"Oh, so my practice has been very effective lately. Cohen took the knife and took the towel from the white shadow: "The practice is complete, and I am already looking forward to this trip...... But in your opinion, if we both go all out and leave no room for error, who will win and who will lose?"

"If you go all out, it's not a question of who wins and who loses. The crow didn't even think about it, and replied casually: "Judging from the current state, you can't block my first blow, and I can't prevent your counterattack, everyone is dead." ”

"Am I that good?" Cohen was surprised by this answer, "Aren't I even better than White Shadow?"

"Look at each other's strengths and weaknesses, at least you are stranger than the White Shadow. The crow stretched out his hand and grabbed the weapon rack more than ten steps away, and a long knife with a sheath on the rack bounced violently and flew straight into the crow's hand: "Feel your new knife." ”

The long knife spun in circles in the crow's hand, stopping with the hilt facing Cohen, a sequence of movements that surprised everyone, including Cohen. The crow's movements are easy and natural, and there is no difficulty at all. But this hand is not like martial arts, let alone magic, Cohen guesses, even if you look at the entire continent, no second person can do it.

"This hand is more handsome, let's talk about the trick. Cohen gripped the hilt of his knife and smiled, "I can trade things for you." ”

"Unfortunately, it's something you were born with. The crow replied lightly: "It's just like your mind, others can't learn it." ”

"This one is lighter, a little longer, and a little narrower than the original knife. Cohen nodded. No more dwelling on this issue. He pulled out his knife casually: "Hah." And gemstones...... Marfa, are you looking for me?"

"Yes, Your Majesty. Major General Marfa ran to the field in a few steps: "Our plan is going well, although they will not be able to come into contact with the 'Storm' until tomorrow, but the hidden personnel of various countries and even demon countries have been exposed one after another, and we have fully achieved the expected goal." ”

"Don't rush, take your time, let them get away for a while. His Majesty Cohen moved slowly. The long knife waved in his hand, dancing a strange set of combinations: "There is nothing else to do today, right?"

"Yes. The white shadow said, "Your Majesty, Bernie." Princess Ebbinghaus departs for the Riva Empire today, and you are going to see her off. ”

"Oh! I almost forgot about it. Cohen put the knife back in its sheath and threw it away, and the long knife flipped and fell to the knife holder in the same position as before the crow moved it: "It's about time after breakfast, we need to hurry." ”

"陛xià. Seeing Cohen walking by, the clerk hurriedly held the text with both hands: "What should I do with these papers......"

"Stop talking nonsense, I'll talk about it when I get back. "His Majesty Cohen with a white shadow. It's past the hall door.

Because of the special relationship with His Majesty the Emperor, the team escorting the little princess of the Riva Empire is very large. There were 20,000 guards along the route alone, and 3,000 elite guards were responsible for escorting the whole process. They waited at the army station thirty miles outside the holy capital, and His Majesty the Emperor wanted to send it, that is, the thirty miles away.

All the luggage and honor guards accompanying him were transported to the army garrison in the morning, and when His Majesty Cohen changed his clothes and rushed to the front palace, Princess Bernie, dressed in a men's knight's uniform and holding a horse whip, was surrounded by a group of female soldiers in military uniforms to say goodbye to the princesses. She wears a knight's hat on her head, and her hair is tied into a ponytail today, and although she doesn't wear makeup, she is particularly sassy. Seeing the emperor approaching, the mischievous Princess Bernie put her heels together and made a formal knightly salute.

"Yo, whose handsome boy is this?" said Cohen, standing in front of Princess Bernie, and quipped, "Honestly, is your lord's destructive dress today intended to kidnap our beautiful girls?"

"With this in mind, I want to lure the four imperial concubines home with me. Princess Bernie raised her head slightly, revealing a proud expression on her face: "It's a pity! I'm late, it seems that they all belong to each other." ”

"I am honored to know that my charisma is higher than Your Excellency. Cohen turned around with a smile and said to the four princesses, "Let's leave now, and I'll rush back for dinner." ”

"Be careful on the road, don't rush. Princess Feline took Princess Bernie's hand and whispered. "Remember the day we made an appointment and be sure to come. ”

"Thank you sisters, I won't forget jì, I had a very nice time here. Princess Bernie nodded: "When I return home and reject those pesky suitors, I will ask my father to come to Sibia for a long time." ”

Several ladies said goodbye, but Cohen, who was smiling on his face, was still sad about the princess's words to send the suitor, although everyone pretended not to care, but everyone knew that Princess Bernie could no longer pretend to be someone else...... Secretly smiling bitterly, Cohen decided at this time to speed up his pace of being a madman, after all, some things don't wait for anyone.

If the emperors of the empires were present at this time, and they could have predicted that what happened in advance after that had something to do with Princess Bernie's words, they would probably have used all their means to beg Princess Bernie to take it back!

After leaving the city, Princess Bernie, who had not said a word, rode ahead and led a long procession at a gallop. Cohen, who was following her horse, knew that she was depressed, and he didn't say anything to stop her, allowing her to vent her frustration with speed. Including the Guards, everyone rode a good horse that was one in a hundred, and the thirty-mile journey took only one-third of the time on weekdays.

The continuous army garrison was already in sight, and Princess Bernie brandished her whip and rushed to a small hill with the strength of her horse. Cohen made a gesture backwards, and the little black crow, who had long been accustomed to the leading position, stopped following the princess's mount and rushed up the hill with a shortcut, and the two horses stopped at the top of the hill almost at the same time.

"Brother Cohen's horse is also very personal!" Princess Bernie glanced at the little crow, and smiled reluctantly, "You are not allowed to bully my good horse, but she is a gentle young lady." ”

"This guy has been strong since he was a kid and won't suffer a loss, right?" Cohen patted the little crow on the neck. The little crow snorted a few times in agreement: "Bernie." After returning home this time. You have to be careful. ”

Princess Bernie looked up at Cohen with a confused expression and seemed to be a little confused about what Cohen was talking about.

"Although it's not a matter of Spia, because of your relationship, I also pay attention to the Riva Empire. Cohen sighed: "In the period since the end of the Great War of Gods and Demons, the situation in the secret of Kinshasa does not seem to be stable. ”

"Brother Cohen is too polite, where did this time just start. Princess Bernie stroked her mount. Looking into the distance: "Before the status of the crown prince was determined, this kind of instability had already appeared, although the eldest brother Courbet became the crown prince, but as several sisters got married one after another, this kind of thing became more and more intense. ”

"I've seen Prince Courbet, but I don't feel much other than that he's a little bit more elaborate. Cohen remembered his whitewashed face: "If he succeeds the emperor, nothing will happen, right?"

In order to appease several major forces in the country, my father married his three sisters to three families, but he did not expect it to backfire. Princess Bernie clutched a few strands of hair around her ears: "Because of the strange personality of the prince." The political desires of the three sisters are constantly expanding. This time, I asked me to go back to China to choose a husband, and I don't know how many insiders are involved. ”

"Did they plan it?" Cohen nodded, "Where do you want to marry you?"

"Of course, the farther away the better. Probably Tensey or Gallo. Princess Bernie suddenly turned her head and smiled, "If there is a way, they will definitely banish me to the edge of the sky, such as some corner of the Demon Alliance." ”

"Seeing that you are smiling so happily, you must have thought of a way not to be banished?" Cohen smiled back, "Do you want to start with your father?"

"Although my father and mother doted on me, it was more of a kind of guilt, because I was destined to be married far away, and this is my fate. In Riva, there is no family that can accommodate a princess. Princess Berne replied in a low voice, "I have had this consciousness since I was very young, but I tell myself that there are so many princes in the Alliance, and there will definitely be someone who is worthy of my life and worthy of my love." I pray to the God-King every day that he will come to me...... Finally, after a strange journey, I met this person, you don't know, how touched I was at the time. ”

"Although His Majesty Fichette was in a critical situation at that time, I was confident that he would survive those difficult days, and I, I would do my best to help him, as his wife, and even later against Riva's brothers and sisters. Crystal tears slid down the corners of her eyes, and Princess Bernie lowered her head: "However, the God King of Light has taken him from my life...... Perhaps the God King of Light was merciful to others, but cruel to me. ”

"It's none of the business of the God King of Light!" One of the things Cohen couldn't resist was his friend's tears, which were more magical than anything and enough to make him mess up, "Since you know this, why do you want to go back to China? With me here, no one dares to do anything to you. ”

"If I could do that, I wouldn't be myself. My father and mother gave birth to me and raised me, raised me and taught me, how can my daughter turn her back on them?" Princess Bernie looked at the sky: "It's one thing to not want to marry someone else, but it's another thing to have a heart for your father and mother. ”

"But if you go back, it's hard not to get married. Cohen got the point.

"I have decided not to marry, because my heart belongs to His Majesty Fischette and cannot be defiled by a second person. Princess Bernie looked at Cohen and smiled, "That's how I returned home." ”

"I see. Cohen held out his hand: "Hand over the dagger you are going to cut your neck." ”

"When am I going to cut my neck?" Princess Bernie said, shaking her cute little head and pretending not to care, "I can't bear it!"

"It doesn't matter if you plan to stab your heart or cut your neck, hand it over to me!"

After Cohen accentuated his tone, Princess Bernie took out a small dagger studded with diamonds from her cuff, looked at it in the palm of her hand, and then stubbornly threw it to Cohen.

"I know that with the dagger handed over, you still have a lot of ways to end your life. Cohen held the dagger and looked extremely determined: "But I want to sue you, as long as I Cohen." Al Kaida is still alive in this world, you don't need this thing, my sister will not be forced by anyone's will. Including me. ”

"You can protect me for a while. But you can't protect me for the rest of my life!" Princess Berne exclaimed, "Even if I survive this time, what about next time?"

"Not only am I protecting you, but you also have to try to protect yourself. Cohen smiled slightly: "Although I can't say anything to you now, I can be sure of one thing, if you end yourself like this, you will regret it very, very much, even if you become a soul, you will not meet someone...... Take this. ”

A piece of paper was handed to Princess Bernie. She asked, "What is this?"

"The people I put with you, these people will contact you when you return home. They can solve a puzzle for you, and of course, they can stop you from hurting yourself. Cohen replied, "This is my gift for you." ”

"What about this time? It's not something that can be solved in a single sentence......

"Rest assured, I promise in the name of the Fichette brothers that no one will be able to marry you. Cohen snorted coldly: "I will tell them very tactfully, don't think that my temper will get better when I become the emperor, a hooligan is always a hooligan." ”

"And big talk. Princess Bernee's affection was a little better: "I really don't understand where your faith comes from. ”

"Born like this, just as you are beautiful. Cohen bowed slightly: "My sister, remember my words, it is not just a comfort. Bon voyage. ”

Princess Bernie nodded wordlessly. The horse rushed down the hill. Cohen watched her go, and a strange feeling rose in his mind. It's as if something special is watching you from afar...... Looking around, I didn't find anything, but the feeling was getting stronger and stronger.

"Don't come with you. Cohen expected that something was wrong, and turned to Bai Ying and the others and said, "I'll walk around at will." ”

With that, Cohen rode the little crow towards a valley in the distance. It was a deep valley, the last branch of the only mountain range near the Holy Capital, and the scenery was good, but it was located close to the army garrison and was rarely inhabited. A small river flows through the verdant valley, and the shimmering silver water meanders all the way into the great river that surrounds the holy capital.

The green shade of the small river is continuous, the green hills in the distance are like corridors, and the green grass on the banks of the river is like greenery.

Riding his horse, Cohen slowly walked up the green side of the river, and the more he entered the valley, the more strange the strange feeling in his heart became, as if something was beckoning Cohen to approach the valley. But in this strange feeling, Cohen felt no trace of fear, and with it was only a strong doubt.

As the valley progresses, the river also makes a bend in the valley, where the crystal clear water merges into a small lake, the sound of gurgling water disappears, and the water surface is calm like a mirror, clearly reflecting the peaks on both sides. And once he arrived at this place, the strange feeling in Cohen's heart disappeared for no reason.

"Play by yourself and don't run too far. Cohen dismounted, patted the little crow on the neck, and walked along the water's edge.

The little crow hissed lightly and then rushed into the grass, opened its big mouth, and picked out the refreshing tender grass with its teeth, looking at it with a look of self-satisfaction, and I don't know if it understood Cohen's words.

Glancing around, Cohen caught a circle of subtle ripples waving on the water, and looking at the location, the place where there was movement should be behind the boulders on the opposite bank.

"Found it. A smile hung on the corner of Cohen's mouth, and he took two quick steps, leaping over the water of more than twenty arms like a bird, and then rising and falling several times in succession, and finally standing firmly on the mossy boulder—but after this series of extremely handsome movements, from movements to expressions, Cohen's whole body froze.

Time seems to stand still in this moment, but there are fish jumping on the water, and birds chirping in the mountains and forests......

Looking down from above, a young woman sits under the boulder. She has blonde hair, the ends of which are swaying slightly in the breeze, and she is wearing a very classical dress, half of which is smooth and round, and her shoulders are exposed, and the pure white dress sets off this fair skin even more attractive. The slightly tucked top reveals the beautiful lines of her upper body, while the wide hem of the skirt is evenly spread on the grass to hide her sitting posture.

She leaned down slightly, dipped the palm of her right hand in the water, and then gently lifted it up, letting the drops of water that reflected the bright sunlight condense on her slender fingers until they fell to the surface of the water, making an almost inaudible sound, and again and again, with pleasure...... I haven't seen her face yet, though. But in such an environment. Her unique beauty is enough to suffocate people.

"Look at you bouncing all the way here. It seems to be very energetic. The woman spoke as Cohen counted the drops to nine, but her gaze remained fixed on the tenth drop on her fingertips, "It's a good thing that you've been refining your martial arts for a long time." But why don't you change your child's temper? Jumping around all day long, not afraid that the temple priests will trouble you?"

"Hey, you said you haven't seen you for a long time. Why did you count me down as soon as we met?" Cohen smiled embarrassedly, and sat down cross-legged on the boulder with the black cloak behind him, "If any priest who doesn't have long eyes runs to complain, naturally there is a high-ranking friend who will take care of me, and after the matter is over, I will free my hands to slowly clean them up, and keep them for a long time." ”

"It's not good to rely on friends for everything, and besides, the temple is not under my control now, but I am idle!" the woman chuckled and took out a silk handkerchief. Carefully wiped the water marks on his fingers, "But, it's not impossible if you want to ask me for help." But how are you going to make me happy? ”

"It's hard to do, pleasing others is not what an emperor should do. Cohen unsheathed his saber and put it aside, and replied casually, "Besides, I never know your preferences, so you can't just be untargeted, and end up touching a gray nose!"

"What a bold man, he is disrespectful to the Protoss!" The woman raised her head, it was actually the Bright God Patriarch Princess, and with a grim expression on her face, she also reprimanded Cohen in her mouth, "Little Emperor Sibia, I don't salute when I see this princess!"

"Don't you come! This dress shouldn't be the eldest princess, right? she's obviously a maid!" Cohen jumped off the boulder and sat down beside Princess Lirita, "If you want me to salute, you should sit upright in the temple, put on a majestic posture, and keep your eyes on the torch." But since I came to this small valley to see the water droplets, it naturally means that my compliments are not uncommon!"

"It's a lot smarter to be the emperor. The frost on her face melted, and the eldest princess smiled slightly, "But you still have to sit away." ”

"No, it's too much to talk when you're far away, and it also seems that I'm very unfamiliar with the princess of the Divine Clan, isn't it?" Cohen stretched an exaggerated slump and leaned his back against the stone wall, "I'm also familiar with the surroundings of the Holy Capital, and I've seen this valley several times in and out, but I didn't know there was such a good place." It seems that the eldest princess is better than me, and you are very leisurely today!"

"It depends on the mood! Princess Lirita kept smiling, "My Emperor of Spia, you once invited me to visit the Sbia Empire, so my visit today is not sudden!"

"I'm not surprised by the sudden visit of the eldest princess, but I wonder how you summoned me here. ”

"It's a secret! As a woman, it's normal to have a little secret!" Princess Lirita stretched out her hand and played with a strand of long hair floating in front of her, "I was thinking of calling you out of the palace, but I didn't expect you to send a friend back to China, and it was thirty miles away, which saved me a lot of time...... Is your friend okay?"

"Okay, if what happened to her is good, then there will be no bad people in the world. Cohen's tone became cold, and he closed his eyes, "Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, you don't know that she is Fischette's fiancée! Even now, she still thinks that she is Fischette's fiancée, and this time when she returns home, there are a lot of suitors waiting for her." ”

"Cohen. Al Qaeda, Emperor of Spia. Princess Lirita looked at Cohen with her bright eyes, and the smile on her face faded a little, "Are you losing your temper at me when you speak in such a tone and attitude?"

"I don't dare to lose my temper, I'm just complaining. Don't say that I am the emperor of an empire, even a grass man has the right to complain. Cohen didn't care about the eldest princess's questioning, and replied lightly: "You know who I am, and I can only complain about these things in front of you." Those people in the temple are not qualified to listen to me, and His Majesty the God King is too far away from me. ”

"You've got a good plan, and you want to motivate me to complain to the Father? Princess Lirita looked away, pointed out the meaning of Cohen's words, and then whispered: "Forget about this matter! That is all in the past, as the king of a country, you still have a future, the future of the empire, and the future of the people." ”

"Forgetting the past means betrayal, and the scars in my heart will always be there. Cohen opened his eyes violently, a little excited, "It's too much to take the life of my best friend in front of my eyes! If you hate me, you can just come and kill me! Who would believe the nonsense of those people in the temple......"

"That's enough, look at what kind of body you look like now!" Seeing that Cohen became more and more excited the more he spoke, Princess Lirita raised her eyebrows, and repeated the trick, leaving Cohen speechless, "You can survive well, your family can survive, and even the Sibian Empire still exists, this is already a very lucky thing." You calm down. ”

With a flick of his fingers, a few drops of cold water fell on Cohen's face, but Cohen's eyes when he looked back at the eldest princess did not change in the slightest, he was still so proud, and it could even be said that he was unruly.

After staring at each other for a long time, Princess Lirita sighed in her heart, and there was a hint of melancholy in her eyes, and she took action to unravel the magic cast on Cohen.

"I understand that you have a grudge in your heart, but you should also think about my identity when you speak, just like your relationship with Fichette, the relationship between the princesses of the Protoss is also very good. Even you, I can't tolerate you saying something like that. Princess Lirita slowly stood up and walked slowly along the riverbank alone, "I didn't hear what you just said. (To be continued......)
