Chapter 64: Fermentation

As soon as he returned to the dormitory, Gu Xiao saw the little princess Shirley running towards her, wearing deerskin boots on her white and delicate little feet, and holding a piece of letter paper in her hand.

"Brother Hamlet, Brother Hamlet, dear Joseph has written to me!"

Dear Joseph was referring to what Shirley considered to be the 'true son'.

The little girl's little face was flushed with excitement, like a pink plum blossom blooming in the snow in winter.

Gu Xiao turned over and dismounted, came to Shirley, took the letter handed by the little girl, and pretended to share her joy.

Flipping through the letter, the text on it has been automatically translated into Chinese.

I don't know if it's because Joseph's language skills are really so good, or because the translation has been beautified, in short, Gu Xiao also feels that this love letter is particularly moving when he reads it. Not to mention the little Shirley who was bombarded with countless love letters like this.

"I give my heart to the moon,"

"Let the Moon Be My Pigeon,"

"Tell her I'm not thinking about her."

"But the naïve moon is not willing to help me tell such a big lie."

……

"What do I love about you? I can't answer. ”

"Maybe it's a dance party one night,"

"Everyone looks at the men and women whirling under the incandescent light, except for you, who looks without warning at the corner of the dance floor."

"At that moment, you were like the brightest moonlight in the nine heavens,"

"Fall into my eyes, fall into my heart."

"My love is like a dumb fire under a glacier, a glance can spark a prairie fire."

"But the handfuls of seawater that I carefully picked up scattered without exception."

……

"I know I don't deserve you,"

"But I want to love you quietly,"

"Thank you for your gentleness,"

"Veil my unworthiness."

Such gorgeous rhetoric is piled up in a lot of love letters.

In Gu Xiao's opinion, this love letter is only of a very average level, at least he has no memories corresponding to the content of the love letter, and he can't get empathy at all.

But the little princess seems to be very addicted to it, and a good education has made her develop a natural appreciation for poetry, articles and those beautiful words from an early age. These beautiful sentences, as they like, just knocked on the heart of the little princess.

That night, after dinner, Shirley pulled Gu Xiao to tell the whole night about her acquaintance with 'dear Joseph'. In her mouth, it was a beautiful experience like a court story.

'The handsome uncle who was alone at the ball', 'Immersed in the pain of his deceased wife's death', 'Shirley and Joseph became each other's angels', 'Shirley used her love to help Joseph get out of the pain of his wife's death little by little'......

A very old-fashioned story in which the kind-hearted Princess Shirley becomes an angel who saves another man.

At an extremely coincidental ball, Shirley met Joseph, who had just died of his wife.

Shirley was extremely coincidental and similar to Joseph's deceased wife, and finally helped Joseph out of his grief-stricken memories by extreme coincidence.

Just three days after the ball of the encounter, Joseph coincidentally stepped out of the shadow of his deceased wife, and in just three days, he seamlessly transitioned from an affectionate mourner to a passionate suitor.

Today, only five days after they got to know each other, Gu Xiao took the love letter, feeling the passion contained in the beautiful rhetoric on the love letter, it was hard to believe that this could be written by a man who had just come out of the pain of losing his wife.

Looking at the sharp handwriting on the paper, if he hadn't told him the identity of the author beforehand, he would have even thought that it was the handwriting of a young man who had just fallen in love at the age of seventeen or eighteen.

Sealing the love letter that Shirley had carefully told him to keep before falling asleep, Gu Xiao got up from the dormitory and walked out of the door.

He seems to have a premonition of the future of this relationship, not simply pursuing and meeting the girl's wholehearted dedication, often only the scar of the girl's collision.

But he is powerless to change all this, and even has to be an accomplice in making it happen.

Because his mission in the first act is to defend this love that transcends age, class, and origin, even though he knows that it may not end well, but he has to witness the bitter fruit ripen and be swallowed by the little girl named Shirley.

……

The second day after Gu Xiao came to the plot world of "Snow White".

At today's court meeting, His Royal Highness the King was unexpectedly furious because of a private matter.

In fact, it can't be called a private matter, after all, Joseph, the king of that small country, has officially applied to the Duchy of York to marry the princess, and when a relationship is brought to the national level to be discussed, that relationship is no longer a private matter between two people.

At the council, the king loudly rebuked Joseph for his misdeeds and angrily threatened to send troops to wipe the small country off the map.

Princess Shirley, who was eavesdropping on the court discussion outside the palace, couldn't bear it anymore and broke into the palace directly, and had a violent conflict with His Royal Highness the King.

The father and daughter finally parted unhappily, and let the vassals of the principality see a big joke.

The queen can only wash her face with tears on one side, on the one hand, the husband she married and the country that gave birth to her, and on the other hand, her heart, her little baby. In the face of these two parties, the queen could not make a contradictory choice, so she could only water her bitterness with tears every day, silently witnessing the irreparable development of things.

After the court discussion, Princess Shirley finally calmed down and began to realize in horror that she seemed to be in trouble.

The wayward princess finally felt scared, and the love letters of the lovely people were still secretly delivered one after another.

She looked at the affection that spread between the lines, both sweet and anxious.

……

Gu Xiao came to the third, fourth, and fifth days of the plot world of "Snow White".

Gradually, different voices began to emerge from the principality.

From some restless vassals, rumors gradually spread that the king wanted to marry the princess and give a generous gift as a dowry.

At the bottom of the principality, among the vast number of citizens, the ignorant and ignorant people became the best soil for rumors to spread and ferment.

The rumor that spread from the subordinate quickly 'escalated' and 'evolved'.

Evolved from 'marrying a princess and giving a generous dowry' to 'marrying a princess and ceding the land'.

In order to satisfy the selfish desires of the wayward princess, the incompetent and stupid king wants to rule the whole world and cede half of the territory to a 'Archduke of York'. ’

Although such rumors can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye as absolutely lies and rumors, they cannot bear the low level of education of too many people, so they believe these rumors whose credibility is extremely worrying.

Gradually, under the impetus of an invisible black hand, the princess's wayward behavior is completely linked to the king's incompetence and stupidity.

Every time people talk about the princess's brainless actions, they curse the king's incompetence and stupidity.
