Chapter 11: Lidong's First Wish
"Lidong's brother is a big nobleman, and from today on, so will Lidong."
Lidong's pursed lips and smile melted the frozen sadness on her face. In the eyes of others, Aaron's words seem to have woven a sweet dream for her. But Lidong was convinced of this sentence, raised his forehead, and looked at Aaron obliquely, her eyes narrowed into a slit.
Falling under her feet, she was almost knocked down, Lidong lowered her head, a step behind, and when she saw Aaron's tattered robe, revealing the bare cheeks inside, and her face, pale from the cold wind, quickly flushed slightly.
"Brother, I'm going to use my first wish!"
Without waiting for Aaron to react, Lidong got rid of his little hand, left him, and ran to a shop on the side of the street.
A kind girl with a bleak background was born with an intriguing story......
Aaron's long black eyelashes, against his cold eyes, drew two pitch-black arcs, and his feet immediately followed quickly.
A silver hairpin should be a relic belonging to Lidong's relatives.
When the merchants of Shigang City were about to raise their hands to drive Lidong away, they saw this silver hairpin, and their faces immediately changed to another expression, greedy but unfriendly.
"Beggar, where did you steal this......"
Bangββββ
The three-centimeter-thick bluestone floor showed signs of cracking under Aaron's foot in the shop.
Because of greed, there are always many ugly faces in this world.
"Don't be embarrassed for this girl from a miserable background, or you'll regret doing it."
The cold warning, at the right time, stopped the other party's cruelty that swelled because of greed.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Two minutes later, in the company of Aaron. Lidong leaves the humble shop.
A comb and a coarse cloth cloak that was not flashy fell into Aaron's eyes, and this was Lidong's first wish.
On the corner of the street, you can ignore the endless flow of people.
In this moment, it is a forgotten corner, a quiet world temporarily cut off.
"Brother, you squat down!"
A handkerchief wrapped in a cloud of snow brushed Aaron's forehead and face.
Later, the brisk little hands slowly parted his hair one by one with a comb......
Half an hour later, wearing a black cloak. It looks like Aaron is in great shape.
The facial features are clear and deep, like a copy of the Greek god of war sculpture, dark and deep silver eyes, with an evil coldness like ice and snow.
"Ahh Lidong exclaimed. Everything in front of her surprised her.
In Lidong's vision. With long silver hair, the waterfall was obediently placed behind Aaron. The three-dimensional facial features are as handsome as a knife. shows a resolute and strong heroic spirit.
Albeit. Forgetting the key shoes, Lidong felt guilty and distressed. But Aaron's handsome and prominent facial features and perfect face shape still make Lidong unbelievable.
"Lidong, use the things you cherish the most, in exchange for these, it's not worth it-!"
From top to bottom. Staring at those clear eyes, Aaron's glowing pupils were motionless.
But this was Lidong's first wish, and he had no way to refuse.
"Ahh
Looking at Lidong, his face suddenly turned red and lowered his head. Straighten the folds of the cloak.
Her brisk and busy movements made Aaron's wry smile ripple like a rock falling into a pond.
"Brother, we're going to the city lord...... The palace, you look like that, but you're going to be kicked out. β
Lidong stuck out his tongue and snickered while trying to defend himself.
In her heart, she believed that Aaron was a great nobleman, just like her grandfather, who was once a respected baron a long, long time ago.
It's just that the young Lidong makes her sad why her brother and her grandfather are exactly the same, and why in this world, good people always can't survive.
The palm landed on Lidong's head and patted it gently.
Putting down the cloak and hat, Aaron took Lidong's little hand and walked out of the street corner, this short process did not attract the attention of passers-by.
After 1 hour.
They came to the end of the convergence of the six streets.
Lidong has lived in this stone hill city for ten years, but she has never been here once, which can be judged from her shocked expression and timid steps.
"Lidong, don't be afraid!" Pulling Lidong's little hand, Aaron comforted him, one large and one small, two pairs of bare feet, and officially walked into the edge of the square, which seemed incompatible with the palatial architectural arrangement.
In the horizon, the fine white marble paved floor, shining with a warm light, allowed Aaron to witness the ultimate luxury of the Earl of Stone Gang City.
In a magnificent palace shrouded in mist, gold-armored warriors carved from a single boulder stood guard in front of the palace gates, and wore golden cloaks, whipped in the cold wind, majestic and burly.
All the residential buildings at the end of the street are generally blue exterior colors, which set off the magnificence and supremacy of this white palace.
At the end of a straight road, the huge square, with the marble steps rising in front of the palace doors, gives the illusion of a sensory illusion that is slowly sinking underfoot.
Aaron looked around, able to brave the cold wind to come to the square and wait for the distribution of free food, most of whom were poor people in Stone Gang who did not have enough to eat.
The wealthier commoners and merchants of Shigang City hid in the corridors of the cyan buildings, condescendingly watching the entire square below, and from time to time raised their heads to look at the magnificent palace gate opposite, hoping to see more aristocratic figures.
As for those nobles in Shigang City, they only need to report their own title level.
You can pass through the heavily guarded avenue in the middle of the square to dine in the magnificent palace, witness the marriage of the Shigang people and the Eagle's Nest people, and see the magnificent face of the daughter of the eagle.
"By the orders of the Earl, when the time reaches noon, food will be distributed free of charge. Don't squeeze now, anyone who dares to cross the Praetorian Line will be sent to the dungeon at once! β
A large number of Janissaries, covering the wide avenue in the middle of the square, struggled to maintain order.
and quickly pulled out a few civilians who had been squeezed through the Praetorian Guard line and beat them up and dragged them away in full view.
Compared with these voices of scolding and beating civilians, from time to time, the noble names of the Marquis and Baron of So-and-so resounded throughout the square, and they were allowed to pass by the Praetorian Guards who stopped in front of the palace gate.
β¦β¦
In addition to the thousands of Praetorian Guards, at this time, in the outer area of the square, there were tens of thousands of city defense troops lined up in a neat array, and then stood in the corners of four different squares, waiting to deal with emergencies.
As a city gate captain, Dorkin is dissatisfied with his boss. "Damn Baron Burke, captain of the city defense barracks, it's been such a cold weather to transfer me here to stand guard. Just in case, in case of P's accident. Who in Shigang City has the courage to break through the Praetorian Guard, damn, Lao Tzu also wants to drink a pot of fruit wine in the palace and look at the beautiful face of the eagle's daughter. β
The chattering and whispering curses caused several surrounding city guards to hold back laughter.
But overall, Dow Kim is in a good mood today, because just yesterday, he got 100 gold coins at the auction house.
Yes, that spear is worth 100 golden coins, it's unbelievable.
Spend this wealth and be ruthless, you can buy 1 baron.
Although Dawkin was reluctant to do so, he had clearly put his value on the same level as Baron Burke.
This leisurely smile lasted until Dojin's pupils, and he suddenly saw a back that felt familiar to him.
"It's not dead yet...... although there is an extra black cloak, Dorkin still recognizes it at a sight. It was an indelible impression in this life, so I could never fool him.
It's just that the incomprehensible scene in front of him made him gasp quickly, "He...... He actually stepped on the janissary line in the middle of the square. Don't want to live anymore? β
Huhuhu-
Under the layers of dense blades, in Dao Jin's ears, he heard a noble title that made him stunned, and that feeling was like an abyssal worm, roaring in his eardrums.
"Soldier, inform your Count of my arrival at once. From the family of the Duke of Reinhardt, the ruler of the North, I am the son of the Duke, - Augustus. Aaron. Reinhart! β
As Aaron lifted off his cloak, he had significant silver hair and silver eyes, and a resolute and handsome cheek.
In the eyes of a little more knowledgeable, such physical characteristics mark a much-anticipated, well-known royal bloodline - Reinhardt. (To be continued......)
