After Rogge left, Elizabeth sat alone in the tent, sitting at a loss, Rogge's words echoed in her ears, making her heart messy, she didn't know what she should choose, and what would happen to the future of the blood clan that was tied to her fate?

A hand quietly lifted the curtain of the door, and a face crept in from the outside, Elizabeth did not notice the unusual situation, still bowed her head and immersed in contradictory contemplation, the person at the door stared at her for a few seconds, and then flashed into the tent lightly.

It wasn't until the visitor's hand lightly pressed Elizabeth's shoulder that she suddenly raised her head and looked at the visitor in horror, and when she saw the concerned expression on her sister's face, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and the heart that had just been dispelled by the panic lingered in her heart again.

Looking at her sister's melancholy face, Shirley half-knelt down beside her sister, took her hand and looked at her distressedly, stretched out one of her small hands and stroked her cheek and said, "Sister, you have never been so haggard, you look like you have aged a hundred years overnight." ”

Elizabeth looked up at Shirley, gently grabbed her hand and pulled her into her arms, pressed her cheek to her sister's hair, and after a long silence, she finally mustered up the courage to ask, "What do you think if my sister marries someone now and puts the future of us and the blood clan in his hands?"

Hearing Elizabeth's words, Shirley straightened up in surprise and looked at her sister, and after a short pause, she asked with concern, "Sister, what happened? Who are you going to marry?"

Elizabeth lowered her head and sighed, and told Shirley what had just happened, and after learning about Rogge's suggestion, Shirley's hanging heart instantly relaxed, and she said to Elizabeth happily: "Sister, if that's the case, of course it's a good thing, it's the best of both worlds!"

"Shirley, can we really trust him?" the sister's excitement did not infect Elizabeth, and the lingering hesitation in her heart still tormented her.

She shook her head sadly by holding Shirley's hand and said, "What if he betrays us and betrays the Bloodline? What if he only wants the future of mankind and treats us all as victims? The power in his hands is much stronger than ours, if one day he wants to kill us......

Before Elizabeth's words were finished, Shirley suddenly stretched out her little hand to cover her mouth, and Elizabeth, who fell into silence, looked at the calm expression on her sister's face, and only heard Shirley say: "Sister, if you are just conflicting about these issues, then you don't need to do this at all." ”

She withdrew her hand from Elizabeth's mouth, sat down across from her and took her hand and said, "Sister, I know you have never trusted Antonio, because you have always disregarded him as a member of the Bloodline, and even to this day, you still think that he is a human and not a member of the Bloodline. ”

"But you forgot the most important point...... "Shirley gently squeezed Elizabeth's palm, and the eldest princess looked at her sister with concern, only to hear Shirley say: "Why did Antonio become like this? ”

"Not only that, but the humans have been hunting him down now, remember? Not long ago, he used his magic power to kill tens of thousands of human troops in order to resist the invasion of the human army, and in the eyes of the human race, he is already a heinous demon, not one of them......"

At this point, Shirley took Elizabeth's hand to herself, and at the same time leaned over to her and said earnestly: "Now Antonio, in the middle of a life, human beings have regarded him as an enemy, and now he desperately wants to be accepted by the blood clan, why should he do anything to betray us? We are his relatives, not human beings!"

Her sister's words were like an empowerment, awakening the piece of window paper that had been hazy in front of Elizabeth's eyes, and she bowed her head to chew on Shirley's words, pondering Antonio's words and actions since he came to the Cursed Lands, and then Shirley continued to speak.

"Sister, I admit that Antonio still has an old affection for humans, he doesn't want to see humans slaughtered by the bloods, and he doesn't want to see another war between the two races, but this does not affect the relationship between Antonio and us, and we don't want the war to reignite again, he needs a home, and we need a king, all this is not contradictory. ”

"As for your worries about him killing us," Shirley smiled a little, she snuggled her face into her sister's arms, and said with a grin, "Sister, I know that you have been monitoring their every move, don't you know Antonio's character better than I do?"

"If he wants to kill you, he can just come over himself tonight, why let me come?"

Rogge's words suddenly flashed through Elizabeth's mind, and at the same time Shirley continued: "Do you remember the mermaid who once fell in love with Antonio?

Elizabeth listened silently, but what had happened to Antonio and Tali came to her mind bit by bit, and she had always been familiar with their surveillance, and she had even envied Tali's happiness and envied that she had such a loving person by her side.

"Is that really going to be like that?" Elizabeth asked her sister with a longing but somewhat uneasy look, Shirley took her hand and looked up at her sister and said confidently: "Of course, sister, do you remember?

Shirley's words suddenly awakened a memory in Elizabeth's mind that had almost faded, and only two men in her life had ever fed her his own blood to save her life, one was Rogge and the other was Antonio.

"I've been very bad with him since he came here, but he's never reproached me, and even that day in the banquet hall he knew I was going to kill him, he didn't show the slightest anger or hatred, and if I had made peace with him that day, maybe he would have acted as if nothing had happened......"

Elizabeth whispered to herself in her heart, a change of opinion towards Antonio gradually replacing the preconceptions that had been entrenched in her heart for a long time, and on the contrary, an impulse to have a home, someone to rely on, was encouraging her to accept the kindness that had been sent to her.

"Then Shirley, I should have promised them, right?" asked Elizabeth, who looked down at her sister one last time, clasping her little hands tightly.

Shirley looked up at her sister's face, and there was already a hint of expectation in her expression, she knew that her sister was willing to unload this burden and leave herself and everything to a trustworthy person to take care of, she nodded to her sister affirmatively, and saw that the exhaustion and sorrow on her sister's face dissipated in an instant at that moment.

At dawn, the messenger sent by Elizabeth handed her reply into Rogge's hand, and after reading the reply in his hand, Rogge raised his head and looked at the first rays of the morning sun outside the window, showing a smile of relief.

"Bad wolf, did the bad princess agree?" asked lazily as the little furball curled up on his shoulders poked its little head out from under its wings, glancing at the smile on his face.

"Yes, Elizabeth agreed, and the rest is to get Antonio. Rogge said as he lowered his head to put the letter away, then turned and left the room and walked towards Antonio's bedroom.

When he came to Antonio's room, Antonio still hadn't slept, and Rogge pushed the door open after getting a response, and Antonio sat in the room with the heavy curtains drawn, watching him by the coffin in the shadows, his eyes sparkling in the dark.

"You haven't slept yet, what's the matter?" said Antonio, sitting up straight and looking at Roger with a tired face.

"Nothing new," said Rogge, who walked up to Antonio, "just like when I went to Elizabeth, I came again to negotiate terms." ”

Antonio looked up at him in surprise and asked in confusion, "Negotiate terms?"

"That's right," Rogge stood in front of him, looked down at his puzzled face, took Elizabeth's reply letter from his body and handed it to Antonio, who took the letter and looked down halfway, then suddenly jumped up from his chair and exclaimed, "What have you done?"

"It's nothing, I just gave you a family business. Rogge replied with a calm smile.

"This can't be!" said Antonio, slapping the letter on Rogge's chest, and exclaiming, "I must not marry Elizabeth!"

Rogge grabbed the letter that slipped from his chest, smiled and looked down, looked up at Antonio's back and said, "Why, you don't look down on Her Royal Highness the Princess?" Then I want to criticize you, Her Royal Highness the Princess is one in a hundred in terms of figure, appearance, and ability, and her status is completely worthy of you, you ......."

Before he could finish his words, Antonio suddenly turned around and interrupted him sharply: "Do you really not understand or are you pretending to be confused with me?"

Rog stared at his angry eyes and was silent for a moment, shrugged his shoulders and put the letter away, saying, "Okay, let's not beat around the bush, I know you're for Tully, it's true, it's only been a month since Tully died, I can understand that you can't accept this marriage." ”

He lowered his head and took out a cigar and lit it, looked at Antonio with the corner of his mouth in his mouth, and said, "But if you think about it from another perspective, this marriage is not just about you and Elizabeth, it is about the entire Cursed Lands and the Bloodline Dynasty, and in a way, it can ensure that Tali's sacrifice will not be in vain." ”

He walked slowly behind Antonio, pressed a hand lightly on his shoulder and asked, "Isn't it the first thing you should consider to protect the fruits of Tali's life, to ensure the long-term peace of humanity and blood, and the unity and stability of the Cursed Lands?"

"No, it's not fair to them!" Antonio turned around and gently pushed Rogge away and said, "I can't bury my love with Tali with a fake political marriage, and at the same time disappoint Elizabeth's heart, I read her reply, I can understand her emotions from it, she doesn't just use it as a condition for peace talks!"

"That's why you should accept it!" Rogge leaned forward without flinching, looked into Antonio's eyes and said, "Elizabeth can admire very few men, she has given you trust, you shouldn't let her down!

Antonio turned around and bowed his head and sighed silently, Rogge silently watched his back, and suddenly heard a series of rapid knocks on the door, and a blood scout hurriedly came to Antonio's side and knelt down and reported: "Your Majesty, border emergency!"
