Chapter 146: The Evil Empress (6)
The only thing left is to feed Victoria's Twelve in a low-key manner.
It's embarrassing now, Twelve didn't report to his family, Kyle didn't show too much affection for her, everyone just thought she was Princess Victoria's companion, and didn't associate her with the brave and warlike "Peerless Sword Queen" at all.
The silence in front of the high platform made the officers of the Vettels family a little confused, but when he saw Kyle's face, he didn't dare to ask intuitively, but his intuition told him that he had just spoken abruptly.
Could it be that this girl is the object that he cannot covet? Is it a princess? Orβ
As he guessed, the Wittels' officers' pupils gradually dilated, their hairs stood on end, and sweat slipped down his forehead, a symbol of fear.
The people around were infected by the silence of this moment, and they all stopped talking and looked over to Twelve.
Twelve finally realized that the noisy sounds of his surroundings had disappeared in an instant, and when he looked up, he found a young officer standing straight in front of Kyle with a sweaty face.
Victoria whispered to Twelve, "Mother, this brother just said he wanted to meet you. β
Victoria doesn't understand the relationship between men and women, doesn't she understand it? This "brother" clearly doesn't know who he is, and he has taken a fancy to himself.
Twelve whispered a few words to Victoria, she nodded, pointed to the small roast lamb chops not far away and said loudly to Twelve: "Mother, I want to eat that lamb chops!" β
With a smile in his hand, Twelve took the lamb chops, carefully cut the meat into strips, and placed them on Victoria's plate.
The officer's face looked like it had been bruised for a long time.
Kyle heard Victoria's voice, his face pale.
The people around him began to look at Twelve.
"Is that the Twelfth Imperial Princess, the Duke heir of the Campbell family?"
"It's her, she was dressed so low-key today that I almost didn't recognize it."
"It is said that she also defeated the Knights of the Guards, a pair of twenty-five!"
The eyes of the surrounding officers looking at Twelve suddenly became more eager, after all, masters are rare, and there are not many opportunities to meet masters, and the officers who are military generals want to ask her for advice or two, and they will benefit immensely on the battlefield in the future.
Twelve naturally didn't know what these officers were thinking, and just wanted to relieve the embarrassment in front of him as soon as possible.
Zhao Jiaqi watched from the wall with a good show.
Twelve was the first to break the silence: "Presumably, this officer is also a soldier who has triumphed this time, and it is really hard." β
The officer's face instantly turned red again, and he stammered: "Emperor, Your Royal Highness the Imperial Princess, it is our responsibility and honor to protect our family and defend the country." β
Twelve smiled gently: "I just heard you say that you haven't married yet?" I think there is no shortage of suitors for someone as good as you, and I will introduce you to a few good girls from the Campbell family with the Countess of Wittels. β
That's what I say, but it's hard to say when to introduce it, what kind of introduction, and whether there is a suitable one.
But the young officer was still excited: "Thank you, Your Highness, Your Majesty, I will bring back the Vettels family for your simplicity and kindness." β
After speaking, he gave a military salute.
Kyle's face finally stopped looking so ugly.
Zhao Jiaqi's face was incredulous, this was actually carried by her light and clever stroke.
With full of unwillingness, Zhao Jiaqi said to Kyle beside him: "Who is the girl that the officer said he wanted to know just now?" β
Twelve rolled his eyes, said in his heart, and asked knowingly.
Kyle looked at Zhao Jiaqi gently: "I didn't say anyone, today is the first time you have attended the celebration banquet, and you went to toast them on behalf of the Robert royal family." β
Obviously, he didn't want to bring it up.
Zhao Jiaqi didn't say anything more, picked up the wine glass, glanced at Twelve contemptuously, and went to the small stage with a gorgeous skirt and began to toast.
Twelve obviously didn't take her Ming Dynasty sarcasm to heart, and after experiencing the little turmoil just now, she wanted to leave early after she was full of food and drink.
Glancing at Kyle, who was communicating with the officers, and Zhao Jiaqi was also chatting with the noble ladies on the other side, Twelve took Victoria's hand and quietly withdrew from the palace banquet.
Zhao Jiaqi was chatting with the Duchess of Hanweno about his clothes.
"Your Highness, your clothes are truly beautiful." She admired.
Zhao Jiaqi waved his hand and said: "I see that tailor is pitiful, give him more work to do, I didn't expect him to make me such a gorgeous dress, to be honest, I'm still a little unaccustomed to it." β
The noble ladies in the court have always been used to flattery, so they naturally pick up everything and say it, but the wives of officers and generals are different, they have straightforward personalities and are not afraid of offending people.
Countess Wittels, who had just received the Twelve Promises and introduced her youngest son, looked at Zhao Jiaqi's dress and said: "Good looking is good-looking, but it is too dazzling, so that people can't see His Highness's true face clearly." β
This doesn't seem to be a problem, but if you think about it, you will feel that this is mocking Zhao Jiaqi for being ugly and using a dress to fill in the flaws.
Zhao Jiaqi's face was almost crooked, but this Mrs. Wittels didn't forget to make up for it: "If you want to say, Qing Shui is out of Hibiscus, and a really good-looking woman should be like Her Royal Highness the Imperial Princess, heroic and unpretentious, she is really a heroine among women." β
This boast made Zhao Jiaqi completely collapse, and he was unwilling to do the faΓ§ade work, so he put down the wine glass and left directly.
The Duchess of Hanweno glanced at Mrs. Vettels with hatred: "As long as you have a lot of mouths, can't you say less if you can't speak?" Then he chased after the queen, chasing and shouting behind him: "Your Highness! Your Highness, she doesn't have a heart! β
Mrs. Wittels ate dessert elegantly, looked at the back of the crowd leaving, and sneered: "I'm not wrong, I'm not married, what are you doing dressed like that, for fear that others won't know that you are the queen?" β
Kyle, who was discussing the attack of the Cass Empire with the officers here, noticed Zhao Jiaqi's movement and hurriedly chased him out.
In a hurry, Kyle finally caught up with his queen in the Imperial Garden.
Zhao Jiaqi was crying in the white rose bush at this time.
Kyle stepped forward, pulled her up on the ground, and comforted her softly: "My love, don't cry, my heart will break when I cry." β
Zhao Jiaqi sobbed and cried endlessly.
Kyle asked, "Did anyone be rude to you?" Tell me, I'm going to punish her. β
She raised her head, her nose was red, and she said angrily: "It's not that I haven't been punished, but what's the use?" β
"Isn't it twelve? Did she provoke you again? β
"It's not her, it's those noble ladies who say that I don't have as much taste in clothes as the Twelve Imperial Princesses, and I don't look as good as her." Zhao Jiaqi's words were sour.
Kyle laughed and hugged her, "You don't have to care what those people think, you just need to know that in my heart, you are the most beautiful, and that's enough." β
