Volume III, Chapter 14

"Okay, here's the announcement and the badge of my Sisoka family. The baron also made sure with his eyes that it was indeed a female officer approaching the carriage behind, and then turned back and said, "Mr. officer, I hope to be on the road sooner." ”

"Okay, we'll do our best. Although he was unhappy, the officer smiled.

The two elves approached the carriage behind them, and the guards beside the carriage had already been pushed aside by the others.

"Excuse me, routine check-up. The elf called Dana knocked at the door and said, "Ladies, open the door." ”

The car door opened, a waitress squatted by the door in horror, an elderly lady sat calmly on the back seat, and the two gorgeously dressed girls in the front seat hugged each other, and the younger one hid her head in each other's arms.

"Don't be nervous, we're the disciplined Dark Province Guards. Dinah smiled and said in a pleasant voice, "Madame, can you know your name?"

"Yes, Miss. When the noble man saw that it was a female elf, most of his worries had gone: "I'm Karon." Baron Siso's wife, you can call me Conrad. Mrs. Siso. ”

"And what about these two young ladies?" asked the elf with her hand raised.

"It's my two nieces, my husband's brother, Dulang. Daughter of Count Siso. ”

"Two young ladies, can you raise your head and let me see?" The female elf smiled apologetically at her husband, "I beg your pardon, it is my duty to make sure every nobleman who leaves the city." ”

The two girls slowly raised their heads, and when they saw the face of the female elf, they exclaimed in a low voice at the same time: "It's an elf!"

"Alright. The check is complete. Miss Dinah saw two "daisies" as she wished. Nodding his head, he said, "Excuse me." Please close the door. ”

After the examination was completed, Caron. Several carriages of Baron Siso's were cleared...... When the carriage carrying the ladies passed, the elf in charge of the inspection clearly heard the conversation between the two sisters and their aunt in the carriage.

"Auntie, that elf is so beautiful, are all female elves so beautiful?"

"Auntie, why is there a female elf in the army of the Dark Province? her military uniform looks so imposing, can we make such a riding uniform?"

Dinah sighed secretly, what a girl of the age of the flower season! It's a pity that as soon as they are born in a noble family, they will inevitably be involved in politics. Master Cohen. What do you want to do with these girls? Poor people, they don't have any sin in them, please don't hurt them......

On this road, except for a merchant pretending to be a nobleman, a total of thirty-two nobles' carriages passed that day, eight of which had a total of ten "daisies", and these carriages with "daisies" were deliberately allowed all the way, and the carriages without "daisies" were troubled everywhere by the stragglers of the Dark Province, although the nobles waved the letters in their hands angrily, but they were still checked again and again. Even the wheels were removed for them to see......

As a result, when they arrived at a fork in the road. It was found that the road to the holy capital was no longer passable, and there was only a detour...... It's nothing, but it just takes three or five more days.

The other road was a smooth gallop for a day, and by noon, the horses were so tired that even the passengers in the car had a sore back and legs, and were clamoring to find a place to rest...... As a result, of the eight carriages, one was parked at the No. 1 Pavilion, two at the No. 2 Pavilion, and five at the No. 3 Pavilion.

There is no doubt that the hospitality at the hotel was very satisfying. The enthusiastic proprietors prepared hot water for the showers, had delicious meals and had enough room...... Even their coachmen were given a private rest.

The nobles have never lacked a sense of superiority, not to mention that they have also seen today that although the two sides are at war, they still respect themselves and the nobles.

So the gentlemen gathered in the hall of the hotel to sip wine and play cards, and the ladies folded their arms and talked about themselves in the side hall. As for those "daisies"...... Unmarried aristocratic girls had to strictly observe their schedules, so they had to drink a glass of milk and go to bed after the shower.

The next morning, Hotel No. 3.

Madame Sisoka was a competent elder, and the first thing she did when she woke up in the morning was to get dressed and see her two nieces...... Mrs. Sisoka was a little worried that this unfamiliar environment might interfere with the sleep of the two girls, who were about to hold a formal social ball as soon as they returned to their parents, and their faces were not good.

As soon as Madame Sisoka opened her door, she realized that something was wrongβ€”the guards who had been keeping vigil in the corridor last night had all fallen to the ground!

"Caron, there's an accident, get up!" said Mrs. Siso, who was pale, and did not bother to examine the life and death of the guards on the ground, lifted the corner of her skirt and ran to the room next door where her nieces were resting.

"Don't be fine...... God of light, I ask you for ......"

Madame Sisoka prayed, twisted the handle and gently pushed the door open, and after a glance she felt the world spin around, and her limp body slid down against the doorframe.

"Conrad!" said the disheveled Caron. Baron Sisoka arrived just in time and hugged his wife: "What's the matter?"

Madame Sisoka was speechless, but raised her hand feebly and pointed into the room. The baron looked up and saw a maid lying on the floor of the room, and the beds of the two nieces were empty!

"God of Lightβ€”" The baron also went limp, and almost fell to the ground.

In a short time, the entire inn was filled with panicked footsteps, men roaring, and women hugging each other and sobbing...... When the nobles came to their senses and wanted to find someone to settle accounts, they found that the operator of the hotel was gone, and not only that, but there was no one in the town where the hotel was located.

The unconscious guards came to their senses and went crazy looking for someone. Finally, a civilian was caught in the woods dozens of miles away, only to be told that the town had been taken by robbers two days earlier, and that all the townspeople had been driven far away.

"Conspiracy! This is a despicable conspiracy!" the nobles grabbed the guards by the hair and kicked their asses, but could not vent their resentment.

Since they were robbers, they would have come to ask for ransom, right? But the nobles waited in the hotel for days, but they didn't hear from them at all. Where will they know. At this time. Efichette. In the name of Xia Mai, invitations to celebrities from the family to be guests of the Dark Province have been sent all over the world. Even those nobles whose families were in the Holy Capital received ...... without exception

Now, Lu Man, who did not dare to live in the palace, had such an invitation in front of him.

It is a red invitation with a gilded royal coat of arms and a Fichette after the text. Xiamai's autograph, with the mark of the Xiamai family on the wax seal...... Don't say that Fichette is holding such a royal event now to show contempt for him, just these signs representing royal power have deeply pierced Lu Man's heart!

The battle ahead is uncertain. The fate of the future has been uncertain for a long time, and rumors are rife in Spia...... One after another, these things made Lu Man's already twisted heart even more chaotic: there was the sorrow of being alone, the fear of death, the resentment of the temple, the resentment of the Al Kaida family, and the little bit of shame that was difficult to face the world...... He Lu Man is beautiful on the surface, but secretly what about the god of light, these days are supported by spirits......

Make a rebellion...... Is it easy for him?

"According to your opinion. Lu Man asked the lackeys around him, "How many people will go?"

"Don't worry, my lord, I don't think anyone will go. ”

"Don't take it lightly!" Lu Man, who heard the perfunctory words of his subordinates and his eyes were bloodshot, slapped the table: "Cheer me up, Cohen." Don't you still know what Al Qaida is? Do you do what you can't do. It's what this rascal is capable of!"

"The adults are angry, they intend to win over the nobles. A roe deer guy walked up: "The only way to do it." We still have to continue to win over other nobles, and under favorable conditions, Cohen and the others have no chance. ”

"I know that, too. Lu Man sighed: "But now that Cohen has hit Du Feng Province, under the confusion of the situation, I am afraid that some nobles will disobey me and curry favor with both sides!"

"It's simple, we also have eyeliner in Dark City, and it's not difficult to find out who has a different heart. As for what to do next, adults can ...... as you like."

"If you receive my benefits, you have to do things for me wholeheartedly, which is a truth that even businessmen understand. Lu Man almost gritted his teeth, and his eyes became confused: "Who dares! If anyone dares to betray me, I will let him know how powerful I am." ”

After saying that, Lu Man grabbed the wine glass and drank it down, not noticing that the lackeys were all sweating profusely...... Still single-minded? Can't betray you? Your Excellency Lu Man, who do you think you are?

Riva Empire, capital, Kinshasa.

Early in the morning, fifteen-year-old Bernie. Princess Ebbinghaus walked in the royal gardens, very bored and kicked the gravel on the walkway.

As the youngest of His Majesty's six daughters, Princess Bernie has the most outstanding appearance and the most well-behaved character, so she is deeply favored by her parents, but at the same time she is ruthlessly jealous of her sisters. So this beautiful princess has no friends, and her life is not happy at all.

Fortunately, by chance, she met a young guard in her uncle's mansion the other day, a guard guarding the back door of the garden. This stupid and cute guy didn't even know that she was a princess, and the first time they met, they insisted that she was a maid who trespassed on the garden......

After "getting acquainted", this guy talked to her about his dreams, his lover, the outside world, and caught cute little animals for her. Her Royal Highness has a prince charming in her mind, and does not see this silly boy as a future object, and with no pressure on both sides, the little guard becomes the only familiar friend of Princess Bernie.

"Well, let him think of me as an ordinary maid...... It's also fun. Princess Bernie thought so, expecting the sun to rise soon, for she had told the guard that she would take herself to the flower market to-day.

It was not the first time, Princess Bernie first came to her uncle's house as usual, and then broke away from her entourage under the pretext that she was tired of playing and wanted to go into the guest room to rest, and finally changed her clothes and carefully slipped away through the window...... After a long period of tossing, he followed the little guard to the flower market.

"Last time! The stupid little guard stuffed his mouth with snacks and said vaguely, "I saw someone selling five-colored flowers...... The colors are so beautiful!"

"Yes, let's see!" said Princess Bernie instead.

"Boss, where are the five-colored flowers?" Princess Bernie looked at the rows of flowers in front of her, but didn't find what she wanted: "Why not?"

"Miss, you want five-colored flowers!" The honest-looking boss raised his head: "Because the sun is too strong now." You have to have it in the back flower garden. I'll let the guy show you if you want. ”

"Okay!

Saw Princess Bernie enter the flower garden. Two men not far away glanced at each other, and followed one after the other, one going straight into the flower garden and the other walking around the sideβ€”these were the two shadow guards assigned by the Emperor of the Riva Empire to his younger daughter.

With Princess Bernie's "skills", it is strange that she can sneak out and hide from these two, but it is a rare time to see her happy, and the scope is only in the city of Kinshasa, after secretly investigating this little guard several times. His Majesty the Emperor allowed her to go out to play.

As the lovely Princess Bernie marveled at a pot of five-colored flowers, two of her shadow guards fell into bad luck.

The attack came very suddenly, and the one who had made the detour was pierced by at least twenty crossbow arrows, and he fell without snorting in the splatters of blood, while the other guard was stabbed several times, and rushed to Princess Bernie with his last breath to take her away, but the stupid guard cut off his head...... At that moment, the little guard was no longer stupid, his eyes were clear, and the knife was as fast as lightning!

Although the fight was fierce in this short time. And the two shadow guards also shouted warning, but. Their voices can't break out of the magical enchantment in the flower garden.

"Who are you, and why are you doing this?"

Princess Bernie hurriedly took a few steps back, took out the small dagger she carried with her and put it around her neck, every royal woman has been educated like this since childhood.

"Bernie. Her Royal Highness Princess Ebbinghaus?" the honest-looking florist walked over and gave her a simple military salute: "I'm very sorry to have frightened you, but the lower officer is a major officer of the Dark Province Liaison Office of the Sbia Empire. ”

"An officer of the Sbia Empire?" Princess Bernie asked suspiciously, "What does this have to do with me?"

"Cohen. Governor Al Qaeda has commanded me that this invitation must be delivered to you. The major took out an invitation: "The subordinate doesn't know anything else." ”

"Whatever it is, I will never look at it!" Princess Bernie said firmly, "Let me go back to the palace, and I will let you go." ”

"Your Royal Highness Princess, you didn't understand my words, I just sent an invitation, whether to see it or not is completely your own decision. ”

"What?"

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Your Highness Princess. The major gestured to the people standing around him to leave: "We're done, we have to take our leave." ”

In an instant, everyone, including the "stupid" little guard, was gone, and Princess Bernie was still standing there in a daze.

"What's going on?" Her Royal Highness looked at the invitation card that was placed on the ground by the major officer, and it was the first time that she understood what it really meant to "cry and laugh".

But the princess was a very clever girl, and she was not going to look at the invitation! When she was sure that everyone was gone, she took a cautious step outward, and after a few steps, Her Royal Highness rushed out - and it would be safe to rush into the street!

But alas, she didn't make it to the street.

When sprinting, of course, the dagger will no longer be on the neck, and the moment the dagger moves away from the neck, the beautiful, intelligent, proud Bernie. Princess Ebbinghaus was paralyzed, and her delicate body fell only five steps from the gate of the flowerbed......

An hour later, the four gates of Kinshasa, the capital of Riva, were closed, and tens of thousands of guards turned the whole city upside down with a ferocious expression. Later, the Guards divided their forces out of the city and rushed along several roads. Some people have seen the female general known as the "rose of the army" - Winterhall. Rainey, she also led all the way out of the city.

When Princess Bernie awoke, she found that there was darkness all around, and her body was presumably padded with broken feathers, and her whole body was forbidden by a strange magic and could not move, nor could she shout or speak. There was a jolting and the horse in front of her neighed to her, as if it were a galloping carriage.

When passing through a checkpoint, Princess Bernie even heard the laughter of soldiers and cars in front of her, and she couldn't help but faint in anger and anxiety.

When I woke up again, it was no longer dark all around. When Princess Berne looked at it, she found that she had been moved to a cabin, and all she could hear was the sound of "whooshing" waves, and it was actually on the sea! Thinking that she was getting farther and farther away from home, the fifteen-year-old princess could no longer hold back her sorrow, and tears began to flow down her cheeks.

The hatch opened, and a man in a blue robe walked in, I don't know if it was a man or a woman, holding a silver plate in his hand, and I don't know what was placed on it.

Princess Bernie was terrified and hurriedly closed her eyes.

"Your Royal Highness, Princess, eat. A woman's voice sounded, as if it was not very vicious: "I will disarm His Highness from the magic, if His Highness resists, you will regret it." ”

Hearing that it was a woman's voice, Princess Bernie's eyes opened slightly.

The blue-robed man dismantled her spell, ate a little of each of the food on the silver platter, and made a gesture to the princess to eat.

Princess Bernie made an unwavering expression.

"If Your Highness doesn't eat it, I'll pour it. The blue-robed man's eyes showed coldness.

Now, Princess Bernie has to move her hands and feet, and eat it aggrievedly, as for what it tastes like...... I couldn't taste it at all.

Three days later, the big ship slowly approached the dock.

Princess Bernie stepped off the boat this time, but she was forced to eat breakfast by the blue-robed man before, and she also freshened up.

There was already a beautiful carriage waiting for her by the dock, and the dozen or so guards beside the carriage were quite energetic, and their vigilant eyes were patrolling around. Princess Bernie knew at a glance that these people were more powerful than her own shadow guards.

However, are these people really the subordinates of the rogue governor of the Sibian Empire? The people under the big rogue must all be small rascals...... No matter what, they're all bad guys anyway!

Princess Bernie made up her mind, even if she died, she would not give the other party a good look!

The carriage stopped in a manor, and Her Royal Highness the princess glanced at her surroundings a few times, and was sure that this was where the other party's lair was, so she bravely puffed up her chest and walked into the hall without hesitation.

But as soon as she entered the hall, she didn't see a fierce man or woman, nor a big hooligan or a little rascal...... Yes, it's just a dozen or so young ladies who are the same age as themselves.

It's a noble lady, you can see that.

"Hey, there's another sister here. A noble lady came over: "Sister, what's your name?"

Princess Bernie took a step back vigilantly and asked, "Who are you?"

"I ...... I am Du Lang, the Governor of Baisha Province. Daughter of Count Siso. The young lady replied pitifully, "My name is Fulan." Hisoka, it's been four days since I've been here. ”

"White Sands?" Princess Bernie thought for a moment, "The fourth largest province in the Sbia Empire, are you the daughter of the governor?"

"Yes. "Whirl. Hisoka nodded, "And my sister." ”

"Are you also arrested?" Princess Bernie realized that she was not the only one who was arrested: "What have those bad guys done to you in the past four days?"

One looks like a whisk. Miss Sisoka, who was about the same, came over and nodded to Princess Bernee, which was supposed to be Whirl. Hisoka's sister.

"I don't know why, we were caught in the night, and we woke up here. She put her arm on her shoulders and said, "Miss, a lady will ask you a question later, and if you don't answer 'yes,' you will stay one more day." (To be continued......)
