Chapter XXVII
Kayl threw the permission paperwork that he had written overnight to the princess: "Leaving you alone before is nothing more than to balance your country. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info but now the lonely country is not guaranteed, and leaving you by your side is just a burden. ”
The princess had been waiting for this letter for too long, but when she finally touched the flaming wolf head coat of arms of His Royal Highness the prince with her own hands, her uneasy heart spread and burned like a sparkling fire, burning the joy in her heart.
Kayl raised his hand and said in a rough voice: "Let's go, and then tell your people what you have been going through! Let them prepare in advance, and if war is inevitable, at least be prepared to put out the fire!"
The proud Ranger General also knelt down on one knee and said sincerely: "His Highness Kayl is noble and benevolent, and he should remember it in his heart. ”
The princess's heart was surging, and she couldn't help choking: "Prince, you ......"
Kail heartily threw the wolf's fangs to the princess: "As a friend, I can't let you return to your homeland in style." At least this Broken Tooth will be left for you as a souvenir!"
"Friend?" said the princess, whose tears welled up in her eyes, forming a small stream on her pink cheeks, "haven't we been rivals for years?"
Prince Kayl grinned: "You dare to be a lonely old enemy even because of these two times?, but I don't hate backbone guys, since you claim to be my old enemy, let me see your determination to save everyone!"
Returning to the Sun Elf Palace, the princess stroked the wolf tooth pendant and said firmly, This is what I have experienced personally, and telling everyone all this is what I promised Prince Kayl to do!
"And what about the Ranger General?" the ministers asked.
He ...... He stayed in the Forest of the Moon, continuing to monitor the anomaly. ”
Oloran then clapped her hands with a smile and said lazily: "Sister, I have to say that this story is still quite twisted and bizarre. If you had arrived a day earlier, we might have believed what you had to say. It's just a pity, it's a pity, it's a pity......"
The princess was angry in her heart: "What is the pity?"
Auloran said lightly, "Just today, the Moon Elf envoy also sent a gift to express the friendship between the two countries, conveying Prince Kayir's friendly wishes. There is not the slightest hint of what you said, the kingdom is withering and the power is on the sidelines. ”
"And Field Marshal Lu Dejia and Treasurer Levi have just received our ...... Gift. ”
The princess was shocked: "This is impossible! Those two people have already been hanged!"
"If it is such a big thing as hanging, why didn't our ambassador to Muentia inform us about it at all?"
"That's right, it's the ambassador's job to convey state events, not the princess's job. ”
In the face of the ministers who were clamoring again, the princess did not give an inch, and said excitedly: "In the year 220 BC, in the kingdom of light, in the kingdom of light, the servants of the god of darkness Knox launched a surprise attack on the capital of Faruna, which is known as the first battle of the war of light and darkness. In 1467 of the Guangming calendar, the moon elves once attacked the Nolan Mountains next to the Jingmei River, but fortunately, the sun elves developed the Mysterious Eagle to recover the lost territory, which is known as the Battle of Nolan. In the year 2033 of the Bright Calendar, the Moon Elves ignited a war and occupied the territory of the fifteen states in the west of our country, thanks to the help of the magicians of the Karenitz Academy to stabilize the front, known as the Siege of the Fifteen States ......"
The princess breathed slightly, then stretched out her palm and pointed at the ministers: "Then please answer me, my lords, did the persecuted countries not send ambassadors to the enemy countries before the outbreak of these historical wars?
Seeing that the ministers began to waver, Auroran asked, "But if the Forest of the Hidden Moon is really in civil strife, it won't hurt us, will it?"
"That's no ordinary civil strife!" the princess retorted angrily, "It's the forces of darkness invading! It's a bloody revolution set off by a witch in black!
The palace fell silent again, the emperor's eyes were sunken, and he leaned on the emperor's seat tiredly, and after a long time said, "Flora, who taught you to make up this story?"
"Made-up?" the princess saw that the words had been said to this point, but she still did not gain everyone's trust, and despair surged violently in her heart.
"Daughter, don't forget, the land of our elves is an inviolable pure land. In the war of light and darkness, although the people of the tree did not believe in the twelve gods, they still chose to stand on the side of justice and participated in the coalition of faruna, the king of the moon and the emperor of the holy sun teamed up to deal a heavy blow to Knox, in order to thank the elves for their assistance, the twelve gods built a magic circle covering the whole territory in the land of the elves-"
"Celestial Starlight Barrier......" the princess replied in a low voice.
"That's right. The Emperor slowly stood up, "Alien dark things, as long as they set foot in the land of the elves, will evaporate into a puff of green smoke under the light of the stars. Whether it's a werewolf or a vampire, even a powerhouse like the Black Dragon General Brian Della will be wiped out in the process of crashing into the enchantment. ”
The emperor stepped down from the throne and said with a grim gaze: "The story of the dark invasion is not your original. I'd only heard it once during the day from the high-ranking leaders of the Knights of Light, and it was clear to me that they were spreading rumors in order to gain the privilege of establishing a sanctuary and propagating doctrine in the Forest of Golden Light. ”
The princess's heart lifted, it turned out that the Knights of Light had visited Sorantiel earlier, and it was this matter that was discussed.
The elves have always been reluctant to associate with the people of the Order of Light, and it is no wonder that he has said the same thing to them, so it is no wonder that everyone is suspicious.
Auroran said contemptuously, "Sister, don't you make any deal with those people in the Order of Light, right?"
"You!" the princess glared angrily, not wanting to swallow her anger any longer, and strode forward with a fist that was about to hit her brother in the face.
But Audrey took a step forward and grabbed her sister's hand: "Sister, if you beat someone, he will say that you have a weak heart." ”
"But this guy has been distorting every word I say to mean that I'm doing a ghost!"
Auroran pretended to be heartbroken and said, "In order to evade the obligations of the peacebringer, I would rather collude with the Order of Light to deceive my father." Flora, you weren't such a kid before. ”
The denunciation of the princess intensified, and the denunciation and criticism resounded through the hall. The princess had a splitting headache, and her red eyes were about to punch her brother in the hypocritical face.
But when she grabbed the wolf's fangs, the cold touch suppressed the anger.
Then the princess said aloud, "Since no one believes what I say, I am willing to prove my honesty through the ritual of exoneration!"
The ministers looked at Her Royal Highness the princess in astonishment, and the denunciation came to an abrupt end.
"If the water does not turn into flames, it proves that there are no lies and evil thoughts in my heart. Thus proving that I am not joking with the fate of the country!"
In the Golden Dawn Forest, the amount of time a person who commits a crime is not fixed. As long as the prisoner shows that he has repented and rehabilitated, even if he has only been imprisoned for a day, he can be freed.
It's just that in order to prove that you are not lying, the necessary step to go through is the "exoneration ceremony".
Bathing one's body with the water of the River of the Dead, if the former criminal really came to his senses and killed his evil thoughts completely, the water would not burn his soul. If he just lies casually and does not completely say goodbye to the consciousness of sin, the water will turn into a flame and make him miserable, and then the judge will send him back to serve his sentence.
This seemingly loose law is actually more stringent, and there are many elves who have been locked up for seventy or eighty years for stealing a basket of apples, and if he never realizes that "even if I am poor and hungry, I should not rob other people's property", he will never be able to pass the test of the ritual of removing sin, and there are very few people who can really change their minds.
And no matter who you are, you can't really be completely free from a trace of evil thoughts in your heart.
Even the small thought of "I want to steal my sister's snacks" can cause unbearable burning pain in the soul of the person being tested during the ritual of repentance.
The princess made this decision with a considerable awareness, and she knew very well that as long as she poured the water of the Jingming River, she knew that the pain might be beyond imagination. But as long as the dark side of the heart is not enough to make this water burn, you can prove that you are not a bad person.
Audrey said nervously, "Sister, that's a ritual for sinners!"
The princess laughed miserably, "Where am I not a sinner now?"
Auroran panicked, "No, no! I don't agree with you doing this!"
The princess sneered, "There's no need to be so scared, brother. It's not you who will be tested. ”
Auroran gritted her teeth secretly, she didn't expect her sister to be so tough. If she can really pass the trial, she will surely be able to recover her identity and gain a firm foothold in Sorantiel. He was sure that it would not benefit him at all, and Oloran understood that this sister not only held a secret that was extremely unfavorable to him, but the worst thing was that she must hate herself deeply, and if she secretly did it in the future, it was difficult to say whether the succession to the throne would be held securely in her own hands.
In the eyes of this prince, darkness is approaching and war is coming, those are things far away, and all he cares about is his own position, only everything he has worked hard for ten years.
It is necessary to prevent my sister from going to the Jingmei River for the ritual of repentance.
