Chapter 125: The Mirror and the Crown

Gawain's words were very tactful, which made the little sunfish very useful, but the host of the feast, Godhilde, used a stern tone and rebuked Agnes, "The highest guest at today's banquet is His Royal Highness the Grand Duke, and the host is me, whether you are Agnes, or Anna, or the girl of the Orson family, you are all accompaniments to the wine and guests, and the other two have not embarrassed me as a host, only you Agnes, your behavior is not worthy of Prani's famous identity." ”

The host of the feast, Goethehild, was so ashamed of his words and solemn attitude that Agnes could only bow and apologize, and sat back in her seat.

At night, in the side hall in front of the bathrooms of the Adana Palace, Hertomia sat naturally on the desk by the wall, holding a pen and writing all kinds of documents, and the little sunfish clearly fulfilled Gawain's judgment of her: restless, pacing up and down the floor, and occasionally raising her glass, drinking a calm drink, and looking at the fluttering silk curtain with resentment in her eyes.

Because only through a layer of hanging curtains, Gawain and Anna, who had been separated for many months, were releasing their nostalgia and lingering for many months, and even the bracket of the bed was carved from the old trees on the Lulum Ridge, and they erupted into a groan of intense pain. The little sunfish saw that Anna's small figure behind the curtain was like the most flexible Saracen spinnaker on the sea, and it was turned over and over again on the "hull" of Gawain's great shore, and the shouts in her mouth became more and more uninhibited, and the pleading for the Virgin Mary became more and more frequent, like the drumbeat of the whole brigade on the battlefield.

"After all, the matter between me and Anna can only be scratched by her boots?" Agnes sat in a chair with a flask and her hair a little loose

I don't know how long it took, maybe it was the second degree, maybe it was the third degree, Gawain finally felt that his body bones were falling apart in the ****, so he fell on the couch, Anna curled up sweetly on her side, her hair was loosely braided, and her fingers slid along Gawain's sweaty sexy back line, "Did you receive the letter I sent you?" ”

"Well, I'm going to Seleucia tomorrow to see Inglana."

"Just go, I'll go with you." Anna understood that the widow was at a critical stage of pregnancy, and it was estimated that Gawain was afraid that she would be depressed and lonely, so there was no big problem.

Gawain felt that Anna had learned a lot of things lately, so he was relieved to hold her upside down in his arms, and used his fingers to braid her hair again, "Besides, we need to hurry up and summon Kabeamia again." ”

"What's the matter?" Anna's tone was suddenly unpleasant.

So Gawain attached it to her ears and whispered a few words, Anna's beautiful eyebrows moved twice, and her expression became grim, "Can you grasp such a thing?" ”

"I'll be in charge of the diplomatic paperwork, I'll be in charge of the military deployment, and the main force will be the Red Hand Cavalry, the Gimagith Brigade, and the Garrison. So what I said to the little sunfish at the feast was not to coax her, and I think Agnes also longed for revenge. As he spoke, Gawain's big hand gripped Anna's slippery little fragrant shoulder.

"It's always worth the risk, and if we were to stick to the old ways, the salt lakes of South Cappadocia wouldn't be in our hands." The princess, who accepted Gawain's plan, the flames in her eyes burned again, "Assist Godfrey in attacking the military in the Azadze region, are you responsible?" ”

"Merlot is in charge."

Anna nodded, clasped Gawain's fingers upside down with her snow-white wrist, and pulled it to her own small breast, "Then you stay with me in Seleucia, and we will settle this matter together." Now Seleucia is like a double-edged sword, between his father's empire and the Turks, and everything has to be done carefully to survive and expand its power. ”

Gawain sighed, and then shouted outside, "Hetomia! ”

Outside, before the sad Agnes could react, the girl from the Orson family stood up at the opposite table, quickly walked to the corner of the silk curtain, and whispered in a very standard manner, "Please tell us what you command." ”

"Send in the box with the lion pattern that I always carried with me when I went into battle."

"Yes, Grand Duke." When Hetomia's figure disappeared very quickly from the side of the curtain, Anna whispered to Gawain, "You have to take care of the little sunfish, she has been in a bad mood lately. ”

"Oh, for what reason?" Gawain's big hand leaned Anna's body against him.

"It's nothing, maybe it's a menstrual affair, right?" Anna also hurriedly prevaricated, Gawain's eyes flashed, so he didn't ask any further, and then turned his head and shouted, "Hetomia, you are not fully familiar with the palace, hand over the box to Agnes and let her deliver it." ”

"Yes."

After a while, Agnes set the box in front of the couch with some awkwardness, and then withdrew after the salute was finished. Anna covered her body with the silk carpet and half-sat up, asking Gawain, "What's in the box?" ”

"Then you turn around and face the hanging mirror at the head of the bed."

Anna turned around a little embarrassed and looked at herself in the mirror.

As a result, Gawain suddenly took out a golden crown with small colored diamonds from the box, and solemnly placed it on Anna's head, and Anna's eyes were wide in disbelief from all this, "There are seven serrated crowns, and the inscriptions on them represent the seven mountains from Cilicia to Constantinople, which I had captured from Prince Ruben of Armenia at the Battle of Mamisstra. Now as a gift, to its true owner, the future Empress Anna of Rome. His Highness Ducasse. ”

"It's my gift, oh my god, Gawain." Anna covered her mouth with both hands, overjoyed to herself.

"That's right, the revelations I made in my dreams are all true, and so are the vows I made to you. Believe it or not, this legendary crown is so suitable for you. As Gawain interpreted, Anna also gave up her reserve, and the silk carpet on her body slipped down onto the couch, wearing this elegant but lighter crown naked, and slowly crawled to the mirror, looking more intoxicated at her own projection inside.

"It's so small, I suspect Ruben and his father never wore it." Gawain was behind him, and then he saw Anna's sight, and his desire rose againβ€”and soon, Anna raised her forehead to see that in the mirror, a greedy brown bear suddenly appeared behind her (to be continued). )
