The Amber Sword: Act 115 Dragon of Darkness and the Queen of Empires
The following discussion became lengthy and meaningless. The secret letter was full of speculation and lacked tangible evidence. Even the noble present could not really suspect that the prince of the empire would be the betrayer --, although they did know someone. The betrayal of the empire's interests, the occupation of Anzlova and the accurate judgment of Gorgon Ravine people tell it all. Especially today, when the southern part of the empire is in danger, Her Majesty is unlikely to easily convict such a sensitive and supreme figure. Some people speculate that this may be a divorced strategy, and some people like -- are gloating. Most of the time, there was a feud with the Prime Minister of the Empire.
But no matter which kind of thing, it always reminds me of rumors about Helix Archduke since recently. First, Hana Duke, then the prime minister, and who will be next?
Everyone secretly felt that an invisible hand was making waves, but who this individual was was, but it was speculative.
Her majesty also frowned, and seemed to others to feel threatened by these two things.
All in all, because of this unexpected secret letter, the tea party on this day can be regarded as unhappy, but Her Majesty the Queen did not finally make a statement. nobles will inevitably guess in private who will be unlucky next, and looks like His Majesty. There is still trust in the prime minister, so the people of make a move are afraid that they will be unlucky, or some other turning point. Everyone has a optimistic attitude. There is no doubt that the event of this day has left everyone Daydreaming Space.
But few people know that The Silver Queen opened her tightly frowning brows after one's own courtiers -- and especially Nederhoven Jr. left. Her mood seemed to return to the same as before, or it was just an outward appearance. She looked at the back of the ministers and smiled slightly.
The supreme lady stood under the arch window of the living room and looked at the rose garden outside, her gaze even crossed the gate of St. Cantipei's Palace, and she seemed a little erratic.
"Yeah, cause them some trouble. Poor old Vala, I hope your eyes don't notice this direction too soon," Constance said to himself: "Unfortunately, time is too tight, if I wake up earlier How good ... Floral Leaf Shire, Helix Archduke, I hope that there is nothing wrong with the straw bag of Rodney. I have n’t seen it in the mountains -- already of Alkash for forty years. The sharp cliffs above the snow and ice have not faded in memory so far. . "
"Darus, did you see --?"
Her Majesty stood quietly in front of the window, and she raised her chin slightly, as if facing an invisible audience.
“I heard that it ’s your grandson. It ’s a pity that I do n’t have time to see your descendant in already. Earth Sword will eventually fall into his hands. This may be the Mother Marsha ’s affirmation for us in the underworld. I only hope Gwendolyn They can find him as soon as possible, Darus, I believe you will definitely understand my choice now. "
The hall calmed down, and the whispers carried in the wind through the courtyard woods neither answered yes nor no, but The Silver Queen as if already Know the answer.
She finally glanced at this holy palace of Kirrlutzian for thousands of years, then turned her head back, and stopped looking at the courtiers outside the St. Cantipei's Palace gate.
It's time to know the answer.
The royal carriage is ready.
...
Within the autumn hazel manor, holding his finger to calculate the time, Scarlett realized that already had been placed under house arrest in this old castle outside Lucita for nearly two months. The landscape of the Vanquer area also changed after autumn twilight. In the deep winter, although it hasn't snowed south of the Tieji Mountains, gradually cold temperatures and increasing winter clothing coats also illustrate the changes of the four seasons.
A few days ago, exactly one month ago, the news about Lucita could still be accurately transmitted to the castle, but with the Anzlova and the empire's entire southern war situation, the atmosphere of the capital was also One day is tense and one day has been rumored recently that Helix Archduke has betrayed the empire and the prime minister. They are suspected of collaborating with each other. Although this kind of gossip makes people feel more or less incredible, every resident living in the Imperial City can at least Really know one thing.
The guards and patrol cavalry stationed in the Imperial City are obviously stricter than in the past. In the memories of the older generation, this was something that happened only 60 years ago, as if with the Aura of the war unique to that era. Everyone started to feel nervous.
This is the same for the maids in the manor.
Bertha recently has reduced the number of outings. After all, at this time, the inner city and the outer city will become extremely restless. Some people will take advantage of this opportunity to come out and make waves, not to mention the Lucita inner city atmosphere is tense, ordinary people will also Fear of being drawn into that unpredictable vortex. And for one reason or another, the outside news gradually became isolated inside the manor house, and less and less information came from the Anzlova war. People gradually became more and more concerned about whether the empire would lose Anzeluta. , Not the security from Aouine's Lord Count.
So there are very few news about Brando's.
In fact, since the fall of Greystone town, I have never heard any rumors discussing this Lord Count.
For Bertha and the others, the only thing that is fortunate is that at least their female Lord Count still believes that the legendary Mr. Trentheim Thane is safe and sound, otherwise they really do n’t know how to comfort the latter, although in private, they or It is more or less that the unlucky Lord Count most likely died of already in Anzlova.
Bertha was drying clothes on the terrace of the manor as usual, and suddenly she saw the carriage passing through the woodland like Spectre. When she saw the Emblem on the carriage, she screamed in shock, Quickly stumbled from the third floor of the castle to the lobby, and when she pushed open the heavy wooden door in the lobby, she wanted to remind the owner of the manor of the manor who came, but closed carefully Mouth.
There are more than Young Lady girls in the hall.
In fact, the mountain people waitresses are now standing tremblingly behind the left and right rows of Scarlett, and another woman is standing directly in front of the female Count. In fact, in this empire, few people dare to treat her simply as a woman. The Silver Queen stands in front of this mountain people girl. Except for her driver and attendant, she does not bring anyone, and her driver At this moment was waiting outside the manor, and the attendant also obeyed her order to stand outside the door, which means that at this moment the supreme one of the empire was facing Scarlett alone.
What the mountain people girls are worried about at this moment is not that their Lord Count is saying something unpleasant, but they are afraid that she will suddenly take action on Her Majesty and kill her here, but there is a history. Yes, although it is unbelievable that Her Majesty did not hold him accountable.
This is the first time in two months that Constance has come to see Scarlett in person.
"I think you understand the purpose of my coming here today," The Silver Queen is not going to turn around today, but stared straight at the theme of Scarlett: "I need your reply today."
But this does not move Scarlett.
mountain people girl pursed up lips, staring at Her Majesty severely, if possible, she stabbed in the past like a last shot, but this time she found that she could not summon Azure Spear, just a moment ago Alvina warned her, let her be careful to protect herself, as the owner of Azure Spear, must be responsible for her, and must not die in this damn place without meaning. This is the lady's original words, but Scarlett always thinks she has something to say.
"You thought you did n’t speak, I would take you no way. You forgot what I said last time. For you, I can declare war on any side in this world without hesitation, whether it be Aouine, or a Buga person, you should clearly understand my determination and not to provoke me. I want to kill your Lord Thane, no more difficult than pinching a bug, little girl. "Constance replied lightly.
Scarlett froze slightly when he heard this sentence, but it was not fear, but anger, Her Majesty clearly saw the anger that burst out in the eyes of this mountain people girl.
She did not speak, but if the anger in her eyes could express her heart, Constance felt that already was burned to death by countless times.
Constance apparently estimated such a response early.
She sighed softly: "Silly boy."
"You must think that I must stand on the opposite side of you, but have you ever thought that I am the emperor of the empire, and your Lord Thane is just a Aouine little Count, except me and you There is no conflict other than belonging to you. In fact, not only that, I can even help him and let him step into the sky. If he is willing to submit to me, what is the difference between working for me and working for him? "
Her Majesty changed her breath rarely and said softly. This remark made Bertha and the others on the side almost unbelievable to one's own ears, but their first reaction was to look at one's own Lord Count in surprise, thinking about this lady Who is sacred, could it be that is the illegitimate daughter of Her Majesty?
Of course, they also dare to stay in their minds for a moment, and they quickly hurried to the back of their minds, as if just thinking of it, already will be on gallows.
Fortunately, The Silver Queen obviously does not have mind reading, so it is impossible to know what weird and weird thoughts are turning in these maids' hearts. After she has said this, she is waiting for the answer from Scarlett. Today's The Silver Queen seems more confident than that day, as if there is no fear that the mountain people girl will reject her.
Scarlett listened to her, his eyes moved slightly, but she looked at her with deep suspicion.
"Don't believe it?" Constance asked with dissatisfaction, but this stubborn girl did make her feel a little frustrated. Whether it was a clever tongue or a firm and determined, she could find a solution. , But it seemed that Scarlett behaved appropriately to her daughter -- mountain people. Her silent suspicion caused Her Majesty to think that she had met the daughter of a farmer from Ludwig or the village of Metz, both blind and stubborn. And they always have an instinctual suspicion of any discourse.
Scarlett still does not answer, but already represents her attitude.
If it was changed in the past, The Silver Queen was mostly displeased, but today, she winked at the maids, telling the latter to retreat in a sincerity and horror. After everyone left, the queen His Majesty only said, "I know you don't believe me, but I don't have much time. I just want to tell you that I and your Lord Thane are both humanoid."
"You think I don't know him," Constance looked at Scarlett, with a sense of superior superiority: "You are wrong, little girl, I know him better than you, I know who he is."
"You are the daughter of mountain people, then you must have heard those legends about mountains and forests, right?" She did not give Scarlett a chance to refute, but asked immediately.
Scarlett is still silent on this issue.
But The Silver Queen does not need this young girl to answer, because she understands that the legend of mountain people about the forest is passed down from generation to generation. Although they migrated along the mountains, the ancient tradition passed down from generation to generation.
"Then you should understand that in the legend of Black Forest, bloodline of mountain people is flowing with noble blood, part of which even came from the era before War of the Holy Saints. Dragon of Darkness ruled the Miirna's empire, but Druid also told him Surrender, in fact, is much more than that, Holy Cathedral of Earth, Leonin, why not, the eternal king has another subordinate, that is mountain people. "
Constance smiled slightly: "You swear allegiance to your Lord Thane, not just pure girl feelings, you already know his identity, -- from the moment he gave you Golden Apple"
"Who will Fairy give apples to? Only the sages."
"He owns Dragon of Darkness' inheritance."
The Silver Queen said this softly.
mountain people girl suddenly looks like an electric shock raises head, staring at her fiercely, she overwhelmed Constance with such an overwhelming reaction, and the latter froze slightly, and then realized that the other party was suspicious of her supremacy. Lord Thane is not good. Her Majesty the Queen couldn't help crying and laughing at this moment. She had seen people with a stubborn brain, but she was so desperate like this little girl. She still saw her for the first time. Constance for a moment couldn't help but feel a bit sorry, thinking about herself Didn't meet this dumb girl earlier.
She smeared Brando belly in her heart, and then she stretched out her right hand to let Scarlett see a serpentine ring on her right index finger.
Scarlett stared at the ring with vigilance.
Of course she has recognized the meaning of this ring for so long around Brando.
"Don't worry, I'm not showing you my identity. This ring is optional to me. The Origin Association they claim to be a tight organization is just like this to me," Her Majesty gently removed. Put the ring down and throw it aside, dismissing this token, which is so important to the Origin Association believers, as if it was rubbish, let it clang into the dark corner, and did n’t even look at it, she replied: I just tell you why I know the secret of your adult. I know even more. Aouine has no secret in my eyes. I even know that the death of Amman is related to him. "
She laughed softly: "Origin Association penetrated Holy Cathedral of Fire, because your Lord Thane's intervened, but suffered a big loss. I kept it secret for you for so long, and I think you should give me something back."
But Scarlett raises head watched Her Majesty, then lowered her head again, and shook her head stubbornly again.
"Do you think I'm lying?"
"I'm with Lord Thane because he is Lord Thane." As if it was a world-breaker, the mountain people girl replied: "Lord Thane has never abandoned me and I will never leave him."
"What a silly kid," Constance said for a moment, "What can he make you so fascinated?"
She sighed again and replied softly: "Okay, you are really a girl, then Scarlett, do you really understand your Lord Thane's idea, what does he want to do, what is his purpose? It should be understood that he is different from your everyone. He walks far ahead of you. Do you think you can keep up with him by relying only on you now? "
For the first time, the look in Scarlett's eyes slightly loosened.
"Did you understand?" The Silver Queen smiled slightly: "I said that your Lord Thane and I are an humanoid, because both he and I know the nature of this world and are not affected by the myths and legends of the past millennia. -- Scarlett, You have seen the drunken dreams of noble outside, and you have also dealt with the Demonic Cultist with your Lord Thane, so you should understand the threat hidden under the superficial and flourishing appearance of this world, you think it is like me and him Will people who understand this clearly greedy the power of the world, it is just the self-righteous myth forget it/that's all of the short-sighted generation. "
She said these words to mountain people girl extend the hand.
"Come on, Scarlett. I'll show you what I and your Lord Thane are doing. You will understand that you are helping me, but you are helping him, but his actions are aimless, and I know more clearly what I want to do forget it/that's all -- "
Constance stared at Scarlett's eyes, and continued:
"Remember what I said to you, you won't kill me, and you won't kill me, you will quickly understand why."
"Azure Spear, is on my side, Scarlett."
"You won't regret it."
mountain people girl stood there suddenly, watching the imperial supreme one's hand stretched towards her, he felt a little hesitant.
Correct, she heard a clear voice in her heart.
"Don't believe her, Scarlett."
This is the voice of Alvina.
