!" Victor grinned, and then asked, "You recognized me by this, didn't you stare at me all the time when you entered the city?"

"Ah, is that you?" Stella scratched her jaw with her index finger, "I just noticed that someone was staring at me, so I subconsciously stared back, I noticed the gaze, but my eyesight was not very good, I was too far away to see my face." ”

"Meow, then I stared at you so seriously in vain, I thought you recognized me!" Victor sighed, "Alas, I thought it was a rivalry between two people, but it turned out to be a one-act play by myself for a long time." ”

"You can't blame me, how did I know that you were so idle, and ran to the city gate to make such a unique show. Stella spread her hands and pretended to be innocent, "Then again, why are you calling my mother, Aunt Bianca?

"Are you serious? I deliberately made such a big deal over there just now, and even put my own personal safety in the future, didn't you actually see it?" Victor Victor said as he sat down next to Stella, "Anyway, I took a salary from the bottom of the kettle and proposed to my guardian angel, so Aunt Bianca saw that my feelings were so sincere, and of course, the more important reason was that she knew that you didn't seem to want to marry either, so she went with the flow." ”

"Ahem, is that so?" Stella was a little embarrassed, "I met a juvenile High Elf and an adult Dark Elf over there, and that High Elf has a really big appetite, which has aroused my competitive spirit a bit, so I've been competing with her Big Stomach King, so I didn't notice anything else." ”

The corners of Victor's mouth twitched, and he meowed, this is when he met Arthas!

"Then you shouldn't have won. ”

"Victor, do you think humans can eat more than dragons?" Stella sighed, looking a little discouraged, "I can't eat the forty-third turkey leg. ”

Ahh

Victor looked at his cheap sister with strange eyes, and shook his head, is it some strange natural ability to eat? A dwarf winter melon, a princess, and her waist are all at the level of a water snake waist, where is the stuff you eat?

"Hey, why bother with what I'm doing, shouldn't I explain this kinship that flew out of thin air?"

"This is going to start with the relationship between the previous generation, your mother has always regarded my teacher as her real brother, so it is natural for me to call her aunt, isn't it?" said and raised a thumbs up with a smile, and the white and white teeth of the exposed teeth were reflected, "So please take care of me, my cousin!"

"Well, am I younger than you!?"

"Why is your focus here!" Victor complained with a smile, "I'm sixteen years old, you're fifteen, what should I do, cousin." ”

"That's good. ”

Stella seemed to be very happy with this ending, but she glanced at the children of the northern nobles who were watching the whispering here, and smiled a little disdainfully.

"But it seems that some people are not very happy, you see, the nobles of the north over there, all of them are gearing up, wanting to teach the yellow hair who is close to the goddess of their dreams. ”

"Hey, hey, you're like that! ”

"What's Ernie sauce?"

"It's what my brother means, it's the language of overseas countries!"

"I always feel that this title exudes a bad chill, so I don't want to call you by this title. ”

"I think so too. ”

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, and touched the juice glass in their hands.

......

The children of the nobles in the north not far away looked at Victor, who was chatting and laughing with Stella, and hated the root of their teeth, this piece of flawless jade belonging to their northern border, according to their shallow cognition in their unspeakable heads, should belong to the nobles of the north, so as to achieve a longer rule over the north.

But in their eyes at this time, Victor is the wild dog who came to snatch the Chinese food, even if they may not be able to eat the Chinese food in their mouths, but it still makes them feel excited.

Of course, this also includes Gerald just now, his full name is Gerald Bledsoe, his father is a marquis of the North, the Chancellor of the Exchequer of the North, and one of the most hopeful that his heirs will marry Stella. Because he, the Minister of Finance, manages the income and expenditure of the royal family, and cannot interfere in the country's economic power, all the large chambers of commerce in the north, including the large foreign chambers of commerce, are directly cooperating with the Snow Wing Chamber of Commerce controlled by the royal family, so although the name is the Minister of Finance, he is actually an accountant who manages the accounts, and he still does not dare to do tricks.

And who doesn't want to experience what it's like to be at the center or peak of a country's power?

Since you can't do it yourself, then become a family with the royal family.

Quite simple values, but in the north this is a common idea among nobles above the earl.

After all, if they were really smart enough, their ancestors would not have been squeezed by the major empires to go to the north to pioneer in this icy and snowy place. Or maybe the ancestors were wise and brave, but at least the current generation, it is already a good talent to be able to hold on to its Chengdu.

Otherwise, Princess Bianca would not think that these nobles are no different from the cancer nobles in the major empires, greedy but not smart enough, but they still have a lot of power in their hands, which makes the two kings of the north who want to make the north go further are very dissatisfied.

Of course, the most important thing is to think that why should these crooked melons and cracked dates marry their daughters!

"Go, send someone to investigate, who this person is. I have never met this person in any of the delegations. Gerald said to his companion, but was interrupted by a wave of his hand.

"Gerald, this doesn't need to be investigated, since it's not a member of the delegation, it means it's someone from the Holy City forces. ”

"Brother Albert, you say it's from the Holy City?"

Albert Cade, the absolute core of this group of noble children, is one of the aforementioned talents who can be counted as good talents, and his family was one of the three major ducal families when the North was founded.

"Of course, they are from the Holy City, but most of them are not clergy members in the Holy See, but members of the Holy City City Lord's line. ”

This is not wrong according to common sense, all the clergy present are wearing the attire of their profession, but those who usually wear heavy armor have been replaced by light and beautiful ceremonial light armor, and the management of the Holy City is dressed like ordinary nobles.

But they didn't know that this person was Victor, they were too far away from Victor just now, and they didn't care what was going on over there.

I don't know that Angelica almost forced Victor to wear a gorgeous dress.

I don't know that Victor is now in a state of being ordered to stir up trouble.

"If we go, the people of the Holy City will not be able to ride on our northern borders casually. Albert Kate waved his hand and walked over with a group of noble children in a posture that he considered majestic and handsome, "Let them know that the kaolin flower of the north can only belong to the north forever." ”
