Maggie, who was carrying the Philosopher's stone lamp, walked slowly in the corridor, and after a few steps, she would stop, look left and right, and then continue to walk forward.

This is a typical night patrol action.

Since some of the puppet blueprints were stolen, the Elven Empress ordered that after dusk, several maids should patrol the night at regular intervals, each of whom was in charge of an area, and if they found anything unusual, they would immediately alert the other maids.

It seems that at this time, it is she who patrols the night in this place.

He took out a silver coin from his pocket, clasped it on his fingertips, flicked it hard, and with a crisp sound, the silver coin tossed into the air, landed impartially at Maggie's feet, spun around, and then stopped.

Maggie didn't squeak, but immediately turned the philosopher's stone and shone it on my side, and after seeing who I was, she first exclaimed, then walked quickly, and said respectfully: "I've seen Lord An Xiaoyi." ”

I know the reason why she exclaimed, isn't it that I have no hair, really, all the fuss.

Touching my bald head, I said, "Excuse me, this time is your night patrol?" ”

She said 'um' and said, "Lord An Xiaoyi must have something to do if he doesn't go through the main door, is there anything I can do for you?" ”

"Where does the Fairy Empress live now?"

"In the third side hall," Maggie said, "Her Majesty the Fairy Empress is reviewing the documents. ”

"Who's with her?"

"No," Maggie said, "Your Majesty doesn't want to be disturbed when he is reading the documents. ”

"Very good," I said, "thank you." ”

"It's my pleasure to serve you," Maggie bowed, carrying the Philosopher's Stone, and continued to the next place.

Picking up the silver coins on the ground, I continued to stick to the base of the wall and walked towards the third side hall.

The elf palace is majestic and magnificent, one of which is the main hall, but there are many side halls, the main hall is simply used to carry out the meeting in the hall, and the side hall is used in many ways, you can meet guests, you can review documents, and you can even use it to rest.

Speaking of which, the Elven Palace was originally not called this name, but was called the Moonlight City Palace, but because of that special period of black history, it was renamed the Elven Palace.

Now although the goblin clan has returned to its place, the name of the elf palace has become a habit for everyone, and as for the 'Moonlight City Palace', it can only regrettably withdraw from the stage of history and be engraved in the history books.

Quietly walking into the third side hall, the fairy queen was engrossed in reviewing the documents, in order not to disturb her, I decided to find a place to rest lightly, and after she finished reviewing the documents, I would talk to her.

I walked step by step to the chair near the door, and was about to sit down gently, before my butt touched the chair, I heard a gentle voice sound: "You child, since you are here, you don't say a word, how can you be like a thief, and you are not afraid of scaring the old man?" ”

"How can it" Seeing that it was discovered, I hehehe: "I'm not afraid of disturbing your work~"

The Fairy Empress slowly stood up, turned to me, and after seeing my appearance clearly, he smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for a few days, why are you bald?" ”

"No, I'm ...... Shaved, yes, shaved. ”

"How do you shave your hair properly? Wasn't your previous hairstyle pretty good? ”

"Well, you're talking about it, it's the day...... It's not hot, I'm afraid of lice. ”

"Lice?" The Fairy Empress shook her head again and again: "It's the first time I've heard that people who take a bath every day still have lice, forget it, don't bother with your bald head." ”

As she spoke, she looked behind me, "You came back by yourself?" ”

"Well, I'm back by myself, and they're still watching the game in Dasai City."

"Why didn't you watch the game with them?" The Fairy Empress said, "Is there anything particularly important that needs to be reported to me?" ”

"It's not particularly important, but I think it's better to say it sooner rather than later."

The Fairy Empress stared at me and nodded, "What's the matter, just say it." ”

I recounted to the Elf Empress what the High Priest had said to me before, especially with regard to war.

The Fairy Empress's face remained unchanged, but the hand holding the Moonlight Scepter became harder: "Is this really what the High Priest said?" ”

"Besides, why should I lie to you!" I said. Well, by the way, if you don't believe me, when Old Man Taylor comes back, you can ask him for proof. ”

"It's not that I don't believe your words, but I think it's a little incredible," the empress said, "The high priest didn't tell us the city lords about this matter, but he specifically told you about it, and I can't figure out why. ”

"Maybe it's because this war is also directly related to me."

"The High Priest says you're going to be drawn into this war too?" The fairy queen turned pale and said.

"Yes" I nodded: "The high priest said that I would not only be caught up in it, but also be the most critical point. ”

"This ...... This can't be done" The base of the Moonlight Scepter tapped on the ground, making a low sound, the fairy empress had a serious face, she kept pacing back and forth, walking a dozen times, and suddenly stopped, she said, "How can I involve you in such a dangerous incident!" If something happens to you, little Remy will hate me for the rest of his life! No, absolutely not! ”

When I said the last sentence, the domineering spirit of the fairy queen had gradually affected me, making me a little uncomfortable standing aside.

Clearing my throat, and at the same time to hide the uneasiness in my heart, I stepped forward and said, "Grandma Empress, I'm afraid this matter is not out of your control, you don't know, in order to make me fully prepared, the high priest even came forward to extend my marriage. ”

"What!"

The Fairy Empress was stunned for a moment, and her whole person froze in place, like a puppet.

After a few seconds, the domineering momentum collapsed, she sat back in her chair, sighed, and instantly returned to the appearance of an old man.

"Since the high priest can personally come forward to extend the marriage, it seems that you really can't escape this war" She sighed deeply, quite helpless.

"You don't have to worry so much," I persuaded her: "Think about it, I've gone through so many things, haven't I always been alive and well~"

"It's different" The Fairy Empress shook her head and said, "This is war, different from monster farming, it is a battle between people, its cruelty, its tragedy, and even the tragedy it brings, it is not something you can imagine!" ”

"Don't worry, Grandma Empress, I can't hide it, I have had many experiences in battles between people, especially the battle of life and death."

The Fairy Empress didn't respond to me, but turned her head to stare at me, a little, and she said, "Xiao Yi, didn't the high priest say that you would survive this war safely?" ”

Did you say it or didn't say it?

Should I tell a lie to make her old man feel at ease, or should I tell the truth and let her old man feel sorry?

At this moment, I was very embarrassed, no, I should say quite difficult.

White lies or cruel truths, which one should I choose?
