Chapter 71: Imperial Capital A New Journey
A new journey
"Luo, are you done?" Melson rode on his horse and looked in the direction of the gate of the town again, the sword gate was still unique and majestic, but the inside was unrecognizable, and things changed.
Robert looked at the luggage cart and nodded. "Almost. Leave the rest to the magistrate and Thor. Let's go back to the imperial capital. ”
"Then why is there so much stuff? Forget it, how do I think there are still people following us?" Melson pointed to the people behind him who were still tidying up, both men and women, and Mott and Beiyu were helping to urge and organize the formation in the back.
"I didn't expect this situation, I didn't expect that there are so many secrets here, some were abducted by strangers, some were sold by the family, and some couldn't go back and forth. Among them, there are also many noble children of the imperial capital. Most of them I haven't paid attention to, these are just a few of the people I know there are still families looking for. There are also the two people and the girl you knew. I see that girl insists on going back to the imperial capital, the one you beat up doesn't agree, and is still pulling around with me, do you want to go over and have a look?"
"Don't go. Melson shook his head.
Not to mention how eye-catching his identity is in the imperial capital, even if the girl returns to the family by herself, she will inevitably have a fight. "It's too much trouble. She just has her own opinions. When she needs it one day, let's find it. Melson said a little helplessly, still looking back, trying to see them in the group, but saw no familiar people, only an extremely beautiful sideways man being caressed into a carriage by a handsome man.
"That's the person Xiaoying brought with him. ”
Robert followed Melson's line of sight, saw the two as well, and explained.
"Brother Shadow, who is he going to bring?" asked Melson curiously. With the cold character of the sun shadow, there will be no accidents at all.
"That's the mother of the mourning night. ”
"She's not dead?" asked Melson, confused.
"No, she was lucky not to suffer any crimes, but she was left outside the city to raise flowers. Coincidentally, Xiaoying said that they met her and the man you saw around Mourning Night when they first came here. I heard that she kept warning Xiaoying and asked him to run quickly, thinking that she mistook Xiaoying for her child. But Mourning thought she was dead. Xiaoying wanted to take her back to the imperial capital to settle down first. ”
"This beauty is also yes, it's so annoying to die. If you have to make such a big move, you still have to use your soul to make up for the sword. This sword has been repaired, and Brother Ying is afraid that he will feel uncomfortable. Melson frowned and sighed.
"Xiaoying is more affectionate and righteous than he thinks, and accepting such a favor from a dead man, he is afraid that he will not be able to pay it off in this life. I heard Beiyu tell me something about the mourning night, but unfortunately I didn't see the real person. This can penetrate people's hearts, I have to say that it should be a terrifying person, he may see more thoroughly than we see Xiaoying, I think I have made up my mind to let Xiaoying remember him, people like this may be the most afraid, is that no one can remember him, really die alone. He was still lucky, and finally met Xiaoying. At least Xiaoying won't deceive him. ”
"When you say that, I doubt you're standing on the spot. He died to say thank you to Brother Ying. But Brother Ying didn't say anything, although Brother Ying's expression was nothing, but I felt that he was about to cry. I didn't dare or know what to say, but the boss seemed to say something. We're all gone. Anyway, where did the boss and Brother Ying go, and suddenly felt as if they hadn't seen anyone since yesterday. ”
"They went back to the imperial capital first. Robert explained, looking ahead.
"Ah, why don't you come along. Is there something going on in the imperial capital?" Melson saw that Robert's expression suddenly became solemn, and he felt that something was happening, and hurriedly asked.
"It's not a big deal, they'll take care of it themselves. Don't worry about it, help me get this group back. This Sulange is really, and it has come out on such a large scale. Robert digressed.
Peng Xiu greeted him with a rushing expression before leaving, and it should have been to chase the sun shadow depending on the situation, but he felt a faint killing intent. Although he didn't ask, in terms of time, it should be that person, the bishop of the Holy Court of Light. Although it is not known what kind of relationship Sunshadow has with the Holy Court of Light, killing the bishop is a serious crime, and Peng Xiu is also involved, so the fewer people who know about this matter at this time, the better.
Melson heard Robert's taboo, he was an extremely intelligent man, and knew that the matter should be very important, and even he could not say it, so he did not ask any more questions.
"Hey, who are you? You're our biggest secretarial leader, do you still need me? It's enough to have Mott and Beiyu as coolies for you. I'm a young master, and I don't work. Melson said triumphantly raising the whip in his hand.
"Okay, my little master, if you don't work, we'll flash the edges, we have to try to reach the imperial capital as soon as possible." There are still good things to do in the imperial capital. Robert waved his hand in disgust.
"It's like, Luo when have you been idle, haha......"
I'm back to the imperial capital. Prom Leads.
The morning sun is like a refuel, adding energy to this dark world.
Peng Xiu Mansion. Eyes from the skylight, pierced down, evenly on the huge dining table.
"Ah......h
Caught at the top of the silver spoon was a pair of eerie purple berries, with an inexplicable sourness and a slightly unpleasant taste.
The man holding the soup spoon used his attitude towards children, with a doting expression that was extremely inconsistent with his temperament. His muscular body was wrapped in half robes, half armor. There was a faint breath of slaughter in Jian Meixing's eyes, which made people frightened.
"Don't eat it! ”
Compared to men, the sun shadow dresses very loosely and casually. Dressed in plain and loose black long-sleeved trousers, the whole body is airtight, revealing only a snow-white neck and a thin and handsome face.
"Is the expression disgusting?" the man turned to look at Robert, who was sitting at the side of the dining table, wearing a smart high-neck uniform and a metal frame looking at a Chinese piece.
"It's not for me, it's fine. He held back a smile and raised his eyes with his hand to cover the curvature of his lips, and replied solemnly.
"Something to do today?" "Ri Ying was flushed with a sense of getting up, his face was different from the usual indifference, it was rare to have a little ordinary atmosphere, with a dark face, and the fork in his hand was still indiscriminately inserted in the exquisite food on the plate, and he said coldly while stuffing it into his mouth.
"Haven't you been suffering from major injuries all this time? This is the myrtle fruit that I asked people to get from the south, and it is cultivated with herbs. Come and eat a few. Come on, ah......"
Sunkage felt like her brow was furrowed.
The berries in front of him really look too weird, not to mention the big tonic, it's almost the same as the poison, but this person still has a very weird expression. Although I knew that he would not hurt him, my heart refused.
"Ahem, boss, let's pay attention to the image. Robert looked at the cough and reminded.
Peng Xiu turned back into His Royal Highness in a second, and he was a noble prince who held great power and looked down on the world. His grim eyes looked at the approacher.
Before the group approached, they had already felt a heavy aura, and today their Highness still had such a sense of existence. They were busy saluting.
"See Your Highness. The good dress you said yesterday, it's ready. A maid said.
"See Your Highness, this is today's document, just now Lord Robert ordered that if it is sent by the Ministry of the Interior, bring it to the restaurant. A valet said, holding up a file.
"Your Highness, I'm here to serve the food. Chef said that he had made a new snack today as instructed, and he hoped that Lady Nikkage would like it. ”
"Attending His Highness, Lord Mary said that please change this kind of herbal tea, which can offset the sour taste of myrtle fruit. The other maid said, holding a pot of red that was a liquid with a royal luster.
"Attend Your Highness, I'll ......"
"Put down what you have in your hand, and go down. Peng Xiu's magnetic voice was a little majestic, interrupting the group's continued introduction.
I saw a group of people rushing in, except for the papers that were placed in Robert's hand, and the other things were piled up in front of the Sun Shadow like a small mountain. The group receded as quickly as the tide.
"What are these?" said Sunshadow frowned, looking at the items piled up in front of him like a small mountain. It's understandable to eat, but what are these clothes, ornamental swords, dazzling numbers of brooches, epaulettes and accessories.
"You didn't tell him yesterday?" Peng Xiu looked at Sunshadow in confusion and turned to Robert to ask.
"You didn't ask me to tell Shadow, you just asked Mary and I to prepare something for him. But Mary has to say that Xiaoying is too cute, her choice disorder will attack, except for the clothes are standard uniforms, she can't pick anything else, otherwise she will let Xiaoying try it all, it's better to let him pick it himself, so there are no buttons on the clothes. Robert said helplessly.
"Tell me what?" asked Sunshadow, looking at Peng Xiu.
"There's a party tonight, Lord Morton's birthday party. You go along. Peng Xiu said gently.
"Don't go. There is still war on the border, and this group of people is still drunk and dying. Sunshadow said coldly, but more often than not, he didn't want to participate in these boring socials.
"This is the imperial capital. Robert said. "Even if the soldiers come to the city tomorrow, such a birthday banquet will still be held as usual. Moreover, Xiaoying, this Lord Morton is not an ordinary person. ”
"Isn't it royalty?" said Nikkage, sipping milk, as he looked at Robert. Ordinary royal nobles, Robert probably wouldn't have introduced him at all.
"It's royalty, but it's not your average royalty. He is the link between the Empire and the Holy See, and is the greatest watchdog of the Holy See in the Empire. He is royal, which gives him some affection for the country, and at the same time he is the most faithful believer in the Holy See, and he has the trust of both sides. It can be said that the Empire's harmonious relationship with the Holy See over the years, and the credit for receiving the best resources from the Holy See but paying the least price comes from him. And his granddaughter is the most revered of the many holy women in the Holy Court, and the most likely to become the next saint, Princess Yufie. ”
"I don't want to go. Sunkage ate the last bite of bread in her hand, reached for the intricate, layered snack she had just brought over and garnished with bright cherries, and got up to leave.
"Xiaoying, no. When you're at home, even if you eat a snack, you can't stop eating at the table. Peng Xiu's magnetic voice was a little serious. "And ......," he continued. "Know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles. Aren't you going to see it yourself, or are you actually relying on me all along?"
Speaking of this, the corners of his mouth hooked up a little smile, with a little playfulness. "Well, of course it's not impossible, after all, Xiaoying is so cute, if you change your name to call me dear, I'll agree." ”
Sunshadow frowned speechlessly, sometimes it was really difficult to understand the man in front of him, the impermanent way of doing things.
Even if he knew the secret, he didn't ask why, and he didn't hesitate to help her kill Frey, and didn't ask a word again. But she always felt that in fact, in front of this person, any secret was invisible.
Those eyes that see through everything will always be as sharp as the first time we met, piercing everything in the world.
By the way, they had a conversation at that time. The man said in a tone that bordered on pity that was completely inconsistent with the content of his conceit. "Come with me, whoever you want to kill in your heart will eventually die in the world I rule. ”
But the people in front of him are smiling too gently now, like the sunshine of this spring, extremely gentle, and they can't bear to ignore it.
"Ahem" Compared to the silence and calm of the Sun Shadow at this time, Robert's refill almost cut short on the paper the moment he heard the dialogue, and he choked on saliva and coughed.
"Boss, are you teasing your subordinates with this?"
I used to think that Peng Xiu's attitude towards Sun Ying was kinder than theirs, but now that he has gone to a spring town, how can his attitude be even more eccentric, even if he can't help but complain.
Peng Xiu also seemed to feel that the conversation just now was a little too much, and touched his nose.
"Well, I need to go first, Xiaoying, I'm there waiting for you. After saying that, he didn't wait for the Shadow to say anything, turned around and left neatly.
Sunshadow nodded, agreeing to the arrangement. He put down the pastry in his hand and began to rummage through the hill of objects, finding the simplest, least featureless, least conspicuous he could see.
"In the evening, Mary will come to you when she gets her clothes ready, and then we'll go. Robert said.
"Xiaoying, how can you pick out this almost invisible decoration from this pile of colorful gems?" Robert smiled helplessly as he watched Sunshadow pick and choose. "You'd better be careful of Mary'......"
The shadow paused, and some bad routines came to her mind. Casually reaching out and taking a simple and unique badge with some kind of intricate pattern in relief, and a rare obsidian in the center of the dazzling array of ornaments.
"Add this ...... at most," Sunshadow said.
"If I had added this, I think Mary would have agreed. Robert smiled meaningfully, but did not explain anything, picked up the paper in his hand, which was still flipping through, and got up to summon the servant in the distance. "By the way, Xiaoying, it's better not to bring weapons. You probably won't listen, though. ”
Sunkage didn't think much of it, nibbling on the last piece of delicious snack in his hand, and got up, ready to go to the meeting room to sleep for a while.
"Little Shadow...... If you sleep after eating, you will become a pig. Peng Xiu's voice came from nowhere......
