Be a mermaid after 1000 years

Although Steward Shardy was a little gloomy, the sun was still bright, and he didn't hide behind the clouds to match his mood. The wind was not strong, and the luminous roses in the garden grew hundreds of buds overnight. , came bursts of fragrance, it is really a very good day.

As usual, in this kind of weather, the young duke will enjoy his sumptuous breakfast on the terrace. The kitchen has already been prepared. The butler has chosen a set of bone china tea sets with butterfly and creeper patterns, and brews them in the tea sets harvested and processed in the territory. The best black tea, and adjusted the position of the tableware according to the angle. Chardy is always very persistent in such details.

Everything is ready, and in 5 minutes, His Excellency the Duke will go downstairs.

But obviously, today is a special day for the Duke. The black tea was replaced with a new round, and after Edson came out to inquire once, Duke Hernand slowly went downstairs, and the housekeeper signaled that the kitchen could start.

His Excellency the Duke wore a military uniform spring suit today, with a stand-up collar, narrow waist, and well-tailored fit. Although it is not a new season's new style, it definitely has a different style when worn on an adult. Butler Chardy's eyes are moist, if The old Duke is still alive, and he must be very relieved. Blanche has been a sensible and lovely child since he was a child, and he is even more outstanding when he grows up.

Before Xialdi's moved tears dried up, the Duke had already walked from the dark place to the bright place, and the butler's eyes widened in a 'swish'.

"My lord, what's the matter with your face?"

Blanche Hernand was very annoyed. When he got up this morning and brushed his teeth in front of the mirror, he was startled. His face and neck were all blue. He didn't take it seriously last night. He went back to his room and fell asleep directly. I didn't expect that black fish to be quite strong. If I knew it, I would have tried the strange method of kneading a boiled egg that he said.

Blanche dawdled for a while before going downstairs. First, he rummaged through boxes and cabinets to find a spring suit from last year. This year, a large lapel was popular and couldn't cover the marks on his neck. As for his face, there was nothing he could do. He couldn't be made to look like a mermaid. Applying makeup and powder, fortunately, it is not too obvious on the face.

He was a little uncomfortable being asked by Chardy, but he was still seen. The Duke coughed a few times in a cover-up manner, and replied with a straight face: "I was just about to tell you that the light in my room is broken. , I accidentally bumped into the door frame of the bathroom when I got up last night, you can find someone to fix it later."

His Excellency the Duke spent more than half of his time in the morning studying how to keep the lights off, so saving face is quite troublesome.

Although Steward Chardy is getting old, he is far from being confused. He is very sensible and did not continue to inquire. Why did both sides of his face turn blue when he bumped into the door frame? Because of his knowledge of current affairs, His Excellency the Duke does not have to Answer, both sides are blue because I bumped again when I got out of the bathroom. Such a maddening answer.

The butler took a peek at the Duke's face, touched his nose, and always felt that the two blue patches were a bit familiar.

The Duke relaxed his mind and began to enjoy his delicious breakfast. A man can't be depressed just because he was raped by his wife.

There was a faint sound of splashing in the water outside the terrace. Blanche put down the knife in his hand, raised his eyebrows, and asked, "Is he up yet?"

The Duke didn’t know how to address Li Miaowei. It seemed too intimate to call his wife and Zoe, and it felt strange to call his wife’s surname, so the last thing he said was just a personal pronoun. Anyway, Chardy could understand what he meant. .

The expression on Chardy's face froze for a moment, and he replied vaguely: "Yes, my lord."

Blanche thought for a moment, then said, "Her Majesty wants to see him today, so you should make preparations when the time comes. If he makes any special request, as long as it is not too much, I will agree to it."

"Don't worry, I know what to do, my lord." The butler replied.

His Excellency the Duke nodded, and didn't say anything more. Schardy could naturally handle such a simple matter properly. He continued to taste the rich milk flavor of stuffed tomatoes with mushrooms and bacon.

After the sound of the water, there was another sound of playfulness from the swimming pool. The one who laughed the most heartily, His Excellency immediately recognized the voice of talking nonsense. Since he was not yet an adult, the tone still had the unique clarity of a teenager. And pure, just like the color of the sky today, blue as washed, without any impurities, and there are a few pure cotton candy clouds floating in the distance, too beautiful to be true.

A momentary trance flashed in Blanche Hernand's eyes, and soon he became clear again. He smiled and slowly put the fork into his mouth.

"Master, tell me, if Prince Kaxiu is here tonight, will he notice us?"

"Well... don't worry, even if he doesn't talk to us, can't we take the initiative to talk to him?"

"Really? That's great. Tell me, can I ask him for an autograph? Shuya and the others will definitely envy me!"

"Haha, you are really..."

"..."

The Duke put down the knife and fork, wiped his mouth with a napkin, stood up and said, "Shardy, there are still some tax matters to be dealt with in the territory. I'm leaving first, and I will be back before five o'clock in the afternoon."

"I see, my lord." The butler bent down slightly and replied.

Didi has always shown great interest in the royal family gathering at night. As an attendant of a small noble family of freshwater mermaids, he has never had the opportunity to attend such a high-level dinner party before, so since he got the news, he has been pulling Li Miaowei chattered non-stop, and 80.00% of the topics revolved around the handsome and god-like Prince Kaxiu, just like a little girl obsessed with celebrities, which made Li Miaowei a little curious and wanted to see it too How awesome is this prince Kaxiu? He has always regarded Didi as his younger brother, with a bit of doting and helplessness, and promised Didi and the others to meet Prince Kaxiu if they have a chance, no matter what Well, I can be regarded as his cousin at any rate, so I still have the face of asking for an autograph.

Li Miaowei, who is about to be upgraded to an uncle, really finds it difficult to understand the strong obsession of brain-dead fans. In fact, he really feels that no matter whether Prince Kaxiu is awesome or not, Li Miaowei is pretty awesome. When he said the word cousin, he still looked calm.

Since the morning, butler Shardi has been shuttling through the Duke's mansion with an ice face on her face. Li Miaowei's face was almost frozen from smiling, and he didn't get much response. He could only hide in the swimming pool to avoid the limelight. Li Miaowei Miao Wei deeply felt that menopausal men are really too difficult to deal with, even if they are cute.

In the afternoon, Li Miaowei slipped into the kitchen and flirted with Edson for a while. The time passed and it was soon time to prepare to leave.

Although Shardi doesn't like the black fish of the Ives family, since it is an invitation from Her Majesty the Queen, whether it is due to the etiquette and decency of the Duke's mansion, or just from a personal point of view, the butler will not make things difficult for him. new lady.

The Duke’s aunt, the current Empress Sicilia, can be said to be one of the very few mermaids that Schardi recognizes. She was born noble, beautiful and dignified, and has an impeccable temperament. When she was young, the nobles competed wildly. Object, even now, it is difficult to find a few people or mermaids on the planet Motan who can compete with Her Majesty the Queen. After the old Duke passed away, Her Majesty the Queen personally brought Mrs. Blanche to her side to raise a few. Years ago, in the hearts of adults, Her Majesty the Queen is equivalent to his mother.

If she insisted on saying that she was dissatisfied with Her Majesty the Queen, Chardy couldn't help sighing, then it was because she was biased in her handling of the incident three years ago. Since then, Her Majesty the Duke and Her Majesty the Queen There has been some estrangement in the relationship between them, and it is not as close as before.

The old butler took a bunch of keys from the hidden drawer and slowly went down to the basement.

Royal family gatherings, don't think that they will be purely emotional exchanges between relatives. Most of the royal family members marry marine mermaids from proud aristocratic families, and the queen herself is a rare golden mermaid. Yu Ding, arrogant, even for the sake of His Majesty the Queen, the Duke has been teased by them many times behind his back, because his two wives in a row were of ordinary background, especially the incident three years ago , although I have tried my best to conceal it as much as possible, but there is no impenetrable wall in the world, and there are still very few relatives who know the inside story. Therefore, in recent years, unless it is necessary, the Duke will rarely show up on such occasions. Both His Majesty the Emperor and His Majesty the Empress sincerely invited each other generously.

At the moment, Chardy has already felt a little sympathetic to the black fish of the Ives family. He must have left happily tonight and returned in a state of disappointment. Those people may restrain themselves in front of the emperor and queen, but they are absolutely nothing in private Fuel-efficient lamps, the former duchess ran back crying after her first royal dinner.

If you don't mention your background and just look at your appearance, this Zoe Ives can't even compare to the fish scales of the former Duchess, it's a world of difference.

Alas, thinking of the ocean mermaid named Teresa twice in a row today, Chardy felt a little bored, he was really old, why did those people who had long since ceased to exist still think about her.

Since the hardware is not strong enough, we can only work on the software, so that the new wife will not have reason to complain afterwards that the Hernand family has treated him badly.

Chardy used three keys, plus a password and fingerprints, to open the door to the underground vault.The Hernand family is one of the oldest families on the planet Motan, and its history is not shorter than the current Antova royal family. The older the family, the more collections that others do not have. Although Hernand The German family has not been very prosperous. In this generation, Mr. Blanche has no decent relatives except for a cousin in Nankui Province. However, the Hernand family has strict family education. The choice of heirs is also very careful. Few of the grandparents have bad habits. Therefore, the family's wealth has not been exhausted in the long years, but has been accumulated through generations of painstaking efforts.

There have been rumors outside that the Duke is one of the richest nobles on the planet Mortan. This is not an unreasonable random guess, but he has inherited family training since he was a child, and he rarely shows off and shows off in front of outsiders. Living a relatively simple life, the only few times are also... Stop, stop, Xia Erdi didn't let himself think about it, he groped on the wall with his hands, turned on the light, and in an instant, the room was filled with brilliance, It was so bright that it was almost impossible to open the eyes.
