Chapter 417: Wedding Gift
After Kora hid in the carriage after Li Zijun, she took the driver's seat.
"You're going to drive?" Although Li Zijun had already learned that Cora was good, he really didn't expect her to be able to drive, so he couldn't help but ask curiously.
"When I came to Hucaro alone, I drove alone. After all these years, I want to leave here, and I don't want to fake it!"
"Don't worry, my skills are not bad, and I will never put you in danger!" Cora seemed to be in a good mood today, and she actually joked with Li Zijun.
is very different from Cora's appearance at the moment, Li Zijun's mood is particularly heavy at this moment, because he suddenly discovered that Cora is not ruthless to Hamilton!
Li Zijun even suspected that Cora was deeply in love with Hamilton, but for some reason, she chose to escape from this relationship!
"Hamilton is really good!" Li Zijun made a final effort for the relationship between Hamilton and Cora.
"I know!" Cora simply replied to Li Zijun, and she urged the carriage.
The carriage drove out of the range of the 'Hundred Flowers Building', and Cora's tears flowed silently.
"I'm the one who is the trouble for you! Otherwise, you can live happily as before. Speaking of this, Li Zijun sighed deeply.
Although Cora kept her back to him, Cora's tearful expression still couldn't escape Li Zijun's perception!
Cora's tears not only made Li Zijun's heart ache, but also full of regret for her.
"It's not about you! I've had the idea of getting out of here for a long time, but I haven't had the courage to take this last step!"
"You can't give Hamilton another chance. It's also a chance for yourself!"
"Hamilton doesn't need a chance, he's perfect for me! The problem is that I'm not worthy of him!" Korra wept and shook her head, and then vented all her frustration on the whip in her hand, causing them to run like the wind in the carriage.
When Cora said this, Li Zijun was silent, he really couldn't find any more suitable words to persuade Cora, he could only sigh at the ill-fated situation, sigh and shake his head for the two.
The carriage soon reached Hucarlo's gates, by which time Cora had wiped away tears from her face and replaced it with her usual smile.
"Boss Cora. Where are you going?" recognized Cora as a soldier in charge of searching passers-by. He greeted him with a smile.
"I'm going to go around the city!"
"What the hell has happened in the past two days, why do you have to search Hucaro every day when you go in and out?" Korra asked knowingly.
"Haven't you heard? The Grand Duke of Edlaide of Dongyu is likely to sneak up on us! In order to find out his whereabouts and prevent him from entering the capital, Shangfeng arranged for us to conduct a strict investigation here. I'm sorry for the trouble!" The soldier took two steps forward. Whispered in front of Cora.
"Oh. I heard that Edlaide was blue-faced, fanged, and powerful. Can you people stop him?" Cora nodded slightly, asking the soldier with a look of horror.
"We've now received a portrait of Edlaide, who doesn't look that scary. I felt like he was just an ordinary child. ”
"It's not us who are really responsible for besieging him, to tell you the truth, we are just joining in the fun, and there are other people who are really besieging him!" said the soldier, and looked around carefully, and saw that no one was paying attention to him, so he continued to whisper:
"It is said that in order to successfully besiege Edlaide this time, the Empire and the Divine Cult have joined forces and mobilized a total of more than a dozen Saint-rank masters. But even so, the upper side was still worried about letting Edlaide escape, so Shangfeng ordered that the garrisons everywhere should unconditionally cooperate with this siege and killing!"
After all, the identity of this soldier was lower, the information he got was not very accurate, and the number of Saint Rank masters was more than doubled!
"Cooperate with the action, you people are like straw in front of Edlaide, let you cooperate with you will not let you go to death!"
"Who's to say it isn't, I hope Edredder doesn't appear with us, and we don't move us to besiege him!" said the soldier, looking up at the heavens, and praying in a low voice.
"Since everyone wants to check, then you should check it quickly, I'm still in a hurry to get out of the city!" Korra made the preparations and began to take the initiative to ask the soldiers to search last time.
"You're really funny, how dare I search you?"
"Release!" The sergeant was well aware of Cora's relationship with Hamilton and his boss, so he naturally did not dare to search Cora, and he gestured to his companion behind him to let him go.
"I can tell you, the Grand Duke of Edryde is in my car, you are not bad, you really want to miss it!" said Cora as she looked at the soldier teasingly.
"Don't tease me, get out of town!" the soldier didn't believe Korra's words, and smiled to make way for her.
"Wait!" Cora was about to drive out of the city when a sudden sound of horses' hooves was heard behind them, followed by a mature man shouting loudly.
Cora was slightly stunned when she heard this voice, she had the heart to go straight out of the city regardless of the person behind her, but she was a little reluctant to meet this person for the last time.
In the midst of Korra's struggle, the man behind her had already arrived in front of her carriage.
"My lord!" the sergeant saw the person coming, and hurriedly gave him a standard military salute.
That's right, it's Hamilton, the city guard of Hucaro!
"Didn't you tell you to wait for me, to go so fast alone?!" Hamilton nodded to the soldiers, and then turned his gaze to Cora.
"I" Cora looked at Hamilton, not knowing what he was here for, and for a moment, she didn't know what she was supposed to say.
"What a child?!" said Hamilton, jumping off his horse with a package in his hand, and after 'counting' Corah, he took the initiative to board the carriage.
"You're a woman driving dangerously, so I'd better come!" Hamilton said involuntarily, snatching the whip from Cora's hand.
"Drive!" With a crisp whip, the carriage carrying Hamilton, Cora and Li Zijun drove out of Hucarlo City.
"Do you really want to follow Archduke Edlaide back to Dongyu?" Hamilton asked Cora with a jealous smell not long after leaving Hucaro.
"What do you think? How can I follow the Grand Duke, is there something wrong with your big head?" Cora didn't expect Hamilton to think that she and Li Zijun had something, she glared at Hamilton dissatisfied.
"Then why do you have so many things in your car? Don't you obviously not want to return to Hucaro?" Hamilton still didn't believe Cora's claim.
"Even if I want to follow the Grand Duke, the Grand Duke must be willing to take me with him!
"Yes, I just want to follow the Grand Duke and follow him back to be his old mother. Are you satisfied?" said Cora visibly.
"Hey, hey!" Hamilton smirked as he heard Cora say this.
"Then where are you going, I'll accompany you?"
"No, I won't be back to Hucaro for a long time after I leave this time, so let's go back!" Cora looked at Hamilton, sighed deeply, and said her thoughts without concealment.
"Don't go back, I'll go wherever you go this time! Don't you see, I even brought my luggage, anyway, I'll follow you!"
"It's just that I left most of my savings to my son, and I'm afraid I'll have to rely on you for spending money in the future, so don't leave me!"
Li Zijun didn't expect Hamilton, a guy who looked almost fifty years old, to do such a thing that was wilder than a young man in his twenties in order to pursue love and happiness, which couldn't help but make him sigh!
Hearing Hamilton's words, Cora was silent for a long time, tears again silently covering her cheeks.
"You just left Hucaro like that, and you don't worry about the court punishing you?" Korra asked Hamilton with a twitch.
"What crime do you want to punish me? I have already handed my resignation to the above, and whoever let them not reply to me for so long, then I can only acquiesce in their consent. ”
"Actually, I don't want to do this city guard for a long time, I just want to go to you, drink wine, eat soft rice, and see beautiful women every day, this is the day I yearn for the most!"
"But I didn't expect that before the court accepted my resignation, you would have to leave early, and I could only leave with you!"
"Bah, you are not allowed to look at other beauties!" Cora said harshly, but in fact, it also meant that her heart truly accepted Hamilton.
"Don't look at other beauties, just look at you beauties!" Hamilton swore to Cora.
"Fool!" Korra finally burst into tears and smiled, and the two looked at each other and kissed each other affectionately.
"Ahem!" Li Zijun's cough finally reminded the two of them that there was a 'light bulb' in the carriage, and the two parted their lips a little shyly, but their hands were still tightly clasped together.
"There's a minor here, you don't know how to scruple about it!" Li Zijun said as he jumped out of the carriage.
"I can't stand it, I can't stand it, I'd better go by myself!"
"Master" Cora was a little embarrassed.
"Forget it, let go and pursue your happiness!" Li Zijun waved his hand to Cora and Hamilton and prepared to leave.
But at this moment, Li Zijun suddenly remembered something, mysteriously called Cora aside, and secretly stuffed something to her.
"This is my wedding gift to you! After you make a copy of this thing, give it to your master!" Li Zijun quickly left the place after dropping this thing and inexplicable words to Cora.
"What did the Grand Duke send you?" Hamilton asked with a little curiosity as he saw that Li Zijun was gone, and came to Cora's side.
"I don't know what it is, see for yourself!" Kora took out the gift that Li Zijun had given her and handed it to Hamilton. (To be continued......)
