032 Brother and sister
Bruce Landon was a clever man, and he had been consulting with Wang for a quarter of an hour, and he had already written a long list of entries in the memo.
Elizabeth watched the two discuss several times and wanted to interject, but they were blocked back.
Finally, Bruce Landon put down the quill and looked at the memo on the table: "Well, that's pretty much it. Follow this and you should be able to make a perfect show. ”
As he spoke, he picked up the memo and handed it to the mage.
The mage took it and gave it a quick glance, handing it to Elizabeth.
Elizabeth read the memo, Bruce stood up and left his position, went to the wine cabinet next to him and took out the wine and glass: "Come, to celebrate the memorable collaboration, have a drink." This is sherry imported from Monrovia. ”
Wang took the glass and took a sip without hesitation.
Bruce watched from the side, and suddenly asked, "Can the prophecy mage feel that this wine is not poisoned?" ”
Elizabeth put down the memo and snapped up, "He's able to defend himself before my wanderer's loiterer puts the dagger to his throat." ”
"Your drow?" Bruce raised an eyebrow, "I'd like to dig him into my camp even more." ”
After saying that, Bruce took a long sip of wine.
Elizabeth then picked up the last cup Bruce had placed on the table and took a sip.
Bruce: "Cheers!" ”
Wang also raised his glass: "Cheers." ”
Elizabeth simply raised her glass in response.
After drinking, Bruce picked up the memo, took the candle velvet from the drawer, polished the flame, lit the memo, and threw it into the fireplace that wasn't burning.
When he had done this, he turned to the king and said, "Then let us begin." The first is your mission. ”
Wang nodded: "I know." That's how I took this scroll......"
He grabbed the scroll that released the seven-colored magic aura and held it to his chest: "I'll just take this ......"
"No, no, no, you can't take it. Elizabeth, who is your most trusted maid? ”
Elizabeth: "I don't trust any maid but Lady Melly. ”
"Really? It's okay to let Lady Melly take it, in short, you can't take it yourself, mage, you have to choose someone who will never tear the scroll apart. So saying, the second prince came to the door of the study, opened the door and shouted outside, "Casander, stand guard and hand it over to Kellerman, you go and give an order, so that Madame Merry can put down all the work she is doing and bring 20 maids to me." ”
Wang: "So Your Highness Bruce, you have your own thugs standing guard in your study at all times, right?" ”
"Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years." The second prince shrugged his shoulders, "I'm not like my sister, everyone loves me, and people and animals are harmless. Not to mention that, we had to be ready for the show before Lady Melly came, and it had to be realistic. Otherwise, with Mrs. Merry's old and spicy gaze, she would definitely see it. ”
The mage and the princess looked at each other, then nodded together, "We're ready." ”
A moment later, Lady Merry arrived with twenty maids-in-waiting.
As soon as she entered the door, Elizabeth said solemnly, "Aunt May, you are here." We have a very important matter now, we have to choose an open ...... in the castle Uh, come to you, king. ”
Wang's serious interface: "An open space that can roughly accommodate two hundred people. There needs to be enough tables in this space. We also need a hundred observers, a hundred stenographers, and enough servants to take care of the lives of these people for a week, plenty of food and utensils. ”
Lady Melly frowned slightly: "Such a big battle? What to do? ”
Wang: "We're going to use a scroll with spells that trace back to Mark, the spy's last six months.
"But the trouble with this spell is that he's going to present a bunch of inconsequential content, and the information we need will be mixed in. Someone has to write everything down and sift through it. ”
Lady Merry glanced at Her Royal Highness the Princess, and then at the Second Prince, and then nodded: "Understood, we will do our best to cooperate with you." However, it takes time to find so many trustworthy stenographers. Can you trust the people at the various chambers of commerce in the port? ”
The Lynlan River has a fairly good shipping capacity, and armed caravans crossing the shield road will sell their goods here, and the river merchants will take over and send them to all parts of the mainland. So Langdon City has quite a huge harbor area, just outside the outer city walls, along the Lyenland River.
In order to prevent banditry, the Chamber of Commerce of the Port District has jointly built a low wall to protect the Port District, which looks like a tumor growing from the main wall of Langdon City.
Minato has a large number of literate residents, who work there as clerks, transaction recorders, bookkeepers for money changers, and so on.
If you really want to talk about the literacy rate, maybe the port area is a little higher than the main city of Langdon City.
Faced with Mrs. Merry's question, Wang pretended to think for a few seconds and said, "You can invite them, but you need to find a guarantor." And cross-check to make sure no one is hiding the truth. In this case, the total number of stenographers will be doubled, can I leave it to you? ”
Lady Melly raised her head: "Of course. ”
"Then take me to the venue first. It's best to show me all the venues that might be useful. I have to look at the ballroom, the restaurant, and the chapel of the castle. ”
Lady Melly saluted: "Please come with me...... Wait a minute, why do you want me to call 20 maids? ”
Elizabeth replied, "As soon as we find a place, we will start to transform it into the state we need." My father already knew about this matter, and he was in a hurry. You also know that I'm in danger underground, and that someone wants to do it against Langdon. ”
Lady Melly nodded solemnly, "I see." Call us. ”
The king took the scroll, came to Lady Merry, took her hand and raised it to the height of his chest, and then placed the scroll on it: "Please take this scroll." This is a very precious scroll, and I only have one. When surveying the site, I have to use the magical aura emitted from it as a subject at any time. You have to keep it at this height and not shake it. ”
Lady Melly raised her head proudly: "Don't worry. Leave it to me. ”
The king made a gesture of please: "Lead the way, Lady Merry." ”
Elizabeth said the agreed line: "I have to settle other things with my brother, and the survey will be handed over to you, Wang." ”
The king looked back and gave a thumbs up.
Then he left with Lady Merry and a group of maids.
When only the brother and sister were left in the room, Bruce teased, "He actually put you here with me so relieved." What would happen to him if I were to become a kinslayer now? ”
"I think he expected you to not do it at all." Elizabeth was unmoved.
Bruce smiled slightly: "You trust him a lot." But also, the Drow Elves are experienced, but they don't care about anything other than keeping you safe. Cat Man – Named Michasara? The cat people like you very much, but only treat you as a little girl. And the fighters......
"I used to think he was your licking dog, but it turned out that he was a spy. And the barbarians, hum, the barbarians have no intelligence at all. You finally have someone who listens to you and wields superior wisdom for your goals, even if this person is a little insane.
"What a pity, my sister, if he were in my ranks, I would let his wisdom work to the fullest. He might be able to become the Prime Minister of the Empire! ”
Elizabeth shook her head slightly: "My dear second brother, you haven't won the throne yet, isn't it too early to think about competing for the emperor now." ”
Bruce sighed: "Sister, you don't know, the border between us and the Steyr Leader has been reported to be harassed by cavalry many times. Presumably the reconnaissance unit of His Majesty the Emperor. ”
Elizabeth frowned: "What? ”
"That's it. The Steyrs did not want to lose the Imperial Crown. Six of the twelve Electors supported us, the result of decades of operation by our father. That old fox wanted to wear the imperial crown a long time ago. This time, the matter of the Nelenes ring is fake from beginning to end. ”
Elizabeth's face turned pale: "You mean, the Emperor is going to use this to do something to us?" ”
"Isn't it obvious? The old fox did not distribute the benefits to level the water, so he will inevitably be in chaos when he dies. Unless he sends me to Lancelot's temple as a paladin and marries you, leaving only my brother. ”
Elizabeth seemed to be amused by Bruce: "You're still a paladin." ”
Bruce: "Actually, it's okay for a warrior monk, but you don't have the right to inherit it anyway." My sister, if I were you, leave this land of right and wrong now. Sixty years of peace in Langdon, it's almost time for the war to begin. ”
Elizabeth: "You forget, I still have an end of life to deal with. ”
Bruce let out a hearty laugh, "yes, you still have an apocalypse to deal with. ”
