Chapter 20: Relatives in the Imperial Capital
Wake up from the soft queen bed and it's already sunny outside. The fatigue of the journey has disappeared without a trace. Brandy stretched and jumped out of bed. Looking out through the floor-to-ceiling windows, there is a huge garden downstairs in the dormitory, dotted with exotic flowers and plants like bright stars in the sky, and several palace maids are working hard in it.
Pushing open the heavy door of the room, a maid stood in the doorway.
"Sister, are all my companions awake?" asked Flandy as she asked the maid.
"Not yet, young master, you are the first to wake up. The maid said gently.
"Okay. Then I'll lie down a little longer. With that, Frandy wanted to close the door and go back to the house. After all, this is the Imperial Palace, and it doesn't seem good to walk around casually.
"Young Master, wait a minute. The maid hurriedly said.
"Is there something wrong with my sister?"
"Lady Alania commands that you and your little friend should be informed when she is awake. ”
"Lady Alania?" asked Brandy curiously.
"Madame Alania is the wife of Carol, the Minister of the Palace, and a lady of the Palace. ”
"Well, let's go and inform her. I'm going to tell them to wake up!" said Frandy as he began to bang on the door of the room.
"Papapa, papa!"
Except for the little fat Vito, Ted, Lilia, Annie, Gustav, and Katrina have all woken up, probably not staying in such a good room, and they are all fiddling with those displays in the house. As soon as Frandy knocked on the door, several small heads were revealed.
At this time, the maid who had gone to ask Lady Alania to come back, followed by an old woman of noble temperament, about sixty years of age.
The old woman had kind eyes, a calm face, and a graceful demeanor. Coming to Flandy and the others, he said gently: "Children, His Excellency Archmagister Algernon has already gone to the Imperial University of Oskaia, and entrusted me to take care of you when you leave." ”
"When will the old man come back!" Ted was a little anxious when he heard that Algernon was not around.
"Master Ted, don't worry, Your Excellency the Archmage has informed your parents that they will come to pick you up and Miss Lilia. ”
"Abba and Mommy are coming! Wow!" Ted jumped for joy.
"And Anne, Flandy, your grandparents have also been informed. Lady Alania continued.
Anne and Romandy never left the island of Psal, and they had no impression of their grandparents. So it doesn't seem like there's anything exciting. So I just said yes.
As for Vito, Gustav, and Katrina have no relatives in the emperor, there is no notice.
Perhaps all magicians prefer silence to hustle and bustle, and Archmage Algernon is no different. So he chose to land the magic airship at night in the palace, where the news is not easy to leak. Instead of the noisy Arix School of Magic at Oskaia Imperial University. Otherwise, even if it landed in the night sky, the news would have already spread throughout the imperial capital at this time.
The three boys, Brandi, Ted, and Gustav, take turns knocking on the door. Finally woke up the little fat man Vito. The poor little fat man who had been tormented all night would have been better if he had not slept all the time, but this one who had only slept for three or four hours was even more uncomfortable.
Ted and Lilia's home is in the heart of the Imperial Capital, and the Grand Duke's Mansion of Leopold is well known to everyone in the Imperial Capital. Because this is the home of the guardians of the Oskaia Empire.
Although Archmagister Algernon is either at the Imperial University of Oskaia or on the island of Psal, a family that has not been back to for a long time, the current Grand Duke Conrad Leopold is still the pillar of the Oskaia Empire.
Lady Alania had just left the palace with the children when a maid came to report that Grand Duke Conrad and Lady Amisha had arrived at the main palace of the palace, waiting for Master Ted and Miss Lilia to pass.
The two children who heard the news couldn't restrain the thoughts in their hearts, took two small short legs, and ran down the long corridor towards the main palace. Flandy and a few other children also ran along, and Lady Alania and the maids behind hurriedly carried the two skirts and walked briskly behind.
"Mom!" said little Ted, who plunged headlong into the arms of a noblewoman with elegant manners in a long dress of dark blue brocade.
Amisha hugged her two children of her own, and the thoughts she hadn't seen in years turned into tears.
"Ted, Lilia, my darling, Mommy wants to kill you!" Amisha said as she cried.
"We miss Mom too!" Feelings are contagious, and the two children also cried.
General Conrad Leopold, dressed in a military uniform and standing as tall as a pine, also smiled with relief. His grandchildren were carried to the island of Psalal at a very young age. I didn't even hug it much, and I was left behind by the Grand Magister Algernon. Even though he is an imperial general, he is unwilling, but he can't say anything. Now that the grandchildren have finally grown up and returned to themselves, they feel relieved.
Amisha looked at her child, but she couldn't get enough of it. No one can understand the pain of being a mother and not having her children around. Holding the two children at the moment, I feel that the longing of the past few years has finally paid off.
Mom finished hugging Grandpa. But after all, the two children were still too young when they were sent to Psalar Island, and they didn't have much impression of Grandpa. It doesn't seem as close as it is to Mom.
Ted and Lilia's father, Tyro Leopold, was the commander of the First Legion of Oskaia, and His Majesty Haman had personally ordered the family to be reunited, but the palace was a little far from the barracks. So it's not there yet.
"Your Majesty, you are smiling. After the joy of the meeting, Amisha felt a little indecent. Embarrassed to say to Harman.
His Majesty Haman laughed and said, "The Leopold family is reunited today, and it is gratifying. Lady Amisa's true feelings are exactly the nature of being a mother. You don't have to be formal. At noon today, please have lunch at the palace to celebrate the reunion of His Excellency Conrad and Lady Amisha's family, and welcome the children to the imperial capital!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Lady Amisha bowed her legs slightly and lifted the sides of her skirt to make a noble salute to Haman.
Before lunch, Ted and Lilia's father, Tyro Leopold, finally arrived at the palace, he belonged to Harman's son and nephew, and he didn't have to be too polite when he played in the palace as a child.
The royal lunch was extraordinary, much more sumptuous than Psal's. There are many ingredients that children have never seen before, and they are made in unexpected cooking methods. However, Flandi thinks that it is still enjoyable to eat Warcraft meat.
After lunch at the palace, Ted and Lilia returned to the Duke's Palace with General Conrad and their parents. The remaining five friends, led by Mrs. Alania, toured the buildings of the palace.
This imperial palace was built in the first year of the St. Kyle calendar, after the declaration of the unification of the continent by Kyle Oskaia the Great, it took four emperors nearly a hundred years of construction to finally complete, at the beginning of the Second Dark War, the imperial capital was seriously damaged when the Viton Empire was captured, and then repaired, until now it has experienced a history of more than 600 years.
The palace is surrounded by huge gardens. It is the height of summer, and no matter which room in the palace you are in, you can see through the window the strange flowers and flowers competing outside, or white as jade, or yellow as silk, or purple light, or fiery red.
Compared to the resplendent of the palace, the friends prefer to take a dip in the garden.
As evening approached, another maid came to Lady Alania, and two of Anne's uncles of Frank came to the palace, and met His Majesty, and asked Lady Arania to take the children to the main palace.
The title of the Melward family of Anne and Franddy's mother is only a viscount, and the status of Leopold belongs to the world and the world, and the two uncles have never been to the palace, and they have only seen His Majesty Haman from a distance when the emperor is traveling, so naturally they are not as casual as General Conrad and Lady Amisha. Standing in the palace of the main palace is like walking on thin ice, and I dare not face it. But after all, they are relatives of the Pullman family, and His Majesty Haman is more polite to them.
Anne and Romandy were born on the island of Pusher and never left the island. I don't have the slightest impression of these two uncles. It's just that I learned from Mom's mouth that the title of the Melward family was donated by gold coins, and the essence of the Melward family was actually a business family. The two uncles also had no official positions, just two businessmen. But since she was a child, the two brothers have loved this little sister so much, and she misses the two brothers very much.
When Anne and Franky had met their majesty, they went up to their uncles and bowed. Say hello to your uncles.
Kourd and Lowry looked at Anne and Frandy with excitement. The younger sister Amya was married to the island of Psalal and never came back for more than ten years, when suddenly someone from the palace sent a message saying that her nephew and niece were coming, and the two immediately put down their work and followed the messenger of the palace to the palace. He was personally received by His Majesty. The two of them were genuinely afraid. It's like you're in a dream.
