Na found a sofa in the corner of the hall, helped Manda to sit down, and when she saw her, T sat down close to her

Manda was silently in a daze, sometimes her eyes suddenly turned red, and then she covered her mouth to prevent herself from crying, Minna felt that she was not a way to do this, so she kept leading her to talk, so as to make her feel better, and at the same time quietly looking for other Xiao... The people of the Kajia family, if they could come, she would be much more relaxed

At this time, Elon was conversing with the other nobles, and was having a good conversation with the members of the Nogar Mission; Lilith communicates with other ladies about the latest clothing fashions and gossip; After Felder had visited all the decorations in the hall that aroused his interest, he went to Bianca's side, and the beauty was naturally surrounded by admirers, who were lovely and a child, and many people saw that Bianca was close to him, so they praised him openly and secretly, so as to please the beautiful woman, and let the little boy mix like a fish in water

Minna frowned when she saw this, and looked to find Bewen and Beryl, only to see that the latter was talking to several old nobles, looking very respectful, but there was a strong confidence between her eyebrows

What is she doing?

Manda wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes again, and said a little embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, you must be boring, right?" I'm fine, you go dance" Just now, there were also a few aristocratic young people who found out that Minna, a strange beauty, was quite good, and came to invite them to dance, but Minna refused, and Manda thought it was all her fault

Minna smiled and said, "I'm not bored, what's the point of dancing?" I hate the ones who pretend to be tweezers and think they're handsome and put on a show," and she's not in the mood to jump right now

Glancing at Alex, who was still surrounded by four or five young ladies, she pursed her lips and almost didn't snort

Manda was amused by her words, but soon became frustrated again, Minna frowned, "What the hell is going on?" You were fine when you came here just now, why did you suddenly cry like this? ”

Manda bit her lip: "Minna, I'm really useless, right?" Even if she wears dignified clothes and combs her dignified hair, she is still a mediocre little girl, and she can't be noble."

"Noble?" Minna scoffed, "What do you mean by nobility?" If you say it's a family background, aren't you noble? If it's about appearance, it's easier to be noble, as long as you raise your chin, put on a cold face, and then squint at people, and breathe through your nose when you speak, anyone can be noble! ”

Manda couldn't help but laugh out loud: "I don't mean that, I mean like my sister is so smart and confident, and the topics she talks about are always very profound, which makes people feel elegant and extraordinary; And the princess Nogar has a dignified manners, a decent manner, and a kind smile... They're noble, and I... I really don't deserve Selig..."

"Why did you pull up the second prince again?" Minna's eyes widened, "What does this have to do with whether you are noble or not?" As long as you love each other, right? Don't take what others say, don't take it to heart, and the people who make the final decision are not them," he paused, and added: "Besides, your sister, is that also called noble?" It's just that the eyes are on the top of her head, and as for the princess—" she lowered her voice, "it always makes me feel that something is wrong..."

Manda smiled reluctantly: "Don't comfort me, they are a hundred times stronger than me, I thought that as long as Selig and I love each other, we can be together, but I know now that I was wrong, he will soon become the crown prince, and I will be the king in the future, I... I don't have the faith or the ability to be a queen, and in the end he'll leave me—" She began to weep again

Minna was a little annoyed when she heard it: "Why does everyone regard the second prince as a king now?" Do you think that if you marry a woman from another place, you must be a queen? It's ridiculous! I don't think that's going to happen."

"I know you're trying to comfort me, but everybody knows it's true... Not only did the queen and the nobles think so, but even His Majesty the King handed over the work that should have been done by the crown prince to Serrig, and sooner or later something would happen..."

Minna tried to refute it, but opened her mouth and closed it

She had wondered why the king had allowed rumors to spread all over the world, and the eldest prince Heyat, who was obviously only a minor injury, had actually hidden in the palace and disappeared as a prostitute, if they denied it, how could things have developed to this point?

Alex has analyzed that the king is likely to be testing something, to see how many people are on the queen's side, he believes that although His Majesty the king has always been more merciful, he will never condone this kind of behavior that seriously affects the royal power, and the eldest prince, who is healthy and has been educated as the heir to the throne for many years, will not be easily given up, and the second prince, who has always done whatever he wants, and has not formally participated in political affairs, is unlikely to become a competent crown prince after attending or presiding over several important events, so in the end, the queen's faction will only be empty and happy

Minna has always believed in Alex's political analysis skills, so when she saw that Beryl and the Manda sisters were worried about the affairs of the two princes, she didn't say anything, anyway, when the matter was over, they could still be with the person they liked, so why would she divulge such a confidential matter?

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but glance at Alex again, and when she saw that he was also looking over, she showed a wry smile, and was quickly distracted by the words of the other young ladies

Minna clenched her fists, turned her head and asked Manda, "It's not interesting to sit here, why don't you leave early?" You don't want to be seen crying, do you? ”

Manda wiped the corners of her eyes, and sure enough, she caught a glimpse of several noble daughters peeking at her, chuckling and turning her head and ears, her face flushed, how could she be so careless? Now it's a joke in the eyes of others again! She was unfazed by Minna's proposal, but she was still a little hesitant: "But... Isn't it rude to leave now? ”

"Let's go quietly, others will only think that we go out to breathe, anyway, it is the Noga people who host the ball, how can they recognize the faces of each of us? Look at the pile of people who gathered in the hall just now, how many are there now? ”

Manda straightened up: "That... Are we the only ones leaving? The coachman at home must be looking for a place to drink and chat at this time."

"Don't worry, I'll drive!" Minna looked left and right, and quietly got up, "I'm going to drive the car to the gate, now there are fewer people and fewer cars on the street, we can get out soon You will be waiting for me at the door in ten minutes" She took advantage of the curtain to cover it, and gently walked out along the wall, and when she met a waiter or other guests, she pretended to go out to ventilate or look for something, and slipped out of the door very smoothly, and quickly found the carriage of the Kaduo family, and the coachman really drove the car to the gate of the auditorium

After waiting for a while, Manda appeared at the door, accompanied by Bei Wen, and said a little embarrassedly: "When I came out, my brother found out, and he said that he would send us back..."

Bewen glanced at her disapprovingly, and then smiled and said to Minna: "You two girls, you are so bold!" What if something happens on the road? Let's get in the car, I'm going to drive anyway, I'm not too interested in the prom."

Minna stuck out her little tongue, thinking that she wouldn't lose much to you

Still obediently climbed into the car with Manda and gave up the driver's seat to Don

The carriage soon left the auditorium, and drove under the stars in the direction of the Kado, probably not doing such an "out of the ordinary" thing for a long time, Manda's mood was a little excited, but the original depression disappeared a lot, she looked at the street outside the window with interest, and told Minna about the thrilling encounter when she sneaked out: "Originally, I was counting that the time was almost up, and I was about to get up and leave, but suddenly a waiter came, saying that the Duke of Noga had sent him to ask me if I was in a better mood, and sent me a bottle of fine fruit wine, saying that I was invited to drink, I was so nervous that I couldn't speak, so I finally waited for him to leave before I slipped out, and I was caught by my brother."

Minna laughed when she heard it: "Did my cousin scold you?" ”

"Of course he scolded, but now that he's outside, he won't scold too loudly, and when he gets home, he'll probably scold again, right?" Manda raised her hand and wiped her forehead, seeing that one hand was sweaty, she looked left and right, and suddenly exclaimed, "Oh no! I look like I dropped your handkerchief in the venue! It's strange, it's still there when I got up."

Minna smiled and handed over another piece: "It's just a handkerchief, what's the matter?" Actually, Cousin Bewen is too careful, this is Ito City, and we haven't traveled outside, what danger will the two of them encounter when they go home? ”

Bewen's voice came from the small window at the front of the carriage: "I know you've learned Jin, but it's better for little girls not to go out alone"

"We are two people! Also, we're not little girls anymore! Not only was Minna dissatisfied with his words, but even Manda opened her mouth to refute her brother, and the three cousins were noisy, and they made trouble all the way home

After Bevin handed over the carriage to the servants, he ordered them to pull his own horses over, he took off his gown, turned back to his sister and cousin, and said, "You are suddenly gone, father and mother will be, I will go back and tell them," and then got on his horse and left

As soon as he left, Manda fell silent again and took Minna's hand: "Stay with me, okay?" I want someone to talk to..."

Minna looked at the gloom that reappeared between her eyebrows, a little unbearable, and quickly nodded in response, accompanied her all the way upstairs, changed clothes, and watched her lie on the bed: "What do you want to talk about?" You seem to be tired, why don't you go to bed early? ”

Manda shook her head: "I'm afraid... As soon as I fell asleep, I would have nightmares in which Serrig said that he no longer loved me and that he was going to marry someone else..."

Minna sat on the edge of the bed and said softly, "No, his favorite is you."

"But they all said..."

"They're not him! Unless the second prince tells you in person that he is really not with you anymore, you don't believe a word of other people's words! ”

"But that's his mother..."

"Is he the kind of person who only listens to his mother and doesn't have any ideas? You know him well, right? Don't scare yourself all day long, think more about the time when you were happy before, have confidence in yourself, have confidence in him, and more importantly, have confidence in your feelings! ”

Manda buried her face in the thin quilt and smiled: "Minna, when you say this, you really look like an adult"

"Of course, I'm an adult!" Minna refused to admit that those words were said in Alex's tone

Hey? Why did she think of him again? Shaking her head, she began to lead Manda to talk about the past, reminiscing about the good old days

As she spoke, Manda went to sleep, and Minna carefully tucked the quilt for her before slipping out of the room

The corridor was pitch black, Minna lit the oil lamp on the wall, and suddenly found a few light blue lights on the wall, looked down, only to find that it was the necklace she was wearing, hesitated for a while, she took off the necklace and put it back in the ring

When they came downstairs, Elon and the others happened to come back, and as soon as Lilith saw Minna, she came over angrily and asked, "Others said you took Manda away, why?!" It's rude to leave in the middle of the ball! And, what about Bevan? Where did you take him?! ”

Minna was a little surprised: "Bevany? "Didn't he go back to the venue?

"Mother!" Bevan's voice came from behind her, a little panting Minna looked back at him in surprise, he lowered his head slightly, didn't say anything, and explained to his mother: "Manda was a little uncomfortable, Minna found me and sent her back together We didn't mean to"

Lilith was a little nervous when she heard this: "Uncomfortable? Sick? Why didn't you tell me?! Do you know how much I feel when the other ladies ask about Manda, I can't find you all over the venue?! She glared at Minna as if it was all Minna's fault

"All right, ma'am!" Elon interrupted his wife's words a little impatiently, "I heard someone talking in private, saying that there are a few young ladies who are very effective to become the second princess and go to Manda's trouble, she must be in a bad mood, it's good to come back early, Minna is also to protect Manda, you can say a few words!" He turned to his niece: "Thank you, Minna, I was talking to people at the time, but I didn't notice that such a thing happened to my daughter, it was my negligence"

Minna responded casually, quietly looked at Lilith, and saw that her face was very ugly, and her heart was very happy, so she said to her uncle: "Manda is asleep now, so... I'll go back first, good night, uncle... Auntie"

She made a very standard and elegant curtsy, and walked out the door, and as she passed by Lilith, as soon as she raised her chin, she walked over to Lilith, whose face turned black with anger, and said angrily, "I'll go see Manda!" ”

"Mother, please wait a minute!" Beryl, who had been silent, suddenly stopped her, "I have something I want to talk to you about alone, can I go to my study?" ”

Lilith said impatiently, "I'll talk about it tomorrow, your sister is sick!" She lifted her feet and was about to run upstairs

"It's about the second prince!"

Lilith paused, looked back at her daughter Bevin suspiciously, and frowned, "Beryl, what do you want to talk about?" ”

"I have an idea about the second prince's future partner, and I want to discuss it with my mother," Beryl stared at her mother, "is that okay?" ”

Lilith looked downstairs, then at Beryl, and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Of course."

After leaving the Caddo house, Minna rode all the way to the rose garden, and the wind blew on her face, and her mood was much better

When she ran to the vicinity of the grove, she saw the green house from a distance without lights, and couldn't help muttering in her heart: Could it be that Alex was really fascinated by the beauties and didn't even go home?

A little green light suddenly lit up on the side of the road, and the light group became larger and larger, illuminating several trees around them, as well as the young man in a dark blue dress next to the tree, he looked at Minna and smiled, "Back?" ”

Minna Tingma, for a long time, got off the ground and walked slowly towards him

(Is Minna jealous?) And what will happen to Jada? Keep asking for pink tickets ~~~)
