The rocking carriage made Liszt drowsy.

All the way from Sea Crab City, bumpy to Red Rock City, stay in Red Rock City for another night, wait until dawn, another two hours of driving, and finally see the Long Taro Fort towering in the middle of the mountain.

The fort is almost four times the size of the Tulip Fort, with an arrow tower of one or two hundred meters high, and because it is located halfway up the mountain, the castle almost merges with the mountains.

Liszt once visited Neuschwanstein Castle in Europe in his home planet.

Neuschwanstein Castle is similar to the majesty of Tulip Castle, except that it does not have the steep terrain of Tulip Castle against the cliffs. But compared to the Taro Fort in front of it, Neuschwanstein Castle is so small. It's just a long taro castle, which has the momentum of the White City in "The Lord of the Rings".

Below the castle, is a city.

The carriage did not need to pass through the city, but went directly along a slightly steep mountain road towards the castle. Halfway through the journey, he was discovered and greeted by the knights of the Long Taro Castle, and learned that it was a relative of the Tulip family, and the knights immediately escorted the carriage to the castle.

And there are knights galloping up the mountain, go to notice in advance.

So when the carriage came to the gate of the castle, the heir of the castle and the cousin of the three siblings, Meopal Taro, was already waiting here with his servants.

"Levi's, Livivi, Liszt. Mei Opal is a talent, personable, sapphire-like eyes, exceptionally beautiful, "I received the letter and knew that you were coming, I have been waiting for a long time, everything went well on the way, right?"

Liszt had to admit it.

This cousin is very outstanding in terms of appearance and temperament, and he is on a par with himself. Standing together, it is more like a pair of brothers than with Levi.

"May Opal cousin, everything is going well. ”

"Cousin, you're prettier than you were last year. ”

"Thank you, cousin, for the compliment, but compared to your pretty face, I always felt like I was laughing at me. Li Weiwei looked at Mei Opal, half joking and half serious.

Mei Opal laughed, "It's not something I can refuse, you say yes, Liszt." The second half of the sentence was addressed to Liszt.

Liszt smiled slightly.

finally determined that Li Weiwei had bullied him for so many years, just because she was jealous of her looks: "My cousin is right. ”

"Haha, sure enough, there is the same point of view among the heroes, let's go, enter the castle, my father is in charge of this quarter's taxes in the field, and he hasn't come back for the time being. Grandpa is recuperating and he's glad to hear you're here. ”

"How is my grandfather's health?"

Mei Opal sighed: "Grandpa's illness is a complication caused by the recurrence of old injuries, sometimes good and sometimes bad, the Grand Duke has sent the palace imperial doctor to treat Grandpa, I believe it will get better." ”

......

In the ornate bedroom, on the bed sat the master of Red Crab Island, one of the seven marquis of the Grand Duchy, the former captain of the palace fleet, and the most honorable person in the castle of Long Taro.

Merlin Long Taro.

It was an old man in his seventies, with a pale, wrinkled face, which, despite the majesty of long-term pampering, could no longer hide the weakness of old age and sickness.

Even the Sky Knight, who was able to soar through the air in the past, couldn't stand the carving of the knife of the years.

The sapphire blue eyes were already white, not to mention the gray hair.

He leaned quietly on the head of the bed, a low-legged coffee table resting on the quilt, and was struggling to write on thick paper with a quill dipped in ink.

The age spots on the face are particularly conspicuous.

"Master, Young Master Sun has already brought the three Young Master Sun and Miss Sun of the Tulip Family into the castle. The butler, who was almost as old as the Marquis of Merlin, could not bear to disturb him, and lowered his tone very slightly.

The Marquis of Merlin's pen paused slightly, and continued to write, without looking up: "Melissa's children, then let them come and visit me, an old man who is half in the ground." ”

"Sir, you are only in poor health for the time being, and you will recover soon, but you said that you will live to be a hundred years old and survive the Marquis of Wallace next door. ”

"Haha, I also threatened the Grand Duke's Sapphire Dragon, and if I didn't become the Lord of the Dragon Domain, I would kill it. But it didn't work, this time, I definitely lost to the old immortal guy. The Marquis of Merlin smiled heartily, quickly finished the last few words, and put down the pen.

The servant who was waiting for him immediately took the coffee table away.

The old butler supported the marquis, leaned back against the bed, and sat down firmly. Then he leaned over again and straightened the red bow tie on the marquis's chest.

A servant brought a bronze mirror.

Some of the other servants brought water, some towels, and some hairpins, and served the marquis in turn.

The Marquis carefully freshened his image, from the old man in the old age of the wind and candles, quickly returned to the majestic appearance, and then, he waited.

Hearing the familiar footsteps outside the door, the cloudy eyes couldn't help but shine a glimmer of brilliance.

Soon it was hidden again.

Mei Opal, with her three siblings, had already walked into the bedroom.

Levi took the lead, took Li Weiwei and Liszt, walked quickly to the bed, and showed the courtesy of a junior to the Marquis of Merlin: "Grandpa, Li Weiwei and Liszt and I have come to visit you, and my father has also entrusted me to bring you sincere greetings, hoping that you will recover immediately and restore the demeanor of the owner of the Long Taro Castle." ”

"Your father has a heart. The Marquis nodded faintly, "Did the journey go well?"

"It went smoothly. ”

"That's good, since I've come to visit my grandfather, I'll stay in the castle for a few more days. ”

"Yes, Grandpa. ”

The marquis's gaze crossed Levi's and Li Weiwei, and put it on Liszt, with a look of remembrance in his eyes: "Liszt, you are an adult." ”

"Yes, March 9 this year is my coming-of-age ceremony. ”

"I heard that your father made you a baron, in which town?"

"Flower Town. ”

"Well, I can't tell a single viscount, it seems that William Li, the earl, is a failure. Marquis Merlin commented very unceremoniously, and his tone turned to emotion, "I didn't witness your coming-of-age ceremony, Melissa will definitely blame me, and when I see you, it's as if Melissa is standing in front of me." ”

Mei Opal echoed: "Grandpa, Cousin Liszt is indeed too similar to Aunt Melissa, I saw Aunt Melissa when I was a child, and I thought that the taro flower was really the most dazzling flower in the Grand Duchy. ”

"I can't remember what my mother looked like, but I can only look at it from the portrait of the Tulip Castle. Liszt said that the predecessor did not have the memory of his mother.

When Liszt was two years old, Melissa had already died, and what memories could a two-year-old child have.

There are portraits of Melissa in the castle, but they are not often seen, and even if they are, they are highly distorted portraits, making it difficult to show the appearance of real people.

It's a pity.

The marquis's mood quickly converged: "For more than ten years, sometimes it seems like it happened yesterday...... You should be tired all the way, May Opal, take your cousins and cousins to rest, and I hope the boys and girls are in good spirits at luncheon. Also, time permitting, tomorrow night, you young people should have a ball, and it will be lively. ”
