How to wear a goddess statue

Chapter 085 The Enemy Meets

The Solan royal family has been passed down for thousands of years, and of course there have been incompetent rulers among them. Some managed the country depending on their mood, some indulged in fun and ignored government affairs, and some were extravagant and brutal.

Solancia has also fallen into crisis several times due to this, but in the end it was able to survive and returned to prosperity under the efforts of an outstanding successor or co-governor.

Because of this, the Solan people will always proudly declare that Solancia is a country blessed by the gods, and the royal family is even more favored by the gods, and they are destined to be irresistible.

As one of the gods, Rhodes does not comment on this statement.

At this time, she was in the largest and most magnificent building in the entire palace city - the royal court, which was the place where King Sauran received visitors, and where Acht's ministers held routine meetings twice a week.

Rhodes was a little half a step behind Eleuil, standing on the right side, and behind them were Mortis and Lena—since they could not carry weapons when entering the royal court, their sabers were temporarily stored outside the door. This made the two people who never left their swords a little unaccustomed.

Behind the royal court, on top of the three stone steps, there is a throne made of ivory inlaid with gold and jade.

Horst was sitting there, and from the moment Aleuil stepped into the court, his eyes fell on the princess and never left.

Excitement, nostalgia, kindness...these are all appearances.

His upright appearance and other people's fixed impression of him are the best protective colors. From a distance, no one can see whether there is scrutiny and hostility hidden in his eyes.

Having met Romul in advance, the princess has been able to suppress the hatred very well without showing any traces.

She bowed and saluted, and there was nothing wrong with her demeanor.

Horst looked down at the audience, for a moment, there was no expression on his face.

But soon Horst stood up, quickly walked down the stone steps, and came to Aleuil.

"Welcome back, kid."

Horst's voice was deep, and seemed to be full of emotion.

Ailuil's smile didn't reach his eyes: "Long time no see, uncle."

"You have grown up and become more beautiful. If Brother Wang can see it, he must be very pleased."

Horst greeted with a smile, looking behind the princess seemingly inadvertently.

His scrutinizing eyes passed over the two bodyguards before turning to Luotus, his eyes seemed a little surprised.

The River Goddess looked back indifferently, without any unnecessary cover-up.

Facts have proved that she doesn't need to show the awe that a female official should have in front of the king, and the other party will find a reasonable explanation by herself.

Horst was a little thoughtful when he looked away, and he didn't know what he had imagined, but he was obviously more cautious when he looked at Rhodes.

Horst's attitude is not bad, but Eleuil is more than polite, not friendly enough, always lukewarm.

The atmosphere was tense at the moment, Romul looked at this side, looked at that side, and finally couldn't help saying: "Father, Ailuil returned to the royal city after a long journey, why not let her rest first."

Horst seemed to be reminded: "Your cousin is right. I was so excited that I didn't think about it."

"Uncle will arrange a place for you right now, Eleuil, do you want to live in the palace, or do you want to find another mansion?"

Aleuil raised the corner of his mouth: "I remember that my father has a residence in the city, why not just settle down there."

"This……"

"Why is uncle hesitating?" The princess raised her eyes, her tone unhurried, "Oh, I was negligent. Over the past few years, this mansion has probably been used for other purposes."

Horst said seriously: "I will never tamper with the things left by Brother Wang, but it has been vacant for a long time, so it is more troublesome to clean up."

Aleuil: "You don't have to bother uncle, I will take care of it."

Horst frowned, with an expression of ignorance for the younger generation.

"If there is nothing else, I will leave now."

Aleuil nodded, turned around and walked out, while counting silently in his heart.

one, two.

Horst's voice sounded: "Wait a minute."

Aleuil stopped in his tracks, turned around and said, "What else is there for uncle?"

"Are you...are you still hating Uncle?"

Aleuil stared at Horst without saying a word.

Horst's eyes were empty, and he seemed to be lost in memory.

"At that time, you were still very young. I shouted Brother Wang's name outside Serena's bedroom, but got no response. When I rushed in the door, when I saw the most beloved person in my life lying in a pool of blood, and you mother crying and laughing with scissors in hand, do you know how I feel?"

"I just want to kill her and let Serina use her life to pay for the crime of killing Brother Wang, but she committed suicide in fear of the crime. Can you imagine how sad and indignant I am!"

Aleuil said coldly: "Exile me to Kadela, is it a way to express my respect and love for my father?"

"I have to admit, I was too out of control." Horst rested his fist on his forehead, looking remorseful and tired, "Your face...your appearance inevitably reminds people of Serena, and when you think of a sinner I can't stand the blood flowing on you."

"So, I listened to the opinions of several elders and decided to send you to the original temple of Goddess Rhodes to wash away the dirty blood of that woman. This is also for your own good - she killed your father ah!"

Almost every sentence of these words hit the painful spot precisely, Luodas frowned, knowing that this was not only a performance, but also a temptation to the princess.

What is he testing.

Is it suspected that Aleuil learned the truth back then?

However, Goddess Wang didn't move at all, she only pursed her lips slightly when she heard the phrase "she killed your father", revealing a trace of struggle and sadness.

Horst said in a deep voice: "Until now, although I regret my decision to exile you, if I go back to that day, I will still make the same choice."

Princess: "Why?"

"That may be the protection for you. You should have discovered that someone wants to kill you. It is safe to stay away from the royal city."

"But even in Kadela, the assassination against me still exists-this is what you call protection."

Horst was shocked: "What, those people's hands stretched out to the border?"

He blamed himself again: "This is my negligence. I let Brother Wang's only daughter be in danger. It's normal if you don't believe me."

"But Aleuil, I just want you to know that the palace is your home no matter what time it is."

Hearing this, Aleuil's expression loosened slightly, and his eyes were still guarded.

As a bystander, the crown prince has been fully absorbed into the atmosphere created by these two people.

In other words, he was fooled and limped.

Rhodes, who knew the truth back then: "..."

Wasn't Horst himself the one who sent someone to assassinate Aleuil?

No wonder the previous king didn't notice before Horst made his move. With such acting skills, as long as he acted cautiously, no one would suspect him.

Looking at Aleuil again, she won't lose out on the same stage with Horst. She is just like a young princess who is struggling in the psychological shadow of her biological mother killing her father.

Ai Lu is still better.

Rhodes was amazed.

At this time, Horst looked at Lotus openly: "Who are you?"

"My teacher, Lorca."

Aleuil gave a brief introduction.

Rhodes saluted perfunctorily: "Your Majesty."

Horst probably didn't expect to receive such indifferent treatment, his expression froze, and he said, "You are from Cadella? Yes, thank you for taking care of Eleuil."

Luotus said flatly: "You're welcome, this is my business."

Horst: "..."

Facing Horst, who is used to performing and watching too many other people's performances, there is no need for extra camouflage. As I said before, he will find a reasonable explanation by himself.

Therefore, under the influence of Luotus's unpredictable psychological activities, Horst's thinking gradually converged with the previous guesses of Lena and others.

Taciturn, with unknown origins, never leaving the princess, never pretending to him...

This female officer with black hair and blue eyes might be the one Serina left for the princess!

It cannot be left behind by the previous king.Horst believed that he knew the power of the former king's subordinates clearly. If there was such a woman, he would not be unaware.

Then, it could only be Serena.

Fortunately, Aleuil doesn't seem to know the truth, and it seems that this mysterious female officer doesn't understand what happened that year, which made Horst secretly relieved.

But with such a person, the influence on Eleuil cannot be ignored...

Horst narrowed his eyes in thought.

Aleuil left again, this time, Horst did not stop him.

Before leaving, the princess asked to see the queen's bedroom, and he agreed.

The sleeping palaces of the previous queens are located next to the sleeping halls of the kings of Solan.

This is also a building with a history. Nine years of desertion will not make it dilapidated, but it still shows an indescribable depression and desolation, which is incompatible with many other palaces and courtyards.

The reason why the sleeping hall was abandoned is very simple.

In the eyes of others, this is the place where the previous kings killed the previous kings with their own hands and then committed suicide hastily. It is an ominous palace.

The gate was fastened with chains, and a lady officer opened the lock.

"Come in, Your Highness."

Aleuil didn't have any sense of familiarity with the face of this female official, not only the female official, but also other people coming and going within the palace walls, who did not belong to this palace nine years ago.

As a man, Mortis was not allowed to enter the harem, and was still waiting at the royal court. Lena also stopped in front of the queen's bedroom and was in charge of guarding.

Rotas walked into the gate of the palace with the princess, and the female officer followed closely behind, paying attention to their actions all the time.

"It's all gone."

Eleuil said softly.

Rhodes didn't speak, silence is the best response at this time.

She had visited here in the dream of the princess, and she had a little impression of the furnishings in front of her.The marble floor, the ebony wooden table, the couch made of wooden vines mixed with gold threads, the surfaces of these objects are covered with a thick layer of dust, and...

An ivory screen.

The young princess just hid behind the screen and witnessed everything.

Rhodes closed his eyes, the long-lost anger seemed to return to this body, but there was nowhere to put it.

Eleuil took her hand, his palm was warm.

With her back to the female officer, the princess mouthed: "I'm fine."

In the current situation, Rhodes was supposed to appease the princess, but it seemed that he was comforted instead.

Luo Dasi's mood was complicated, as if the turbulent undercurrent of the river was calming down slowly, and the anger that had just arisen was suppressed again.

Eleuil took Rodas to the other side of the palace, where there was an inconspicuous small door, and after opening it was another palace room.

"I used to live here."

As the princess said, with a light push, the dusty door was opened.

Strictly speaking, this room is regarded as a side hall of the bedroom, and it is the childhood residence of the royal children. They will not move out until they are baptized at the age of 13.

Rhodes walked into the room slowly, glanced casually, and fixed without warning.

The place where the line of sight falls is a bronze mirror, which is covered with dust on the table, and it looks nothing special at first glance.

Rotas picked up the bronze mirror, stared at it for a moment, then suddenly took out a linen silk handkerchief, and began to wipe the dust and remaining cobwebs off the mirror.

A touch of dazzling gold jumped into the eye.

What emerged from the dust was a small piece of bronze mirror inlaid with gold, on which a snake letter was carved in relief against the tip of the tail, weird and delicate, it seemed familiar.

The author has something to say:

For the cutie who has no impression of the mirror, you can look back at No. 28

Thank you for the thunder I don’t love Xiaobai’s vote, what’s the comparison!
