The sky finally cleared, and the sun, which had not been seen for several days, came out to shine on the snowy city. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The originally bustling snow-filled avenue is exceptionally quiet today, and there are patrol battalion soldiers in black armor standing on both sides of the street, and idlers and others are not allowed to appear on the snowy avenue from today until the end of the celebration of the king's accession to the throne.

The snow avenue leads from the main entrance of the castle to the garden square, and the two places are separated by more than 1,000 meters, which is the only way for officials to go to court and lords from all over the world to meet them.

Gwynlith got up earlier than usual today, because the king was too ill to attend the court meeting, and she, as the queen mother, needed to go to the government.

The ministers did not report anything important today, so it was quickly over.

"Queen Mother, why did Your Majesty suddenly get sick, but yesterday was fine. "The former prime minister hurriedly stopped Gwen, how could he be so sick that he couldn't get out of bed in just one day, could it be that the king was lazy and deliberately didn't come?

"Your Excellency, this illness is indeed sudden, if you are concerned about Your Majesty's health, you should go and see it for yourself. Gwen's answer seemed calm, but there was a hint of annoyance, and she was a little upset that her words were questioned by others.

The king was indeed ill, and had been sick the night after not knowing what he had eaten, and this morning he was unconscious, and his forehead was hot. After the imperial doctor diagnosed, he couldn't say what the reason was, so he could only prescribe some fever-reducing medicine.

"Your Majesty should rest well if he is unwell, and I will not bother. "How can the prime minister not understand the words of the Queen Mother, he has been a high-ranking official for so many years, no matter how stupid he is.

It was about to be a celebration, and it was not a good thing for the king to be sick at this time, and when the time came, the king would not be able to see the king, so how could the celebration be held? Not to mention that there was going to be a dinner tonight for the Duke of O'Dohono, and the king's absence would only make the duke suspicious.

"Prime Minister, the dinner will be held as usual, and I will attend in place of the King. "Gwen was ready for it.

The dinner was held in the hall of the castle.

The flames in the fireplace were blazing, and with the people coming and going, the temperature of the entire hall rose significantly.

Sauce-soaked grilled meats, freshly baked toasts, and fruity wines are served on the table, and the aroma is so fragrant that you can't help but take a sip.

The singers in the hall played the harp and sang songs selflessly, while the nobles on the side held their wine glasses and laughed loudly, which was clearly different from the front row of the hall.

Queen Mother Gwynlith sat in a separate position in the centre, with Duke O'Dohono and his youngest daughter in the lower left, with the Prime Minister sitting with him. On the lower right are the Minister of the Interior, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and the University Scholar.

The dinner had been held for half an hour, but there was silence between the crowd except for a few pleasantries, and the atmosphere between them and the hall were completely two worlds.

The door of the hall was slowly opened, and the originally noisy hall soon fell silent, and everyone's eyes were drawn to the person outside the door.

Princess Amy is here.

She was as beautiful as the legend had been, and there was hardly a blemish to be found. The long golden hair was naturally scattered, a sapphire tiara was luxurious and solemn, and the light blue evening dress looked like it was made by a court craftsman.

Amy walked down the hall to Gwen.

"Queen Mother, Duke O'Dohorno, Ladies and Gentlemen. Amy's heart didn't want to attend this dinner, but she was forced to show up, and since she came, she had to do the proper etiquette.

"Amy, come and sit here. Gwen motioned for her to come to her side, barely an arm's length from the Duke.

After Amy took her seat, the whole hall was lively again.

"This is Irene, the Duke's daughter. Gwen enthusiastically introduced.

"Hello, Irene. ”

"Hello, Your Highness Princess. ”

It was only then that Amy took a closer look at Duke O'Dohono. He had the same brown hair as Knight Conan, and he was tall, except for a long scar on his face that affected his appearance, and he had sharp eyes that seemed to be impossible to hide from him.

"Is Princess Amy afraid of the scar on my face?" the Duke saw that Amy looked a little evasive, thinking that she was scared, she was not the first, and many noble ladies were afraid of him.

"Nope. Amy shook his head, he just remembered the Knight of Conan when he saw the Duke. The king had beheaded his son, and now invited him to sit in the hall of laughter, and Amy felt too guilty to look at him.

"King Jamie saved my life to leave this scar, otherwise it would have been my head. The Duke didn't seem to blame anyone else for the death of Knight Conan, and his covetous tone seemed light-hearted.

When he was out on a campaign, the Duke almost had his head cut off with a knife, but fortunately the king came to his rescue in time, and the blade slashed through his face, leaving him with a terrible scar.

"I've never heard my father say anything like this. Amy's interest was in the same mood, and the Duke and the Knight of Conan were also very similar, and Amy felt very relaxed when she talked to them, and her previous boredom was also lessened.

"These things have happened so much, how can King Jamie remember them all, I just haven't forgotten them. The Duke took a sip of wine.

Amy nodded and didn't say anything. Perhaps it was precisely because of this incident that the Duke did not get angry, and it is for the sake of King Jamie's face that he can sit here calmly today, Amy thought in her heart, but she didn't say it in her mouth. No matter how great the kindness is, it will all be written off at this time.

Gwen had never known that there was such a thing between the Duke and King Jamie, but it would have solved a lot of trouble, at least she wouldn't have to bother to calm the Duke's mind.

As for the marriage of the duke and princess, Gwen will not give up. From the conversation just now, she could see that the two did not dislike each other, as long as there was a good beginning, the next thing was logical.

The duke seems to be calm now, but after returning to Vale, he will inevitably be instigated by others, and the princess still has to marry to ensure that Vale will not act rashly, once Amy becomes the duchess and gives birth to an heir, then Vale will be part of the royal family.

The vocal music in the hall was brisk, and many people invited their dance partners to start dancing in the hall.

"Isn't the Duke going to join in the fun?" Gwen wanted to take the opportunity to win over him and Amy.

Amy thinks she's really crazy, the Duke just went to the Holy See to see his son today, and now he wants others to dance in this environment, don't you think about others?

"That's not necessary, I'm a rude person who is not suitable for such a noble activity of the royal family. The Duke raised his glass and refused.
