217, true and false, false and true
“...... Woo?...... "In the Eberlock barracks, a delicate lady woke up from her sleep, she was definitely having some kind of nightmare, and it wasn't until she touched the chest of the man she was nestling up to, that her panicked heart calmed down a little.
With the help of the faint moonlight, she looked at the face that haunted her soul, and her eyes were full of tenderness, then she looked at an object next to the pillow, her eyes showed joy, and then she lay on the man's chest again, found a comfortable position and fell asleep again.
When she began to breathe evenly, the person she was nestling up to suddenly opened his eyes, and he gently stroked the delicate jade back of the beautiful woman, his eyes full of complexity.
It's been three days, he's been taken care of for three days, and in the past three days, the eldest lady has almost poured her heart on him, filling his heart with guilt as a guy who has been acting.
The object next to the pillow was a concentric knot woven by him and Althea from each other's hair, and because her spirit was stimulated, Althea couldn't tell the difference between reality and dreams these days, and often worried about whether everything in front of her was true.
She would wake up many times almost every night, and in order to reassure her, Zhang Li asked her to make something that could prove reality, and every time she saw that thing she knew that she was indeed safe, and then at his suggestion, they made a concentric knot.
Brown is his hair color, black is hers, in the Celestial Empire, the concentric knot that means eternal knot and concentricity also exerts the same power here, Althea baby can't, every time you have to look at it a few times to feel at ease.
However, Zhang Li was even more guilty.
The most difficult thing to be graced by the beauty, the former Althea may have liked him and worshiped him, but there may not be no doubts in it, doubting whether he is close to her because of her identity, doubting whether he has any plans, and even the reason why she is with him, maybe there is a trace of rebellion.
What is precious to anyone is what they can't get, and Althea has been educated as an heir since she was a child, and she longs for the elegant life of other noble ladies, who are even more envious of her as a free duchess in the future.
So there must be a liking, but it's not pure, and now, Zhang Li can feel her heavy affection, a delicate and willful eldest lady has become obedient, similar to the ancient Celestial Empire, the kind of three-subordination and four-German woman, the whole heart is hanging on him, and this weight has only been three days for him to have the idea of escaping.
If he is really an infatuated lover as he plays, it would be fine, but the fact is that he is just acting, and he does have plans for others.
In the past few days, the reason why his acting skills have no flaws, and even mental fluctuations can be simulated is because of the credit of Zhinao.
Zhi Brain deduced the symptoms he should have, and then helped him act just right, so he deserved this feeling.
Speaking of which, there is actually a reason why Zhang Li wants to add such a scene to himself and save the duke and his wife.
Admittedly, if he didn't save the Duchess and Duchess, there would be no obstacle between him and Althea, and he could control the Twilight Forest through Althea and make such a huge territory work for him, but this was only idealized.
If the Duchess were really dead, he wouldn't be able to do whatever he wanted here, and even if Althea was willing to let him do whatever he wanted, her vassals wouldn't be willing, and don't forget, there is a Night Council in Night Town, just like the Stormwind Council in Stormwind City, after all, this is equivalent to a principality.
These vassals will never let Zhang Li do whatever he wants, even if he really wants to help restore prosperity here, everyone has selfish intentions, and there will definitely be many people who will stand up and attack him at that time, and there will definitely be loyal people who will give advice in Althea's ear, telling her that as a lord she must have assertiveness or something, Althea may not be able to do anything for a while, but it is not ruled out that one day she will suddenly get tired of this feeling, and she may begin to alienate him.
There is no immutable love, let alone that she is a female lord, is there still a few romantic chronicles of female lords in history?
And now, he saved the Duchess and Duchess, taking a huge risk, a risk he pretended to be himself, but no matter what, he made everyone here owe him a huge favor, the weight of which could almost make him do whatever he wanted.
He also made everyone who doubted him shut up, especially the duchess and duchess, who moved Althea so much that he would never forget this feeling in his life.
No one would ever suspect that he was close to Althea's purpose, and after that, it would be much easier for him to control the place through Althea, as long as his proposal was really to restore the prosperity of the place, there would be little resistance, on the contrary, people would have to be grateful to him.
Duke Eberlock, who prides himself on being old, has already begun to let Althea take over the affairs of the territory, just like every parent who clears the way for his children, he asked Althea to form a night watchman was the first step, and then he also gave Althea access to the management of the factory, and now he has become the leader of the army of 30,000, which is enough to explain everything.
Of course, Duke Eberlock will not know that he can live for a long time, he will still be able to breathe after more than ten years, he doesn't know, he is like every old man who has reached his age, he feels that he has to leave something to his descendants, so in the future reconstruction of the Twilight Forest, he will definitely let Althea take on a lot of responsibilities, which gives Zhang Li room to operate.
Althea may have dreamed of something, and suddenly let out a sweet laugh, and Zhang Li's hand stroking her back stopped, he thought he had tickled her flesh.
"Woo~~Li~~ There, no......" said in his mouth, and his little body was still twisting around, I'm afraid I didn't have some spring dreams, right?
"It's really ......" is really cute by her.
That's it, whether it's true or not, I'll accompany you to play for the rest of my life, maybe it will become true in the end?
He kissed Althea's cheek dotingly, and with a heart full of guilt, Zhang Li also closed his eyes.
According to Zhi Brain's calculations, tomorrow he can pretend to go out for a walk, and after lying down for five days, he feels funny all over his body.
..................
"What are you doing?" The next night, Zhang Li found Vilinde, an elf girl who was praying by the campfire.
"Is that you? are you better?" Seeing Zhang Li, Vilinde showed a kind smile, and then the smile quickly became sly: "Why didn't that lady of yours follow you?"
"She led her troops to fight, after all, she is the nominal leader, and tonight is the general attack, and it is really unreasonable for her not to come forward. "That's right, tonight is the general attack on the Ogre of Vogul, in the past few days, the airship has been bombing above the ogre's head, plus Garissol with the large number of people, day and night to send people to feint attacks, the ogre is unbearable, the spirit is greatly damaged, tonight is the beginning of the general attack.
"Then why didn't you follow your lady?"
"Please, don't shame me anymore, everyone is going to tease me with that sentence when they see me today, I can't stand it anymore. ”
"Hmph~~ You don't know how many women want the whole world to know how their lover loves them. ”
"That's you women, we men are much deeper. ”
"Cut ......"
