The scream of the terrible monkey sounded from not far away, attracting the attention of the girl who was located by the pond in the forest garden, and when she looked sideways, two little golden retriever monkeys were fighting each other on a tall elm tree not far away, one of them was pulling the other monkey's tail hard, and the other monkey poked his finger into its nostrils.
The two little ones kept rolling and jumping in the tree, fighting endlessly, accompanied by bursts of screams, and several times they looked like they were about to fall, but they never landed.
They are sometimes even able to use their tails to sway their bodies back and forth, making them very dexterous.
The Zoo of Beasts is such an interesting place, and it seems that I will come back more often in the future. The girl blinked and thought to herself, the depression in her heart was somewhat dispelled.
"Miss Rhaenys, it's time for lunch." A voice beside her whispered, making the girl in a warm yellow dress look away, but after looking at the maid beside her, she just shook her head.
"I didn't eat lunch, I didn't have an appetite."
"But Madame is still waiting for you." The maid said embarrassedly.
"Let's just say I've already eaten it." The girl replied perfunctorily.
"But......" The maid stopped talking, but at last she did not say anything, but nodded, and then hurried away to inform her that the lady had gone.
The girl sighed at this.
It's been more than 10 years, but I'm still not used to it......
Thinking about it, she looked back at the pool in front of her, and there were a few small white fish that looked chubby swimming in the clear spring water, and the girl poked it with her fingers at will, and one of the small fish suddenly swelled into a round ball magnified more than ten times, and the bulging "cheeks" and small eyes and small mouths seemed to be very angry, but it made people feel very funny to look at.
This inflatable fish is really interesting.
The girl couldn't help but smile, but then the depression came back to her mind.
The plan made cannot be said to be foolproof, but it is also very certain, after all, when the assassination target of the Faceless Men of Braavos is basically not missed, even if the other party is the king of another continent, it is difficult to guard against the kind of assassin who changes his identity at will.
However, the news that came back a while ago was like a blow to the head, and she was a little dazed directly-
The three Faceless Ones were caught and hanged by the man named Lan Li!
Or was it discovered before they even started their operation......
It's so distressing.
Why is this happening?
Not only did the girl not understand this, but the sacrifice of the God of Thousand Faces who contacted her also had no clue. But whether they can figure it out or not, it's a fact that the Faceless have suffered a lot.
This alone was already a headache for the girl - the Faceless Order had a deep connection to the Braavos ruling class, but it was not exactly a vassal, or even if it were, it was not something that a Sea King could fully control, let alone the daughter of a Sea King.
At the beginning, she was able to mobilize the Faceless to assassinate the king, on the one hand, the identity convenience was on the one hand, the Faceless People were also looking for a door, and finally, and most importantly, she also took out a very important secret information of the Targaryen family in exchange, in exchange for the implementation of this plan.
And yet, it has failed so completely......
The Black and White House (Faceless Headquarters) had already come to inform them that they would abandon the deal, and at the same time claimed that they would not work with the girl again, which made the girl angry, because those people couldn't complete the task they were supposed to do, and they blamed themselves?
What kind of reasoning is this?
"Sooner or later, I'll have you all in my hands." Squatting on the edge of the pool and constantly poking the fish with her fingers, the girl muttered, but she couldn't help but think of a name in her mind - Lan Li.
The first plan failed on this man's head, and now the second time it was planted in the hands of this guy, which made the girl secretly hate, and she couldn't even sleep at night. It's just that it's obvious that the enemy can't be solved by being angry, and it seems that he only blames himself for not figuring out the enemy's situation?
But she thinks she has figured it out very well, her background, her upbringing, and what she has learned...... She even knew that Lan Li liked to read history—
As a result, the person was still a fog.
More importantly, every time the girl thought of that person's name, she felt familiar, and even inexplicably felt the urge to run over to him.
This impulse came for no reason, and the familiarity made the girl think that she had something wrong with her brain.
In fact, she was now very inclined to feel as if she had some kind of illness, because she felt that she had a lot of weird things in her life.
For example, she likes to raise flowers and garden, but she searched through the memories of her previous life, and she didn't figure out how she liked such boring things, she should like singing and dancing?
At the same time, she still doesn't know how she made up her mind in her previous life to run away from Westeros, mingle in various mysterious circles, and become a faceless one.
Remember, she has always had a good relationship with her family, why did she break up?
And most importantly, she had no memory of how she got out of Dorne.
The history of this world records that she died in Dorne, but she knew she was not dead.
Why didn't he die?
She couldn't remember.
"Maybe this will happen after the body change?" The girl guessed.
Obviously, there is a gap in the memory of the past life, but what is the vacancy? She couldn't figure it out, but she just had a vague feeling that it seemed to be very important to her, very important, and yet......
The sound of hurried footsteps interrupted the girl's thoughts, and after staring intently at the little fish in the pool in front of her, she sighed, then turned her head to follow the footsteps, and found that it was her henchman butler who had come over.
"Is it the red-robed monk who has sent a letter again?"
The girl asked, "Or the bald heads?" ”
"It's a letter from Dorne, Miss Rhaenys." The butler said as he handed the letter to the girl, the sun spear emblem on the envelope clearly revealing that it had been sent by the Martell family, who ruled Dorne.
"It's really strange that Prince Daolang, who has shrunk his head, has taken the initiative to write a letter." The girl pursed her lips when she saw this, and then opened the letter and looked at it, and her face gradually darkened.
"Is there anything bad about it, miss?"
Seeing this, the butler, who had the mark of the wheel on his face, asked cautiously.
"No big deal." The girl replied lightly, but her small hands tore and crushed the letter in her hand, and then slammed it into the pool.
"I'm embarrassed to say indomitable, I think they're a bunch of shrunken turtles!"
After gritting her teeth, the girl stood up and paced back and forth several times, and finally couldn't help but scold, and walked away eagerly.
The neatly dressed butler was dumbfounded.
That's right, Miss Rhaenys, who has always been gentle and polite, just scolded ...... your mother?
