Chapter 155: An appointment

The bumps in the carriage made Roland feel a little uncomfortable.

Gray looked at Roland with a disgusted look on the side, and said, "Look at you like that, I don't know if I think there's something wrong with you!" Can't stand it for a while? In that case, don't come here in the first place! ”

Roland said unhappily: "The wound on my back hasn't completely healed yet, and I was stabbed by Ellis again, do you want me to be so comfortable?" ”

Gray sat up straight and replied impatiently, "You still know that you were stabbed by Ellis!" I don't understand, she stabbed you, you still dare to meet her, you're really not afraid of death. ”

Roland looked disapproving: "Isn't this still you?" ”

It was precisely because Roland knew that Ellis's motives were unknown and it was difficult to say what would happen when he met her, so Roland did not tell Rand his whereabouts, for fear that Rand would worry about it.

Gray said angrily: "You feel sorry for your little prince, what about me? My life is worthless, isn't it? Do you deserve to be unlucky with you? ”

Roland just looked at Gray and didn't speak, but in his heart, he obviously felt disapproving of Gray's words.

Ever since Roland had seen Gray's magical transformation spell in the outer forest, he had found that Gray's guy was not simple.

Gray is always lazy on weekdays, and doesn't seem to care about anything. But in fact, no matter what he encountered, he was very methodical, and never really showed a nervous and anxious look, giving people a very deep and hidden feeling.

In addition, Gray knows much more about Ellis's matter than Rand, so it is not surprising that Roland will let Gray go out with him this time.

The carriage was driving down a winding alley and came to a sudden stop.

Roland leaned sideways and looked out the window and saw a cloaked shadow blocking the carriage's direction. The shadow was Ellis himself.

Roland slowly got out of the carriage. He saw that Ellis was already acting as usual, except for some faint abrasions on his face.

Roland asked, "What the hell is the matter with you calling me here?" ”

Ellis looked at Roland with some uncertainty in his eyes, and said, "Someone wants to see you." ”

Roland's heart was shocked.

He had always known that Ellis was behind his actions, but he didn't know what the other party's purpose was.

Originally, Roland wanted to secretly investigate who the other party was, but he didn't expect that the other party couldn't wait to appear in front of him.

Roland thought about it, and finally decided to meet the mastermind behind it, because he wanted to know who had been targeting Rand.

Ellis took Roland down the alley all the way to the depths.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, the two men came to a secret door. Ellis moved the mechanism at the door, and the secret door was slowly opened. Roland followed Ellis inside, and then walked for a little while, and finally they stopped at the door of a small room. The door to the room was not closed. A not-so-majestic figure stood in the room, standing with its back to it. The figure heard the sound of the mechanism turning, and turned around.

Ellis was sent out by the man.

Roland looked at each other and felt incredulous. He thought to himself: How could it be him?

The light in the room was very dim, but that didn't stop Roland from seeing each other's faces.

The other party showed a calm expression at this time and said, "Roland." Finally officially met. I'm the Prime Minister of the Land of the Moon, Archimedes, you should know me, right? ”

"Naturally," Roland tried to keep himself quiet, "I don't know why the prime minister in a high position came to see me for a long time?" ”

"Oh?" Archimedes slowly lit an oil lamp, and then sat down: "I didn't expect you to see that I was quite calm, so there is nothing you want to ask?" Archimedes' voice was old, but powerful.

"If you want to say anything, you'll tell me, won't you?"

Roland looked at Archimedes, trying to see something in his eyes.

But Archimedes has been in officialdom for many years, and he has already sharpened his way of dealing with people, and he didn't give Roland this opportunity at all.

"These days. So many things have happened in this Twin Moon City, no, it should have happened to you so many things, don't you have any ideas? I know you're not confused right now, so I'm here to tell you. ”

A hint of cunning flashed in Archimedes' eyes, he glanced at Ellis's distant back, and said slowly: "Ellis, this child has always been valued by me, she is extraordinary at a young age, decisive in trouble, and has made many military exploits. Countless people have died under her, and she is a rare person in the court. Unexpectedly, her mission to assassinate you failed. It seems that you still have some ability, and Catherine really didn't choose the wrong person. ”

Kay, Catherine?

When he heard the name, Roland was stunned for a moment. His heart beat faster, and even his palms began to sweat: did Archimedes know about the ...... between him and the queen Conventions?

"Catherine, this little girl, when I first saw her more than twenty years ago, knew she was not a fuel-efficient lamp. It's just that I didn't expect Catherine to become the queen of our moon country in the end. But she, a prophet, just thinks too much and calculates too much, so she makes herself dead. Archimedes said unhurriedly, and poured Roland a cup of tea: "But there is no way, I am just interested in her!" More and more interested, so I need someone to be by her side at all times to protect her, to help me pay attention to the people who appear around her, to tell me what she says and does to others, even if she is already a queen......"

Roland tried hard to make himself look calmer. But he knew in his heart that Archimedes could say this because he knew the oath made between Roland and Catherine seven years ago.

Roland felt his heart beat fast, and sweat was all over his neck and forehead.

Archimedes continued: "At that time, I wondered, what did she like about you? You're just a commoner from a humble background, how could she let you stay by her son, who cares about the most? I can't see it, so I've been silently watching you. At first, I didn't find anything, but after seven years, guess what I found? And your performance in the outer forest, that's really 'amazing'! I never imagined that you would stab the king's favorite young son...... Now that rumors are already spreading about you in Twin Moon City, how do you plan to stay in this Moon Country in the future? ”

The surroundings are quiet and somewhat gloomy. Such an atmosphere makes people feel very uncomfortable, and it is depressing, and it makes people feel breathless.

Roland took a deep breath and did not take Archimedes' words, but said, "What do you want me to do?" ”

Archimedes smiled: "What a smart man. ”

Then Archimedes suddenly changed his expression again, and said, "I think you should know in your heart that the country of the moon is about to change the sky." How long will this old king last? Who among the princes could ascend to the throne? Don't you have any interest in these things? ”

Roland was shocked, and then he glanced at Archimedes again, but quickly calmed down, and silently began to guess the meaning of Archimedes' words.
