When the maid took Rosen to cabin three, Rosen had already learned from the maid the reason for the opposition of the noble mages.

It turned out that this was the first petrified giant ship built by the Duke of the East with a huge amount of money, and the purpose of sailing to the Golden Lake was to show the strength of the East.

To put it bluntly, it's showing off.

Among them, cabin 1 is the most luxurious, and the duke uses it for his own use. Cabin 2 was occupied by Princess Heya Jiali. Cabin 3 is next door to cabin 2 and is reserved for the most distinguished guests.

And those noble mages, who were nominally the retinue of Princess Heyagari, were actually candidates for the princess's future husband.

If there are no accidents, the princess's husband will be chosen from among the noble mages with the highest status and the most outstanding magical achievements.

Rosen's unexpected arrival, coupled with the princess's obvious attention, immediately stimulated the male mage's instinct to protect their sweethearts.

Coupled with his status as a mage in the north, he suddenly became a public enemy.

"I'll just say, provoking the princess will be a lot of trouble. It's only been a few minutes since I got on the boat when I got into trouble with a bunch of flower knights. ”

Heya Jiali is indeed a peerless beauty, but he really has no great interest, and if it weren't for Gdrak's words, he would definitely stay away from her in a whole college meeting.

But now, he had to think carefully about his relationship with Heya Jiali.

The maid's voice interrupted his thoughts.

"Master, do you need a bath?"

Rosen looked down and saw a large petrified bathtub by the large window of this spacious cabin, with a leather plug on the side of the bathtub.

Obviously, as soon as the plug is opened, clear water will flow.

Lawson drove all the way to Sky One, and he was indeed a little tired, so he just took a hot shower to get rid of his fatigue.

"Yes."

I took off my leather jacket and threw it on the coat rack, and sat on the cowhide bench unique to the East, and I felt that I was sitting, very similar to the high-end sofa in my previous life.

Once you're seated, move on to the questions you asked you.

"I have a wife and children, and I am still a mage in the north, so it is obviously impossible to marry a princess, at most I can develop a lover relationship."

"But the lover's relationship is too fragile, and if you are not careful, it will be gone. It's also difficult to get much help from this fragile relationship, let alone gather the power of the East to build a large floating city. ”

"What's more, the princess may not be willing to be my lover, and if I don't get it right, I will offend the duke, so there is no great future in the relationship between men and women."

"Well, there's only one other way."

That is to find a way to develop in the East, and gradually climb to a high position, such as becoming the duke's first minister of magic, then it is possible to convince the duke to support his plan.

But in this way, even if the Great Floating City is built in the end, it is the Duke's Great Floating City, not his.

Obviously, the Holy Spirits don't care about the belonging of the Floating City, they just need the Floating City to stimulate the development of magic.

Therefore, Rosen is the only one who really cares about this problem.

Rosen also does not ask himself to become the absolute controller of the Great Floating City, not that he does not want to, but it is impossible in the short term.

Because he is too weak at the moment.

His minimum requirement was to enter the highest decision-making level of the Floating City.

For example, he can occupy one seat in the seven-seat Supreme Council.

Otherwise, if you are busy making wedding dresses for others, what is the difference between you and a fool.

"What to do?"

I can't think of a good way, and I don't have much information at hand, so let's take it one step at a time.

The maid's voice came: "Master, the water is ready, the temperature is 40 demi, let me serve you to bathe, right?" ”

Rosen turned his head to look at the maid and saw that she was about twenty-three or four years old, with a good face and a slender figure.

When he said this, his expression was natural, as if he was asking him if he needed a meal.

This is also very normal, the maid of the big noble family is the vassal of the master. For the host's guests, it is unconditional obedience, and you can do whatever you want to them.

It is naturally good to have someone serve the bath.

Lawson also became a nobleman, and he had an in-depth understanding of aristocratic etiquette, so he didn't squirm at this time, walked to the bathtub and stood, stretching out his arms.

And the maid skillfully undressed him.

When he was naked, Lawson stepped into the bath and lay down, and the maid brought a small wooden stool, sat down by the bathtub, and bathed him with a pair of delicate and delicate twigs.

Lawson lay on his back in the bathtub, enjoying the service while looking out of the large glass window.

The glass is a one-way transparent magic glass, and you can see the scenery from the outside, and it is dark from the outside.

Through the large glass window, you can see the residents on both sides of the canal running out, curiously looking at the first petrified ship on the golden land.

Rosen also carefully examined the outer wall of the petrification ship, and found that there were two types of high-level petrification used throughout its body.

One is the extraordinary petrification of steel, which is used to create skeletons, and the other is the ordinary petrification, which is used to create walls.

So, strictly speaking, this is a ship with steel for bones and clay for meat.

A little estimation shows that the difference in weight of this ship is more than 7,000 tons, and at least half of it is steel.

"Even in the east, it's probably not easy to get so much steel out at once."

"I heard that the Duke of Eastern Storm has a fairly easy-going personality and respects the mage, but he has a problem with great success."

I didn't have a big feeling for the word 'good joy' before, but now that I saw Duke Storm's actions with my own eyes, I immediately had a clear and concrete experience.

"It's really a lord who loves to toss, but fortunately, if you have money in the east, you should be able to hold on."

While thinking about it, he suddenly felt that the maid's hand was a little dishonest, and he looked down, but saw that she was looking at it carefully, as if she was checking his body.

There was something strange in his heart, but he was very healthy, and he was not afraid of any examination, so he didn't bother to pay attention to it.

Soon, after rubbing the front and back, after taking a shower, and then changing into soft and comfortable loose clothes, Lawson felt refreshed.

After cleaning the bathtub, the maid saluted Lawson and turned away.

Rosen had a feeling that Heya Gary should be coming over soon.

Sure enough, within ten minutes, there was a knock at the door: "Master, is it convenient for me to come in now?" ”

It was the voice of a maid.

"Come in."

At this time, it was already completely dark, and the spell crystal lamp in the cabin automatically lit up, illuminating the cabin as bright as day.

The door was pushed open, and the maid walked in with a dining cart, followed by a person, none other than Heya Jiali.

Instead of wearing a waistcoat and trousers, she changed into a thick cotton silk dress that is unique to the East, and a large part of her tightly tied hair was untied and a fluffy bubble ponytail was tied at the back of her head.

Rosen immediately stood up and saluted: "Your Highness, I salute you." ”

Heya Jiali smiled sweetly: "Is the master still satisfied with the living conditions?" ”

"Very satisfied, much better than I expected."

"Alright, sit down."

She herself sat down on a thick-leathered bench opposite Rosen, with a table in between, while the maid laid out all sorts of fine food.

"It's not easy to cook on the boat, let's eat some casually. Carrie also took this opportunity to ask you some tricks on the flow number. ”

Rosen naturally has no opinion.

After the maid had set up the food and wine, Heyagari waved her hand: "Okay, there is no need to serve here. Go and wait outside the door, and close the hatch by the way. ”

"Yes, Your Highness."

Soon, the hatch closes and the cabin becomes a separate space.

Heagary was visibly more relaxed, and with the help of a mage, she uncorked the bottle and poured herself and Rosen glasses.

"Master, try the jade wine that is a specialty of Angry Waves City."

Lawson observed the wine and found that it was emerald green, and there was a mellow aroma of wine, and with his dislike of wine, he also had the idea of tasting it.

I took a sip and found that the taste was silky, the taste was long and mellow, the alcohol content was very low, and it was very refreshing to drink, somewhat similar to wine, much better than moonshine.

"It's really good wine, thank you Your Highness for your hospitality."

Looking at the dishes on the table, they are all very exquisite.

There is a lot of seafood, such as fist-sized umami oysters, nearly a kilogram of prawns, emerald sea vegetables, and a thick soup like shark fin.

In addition, there are several dishes unique to the North.

"Master, I don't know if you can adapt to the seafood, so I've prepared some."

Lawson is not taboo, he is in excellent health all his life, and he loves to eat everything.

At this time, he was hungry, and there was no one around except the princess, so he said: "Your Highness, I have been on the road for a day, and my stomach is very hungry, if you don't mind, I will do it at will." ”

Heya Jiali's posture is also very casual.

She sat on the chair with her legs crossed, her upper body straight and slightly leaned back, one hand supporting the chair to maintain balance, the other holding the wine glass, and smiling softly.

"Driving away the maid is to let the master have a good meal."

Lawson took the mage's hand and began to feast.

After eating a few bites, he asked, "Your Highness, do you need me to peel some shrimp meat for you?" ”

"Okay."

Lawson used the hand of the mage, and while eating himself, he served Heya Jiali.

Heya Garrie was visibly hungry as well, and began to enjoy dinner, but with a slightly wilder move than Rosen.

She is much more reserved and elegant, and the etiquette training from childhood to adulthood has been engraved in her bones, and there is no need to pay attention, every move will naturally be revealed.

After eating half full, Heya Jiali really began to ask for advice on the flow of numbers.

Lawson listened while eating, and at the same time turned on the computing core, and when he finished listening, he was silent for a while, and then he would give the correct answer.

Heya Jiali asked five or six questions in a row, all of which were difficult problems encountered in daily study but could not be thought through, and all of them were solved by Lawson in a big way, with an average of less than 5 minutes per question.

When the question was over, Lawson also filled his stomach.

Heya Jiali recruited a maid, and after cleaning up the mess on the table, she was reluctant to leave and continued to ask for advice.

After getting along for a long time, Lawson was also much more casual, crossing Erlang's legs, one hand on the back of the chair, and the other on the sofa cushion, answering Heya Jiali's questions a little lazily.

I can feel that the other party's flow number level is already very high.

But compared to his wife, Thrandis, her level comes from hard work more than talent.

Thrandis is full of aura, and as long as Rosen gives her a start, she can immediately follow the train of thought and her rigorous thinking all the way down, and can deduce to a very profound point.

And Heya Jiali is obviously not good, and many problems seem a little clumsy in Lawson's opinion.

Everyone says that diligence makes up for mistakes, but that's not entirely true.

Assuming that the highest ability in a field is 100, then diligence can probably make up for 90.

The remaining 10 points will need talent support.

In the field of advanced mathematics, the requirements for talent are particularly high.

A lot of times, if it doesn't work, it won't work, and you can't think about it.

But if you see through it, you can't say it.

From time to time, Rosen also praised a few words, so as not to blow the princess's self-confidence.

However, although Heya Jiali is not talented in mathematics, her emotional intelligence is not low.

After less than 2 hours of getting along, I already felt Rosen's intentions.

She sighed lightly and asked, "Master, I'm stupid, right?" ”

Without waiting for Rosen to answer, she sighed again: "You don't have to comfort me, I'm really stupid. ”

"It's true in magic, it's true in mathematics. And I didn't really like it very much, just so that my father could continue to be proud of me. ”

"But many times, diligence seems to fail, such as the master's cliff, such as your flow number, which often makes me feel a kind of exhausting hardship."

After a few words, Rosen already understood Heya Jiali's situation.

"The Duke really wants you to break through the Master Cliff, right?"

"Well, although my father has never said it explicitly, he is constantly looking for various ways to assist me in breaking through."

"None of these measures worked, and I could clearly sense my father's hidden impatience."

Lawson understood, but felt that Heya Jiali had a little bit of a deep understanding of herself, after all, the two sides had only met for the first time.

He didn't have much to say, so he could only formulaically persuade him: "This matter can't be rushed, let it be." ”

When Heya Jiali heard this, she fell into a long silence and drank only one sip of jade wine.

Drinking and drinking, she seemed to have made up some kind of determination.

She said softly: "Master, the pressure from my father is getting bigger and bigger day by day, and I try my best to please him, but he is as unsatisfied as an earthly python. ”

"If the other subordinates lose their value, they will immediately be alienated by him. For me, distancing is not a bad thing. ”

"But I'm his daughter or the eldest daughter, and I can't be estranged, so I keep persecuting me."

"Over the years, I've been exhausted and I'm reaching my limit."

"Master, do you understand this pain?"

Rosen nodded slowly: "I can feel some of it."

Pressure from loved ones is often the hardest to bear.

Whether it is ardent anticipation, or silent silence, or verbal harshness, or even a sigh of disappointment, it can easily have a huge impact on the soul, and even make people feel suffocated.

The duke is so happy that he has invested countless resources in his daughter since he was a child, and he must be looking forward to reaping the rewards.

So, the pressure must be extraordinarily enormous.

I secretly said in my heart: 'It seems that every family has a scripture that is difficult to read. The princess of the Eastern Realm, who is high in the sky, also has huge troubles. ’

Heagari paused for a moment, staring only at Rosen.

After a few minutes, she finally spoke.

"Master, why don't you marry me?"

The voice is delicate, with a hint of exhaustion, a hint of begging, all of which have lost the majesty of the princess before.

Rosen was stunned and felt like he was having auditory hallucinations.
