into the night.

In the side room of the main hall, there is a huge bath.

Two girls with wet clothes were soaked in the hot water. They were leaning on the stone wall of the bathtub, one on the left and the other on the right. The curly hair on their heads was disheveled. Their beautiful faces were covered with mist of steaming water, and their fair skin was covered with water. Covered by a thin layer of fog.

A bright red rose petal on the water makes the skin whiter and more delicate.

Lumina and Shengwu both closed their eyes and let the hot water wash away their fatigue.

"The eldest prince, eldest princess and second princess were all born to the queen, but I was the only one born to my father's mistress. The elves are very particular about having one partner for life. In order to avoid royal scandals, they secretly adopted me into the name of the queen, but the claim was that The queen gave birth to me while she was out playing, but she is in poor health and has been pampered in the palace. It’s just that after so many years, you can probably see what kind of life I have been living today. "

Lumina's slender eyelashes were stained with moisture, her cherry-colored lips parted, her tone was neither cold nor indifferent.

"What do you want?" Sheng Wu didn't have the patience to listen to her misery, so she just stopped her with one sentence.

"You..." Seeing how cold she was, Lumina opened her eyes and gave her a cold look. She was a little annoyed that she didn't play her cards according to the routine, but she didn't dare to argue with Sheng Wu about this nonsense. If necessary, show your cards directly.

"I want the throne and be the next Elf King." She raised her eyes slightly, her green pupils filled with ambition and perseverance.

This time, Sheng Wu slowly opened her eyes and turned to look at her with a mocking look in her eyes.

"If I'm not wrong, the queen's mother's family should be one of the top nobles in the Elf Kingdom, and you are just the child of a mistress. What kind of capital do you have? What's more, your magic can't even defeat the second-level Silver Guard."

She pointed out Lumina's shortcomings directly and to the point.

Lumina's magic seemed powerful, but in fact it was just to bluff humans like Lucius. Although it was somewhat useful, she was not even qualified to rebel in front of the Elf King.

Hearing this, Lumina frowned, but did not refute, because what she said was true.

but.

"I have nothing now, but I have ambitions. I can fight for them even if I don't have connections or resources. What I lack is just a matter of time. Just because I am the bloodline of the Elf King, I am qualified to fight for that." Location!"

There is no rule in the Elf Kingdom that women cannot be the Elf King, or in other words, no one has set this record yet.

Besides...it's not that she doesn't have anything, it's just that she can't talk to Lilian about these things.

Seeing the stubbornness on her face, Sheng Wu narrowed her beautiful eyes that were especially sparkling due to the heat, and she curled her lips and snorted.

"Having ambition without brains is arrogance. The queen has noticed your restlessness after what happened today. You'd better be able to deal with her. Don't let me suffer with you."

"Don't worry, the queen doesn't dare to operate on you and Lucius yet."

Lumina frowned, then her eyes were helpless and cold, "It's just a pity. Originally, I wanted to sneak you in without disturbing anyone, but I didn't expect that you and Lucius would be exposed to the Elf Kingdom. .”

Today, Hill was not afraid of her identity at all and stopped people directly. If she had been stronger, perhaps this would not have happened.

Hearing this, Shengnu, who was slouching slightly, suddenly paused, then turned to look at her, turned sideways and swam towards her using the power of water.

Lumina looked at her movements and couldn't understand the expression in her slender eyes, but her heart tightened slightly as she watched her movements with bated breath.

"What a pity..."

Sheng Wu came closer to her and leaned directly to Lumina's pointed elf ears. The curly hair behind her was soaked and stuck to the white swan neck.

"Isn't this just what you wanted?" He raised his lips slightly, using words that only two people could hear.

In an instant, Lumina's green pupils, which had been helpless and pitiful just now, suddenly shrank. She turned her head and stared at Sheng Wu with a deep and wary look, with a hint of murderous intent in her eyes.

"What did you say?" But she raised her lips slightly and her eyes were innocent and surprised.

"If you really want to take me and Lucius into the Elf Kingdom quietly, you won't go to the city gate openly during the day. If I guessed correctly, there should be other ways to leave the Elf Kingdom besides the city gate." It's just that the channel is special.

Seeing that she was so good at pretending, Sheng Wu's eyes became more interested. She was very curious as to how Lumina could fall in love with Lucius from the beginning and finally turn into such a calculating and clever disguise.

"What's more, even if Lucius and I are discovered to be humans and let the Elf King know about it, the person who benefits the most from the beginning to the end is you. After all, the elves in the Elf Kingdom should know by now. Two new species called humans came back, and their health was not as bad as rumored. You entered the eyes of the elves in the most non-aggressive and attractive way. And you took us into the palace, Meeting the Elf King in person will let everyone know that you have a good relationship with us, and secondly, you will gain the Elf King's attention again through Lucius and me."

Sheng Wu raised her head and scanned the surrounding luxurious palaces.

"No, the new palace given to you by the Elf King is the best evidence." After a pause, "Oh, by the way, you are also trying to use the image of trying hard to hide our identity and not hesitate to conflict with the Silver Guard to make Lucius And I feel good about you and apologize. Unfortunately, I am not the idiot Lucius is, and he is not such a holy mother."

This is also the reason why Lucius just said that he would help her gain power, but did not say that he would help Lumina gain power, because he knew that what Lumina asked for would affect many things, and the road to the throne was to use blood. Come to pay homage.

This goes against his good faith.

As for Lumina helping them at the city gate, he counted it as Lumina's request to come to Shengnu, and it was not counted as something they owed her.

Lumina listened to her words calmly, looking at her coldly with her bright green pupils, and then suddenly smiled, her delicate and fair face instantly resembled a blooming poppy, poisonous and beautiful.

"Sure enough, I made the right choice to cooperate with you. Not only are you smart, you are even scary smart."

Her green tea look of innocence and surprise just now dissipated instantly, and turned into a shrewd look that had been calculated for a long time.

"What about you? You clearly guessed my plan, but you still want to reverse the facts in front of the Elf King, saying that I saved you, not that I was saved by you."

She vaguely guessed why Sheng Wu did this, but she needed her confirmation because it was too scary for this woman to speculate on her intentions.
