Chapter Fifty-Nine: Stronghold

Sunlight streams in through the curved windows, covering the entire floor.

The green and gold blanket is full of life in the sunlight, like a lawn, and the desk placed on it is a little mottled and full of traces of time.

And the person who wrote the case was extremely young.

The attendants around looked at the princess with admiration.

They never imagined that a minor would be able to do it to such an extent, not only in order with everything, but also in advance.

It's simply better than ......

The departed king was even more powerful.

Looking at the underage princess sitting in the sun, the waiters unconsciously ignored each other's age, as if there was a real queen.

"Go and declare it."

When the immature voice that could not be concealed sounded, a court attendant immediately stepped forward and took the document.

"Yes, Your Highness."

After saluting respectfully, the other party bent down and withdrew from the temporary palace, and when Perikna appeared, the rest of the people also left at the signal of the princess.

"What's wrong?"

Mary looked at Perikna.

As Qin Ran began to learn the [mysterious knowledge] related to the Crow Sect, the other party almost became Qin Ran's mouthpiece, and some things were told to Mary by the other party.

Of course, it's all inconsequential.

The real thing that matters is the responsibility of the controlled ape faction, Ganard.

In fact, at this moment, the ape sect was hiding on the beams of the palace.

He was responsible for protecting Mary according to Qin Ran's orders.

Even if that Earl Shilin had always been nearby, Qin Ran definitely didn't mind putting an extra insurance next to Mary.

"It's related to Lord White Wolf."

"Lord White Wolf just rejected the cooperation of the Ape Sect, and also, in an almost humiliating way, expelled the Ahuizotl, and I fear that the Ahuizotl will retaliate."

"After all......"

"Soon it will be His Majesty's funeral."

Perikna looked at Mary's expression, and when she confirmed that there was nothing unusual about the princess in front of her, she said slowly.

"What does 2567 say?"

Mary sat up straight and asked dryly.

"Lord White Wolf asked me to come to you."

A wry smile crossed Perikna's face.

To be honest, the female leader of the Snake Sect didn't understand what Qin Ran wanted to do.

Not only did she refuse the help of the Ape Sect, but she also seemed to have thrown the mess to the princess in front of her, if she didn't understand the intimate relationship between the two, the female leader of the Snake Sect would definitely think that Qin Ran was deliberately framing the other party.

"yes, I see."

Mary nodded, her face thoughtful.

Looking at such a look, the wry smile on the face of the female leader of the snake sect became more and more intense.

The reason why she guessed that Qin Ran and Mary had an absolutely intimate relationship was inseparable from this kind of fan-like rumors, and the words that seemed to her to be incomprehensible became easy to understand between the two.

At this moment, the female leader of the Serpent Sect felt that she was in dire need of a translator.

Curiosity kills cats.

That's because, if you don't satisfy your curiosity, it's worse than death.

Whew, whew.

The female leader of the snake faction quickly adjusted her breathing.

She used her old training to restrain her curiosity.

As for how much use?

Then God really knows.

"Don't worry."

"Just believe in 2567."

After seeing the expression of the female leader of the snake faction, the underage princess comforted her like this.

It's a pity that such comforting words have no effect at all except to make the female leader of the snake faction more curious.

However, in this regard, the underage princess did not pay much attention to it.

After glancing at the hourglass on the table, she said straightforwardly, "I need to rest for a while, let the kitchen prepare lunch, and send it to room 2567." ”

"Yes, Your Highness."

The female leader of the snake faction bowed down.

……

Lunch was hearty and satisfying.

The refreshments after the meal also made Qin Ran feel satisfied.

"The tea and the steak just now are really a perfect match."

Leaning on the sofa beside Qin Ran, Mary stretched and let out a long sigh.

Only by Qin Ran's side will the underage princess show her due appearance in line with her age.

It's not just trust.

And also......

Dependency.

They are like twins, making Mary regard Qin Ran as the closest person.

It allows Mary to take off the princess's mask and smile sincerely.

Looking at this warm smile, the corners of Qin Ran's mouth also turned up slightly, but this did not prevent him from putting forward his own opinions.

"The steak just now is too delicate."

"The essence of the steak should be thick – not only large, but also thick enough that all the juice will overflow when you bite into it."

"Moreover, the clear tea is the latter match, and the real match should be lime or sour plum."

"Of course, it would be perfect if you could add some sour plum juice to marinate."

Qin Ran said very seriously.

"But doesn't that conflict with the vanilla juice poured over the steak?"

Mary looked at Qin Ran puzzled.

"The vanilla juice is mild, not black pepper."

"They're in everything, and they don't conflict."

"In fact, even black pepper has a way to counteract such conflicts."

Qin Ran explained with a smile.

"I see."

Mary nodded abruptly.

And the female leader of the snake faction standing in the corner couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth.

She never imagined that the feared wolf faction 'White Wolf' would seriously introduce the way of cooking to a princess and future queen.

Was it the wrong way she opened it?

Or were the two of them using some secret language she didn't understand?

And......

Why did she look at the two people sitting there, her chest was tight, and her mouth seemed to be forcibly stuffed with some kind of biscuit-like pet food......

It's so dry.

It's unpalatable.

I can't eat it at all.

Whew, whew!

Once again, the female leader of the Snake Sect began to take a deep breath, once again using the secret techniques of the Snake Sect to adjust her emotions.

Even she didn't realize that in the last few days, this secret technique of hers was improving at a staggering rate.

The female leader of the Snake Sect, who had once again regained her composure, looked at Qin Ran and Mary again.

Fortunately, this time, she could understand the conversation between the two sides

"The funeral of 'Father' will be held tomorrow night, according to Warren tradition."

"Everything is ready."

"I will try to restrain my grief ......"

When Mary mentions 'Father', there is an unconcealed sentimentality in her countenance.

The sound is even more choppy.

It was the first crow that died, yes.

But the same as her father.

If the other party is still alive, she must not know what kind of expression to use to face such a father.

But now, the other party is dead.

She went to attend and officiate at the funeral.

The rest is sadness.

And then......

She felt the warmth above her head.

Subconsciously raised her head, she saw Qin Ran's smile, and Qin Ran's words came into her ears even more clearly.

"Restraint?"

"No."

"Tomorrow night, you can do whatever you want."

"If you want to cry, cry loudly."

"If you want to laugh, laugh heartily."

"The rest of ......"

"Leave it to me."
