I gently wiped the surface of the black pearl with a rabbit skin velvet cloth, and I couldn't wait to take it away immediately!

I walked very lightly, and just as I was about to turn around, the palace robe on my shoulder happened to hang on the lantern on the side of the antique shelf......

I secretly exclaimed in my heart, no!

The palace lamp was pulled by me like this, and the hanging pillar behind it was oblique, but fortunately, I was quick and straightened the hanging pillar. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

It's just that when I looked at it, my little face instantly turned hideous, 'Is it necessary to make such a tedious lantern for decoration?' I complained hysterically in my heart.

I saw that the outer cover of the lantern was made of gold spindles, which were like a circle of fine little hooks, and hooked the silk and cotton threads on my shoulders directly into the spindles.

Man'er's face changed, her expression was tangled and embarrassed, the light in her ice-blue eyes flickered, and her fingers were eager to untangle the filament of her clothes.

I raised my right shoulder slightly, trying to stay still, trying to turn my head in the same direction as my shoulder.

It's just that no matter how hard I try to unravel it, I can't get it.

This strange position was also too difficult to maintain, and after only a few moments, my neck stiffened and I began to feel a little dizzy.

I secretly cursed this eccentric king in my heart, 'I miss you dignified doctors, countless palace ladies, maids, grandmothers, guards, and servants, how can you just like to let a mermaid serve and clean?' I rolled my eyes at the figure in the robe lying on the desk.

He seemed to notice something, and suddenly turned his head and scratched the white of my eye.

His eyes swept sharply over my shoulder, frowning slightly, and his expression was clear.

His voice was as cold and icy as the deep water of a lake in winter, "Need help?" ”

I hurriedly changed to a well-behaved and quiet expression, "Then there is His Majesty Lao." ”

He put down the pen in his hand, slowly got up, and walked over to me and stood still.

I suddenly felt a sense of oppression from above, and his eyes were fixed on my shoulders so deeply that I could not see his expression.

For the first time, he was so close to me that I could feel his breathing like a spring breeze, and for some reason, I felt my heart pounding and my cheeks suddenly hot.

When he was young, he snorted coldly, "It's okay." ”

He glanced at me faintly with a pair of eyes and sat back in his dragon chair.

I was stunned for a moment, my throat a little dry and speechless, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

He looked silently at the other parchment book in his hand.

I fixed my mind and looked at his resolute and upright figure sitting on the throne, as if it were a beautifully painted and majestic oil painting.

Man'er's gaze was like a pool of clear water, looking at him so clearly and purely, at the end, she sighed softly in her heart, they came from different countries, different nationalities, if they didn't come to find their brother, maybe they would never have crossed paths.

Thinking of this, I lowered my eyes and continued to do my own thing in peace.

On the antique shelf, a small but bright purple-red clams once again attracted my attention.

My pretty face sank, and I said in a very low voice, "Father, why do you want to give away so many precious treasures of the Spirit Clan? ”

Oss suddenly threw the black quill pen in his hand on the table, the golden tip reflecting a little bright light, and he was helpless to find that she would distract him here.

"What, what's wrong?" His voice sounded abruptly, coldly, with majesty.

I blinked my eyes pretending to be relaxed, pursed my pink lips slightly, and smiled at him slyly, "Back to Your Majesty, there is nothing wrong with it. ”

His voice drifted coldly again, as clear as a lake, "Do you know this thing?" ”

I said truthfully: "This, this is something on the Spirit Island, and the slave and maid naturally know it." ”

He frowned, but he wasn't surprised, "It's a clams?" ”

I nodded, "To be exact, it's called crocus." ”

He casually asked, "Is there anything special about it?" ”

Hearing him ask this, I was obviously stunned for a moment, the mermaid maid knows the treasure on the Spirit Island, it's not unusual, right?

I thought about it, and finally I couldn't stop it, and said: "Tridacnus is a unique holy object on Ling Island, it can be called a gem as white as jade, like this kind of crimson clams, it is the best color in the clams, it is the shellfish birthday star in the marine world, with a lifespan of hundreds of years. ”

Oss got up, slowly paced two steps, and stood quietly at the window, his noble temperament made people unable to take their eyes off, "The Spirit King only cared about giving these things to me, but he didn't explain the reason for this. ”

"It seems that Your Majesty also wants to thank me for helping you get to know a superb treasure." There was a smile on my face, but my heart felt as if I was going to drip blood, what did my father think, how good it would be to give me these treasures, why should I give them to him?

Oss didn't speak, just stared at her with deep eyes, and the person who had been haunted by his dreams stood so vividly and gracefully in front of his eyes, which always made him feel unreal.

"Your Majesty, what is this—What is this?" Man'er's fingers rubbed on a gray-white pointed thing, the spiral texture surface was slightly prickly, and it was lying in a large red brocade box, with an indescribable decay and gloom.

Oss's face softened at some point, and he explained lightly, "It's a single horn." ”

Surprised, I asked, "The bones of a unicorn?" ”

"Yes."

I was secretly unhappy and asked, "You don't even let go of a unicorn?" ”

He frowned slightly, and slowly explained: "It's not that I maliciously wanted to take its horn, it's just that when the Spirit King sent it across the ocean to me, it was already dead, so I left this horn behind. ”

Man'er's little face gradually turned cold, and she looked at the unicorn with pity, "The unicorn has always been proud, noble, and pure, and he only succumbs to those who can fully control it. How could the Spirit King tolerate such humiliation when he imprisoned it in a cage and sent it thousands of miles away to the Doctor's Clan? ”

He clasped his hands in front of his chest, his eyes were sharp and inquiring, and he asked abruptly, "Are you really a mermaid?" ”

I hurriedly put away my pity and immediately became vigilant, "Of course! ”

His voice sounded coldly again, with a hint of sarcasm, "You seem to be a little unruly about the work of the maid? ”

I suddenly felt a little nervous, and looked at Os, who was sitting back in his seat, for fear that he would doubt my identity, "Back to Your Majesty, the slave maid has served by the princess's side since she was a child, so she is naturally well-informed, and the slave maid is only responsible for the princess's daily life, and other matters are not within the scope of the slave's responsibility. ”

He raised his eyebrows slightly, and a light smile raised at the corner of his mouth, but he did not speak.

I peeked at the ancient porcelain vases, glazed jade, ancient painting scrolls, several bronze mottled incense burners, old wine pots and teacups, and sandalwood compartments for displaying these antique calligraphy and paintings. I thought to myself.

Oss folded his arms over his chest and stood against the light, "You seem to be quite wary of me? Why, did I make you feel scared? ”

I pursed my lips a little uncomfortably, "Your Majesty, you have noble blood, cold majesty, you are the king, can anyone not be afraid of you?" ”

As if he had heard some joke, Oss changed his previous coldness and laughed clearly, "Tell me about your life on Spirit Island?" ”

Man'er, who had just relaxed a little, immediately became alarmed again, and I looked at him with big eyes flickering, and deliberately asked, "Then what do you think it will be like?" ”

The corners of his lips quietly raised, with a charming arc, "I'm not a mermaid, how can I know your life?" ”

I could only laugh dryly twice, and said a high-sounding sentence, "Who are you, you are the king of the Divine Healer, there is nothing you don't know!" ”

Osjun raised his eyebrows, his purple eyes met mine's ice-blue eyes, and he stared at me with a smile on his face, but he didn't speak.

My heart jumped suddenly, as if I had a feeling of being seen through, and his sparkling eyes made me feel inexplicably emotionally fluctuating.

Oss's voice rang out unhurriedly, "Someone once said to me that merfolk have no soul, and are as cold and merciless as the sea. ”

Man'er laughed mischievously, and a pleasant silver bell-like laugh rang out, "That sounds pretty funny. ”

Oss frowned slightly, and said seriously, "Is it interesting?" Before you showed up, I always thought it was true! ”

"If you associate mermaids with the vastness of the ocean, it really adds a mystery."

Oss's gaze followed Man'er's smile, "Legend has it that mermaids have a cold and poignant appearance and a mournful and beautiful singing voice. ”

I raised my face and smiled brightly, "This is not a rumor, at least we mermaids are good at singing and dancing." Is there anything else to say? ”

"Some love stories about mermaids, mysterious seduction, deception, cruelty, or despair...... these are the impressions that Man'er once left on him, a person who can make him find despair.

Man'er was slightly surprised, and there was a layer of doubt in her eyes.

Oss only frowned and muttered, he had no intention of explaining the deeper meaning of his words.

"The Loilai people are very fond of these mermaid stories." He paused suddenly, and said meaningfully, "However, your appearance has broken all rumors. ”

I pursed my lips slightly, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Actually, we are just different races, this is the difference between the Loilai nation and the Poset nation, we mermaids are not monsters!" ”

He smiled soothingly, "You're right. ”

I sighed lightly and said, "By the way, Your Majesty, have you ever seen a lizard beast in the sea?" ”

Oss replied indifferently: "My second brother once raised one. ”

"Lizardmen have hands and legs, and they have a thick tail, so they can live on land or swim freely in the sea, but what about that? They're just mavericks, and they really live in the world, you can't say they're monsters, right? They have their own name, they are called Lizardmen! ”

Oss bowed his head slightly, "There are some things that are mysterious because we don't know enough about them!" ”

At this moment, the female official Feifei lifted the corner of the golden dragon pattern cloud curtain and walked in with small steps, she said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Elder Longhua and Prime Minister Sain are waiting outside the hall. ”

Oss's expression returned to his usual coldness, "Got it." ”

After the female official retreated, Oss pondered for a moment and said, "You serve the mermaid princess well in Jingyuan Palace, Wuzhao doesn't need to come again, retreat." ”

Man'er is like an amnesty, and a peach blossom seems to bloom in her happy eyes, flowing like glass.

After respectfully saluting, she hurried away with broken steps.
