426 Secrets of the East (10)

426 Secrets of the East (10)

In the afternoon, the butler of the princess's mansion came to the fat man's room, saying that Scelis had woken up from a coma, and asked to see him immediately.

"See me?" the fat man hesitated, and the butler continued, Princess Scelis had something to talk about leaving the city of Tulga, and the fat man instructed the guards to take care of the courtyard, and under the guidance of the butler, they passed through several checkpoints in a row,

The courtyard is deep, and the bright July sun shines down from the sky, dragging a long black shadow between the corridors, and after walking through the winding courtyard corridor for more than ten minutes,

The fat man followed the housekeeper into a quiet courtyard, and saw that there were dense cyan tree walls all around, and on the silent mountain road, except for the footsteps of the two, no one could be seen anymore, which seemed extraordinarily quiet.

"This is the mountain courtyard specially rewarded by the royal court to the princess" The housekeeper looked at the fat man's puzzled expression, and explained as he walked, "Because she likes seclusion, the princess deliberately chose this location close to the mountain as her residence, and on the left side of the courtyard is the most beautiful hanging garden in Cloudsdale City,

Following the direction of the butler's finger, the fat man saw a row of dark red walls looming out of the woods,

"How's the princess?" the fat man pretended to be concerned, his eyes quickly swept over the dark red wall that occasionally peeked out in the depths of the forest,

I was thinking to myself,

For the situation that he saw behind the housekeeper just now, it made the fat man feel a little strange in his heart,

Four sentry posts, two teams of patrols, adding up to only about 30 people,

But this huge princess mansion is hundreds of square meters, and this rare guard, compared to such a huge mansion, is almost no different from undefended

Although Scelis was punished, she was the princess of the royal court after all, and she was also the defense officer of the third layer of Cloud City, so this arrangement was really weird

Could it be that this woman is playing some tricks with herself? The fat man's eyes narrowed slightly,

"My lord, here we are" The butler stopped in front of a small half-closed wooden door, and turned back awkwardly, "This was originally the mansion warehouse, and Her Royal Highness came here as soon as she woke up today, and only allowed you to enter alone"

"Warehouse?" the fat man paused, muttering quietly, things getting more and more elusive

"Is there something hidden here?" the fat man suddenly raised his head and asked, "May I ask whose mansion was this place before?"

"It is said to be the mansion of the great painter of the royal court, Alain Dewei," the butler was stunned when asked, and sighed, "The year before last, because of the expedition to Vekia with the king of Khan, the whole family died in the battle of Northern Kudan, and this place has become the property of the royal court."

The fat man asked a few more casually, but he didn't get the gist, so he could only push open the broken wooden door in front of him with a puzzled look.

The rusty door shaft made an unpleasant creak, and the unpleasant musty smell came with the wind.

"Ahem" The fat man covered his nose with his hand, felt an itch in his throat, couldn't help coughing a few times, and looked around with his eyes,

In the deserted room, gray dust covered the floor,

In the surrounding corners, thick piles of worn-out books and tomes were piled up, and gray cobwebs were scattered all over the corners of the room

The golden sunset sun shone in through the window of the room, which made the coldness of the room dissipate a little.

But it still makes people feel a chill that is difficult to dispel,

"Thank you so much for stopping me from doing something stupid" Celelise half-crouched, looking up from the pile of papers in the corner, her pale face showing a hint of redness, full of dreamy hazy beauty in the sunlight,

"Does the Grand Duke still want to leave this Cloudsdale?" Celelise raised her pretty chin and asked suddenly,

The fat man smiled at the corner of his mouth, but did not answer, and Scelis raised the scroll in his hand and said, "As long as the adults are willing to do me a favor, I can arrange for the adults to leave immediately."

"Oh, what do you need me to help you with?" the fat man's face was full of curiosity, and he couldn't help but feel excited at the thought that Scelis could let him go

"Look first, what is this" Scelis handed the broken scroll in her hand to the fat man, her eyes flashing with a sly gaze,

"Huh?" The fat man didn't know what Scelis handed to him, so he took it curiously, only to realize that it was a document that had already been sealed.

The fat man looked at Scelis Xiyi's gaze, and slowly opened it with his hand, only to feel that his eyes lit up,

I saw that in the Chinese scroll, a young girl wearing black armor was riding a cyan and strong war horse galloping on the vast grassland,

The black clothes are angry horses, the long hair is like satin, and the face is very similar to Scelis,

A compound longbow in his hand is full of roundness, a longbow beauty, arrows like snow, a pair of black jade-like pretty eyes, staring sharply at a golden leopard with teeth and claws in front of the horse,

The horse's hooves jumped up in the air, showing more and more that the longbow in the hand of the Kugit beauty was about to shoot, and the sassy and heroic posture at that moment,

Between the pretty face and silkworm eyebrows, it is even more aggressive and heroic,,

"Who is this woman?" the fat man looked slightly stunned, and praised in his mouth, "This painter is also counted, but with a few strokes, a stunning beauty jumps onto the page,,

"Did you knowingly ask, or did you think I was a fool who didn't know anything, like the people of the East Garden?"

Celelise looked at the fat man's appearance of pretending to be stupid, glanced at the fat man angrily, pointed to the scroll in the fat man's hand and said, "This painting is called the Queen's Hunting Picture, and it is one of the most proud works of the royal court painter Alain Dewei,

At the current price on the black market, it can be sold for at least 10,000 gold coins" Scelis paused, a hint of smugness flashed across her face

"I remember when I was in Achmore, he was the Queen's special painter, and I just wanted to try my luck, but who knew that I was actually able to find it"

"I was deprived of the right to enter the highest level at will by the royal court, so I can only ask for the help of the adults, as long as the adults can help me find this woman, I will immediately sign the passage documents for the adults, and I can send troops to escort the adults back to China."

"You're telling me to go to Cloudsdale to find someone?" The fat man was startled by Scelis's words, and looked at Sheris suspiciously,

The woman was playing tricks on herself again, but unfortunately the fat man saw Scelis looking at her with a pleading gaze

"What do you want me to do" The fat man shook his head with an embarrassed face and said, "Cloud City is where the royal court is located, there are many sentry posts, and there are many guards, not to mention going in to find people, but how to get through the three-story checkpoint is a big problem?"

"It's not a problem" Scelis looked at the fat man's puzzled gaze, her voice paused, and she said softly

"Maybe you don't know that today is the July Festival of our Kujit, and the royal court will inevitably hold a banquet for the July Festival in the evening, and as the princess of the royal court, I am also among the invites.

This is the only chance I can enter the royal court, when the time comes, I will ask the grand duke to accompany me, the people in the eastern court say that my mother is still alive, but I don't believe it,

Scelis looked sad, her hand tightly grasped the fat man's hand, and her voice pleaded, "Grand Duke, please help me, this is my only chance to verify"

"The royal court is so big, how do you want me to find a woman among tens of thousands of people" The fat man's face was embarrassed, and he just wanted to refuse, but when he saw Scelis's eyes full of hope, he fell into hesitation for a while,

"The Grand Duke can be regarded as agreeing," Celelis's face was delighted, and she said to the fat man's most solemn courtesy, "I know a place that was originally a ruined palace used to hold sacrifices, and I never thought that there were people in it in the past,

Although the ruined palace has been abandoned for more than ten years, it is still heavily guarded, and I took the wrong road several times when I was a child, that is, I was stopped by the royal court guards at the fork in the southeast corner.

I was reprimanded by the Khan several times for this, and now that I think about it, if I want to say that it is a ruined palace, I feel that this is a prison for prisoners.

If my mother is really imprisoned in the royal court, it must be in the ruined palace, and the adults only need to sneak in and take a look, and whether there is a result or not, I will fulfill my promise

"This. (Baidu search...... "The fat man looked hesitant for a while, Scelis's requirements were not very harsh, Rui Erdian's army was overwhelmed, and the time to leave was getting more and more urgent, and every day of delay was dancing on the tip of the knife

"If you don't believe me, I can give you the royal bow order right now," Scelis saw the fat man hesitate, took out a colorful object from his bosom, and gently placed it on the dusty table

"Royal Court Golden Bow Order" The fat man looked at the curved objects placed on the table, and couldn't help but look stunned, for the highest token of the Kugit Royal Court, the fat man had only heard of it, and this time he finally saw the real one, so he was naturally extra careful

A palm-sized small golden bow lies quietly on the table, finely carved and gold-twisted bowstring,

On both sides of the curved bow handle, inlaid with sixteen dazzling gems of various colors, the colorful brilliance dazzling people,

"Your Excellency should know the golden bow order of my Kugit royal court, looking at the fat man's surprised look, Scelis said proudly, "This is the highest level of my royal court's expatriate royal order, whoever holds it can represent the royal court to control all the tribes in the territory of Tulga,

The last time I went to Vecchia, the royal court awarded me one so that I could use it in case of emergency.

After I returned, the royal court ordered me to be imprisoned in the Immortal Heavenly Tablet Tower, and this golden bow order was kept by my side before I had time to take it back.

As long as you have this token, even if you meet the royal court guards, you can withdraw from Cloud City safely.

After tonight, even if the royal court investigates it, the adults will have already left Tuerga to hold me accountable for a crime of poor custody at most, which is nothing more than kneeling in front of the Immortal Heavenly Monument Tower for a few more days.

Celelisa smiled lightly, looking at the fat man still hesitating, and continued

If you are still not at ease, you can see with your own eyes that your people have withdrawn from Turga and then come with me to the banquet, which should represent my sincerity

"Okay, I accept the deal, and when I heard that Scelis could arrange for the others to withdraw first, the fat man nodded slightly, and took the golden bow from the table and put it in his arms,

"I hope you don't break your word, otherwise I swear in the honor of Duke Vecchia, I will never let you go" After the fat man finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave,

Suddenly I felt a warm hot soft body behind me clinging to my back,

"Princess, this is ......" The fat man turned back with an embarrassed face,

"Shhh

"My lord is going back to Vicchia tonight, I don't know if I will remember me as a prairie woman in the future" Scelis whispered in the fat man's ear with a slightly wheezing voice,

There is a bit of rare loss and sadness, and the parting is imminent, and it seems that Scelis has completely let go of her emotions

"Princess......" The fat man's voice did not fall, and the warm and tall girl's body had already thrown herself into the fat man's arms.

Wen Yu was full of arms, and the fat man squeezed by the two soft incense balls couldn't breathe, and a faint woman's fragrance rushed into the fat man's nose,

"Am I going to be pushed backwards?" The fat man was confused by this sudden situation, and he hugged the beauty in his arms, and the fat man couldn't help but be a little intoxicated.

But just when the fat man was still self-absorbed, the scelis, who had a leaky face, suddenly said in the fat man's ear, "Be careful, there are people outside the door"

"Ah" The fat man was stimulated by this sentence, and the leak just now was gone, with his sharp hearing, the fat man could vaguely hear a faint breathing sound, coming from the corner behind the door panel,

His eyes followed the direction indicated by Scelis's eyes, and sure enough, he saw a black shadow peeking out from behind the half-closed door.

At the same time, the fat man saw the wide sleeve of Princess Scelis's right hand trembling slightly, and a sharp horn knife slipped from the sleeve of the robe into Sherise's palm, "Don't do it, they may have others" The fat man held Scelis's hand holding the blade with one hand, "Let go of me, whoever it may know about our plan will die" Scelis's face flushed, and the fat man's hand holding the flying knife struggled a few times,

But he felt like an iron tong and couldn't break free, so he could only stare at the fat man with a pair of watery eyes.

Ignoring Scelis's eyes that concealed moisture, the fat man's expression was solemn, and his eyes suddenly closed, revealing a contemplative look,

In the fat man's ears, a tense creaking of the bowstring outside the door could be faintly heard,

"If you don't want to die, just keep playingNow there are at least a dozen strong bows waiting for us to rush out outside the door, as soon as we show up, the two of us will be immediately shot into a hornet's nest,

The fat man's eyes suddenly opened, and he whispered in his ear, which was still struggling in his arms

"My fat body, at most, a few more holes in my body, you will be different, under the indiscriminate shooting of arrows, your beautiful appearance was torn into a pile of ugly and disgusting minced meat in an instant"

"You ......" Celess tried to struggle in shame, but the fat man's arms were like iron buckets, and she couldn't move

The two were already hugging each other, and now they are entangled like octopuses,

People who don't know think that it is two couples who are having a private meeting, but they don't know that the two are actually hovering on the edge of life and death.

The dark shadow at the door stayed outside the door for a while, and found that the fat man and Scelis inside the door did not seem to have any intention of coming out, and then disappeared into the shadow of the sun.
