Chapter 52: Has the roof of the stonemason's house been repaired?
Previous Chapter: Chapter 51 Bathing with YouNext Chapter: Chapter 53 Hearse
The next day, while everyone was having breakfast together, Julian announced his decision to go to the Golden Dragon Sanctuary with Owen and Ray, but Empress Ipea suddenly announced something else that Owen and Ray did not expect: she and the three Fernandez sisters would also go with her. hua., the latest chapter is visited by wèn:.
Julian looked very awkward when he said this, and he seemed reluctant, but he could not refute it, and although the three Fernández sisters did not object on the spot, judging by their surprised expressions at the time, they should not have known beforehand.
It stands to reason that having just recruited two important ministers of the empire for her own use, Ipeiya should stay near the imperial capital and plan to overthrow the two princes and regain the throne, instead of running to the Golden Dragon Sanctuary, which is far away and full of dangers.
In response to this question, Ipeia gave her reason: "Even with the help of the Grand Duke and the general, the power of the concubine is still very small. For this reason, the concubine must find other help. Although the dragon clan will not intervene in the internal struggle of the human race, if the concubine is the only legitimate heir of the first dragon knight Alexander Zhuogen, this identity can be recognized by the Golden Dragon Clan, then it will definitely help the great cause with half the effort, and even avoid a lot of unnecessary bloodshed. ”
I don't know if that's what she really thinks, but it sounds reasonable, at least on the surface.
The only thing that is certain is that there may have been a secret pact between Julian and Ipeia that no one else knew about, or that Ipeia didn't know how to convince Julian.
No one knew what had happened in the basement bathroom the night before.
At that time, Julian was hurriedly dressing in the dark, and when he had just put on his 'pants', the soft and soft 'jade' had already hugged him from behind.
"The 'Female' Empress...... Miss, please, please don't ...... like this" Julian stammered a little.
The crystal pendant of the necklace she wore under her neck stuck her and his two ** together without covering,**, soft, warm, I don't know if it was this repeated action of challenging the bottom line that made him inexplicably nervous, or if Ipeia was strangled too tightly from behind. (hua.)
"The concubine has nothing else to ask for, only one thing, I hope Julian must agree. ”
"Okay, okay, whatever it is, please say it!"
Julian, who was anxious to get rid of Ipeya's entanglement, agreed without even thinking about it, so there was the scene in the dining room just now.
......
The people, who had been busy all day preparing for the departure, did not stop until night, and everyone was tired, so they all went to bed.
Among this group, there is one person who is more special. If the three sisters, Dante and Fernandez, were the retinue of Julian and Ipeya, respectively, and had to go on the road together, then it seems that the "Riverside Man", who has nothing to do with him, should join in the excitement, which is really incomprehensible. Of course, the "riverside people" have their own interpretation. He said that in order to repay Ipeia and Julian for saving their lives, he was willing to accompany them on this journey.
However, if after the successive battles of Fernandez Manor, the underground city and Alexandria, the "Riverman" has not completed the repayment, then where is the limit of this repayment? Moreover, the "Riverman" is a foreigner, and he and so many knights must have other things to do when he came to the Fayale Empire, so it is really puzzling whether he should have completed the original task?
Therefore, as long as you look closely, you will find that the reason given by the "Riverside" himself is actually quite pale, and he may have another purpose for going to the Golden Dragon Sanctuary, of course, no one will question him, because Julian and Ipeia both embarked on this journey with their own purposes.
At this time, the "riverside man" was lying on the 'bed' in his bedroom, covered with a quilt, his eyes closed, and he looked as if he had already fallen asleep. But the breathing sound of ordinary people when they are asleep is even and rhythmic, but at this time, the breathing sound of the "riverside man" seems to be a little heavy, so in fact he is not asleep at all, but just closing his eyes to recuperate.
The door of the room was opened with a "babble", and then a scent poured into the room.
The person outside the 'door' didn't enter the room immediately, she stopped at the 'door' for a moment, as if she was deeply aware of the atmosphere in the room, and felt relieved before moving away from the 'jade' step. The 'door' of the room is gently closed from the inside.
"Three watches in the middle of the night, go straight to the man's bedroom, is this also the tradition of your 'female' son of the Rocard Empire?" The "Riverside Man" lying on the 'bed' did not hide the fact that he had not actually slept, and spoke when Ipeia was halfway through.
"Please forgive the presumptuousness of the concubine. It's just that the concubine has some words, and she really doesn't vomit or be unhappy. At the same time as saying this, Ipeia walked the remaining half of the way, and went straight to the 'bed' of the "riverside man", and sat on the 'bed' half-sideways, "These days are the most difficult times for concubines, and only by being able to benefit from the protection and help of Mr. 'riverside' can they get through." And the concubine, as the mother of a country, failed to repay you, it is really ......"
Ipeia froze in the middle of her words. For something she did not expect: without warning, the "Riverside" held a sharp, cold dagger against her waist. He seems to have been preparing for this for a long time, and still hides a dagger in the quilt while he sleeps.
"What are you doing here?" Mr. 'Riverside', the concubine doesn't understand too well. Although surprised, Ipeia did not show her face, and she tried to maintain a calm and elegant smile.
"Do you really not understand, or do you pretend to understand and be confused? I saw that the eyes of the "riverside people" flashed with unprecedented 'yin' coldness and murderous aura, "I'm sorry, I've always been used to being cautious, that's why I have experienced so many life and death disasters but I didn't die." Please forgive me for having to do this, after all, there are too many lessons from ancient times to the present day about dying because of 'lust'. ”
"Death because of 'lust'?" Ipeia couldn't help but laugh, "Sir, are you thinking too much. ”
"I also hope that I think too much and not you do too much. Empress Explain, what is the matter with the crystal that seals the enchanting magic on your necklace?"
For the second time, the words of the "Riverside" put Ipeia in shock. If she was able to do it with ease before, then the only adjectives suitable for her now are "jaw-dropping" and "stunned".
Seeing Ipeya's expression, the "Riverside Man" knew that the initiative had been transferred to him, so he withdrew the dagger, and then regained his original sunny smile: "Don't judge me and that Julian in advance. Tricks that work on that nerd may not work for me. ”
......
The two lingered in the room for a few minutes, and then Ipeia opened the door and came out.
Her face doesn't look very good, the whole person looks a little 'gloomy', and her eyes are even more faintly 'revealed' with a little resentment and helplessness.
When she happened to have one foot outside the 'door' and the other foot inside the 'door', the "riverside man" in the room actually stopped her: "Please wait. Please help close the window of the room, it is too windy outside. And, by the way, has the roof of the stonemason's house been repaired?"
Hearing the last sentence, Ipeia froze on the spot.
It was the third time she had been amazed in just a few minutes, and the first two times were nothing compared to them.
Ipeia has completely lost the elegance and temperament of the so-called 'empress' of the empire. She turned slowly and asked the "riverside man" in a short and deliberate way, "What!
"Yes, I am. And so are you. ”
"I didn't expect it, it turns out that we are all together. It seems that the discussion between us is not over yet. ”
With that, Ipeia walked into the room again and closed the door from the inside, ending the riddle-like conversation.
But neither of the two parties thought that this "guessing" conversation between them had already been completely witnessed by the third person
