After more than ten days of traveling, Valley City is finally not far away. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Amy stayed in the carriage all the way, and although she had Irene as her companion, she still felt very uncomfortable, sitting in the rickety car for a long time, and even after getting out of the carriage, she felt shaking, and it seemed that the long journey was not as good as expected.

The whole team was on the way, except for stopping to rest halfway, Amy couldn't say a word to the duke, it seemed that he was a person who didn't like to talk, or maybe he didn't want to talk because he was in a bad mood, which Amy couldn't verify.

In addition to small talk, Amy also asks Irene for some news about Valley City. According to Irene's introduction on the road, there are some other important members of the Duke's family.

The Duke had two younger brothers, each of whom held important positions in Vale.

There are three children under him, and now that the Knight of Conan has left, Irene is the only daughter, and there is another son, but he is a concubine, and his mother is alive without a name, and even if the concubine becomes the heir in the future, he will be demoted to an earl when he inherits, and the territory will be reduced by a large part.

Amy thought to herself, it's not that complicated. Some dukes have very large families, and a person has more than a dozen children, and it is not easy to remember people.

The carriage stopped, and Amy knew it was time for lunch.

Irene happily jumped out of the carriage, the surrounding environment is different from the king, it is warmer here, the sun shines on the body warmly, according to Irene said, there is no snow at all in Vale City, and there is no cold winter, Amy is very satisfied with this.

She stepped out of the carriage with the help of the maid, her whole body was as sore as if she had fallen apart, and she had never been far away, and she vowed never to go far again.

The neighborhood is beautiful, but she is not in the mood to appreciate it.

"We'll be in Vale at noon tomorrow. The Duke walked over and saw that Amy's face was not very good, and he had made people slow down in order to reduce the bumps along the way, so he had not yet reached Vale City within the planned time.

"yes, I see. Emma had been hoping to arrive sooner, but now that she heard this, she felt that it was too soon, and it would be better to be late.

She didn't know what to do when she got to Valley City, did she really want to marry the duke? she asked the duke to take her out of the royal capital, in order to escape from there, the oppressive life gave her a lot of pain, thinking that it would be a wise choice to flee from the royal capital quickly, but when she calmed down, she found that she might be in another cage.

The next day, they finally arrived in Vale.

Valley City is the largest city in the south, and it is also the strongest, any enemy army that wants to invade from the south, the first thing to consider is to capture Valley City, you can see the importance of Valley City from the geographical location, its strength is naturally not too weak.

Named Valley City, it is not located in a valley, but a city surrounded by mountains on both sides, and uses steep mountain walls as natural walls, and has excellent defensive capabilities.

At the city gates, some officials were already waiting.

Amy sat in the carriage and lifted the curtain to look out, the city did look a little different from Xueman, it was more humid here, and there was some moss in the dark places on the stone floor, I don't know what it would be like to step on it.

The Duke only said a few words and went on, the convoy following closely behind.

Amy is looking out all the way, as a princess, she rarely has the opportunity to contact the outside world, and even when she arrives in Valley City, she will not have much chance to be outside, so seize every moment to experience it.

The carriage was heading towards the rocks, and after a while, Amy saw a castle built on the hill, which looked very magnificent, and there was a stream that flowed down not far away, perhaps the origin of Valley City had something to do with it.

The carriage stopped outside the castle.

"Your Royal Highness, it's here. Irene was happy to finally return to her home.

She stepped out of the carriage and saw two rows of people standing outside to greet her, all of whom were members of the Duke's family, including the extended family of the two brothers, as well as the Duke's concubine and the concubine's mother.

The duke introduced the princess to everyone, but did not introduce them one by one, after a long journey, the princess is very tired now, and there are many opportunities for these things in the future, so there is no need to rush at this moment.

Amy's luggage was brought in by the maids, and her first thought was to go to the cemetery with the duke.

The Knight of Conan has been buried in the cemetery, not far from the castle, separated by a grove.

Amy followed the Duke slowly through the woods, the trees here are tall and straight, the canopy covers the sky and the sun, and the ground is covered with thick fallen leaves, walking on it can feel the strong damp smell, mixed with a hint of rotten smell, fortunately it is not too strong, and I don't feel anything if I endure it.

The cemetery looks ordinary, far from the royal grandeur.

At the entrance of the cemetery there are two stone statues, one on a horse and holding a sword, and the other standing upright with a spear.

"The two of them are the ancestors of our Odohono family and the pioneers of the family business. The duke's expression was solemn, the family was able to come to this point, and the merits established by these two ancestors were important.

Amy looked at it very seriously, the two of them should be brothers, they are both warriors, no wonder the duke's family relied on their military exploits to consolidate their position, it turned out to be a family tradition.

"Let's go, Conan is inside. There was a touch of sadness in the duke's eyes, Conan was not only the heir to the family, but also the child he valued the most.

Knight Conan's tomb is on the right, immediately behind his mother.

The Duke just stood there and didn't say anything.

Amy looked at the words on the tombstone, but the appearance of Knight Conan became blurred, and they met and said a few words. Amy still had a smiling face in her mind, and she couldn't see it clearly, but the sunny warmth still lingered in her heart.

He had brought hope to her life, but now that hope was shattered, she still came to Canyon City, what the hell is this? Amy doesn't believe in providence, if it really is, Knight Conan wouldn't have left so innocently.

It was getting dark.

"Let's go, it's going to rain. The Duke glanced up at the sky, even in winter, Vale City is a place where rain can happen at any time.

"Goodbye, Conan. Amy thought silently in her heart, no matter what she thought before, the situation has changed now, and it has become very ridiculous, if you keep living by nostalgia, what's the point of leaving the royal capital?

Amy had made up her mind that Conan would always have a place in her heart, but she had to let go of it, because a new path had appeared under her feet, and she could not turn back, nor was she allowed to turn back.
