Winter in the Sumisipi River basin is as refreshing and pleasant as the late summer and early autumn, and the breeze is gentle.

Horses' hooves wade through shallow river streams, trampling through the tranquility of the plains, hounds frantically chasing fleeing prey, bows and arrows breaking through the air and men and women laughing and cheering mixed with the barking of men, a lively safari is underway.

This grand safari hosted by the two Majesties themselves lasted for 15 days, each with its own different events, and many of the young children who were able to accompany them were all gearing up to do their best to win a good place in order to show their faces in front of the two Majesties and gain favor like Viscount Ludwig.

Today is the second day of the safari and the eleventh day of the group's arrival at the Sumisibi Palace.

In the evening, another group of nobles returned with a full load.

The two horses at the head were embroidered with the golden three lions and the crimson dahlia emblem respectively, and it turned out that the hunting party of Prince Charles and Viscount Ludwig happened to return at the same time and ran into each other.

There was a tumult of the crowd at the entrance, and both men returned with their loads, and the sight of the prey on the back of the heavily dragged horse was a sight to behold.

"Look at the stag antlers! Oh, His Royal Highness Charles is awesome! See how graceful and calm he is on a horse! ”

"Viscount Ludwig is not bad, look at that silver fox, don't look at the little inconspicuous one, it is much more difficult to hunt than a stag!"

"It must be dedicated to Princess Victoria!"

"Her Royal Highness the Princess is very happy, it is said, on the part of Viscount Ludwig...... But it's strong! ”

The ladies and ladies who remained to sit under the color shed on the right side reserved their faces with fans. Whispering to each other, bursting with laughter from time to time, and occasionally seeing a knight returning with a large amount of prey, throwing out a handkerchief embroidered fan and cheering reservedly, provoked the young knights to look in this direction frequently.

"Look. His Royal Highness Charles has given away the prey, I don't know what he will give to those three families, doesn't it mean that His Highness's next marriage partner is likely to be the young lady of those three families? ”

The two good friends of the aristocratic ladies exchanged heads, quietly exchanged gossip, and commented on those outstanding aristocratic men.

"Won't you know tomorrow? Miss Ilde, Miss López, and Miss Stephanie will surely pass on the prey they have received! ”

"Go! It's just a candidate, what's there to show off! According to me, the two princesses have more face, and the prey harvested by the Archduke of Rünster and Viscount Ludwig was all given to his fiancée! ”

A young lady interjected on the side. Shaking the fan disdainfully, his tone sour.

"Charlotte, aren't you jealous?" The female companion quipped.

"You're jealous!" The girls were playing and laughing.

But thinking of the news of the engagement of these two pairs specially announced by His Majesty the Emperor on the first day of the safari, and the grand safari held specifically for the engagement of the two princesses, which young lady can not be sour?

In the area where the noblewomen gathered. The ladies listened to the whispers of the maidens. Shaking his head:

Are these children still young, they can be pleased just by these superficial vanity and flashiness, but they don't know how much sincerity a man can represent behind this flashy show-off?

Not to mention anything else, the male protagonist, who was rumored to have a friendship with Lady Purple Rose in the imperial capital some time ago, stood next to Princess Elizabeth at this time like a couple, but a clear-eyed person, who wouldn't guess the appearance of the marriage between the two countries?

Women talk about men, and men naturally talk about women.

"Without the Purple Rose Lady, I always feel that this safari has lost a lot of color."

Opposite the women's seats is a gathering area for men. After Leonardo took a sip of red wine, he said this to James on the side, put down his wine glass, and many men nearby looked at it intentionally or unintentionally.

Most of them looked meaningful, glancing at the many ladies on the opposite table.

"What do you think I'm doing?" James rolled his eyes.

"Of course, I want to ask when the Lady of the Purple Rose will be back! If it weren't for the news of His Highness Byron, who kept sending things back in batches from the northern foot of the Rocky Mountains, we would probably still be kept in the dark, thinking that she was really in retreat and cultivating, but I didn't expect to hide so many people and run out with His Highness Byron! ”

Leonardo pretended to whisper close to James's ear, but it was neither high nor low, just enough for the men nearby who had pricked up their ears to hear, "...... You and Lady Purple Rose are acquaintances, don't you have a little news? When will she come back? ”

"You ask me, who do I ask? It's not me who went out with her, why don't you ask Baron Cameron? ”

The Cameron family is the family of the second princess.

James was a little offended.

He really didn't know the news of Lin An's departure, but there were also many deaf and blind people in the major families in the imperial capital, and with the movement they caused in the Lop Nur Pass, and even mobilized the army, the rumors naturally inevitably appeared.

"I have heard from my uncle about the return date of His Royal Highness Byron and the Lady of the Purple Rose!"

It was a distant nephew of Count Jefa who spoke, and because of his good ability, he was quite loved by Count Jefa, "According to Uncle Alpha, Your Highness, they have already set off and are now on their way back, accompanied by Princess Joanna, whom they met by chance. ”

"Princess Joanna? Her Royal Highness, the only princess in Meryl's royal family? Someone wondered, "Isn't it said that she suffers from asthma and is not adapted to the climate on our side?" How did you run to the Lop Nur Pass and be met by His Royal Highness Byron? ”

"Hehe, maybe Her Royal Highness the princess's illness will suddenly be cured!"

"It is said that Her Royal Highness the princess is also a beauty!"

"His Royal Highness Yokyadan is really a blessing!"

Everyone tacitly discussed a few words and changed the subject.

"Speaking of Yanfu, I don't think anyone can compare to the Grand Duke of Lanster, as soon as Princess Elizabeth's marriage contract was announced, it is said that the Grand Duke of Lanster privately received several invitations to duels!"

"What's more, in addition to Princess Elizabeth, the purple rose, which has never given people a word, is also said to be a close friend of the Grand Duke of Ranster! ……”

"But in my opinion. Those two are as difficult to pick as kaolin flowers, but they are still too green, and I still prefer young women with charm! ”

"So, is Viscount Ludwig more envious to you?"

"Needless to say!"

The men chuckled.

One of the protagonists of the discussion, at this time, is strolling towards Victoria.

The attendants behind him led the horses laden with prey. Far below Victoria's seat, the ladies browsed one by one, and after Victoria had received the envy of the crowd, she led the horses out of the field, and the prey had to be processed before they could be presented to Her Royal Highness the Princess.

The valiant knight naturally received a reserved kiss from Princess Victoria as a token of gratitude, and the fiancé walked out together.

Standing not far away, Lancet and Elizabeth smiled and waved goodbye to the two, watching them leave, their backs in harmony.

"Looks like you're overthinking, Elizabeth." A faint smile tugged at the corner of Lancet's mouth, "Princess Victoria looks very happy, they are a perfect match, aren't they?" ”

"Just like we seem? If I had known that Viscount Ludwig had been in an affair with the Lady of the Purple Rose, I would have prevented Via from getting engaged to him. ”

Elizabeth smiled too. The expressions of the two looked somewhat similar. To outsiders, their atmosphere is like that of a young man and woman in love, who cannot intervene, but they don't know what they whisper, and it has nothing to do with love words.

"What does this have to do with Ann? You should know that from the beginning to the end, she didn't interfere in anything. There was a hint of coldness in Lancet's gentle voice.

"It's certainly not her fault that every man who has seen her is remembered, but it shouldn't be the fault of the innocent. I am willing to marry you, so I have no complaints. But as a younger sister, I only hope that Viva's second marriage will bring her happiness. ”

Elizabeth's voice was mournful.

"Why do you think they won't be happy." Lancet was displeased.

"It was an intuition, a woman's intuition," Elizabeth whispered, "I don't feel Viscount Ludwig's heart, it's not on Via's body, it's left somewhere. ”

Lancet frowned.

He regretted it a little, and the last time he inadvertently leaked during the conversation, Elizabeth knew about a relationship between Ludwig and Lin An.

It was mixed in with Bishop's combing of the front-line war events, and it also led him to be absent-minded for the next two days, so that he inadvertently revealed his feelings and a little tone, which Elizabeth deduced according to clues.

However, for Ludwig's marriage to Victoria, Ranster was pleased to see it:

Whether it was the jealousy that belonged to a man in his heart, or because of Ludwig's pursuit of Victoria's ambitious means, he didn't think it was a good thing for Ann to continue to have a relationship with this man, and many times when he met this man, even if he smiled on the surface, he would still unconsciously pass an inexplicable chill in his heart.

Sumisibi Palace.

Beneath the calm surface, there is a surging mockery.

"That captain of the guard is crazy?"

The Emperor stared at the projection opposite, and the "Cunning Fox" Pattith knelt in front of him, and the Emperor asked coldly, "What about the confession?" ”

"It has been ascertained that he is indeed the captain of His Highness Charles' personal guard, but since his capture, he has kept his mouth shut, neither identifying His Highness Charles, nor confessing to anyone.

His Majesty suspected that he might have an important handle or hostage to be held hostage by those behind the scenes, but when he was tortured for less than half a magic, he suddenly went insane, his brain memory was confused, and even magic could not trace the truth, and it was later proven that his madness was the result of a pre-ingested potion. ”

The Emperor was silent for a moment.

"Create a reasonable process for him to 'die in the line of duty' in full view. As for the Saxons, they tried their best to rescue, and all those who witnessed the assassination were sealed. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

A faint word, hundreds of lives were buried in it.
