Succubus' Manor

The old butler sometimes forgets his age, he thinks he has lived for 100 years!

But he won't remember his real age until his birthday - it turns out he's only 86 this year.

In this age, it is considered a long life.

Many people even think that he is two hundred years old.

But Chi Yan often told him that he looked the same as when they first met.

The old butler is old and has a bad memory, but he can remember things from many years ago clearly, and he knows many things like a treasure.

Sometimes his students would come to see him, and he would be able to drag the students and talk about it for a day.

Until the student brought the student's student to see him, he had more to say.

Odalys is a student of the old housekeeper student. She is a girl who is full of curiosity about everything. She is currently working as an intern at the head teacher's office. She is smarter than ordinary people, and she ranks first in all exams. She graduated at the age of 16. After studying at the head office, she will have the opportunity to enter the palace in the future. Her teacher brought her to the old housekeeper to let her know more.

After all, when she was born, Kolya had already established a country. Although it experienced a period of civil strife, it subsided within ten years, and then the entire continent developed rapidly.

Odalys was born during this decade.

The student asked Odalys to sit on the chair next to her, and then went to pour a glass of sugar water for the old butler himself—this is what the old butler likes to drink now.

The old butler was still articulate now. He glanced at the student and couldn't remember the name of this person, but this did not prevent him from knowing that this person was his student.

After Odalys sat down, the student smiled and said to the old housekeeper, "Teacher, this is my student."

The old butler didn't dare to say anything: "You can teach students?"

The student said helplessly, "Teacher, I am over 40 this year."

The old butler said with disgust: "You are old."

The student wasn't angry either, since he didn't think he was old in his 40s anyway, so he introduced to the old butler, "Teacher, her name is Odalys, and she's at the head teacher's office now, I'll bring her here to meet you. "

The old butler waved his hand: "What can I do? I'm so old that I have to use a cane to walk."

Even though he said so, the old housekeeper was still very proud - he had a small car of his own, and every time he went to the street, his male nanny would ride with him.

Even if his legs and feet are not good, his life has not been affected much by it.

Moreover, His Majesty and Kleist often visit him, every other day.

When the old housekeeper talked to someone, he would always talk about the events of the year.

"At that time, I was the only one in the manor!" The old butler patted the chair he was sitting on and said proudly, "At that time, everyone in the manor listened to me, and before the lord came, I was the one who had the final say. "

Odalys asked the teacher in a low voice: "Teacher, is your lord..."

Her teacher smiled: "It's Your Majesty."

Odalys opened her mouth wide.

She only read about His Majesty's life in a book, but the writing was very cryptic, because His Majesty didn't want to be praised in textbooks, so she just mentioned it. She only knew that His Majesty grew up in the Holy Academy, and then became a The lord, and then came to the holy city, and unified the entire continent after the unification of Kentis. She didn't know more detailed things, and many of the things she had to learn were professional things, and history was just one of them. Just one ring.

Being able to hear people who have experienced that era talk about the past is something that no one can ask for. After all, people who can get close to His Majesty and know everything clearly, except for this old housekeeper and those who have been Apart from His Majesty's servants, there is no one else - except of course His Majesty himself and Lord Kleist.

The old housekeeper: "But if His Majesty doesn't come, I guess I'll stay in that manor until I die of old age, and I may not be able to live now."

The old housekeeper sighed: "It was Tianmu who sent His Majesty to me, and it was Tianmu who heard my prayer."

The old butler babbled without point. He said that His Majesty always worked hard on food before. For example, His Majesty doesn't like traditional thick soup, but prefers soup with less spices.

He also said that His Majesty's favorite thing to do back then was to have people repair toilets.

He talked a lot, but didn't seem to say anything.

In the end, when the old butler talked about His Majesty's coronation, he was already sobbing. He kept repeating a sentence: "It's great that I can meet Your Majesty."

"that is really good."

Odalys quickly handed over a handkerchief, and she looked at her teacher helplessly.

But the teacher just smiled and patted her on the shoulder.

Just when Odalys didn't know what to do, there was a knock on the door, and the nanny hurried over to open the door, and the person who entered said, "Is he awake?"

The nanny's voice was too respectful: "Wake up, wake up, the teacher's students brought the students to see him."

The person who entered the door was amused by the tongue twister, and he said: "Then I will go in directly, and you can prepare us two glasses of grape juice, not wine."

Nanny: "Yes, it must be ready for you."

There seemed to be more than one person entering the door, and the sound of footsteps could tell there was more than one person.

Odalys glanced at her teacher, only to find that the teacher had a look of astonishment—and surprise.

In a blink of an eye, Odalys seemed to have guessed something, she turned her head slowly, and saw two people walking in from the door.

The shorter one is wearing a padded jacket. He is not tall, but he has a good temperament. Compared with his temperament, his face is more outstanding. Odalys has never seen such a good-looking man. She has heard of it before. Those who have met His Majesty all said that His Majesty has a face that both men and women would love. He seems to never grow old, and he is equally handsome every time he appears in front of people.

And the man standing beside His Majesty is the famous Lord Kleist.

It is also the first male queen in history—since His Majesty unified the mainland, he followed the example of Emperor Austin and called him emperor and queen.

But every time anyone would really foolishly call Her Royal Highness Queen Kleist, she would just call her an adult.

Lord Kleist is also like His Majesty, time has not eroded their appearance, but only gave them the maturity and stability left by the years.

Odalys didn't know what to do at this time, but luckily she still had a teacher, so she quickly stood up and saluted His Majesty together with the teacher.

Then she heard His Majesty say, "No, get up."

Only then did she stand upright, but she didn't dare to raise her head, nor did she dare to sit down. She was both excited and restless.

Originally, she thought that her teacher would be very calm, but she accidentally found that the teacher's legs were shaking, which made her feel better.

"Your Majesty!" The old butler cried, as if he saw a parent's child.

Odalys saw His Majesty walking in front of the old butler from the corner of her eye, and the old butler hugged His Majesty's waist directly. His Majesty stroked the old butler's silver hair like coaxing a child, and said softly, "What's wrong? Why are you crying? Did you tell them about the past again?"

The old housekeeper stopped crying, and he proudly said: "Your Majesty, I watched him grow up!"

His Majesty laughed, and said helplessly, "You are right, I was the one you watched growing up."

The old butler turned his head and started to make trouble for Kleist. He pointed at Kleist and said, "I knew he was up to no good when I saw him!"

The old steward said sadly: "Your Majesty doesn't even have any children of your own, and His Majesty's noble lineage cannot be passed down! It's all his fault!"

Kleist stood aside and raised his eyebrows at Chi Yan. Chi Yan sighed: "It's been a long time ago, not to mention my bloodline is probably not very noble."

Odalys next to her took a breath together with her teacher.

Odalys couldn't hold back, her mouth was trembling when she spoke, she said excitedly: "How can His Majesty's blood be not noble?! Only His Majesty's children can inherit everything from His Majesty!"

Chi Yan blinked and asked her teacher, "Are you..."

The teacher quickly introduced herself and Odalys.

After all, not every student of the old housekeeper remembers Chi Yan. He smiled at them warmly, and then said, "Don't believe in the theory of bloodlines. If the theory of bloodlines is useful, many officials should still be working as coolies."

Chi Yan seemed to feel that his words were too firm, so he added another sentence: "Of course, if the parents are smart, the child will not be so stupid, but being smart and being an emperor are two different things."

Chi Yan looked at Odalys: "You are still young, and you will be Kolya's pillar in the future, don't have such a narrow mind."

"I can only do the best I can in my lifetime. As for my successor, I also hope to choose someone with more ability, not better blood."

Odalys lowered her head, and she began to cry for no reason. She lived in a family that worshiped His Majesty since she was a child. Her parents were slaves in the past. After His Majesty abolished slavery, they could hold their heads high and have With her own house and land, she can go to school, and she can still be an official if she is a woman.

Now many officials are women, and many of them hold real power.

Now in Kolya no one can say what a woman should or shouldn't do.

The old butler was still crying in his arms, but Chi Yan had no choice but to help the old butler onto the bed in the bedroom, then sat by the bed and told the old butler what had happened recently.

For example, this year's national income has increased by one-fifth compared with last year. For example, someone has found a new crop. Although the yield is not high, the taste is very good.

Another example is that Kolia's fleet has been able to go further and draw a more complete map.

The more he talked, the more stable the old housekeeper's mood became.

It wasn't until Chi Yan finished speaking that the old housekeeper turned to look at Chi Yan.

At this moment, the old butler's gaze was clear. He grabbed Chi Yan's hand and repeated the sentence again: "Your Majesty, meeting you is the luckiest thing in my life."

Chi Yan patted the back of the old housekeeper's hand and responded, "Me too."

The old butler took a deep breath: "I'm old, Your Majesty, and I'm always confused. If you think of me, come and see me. I won't live long."

Chi Yan: "Everyone is born, old, sick and dies. It is a kind of happiness to live a life free from disease and pain."

The old butler grinned, and then he turned to look at Kleist.

Kleist smiled at him, but it was only a polite smile—after all, Kleist had never liked this old guy.

The old butler held Chi Yan's hand tightly. He looked into Kleist's eyes and said, "If you dare to betray His Majesty, even if I die, I will stay by your side day and night!"

Just as Kleist was about to mock him, Chi Yan turned his head and glanced at him. Kleist could only say, "I know in my heart that I will never betray him."

The old butler was satisfied, and he started rambling again. He said that he knew that Kleist was a demon when he saw Kleist for the first time.

He also said that Kleist must have a terrifying conspiracy.

But at the end, the old butler had tears streaming from the corners of his eyes, and said in a choked voice, "Your Majesty, you have to be well, and you have to take care of yourself."

Chi Yan nodded, and he pulled the broken hair from the old butler's forehead behind the old butler's ears, and said softly, "I know, don't worry."

The old butler laughed foolishly.

The old butler died at the age of 92.

He has taught more than 30 students in his life, [-] of whom have sat on the table of the central government.

He has been Chi Yan's housekeeper all his life, without any official position, and rejected the invitation to live in the palace. He has no children, and treats Chi Yan as his own.

On the day of the funeral, the emperor of Kolya and his queen presided over the funeral in person, and named the old housekeeper the first and last grand duke after the founding of the country.

— Grand Duke John Davis.
