The guard who was led away exclaimed after returning to the scene.
David patted his head and grinned, "Maybe I'm hallucinating from the hallucinogenic mushrooms I ate. It's a small problem. By the way, help me pour out this pot of soup and make it again. The mushrooms in this forest are not edible, so everyone should be careful."
......
"What's going on? What's this inexplicable malice?"
Hardy, who was practicing singing in the carriage, suddenly shuddered and had a premonition that something bad was going to happen.
Could it be that there really is a traitor targeting me?
Chapter 6: The younger brother sings and the older sister cries (K, in )
"This bastard actually went there!"
The eldest princess Chris was quite troubled after reading Ron's letter.
The damn Ron not only rushed to the mine alone, but also made detailed arrangements for the next step.
Yes, what Ron wrote in the letter was single-handed, and he did not reveal the existence of Petunia.
He's like a gambler.
He was betting that Chris would say yes.
Chris was very angry. She felt like a little snake being held at a disadvantage.
"Want to go?"
Chris, who had been sleepless all night, scratched her hair. Her mind was in a mess and she just wanted to have a good sleep.
If Ron died she would probably also collapse, once she experienced that feeling of relief she would never forget it.
He is like catnip, and I am the cat.
"Someone, help me call Captain Felissa."
Chris was extremely conflicted and buried her chin in her arms. Now she could only pin her hopes on Felissa, who was at the seventh level.
"Understood. Please wait a moment."
The maid waiting outside the door responded.
Listening to the maid's footsteps going away, Chris closed her eyes and planned to take a nap, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't fall asleep, and the dark circles around her eyes became heavier and heavier.
"Your Highness, what do you want to talk to me about?"
I don't know how long it took, but an old female voice sounded in the study.
Chris rubbed her eyes and forced herself to cheer up. She looked at the leader of the Knights standing in front of the table and said slowly, "Felisa, I have something important for you to do."
Felisa: "Your Highness, please tell me. I will do my best as long as I can."
Chris: "Please take 5,000 knights to guard the area near Duke Laust's mine. If there is unrest inside, lead a surprise attack. If there is no abnormality, try to rescue Ron."
"You want me to lead the troops to fight? Is that true?"
Felisa frowned and said, "Your Highness, you may not know that I am too old to lead troops to fight. Besides, my duty is to protect your safety. Other people's affairs have nothing to do with me. I hope Your Highness will not embarrass me."
She decisively chose to refuse Chris's request. Doing such a thing would be tantamount to directly breaking off relations with Duke Lost. Once a war broke out, she would definitely be a shield.
In order to spend her later years in peace and retire early, she just wants to stay away from trouble.
If she had not received great favor from Chris's mother when she was young, she would not have stayed by Chris's side.
Chris put Ron's letter in the book and said, "But I have reasons to go. If Captain Felissa is unwilling to help me... then I will go there myself."
"Hey, Your Highness, why are you so willful?"
Felisa shook her head and said, "Ron is a playboy and amorous. He is not worthy of Your Highness. If he dies, it will be beneficial to us. Your Highness must put the overall situation first and not let his emotions get in the way. The position of king cannot fall into the hands of the second prince, otherwise the Norman Kingdom will suffer and the country will be destroyed.
Please think twice, Your Highness. Once the Holy Lady of the Holy See of Light arrives in the royal city, we will have no chance of turning the tables. The savior Holy Lady that people talk about is actually a murderous witch. No less than one million civilians have died because of her.
Does Your Highness want to watch your own people become living sacrifices?"
Chris crossed her arms and said, "It is precisely because of the difficult situation that we have no choice. Before, the Third Prince said that the General would find a way to deal with the Saint of the Holy See of Light, but what was the result?
A week has passed and there has been no movement. It is obvious that they are just trying to reap the benefits.
We can't trust outsiders, we can only rely on ourselves, and the key to breaking the deadlock lies in Ron. Since it has come to this, I will put all my chips on him. Even if I lose, I want to lose standing up. "
Felisa asked, “What if it fails?”
Chris thought for a moment and said, "If we fail, it means that the matter is hopeless. I will then take you away. With my talent, I will be able to fight back in less than ten years. As long as the green mountains are there, there will be no shortage of firewood. What we lack most now is time."
Felissa breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this. What she was most worried about was that Chris would be so stubborn that they would die together.
In her opinion, the kingdom would have a future only if Chris was alive. The temporary retreat was to accumulate strength to fight back. If Chris died, no one would be able to avenge the civilians.
"What do we do now?" Felisa asked.
"You go gather the troops, and I'll go find someone."
Chris's eyes were dim.
Felisa: “Who?”
The image of Cynthia emerged in Chris's mind: "A culprit who is more likely to cause trouble than to achieve success."
Felisha: “???”
.......
"Ivna, let's run!"
In the living room, Cynthia's face was filled with worry. She was also panicked after receiving Ron's letter.
"Aunt, what's wrong with you?" Yvna peeled grapes carelessly. "You've been acting strange since yesterday, and it reached its peak this morning. If you have anything to say, you can tell me. Maybe I can help you think of a solution."
Cynthia, fidgeting, paced back and forth in front of Yvna: “If I say Ron is a big devil, do you believe it?”
Yvna nodded seriously: “I believe it, and then what?”
Cynthia: "Then just run away, what else can you do!"
Yvonne threw the peeled grapes into her mouth and swallowed them in one gulp: "Why are you running away? Even if you run, where can you run to? I think you are talking nonsense because you are asleep."
Cynthia opened her mouth: “I…”
Yes, even if you run, where can you go?
What's the point of Ron simply running away when he holds Evena's lifeline?
Just when Cynthia was doubting her life, a maid leaned over to Yvonne's ear and said something, and then the latter exclaimed: "What? The Grand Princess is coming to my house?"
"!!!"
Sensing that something bad was going to happen, Cynthia ran away without looking back.
Ivna looked at the latter's back and shouted quickly: "Auntie, where are you going? There is a window over there, you can't jump out!"
......
In the evening, Penny's convoy stopped in another forest.
Ron, who had just finished his hypnosis check-in, was lying on the bed enjoying Penny's gentle massage.
Poor Penny not only had to move herself while working, but also had to obediently give Ron a massage after work, and she couldn't stop for a moment even if her whole body was sore.
It's a pity that Ron is not invincible without any physical improvement. He can't fight around the clock, so he didn't fight again after playing a game in the morning.
Compared to the fourth-level Penny, his endurance and recovery speed are not that strong, and generally speaking, the former has the advantage.
So the monotonous massage lasted for several hours.
The long journey was boring, and Ron couldn't find anything else to do except bullying Penny and Hardy.
In order to maximize the fun, he has to use his limited energy in the right place.
So he is waiting, waiting for someone who can sing.
"The destined person should be here soon, go open the window."
Ron estimated the time and gave an order.
"Oh~"
Penny rubbed her sore wrists, crawled to the window and opened the special wooden window. She thought about it and pulled down the curtains to block all sight.
"Sister, Baba, are you busy?"
Not long after the window was opened, Hardy's voice came in.
Penny glanced at Ron and replied helplessly, "We're talking about something. What's wrong? What do you want?"
"Well...I recently learned a new song and wanted to sing it to you, my sister. I hope you can give me some advice."
In order to prevent himself from making a fool of himself, he deliberately sent the nearby guards away and asked them to stay away.
Well, only my sister is worthy of hearing my beautiful singing voice.
Hardy comforted himself in his heart that at least he felt good when he sang to himself.
"it's up to you."
Penny's voice was heard from the carriage, and it sounded just as cold and clear as usual.
But when Hardy heard these words, he became extremely excited.
Since my sister didn't refuse, it means she agreed.
Sure enough, "Ba Ba" did not lie to him, his sister really liked listening to music.
Hadi suddenly became more confident. He said in a hoarse voice, "Sister, you have to listen carefully. You are the first woman to listen to my singing."
After that, he began to sing: "I heard that an actor came to the royal city, and it happened to be the Duke's daughter's wedding. The stage was full of tears, but the audience didn't know how many love, hate and bitterness there were.
I heard that there was a strange thing in Wangcheng. In the middle of the night, a woman in red was singing opera lyrics. She was singing the false oath that the young man made yesterday, and whose shadow was reflected by the red candle tonight.
A promise from you cannot be exchanged for a thousand gold coins. I am afraid of making mistakes in this life. How many joys and sorrows are written into a play lyrics. Who on the stage sings about the past in the mortal world..."
Although Hardy's singing was average, his lyrics were well chosen.
It only took Ron a second to understand the meaning hidden in the lyrics. What a coincidence! The Duke's daughter refers to Penny, and the actor is Hardy himself.
From another perspective, Ron is the one who made Penny cry, while Hardy is the confused audience member.
Ron, in high spirits, pushed Petunia against the window, revealing her eyes and half of her head. Her expression was vaguely visible under the half-covered curtains.
Hardy, standing outside the carriage, looked up at Penny's face with joy, unaware of what the people behind her were doing.
"Snapped!"
Ron lifted up his skirt and clapped his hands.
So Penny said, "Sing louder."
Under the night sky, Penny completed the calibration with a slightly blushing face.
On the ground, Hadi saw his sister blushing, and he guessed that his sister must be shy because of hearing his singing.
He thanked Ron mentally for a second before singing even harder.
......
Hardy considered himself the greatest singer.
You see, even the proud and aloof Penny would blush because of his song.
When she's getting into the mood, she'll shake her head to her own rhythm, which is so adorable.
What’s even more interesting is that the faster I sing, the more my sister sways her body. It’s clear that she is finding ways to praise herself.
"Ba Ba" is right, my sister is a girl with a sharp tongue but a soft heart, and beautiful singing is the shortcut to reach her heart.
When he was singing more intensely, he even heard the sound of applause.
Judging from the frequency, this was not sent by my sister. It was most likely "Ba Ba" who was clapping.
"It seems my singing voice can even capture men. It's invincible!"
Hardy thought.
Hardy was immersed in his own singing and was full of confidence. For a moment, he even felt that he was a genius among geniuses.
"Sing...keep on, um~"
