055 Sichun Girl, Ronald's Troubles.
"Alright. ”
After a busy middle of the night, Anina finally put Ronald in a bandage. Looking at his strong physique, a touch of shyness couldn't help but float to the heart of the young girl.
Ronald noticed the flush on her face. He wasn't stupid, and he didn't know what to say when he understood why, so he just pretended not to see. He stood up and thanked him, and looked out the window at the morning light, deliberately avoiding the shy gaze.
At this moment, it was the time of dawn, and the morning sun was scattered and fluttered under the refraction of the dewdrops. The crimson morning sun on the horizon gradually rose with a faint mist and translucent clouds, spreading warm sunlight inside and outside the castle.
"Ronald. ”
Annina's tone was unusually twisted. Ronald couldn't help but chuckle inwardly, but he still turned his head with a smile in his eyes: "What's wrong, Annina?"
"Father said that if this place was stable, he could find a place nearby to build a mage tower. ”
"Oh. ”
After a moment of silence, Anina plucked up her courage: "Uncle Bruno should also find a place to build a laboratory, so what do you want to do?"
Ronald felt that he was suddenly unable to answer the question, and he glanced at Anina and noticed that her eyes were a little flickering.
Seeing that Ronald was silent, Annina said tentatively: "I heard Uncle Bruno say that my father advised you to go to his mentor?"
"Hmm. Ronald finally spoke: "Kerry has said before that his mentor is well-informed, and if I want to find out the cause of my amnesia, he can write me a letter." ”
"Are you going to go, then?"
Ronald shook his head: "I don't have this plan yet. He suddenly turned his head and told Anina what he thought: "The past doesn't matter, as long as we live well now, no." ”
"That is, you don't plan to leave Falken?"
"What's wrong, Annina?" Ronald smiled, a little puzzled, "The situation is unstable now, and I don't have any plans for this for the time being." ”
Anina suddenly walked out quickly, and her face returned to her usual liveliness: "Okay, you are all injured, so rest early, I'm tired too." ”
Syllable.
She gently closed the door.
Looking at her departing back, a hint of elusive color flashed in Ronald's eyes. No matter how dull he is, Ronald will not be ignorant of her feelings.
That guy is getting me in a lot of trouble.
In desperation, he smiled wryly and put all the blame on his partner. After sitting quietly for a while, he went out of the window again and observed the surroundings.
Last night's corpse had already been disposed of, and along the way, many soldiers of the city guard loyal to the royal family were carrying buckets of water, washing the blood stains on the outer wall of the castle with clean water. Squads of swordsmen, with white handkerchiefs strapped to their arms, patrolled the narrow corridors, carrying amnesty warrants issued by the princess and posting them as they went.
The sun was rising, and the air was baked with a faint smell of blood.
Unlike before, it was already past eight o'clock, but the streets were very deserted. The occasional civilian, who saw the patrolling swordsman squad, retreated back into the room like frightened birds.
He couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the terrified civilians, and then his eyes became determined and determined.
Strength, without power, I'm just one of them.
Taking out his coat from the spatial ring and putting it on, he walked out quickly. After asking the guards, he went to the princess's makeshift office.
Tuk tuk.
"Your Highness the Princess. ”
Hearing Ronald's knock on the door, Victoria answered, "Come in." ”
Pushing open the door, Ronald saw that the mages were all there, Victoria had changed into that armor, and the stereotypical deputy head of the Knights of the Wind was also impressively listed. In addition, there were three non-commissioned officers he did not recognize.
"You're here. Seeing Ronald enter the house, Victoria looked up and smiled as a greeting, and then continued with her: "Deputy Head of Lardo, tell me about the situation on your side." ”
Glancing at Ronald, the deputy head of the regiment made a knightly salute: "Yes, Your Highness Princess." ”
"According to His Majesty's will, the rebellion order is going well. One hundred and twenty rebel knights, all but nearly twenty knights led by Mittler escaped, and the rest were all subdued. He paused, and his tone became low: "In the process of suppressing the rebellion, the total number of dead on both sides is eighty-three, and fifty-one are seriously wounded. ”
"The remaining thirty-two rebel knights surrendered. He asked the princess for advice: "May I ask Your Highness, what should we do with these rebel knights who have surrendered?"
Without thinking about it, Victoria blurted out: "Put yourself in prison for the time being, and then discuss it after Fort Orleans has completely calmed down." ”
"Yes, Your Highness. Lardo saluted again, and quietly stepped aside.
Victoria continued, "How's the City Guard?"
Blair hurriedly bowed: "At present, the streets are already being cleaned, and due to the prestige of the captain of the Oakland Guard, most of the soldiers have not resisted. ”
"That's good. The princess nodded, her face finally softened: "After all, we are all Falkens, and if we can solve it without bloodshed, of course it will be the best result." She turned her head to one of the Master Chiefs, "Thank you, Captain of the Auckland Guard." ”
The master chief hurriedly bowed: "It is my honor to be able to serve His Highness." ”
After thinking about it, she asked again: "What about the nobles?"
"Most of the nobles at the dinner took the initiative to stay at the castle and wait to make a gesture of favor to you. Blair thought for a moment: "We have roughly counted that there are probably seven or eight nobles who are not among them. As for the detailed list of personnel, the time is in a hurry, and it cannot be handed in statistically for the time being. ”
The princess frowned slightly: "Those who left quietly should be loyal to Herrington, right?"
Blair pinched his mustache: "I guess that's the case." ”
"Uncle Blair, I'll leave it to you to appease them. The princess sighed slightly, stood up with her hands on the table, and her eyes instantly sharpened: "So, do any of you know the most likely hiding place for Herrington in Fort Orleans?"
The master chiefs bowed their heads.
Seeing their expressions, Victoria also understood that there could be no news for the time being.
"Okay, we've been fighting all night, let's go back and rest first. Be careful not to be too lax and keep the troops on the defensive. She just wanted to raise her hand to signal the end, and added: "Also, send more soldiers on the city wall to prevent Hairington's counterattack." ”
Lardo and the others nodded, and they all withdrew. Soon, Ronald and the others were left in the room.
The princess muttered for a moment, "As for you...... In addition to those previous requests, there are no other wishes. She paused: "Whatever is within my power, I will be satisfied." ”
Ronald didn't have much of an idea, and he turned his head to the mage.
The mage greeted slightly: "Now the situation is not stable, and the Turings have been eyeing each other. So, I don't have any plans to build the Mage Tower yet, but I hope you can help him build it soon. ”
Seeing the look of interest on the princess's face, the mage spoke his thoughts: "Building a mage tower is a matter of money, but building a laboratory doesn't cost much gold. He stretched out his finger and pointed to the bandage on Ronald's body: "Presumably, Her Royal Highness the Princess has heard Bruno mention this matter more or less before, and if his research is really successful, it will be of great significance to the army." ”
Victoria was silent for a moment, remembering what Blair had discussed with her that day.
Your Highness, although those three people are wanted by the church, they are all talents worthy of our recruitment. Especially that doctor, I had a few words with them last time, and if that experiment can really be successful, it will mean even more to us Falken than a ** master! That Bruno and Ronald are very straightforward people, and Your Highness, you must also be sincere to them.
Seeing that the princess was silent, the mage Christine asked softly, "Her Royal Highness the Princess?"
After coming back to her senses, Victoria nodded seriously: "Indeed, if we can quickly heal soldiers without using magic, it will indeed give us a great initiative in future battles." ”
She picked up a quill pen and wrote a string of beautiful characters on the paperwork, then took out a seal from the ring and lightly stamped it.
She reached out and handed it over: "Alright, with this paperwork, you can choose to set up a laboratory anywhere in Fort Orleans." After seeing the mage take it, she continued: "As for money, you can also take it to the treasurer. She looked around at the three of them with a sincere expression: "If someone doesn't meet your request, call him to come to me!"
"Oooh oh. Bruno couldn't wait to take off the felt hat and bent down happily: "Then thank you for your strong support, Your Royal Highness!"
Seeing his exaggerated appearance, the princess couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth: "Mutual help, Mr. Bruno." If the experiment is successful, I'll have to ask you to give me a discount. ”
"Hahaha!" Bruno laughed heartily, "No problem!"
"Okay, I'm a little tired too, if I don't have anything else to do, let's rest for a while. The princess instructed one of her attendants: "Arrange a room for them." ”
After the crowd bowed, they left quietly under the guidance of the attendants. However, after being taken to the arranged room, Ronald had no intention of sleeping.
Tuk tuk.
He ran to knock on Bruno's door: "You haven't rested yet, have you?"
"Oh, come in. ”
Seeing Ronald's troubled look, Bruno was very curious: "You kid, what's wrong?"
Ronald was about to speak.
"What are you rubbing, just say it if you have something to say, you kid!"
Sighing, Ronald spoke out his emotional troubles.
Ha ha!
Bruno burst out laughing.
Seeing the dissatisfaction in Ronald's eyes, he quickly stopped laughing and patted him on the shoulder seriously: "Didn't I tell you, don't look at that guy Kerry who is as thin as a side rib, Annick can be regarded as a big beauty." ”
Ronald yelled, "Hey, you know I didn't mean that. ”
"Don't be afraid, I've heard that there is an Alpha Empire in the eastern desert of Jago, where it is legal for nobles to have multiple wives. Or, when the situation is more stable, you will go there and get a nobleman?" gave Ronald a bad idea, Bruno squinted his eyes slyly: "Even in Falken, it is no problem to raise two more mistresses, if anyone dares to disagree, use your sword skills to persuade him." ”
"Hey, hey. ”
He suddenly leaned closer to the silent Ronald: "yes, I almost forgot, my lovely niece is fine." However, I heard that someone ...... that Valken's pearl," he deliberately elongated his tone: "Strong, up, heart." ”
Seeing that Ronald still didn't speak, he deliberately pretended to have a sudden realization expression: "Are you afraid that Kerry guy will object? I bet that guy has absolutely no opinion!"
Ronald waved his hand stupidly: "Forget it, I can't tell you clearly." ”
Bruno smiled evilly at the back of Ronald who turned away: "Young man, don't always be sad, take the initiative!"
Call.
On Ronald's body, several ice blades suddenly spun out, and the air became cold in an instant.
Bruno hurriedly jumped to the side: "Oh oh oh, when I didn't say it, you stinky boy!" Having said that, the blonde laughed louder and louder: "Hahaha!"
Bang!
The door frame was shaken out and trembled.
Looking at his back as he departed angrily, Bruno kept blinking, pinching his sleek chin and laughing.
