Throne Steps

The lady who wants to see the black swan in the silver and vermilion color, to be honest, she can imagine her toes.

She was sitting in the garden, wrapped in a long dress that was thicker than blood and warmer than fire, every part fit perfectly, and every inch showed curves.The "Ruby" Ruby, who was originally as beautiful as a delicate flower, also became eclipsed after the appearance of this lady.As bright as a rose in full bloom, as mellow as a fine wine, this is the lady.

——Saenz's biological mother, from the "Fire Rose" of silver and vermilion, Tania Johe.

Cervantes and Ruby walked to her side, while Li Chen and Fudexi stopped in front of her to salute.

"Nice to meet you, good afternoon, honorable lady."

Tania raised her hand to him.

Li Chen kissed his hands naturally and gracefully.

"Sit down." Tenya looked up and down the black swan in front of her, her eyes flickering, "The designer of this uniform must be my favorite one, only he can make a rigid thing so sexy."

Li Chen had nothing to say, he could only keep his eyes down and smile.This is the new uniform that Black Swan just changed last year. It is indeed different from before, but Li Chen doesn't know the designer.But after listening to Tania's words, Li Chen only felt that Saenz's eye for choosing clothes was really in line with his mother's.

"Hey, I know that bastard Saenz, no matter how much he likes this style, he will never ask his guards to dress like this. The guards in his mansion are all dressed in the same rigid manner." Tai Niya seemed to know Li Chen's secret complaints, and smiled lightly, "It's a perfect arrangement for you."

Li Chen said "our honor" on his lips, but in his heart he guessed the real intention of Saenz to change this uniform for himself.

It has to be said that Tania gave Li Chen a correct direction of thinking.

"Hey, why are you so young and have such a gentle face?" Tania looked at Li Chen's appearance carefully again, and she was even more charming when she smiled, "If only it was as good as the rumors .”

Li Chen froze, and was almost startled by the smell of lady's powder.He had no doubts that if it was Akeye standing here, Tanya would never be stingy with her fan!

What kind of strange taste is this mother and son who pick lovers? Does this setting really fit the Sarnlich family?

Oh... Well, this lady is already so strong that she divorced Sarnlich's Patriarch, and it seems that she just doesn't want to be restrained in that kind of noble and dignified persona.

And her son would take Liu Ying, who looked similar to his own sister, into his banner, and even fell in love with a man, isn't it... not surprising, is it?

Saenz's strange preference can be regarded as finding the root.

Tania didn't know what her son thought about the little black bird, but it didn't stop her from teasing the little young man.She was happy, so she let Li Chen who had been smiling apologetically, and started the real afternoon tea.

However, she had dismissed all the attendants a long time ago, and in the end it was Li Chen, the guest in name, who actually served the tea with the lowest status.

Fudexi does not count, he has a full background board.And on the surface, he is one of the people in charge of Black Swan, and he is indeed higher than Li Chen.

Tanya admired the tea making process again, and then slowly brought the topic on track: "I heard... Saenz left a girl with you?"

Oh... Li Chen lowered his eyes, glanced at Lu Bi's skirt calmly, and felt that he had hit the topic of this trip.

"It's not counted as a deposit, and it's not with me." Li Chen smiled, "I just brought her to the temple, and the chief minister is the kind person who takes in the homeless."

"Homeless?" Tanya raised her eyebrows, "Who is that girl? Where did she come from?"

"Uh..." Li Chen was speechless for a while.If Tanya's demeanor was not so chic and domineering, he almost thought he was in the scene of a "Gong Dou".

"Don't be nervous, I don't mean anything malicious." Tanya smiled, "It's just a little... curious, as a mother's curiosity. Can you understand?"

... Maybe I would understand if Ruby and Cervantes weren't there.Li Chen thought to himself, and replied: "I really don't know where she came from. I only know that her name is Xila. His Highness met when he was traveling as a mercenary."

Listen, it's more like the story of "By the Daming Lake".

Li Chen thought for a while, and added: "When she went to look for His Highness, His Highness seemed to be exhausted, so he asked us to escort him to the temple."

Of course Tanya knew that these were probably not the truth, but Li Chen didn't seem to be lying, so she asked carefully, "What did she ask Saenz for?"

"I'm not sure about that." Li Chen hesitated for a moment, "She seems to have no relatives alive..."

This sounds absurd and bloody, but it is actually something Yang Xiaoxiao said in her daily life.Ainumari spies abound, this news is no longer news.However, Li Chen was very strict around Yang Xiaoxiao, and it might not be so easy for the spies to get close to her in order to inquire about her path.

Tanya probably also saw that the black swan was watertight, and said with a smile: "Well, even you are hiding it, it seems that my son wants to play with mystery." She provocatively said, "He asked You take care of that girl?"

It's a set of words... Li Chen replied: "The Black Swan is just a mercenary group, and the task will be over if the girl is taken to the temple. As for her life, although we are generally in the same place, but... …forgive us for not paying attention.”

Tanya asked again: "So, as long as she comes out of the temple, she must be escorted by the black swan?"

Li Chen shook his head and said, "I don't know, I haven't received any relevant tasks."

……

Throughout the afternoon tea time, Tanya's topic revolved around "the girl who was arranged by Saenz to go to the temple".

It stands to reason that Saenz is pure white, so it doesn't matter if he helps anyone casually.A mere helpless little girl is not worthy of the attention of Eternal Colors.The bad thing is that the girl somehow escaped from Saenz to the hands of Black Swan and brought it to the Ainuma Temple.You know, Black Swan and Wiggins are the most eye-catching representatives of civilians in Saenz's lineage, and Farah's son Brown and the street boy Dominic have attracted a lot of attention for this reason.And Yang Xiaoxiao, who switched hands twice among them, attracted attention.

Mrs. Tanya Joch even wondered if her son had taken a fancy to this girl of unknown origin.

She said that she divorced Vagcheno, the Patriarch of Pure White, and she no longer has any affairs related to Pure White.However, her son is a contender for succession, how could she be alone?She must help in the battle for Ruby's "fiancée position".

She and the black swan tried and tested for an afternoon, and finally came to a conclusion: the girl was thrown to the temple for more than half a year without any arrangement. It seems that at least I didn't like her, so dangerous.

At this time, she didn't know that Yang Xiaoxiao wrote letters to Saenz, and she didn't know that her son had other interests. She was only complacent because "the opportunity of Lubi is great".

Li Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief: If you want to tell you to go deeper and find out who sent this girl to Saenz, then it's the end of it!

Tania didn't get the answer she wanted, but at least she didn't get the answer she didn't want, she relaxed a little, and put on a molesting young expression: "Oh... I heard that the temple chief can see What ordinary people can’t see, he didn’t see what Saenz really likes?”

The corner of Li Chen's mouth twitched: "I am different from the general manager in managing affairs, so I don't have much chance to meet..."

"Then what do you like?" Tania giggled, "The polite little villain is really likable."

Li Chen was so overwhelmed by her description that it took him a long time to come back to his senses, and he tried to smile: "No, there's nothing I particularly like..."

After dinner, Lichen and Fudexi finally returned to the hotel and breathed a sigh of relief.

"It can be regarded as coming back." Li Chen wiped his face, untied his cloak a little tiredly, and glanced at Fudexi standing beside him, "I thought you would be left behind by her."

"It's a pity." Fudexi put down the tray in his hand, and put the hangover tea on the plate in front of him, "I don't look like she likes."

"It's much sharper than mine." Li Chen grabbed the cup and took a sip, but his mouth was burned a little, and he coughed twice, "Cough... If it was Akeye, I'm afraid he must run away tonight not drop."

"Can you drink yours first?" Fudexi leaned against the table and slowly drank a few sips of hangover tea. "You're in a good mood to gossip as soon as you come back."

"Otherwise, did 'Fire Rose' talk about anything else today?" Li Chen also slowed down the speed of drinking tea, "I just asked about his son's suspected lover."

To be honest, he originally made preparations to deal with the complicated current situation. After all, the momentum with which Cervantes delivered the invitation really made people feel prepared.As a result, Cervantes hit a few straight balls and gave up altogether after receiving no response. It was just a cutscene.And the "official opponent" Taniya basically only chatted about gossip, wasting the recent movements of Silver Vermilion that Li Chen spent time sorting out.

Oh, in fact, they don't have any special movements, and they are very stable in all aspects.The matter of Ruby can be regarded as one of the biggest issues they have to focus on recently.

After hearing Li Chen say "Saenz's lover", Fudexi thought of something, and gave him a meaningful look.

Li Chen also glanced back: "No matter what you want to say, shut up."

Fudexi raised his eyebrows and went to drink his tea.

Li Chen looked at his cup, squinted his eyes and said, "But we didn't expect 'Fire Rose' to appear here... I just don't know, does her son know about it?"

"You didn't tell him about the invitation card connected to the color of silver and vermilion, did you?" Fodhi replied, "So you're going to 'sell' yourself?"

"Can you speak better?" Li Chen squinted at him and drank the tea with his head raised.

If Tanya really inquired about Yang Xiaoxiao just because she was concerned about Saenz's marriage, it's okay to say, I'm afraid that she will really investigate...

Saenz thought of the tree-shaped craft ornament that Amoya had photographed, and the face of the Elf King, and finally recalled Saenz's words - "Mogadishu said...you can do it if you don't die" .

My fellow... Li Chen thought to himself: You should be more strict with your own mouth!
