Chapter 510: Fished
As for the trial, Luna and Vera went downstairs hand in hand before the banquet was almost over, and then said goodbye to the old Marquis de Casa's father, Fleming and his wife, and went out to board their respective carriages.
As soon as she got into the carriage, Luna was completely paralyzed, although she and Vera also rested upstairs for more than half an hour, but other people's places were not as comfortable as their own.
"If Your Highness is tired, take a rest. Susie said as she took a cloak from under her seat and placed it over Luna.
Luna closed her eyes and nodded softly, but Vera's lewd smile when she talked about going to the trial flashed uncontrollably, and her heart beat restlessly.
Especially after experiencing this exhausting and boring banquet, which she doesn't know how many times a year, Luna has the idea of wanting to escape for the first time.
After the banquet at Raphael's house, the royal city was as lively as ever, and the various gossip in the banquet was like a drizzle falling from the sky, smashing dense ripples in the big pond of the royal city, as always, bringing another spice to the monotonous life of the nobles who did not need to worry about their livelihood.
At this time, Luna is standing in Silas's study with Jack, and neither of them has the heart to pay attention to the gossip outside.
"That's it, you leave for Harris City in half a month. Silas said as he looked at Jack.
"Good. Jack pursed his lips, his fists clenched at his side, his shoulders trembling slightly, and he replied in a suppressed voice.
"Father......" Luna looked at Silas and wanted to persuade again, but was directly choked back by Silas's cold eyes.
This made her whole person a little angry, not only angry with herself, but also incapable of resisting this natural suppression, and even more angry that Silas couldn't control Jack, so she had to leave Jack far away.
"Luna, don't persuade him. Listen to him. The afterglow swept at the beast armor that emerged from Luna's fingertips, and Jack grabbed Luna's hand and dragged her out of the study before he said in a dumb voice.
"Jack, the border city is no better than the city defense camp, Uncle Cotton, he ......" Luna glanced at the study that had closed the door, and Cotton, under Silas's instructions, would only be harsher on Jack, but he still didn't say it.
"I understand. ”
Jack rarely changed his old hanging, clenched Luna's fist, dragged Luna to the window, and opened the door of the study, before muttering, and then he paused, looked up at Luna, and said with a smile full of sunshine,
"Actually, I never said that I prefer the simple life of the barracks to this messy royal city. ”
"You ......" Luna couldn't help but be stunned as she watched Jack's face suddenly show a smile that she hadn't seen in years.
"What you did for me and Timmy, although I don't know everything in my stupid mind, I know some of it. Don't blame Timmy, he just can't get used to those people, he can't see you not looking at him, although, although I can't get used to it, I understand it, it's just ......"
Speaking of this, Jack smiled, then pointed to the study and continued,
"Don't you think it's funny for him to jump up every time I get into trouble?"
"Jack!" Luna glared, her voice raising a few bits.
"Oh, I'm your brother too, don't you always follow my father's way of yelling at me!" Jack said with a look of disgust as he raised his hand and plucked his ears.
"The border city has not been peaceful for several years, although Harris City will be better, but ......"
Luna looked at Jack with an indifferent look on her face, and her heart was anxious.
In the past few years, there has been a small fight in three days and a big trouble in five days, and a quarter of the situation has been formed, except for the original Central Empire, and because of the chaos of the year, there were three anti-kings.
And bordering Harris City is one of the anti-king realms, and the people under the anti-kings who don't know how many of their peers who rebelled at the same time are not the masters of the original Central Empire.
"I know, I know. Don't worry!," Jack saw Luna's anxiety and patted her on the shoulder to comfort her.
But obviously, Jack's obviously distracting comfort didn't play a role in Luna's at all, and directly made Luna stare at her, "Can you take a little heart?"
"Luna, I'm not distracted. Jack sighed, and continued, "Wangcheng may seem good to others, but not to me. I can't go into the specifics, but I don't like the way people look at me, they always make me feel uncomfortable, you know?"
Luna was stunned when she heard this, how could she not understand?
Although she was theoretically the same age as Jack, she was actually more than twenty years older than Jack, and whenever there was a banquet, the eyes of the nobles who fell on the three of their siblings were almost noticeable from the first time she attended the banquet.
"I see, you've really figured it out?" asked Luna as she gritted her teeth, her cheeks tense for a long time.
"I think about it, I'm your brother, can't I always let you protect me, I also want to protect you, but I'm not as smart as you, and there is always a problem, this time I also want to see what will happen if no one is willing to protect me." ”
Halfway through his words, Jack turned his face away in embarrassment and looked out the window.
"Brother. Seeing that Jack was still obsessed with the problem of his brother and sister, Luna couldn't help but purse her lips and called out in a low voice with a bit of jerky.
"Huh?" Jack turned his head to look at Luna in disbelief.
"Brother, I know, I know that you and Timmy are fighting with others over me. Luna pursed her lips at Jack and said.
Although Jack and Timmy are impulsive and get into trouble every time, many of these times Luna discovers that they fight people, not only because of their bravery, but also sometimes because of her, because of her reputation on the outside.
Although she didn't care about those people saying bad things about her, Jack wouldn't let those people go as long as he knew.
This is also the reason why she admires Jack and Timmy's passion that she has lost, and also takes the trouble to help Jack and Timmy clean up the aftermath.
"Actually, it's nothing, who made you be my sister?" Jack scratched his head when he heard this, grinning, revealing a mouthful of neat white teeth.
"Silly. Luna pursed her lips in disgust, snorted, and thought again,
"Since you have thought about leaving, then you can't just take Cayden, he can take care of your daily life, but he can't help you with other things, the knights need you to find a way to put it away by yourself, no one can help with this, but I will pick a few good hands from my waiter for you. ”
"Okay, I'm going to stretch out my hand, I'm going to fight hard. You don't want to pick that kind of talk for me, oh, no, when are you going back to the manor? I'll go with you!"
Jack's eyes lit up when he heard this, the waiter cultivated by Luna's manor, he has been greedy for more than a day or two, but before, Luna bit to death and refused to give it to him, for fear that he would bring people to cause trouble in the royal city, but now he can be regarded as letting him catch it!
