After returning to the lord's mansion, Mei Yi lifted the curtain of the carriage and helped Kira and Evanjielin out of the carriage.

Although there are a lot of natural and beautiful countries in the mansion, after everyone saw Kira, they were still deeply impressed by her beautiful appearance and excellent temperament.

Illya stepped forward and said teasingly, "Your Excellency, this trip to the north has gained a lot, and even the lord's wife and mother-in-law have brought it back?" ”

When Kira heard this, her face flushed with shame, and she didn't know where to put her hand.

Evangerine just smiled and looked at Mei Yi lovingly.

Mei Yi said, "you, how did you become so poor?" This is my classmate Kira and her mother, Mrs. Evangelin. In my name, I wrote a letter to the Great Lord of Qiling, saying that his wife and daughter are in my hands, and if I want to take them home for the New Year, I will pay a lot of money for ransom. ”

Illya actually knew the identities of the two for a long time. She smiled, "As you wish, my lord. Listen to what you just said, why did I become poor, don't you know? ”

Illya said to Kira and Evenjielin, who were bending down with a smile, "Miss Kira, Lady Evenjielin, I will let you go to rest first. If you have a letter to give to you, you can give it to me tomorrow. ”

After saying goodbye to Meiyi, the maid Zhuang Yuan took the two of them to the room that had been arranged for them to rest.

Zhuang Yuan introduced the two of them to the facilities in the mansion all the way, and finally led them to a beautiful building with a garden and hot springs, and said, "Miss, madam, please have a good rest first, and I will take you to the restaurant at lunchtime." Everything in the house is for you, so please feel free to take it as you like. You can walk around the mansion as you like. ”

After Zhuang Yuan left, Qiluo and Yiwen Jielin went to the backyard to take a beautiful bath, and then went to the hot spring to soak for a long time. The hot spring pools are filled with autumn leaves and flower petals, and the temperature is just right. They leaned against the stone wall, looking at the distant sky and the silent trees, and their tired bodies and minds finally relaxed.

Suddenly I felt like I was coming home.

As for clothes or something, the lord's mansion has already prepared a full wardrobe for them, and it is estimated that they will not be able to wear them all in a year.

After a short nap, Evangelin got up. She covered Kira with a quilt, went to the study by herself, and pulled out a piece of stationery to write to her husband. When she saw the rows of "Sombra Fairy Tale Anthology" on the bookshelf, she couldn't help but take out a copy and look at it, and then she completely fell into it, forgetting to write a letter to her husband.

It wasn't until Zhuang Yuan invited them to dinner that she reluctantly put down the book.

After arriving at the restaurant, they heard Mei Yi and the people talking inside, so they said to Zhuang Yuan, "Let's wait outside." It's better to wait until they're done talking before they go in. ”

Mei Yi asked: "How many people have come to Wangcheng and recruited talents this time, and how many have stayed?" ”

Illya said: "There were more than 700 people who came, and some of them left one after another, leaving about 500 people behind......

Mei Yi sighed: "Less is less, but it has exceeded expectations." I don't blame anyone else for this, but we don't blame Sombra City for not being good enough. Take your time. By the way, how is the placement? ”

Illya said: "Three hundred men were sent to the various counties to serve in the middle and lower administrative positions, and the lord's mansion left fifty particularly outstanding men, the guard recruited one hundred, and the remaining one hundred and fifty entered the schools at all levels. ”

Mei Yi took a sip of water, thought for a while, and said, "It's good." This bastard Christine doesn't do anything good, and connives, lords at all levels support their own troops and poison the people. God doesn't have long eyes, and a flood delayed me for months. ”

Illya smiled and said, "Okay, stop complaining. Aren't you back? Take your time. I've received a letter from Evelyn, and it doesn't seem to be going well in Intracity this time? Are they threatening you with the humans of the Windy Lands? ”

When Kira and her mother heard this, their hearts suddenly tightened, and they didn't know what was going on.

Mei Yi said: "It's the same as you predicted." The royal family said to me directly and without subtlety, that it was forbidden to approach the land of the wind. If the two domains under the control of the Great Human Lord were united, they would not sit idly by. ”

Illya said, "With the queen's affection for you, she will definitely ask you to marry an elf or a goblin, and make it clear that you cannot marry a human girl, especially Kira, the daughter of the Great Lord of Qiling, in order to protect you." ”

Kira's face suddenly blushed and her heart jumped, and she felt a little uneasy in her heart.

Mei Yi was surprised: "Mary, how do you know everything?" That is true. ”

Illya said, "My lord, this is a very good guess. As long as you follow the two lines of 'freedom' and 'conscience', you can think of the difference between your approach. You may not like Kira that much, but you will also feel very uncomfortable with the interference of the royal family. ”

"But considering that you have been targeted, you are afraid that the compatriots in the land of Kira and the wind will definitely exclude Kira from the selection of the lord's wife, and also exclude Avril and Hanabi, who are from the royal family, not to mention the weak Liuxi."

Mei Yi smiled: "Come on, what is excluded or not?" Everyone is a young lady from a top aristocratic family in the kingdom, and they may not look down on me, so these elves and goblins in Sombra City who have never seen the world think I am good. ”

Illya said, "Since the royal family has warned you, why did you bring Kira and her mother to Sombra again?" Aren't you afraid that the royal family will attack us in Sombra and the Land of Harmony? ”

Mei Yi said, "For some reason, the royal family suddenly agreed to let Kira and her mother return to the Windy Lands for the New Year, and Lady Alicia told me the first time. If you don't leave quickly, it won't be good for the royal family to change your mind again. Moreover, it was also inconvenient for the Great Lord of Qi Ling to pick up their mothers. There are many things that people are afraid of, but they can't help but talk about morality, Kira is my first friend in the academy and Hualing City, and it's not much to do this for her. ”

Illya asked, "What are you going to do next?" ”

Mei Yi said, "Leave this alone. Sombra City is my place to live, and Madame also said that Sombra City is strong, and it is not so easy for those people to move me. By the way, Princess Agiro will soon be coming to Sombra City, and this matter must be kept absolutely secret, and I plan to make her the head of the lord's affairs office for a while. ”

Illya frightened, "Princess Agilu? That's the crown prince, how could the king let her out? ”

Mei Yi said: "I mentioned this to the queen, and I want the princess to come out to breathe, and by the way, I can reunite with Mei Luke." Originally, the queen said that she would only agree to me if I was married or engaged, but then I don't know why she suddenly agreed. Hey, you elves are so fickle, and it's tiring to get along with you. ”

Illya was dissatisfied: "You are violating the laws of Sombra City by talking like this, and you are suspected of discriminating against elves. ”

"Lord Mary, stop kidding, how dare I discriminate against you elves?" Mei Yi smiled bitterly, "By the way, why haven't Qiluo and Lady Evanjielin come yet, can't they be lost?" I'm going to look for them. Just the four of us today. ”

When Qiluo heard this, she hurriedly wiped her tears, took her mother's hand, knocked on the door, and walked into the restaurant with a smile on her face, "I'm sorry, Meiyi, we're late, so you have been waiting for a long time......"
