464 Celebrations
The night was late.
Until ten o'clock. Fang Xiaobao returned, with a hint of tiredness on his face and excitement that could not be concealed.
"Ah Hui! Kelly! ”
He whispered to the door, his right hand in his pocket, as if holding something.
"I've been waiting for you to eat late for a long time, why did you come back!"
The door opens. Minghui's face was full of disgust. Fang Xiaobao took out a necklace from his pocket, smiled and said, "The gift for you is for it, tossing until now!" ”
The necklace is beautiful, made of platinum, with a pendant set with a pebble-sized sapphire that glows in the moonlight.
"This ...... Did you make it yourself? Minghui looked at the necklace, and then at Fang Xiaobao's face stained with black and ash, with a somewhat strange expression.
"I know you like it, I deliberately didn't buy it during the day, and I learned to do it now...... Only the necklace I made with my own hands is worthy of you! Fang Xiaobao laughed. At the same time, he moved softly and put on the gift that he had carefully prepared for the girl.
"Is it pretty?" He asked. Although the workmanship of this necklace is still flawed, I believe that the other party will definitely like it.
"Beautiful!" Minghui nodded. Looking at him, his big watery eyes revealed many indescribable complex emotions.
"Touched!"
"Hmm."
Fang Xiaobao's face was proud, "Brother doesn't need to return the gift, so let's do it, Ah Hui, you can have a supper with me, even if it is compensated." ”
In his heart, he thought that the other party would definitely not refuse. However, Minghui shook her head: "I'm tired and want to sleep, I'll make breakfast tomorrow...... Make a lot of goodies to compensate you. ”
Before Fang Xiaobao could react, the girl had already closed the door.
"uh~~~"
Fang Xiaobao touched his nose. It backfired, and the development of the plot deviated from the imagination.
Maybe Ah Hui is really tired!
He comforted himself, shook his head, and turned away with some disappointment.
The chest heaved and he breathed heavily. Minghui leaned against the door, her face constantly changing, sometimes violent and ferocious, sometimes confused and tangled.
A faint purple light emerged from the center of her eyebrows. There is also a 'buzz' whisper...... Only she could hear the sound of a human voice.
"Noise! Shut your mouth! ”
Minghui screamed loudly. There was no gentleness just now, and his face was extremely vicious.
"Who are you? Why should you care about me? If I hadn't seen that you were still of some use, I would have destroyed you! ”
"Loved ones? Hahaha...... I have no family, no friends, no love...... Only hate! ”
Minghui's pretty face was full of madness, and she slapped her forehead with her backhand, and the purple light that appeared in the center of her eyebrows disappeared in an instant. Her emotions began to slowly recover, her eyes were gloomy and terrifying, and she said to herself, "I swore when I was eight years old that whoever dared to offend me...... There is only one end, death! ”
"He has ruined my inheritance and must be punished...... Don't try to stop anyone! ”
The tone was cold and unmistakable. But when she looked down at the necklace hanging around her neck, her eyes couldn't help but show a faint confusion.
…………………………
Tulip Boulevard. Located to the east of the palace, the Rhine River flows, the roads are paved with flowers, and there are crowds of onlookers.
The fifteenth anniversary of the reign of Empress Troy VII was celebrated here.
Leaning on the side of the avenue, the fence is high, and the six-story bell tower is atopped. At this moment, envoys from various principalities, as well as lords of overseas territories, came to pay respects to Her Majesty the Empress with rich congratulatory gifts.
"Archduke Alec of the Principality of Montenegro to-"
"Ten pounds of silver essence, fifty colored diamonds, to the most respected Her Majesty the Empress!"
"Lord Garop of the Tars Collar congratulates Her Majesty the Empress, and presents 100 luminous fluorites and 10 Qi Nan beasts ......"
The Empress of Troy sat on her throne, wearing a golden crown and smiling, looking at a vassal who had come to her audience. She ascended the throne at the age of twenty-six, ruled the great Sass Empire for fifteen years, and now she is in the middle of the year, but she is very well maintained. With blonde hair and a shawl, she has a beautiful face, and if it weren't for the slight vicissitudes of life at the corners of her eyes, she would look like a beautiful woman of twenty-seven or eighteen.
"Qi Nan beast is clean by nature, with its own body fragrance, and it is a rare beast with a pleasant fragrance!"
She looked at the middle-aged man and said with a smile, "Lord Garup, you are a gift...... I love it! ”
Known as Gallop, he is a minor lord in the northern borders of the Sass Empire. This time, in order to raise a congratulatory gift, it took a lot of effort. At this moment, she was appreciated by Her Majesty the Empress, and he was overwhelmed by his joy, and shouted: "Long live the Empress!" Long live the Empress! ”
"Gallop, vulgar fellow, you're in luck!"
"Do you think he will be blessed by Her Majesty?"
A group of grand dukes and important ministers sitting on both sides whispered to each other, and one by one they cast envious glances at Gallop. According to the customs of the Sass Empire, the empress's enthronement ceremony, the congratulatory gifts of the ministers, the one who is most pleasing to Her Majesty's Majesty, will be praised and blessed.
There is no practical benefit, but it is the supreme honor. Therefore, five years of small celebration, ten years of big congratulations. The principalities and lords of the empire will dig out their hearts to raise rare treasures as congratulatory gifts.
As the supreme ruler of the Empire, it is not surprising that the Empress of Troy was accustomed to rare treasures. However, this time, the Garup Lord of the Tas Command sword went off the rails and sent ten rare Qi Nan beasts, which won the favor of Her Majesty the Empress.
"It's just a Qi Nan beast, although it's rare, you can buy it if you really put a lot of effort into it!"
On the right-hand side, a handsome young man with blond hair squinted at Lord Gallop and said to his companions: "Don't worry, Her Majesty's blessing, he Gallop has not yet received that honor!" ”
"Oh, how could Prince William be so sure?"
"Do you mean...... Do you have the inside scoop? ”
The companions were curious. Each of them is extremely noble, and at worst, they are also the heirs of the princes.
Prince William took a sip of red wine and said unhurriedly: "There is no insider, I am purely guessing...... Because, the richest man has not yet come, and with his handwriting, the gifts presented are by no means comparable to a few Qi Nan beasts! ”
"Prince William, you mean...... The one in the sea of stars? "There was a trance on the face of the companion.
Prince William nodded: "Who else but him!" ”
It's a discussion here. Many envoys of the Western Duchy had never seen Xinghai's true face, and they were curious and looked forward to it. but he never came.
"The envoys from all countries have arrived, and even the people from the Huaxia Gu clan have come, so they will send the Lord of the Star Sea!"
Behind the Empress of Troy, a young man and a woman stood. Among them, the man had a handsome face, a proud expression, and said in an unhappy tone: "Mother, he is a small lord, and the shelf is big!" ”
Standing on the right hand, the girl in the golden silk dress said with a smile: "Brother can't say that, this Star Sea Lord may have something to delay and miss the hour...... As the host, we should be open-minded and tolerant! ”
The handsome young man was about to refute after hearing this, but was interrupted by the Empress of Troy: "Philip, your sister is right, as a child of the Rhine family, you should have a broad vision, and don't be ...... Missed a big deal! ”
