The month-long sun was shining in the snowy city, and now a light rain was hanging over the royal city. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Gwenlith doesn't like rain, especially winter rains like this, and the whole sky loses its usual clarity and becomes gray, which makes people feel very uncomfortable.

What made her even more uncomfortable was what happened in the martial arts arena two days ago.

After the Knight of Conan was beheaded by the king, his body was preserved and he could be brought back for burial when his duke's father arrived in the royal capital. It's just that Knight Conan, as the eldest son of the duke and the heir of the future Valley City, is now in such a situation, and the duke will definitely not give up.

If you want to deal with the relationship between the royal family and Valley City, I don't know how much thought it will take to deal with this matter, and Gwen has been having a headache about this matter for the past two days.

The strength of Valley City is not weak, and money has little effect on them to appease them, and even cause them to resent it. A commoner is killed by a nobleman, and the commoner's family may get a sum of money, but he is a duke, and his son is a future duke, is it the same treatment as a commoner?

The duke is already the highest title, and it can't be divided any higher. Then there is one most appropriate way left, marriage.

Marriage, which is also the intention of holding a tournament.

Originally, Amy and Conan's good deeds had already been half done, and if it weren't for the king's sudden destruction, then the Duke of Valley City must have come with a generous gift this time. Everything changed because of a joust.

"Where's the princess?" Gwen came to Amy's room, the door closed, and the maid stood waiting outside the door.

"The princess is still resting. The maid saluted and whispered.

Gwen pushed open the door, and the fire in the room was blazing, and the whole room was filled with a warm atmosphere, as if it were two worlds compared to the outside.

Princess Amy was sleeping on a bed with a cut-out pattern, covered with a violet blanket. This blanket was one of Gwen's hand-picked gifts for her birthday last year.

Because of the unexpected death of Knight Conan, Princess Amy lost her strength after crying for a day and a night, and lay in bed and slept for a whole day. She had never been so sad, and even when the king died last year, she did not faint from crying.

Gwen sat on the edge of the bed and stroked her daughter's hair.

Amy's face was not good-looking, if it weren't for the doctor's previous diagnosis and treatment that she would be fine if she was sad and rested too much for a while, she was afraid that she would have called someone to see her again.

There were still traces of tears streaming down her face, and it looked very incongruous with this beautiful face, but fortunately everything was temporary. As long as she gets married, she will slowly erase the traces left by Conan in her heart.

"The Queen Mother. Princess Amy slowly opened her eyes and saw Gwen sitting beside her, who was still weak and did not have much strength to speak.

"Rest well, and I'll talk about it later. Gwen smiled, she took Amy's hand in both hands and said, although the room was warm, Amy's hand was still a little cold.

It's hard to see such a scene, Amy has never been a weak girl, and sometimes even braver than her king's brother. She also loves to laugh, a smile always blooms on her face, she is too different from usual, Gwen knows that Conan's death has hit her hard, and she doesn't talk about anything else at the moment.

Amy was old enough that even if there was an accident now, she would have to come out of her grief early, and after the anniversary of the king's accession to the throne, she would return to the realm with her future husband and be married by next spring at the latest.

Amy seemed to think about the Knight of Conan again, and tears began to groom in her eyes: "I hate Connor. Because of his arrogance, his bright future was shattered.

"Don't say that, he's your brother and the king today, and you have to learn to respect him and not be as willful as you used to be when you were younger. Gwen's expression didn't change much, but there was an unmistakable tone in his words.

"If he were a worthy king like my father, I would respect him. Amy retorted that Connell's character was not worthy of her respect.

Having grown up in the castle, Amy has long remembered Connell's character. Connor is arrogant, easily jealous, and always wants to trample others under his feet. When Leon was still at court, he fought with Leon everywhere, relying on the support of people behind him, Connor always had the upper hand. Now that Leon is gone, his arrogance cannot be vented, and he begins to look for nothing.

That day in the martial arts arena, she knew that Connor would do something out of the ordinary, but this result was too unexpected for her, and she thought that it would only humiliate Conan, but she didn't expect that it would end up like this.

"Amy, don't say that again. The king has his own royal authority, and you, as a subject, must obey it. Gwen's expression froze.

Gwen is not satisfied with Amy's performance, she was willful when she was a child, and now she is about to marry in Valley City, if she is still so open-mouthed, where should the face of the royal family be placed.

"Is this what you want me to do after all this happened?" Amy's tears didn't fall, and she was disappointed.

"It's not a hope, it's a must. Amy, you have to remember that you are a member of the royal family, and your every move represents the authority of the royal family, and soon you will become a duchess, and the relationship between the duke and the royal family will be maintained through you. If you don't respect the king, what should your husband and children think of the king?" Gwen felt that it was time to reason with her, and that the marriage should not be ruined by being sad. What she needed was a marriage that would cement the power of the royal family, not someone who hated the king.

"So I'm just a tool to defend the rights of the royal family?" Amy looked uncomfortable, she had never thought about it, and now hearing the Queen Mother's words broke her heart more than the death of Knight Conan.

"Amy, what are you talking about? It was your destiny to marry the Duke. Today I just want to tell you not to play with the temper of a child, you will have children next year, and your words and deeds must have the dignity of a duchess, otherwise you will provoke the criticism of others. Gwen was a little annoyed, and when she had a problem, Amy always found the words to anger her.

"So respecting the king and obeying the king's decisions is a sign of majesty?" Amy calmed down and stared straight at Gwen.

"Amy, why do you always go against me. I quarreled with me for Leon, and now I'm pestering for Conan. The gods of nature, are you still my daughter?" Gwen was furious, "think about it these days, you have to wake me up when we celebrate the ceremony." With that, he got up and walked out of Amy's room.

Amy gave up rebuttal, she knew that nothing would come of it if she continued, so she could only quietly watch Gwen leave.
