Chapter 61: The Wave Queen's Invitation
No one dared to answer, the power of the "Queen of Waves" was terrifying, but no one was willing to offend the Robeck family for no reason.
"Eva, you're going to read it to everyone!"
The "Queen of the Waves" glanced at the manuscript, and the font of the manuscript was very beautiful, neat and elegant, and there was a sense of smoothness in the flow of water, which made her slightly look forward to the copyist of the manuscript.
A young lady who was named by Josephine himself had to stand up, take the manuscript, and distinguish it carefully before saying: "It seems that the general invisible ink is used, and the contents can be seen by rubbing it with the No. 6 potion." ”
Carl's letter to Miss Heidi was not intended to be in a particularly complex cipher, so it was quickly cracked. In this way, without his knowledge, the story of "The Daughter of the Sea", which he wrote to Miss Heidi, was read in plain sight.
"In the distance of the sea, the water is so blue, like the most beautiful cornflower petals, and at the same time so clear, like the brightest glass. And yet it's so deep that no anchor chain can reach it. In order to get from the bottom of the sea to the surface of the water, there must be many church spires, one after the other. The people at the bottom of the sea live down here......"
For a while, in the silent lounge, there was only a gentle and pleasant voice, reading the story of "The Daughter of the Sea" softly.
The beautiful underwater scenery and beautiful stories are like a clear stream in the depths of the mountain stream, flowing in the lounge.
At first, many young ladies were still a little worried, worried that they would accidentally get involved in the whirlpool of the struggle between the mermaid family and the wave trident family.
But as the story is told, the beautiful, magnificent, and tranquil picture of underwater life unfolds, so that all the listeners are immersed in the story at once, forgetting the sorrow of reality.
The true depths of the sea are mysterious and unknown places that are often impossible for people to reach. However, this story of "The Daughter of the Sea" describes an underwater world full of tranquility, joy, and prosperity with magnificent imagination, leading the audience to travel in a magnificent world of incomparable wonders.
However, due to time constraints, Karl did not finish the story in his letters. So, when Miss Eva reads that the Little Mermaid is in love with the prince, and that she will give up her fishtail and trade her most beautiful singing voice with a witch in exchange for a search for her beloved prince on land, the whole story comes to an abrupt end.
"What about down there?
The story was just fascinating, but it was suddenly interrupted, this kind of situation that seems to have just scratched the itch of a person, but suddenly let go, is really unbearable.
So much so that many young ladies forgot that Miss Josephine was still present, and they couldn't help but urge.
"Miss Eva, go on, don't stop!"
"Hurry up and read down, don't break it at a critical moment!"
"Hurry up and read it, soon the little mermaid will want to meet the prince, don't hang people's appetites!"
Listening to the urging of many young ladies full of resentment, Miss Eva couldn't help but smile bitterly, spread out the page, showed the blank space behind to everyone, and said, "Below, there is no more below." ”
"The author has only written here, followed by a love poem to Miss Heidi!"
"What, such a bad author, such a good story, but only half of it is written at a time, I don't know if I hear half of the story, and I do it halfway through that thing, is it the most uncomfortable to not go up or down?"
"I hate it, I hate such an author the most, and I deliberately write it halfway to hang people's appetites!"
"Oh, it's so uncomfortable, I really want to know the story behind it, can the little mermaid find the prince, can she be happy with the prince......"
"Damn, the current authors have learned to hang people's appetites out of context like this! Last time, a guy named Levi wrote a pamphlet about the Emperor of the Gulosta Empire, and he was only half-written, and it was broken at a critical moment. ”
"Hee-hee, it's "The Erotic History of the Gulosta Empire", I didn't expect you to watch this too......"
"The History of the Romance of the Ancient Fortress Empire, that book is really well written, although most of the plots are vulgar, but the love between the magic emperor and the experimental slave, from whipping, toying, to the final sinking...... It's a pity that this book is also halfway through the writing and then gone......"
"yes, yes, I'd like to see the haughty Magic Empress react when she finally finds out that she's in love with a personal item of her own......"
"Yes, yes, it's disgusting. I really want to arrest them, beat them, hang them up and lock them in a small dark room, and don't finish writing a story or give them food. ”
"I think it's doable, Wendini, your father is a judge of the circuit court, and your brother is in charge of the prison, so why don't you ask your father and brother for help, and we'll find an excuse to lock up these hateful authors......"
"This is a very good idea, we can arrest all these authors who deliberately hang people's appetites, and the crime is to deliberately break the context and mentally play with and torture the reader's mind, which is as evil as the devil's playing with the soul, and must be severely punished!"
"Hee-hee, we can also learn from Her Majesty the Empress in "The History of Romance in the Magic Empire", and use leather whips and candles to train these hateful guys......"
"Agreed!"
"Seconded!"
......
The two women together are five hundred ducks, so many noble ladies, once they are aroused in the conversation, the atmosphere in the whole lounge suddenly becomes extremely lively.
"Queen of the Waves" Josephine did not stop this enthusiasm, because "The Daughter of the Sea" had already managed to arouse her interest.
She turned her head slightly and asked a quiet girl sitting next to her, "Michelle, what do you think of this story?"
"The beautiful rhetoric, the delicate story, the romantic, the exquisite, the elegance is incomparable, it is one of the best love stories I have ever heard, and perhaps tomorrow, when it spreads, it will be one of the most classic love stories in the world. ”
The girl named Michelle gave a very high evaluation, which piqued Josephine's interest in the author of the story.
"It seems that this is a very good author, how is his poetry written?"
"Compared to his rhetoric, it's a little inferior, but it's okay, at least above the average level!"
Josephine trusted the girl's literary appreciation, just as she was confident that the Wave Knight of the Wave Trident could easily defeat the mermaid family's motley knight.
"The Waves Trident family needs not only powerful warriors who split waves, but also scholars with quills! Poets and playwrights may not give us direct power, but they can create great prestige for us!"
Josephine stroked her palm lightly and said lightly: "Find out who the author of this story is, and send him an invitation to next month's ball." Tell him that not only does the mermaid family have beautiful daughters, but our Waves Trident family also has beautiful girls from the blue waves. 'Daughter of the Sea', only the bloodline of the Sea Emperor who is in charge of thousands of waves is qualified to be crowned with this title. ”
