Volume 5 Days in the Sun One Hundred and Eighty-One, The Prince in Recovery
I don't know if it was because Minna's magic was effective, or because of the patient's active cooperation, or because of the excellent medical skills of the court physician sent by the king from Ito, Prince Heyat's injuries gradually improved, and soon he could go downstairs to the small garden downstairs on crutches without anyone's support
The old court physician was moved to tears, and grabbed the eldest prince's hand and kept expressing his previous and present pleasures, and Hayt smiled and comforted a few words, and then gave a look to the guard, and asked the other party to help the old man to rest
Minna pursed her lips and walked up to Hayt with a smile and handed him a cup of tonic: "This is something to replenish physical strength, I changed the formula according to your physical condition, the taste will be better, you can try it"
After Hayt thanked him, he took the cup and drank it, reminisced about it, and nodded: "It's a bit like orange juice, it's really much better."
"Because you've been very obedient lately, I'll find a way to make you suffer less," Minna smiled and withdrew her cup, "Look, it's good now, your injuries will heal in a few days, I promise that you won't even leave a trace of scarring, and when the time comes, I'll make you a few doses of physique-enhancing magic leaves, the kind that can prevent poison, and you won't be afraid of any poison in the future."
Hayt was stunned, and the joy in his eyes came out little by little: "Is what you said true?" Is there really such a thing?! Is it a difficult match? Does my father have he? He grabbed Minna's wrist with some excitement, and Minna frowned: "Although it is difficult to match, as long as there are materials and formulas, it is still not a problem, but I don't know if His Majesty knows it,... Should know, right? The Security Department could get this "She hated the feeling of being caught, as if she couldn't move freely, and pulled her hand back."
Only then did Hayt realize his gaffe and apologize to her: "I'm sorry, I'm just a little surprised, I didn't expect this kind of groom to exist, you know, poison is the most feared thing for all royal family members in the world"
Minna accepted his apology, she knew in her heart that there were countless royal family members who died of poisoning in the countries of the mainland, and most of the people who died of so-called "sudden illness" were poisoned by some unknown poison, and the number of people who were poisoned was almost quadrupled compared to the second cause of death in the royal family, "falling from a horse", so for a prince, especially the first heir to the throne, how precious it is to avoid poisoning
In fact, this kind of herb is the exclusive secret recipe of Teacher Sauron, and it is not surprising that outsiders don't know about it, it is said that only a few people have taken this kind of herb, including the king of Nuojia and Shaonan, the exiled prince of Weisha and the new archbishop of Van A, as for whether the king's family in East's own country knows, Minna doesn't know, but the security department has cooperated with Sauron for many years, so he should ask for a copy for the king, right?
So she said: "If the king wants this kind of magic weapon, he will naturally turn to the demon master for help, you can ask and you will know, now you have to do the ground is to take care of your body first, so that you can bear the power, otherwise the effect will be affected."
Hayt smiled and nodded: "Okay, I'm completely at your disposal, Miss Minna" He spread his hands and enjoyed the warm sun: "You told me to spend more time in the sun yesterday, don't be bored in the room I'll come out now, what are you going to do next?" ā
Minna was a little amused: "I'm sure the court physician will give you good advice, although he is always crying and annoying, but he has a lot of experience, you just have to do what he says"
Hayt sighed and hung his head pitifully: "Okay, I'll be obedient"
Minna couldn't help but laugh again: "Is it really that reluctant?" Your Highness, look at your current situation, think about it again, ten days ago, honestly, if you had obediently followed the doctor's instructions then, maybe you would have been better now, in fact, what is there to be frustrated? If you are reluctant to part with Beryl and recover sooner, won't you be able to see her when you return to Ito? ā
Hayt smiled wryly: "I'm not... I'm sorry for this..."
"What's that? Aren't you in a bad mood because Beryl is away and not by your side? ā
Hayt smiled: "Yes, but... I didn't mean that, Iā" After a pause, there was silence
Minna was confused, and since she was sad for Beryl's departure, how could she not mean this? Alex has long analyzed it
Thinking of this friend, she suddenly caught a glimpse of his lichen corner flashing at the entrance of the small garden, and immediately remembered that it was time to meet normally, and hurriedly picked up the tray to say goodbye to Heyt, but saw him staring at the entrance suspiciously: "I seemed to see someone waving to you there just now..."
Minna remembered what Alex had said, and hurriedly said: "That's a magician friend of mine, probably coming to my place, I'll come when I go" As soon as she turned around, she heard a loud roar not far away: "Aren't you the son of the Mandheling family?" What are you doing here?! ā
Minna frowned slightly, she didn't expect Alec to be discovered by Hebby, and then she saw Hebby pull Alex in, the latter pursed her lips tightly, Minna, who was familiar with him, knew that he must be angry
Hyatt put away the smile on his face, his expression became serious, and he glanced at Minna quickly
Herbie tugged at Alex's sleeve and said to Hayat, "Your Highness, this guy is sneaking around outside the garden, I don't know what I want to do!" I know him, he's the youngest son of the Mandheling family! It must be ill-intentioned! ā
Before Alex could defend himself, Mr. Minna was angry: "Let him go!" He's my friend! It's not a bad person! ā
Herbie was taken aback: "What did you say?!" Miss Minna, how could you be friends with such a person?! He's the son of the Mandheling family! ā
"I don't care which family he is!" Minna rushed up and pulled Alex's hand away, "I knew him first before I knew his last name!" All I know is that he's a trusted friend, nothing else! You must not be so rude! If it weren't for his help, it wouldn't be so easy to collect all the materials for your Highness! He doesn't want to tell you about it, but that doesn't mean you can slander him at will! ā
Hebby was stunned: "This... This... How is this possible?! "Viscount Mandheling, who has always been on the side of Queen Lorna and the second prince, how can his son help the eldest prince? Don't... Is there something wrong with those magic materials?!
As soon as he turned the thought around, Minna guessed his mind from his gaze and anger rose up: "Don't taint my ears with your dirty thoughts! Look at the current appearance of your Highness, think about what he is like, and then talk about whether my herb is poisonous! ā
Hayt hurriedly scolded Herbie: "Don't talk nonsense, thanks to Miss Minna, I can recover so well" He turned to Alex, his expression was a little complicated: "I recognize you... Speaking of which, you and I are cousins too, but... We never seem to have talked face-to-face like this."
Alex was very cold: "Don't dare to climb high, I'm just a very ordinary noble child, given that there are at least twenty or thirty families in the country that have married to the royal family, any person in Ito may be your distant cousin, but my cheeks are not thick enough, I dare not claim to have any relationship with you in front of your honorable people"
Hebby, who had already avoided the side, glared at him again when he heard this: "What do you mean by this?!" What a rude guy! ā
"It's you who is rude!" Minna stepped in front of her friend and glared back for him, "Your Highness hasn't spoken yet, what are you doing here arguing?!" ā
Hebby wilted, but still muttered a little unconvinced: "It's obvious that he has a bad attitude..."
A smile flashed at the corner of Alex's mouth, and he patted Minna on the shoulder: "I'm fine, thank you" He turned to Heyt and said lightly: "No matter what attitude my father and brother have towards you, I am me, you are the heir to the throne, and your safety is related to the stability and peace of this country, which is too precious, so I will help, but that's all, I came to Minna to disturb your daylight Yuan I am sorry for your please continue, I will retire" After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave
"Wait!" Hesitant asked, "Would you like... Can you have a chat with me? ā
Alex raised an eyebrow: "Chat?" You mean me? ā
"Yes, no matter what you think, we are indeed cousins," Hayt smiled bitterly, "for the sake of my great-grandparents, will you stay with me for a while?" I... I want someone to talk to."
He was referring to the royal princess who married into the Mandheling family more than a hundred years ago, but Alex had never seen her at all, but a trace of longing in Heat's eyes touched him a little, and he suddenly remembered that this prince was recuperating in the lord's mansion, and it seemed that there was a lack of communication with him every day, except for a few guards, that is, doctors, the servants were trembling and did not dare to say anything to him, and Anlong and Dora, except for greeting him once a day in the morning and evening, basically did not talk to him much, even Minna, It's just a few words when I send it over
Is he lonely?
Alex hesitated for a moment, then agreed: "My pleasure, Your Highness"
Hayat's face flashed with joy, and he hurriedly invited him to sit on the rattan chair next to him: "Do you want to add a cushion?" What would you like to drink? I only have hot milk tea here, how about a little cake? The royal chef just made a few plates and it was fresh"
Herbie felt the urge to faint: "My Highness, what are you talking about?" This person... This man, he..."
Alex didn't seem to hear his words, nor did he see his trembling fingers pointing at him, he took a sip of the milk tea poured by Heyt himself very elegantly and calmly, and nodded to the latter with a smile: "It tastes good, I have always thought that the fresh milk produced by Maiton and the top black tea from the Meiat Plains are the supreme delicacy in the world If you don't mind, I want to make a blueberry cake with my own hands from Lady Winnie of the Lord's Mansion, if you miss such a delicacy, you will definitely regret it for the rest of your life"
Hayt was a little surprised: "Really?!" Then I really want to taste it" Hebby listened, his body shook involuntarily, Minna held him, and the two of them who were talking about refreshments smiled: "You talk slowly, I'll go to Winnie, let her make you a cake and leave it to Hebby, I just have something to tell him about His Highness's rehabilitation training" After that, he grabbed the person and walked out, entered the house, and then motioned for another guard to go in and listen to the instructions
She went around the kitchen before dragging Herbie into the studio, who had already come to his senses, trying to break free from her grasp, his face flushed red, as soon as Minna let go, he immediately took three steps back and swallowed: "Miss Minna, you... What do you want to do? ā
What did he think she was going to do to him?
Minna resisted the urge to roll her eyes and threw him a pamphlet: "Didn't I say that?" It's about His Highness's rehab training! Although his foot injury is almost healed now, after all, his bones have been greatly damaged, and if he is an ordinary person, it doesn't matter if he is a little lame when walking, but he is different! So, in order for him to fully return to his previous form, you must supervise his training according to the instructions in this booklet! This time, he is no longer allowed to tolerate his willfulness, this is a matter that will affect him for the rest of his life! ā
Herbie immediately became serious and flipped through the booklet: "This is..."
"It was written by the Security Service with the cooperation of a number of experienced doctors, and it is probably only circulated among high-ranking officers in the army, and it is rarely passed on to you, if you lose it, I don't have a second copy," Minna straightened up and solemnly admonished Herbie, "Don't always dwell on Alex's affairs, he knew that the two Highnesses were injured from the day you came, and he told me not to tell you that he was also there, but he contributed his collection of magic materials for free, because I was missing two materials, He also went to a far away place to buy it, if he wants to harm you, you just need to do nothing, even if you care about his family, don't think of him as a bad person."
Herbie was skeptical but lowered his head: "Yes, I see" He stared at the pamphlet in his hand, thinking to himself that as long as the little Mandheling did not make suspicious movements, he would not bother to pay attention, he had more important things to do
But he was still with Heyat, and Minna scolded angrily: "Don't think that except for you, no one can protect Your Highness!" After scolding, she drove him back, anyway, she has confidence in Alex, if she really wants to be tough, how can Herbie be Alex's opponent?
Flipping through the translation of the magic book alone for a while, Minna put it down a little deflated without Alex here, a lot of the content in the book can't be understood, even if it is translated into a modern language, some allusions and customary titles, all of which she doesn't understand, it's better to let Alex have a few reference books, she can't keep him by her side, and act as a translator and human dictionary for her every day, right?
After stretching a few lazinesses, she walked out of the studio and into the antechamber, just in time to see Winnie happily walking down the corridor outside the window to the kitchen, and told the maid beside her that His Royal Highness liked her to make floor cakes, and that she was going to keep the recipe as a family heirloom, but it was all thanks to Master Alex's, so she would give him one as a May Day gift
Minna laughed as she listened, it seems that Alec had a good chat with His Royal Highness the Eldest Prince, do you want to join in one?
She was thinking about it, but she caught a glimpse of two men hurrying into the antechamber, one of them was a guard next to Heyat, the other was a stranger, she frowned, stopped them, and asked the guard, "Who is this man?" Where are you going? ā
The guard hurriedly saluted her: "Miss Viscount, this is the deputy captain of His Highness's Guard, who has just arrived from Ito" The strange young man bowed to her decently: "Hello, Miss, I'm Gandinan. Chulov, the deputy captain of the guards of His Highness, was ordered to come and greet His Highness"
"Chulov?" Minna raised an eyebrow, "What's your relationship with Mr. Goodwin?" Did Your Majesty let you come? ā
"Mr. Goodwin is my cousin," Gandinan smiled, "I'm just a son of Chulov's family," and the guard next to him interjected, "I'm sorry, Miss Minna, he has something urgent to report to His Highness, can you let us see Your Highness first?" ā
Minna hurriedly gave way for them to go first, but as soon as she turned around, she couldn't help but wonder: Didn't the king's envoy come yesterday? For nearly a month, the king sent people in three days, sending doctors, servants, clothes, supplements, food, books, and even a box of toys to relieve boredom, and by the way, he also brought condolences from others, including those from Heyat's uncle's house and his subordinates, and several carts full of people and goods, but he really had never come alone and empty-handed like this little Chulov, what was the urgency of him?
Did something happen to Ito?
