Chapter Eighty-Five: A Sudden Confession
"The defeat of the Black Rose Knights and the total destruction of their members, even Dawn Moon...... Well, Miss Evelina was also rescued from the pile of dead bodies by me and His Highness, and if it weren't for the accidental discovery that she was still alive, I'm afraid it would be ......"
Navis shook his head, and the words behind him were silent, but the girl smiled "poof" when she heard this, and then raised her eyebrows and said, "Accident? Do you dare to say that your trip to the Plains of Sauron was just an accident? β
"We ......"
Navis paused slightly, how could he not hear the mockery in the girl's mouth? It's just that their purpose in this matter is not very simple, and even if they justify, they will only appear weak, and the girl seems to see this, and even her tone has changed again.
"Okay, I can probably guess what things are like just by looking at your expression." The girl shook her head slightly, and the faint helplessness in her voice was replaced by Ling Li in just an instant, "Although it is a bit late to say this now, I will never let anyone with a simple purpose approach Xiao, even if you save her, you will save me." β
Not a simple two: "......" so can they first ask who the non-simple purpose is talking about?
"Of course, it's true that you saved Xiao anyway, but she has already repaid this favor by helping you train the soldiers; As for me...... Naturally, I won't ignore or shy away, so let's say, what do you want me to do? As long as it is within the boundaries of human morality...... Well, of course it's okay to get married or something, after all...... If I am asked to roll the sheets with a man, I'd rather sleep in the wilderness. β
Ronald Navis: "......" So, girl, how much do you have a grudge against this man? And what the hell is that rolling sheet of yours? Definitely not what they understood it, right? Absolutely not!
The corners of Navis's mouth twitched and looked at the girl in front of him who almost wrote the word "disgust" on her face, and he suddenly felt that Xiao Yueluo's poisonous tongue was nothing in front of her...... No, it should be said that it is an angel, after all, someone does not come to scold him for no reason, and he treats people well...... Kind...... his MMP's kindness!
οΌβ―β΅β‘β²οΌβ―οΈ΅β΄ββ΄
Feelings: In front of these two people, he is the one who has been scolded!
Just look at the one in front of you and maybe you can't see it, after all, it belongs to indiscriminate male bombing, but Xiao Yueluo's side ...... Except for the enemy and him, it seems that he has always treated people well.
"What's wrong with him?"
Glancing at Navis's ever-changing expression of blue and black, frowning for a while and contemplative for a while, the girl couldn't help but be a little speechless, she didn't seem to say anything just now, right?
"It's just a convulsion from time to time, you don't have to pay attention to him."
Navis, who has just come back to his senses: "......" GodTM's irregular convulsions!
(βΌDishβΌ#)
"It's you, you don't have to help me do things, there is something I want to ask you."
"Got any news about Akatsuki?" The girl frowned and looked at the person in front of her, with some hesitation on her expression, and when she saw Ronald nodding, her eyebrows furrowed even deeper, "Are you sure you want to know?" β
"Yes."
ββ¦β¦β
Silence broke out instantly at this moment, and after the two looked at each other for a moment, the girl sighed: "Okay, for the sake of your persistence, it's not impossible to tell you, but...... Are you enlightened? I'm afraid this news won't be what you want to know. β
"I ......" his hands clenched but quickly released again, and then Ronald looked up at the girl, his eyes slightly downcast, as if he had made up his mind, "Please tell me her news." β
She ...... He's dead. β
"Dead ......"
A moment of sparkling, and at the same time an inexplicable sourness filled the tip of the heart, and the girl looked at Ronald as if she was not excited enough and said again: "Yes, dead, right in front of me, not even a corpse left......"
"But you don't look sad at all."
"Yes, but that doesn't mean I don't care." The girl tilted her head and glanced at Navis who was standing aside, "It's just because I understand that sadness doesn't do anything, and of course if sadness can replace her, that's a different story." Moreover...... She said that one day we would meet again, so I believe that even if she disappears, she will definitely still be alive on this continent......"
The words rang in my ears again, and even after a month, the girl's voice was still extremely clear.
"Alas, that princess Rita is really, and she should have been guarded more in the first place." Glancing at someone who had once again fallen into his memory, Navis sighed and muttered to himself, "But...... is really a person who is not quite the same as the rumors, there should have been something that happened to her, otherwise it would have been more than half a year...... Forget it, it's better to mix less with other people's affairs, and now the top priority should be to deal with the current matter, otherwise I'm afraid that there will be trouble for His Highness again......"
The next morning, the main hall of the royal palace
Just like a flash in the pan, looking at the people sitting below, Xiao Yueluo remembered the events of last night again, but Ronald acted as if nothing had happened.
At the same time, everyone in the main hall of the palace was also staring at the man in the center, or Xiao Yueluo on the throne, as if they wanted to guess something from the expressions of the two.
"Presumably this is our first official meeting." The silence was eventually broken by Ronald's opening, "Purpose, I think it should have been mentioned last time Venus came. β
The corners of his mouth hooked up a faint smile, and while speaking, Ronald also glanced at the so-called nobles present, and his heart was clear for a while: It seems that the little girl has a lot of enemies, but I don't know if this group of people is also related to that side.
"Indeed, I have received His Highness's wishes, come on, and ...... things"
"Wait a minute."
βοΌβ Looking at the man who suddenly spoke out on the side with a puzzled look, Xiao Yueluo's face showed a puzzled look.
"Please wait a minute, Your Majesty, I have something to ask His Royal Highness the Third Prince." Vance's actions focused everyone's attention on him for a moment, even Ronald.
"Oh? Presumably you are the rumored Marquis Karl, right? Ronald was not annoyed by being stopped suddenly, but looked at Vance so calmly, "My butler was full of praise for you before." β
"......" The corners of Venus's mouth twitched slightly, and he thought back to that pitiful sporadic memory, as if he probably hadn't said it, right?
I remember the night before I left for the Empire of Ams.
"Do you know who this Carl is?" In the office in the villa, Ronald asked without raising his head while flipping through the Chinese documents in his hand.
"Van Scar, the only Marquis of Borgia, is highly gifted in both military and political affairs, and it can be said that if he is given enough time, he can build Borgia into another empire. Theoretically, yes. οΌ
"Oh? Another empire? I didn't expect you to have such a high opinion of a person. Putting down the document in his hand, Ronald's fingers clicked on the table from time to time, "I remember that you haven't given such a high evaluation to her, is there any reason?" β
"I'm just seeking truth from facts," the hostility in someone's words made Navis roll his eyes a little speechlessly, "Besides, this is just a theoretical statement, you must know that no matter how high the talent is, it is empty talk without help, after all, no one knows what will happen in reality, and you don't know what kind of personality that person is?" It is true that commanding and training the army is a good candidate, but it is better to run the country in the provinces. β
"Indeed, but is it realistic......
Drifting away thoughts, Venus shuddered, he could now understand what that mad smile was all about. Isn't it just a sigh, is it necessary to hold a grudge like this?
"Butler Fox? That's an honor. οΌ
Hearing the laughing voice of Vance, Navis glanced up and then refocused his gaze on Ronald.
"Marquis Karl, while modesty is a good thing, it's too much, isn't it?"
"Hehe, this doesn't bother His Highness." Van Si and Ronald looked at each other, and the invisible battle unfolded unconsciously, "But Your Highness, as the prince of the empire, came all the way to Borgia, I don't think it was just to sign an agreement, right?" β
"Of course, it's just a marriage contract, and it's not worth my visit."
"Yes...... the corners of Fan Si's mouth hooked, and the corner of his eyes looked at Xiao Yueluo, whose face was a little stiff, "Your purpose?" β
"The purpose? If there is such a thing...... Maybe it has something to do with your queen, after all, Borgia is the only one who can attract me. β
"......" Van Si froze, the nobles in the hall froze, and even Venus behind Ronald was taken aback by this sudden turn, but Xiao Yueluo reacted after a short period of distraction, with a less obvious flush on her face.
"......" Is she being confessed?
(β_β)
"Scared?" Ronald asked with a smile as he looked up at the girl on the throne.
"Sort of, indeed."
"You're really ......" Ronald was a little speechless with his honest look, "But the Marquis's words are over, and the ceremony should be able to be carried out now, right?" β
The last sentence was clearly a question of Vance, but Ronald never took his eyes off the girl.
"Of course." Almost gritted his teeth and spit out these two words, although he was a little depressed, but Vance also knew that it was not suitable to continue to make trouble, so that some people saw the joke in vain, and there was one thing that had to be admitted, that is: whether it was from the investigation of the data, or from the perspective of this meeting, the people in front of him were very good, even if they wanted to compare with him, they were not bad.
