Chapter 477: Evangeline's Wisdom
Mrs. Evangeline took Kira to soak in the hot spring in the courtyard, and Kira slowly soaked the water in the hot spring, and the two of them laughed from time to time.
Kira has been swimming in the Luoshui River since she was a child, and the water is very good, so she dived under the hot springs, fished up some stones, and asked her mother what it was.
Evangeline took the stones that Kira had fished up and said in surprise, "These are very precious gems. You fished out so much at once, it seems that no one accidentally fell into it. Was it placed here on purpose? That's too extravagant, isn't it? ”
At this time, Kira came out of the water again and said, "Mother, you see I have caught a key. ”
Yi Wen Jielin said: "Okay, let's go back and give it to Marquis Meiyi." ”
The two went ashore, and Evangeline dressed Kira, and after a while, the maid brought dinner, and Kira couldn't help jumping for joy when she saw the exquisite meals and snacks.
After Qi Ling's family finished eating, Qi Ling went to the hot spring alone. Evangeline sat in the hallway with Kira, watching the snowflakes flying all over the sky.
She said enviously: "I can't imagine that your brother Meiyi is so powerful, my mother has been to Ice and Snow City before, it is really a wild place, and now it has become so prosperous, it is no worse than the land of wind, not even worse than Hua Ling." Why is such a young and promising person still alone? Otherwise, I'll go back and introduce your cousin to him. ”
She didn't hear the sound, and when she looked back, Kira was holding the keys and trying to unlock them one by one.
Evangeline said unhappily: "Qiluo, this is too rude. ”
Kira said happily, "Mom, I opened the door!" ”
Before she could stop her, Kira had already run in, picked up the glass lamp and shook it, and let out a long exclamation.
Evanjielin hurriedly rushed over, and after she entered, she also let out a long exclamation.
This is Meiyi's studio.
In front of the huge painting, three beautiful and elegant women wearing crowns sit on the sofa, an elf, a goblin, and a blonde human, all of whom hold cute children in their arms. Behind the sofa, the Marquis of Meiyi put his arm around the shoulders of the three of them.
Kira pointed at the human woman and said, "Mom, isn't that you?" ”
Evangeline walked up to the painting and found a few small words in the corner of the painting: with his beloved wife Serena, Liuxi, Kira and the children.
Evangeline was shocked, picked up Qiluo, and carefully looked at the "Qiluo" in the painting and the Qiluo in her arms, and a terrible thought suddenly came to her mind: Is it my daughter in the painting?
She said to Kira, "It's not a mother, it's just that she just happens to look like her mother." ”
The next painting is a huge white tower, covered with huge trees, reaching into the sky, and next to it stands the silver-haired and golden-eyed goddess Emilia and three cute children. Evangelin could see that these three children were the children in the arms of the three ladies in the previous painting.
It's just that these children are a lot older.
Kira pointed to the little blonde girl in the painting and said, "Mom, you see, this little girl looks like me when I was a child." Why is she crying? ”
Evangelin looked at the corner of the painting, where a few small words were written: Mei Ai, Mei Shu, and Mei Yan next to the World Tree.
She said to herself: Are these Meiyi's children? It must be, otherwise why are they all surnamed Mei?
She then looked at the painting on the wall, and the more she looked at it, her brow furrowed.
When she saw her portrait, she felt like she was electrocuted.
In the corner are a few small words: Beloved Mother, Mrs. Evangerine.
When Evangeline heard Qiling's voice, she hugged Qiluo out, turned off the glass light, locked the door, and whispered to Qiluo: "No one is allowed to say what happened tonight, otherwise we will be regarded as thieves, you know?" ”
Kira nodded earnestly.
Evangerine tossed the key back into the water.
When she went to bed at night, she couldn't sleep at all.
Who is Mei Yi?
Is it a coincidence, or what?
It can't be a coincidence! There are so many portraits of people hanging in there, how can there be so many coincidences?
After thinking about it, the characters in those paintings were older than they were in reality.
Could it be that Meiyi is from the future?
Evangeline shook her head and said in her heart: I'm too ridiculous, how can this kind of thing be possible?
Thinking about it, Evangelin fell asleep in a daze.

The next morning, after Yi Wen Jielin got up, she walked in the yard and saw that there seemed to be a guest at the door, and Jiuli was there to greet her, so she wanted to go over and say hello. As soon as they met, Evangeline was surprised: "Mrs. Luoqin, why are you here too?" ”
When Luo Qin saw Evangeline, he was equally surprised: "Lady Evangeline, did you also come directly from the palace?" ”
When Serena saw Kira, she ran over to play with Kira.
Luo Qin smiled: "This is my future son-in-law's house." ”
Evangeline was startled: "Huh? Is Yelena already engaged? She's still so young! Who is she engaged to? ”
Luo Qin said: "Yes, of course I am engaged to Meiyi." Also, my daughter has changed her name to Serena. It's been a long time since you've been to a palace party, so you don't know. ”
Evangerine exclaimed, "Serena? Can you tell us how you got to know Meiyi? ”
Luo Qin nodded and said, "Yes, when we were still living in the Duke of Hualing's Mansion, Meiyi lived on the opposite side." Later, Iki and I were captured by the opposition nobles, and it was Meiyi who saved us. I saw that Meiyi was very good, so I proposed to let Nana get engaged to him, and who knew that Meiyi really agreed. After he was awarded the title of marquis, the nobles who came to propose marriage all stepped on the door, and Meiyi refused. I think it must be that my Nana is favored by the goddess. ”
Here I want to say that the mother of the three sisters of Alicia is from the Luo family on the banks of the Luoshui River, Elicia's eldest daughter Esther looks like a member of the Ai family, and the second daughter Avril looks more like a member of the Luo family, and her appearance is quite similar to Serena, so Mrs. Evangeline did not see the flaw.
Evangelin finally confirmed her conjecture.
Meiyi came from the future.
That's why he agreed to be engaged to Nana, who was so young, and disdained the marriage requests of other nobles.
Am I really Meiyi's mother?
Evangelin's heart pounded.
She can't wait to go to Meiyi now to ask for clarification.
* * *
In the morning, after breakfast, Mei Yi and Jiu Li met with the family of the Great Lord of Qi Ling in the reception room.
Qi Ling said: "Lord Meiyi, thank you for taking care of you in the past few years. Most of the goods in Ice and Snow City were transported to the Windy Land by sea for distribution, which really made us transfer a lot of money, and we were financially well-off. We all knew in our hearts that you didn't have to. Thank you again for your support and help. ”
Mei Yi said: "Duke Qiling, you don't have to be polite, I am also very happy to be able to do something for the Land of Winds." By the way, is the recent invasion of the windy lands by the surrounding consular districts still serious? ”
Qi Ling said: "Thanks to you, it's a lot better." Now that we are financially well-versed and have the ability to stop the counterattack against these invaders, it would have been unthinkable. I already know what you've told, the Windy Lands are hosting war refugees from the surrounding counties. ”
Mei Yi said: "Our ship has already set off, and we will pick them up soon." Christine and the others jumped very hard, and sooner or later they would start a rebellion, and King Ai Qi would have another headache by then. ”
Qi Ling was shocked: "Will they rebel? ”
Mei Yi said: "This is just my conjecture. Those few arrogant and domineering, there is nothing they can't do. You must also be strict after you go back, these people have no bottom line in doing things. For example, they sent people to invade the Windy Lands, kill them all, lay them on the windy lands, and then complain to the king. Many of the ministers in the court have been bribed, what should you do then? ”
Qi Ling was speechless for a moment.
Evangelin said quietly: "If this really happens, what should we do?" ”
Mei Yi said: "No one dares to touch the Great Lord casually, but they will force the Great Lord of Qi Ling to submit." For example, you and Miss Kira will be placed under house arrest in the royal capital or vice capital. His Majesty the King was also a little afraid of human power, so he would not agree. ”
Qi Ling suddenly became angry and said: "If that's the case, I will fight with the royal family!" ”
Mei Yi said: "Lord Duke, please calm down, this is just my speculation. Although the decision was made by the royal family, the royal family is not the party that is fully responsible. If it really turns against the royal family, the Windy Lands will really disappear from the map. Melohia's descendants were cut off. Madame, as a descendant of the Melohia family, you certainly do not want to see such a thing. ”
Mei Yi never thought that her understatement would make Qi Ling and Yi Wen Jielin jump up.
Evangeline's eyes widened and she said, "How do you know that I am the heir of the Melohia family?" ”
Mei Yi said strangely: "Isn't this something that everyone knows? ”
Yi Wen Jielin's eyes were fixed on Mei Yi, shook her head, and said, "Impossible!" I only told Qiling about this, and even Qiluo didn't know. No one can possibly know! ”
Mei Yi hesitated and said, "What's going on...... I don't know ...... anymore."
He was afraid that Yi Wen Jielin would ask again, but who expected that Yi Wen Jielin said: "Great Lord, it doesn't matter if you know, but please be sure to keep it secret." Until now, there have been people in the kingdom who are hunting down Melohia's descendants in order to erase Melohia from people's memories. It was only a matter of time before the name Melohia was removed from the teachings. ”
Mei Yi nodded again and again and agreed.
He said, "If the kind of thing I said really happens, you might as well agree." It's not easy for me to come forward in this matter, otherwise I will be accused of colluding with the Wind Land, and now, I can't give up Ice City. However, I will make sure that Madame and Miss Kira are safe and sound. ”
Qi Ling was silent for a long time, and her eyes fell on Evangeline, who nodded and sighed: "Meiyi is right, we can't refuse the royal family's mediation measures now. Since the Grand Lord of Meiyi said that he could ensure our safety, I am relieved. ”
After talking about things, Qi Ling walked straight out, and Evanjielin took a few steps behind, and said to Mei Yi: "Lord Mei Yi, I have always been a little strange, why do you take care of our wind land like this? If you don't have anything you want from us, I'll always find it a little weird. ”
Mei Yi said: "We are all human beings, just huddle together to keep warm." ”
Yi Wen Jielin shook her head and said, "Although your appearance is a human race, but your heart is not a human race, I hope to get a more reasonable explanation." ”
Mei Yi scratched her head and said, "I...... I...... I want ......"
Evanjielin said in her heart: Is there no row in our Wind Land like this, you don't even have the same thing you want?
Mei Yi's eyes suddenly lit up, and she said, "I want that portrait of the goddess Melohia in the showroom of the Duke's Mansion!" It was the only surviving realistic portrait of Melohia, and it was priceless! ”
Evangelin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
That's right, Meiyi is my son.
If you haven't been there, no one else can know about it.
If it weren't for my family, I wouldn't have taken him to see it.
Evangeline smiled, "Okay, I know, I'll give it to you later." If that happens, we're all up to you. ”
Mei Yi said: "Don't worry, Mother Yiwen Jielin...... Madam. ”
The smile in Evangeline's eyes widened.
She walked out the door and saw Selena and Kira playing in the snow in the yard, and sighed in her heart: Kira, you guys are really lucky. Since I was a child, my mother was worried that you wouldn't find a good family.
Who would have thought that your husband is such a wonderful person.
