Chapter 445: One Old and One Young
The royal palace is built on a hill by the sea, the hill is not high, about 300 meters, but it extends down for several kilometers, and then there is an endless beach, the scenery is beautiful, making people feel refreshed, starting from the highest seven-story council hall on the top of the mountain, slowly descending, the terrain is steep or gentle, and each gap is designed to be just right.
Spacious asphalt road, nine roads and eighteen bends, although one by one down, but it does not seem to be in a hurry, from the top down, dense buildings, it seems that it does not fall into vain, but the two-story building, coupled with pure white walls and roofs, makes this full of a Mediterranean style, which is very different from the elaborate carving of the East, giving people an alternative touch.
From the moment she walked into the Qing Palace, Sophia took Ning Caichen's hand, there were some things between them that they didn't have to say, they already understood what each other meant, Ning Caichen nodded, smiled lightly, and seemed to say, it doesn't matter, he really doesn't mind this kind of snubbing at all.
Accompanying Sophia back is just an obligation, but it is the center to solve the matter of the dark parliament in Europe, or to make a gap from the Greek principality, which is a more appropriate way, at this time, of course, the more low-key he is, the better, if it were not for the so-called officer who wanted to pry his corner, he really wouldn't have spent that palm of his strength.
The area of the green palace is very large, in addition to the image of the main house on the top of the main mountain, there are also down, winding down, all belong to the royal family's industry, or this seaside hill, all belong to the royal family, but some of the outer edge of the place is open, is regarded as a holy place for tourism, can earn back a huge amount of money for the royal family, in order to adapt to the consumption of peace.
Ning Caichen also has to say that there is indeed a different style here, which is worth visiting, of course, provided that there is no war here.
The green palace is full of the classical taste of Europe in the twelfth century, all the decorations on the walls are ancient objects, even if it is a certain lamp, it is with traces of carving, and there are large oil paintings, of course Ning Caichen does not know, these things are not anti-ancient, but antiques, in the whole of Greece, is unique.
In a large warm room, the first thing that catches your eye is a large desk and desk, and then there are bookcases all around, if you don't know, you think you have inadvertently broken into the National Library, but this is just a person's office.
Yes, behind the desk, there is a gray-haired old man from the West, who is wearing gold-rimmed glasses at the moment, looking at a thick ancient book, in meditation and reality, looking a little dream-like.
"Your Excellency, Sophia is back." Lisa stepped forward, performed the etiquette of a European noblewoman very gently, and then stepped back and stood aside.
Sophie also stepped forward to salute, respectfully, and when it was Ning Caichen's turn, he could see at a glance that this old man was the old man who sent Sophia to school in an Eastern country back then, and of course, the Phantom car, which represented the most noble status in Europe.
He is John Fen, the brother of the patriarch Alex, and the most powerful person in the Green Palace, yes, not many people know that the power he secretly has is more powerful than the patriarch's brother, but he is always low-key and rarely exposed to people, so not too many people know him.
But no one can despise him, no matter how old a tiger is, he is also a tiger, and once he gets angry, it will be a heavy downpour.
"It's you, we met more than two years ago, young man, do you still know me?"
Ning Caichen scratched his head a little impolitely, and said: "I'm really embarrassed, I don't remember much, I don't remember very well, not to mention that you are just a bad old man, not a beauty, and it is natural that I can't remember." ”
Lisa's face changed slightly, and she hurriedly reminded: "Ning Caichen, as the future son-in-law of the royal family, if you want to be recognized, you should know that the old man in front of you is Sophia's grandfather, and he is also the person you should respect." ”
"Yes, as Sophia's grandfather, he should care for his granddaughter and give her the love of the princess, but I just entered the door, and what I saw was indifference and sarcasm, I am very curious now, how noble these people in the Qing Palace are, dare to look down on my Sophia, a grandfather like you, it is already very polite to call you an old man."
"Caichen!" Sophia was a little reluctant, took Ning Caichen's hand, there was a little pleading on her face, it seemed that she wanted him to give some face, don't embarrass everyone, grandpa is already very good to him, she knows some things, but she just hides it in her heart and never tells others.
"Hahaha-" What Lisa didn't expect, the old man actually laughed wildly, laughed very happily, and said: "Yes, very good, Sophia, you surprised grandpa, or it was right to give you a chance at the beginning, and congratulations, I have found your true love, I like the name of this old man." ”
Sophia's mother and daughter were a little dumbfounded, you know, this Chief John Fen, but the most authoritative person in the Qing Palace, the average family descendant saw him, don't talk back, even if it was a normal speech, he didn't dare to breathe, but it was a pity that he met Ning Caichen, which made him try a different atmosphere from Cong, and he was despised for the first time.
"Okay, don't talk about this nonsense, I'm going back to my mother's house with Sophia this time, you guys are welcome or not, in fact, it doesn't matter at all, anyway, what we should do has been done, by the way, after taking the plane for so long, do you want to arrange a hearty dinner, and then give me a comfortable bed?"
"Of course, of course, Lisa, you go and make arrangements, they have come here from the far east, we should be hospitable, Sophia, you go with your mother, see what needs to be prepared, I want to have a good chat with my future grandson-in-law."
Sophia glanced at Ning Caichen, and saw that Ning Caichen nodded, there are some things that need to be faced, as Sophia's man, of course Ning Caichen will not back down, besides, a small green palace, there is really nothing to do, and he needs to be made to retreat.
The two girls walked out back and forth, the door was closed, and then the room was quiet, John Fen looked at Ning Caichen, and seemed to see it with relish, from head to toe, there was no leakage.
Ning Caichen was about to speak, and John Fen had already said: "Compared with the big countries in the East, my Greece is only a small country, according to the rules of your East, should I call you Young Master Ning?"
When Ning Caichen heard this, the corners of his mouth grinned, sure enough, thinking about it, it is impossible for a princess to be without any protection, and it is not surprising that this old man can know his information.
"You don't need to be polite, you can just call me Caichen, how to say it, I am also Sophia's future husband, and my attitude towards your royal family also depends on what Sophia thinks."
The old man stood up, sat down on the chair beside him, and said, "Then we need to have a good chat, about Sophia, you may be interested, there are some things, Sophia may not tell you." ”
Ning Caichen sat down and poured himself a cup of coffee, I have to say, this tastes good, much stronger than hundreds of cups of coffee outside, drinking coffee and listening to stories, it is still a good choice.
Ordinary people come to the Qinggong, they will be very restrained, but Ning Caichen does not, compared with the Eastern countries, Greece is really a small country, and there is really not much power, Ning Caichen may not take them in his eyes.
"About Sophia, it's actually a mysterious miracle, although she was conceived by Lisa, but she was born without pregnancy, Lisa at that time, she was not married, there could never be any man, it was because of helplessness that she would marry into the Green Palace, marry my ignorant son."
"It is because of my strong persecution that it caused a gap between the two of them, so when Sophia was born, there were rumors, and some people said that Sophia is my daughter, in order to maintain the relationship between their husband and wife, I can only alienate this distance, but because of this, it has caused Sophia's suffering for so many years, but unfortunately, no one in the entire royal family understands my hard work."
"Born without pregnancy? This is indeed strange. Ning Caichen's heart was furious, of course he knew that there were two kinds of people who were born without pregnancy, one was a demon, who was born in the form of a fetus, and the other was a person who was blessed by God, who was born with qi, but no matter which one it was, they were not ordinary people, and in their bodies, they must have great power.
The old man shook his head and said: "Although my old man doesn't know what is going on, I have been faintly enlightened, this child has an important role in my royal family, so I will give him the title of a princess. ”
"She is a woman with a destiny, but she chose you, and you must not be simple when you think about it, otherwise with Sophia Ning's unbending surname, you will definitely not become one of your many women."
This old man knows a lot of things, and of course Ning Caichen also knows that the reason why Sophia is like this to him is not only to save the royal family and fulfill her promises, but also because they are destined by heaven, and they can't escape, since she can use the art of divination to find him, thousands of miles away, I think there must be something in it that connects them tightly.
In addition to Xiaoqian's nine doppelgangers, Ning Caichen really couldn't imagine how an Oriental and a Westerner would be entangled.
But just knowing that Sophia was born without pregnancy, Ning Caichen couldn't help but think about it a little more, or in addition to the nine doppelgangers, there are some unknown secrets in this woman's body, but it doesn't matter, no matter who she is or what kind of secret she has, she is his woman.
From the moment she walked into Ning's house, she should have known that this was fate and there was no way to escape.
"Old man, you know a lot of things, but I and Sophia are you and I will, no one can control it, even the royal family, of course, for Sophia's sake, I remind you, don't be in the same league with the Dark Council, otherwise your entire Greek royal family will become history forever."
