Chapter 2709 Hundred Years of Solitude (6)
"This, this way." Elaine took Arthur to another room in the side hall: "Yes, completely burn the changed clothes and wash the body thoroughly."
"Of course." Arthur replied. After all, the Black Death is a terrifying infectious disease, and it is completely reasonable to take this precautionary measure in the palace.
People in this era lack medical common sense, but they have such a leak-proof means of epidemic prevention. It must be Elaine's guidance -- or, Merlin's guidance.
The palace even specially introduced flowing living water for Elaine and the others to prepare a small bathing pool, and there was distilled alcohol beside the pool for disinfection and decontamination. Elaine deftly sanitized her hands with alcohol and handed the bottle to Arthur.
Actually, Arthur never touched the queen at all, not even anything in that room. But since entering the room of the sick patient, the disinfection procedure must not be slack at all. He poured some wine into his hand, and the pungent smell immediately hit his face. This wine is either whisky or vodka. In short, the concentration is not low, and Arthur feels hot in both hands. Although this is certainly not as good as the real 75% alcohol for medical disinfection, it is at least better than nothing.
"Why are you blushing?" Arthur asked, "Could it be that you drank the wine secretly?"
"No, no." Elaine buried half of her body in the pool, soaking and soaking.
Arthur jumped into the water and took a few casual dips, even though he didn't think it was necessary at all. There is no soap to wash off the greasy body, no matter how long you soak it, it will not have the effect of sterilization, right?
Elaine did a thorough wash from head to toe to make sure no bacteria remained on her body before leaving the bath to change.
"So," Arthur asked in a low voice, "When can we see Charles VII?"
"Immediately..." Elaine replied in a low voice, "We don't need to meet him, he will come naturally..."
Arthur didn't understand what Elaine meant, but from Elaine's uncomfortable expression, he could clearly sense that this guy didn't want to see the King of France. but why? Is it simply because Elaine is not good at dealing with princes and nobles?
At this time, a small white sparrow flew into the courtyard outside the window. As soon as it landed on the edge of the bath, it spat out an object the size of a toothpick from its mouth. After the object left the sparrow's mouth, it immediately became larger, because whether it was a sparrow or its mouth The objects contained in it are all reduced by magic, and the objects will naturally grow larger when the magic is removed.
It was a razor-sharp dagger.
"Uncle Arthur, is the dragon's blood enough? Would you like some more?" White Sparrow said, seeing that there was no one around, it was naturally Hyosung pretending to be a transformation spell.
"No, I haven't used it just now, it's enough." The King of Knights replied. Xiaoxing's dragon blood is very special, which allows Arthur to also have the ability to cast illusions, although the effect and scale of the illusions are completely incomparable to those of Xiashuanglong.
"Then." The little sparrow jumped on the shoulders of the king of knights, ready to move.
"...Your Majesty," Elaine also lowered his voice and asked the King of Knights: "After crossing into this world and this world, the body we borrowed really, really appeared out of thin air, right?"
"Hmm." Because it was very troublesome to explain, King Arthur simply refused to deny it.
"No, no matter how this body is treated... no one will be hurt, right?" Elaine asked again: "We go back, after we go back (referring to 900 years ago) , what will this body look like?"
"I tried to sleep in a stone before. But if I really go back, the [righteous body] that I borrowed may disappear from the world." The king of knights confused. This is completely different from what he has seen before, and he just said this to Elaine to save trouble.
"Okay, okay..." Fatty Bai rubbed his shoulders and seemed to have made up his mind.
The two walked out of the bathroom and into the depths of the courtyard. There, a tower, about five stories high, stood isolated from the rest of the palace.
"The assistant can go back first. His Majesty the King has something to discuss with the doctor." Several guards outside the bathroom almost escorted Elaine's assistant away.
At this time, the "assistant" had already been dropped by Hyosung who disguised himself as a human by illusion, and it was Hyosung who was sent away. The real Arthur activated an illusion to keep his body from being seen by the guards, and followed behind Elaine. Elaine walked slowly towards the tower and passed the three guards guarding the tower.
The interior of the tower is almost entirely filled with books, at least the first and second floors. Going up the spiral staircase, the surrounding air is gradually covered with a delicate incense. The entire tower is not guarded, and the room on the fifth floor is a small bedroom that has been isolated from the world and has been transformed into a very warm one. Inside there are luxurious queen beds, the sheets are even made of silk. Other living equipment is also readily available, there are even tools for making black tea on the table, and there is even a stylish stove on the side of the room - although it is summer now, it is basically useless.
According to Arthur's guess, this tower bedroom is either used to house certain political figures who are not suitable for publicity, or to isolate people who have suffered from the Black Death. Anyway, it is completely empty now, and the king is not here of course. It suddenly occurred to Arthur that this attic was actually intended for Elaine.
Wait. How is this going? Shouldn't...
There were faint footsteps from downstairs, Elaine immediately lowered her voice and said, "Quick, hide under the bed, under the bed."
Arthur reluctantly complies. This may be his only chance to break through the guards and meet the French King Charles VII alone. Although I have a bad premonition, I can only act according to the plan.
Arthur swiftly scurried under the bed, his view almost completely blocked by the silk sheets that peeked out from the sides of the bed. He carefully pushed aside the edge of the sheet, peering out without exposing his limits. At the same time, a young and middle-aged man who appeared to be in his twenties and barely in his thirties walked into the bedroom. He was plain, with a comically large lip to nose ratio, and slightly noticeable bags under the eyes. And the man was wearing fairly little clothes. Needless to say, this frivolous black-haired man was Charles VII.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty." Elaine seemed to be sitting in front of the bed nervously, saluting the king who had just entered.
"Don't be polite, Joffrey." Charles VII went straight to the bed, "I heard that the queen's disease is almost finished?"
"Yes, yes. Observe for another three months. If the disease is gone and not contagious, it can be recognized and regarded as a complete cure." Elaine replied. He stuttered even more before the king.
"You're a sin that deserves death," said Charles VII suddenly, sitting next to Elaine.
As a result, Arthur's field of vision was limited, and he could only see the feet of the two...
"Your Majesty...?"
"Mary is just a political tool, and my marriage with her has no feelings. After she gave birth to a prince, she was useless, and that woman was too long-winded. I wish she died as soon as possible. All methods rescued her." The king's mouth was a series of blame, but his tone was not like blaming people at all, but more like teasing Elaine: "You. You disrupted my plan, How should I compensate for my losses?------Use your body to compensate."
"Hey...!" Elaine groaned: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, don't...not there...!"
"Shy, it's not the first time." Charles VII has no plans to stop, "Ah, this tender and elastic belly will never get tired of touching it. You are truly treasured all over your body. , Joffrey."
Arthur sounded particularly depressed under the bed.
"Yes, it will be seen...!" Elaine whispered, but did not struggle or resist. The other party is the king, an existence that can make Elaine's head move once he gets angry, no matter how wrong he is, he can only endure it.
"Relax. No one will see it. The guards can only patrol outside the tower, and are strictly forbidden to approach the tower." The king added: "It's still growing tonight. We can play slowly."
Elaine clenched her fist tightly around the sheet, and Arthur could vaguely hear the rattling of the kid's fist knuckles.
"You know, the first time you came to treat me with a romantic ailment, I knew that you were a priceless treasure." The king added, "You must not be a doctor, but a witch doctor? Otherwise, there is no way Explain how you sucked the disease out of my body. That's definitely not the realm of medicine."
Elaine did not answer.
"But none of this matters. I will not hand you over to the Church. You are my unique treasure, whether you are a witch doctor or a wizard, as long as you can meet my needs." Charles VII added road. Arthur could vaguely hear the sound of someone rubbing their hands against other people's skin, and Elaine seemed to have been pinned to the bed.
"Before I met you, I was very unlucky. The throne has never been recognized by the nobles. The battle of Vernay was defeated, and even the battlefield of Burgundy was in a hurry. It is because of you that The disease and bad luck have been sucked away from me, and I started to get lucky. The result? A village woman who called herself a saint suddenly appeared and led the army to win the war. I was successfully crowned king. And your adoptive father He also gave me a large sum of money to bring this country back to life. It's all thanks to you, my pure white lucky star, my pure and flawless Joffrey."
(...OMG!)
"The Holy Maiden is just a clown jumping on the beam. She is a **** who came out to chase fame and fortune when the country was in dire straits~IndoMTL.com~ Without her, there will be another [Saint] or [Saint] to save the country and save the country. But you, Joffrey, you are the only one. The one who really turned the fortune of the whole country from behind the scenes was you."
Elaine lets out a series of low breaths: "There...no, no...!"
"I say no, but my body is very upright." Charles VII hummed, ignoring Elaine's weak objection, and continued to rub the opponent: "I won this war. You have saved. You have successfully saved this [nation], and now it is time to save this [individual] me. Come on, relax, Mr. Wizard. Open the door of the dark and deep magic within you, once again Suck away all the disease and bad luck! I finally negotiated terms with the arrogant Duke of Burgundy, but now I have a lot of bad luck (stress) accumulated in my body!"
"Hey!------" Elaine groaned, as if it was a good signal.
Arthur also sprang from under the bed at a lightning-fast speed, first kicking Elaine out, then shooting from behind the French king, using a sharp dagger against Charles VII's neck .
"No, yes, move." Arthur stretched his tone and said coldly.
