Chapter 144: The Evil Empress (4)

After all, they are also the ones who have fought against the "Peerless Sword Queen".

Twelve was unaware of the discussions of the people around him, and Zhao Jiaqi, who was sitting in the high stands, was so angry that he almost crushed a mouthful of silver teeth.

But when he was angry, Zhao Jiaqi still didn't say a word: "Hehe, the imperial concubine is really amazing, it opened my eyes." Mrs. Castilli on the side heard it and immediately began to follow: "Yes, Her Royal Highness the Queen, Her Royal Highness the Queen's swordsmanship is really a must." ”

As soon as Madame Castilli's words fell, Zhao Jiaqi's face turned cold at a speed visible to the naked eye, and Duchess Hanweno immediately pulled her away from Zhao Jiaqi.

"Your Majesty, since Her Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine has won the victory, then she has won this duel, and the title and concubine title are still reserved for her." Mrs. Hanweno said this in a complete gesture of goodwill to Twelve.

After all, it was her husband who asked Kyle to abolish the position of the Twelfth Princess and Duke before, and now it is clear that they will not fall, so why bother to offend, it is better to mention it in passing, so as to sell the Campbell family a face.

It's a pity that Twelve is a grudge.

"What, has Duke Hanweno changed his mind? Mrs. Hanwenow, do you know that your husband is doing this? ”

The Duke was not present today because of his official duties, and Mrs. Hanwenow's face turned blue and red for a while when she heard this, and she did not speak again.

Instead, Zhao Jiaqi's eyes fluttered and he said: "Mrs. Hanweino is just a good heart, I am afraid that the misunderstanding between you and the Duke will deepen between the imperial concubine, why are you so aggressive?" ”

Twelve naturally wouldn't let her be this good person: "Duke Hanweno is a duke, am I not?" When will it be her turn to have a lady to dictate to me, a lady? And who are the real transgressors? Her Royal Highness the Queen said this, aren't you afraid of being poked in the backbone and say that you have a double standard? ”

"You!" Now, it was Zhao Jiaqi's turn to look bad.

"Okay, since the princess has won this duel, then keep all your glory, remember, keep your duty, and don't do these things in the future, I remind you!" Kyle went down to support Zhao Jiaqi again.

The current twelve couldn't afford to provoke him, so he just silently clenched his fists: "Yes, Your Majesty." ”

After returning from the gladiatorial arena to her dormitory, the first thing Twelve did was to retreat, and even Victoria was taken away by her, and after making sure that no one was around, she took the sword of the Campbell family that she had brought from home in her hand again.

The reason why Twelve felt that the saber in his hand was wrong in the duel was because when he was halfway through the fight with John, the hilt of the sword slipped open, and the original overall sword body seemed to be split into two halves, and Twelve used all his strength to keep the saber in its original state.

She had no doubt that if she continued to fight, the sword in her hand would split in half and fall to the ground.

But when she finished the battle and put the sword back into its scabbard, the sword body was intact again, as if it had just been the illusion of twelve.

Twelve carefully studied the shiny blade without seeing any gaps, then looked at the hilt of the sword, left and right.

Hongmeng saw that the twelve pairs of swords had been studying for a long time, and finally realized that something was wrong: "The host is big, you have been staring at this sword for more than half an hour, is there something wrong?" ”

Twelve frowned and replied, "I felt something was wrong when I duel with the Knights just now, and I always felt that this sword was going to split in two and fall out of my hand. ”

"Is it so amazing? There must be a mechanism on the body with the sword, let me take a look! Hongmeng enthusiastically stepped forward and squeezed through Twelve, sat down on the table and began to study.

Twelve reluctantly stepped aside: "I didn't find anything, what can you see?" I've seen it all there. ”

Hongmeng studied for a while and found nothing, scratching his bird's head with his wings, and suddenly, he said with a flash of inspiration: "The host is big, you can hold the sword in your hand and try a few sword flowers!" ”

Twelve didn't hold out any hope at all, but did so, and just as she turned her wrist, the strange feeling came up again, and she hurriedly looked at the sword, and sure enough, a faint crack appeared on the sword, as if a small sword of the same style had been pulled out of this sword.

She grabbed the hilt of the little sword in surprise, and with a slight force, the little sword slipped off the saber.

Twelve picked up the miniature sword and looked at it carefully, it was not so much a small sword as a dagger, and the ruby that was originally in the middle of the hilt was now in the center of this dagger.

"It seems that this sword is indeed strange, but why is such a magical sword hanging on the wall and no one cares about it?" Twelve muttered to himself.

No one could give her an answer, and it was all hidden in the fog.

Twelve put away his sword and hung it back on the wall, deciding not to tell anyone about it yet.

In the city, the wonderful duel between the imperial concubine and the Knights of the Guards quickly spread throughout the capital.

Almost on the same day, everyone knew the story of the Twelve Imperial Princesses' heroic defeat of the Knights of the Guards.

What's more, storytellers on the streets and alleys have compiled this passage into a new story to sing.

For a time, the image of the heroine of the twelve imperial concubines became more and more profound in people's hearts, as long as she was mentioned, the people would say that the imperial concubine was good, noble, well-behaved, and outstanding, not only that, but also regarded Princess Victoria without a mother as her own, and it was a model of kindness and fraternity.

How can such an all-powerful imperial concubine not be loved by the people, and the limelight of the twelfth seems to overshadow the queen Zhao Jiaqi, who is just pretending.

This was especially evident at a later palace banquet.

When good news came from the frontier, Kyle held a celebration banquet in the palace to reward the returning soldiers.

At this celebration banquet, Zhao Jiaqi was determined to get back the pomp, trampled the twelve under his feet, and found a tailor to re-order a luxurious dress.

"Is it pretty?" Zhao Jiaqi felt sorry for himself in the mirror.

The tailor on the side praised again and again: "Good-looking, Your Highness is really beautiful, your black hair and black eyes with this glittering golden dress make you even more holy and dazzling!" ”

Zhao Jiaqi nodded with satisfaction, took out a piece of gold coin from the delicate box on the side, put it in the tailor's hand, and said: "I know that you have many children in your family and it is difficult to eat, so these are my intentions to buy snacks for the children." ”

The tailor immediately knelt down with tears in his eyes.

As everyone knows, it is true that this tailor's family has a group of children, but he also has three wives and four concubines, and he is lavish, and there is no shortage of money.

After making a gorgeous dress, Zhao Jiaqi asked the maid to braid her hair, and her hair was dotted with flowers woven with gold threads and diamonds, and then she wore her own crown, which made her even more dazzling.
