Chapter 18: A Fork in the Road
Potter who returned to the house did not turn on the light, nor did he let the maid undress himself as usual, but slowly took off his clothes in the dark by himself, Duke Potter suddenly felt a cold neck, and immediately raised his hand and said: "The good man spares his life, the gold and silver are on the table, you want to take it, I just want to live without missing arms and legs." Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Phew, whoever wants your stinky money, the elder let me tell you, be careful" Dust behind him removed the dagger around his neck and landed one knee on Potter's fat ass, and when Potter came to his senses, there was no one else in the room. But Duke Potter still lay on the bed happily, a knee in exchange for the money of the rich country is not a loss at all, the Duke of Potter on the bed is also a little depressed, there is no one in his hands who can fight against them, otherwise he can make a small person so humiliated.
The night was quiet, and the buildings in the capital were particularly terrifying under the solemnity of the night. The two of them walked quickly on the road, as if there was some flood beast behind them.
"Two, where are you going?" Dressed in silver armor, Hughes was followed by a group of soldiers armed with spears, and Kasia was about to run backwards only to find that he was also surrounded.
"Isn't this His Royal Highness Kasia, the Grand Prince of the Mark Empire? Is it so late that he no longer stays in the post house and runs to the street to assassinate our military ministers? Take it down for me" Hughes waved his hand, and the soldiers around him rushed past Kasia towards Pryor, and without saying a word, he directly poked a hole in Pryor's body with his spear. Until death, Pryor didn't know what was going on.
Hughes passed by Kasia's side and whispered, "I really don't know if you're arrogant or stupid, who are there around you that we don't know?
Theseus looked at the corpse on the ground and said: "Tonight the assassins are rampant, and they dare to assassinate His Highness Cassia and corrupt the peace talks between the two countries.
After Hughes led the people away, Kasia pulled out the dagger hidden in his waist, slowly cut off Pryor's head, and walked back to the post house step by step.
The night passed quickly, the sun rose quietly, Evan quietly signaled as yesterday, and Iva walked out with the bloody blade on his back, but the actions of Iva and Evan fell into Albert's eyes, but the main thing now was not Ivah, but Ed and Andre.
"Where are we going today?" Aihua asked, he didn't dare to leave, he almost died in the palace yesterday.
"Let's go to dinner," Evan said after a long thought.
The two of them came all the way to the restaurant that day, simply exchanged a few words with the boss, and went directly to the special private room, Evan ate the same dishes as last time, but the taste in his heart was different from last time.
"We're friends, aren't we?" said Evan, shaking the wine in his glass, staring at the red swirl inside.
"That's right," Aihua replied vaguely, eating the contents of her plate. He was used to Evan popping up an inexplicable question from his mouth every now and then
"It's okay, it's okay" Evan squinted his eyes and said, "After eating, let's go to the Red Mansion".
"Okay, listen to you"
After eating, the two walked all the way to the Red Mansion, the first floor here is still so bursting, Evan and Aihua have already been familiar with the road and came directly to the second floor, Evan chose the same clothes for Aihua this time as last time.
Evan left Iva to find his old friend, leaving Iva standing stupidly where he was, and Tasia on the side came over and took him to Nita's room. The sound of the piano is still the same, and the beautiful woman in white and no makeup sits quietly and waits for you to come.
Maybe it was because of Evan's low mood, or maybe too many things had happened in the past two days that made Aihua feel like he was in a dream when he came here again. "Hey," Aihua himself sighed without knowing why.
Nita heard Aihua's sigh, and instead of fishing Aihua as she did last time, she got up and sat down beside Aihua and gently poured a glass of wine for Aihua. Observing the face and looking at the face is the most basic homework of the women of the Red Mansion, after all, they are basically high-ranking officials and nobles who come here, and the rich and wealthy businessmen are all people who have troubles.
"Please," Nita said, holding the glass with her white hand and handing it to Eva. Thinking it was water, Aihua took the wine glass and drank it down, and the wine seemed to turn into a line of fire and run down Aihua's throat. Iva looked at the wine glass and asked, "This is"?
"Wine," Nita said softly, pouring another glass, "Wine can relieve people's worries, and wine can also make people feel happy." Nita picked up the wine glass and drank the wine in the glass under Aihua's gaze, and Nita put down the wine glass with two blush on her face, which added a bit of fireworks to her.
"This is wine, when I was a child, my father had to have two glasses every day, but I didn't expect it to be this taste" Thinking of his father, the homesickness was even stronger, Aihua picked up the wine jug and poured two glasses, Aihua opened the line of defense in his heart under a glass of wine, "So many innocent people died under my knife, why did they kill me? I just did what I should have done, why"? Aihua who was lying on the table muttered in his mouth.
Nita gently stroked Aihua's back and said: "There are too many people in this world who use various means to damage for different reasons, and it is better to kill others, but what can we do? To survive in this world is to hurt others to live, you don't have to think too much, if you have something on your mind, you can come to me."
Aihua raised her head and glanced at Nita, who was smiling at him, and held the wine glass to Nita's mouth, Nita smiled slightly, and when Aihua was about to drink, Aihua took the wine glass back and drank it down. Aihua has heard the same words countless times, and the master has taught him a lesson, but he just can't change it.
Nita wasn't angry, after all, he was the one who could get out of here. "Are you having a drink?" Nita handed Aihua a glass of wine, and when Aihua was about to drink it, Nita took it back and drank it all, as if she had avenged him for molesting herself.
When the two of them were in a strong relationship, there was a loud "bump", and the door was kicked open, and Evan at the door pulled Aihua out of the Red Mansion without saying a word, and in the afterglow, Tasia was reprimanding a crying woman.
It was raining heavily, and the pedestrians were closing the doors and windows and hiding in their homes, and Aihua, who was dazed by the heavy rain, was washed away by the heavy rain to wake up, shook off Evan's hand and asked, "What's wrong with you lately?"
