Chapter 104: Sanssouci Palace

Back at the inn, life gradually returned to peace, Gehr completely left the matter of the eldest princess behind, in addition to going to the library every day to read books to enrich himself, is to do a lot of training, and at the same time waiting for the latest news, to decide the time to leave.

Day 4 of arrival in Bern.

In the library, in a small room surrounded by bookshelves, leaning on the soft sofa, Gehr held a black hardcover book and flipped it, looking serious and focused.

I don't know how much time passed, but the book in Gehr's hand finally turned to the last page.

Placing the book on the wooden table, Gehr picked up the black tea that had been on the table for a long time and drank it all in one gulp.

Standing up, looking around at the entire collection of books on the shelves, and feeling that nothing had been missed, Gehr stretched, and some stiff joints made a gurgling sound.

"I have to change the reading room again, not just to avoid the trouble and just read in the large public reading room. ”

Gehr sighed that his reading is not so much about reading as it is about directly recording the pages of the book as if taking pictures, and then constantly playing them back in his mind to deepen the impression, so his reading speed is very fast, and there is no problem in the reading room where he is alone, but it is still a little too different in the public.

Pulling open the door, Gehr was going to go directly to a reading room nearby that was empty, and someone would naturally deal with it later. In the past few days, Gehr has been soaking here every day, and he is also generous, and those service staff are already somewhat familiar with him, as for his frequent change of reading room, it is only regarded as a quirk of his, and some strange behaviors of rich people are not uncommon these days, and it is rare to be the same as ordinary people.

The door opened. Geer's eyes froze, and his steps stopped in vain. Just a few steps away from the door stood a man in gray, middle-aged. The face is ordinary, the body is medium-sized, and the clothes are also the same as those of ordinary people, and it looks like the kind that is completely invisible when thrown in the crowd. His body didn't move, and his breath was almost none, and if you didn't look at him directly, you would think it was just a statue, and Gehr had not been able to perceive his presence at all.

"Who?" said Gehr, his hand resting on the hilt of his sword. This kind of person suddenly appeared in front of him, and it seemed to be coming towards him. There must be a purpose, and for a stranger who may be in danger, Gehr still has the necessary vigilance.

"Good day, Mr. Griezmann. On the orders of Her Royal Highness the Celestial Princess, you are invited to a banquet to be held tomorrow night at Sanssouci Palace. The man in gray explained his purpose calmly and without emotion, took out an invitation-like paper from his bosom and presented it to Gehr in both hands.

"Celestial Princess?" Gell was a little stunned, he didn't seem to have anything to do with that highness, at most he had glanced at her from a distance a few days ago. How can you send yourself an invitation.

"Yes, please enjoy it. The man in gray repeated, his voice in exactly the same tone as before.

After thinking about it, Gehr carefully took the invitation with his left hand. Holding the hilt of the sword in his right hand, his eyes fixed on every subtle movement of the man in gray.

But all precautions were done in vain, and the man in gray remained motionless. After accepting the invitation, Ren Geer saluted Geer. turned around and left step by step, and disappeared after a while.

Gehr used the monitoring module to scan the invitation for a while. Only open it carefully after finding no problems.

The content of it is very simple, that is, tomorrow night the eldest princess will hold a dinner party, invite Gehr to attend, you can bring a female companion, and then there will be a carriage to pick him up at the hotel where he is staying.

After reading it, Gehr was still confused, especially the signature on it was Geer's full name, obviously the eldest princess knew him, at least she had a certain understanding of him.

After thinking about it for a while, Gehr still couldn't figure it out, so he could only press it for the time being, and wait for the others, mainly Lucarin, to converge before discussing it.

Gehr put that aside and went on with his reading.

When Gehr had finished his reading for the day and returned to the inn in the carriage before dinner, Lucarin was already waiting for him in his room.

"Gehr, Princess Celestia may be looking for you in the near future, you have to pay attention to some ......" These were the words that Lucarin used to greet Gehr.

"Do you know the truth?" said Gehr, who was surprised that Lucarine had already known the truth.

"What did you say?" Lucarin was stunned for a moment, and then asked a little nervously, "Could it be that the eldest princess has already looked for you?"

"No, just one of her men sent an invitation. Gehr walked over to the table, handed the invitation to Lucarin, and poured a glass of water. "How did you know that Princess Lu Dao would look for me?"

Lucarin took the invitation, opened it and looked at it, before continuing: "Today I went to the intelligence base, and the person in charge there told me that the eldest princess asked about you yesterday, and she may summon you and ask you not to run around. ”

"What does the head of intelligence here have to do with the Celestial Princess, and how could he know about me?" asked Gehr.

"I don't know, but the person in charge is a local nobleman, strictly speaking, not a person from our organization, they all have their own independent intelligence channels, and we can only be regarded as limited cooperation, he should also have some contact with the eldest princess. Lucarine rubbed her forehead, her face a little distressed. "Originally, we could leave and go back when the matter was over, but now that the eldest princess is involved, there may be unnecessary changes. ”

"Don't worry, if you have something to do, you will know the way tomorrow, and there is no need to worry too much. Gell smiled, and naturally placed his hand on Lucarin's head and rubbed it.

The two were stunned for a moment.

Gehr's action was completely a natural reaction of his body, and the combat reaction he had cultivated over a long period of time had made him develop the habit of moving his body before his consciousness, and by the time he realized that this movement was a little inappropriate, it was too late.

Lucarin's face was only slightly red, and she did not have a seizure, but lowered her head and did not speak.

"Then you can accompany me to tomorrow's dinner. Gell removed his hand from Lucarin's head and said quietly.

"Well...... What a ......," Lucarin's voice was like a gnat. "By the way, it's almost time, let's go eat first. ”

"Yes. You go first, I'll come right over. ”

Watch as Lucary hurried out of the room. Gehr looked at his right hand with some confusion before putting it down for a long time.

"It feels really good. ”

......

Nothing was said all night.

The next day. Gehr spent less time reading in the library and returned to the inn early, where Lucarin, who had changed into her evening dress, was already waiting for him.

Lucarine was obviously carefully dressed, choosing a set of white lace dress-style evening dresses, which fully showed the girl's slender waist, slender legs wearing white stockings, and long silver hair tied into two hairbands, which were simply held by emerald headbands and hung down on both sides.

"It's beautiful. Gerzan said.

"Of course. Lucarine squinted. Very unceremoniously accepted this praise. "Your clothes are in your room. ”

"Okay, wait for me. ”

Gehr greeted the other three companions who were staring at him frequently, and went back to his room to change his clothes.

After a while, the rejuvenated Gehr came out.

"Let's go. ”

"Wait. Lucarin stopped Gehr.

"What's wrong?" asked Gere, curious.

Lucarine didn't answer, but circled around Gehr, then approached Gehr, carefully smoothing out some of the folds in his clothes, and rearranging the neckline.

"Alright. Lucarin took a few steps back and looked Gehr up and down. Nodding in satisfaction.

Looking at the two people walking out of the hotel, Iona sighed, lay on the table for a while, and then shouted at the waiter at the bar, "Bring me some good wine......

......

Walk out of the hotel door. In the lane outside, a black four-wheeled carriage had been parked, driven by a middle-aged man in a black dress. His meticulously groomed mustache stands out.

Seeing Gehr and Lucarin come out, he takes off his hat and salutes Gehr.

"I'm Joshua. Serving Her Royal Highness the Celestial Princess, she was in charge of picking up and dropping off two of you today. ”

Gehr nodded. Let Lucarine get into the carriage first, and then sit on it herself.

"Let's go. ”

"Okay, please sit tight. Josephine, the coachman, answered, and whipped his horse.

Princess Sanssouci is located in the royal palace district of Bern, a hilly area that occupies nearly a quarter the size of the city of Bern, and the terrain is high, so the road is uphill.

The car drove all the way, and from time to time there were carriages passing from the front, and there were many people in the same direction, but I don't know if Lu Dao went to the eldest princess's dinner party.

Neither Gehr nor Lucarin continued to speak, after all, they were in someone else's carriage now, and they didn't know the purpose of Princess Ludao, so they had no desire to speak.

As the carriage kept moving forward, the scenery outside the window became more and more sparse from the dense shops and houses, and it was not long before it drove onto a road surrounded by greenery on both sides.

Sigh!!

The horse neighed and then clanged a few times, and suddenly the carriage braked suddenly.

"How do you drive?"

Joshua, the coachman, shouted loudly from the front. At this time, the carriage shook a few times and came to a complete stop.

"Damn, which coachman are you, didn't you see us turn around first?" a swaggering voice came from the front.

"You didn't look at the road!" Joshua said dissatisfied.

"......Shut up! Silver Moon Emblem...... Her Royal Highness the Celestial Princess's car?" the scolding coachman suddenly stopped, apparently recognizing the identity of the owner of the carriage.

"That's right, this is Her Royal Highness the Celestial Princess's carriage. Joshua's mouth was full of pride.

The driver suddenly stopped, smiled a little awkwardly, then turned around and said something to the people in the carriage, and drove out of the way.

Gehr looked sideways out of the window and saw that the window of a white carriage on the opposite side was also opened, and a young man inside looked at it at the same time. The other party looked a little thin, quite gentle, and looked like a polite polymath, but his eyes were very sharp.

The two politely smiled at each other, which was regarded as revealing this trivial matter.

The coachmen on both sides staggered past each other in their respective carriages, and soon they could no longer see each other.

"That was the Anslin family's carriage just now. Lucarin reminded in a whisper.

Gehr nodded, and had a preliminary picture of the power of the eldest princess. (To be continued......)
