How to wear a goddess statue

Chapter 118 Stone Kiss

Lena walked along the corridor and walked quickly to the room deep in the main corridor of the City Lord's Mansion. She looked at the closed door and asked the maid guarding the door:

"His Royal Highness is still in the room?"

The waitress lowered her head and said, "Yes, Your Highness hasn't been out for most of the day, and he hasn't had lunch yet."

"Didn't you ask His Highness to come out for dinner?" Lena frowned.

The waitress was so nervous that her voice changed a bit: "I, I called and knocked on the door, but His Highness didn't answer, I dare not go in without authorization, I don't know what to do..."

Lena looked away with a headache and didn't say anything more.

Let alone a maidservant born and bred in Senna City, even she herself would feel apprehensive looking at the current Eleuil.

If it hadn't been for getting along for a long time, I knew that the princess would not really pose a threat. I am afraid that all the muscles in her whole body would subconsciously be on guard to resist the fear of facing cold and cruel monsters. This fear is not out of psychology, but rather It comes from instinct.

Not long ago, the princess was attacked in a noble mansion, and she was not injured. They brought the attacker and the snake corpse back to the city lord's mansion. Although the princess looked a little weak, she recovered to her usual good condition within two days. state.

Over the past few days, the situation in Senna City has gradually stabilized, and a few guys who had mixed in the crowd to instigate the slave rebellion were also found out.

This is also thanks to the slave leader Shalu. When she first took control of Senna City, she quickly ordered the city gates to be sealed to prevent greater turmoil. In the city, you can't escape.

After all the instigators were captured, the princess led the interrogation in person. Lena had something to report on the way, and witnessed a short period of the interrogation process of Eleuil with her own eyes. That bright face was as fierce as Shura. No wonder the guy being interrogated was frightened. It's not light, and it didn't take long before it was completely recruited.

It was a man who lived in the outskirts of the city who instigated them to rebel.

"It doesn't feel like a Northlander. He said that as long as we obeyed obediently, he would give us a lot of money."

"But if he doesn't act as ordered, or reveals his whereabouts to others, he will kill us, and there is nothing we can do—"

Threats make people confused, money is touching people's hearts, and the lord of Senna City is really not a good person, it is inevitable that these slaves will choose to obey their orders.

The queen sent someone to find a painter, and drew the man's appearance according to the descriptions of several slaves. After several revisions and adjustments, the appearance in front of her eyes did not have the appearance characteristics of the northern residents of Solancia, but more like the southern ones. Solan.

The mastermind was found here, the turmoil subsided over there, and everything was developing in a good direction, except for one thing.

The female officer who always walked beside the princess disappeared.

Since that day, Lady Lorca has disappeared without a trace, living or dead, as if she had evaporated from the world.

The princess did not say a word about this, but this is undoubtedly the main reason for the sudden change in Eleuil's state.

Lena had discussed with Mortis in private before, and sent her men to look for Lorca, but found nothing, not even any possible clues, and finally the princess came forward to stop it.

"Don't look for it." Aleuil said, with an indifferent tone, "If you can't find it, don't worry about it in the future."

That was the first time Lena saw such a tired expression from the princess.

Withdrawing her thoughts from the memory, Lena made full mental preparations and stepped forward to knock on the door.

"Your Highness, it's me."

no respond.

"Your Highness, come out and have something to eat when you're done with your work. Otherwise, when Lady Lorca comes back, how can we explain to her?"

After waiting for a while, the door opened this time.

Aleuil walked out of the room, the room behind her was covered with heavy curtains, so it looked very dark, and in front of her was covered with an arc of sunlight from the arched window in the corridor, the light and shadow overlapped and intertwined, showing a strange sense of confusion.

——It also covered the face of the princess with a lingering sternness, to put it more exaggeratedly, it was sinister.

But this feeling quickly dissipated, and Aleuil casually raised his hands to tie up his black hair, and said, "Let's go."

"what?"

Where are you going? Is there any urgent task?

Eleuil: "Go to dinner. You are right, I should really pay attention to my body now."

"..." Lena didn't know which sentence she said stood out from the encirclement and won the approval of the princess, but no matter what, it is a good thing that His Highness is willing to eat well.

Eleuil walked ahead without looking back.

After a while, he said softly as if talking to himself: "I have to live longer."

Hearing a young woman who is not yet 20 years old say this is more or less out of tune, to the extent that others can laugh dumbfounded after hearing it.

But listening to Lena, she seemed to be able to feel some kind of serious determination, almost obsessive.

What happened that day?

Even if Mortis didn't ask any more questions, Lena had no choice but to keep silent. For them, this might be an eternal mystery.

When the situation in Senna City was basically on the right track, and the princess and her party returned to the royal city the same way, Solancia had already entered autumn.

The sky was high and the clouds were far away, and groups of blue herons flew overhead. When Eleuil rode forward on the horse, he looked up at the soaring figures of the Ilu River elves, and then calmly looked away.

Acht will make waves for the return of the princess, and at this time, after dealing with a wave of greetings with different purposes, Eleuil and the others returned to the mansion.

The headmaid, Kurda, had already been waiting outside the door, while the other guards and attendants who stayed behind in the mansion were waiting in the courtyard, stretching their necks to look around, their concern palpable.

"Welcome back, Your Highness." The waitress bowed deeply, and when she raised her head, she suddenly found that a familiar companion was missing, and asked in confusion, "Why isn't Your Excellency Lorca here?"

In Kurda's perception, it is absolutely impossible for Lady Lorca to stay by the princess's side to cause anything to happen on the battlefield of quelling chaos, and the fact is indeed the case, the reason for Lotus's departure has nothing to do with the quelling of chaos.

In fact, it was a deliberate accident.

As soon as the question came out, Lena and Mortis were startled, and they all mouthed and gestured behind the princess, signaling to the head maid to stop asking, this is a minefield.

Maid: "...?"

However, to the surprise of the accompanying guards, Ailuil only paused for a moment, then raised the corners of his mouth, and said with a gentle smile: "Teacher's hometown has something to do, so I went back. The journey is far away, and I don't know when." will return."

"So that's the case. I hope His Excellency Lorca will come back as soon as possible." The head maid said half-sincerely and half-blindly, looking at the guards with her eyes.

Didn't it mean that the female officer was left to His Royal Highness first?Hometown, isn't her hometown Ahcht?

The guards were equally confused, and this was the first time the Queen gave an explanation on this matter.

Ailuil didn't want to say more, and got off his horse.

This war horse has been with her for several years, and it is very human. It seemed to be able to sense the emotions of its master, bent its neck, touched the arm of the princess, and let out a low cry, as if to comfort.

Eleuil patted the long and smooth mane of the war horse, his eyes were half-closed.

She wasn't wrong either.

The hometown of Rhodes, that is indeed a very, very far place.

The princess walked forward, holding the rein loosely with one hand, hiding her emotions well under a smile, but there was always something that couldn't be covered up, like burning fire, it would make people feel chilly when it was burning.

Among the remaining guards, Luka shivered involuntarily, and even his straw-yellow disheveled hair trembled.

"Why do you feel that Your Highness is a little different..."

Luka felt that something was wrong, but he didn't know where to start. It is worth mentioning that the young guard followed the words taught by the city lord's father, including "only those with a guilty conscience can speak like mosquitoes", so he spoke The voice is not as loud as a mosquito.

As if he didn't hear it, Eleuil walked past without turning his eyes.

Lena and Mortis walked behind, hating iron for steel, and each gave Luka an elbow.

After putting down the sundries he was carrying and tidying up a bit, Eleuil was about to go out.

The head waitress looked at the sky and persuaded: "Do you want to have dinner first, Your Highness? It's so hard to travel all the way, how can I do without eating?"

The princess shook her head: "I won't be there for too long, and there's still time to eat when I come back."

"Are you going to—?"

"The Temple of the River Goddess."

The temple complex is indeed not far from this block, and the head maid calculated the round-trip time and felt relieved.

When Eleuil came to the temple, the sun slanted to the west, dyeing the clouds into a magnificent light red, and extending brilliant cloud lines to the sky.

Hearing the news, Ruiya arrived immediately and said politely, "The High Priest is ill and cannot come out to greet her. Please forgive me, Your Highness."

Then he showed a small smile: "His Royal Highness has returned from the expedition, congratulations on the triumphant return—by the way, did the envoy not come this time?" As he spoke, he looked behind the princess, as if expecting that Rhodes would come. Great changes to living gods or something.

Aleuil interrupted her: "The envoy has gone back."

"Ah, I'm sorry..." Ruiya lowered her head, unable to hide her disappointment.

The princess glanced at her sideways, her expression elusive.

This is Rhea, the successor of the High Priest of the River Goddess, the future High Priest.When the current priest, Saige, dies of illness, Ruiya will logically become the person closest to Rhodes in the eyes of the world.

As for the illusory princess of the gods, how many people would take it seriously?

What's more, she can't be said to be favored by God now.

While his thoughts were churning, Eleuil had already walked into the sacrificial room, turned his back to Ruiya and said, "I want to pray to Rhodes alone, and keep people away from here."

After finishing speaking, he closed the door with his backhand.

The windows of the Wangcheng Temple are opened at the height of the building, and the opening is narrow and long. The light sunset light shines into the sacrificial room from here, casting a patchwork of mottled light and shadow. The marble statue is located at the end of the room, making it even darker, quieter and more sacred.

Aleuil approached the statue slowly, and the light and shadow surged with his steps.

Until she stopped in front of the statue and raised her head slightly, the bright color spots also fell on the face of the princess, as if casting a faint blood light on the golden eyes.

Blue chalcedony beads are also embedded in the eye sockets of the statue, and the eyes seem to be cast in a farther direction, and the figure in front of them cannot be seen.

After standing for a long time, Aleuil suddenly smiled abruptly.

The princess put her palms under the statue's slightly hanging hands, and gently pressed them together, as if her hands were folded. She raised her thumbs and slowly rubbed the stone wrists from left to right.

"Forgive my offense," although you may not see it.

"My eternal god and sweetheart." Although you may not admit it.

Eleuil bowed her head, her bright lips imprinted on the cold marble surface.

"Only you, I can never let go."

The author has something to say:

Yes, it is ten years after the copywriting www

And there is no ashes on the idol!The statue should be washed with clean water frequently to keep it clean, so there is no dust on the wrist, and even if there is a little bit, it was wiped clean by 2612 just touching it!

Rhodes at this time: zzZ
