Chapter 118: The Royal Dinner
Chapter 118: The Royal Dinner
When Linya arrived at the council chamber on the top floor of the main castle, she was met by the Secretary of State Deakens, coming out of it. Dickens hurriedly saluted the princess. "Good afternoon, Your Highness Princess. ”
"Good afternoon, Lord Earl Deakens. Have you just met your father?" Linya replied.
"Yes, Your Highness Princess. However, His Majesty the Emperor seemed to be very tired and was about to go to rest. ”
Do you look tired? It must be tired, the body that has been suffering from hard work has not had a chance to take a good rest recently, and it's not all because of myself. Whenever she thinks of this, Linya can't help but blame herself.
Linya poked her little head out of the door and peered into the small room where her father was napping, where Emperor Hermann was lying in a soft chair with his eyes closed.
Emperor Hermann and Empress Isabel had already decreed that the little princess must be introduced at once if there was any matter, no matter what the circumstances, even the most important military meeting, and the affairs of the little princess, no matter how big or small, were the most important things. So Linya is now unimpeded anywhere in the castle.
The guard at the door looked at the little princess with strange behavior.
Linya really didn't want to disturb his rest. But I can't bear to leave like this. In his sleep, he was still touching his sore shoulders with his hands.
Linya was distressed to see it.
It was indeed very hot, and the two attendants were fanning the cool breeze vigorously against the two large ice blocks, but beads of sweat continued to pour from the top of the head of the Herman Emperor.
This method of cooling down is far from sufficient.
Linya crept in. The two attendants hurriedly tried to salute, but Linya stopped them, put their index fingers to their lips, and made a silent gesture with a shush.
Unfolding the magic force field, starting to summon the water elemental spirits, and then using condensation to scatter the water elemental balls in the room and turn them into countless ice cubes, freezing all the curtains and walls and other things, and hanging a lot of ice from the roof, this is a good way for Linya to cool herself down. Seeing this, the two attendants waved large fans to speed up the circulation of air, and the temperature in the room quickly dropped.
Linya walked to her father's side, looking at his haggard face, Linya felt sad for no reason. I really wanted to ask about his condition, but I couldn't help it. He didn't dare to ask anyone, because if he did, his father would immediately know that he was sick, and that would surely make him uneasy.
He didn't want himself to know, so he deliberately hid himself, and he didn't want to make him sad, so he pretended not to know. Although she knew that this might be a well-intentioned deception, Linya was still often confused. Why deceive each other? Wouldn't it be better to be honest with each other? But the subconscious mind told her very clearly: it was the right thing to do. So, they cheated on each other like this.
The human mind is a mysterious thing.
Linya walked up to Emperor Herman's side, crouched down, pressed her hands on his shoulders, and gently kneaded him in Susanna's way. On weekdays, Suzanne often massages Linya, her massage technique is really unique, and the strength is also appropriate, and every time she will press Linya to a comfortable and direct call. Slowly, Linya also gradually learned a few hands.
I've never eaten pork, and I've never seen a pig run. I guess that's what I said. The more I watched, the more I learned.
I don't remember exactly, but I think I guess I haven't seen a pig run, and I haven't eaten pork? Anyway, that's pretty much what it means. For the little princess Linya, the chance of eating pork is indeed far greater than seeing a pig run.
Emperor Herman, who was half-asleep, hummed softly and comfortably, and Linya pressed it even more diligently.
However, Emperor Hermann soon woke up and opened his eyes to see his daughter beside him.
"Hmm, Linya, when did you come?" came a soft feeling from her shoulder, "It turns out that Linya is your ......"
"I just arrived, Father. You must be very tired, go ahead and rest!" Linya felt very guilty when she saw that she had woken up her father.
My daughter is really getting more and more sensible, and she's getting more and more filial. Emperor Hermann was extremely pleased.
"Ah, I'm not sleepy, I just lay down a little bit about nothing. Emperor Hermann lied again, but he soon discovered the ice hanging in the room. "What's going on? Linya, did you put it?"
Linya nodded. "It's easy to learn water magic, freezing, from Gandra Sensei. ”
Emperor Hermann soon noticed the cool temperature in the house and understood her intentions. Emperor Herman sat up from the soft chair, frowned, and said, "Linya, although I am not a magician, I have also heard that the magic power of a magician is very precious and cannot be wasted casually, how can you waste it on such a meaningless thing?"
"I don't think it's pointless...... "Besides, this magic has been released, can it be taken back?"
Emperor Hermann thought that his daughter was kind after all, and he couldn't bear to accuse him anymore, so he sighed and said, "Okay, don't talk about this." Linya, is there anything you have to do with this time?"
"It's a bit of a thing...... On the Golden Maple Festival on September 15 this year, the National Day, is my father ready to gather all the lords back to the capital to gather and celebrate?" Linya thought for a moment and said.
"Why gather the lords if there is nothing important?" said Emperor Herman, puzzled.
"National Day can be celebrated in a grand way...... Besides, this time it may be against the Holy See, so it would be better to gather the lords to appease the subjects beforehand. Besides, don't you want to publicize my identity as the goddess of the moonlight, just take this opportunity to introduce my identity to everyone!" Linya began to ramble on and on for reasons.
"Well, that makes sense. Emperor Herman pondered, "Linya, after all, you still want to change the system of succession to the throne, right?" Emperor Herman directly pointed out Linya's intentions.
Linya blinked, it seemed that her every move, as well as the thoughts in her heart, were really difficult to hide from this father, even if she was as close as Namia and Susanna, she couldn't hide her secret in front of him.
There is no way to do that, who calls himself the emperor's father, no one can have the courage and will to hide anything about himself from him. Namia and Suzanne can't be blamed for this, they are also doing it for their own good.
"Not really. Father, in fact, I have thought of a way to improve the way of succession competition without changing the system of succession to the throne, so as to avoid bleeding and killing and wounding myself!"
"What's the solution? "Emperor Hermann was interested.
"Not yet, I'm going to be ready to sue you. But now, let's gather the lords from all over the world to come back, don't worry, Father, I won't mess around. Linya said confidently.
"Really, Linya, do you promise you won't mess around?" Emperor Herman was a little apprehensive about the eccentric daughter's ability to cause trouble.
"Absolutely not! Believe me, Father, it's not about changing the system of succession to the throne, but about making some improvements on the basis of the existing system of blood competition to reduce casualties! Linya said very seriously.
"Oh well. Although this little daughter is rude and willful, she does have the wisdom of God, and it doesn't hurt to listen to her actions, just pay attention to the point at all times.
"One more thing...... Father, I'm a little tired, so I want to rest early, so I won't go to the banquet tonight......" Linya said with an unnatural expression.
At the dinner party, I will definitely see that nasty guy again, disgusting little white face.
Worse still, the event after the dinner, the prom. That nasty guy is definitely coming to pester himself.
It's really annoying, and there's no way to refuse. Promise him? That's just a hell of a thing! The thought of having the guy put his arm around her waist made Linya feel sick to her stomach. That kind of guy was supposed to fly to the sun with a kick and evaporate.
So make excuses to run away.
"Is this an excuse?" Emperor Hermann mercilessly exposed his daughter's mind and lies. "Still hate that guy from Lotte, right?"
Linya blushed embarrassedly.
"Well, well. Linya, don't do anything to force yourself. Go and rest, you're tired these days, too. Just have fun. Emperor Hermann sighed, and agreed to his daughter's request very easily.
Linya was a little stunned. His original plan was not like this, but he couldn't help but be emotional, only taking care of his own thoughts and personal thoughts, and completely ignoring the overall situation.
If you don't go, the people on the side of the Bright Moon Empire will definitely have an idea. Now is the time to take advantage of them, to stabilize them, to maintain a good relationship between the two parties, to make the Lady Rofitte think that there is still a chance to pursue him, and even to make them feel that this marriage is still possible.
For this, they will have to sacrifice some "hues" to confuse them. Is this the price to pay for getting into trouble on the spur of the moment? Who is to blame?
"Forget it, I'd better go. Linya shook her head and said. Now is the critical time, and we can no longer be selfish and willful.
Emperor Hermann was stunned. This daughter is indeed getting more and more weird, one moment she becomes a wayward child, and the next she is fully mature. I don't know what she's going on in her head all day......
Is it so strange for girls of this age......
"Ah, wait, Linya!" When he saw his daughter walking out depressed, Emperor Hermann suddenly remembered something and stopped his daughter.
"What's wrong, Father?"
"What just happened...... Thanks, Linya. The massage is very comfortable!" Emperor Hermann reminisced about the feeling just now, and his mood was very sweet.
"Hehe, I accidentally learned a little bit from Susanna. ”
When she returned to the dormitory and was about to change into her evening dress, Linya suddenly remembered something. To be precise, a person comes to mind, dear Sister Alice. If you take her along, you might be an invincible shield! Sister Alice is so beautiful, she will definitely stun those men, and then she can hide behind her and snicker.
Well, good idea. Linya changed her clothes and hurried over.
"No, I really won't socialize......" Alice smiled wryly. After leaving the palace for so long, she was left with only the title of a princess. The life of the aristocracy was already only a memory for her, and she had learned to live independently and independently over the years.
But Xiao Linya kept twisting her body coquettishly in her arms, looking pitiful and cute with tears in her eyes, so that she couldn't bear to refuse.
"Sister Alice, how can you say that you are also my godsister now, the goddaughter of my father, and the princess of the Red Leaf Empire! How can you hide in the room alone and not come out when a guest comes? And as a princess, it is completely necessary to make more friends! Maybe you can help return to China to inherit the throne in the future!" Linya can always find all kinds of unreliable reasons randomly.
But Alice was the listener's intention, and what she said was not entirely unreasonable. "Okay, I'm going with you, I'm really scared of you, little girl. ”
"That's great, Sister Alice is so nice!" Linya said, quickly kissing Alice on the face, and then quickly retracted her head.
It was also imperative to change the attack strategy. Because if you fall into a protracted war and an in-depth war, it is very likely that you will be pushed back and taken advantage of. Therefore, the speed of taking advantage must be fast, and the speed of retreat must be faster. Otherwise, it won't be good if you get caught.
Tianfeng Castle, the extravagant and gorgeous banquet hall, the large royal restaurant that can accommodate thousands of people is now crowded and lively. People take this opportunity to get acquainted with the nobles who claim to be noble, talk and laugh, and the ladies and ladies walk through the crowd like flowers and butterflies, taking the opportunity to show off their beautiful clothes and jewelry and beautiful faces, a rare event.
"Ah, my dear Claire, what a pleasure to see you!" When Emperor Hermann finally appeared in the hall with Empress Isabelle's hand, he greeted Emperor Claire like a long-lost friend, and the two embraced each other intimately.
"Long time no see, Herman, my dear friend!"
If you don't know the inside story, you will definitely think that these two people are long-lost brothers.
"yes, it's been a long time! I remember the last time we met, it was twenty years ago!"
"Time flies so fast, in the blink of an eye, we are all getting old, hehe!" The two of them reminisced about the old as if no one was around, and they didn't pay attention to the people around them.
"Ah, beautiful Queen Isabel, you are getting younger!" Claire complimented sensually without hesitation.
The aristocrats of the surrounding two countries also took the opportunity to pat themselves on the back. It's nothing more than the old friendship of the emperors, the empress is getting more and more beautiful, the relationship between the two countries is becoming more and more harmonious and friendly, peace and friendship are eternal, and so on.
The Red Leaf Empire and the Bright Moon Empire seem to have turned into a family with Hemeimei overnight.
But the crowd at the entrance on the other side suddenly stirred.
"Who is this beautiful young lady?" the people marveled at her unparalleled beauty.
"Her Royal Highness Princess Linya is truly beautiful!"
"What a beautiful blue hair, shining like a jewel!"
"Blue Star, Princess Alice!" someone finally recognized.
Yes, Golden Rose, Blue Star. The two stunning beauties of the Violet Continent appeared together.
