The host is beautiful in every plane

Chapter 90 Crystal Slipper, Don't Run 18
"Rilla, tell me why you are here." The Duke stroked the scar on Gu Jin's body with a distressed face and asked Gu Jin.

Gu Jin looked at the Duke and explained everything in detail.

The more he heard the back, the Duke's face became greener and greener, and the Duke's slight anger could be seen from his expression.

"I didn't realize that Blanchett was that kind of person at the beginning." He looked resentful, and then stroked Gu Jin's wound with distressed face, "Rilla, it's dad who killed you."

"It's not my father's fault, it's because Blanchett is too bad." Gu Jin smiled slightly at the Duke, and there was something pitiful in her expression.

The duke's eyes were full of distress.

The father and daughter chatted like this until Gu Jin's body gradually regained consciousness.

The Duke supported Gu Jin and walked at the bottom of the foggy cliff.

Looking at the still distant and blurry road ahead, Gu Jin turned her head to look at the Duke: "Father, where do you live?"

"Just ahead, almost there." The Duke looked at his daughter lovingly.

"When I fell off the cliff, the horse had already died, but I was still alive." The Duke looked sad when he recalled the heroic scene, "I can only eat the horse's corpse in order to survive. gone."

The Duke closed his eyes, that horse is also the Duke's favorite horse, just like a family member.

If Gu Jin was allowed to devour the little black horse, Gu Jin would definitely have the same unbearable heart.

"Later, I buried the horse's skeleton on the tree that I fell from, and I built a house out of wood there." The Duke opened his eyes and looked forward, "I use polished stones every day as The trees were chopped down with an axe, and finally piled up to make a small log cabin. In winter, I would use logs to drill logs to make a fire to make a fire."

"Father." Gu Jin looked at the Duke with distressed eyes.

The Duke looked at his daughter tenderly: "Rilla, I never thought that the tricks in those ancient books would be realized in me."

The Duke smiled optimistically.

"It's just ahead." The Duke pointed forward.

Gu Jin raised her eyes, and she saw a small wooden house under a giant tree not far away.

Although it is a log cabin, it is actually not small at all, on the contrary, it is a bit large.

"Come in, it's cold outside." The Duke pushed Gu Jin into the cabin.

Gu Jin was surprised to see that almost everything inside was complete.

Everything in the front hall is exactly the same as Zhuangzi where Gu Jin lived for decades, except that all the gorgeous cushions have been replaced by the leaves in the forest.

But in Gu Jin's opinion, these are better than those fancy things.

Gu Jin sat on a wooden chair covered with leaves and looked at the Duke obediently.

The Duke patted Gu Jin's head: "Rilla, sit here first, and I'll find you something."

"Okay." Gu Jin smiled obediently at the Duke.

Compared with the harmony between the father and daughter here, the palace and the palace seemed extraordinarily flustered.

The king lasted the whole night, but at last he could not hold on, and died.

After spending the last period of time with the king, Kit logically inherited the throne and became the new king of the country.

After the king's mourning period passed, Kit quickly issued an edict.

The next day, the guard who had originally announced the palace ball came to the palace wall again, and said arrogantly:

"Our new king is about to announce who our new queen is!"

The common people in this country love to gossip.

The girls of each family brought back the news of the mysterious girl after the dance that day, and Cinderella's identity has become a topic of discussion among neighbors living in the city for several days.

At this time, Blanchett also brought her two daughters—Anatasha and Dusula—under the palace walls.

They are all looking forward to it.

It has been several days since Blanchett "disposed" Gu Jin, and the mother and daughter of Blanchett have almost forgotten Cinderella.

The guard began to read Kit's edict--
He coughed lightly, and the crowd fell silent in an instant.

The guard was still dressed in the same golden light that day, and his voice was extremely resonant:

"Now—announce the edict of the extremely wise new king!!"

"The edict said--
His Majesty the new king has chosen the destined queen at the court ball a few days ago!that's the one"

Before the guard could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by the rustling discussions below.

"I guess it must be that mysterious beautiful girl!!!"

"I think so too!"

"That's right, our prince. No, it's the new king who invited that lady to dance! That lady must be His Majesty's appointed bride!!"

The conversation below was all about Cinderella, who was dressed up at the ball that day.

"Quiet!!! Quiet!!!" The guard emphasized the issue of order over and over again, and he looked angrily at the crowd below who were still discussing non-stop.

Finally, I don't know how long it took, after the crowd finally quieted down, the guard coughed lightly and continued to read--
"The candidate for the bride is." The guard glanced at the crowd, and then said, "It's the lady who appeared at the ball and danced the first dance with His Majesty the King."

There were bursts of cheers from the crowd, as if they were happier than marrying their daughter.

The guard coughed again: "His Majesty the King will search for that lady all over the world, and only the one who can wear the glass slipper left by that lady that day can become the new queen!"

Blanchett, Anastasia, and Dusula all looked at each other with complicated expressions.

With a smile on Blanchett's face, she nodded towards Anastasia and Dusula: "Don't worry, Cinderella will never appear again."

Anastasia and Dusula were relieved when they heard their mother's assurance. They were afraid that Cinderella would appear suddenly.

If this is the case, not only will they not even have to be the new queen, but it will be very difficult to save their lives.

But they didn't know that Cinderella was still alive and was with the Duke who they thought had died by accident.

At this moment, the guard has read all the summons.

At this moment, a man wearing a hooded suit suddenly walked out from behind the guard.

The man took off his hood, revealing the handsome face of the new King Kit.

The guards were startled, and the people below were also startled, including the mother and daughter of Blanchett who were already secretly thinking about their own plans, and they half-knelt down to salute:
"See His Majesty the King."

Blanchett reprimanded the two daughters in a low voice: "Tasha, Dusula, don't be rude!"

Their eyes were almost glued to Kit.
