Chapter 138: Confiding in your heart
Watermark looked at Boris and Bernard with a smile, and anyone could tell that he was in a very good mood. Although he did not answer Boris and Bernard's words, it did not come across as rude.
Boris and others, saying these words, did not shy away from stupidity, apparently they also regarded stupidity as their own.
"Stupid, as an elder, can I call you like that? I'm so lucky to have you today, if I thank you, I won't say more, our Trak family will definitely regard you as the closest and most reliable friend in the future. Boris said.
"I'm a friend of Watermark and these are all things I should do. Nothing more. Moreover, the contradiction between me and the eldest prince's evil eye is irresolvable, and I am helping myself by helping the watermark. Stupid said.
"Anyway, thank you. Boris said.
Stupid had no choice but to nod.
Watermark instructed his soldiers to make some simple drinks and dishes and sent them over. Although alcohol is not allowed in the barracks, it is not a time of non-war and it is okay to drink some alcohol.
Watermark, Stupid, Boris, and Bernard drank over a simple meal.
As the second prince, Watermark naturally drank a lot of fine wine, but today's wine, he felt that it was unusually sweet, so he drank more.
Stupid only drank a little, but he still couldn't resist Boris, so Bernard toasted him and drank some. Stupid only likes to drink some low-alcohol ale and fruit-made wine, and really has no interest in spirits at all.
Seeing Boris and others drinking spirits like this, he really admired them a little.
Boris and others also did not drink much, after all, they did not forget where they were.
After eating the food and drink, it was getting dark, and Boris and Bernard left and went back to their tents.
All that remains of the handsome tent is the watermark and stupidity.
Watermark seemed a little excited, his face flushed, with a smile on his face, looking stupid.
Stupid was a little embarrassed by the watermark's gaze, and said, "I'm not a beauty, what do you think I do?"
The watermark "hehe" smirked and said, "Stupid, do you know or not, in fact, you are very handsome, and you are better looking than a beautiful woman." If you can show a little smile and a little more expression, there will definitely be a lot of women running after you. Your face is always so blank, how can there be a beautiful woman willing to follow you?"
When Stupid saw the watermark like this, he knew that the watermark had drunk too much, and he didn't care about the watermark, "You are more handsome than me, and you are the second prince of the empire, there should be more beauties chasing you." ”
"What the second prince of the empire, go to hell. Watermark shouted, "Stupid, you know what, until today, I don't know what it's like to be in power." I used to live in the shadow of my big brother's evil eye. Nothing has ever been accomplished. ”
Stupid was silent, he knew that Watermark was happy today, and after drinking, his mood was definitely different from usual.
"You don't know, I'm a concubine, I'm a concubine, but it's not as good as a dancer. Ever since I was a child, my eldest brother has always been ahead of me in everything. He always gets something better than me, better than me. I've been living in his shadow. Even from the age of fifteen, he was taught by his father to deal with government affairs, while I could only rely on my reputation as idleness and become a useless child. ”
"The queen mother always hid in the house and cried, and every time I saw her crying, I felt distressed. I know that she is also complaining about my father's injustice and my lack of motivation. But you know what? I want to be more motivated than anyone else, but my father and my eldest brother won't allow it. ”
"You've drunk too much, so let's get some rest?" said Stupid to Watermark. Then he went to hold the watermark. The watermark was carried by him to the bedroom behind the handsome tent.
Watermark sat on the bed, but lay down. He took the clumsy hand and began to babble about his childhood.
"The horse, really nice and beautiful. It's also very much to my liking. I was only eight years old at the time, and I wanted to grow up with it and become a general in the future. Watermark hiccuped, and a look of remembrance appeared on his face.
"Ever since my eldest brother and I had several horseback rides and he had lost, I had to be careful to have people watch over him. But in the end, it did not escape, was poisoned and died. Before he died, he looked at me with beautiful eyes and shed tears, and I knew that he didn't want to die, didn't want to leave me. But there is no way, whoever made the poison too powerful, the imperial doctors in the palace can't find out what poison it is. ”
"From then on, I knew that I couldn't have good things, and as long as there were good things, they would be destroyed by my eldest brother. ”
At this time, Watermark's emotions suddenly began to get excited.
"You know? The whole palace knows who did these things, my eldest brother who has no one in his eyes. His father knew that he had done it, but he never punished him. Even his father encouraged him to do so. ”
"Sometimes, I don't know whether to be glad or not, and that day, I hid in the garden and heard the conversation between my eldest brother and my father. ”
"The eldest brother confessed to his father that he had poisoned my pony, and said that it was because my pony was stronger than his pony. Since he couldn't take it, he had to poison it. His father actually smiled and encouraged him, saying, 'Kill and kill, and those who are kings should be so decisive.' In the future, there will be such a thing, and when the time comes, you will have to treat people with the same way you treat this horse. I almost shouted......"
"Because of the malice of the eldest brother, because of the words of the father to the eldest brother. Many years later, I lived in such shadows. I'm scared of the people around me ending up like that pony, so I don't get close to anyone. Even my brother is iron, I can't get close to him......"
"When I was an adult, I was a little ambitious at first, and I wanted to make a big career. At that time, there were a few officials who had a good relationship with me, and they were very supportive of me and very close to me. But it didn't take long for them to be degraded and assassinated...... None of them escaped the fate of being hurt. From that time on, I stayed away from everybody, from all the things that my eldest brother thought I might affect his interests. ”
"Because, I don't want to have any more innocent creatures, innocent people to be implicated by me. ”
"It won't be like this anymore. Since you're my friend, of course I'm going to protect you. Don't worry, I'll protect you. Said in a clumsy voice.
Hearing Stupid's words, Watermark began to get excited again, "Yes, stupid, I knew from the first time I saw you, we would become good friends." But I don't dare to get too close to you. I'm afraid that the old things will happen again. Who would have thought that you would become a Saint Rank master so quickly. I'm never afraid that someone will hurt you anymore. ”
"Yes, not only am I not afraid, but I am glad that you can help me like this. I'm really happy, very happy...... Growing up, I've never been so happy. Stupid, for the sake of our friendship, why don't we have another drink. ”
"You're drinking like this, and you're still drinking? I know you're happy, but we also have to be temperate, aren't we? You've drunk enough today. Stupid said.
"Stupid, you know what? I've been friends with Charlotte for more than ten years, and everybody thought we'd be a couple, and we'd end up married. But, ah, I didn't expect you to take her heart away. Watermark said with a half-drunk, half-sober voice.
Hearing Watermark say this, Ben suddenly felt a little big. He remembered what he had said to Charlotte at the Spring Festival that year.
He hadn't really liked anyone before, but he thought Charlotte was very beautiful and had a youthful affection for her. He really didn't expect that Charlotte would take what happened when he was a child seriously.
Or don't think about these things for now, now that the war is imminent, who can know what tomorrow will bring?
Shake your head stupidly and put all these thoughts away.
"Stupid, you know what? If Charlotte wasn't smart enough and never caught my brother's attention, she probably wouldn't have been able to escape my brother's murder. Thankfully, we only had an ambiguous friendship, and my eldest brother wasn't interested in a woman like Charlotte, so I was able to be friends with Charlotte for so many years without causing her any trouble. ”
"At first, I was cautious, until I realized that my eldest brother really had no interest in Charlotte at all, and gradually I became more involved with Charlotte. She's the only close friend I've had in my twenty years of life, and you have to treat her well, you know? ”
After saying these things, Watermark seemed to let go of all the knots in his heart, and then collapsed on the bed and began to fall asleep.
