How to wear a goddess statue

At the end of December, the wind howled.

Snow flakes as big as goose feathers rolled all over the sky, and they were swirling one after another, forming a thick layer of pure white bedding on the avenue entering the city.

The queen's black boots stepped on the snow, even though she walked lightly, there was still a slight rustling sound, which was mixed with the movement of the guards and horses behind her, and it was not obvious.

The shops that can be opened on the main street are relatively decent and glamorous, but in such a heavy snow day, few are willing to open their stores, let alone not many people patronize.

Near the end of the year, planting, grazing and construction activities have basically stopped. In this weather, most of the city residents are huddled in their warm homes with burning fires. Who will come out to buy things?

For the same reason, there are almost no pedestrians on the street.

The caravan from afar walked across the quiet street towards the City Lord's Mansion.

Rotas and the princess got out of the carriage as soon as they entered the city gate. At this time, they were walking unhurriedly at the front of the queue, leaving footprints in the blank snow that no one had passed.

Rhodes was wearing a white fur cloak, looking out from the edge of the hood, looking at Eleuil.

The princess was also wearing a hood, but it didn't block her forehead. Her face was slightly sideways, and her eyes passed by the snow-covered street shops, with a look of nostalgia in her eyes.

Rhodes felt that he should say something, and said softly: "It seems that you have been here before."

Aleuil nodded: "When I was seven years old, I followed my father to visit here, and it was also winter."

This is the main city closest to Acht. After leaving the back city gate and heading east, you will enter the territory directly under the king's city, which is wider than any other main city. It is the kingdom of Solancia. center of.

Aleuil remembered that the city lord here was a generous and kind old man who used to be the teacher of his father.

They watched the snow scene in the yard and talked about the important affairs of the city. The queen mother took her to sit in the living room and chatted with the elderly wife of the city lord.

But the princess didn't sit for long, she saluted and explained to her mother at a regular distance, and then ran all the way to the courtyard in calfskin boots, listening carefully to the conversation of the two elders.

The father was helpless: "It's so cold outside, what are you doing when you run out, can you understand?"

The princess said: "Father, continue to talk, ask me after you finish speaking, and you will know if I understand."

The old city lord smiled kindly and said: "Your Highness is so smart, even if you don't understand, you can repeat it, right?"

The princess's golden eyes widened, cat-like eye tails raised: "I won't repeat it, I can understand."

These words made both of them laugh. The princess didn't know why, so she heard the old city lord shaking his head and said: "Your Highness, many things cannot be understood after listening. No matter how smart you are, you must have experience first, otherwise it is empty talk." .”

"Then I will go through it first, and then come back and tell my father."

The princess is very confident.

The old city lord smiled and said nothing, and asked the former king: "Your Majesty, why don't you let your little Highness follow me to learn, at my age, there is always time to teach another student."

"Wouldn't it be inconvenient?"

"How could it be? It is not in history that there are no princesses who assist the king. Being able to teach His Highness before returning to the embrace of God Emmut may be the last thing I can do for Solancia."

The former king: "I'm afraid not. Ai Liu said a few days ago that she would go to the battlefield. I think she wants to join the army as a commander."

He spread his hands, as if disapproving.

The princess said, "Why can't I learn both? I'm learning both bow and arrow and astronomy and mathematics. It's not difficult."

The former king was angry and funny: "How can this be the same..."

The old city lord did not regard this as a child's joke. He squatted down, looked at the young princess, and said solemnly: "After two years, if you still think it is not difficult to learn together, let His Majesty send you here."

"——At that time, I will definitely teach you everything I have learned in my life."

The same wind and snow, but I can no longer see the familiar relatives back then.

As time passed by, the voices and smiles of the father, queen mother and empress have frozen, and the face of the old city lord has long been blurred. Only these conversations remain in the memory.

Back then, the princess did not wait for the opportunity to study with the old city lord. Before the two-year period came, she was sent to the Kadela Temple by the new king's will.

Eleuil's voice about the past was flat and extremely low, only Rhodes could hear it.

There are clear snowflakes hanging on her drooping eyelashes, with clear six corners, but it turns into tiny water droplets in just one breath, and will not fall on the edge of the long eyelashes.

Suddenly, Rhodes remembered the information he had collected before coming to this city.

The old man who was the former city lord died of illness eight years ago. Since the old city lord had no children during his lifetime, the ownership of the main city was handed over to a royal collateral by Horst.

It is said that he died of illness, but people who have experienced the changes in the past have their own guesses about the truth.

I know it well, but keep it secret.

Rhodes stretched out his hand from under the sleeve of his robe, and accurately grasped the princess's exposed wrist.

She put her palm on Aleuil's tightly clenched knuckles, and after a while, that hand stretched out, allowing the gods to hold it obediently.

The same wide sleeves were staggered and hung down, covering the clasped hands. Except for the two, even the nearest local officials did not notice it.

This official is here to lead the way.

It is said to lead the way, but it is more to show off. Think about it, in this kind of windy and snowy weather, the caravan that the princess belongs to came to the outside of the city lord's mansion, but was told by the guards that the city lord had something important to do. I can't meet you, how good will your expression be when you are turned away?

This is what the mayor wants to see.

The officials didn't take it seriously, but after all, they were working under the lord of the city, and no matter how contemptuous they were, they had to follow orders.

He squinted his eyes and looked forward, and said bravely, "Your Highness, the City Lord's Mansion is in front of you."

Aleuil raised his eyelids slightly: "It's on the left."

"On the left is the area where nobles live."

After the official finished speaking habitually, Aleuil turned without hesitation, leading the team to the left.

"Aren't you coming to visit the city lord? According to the usual practice——"

Princess Wang didn't turn her head back: "According to the usual practice, it is best for caravans to find a place to stay immediately when they enter the city, so as not to let the carriages carrying goods go outside to disturb the order in the city."

The official looked around blankly, and as far as he could see, there was no shadow of a passerby.

Where did people disturb the caravan in this weather?

The owner of the caravan riding a tall horse walked in the middle of the team and greeted the officials with a smile:

"The weather is bad, and the caravan is not easy to come and disturb. We accept the kindness of the city lord for sending you to lead the way, and we will express our gratitude when we have a chance."

Official: "..."

He turned his head and glanced at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion.

Here comes the question, what should we do now?

Eleuil took up the status of an ordinary guard again, avoiding the custom of visiting the city lord.

Seeing the tightly-fitted mansion gate from a distance, one can tell that the other party has malicious intentions. For this kind of guy, there is no need to maintain superficial politeness.

As for where to stay——

Entering the urban area where nobles and rich merchants live, the name of the princess is automatically equipped again. Eleuil leads the guards and the caravan, passing the high-walled houses on both sides, all the way to the end of the road.

Under the raised hillside, a palace with gardens stands out.

As the main city closest to Acht, this city can be said to be the top priority of the inspections of the kings of all dynasties. Of course, the royal palace was also built.

The princess wanted to live in her own palace, no matter how the city lord tried to play tricks, it was impossible to stop her.

The area of ​​the palace is quite large, more than enough for a caravan to settle down.

Even if the royal family has not been here for a long time, the maids and slaves who stay here will take care of it from time to time. For everyone, they can move in directly.

The evergreen trees planted in the garden are trimmed neatly, shaking off the snow covered above, the branches and leaves under them are still green and dripping.

Aleuil had already passed the stage of feeling the scene before, he only looked up at the tallest old tree in the courtyard, and walked into the palace.

The head waitress who was staying here got the news and hurried to the hall to greet her.

Seeing the princess taking off her hood, her black hair hanging loose, and her bright golden eyes sizing her up calmly, the head maid took a deep breath, bowed her head and saluted, with an indistinct tremor in her voice.

"Your Highness, please follow me."

The attendants in the palace took action and cleaned out rooms that could be used by the master and guests in a very short time. Several attendants stood in the corridor, looking left and right, making it difficult for the princess to decide which room to clean.

"What's there to hesitate about?" The head waitress reprimanded, "Clean up the main hall."

The maid carrying the bucket hesitated and said, "But the main hall can only be..."

"This is Your Royal Highness. Your Highness lived in the main hall when she came last time. It should be the same this time. Do you understand?"

The waitress was shocked and nodded immediately.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone in the caravan, the palace gradually came to life, like a city that had been abandoned for a long time, revived in front of its eyes.

When everything was settled, the head maid stood behind the princess and said respectfully, "What else do you want?"

"Why clean up the main hall?"

"Only you are eligible to live here." The head waitress said without hesitation, "The city lord said so before he left, and we think so too."

It is impossible for the new city lord to say such things, only the old city lord.

Aleuil was silent for a moment, nodded, and started to walk into the hall, but the head maid said cautiously: "Your Highness, may I know that the person next to you is—?"

Hearing the sound, Rhodes looked back, his eyes softened.

Before Eleuil could answer, she had already said flatly: "I am His Highness's teacher."

teacher?

The head maid's lips moved, her expression was blank, and she suddenly recalled what the old city lord had said to her eight years ago when he secretly came to the palace the day before he "died of illness".

"Kurda, His Highness will come back one day. I am destined not to wait until then, but please stay here. No matter what happens, please stay here."

"...I thought I could hear that child call me teacher, what a pity."

The head waitress lowered her head deeply, and from the corner of her eyes, she saw the figures of the two people turning around and walking into the hall.

The pitch-black boots and the silver shoes intertwined with white straps were in unison, making a clear sound on the white stone floor as they gradually drifted away.

"fair enough."

She said, in a low voice.

The author has something to say:

Rhodes: I have taken over your student, thank you.

The old city lord who has long been reincarnated from the hand of death: Wait? ? ?

------

Thanks to the little cutie who throws thunder, and compares my heart!
