[Daughter of the Sea] English Fairy Tale

Foreign ministers cannot stay in the palace for long.Hearing what Isis said, César smiled and bowed his head to kiss the girl's cheek, saying goodbye to her.Originally, I went there out of curiosity, but Isis was left speechless.

Returning to the room listlessly, Isis found that Emma had also left after tidying up everything for her.Now there was no one to talk to, and the girl lay on the bed bored, staring at the ceiling in a daze.

"Da da——" Just as Isis was about to fall asleep, there was a sudden knock on the door.

Before she could speak, someone outside had already opened the door and entered.It was her father, Isis hurriedly got up from the bed, "Father, why are you here?"

"I'm surprised, I thought my daughter would come to see me first." Ernst didn't mean to blame him at all, he said half-jokingly, "If you have a sweetheart, you don't need a father."

Isis ran out of the bed barefoot, hugged her father's neck, and said coquettishly, "How could it be? In my heart, my father will always come second."

Hugging Isis to prevent her from falling, Ernst stared at his daughter. Isis has completely inherited Helen's advantages, except for the pair of eyes that resemble her own.the king asked with interest. "Then who can rank first in your heart? My little princess."

"Of course... Mother." Isis paused and replied solemnly.

Before she finished speaking, Queen Helen had already walked out from behind the door.Looking at the father and daughter in front of her, she smiled helplessly: "Isis is a ghost, you must have seen the queen mother a long time ago."

Hearing this, the girl felt a little proud.She saw a woman's skirt flashing past the door, coupled with her father's hint of winking at her, Isis immediately guessed that her mother must be hiding outside.

"I'm telling the truth." The girl nodded vigorously, and said, "No one can shake my mother's position in my heart." As she spoke, she gave up her father's embrace without hesitation, and hugged Queen Helen.

"Alright, Isis." Helen pinched the tip of the girl's nose and said with a smile, "We came here to ask you if you would like to accompany us to visit your uncle tomorrow."

Duke Victor is the only younger brother of King Ernst. The Duke does not like politics but loves art collection.Isis liked this uncle very much. There was a large library in Duke Victor's manor, where Isis could read many books, including ancient oriental books.

Hearing the news, she excitedly turned to her father standing by the bed: "That's great, I haven't seen my uncle for a long time."

After sending off her parents, the girl is ready to start planning tomorrow's itinerary.She sat down at her white-painted desk and began to write quickly.The ink was still wet, and while waiting, the girl read it twice contentedly, then folded the paper and pressed it under the dressing box.

Early the next morning, Cecilia was accompanied by Emma to visit the garden of the palace.After Isis finished breakfast with her, she followed Queen Helen to meet her father, and then the three of them drove to Victor's manor together.

Duke Victor, who knew in advance that Isis was coming, waited at the gate of the manor early in the morning.Although the Duke is only five years younger than Ernst, he has never been married. For this reason, the king and queen were anxious for him for a while, but in the end it was nothing.

There is no mistress, and the manor housekeeper Selina is now accompanying Duke Victor. She takes care of the Duke's daily life in an orderly manner.

"Good morning, Uncle." As soon as the carriage came to a stop, Isis jumped out impatiently, "Mrs. Sarina, it's good morning too."

"It's been a long time." Seeing how energetic his niece was, Duke Victor joked with a smile, "Our Isis is getting more and more beautiful. Did you enjoy your trip to Denmark?"

"Well, I still prefer your manor, Uncle." Isis stepped forward and took Victor's arm, showing a big smile, "Are there any new books in the library, Uncle?"

Seeing the girl's crooked eyebrows, Duke Victor lightly flicked Isis's forehead, and then said gently: "I know your little girl... If Isis likes it, uncle doesn't mind giving the whole manor to her." you."

Ernst on the side couldn't laugh or cry when he heard his brother's words.He held his wife Helen's hand, stepped forward and said dissatisfiedly: "Victor, you will spoil Isis like this."

"Okay, my lord duke. You still let the guests in, it's shameful to stand at the door." Selina reminded helplessly.

The cobblestone path is lined with flowers, walking along the path, bypassing the cascading fountain and finally reaching the inside of the manor.The intricately carved windows and the terraces of the rooms are looming under the cover of verdant ivy.

"Isis, the shelves on the far left of the library are full of new books." Seeing the girl bouncing up the stairs, Victor urged from below, "By the way, help uncle sort out those ancient books with Chinese characters, you better at it.”

Isis was already upstairs.Seeing that her husband was about to start talking about business with Victor, Helen followed Selina to the kitchen.I remember that every time Isis mentioned Mrs. Sarina's craftsmanship, she was always full of praise, so taking this opportunity, Helen also wanted to learn some new dishes from Sarina, so that she could make them for her daughter to try later.

Victor's study room is not big, but what is conspicuous is the bookshelves that cover the entire wall. The books on the bookshelves are dazzling and varied.Ernst looked around his younger brother's study and sighed, "No wonder Isis likes your place here."

"Okay, brother. You only have official documents in your study, and if I don't want to go there." Duke Victor smiled and said, "Besides, you didn't just want to see me today."

"You're right." Ernst didn't make any detours anymore, he took out the letter that César had given him from his jacket pocket, and handed it to Duke Victor, "Look at this."

The Duke accepted the letter with some doubts, and as he read the letter further, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter.In the end, Victor slapped the letter on the table and said angrily, "Who would dare to assassinate Isis?"

"The last sign of the letter is your seal." Ernst pointed to the letter spread out on the table, "However, I know it's a fake."

Hearing Ernst say this, Victor noticed.Taking a closer look, the final imprint of the letter is exactly the same as the personal seal that I carry with me.

This time, Duke Victor was not angry.He looked at his calm and relaxed brother, and said thoughtfully, "It seems that Brother Wang already knows who this person is."

"Anyone who dares to assassinate the crown prince, hoping to cause discord between our brothers." Ernst patted Victor on the shoulder and said, "Who else but Augsig."

Compared to Duke Victor's study, the library in the manor occupies an entire floor.Isis stayed alone in the library, she threw the soft cushion on the floor, and the girl sat on it unceremoniously.

"Without TV and computer, life is really boring." Isis sighed and looked at the bookshelf in front of her, and suddenly a sentence emerged in her mind: Constantly recognizing one's ignorance is a manifestation of human wisdom.

Sitting and watching, lying down and lying down...under the bookshelf, beside the table, on the window sill...Isis changed her position, watching it happily.

"Isis." After an unknown amount of time, Queen Helen walked in suddenly, "My God, you made this place—"

She picked up the books at her feet, and the huge room was messed up. Some of the books on the shelves were on the desk, and more were spread out on the floor.Isis sat on the ground, and now she looked at her mother with an embarrassed expression.

"It's okay, Helen." Mrs. Sarina, who came up afterward, was used to seeing such a scene.She explained with a smile, "Every time Duke Victor reads the book, the situation is similar to the current situation. Moreover, Isis will clean up every time."

"I'll clean it up right away." The girl quickly got up from the ground.Glancing at the chaotic room, Isis bent down and started tidying up the room she had messed up deftly. The books had to be put back on the shelf, and the throwing cushions had to be put back on the seat.

Looking helplessly at her daughter, Helen said, "Isis, come down quickly after packing up."

After tidying up the room obediently, Isis walked down the stairs to the hall on the first floor.At a glance, she realized that everyone was gathered here.Seeing her mother looking at her, Isis immediately said, "The library has been packed."

"It's okay, Helen." Victor smiled and helped his niece, "Didn't you just say that you were going to let Isis participate in the palace ball this month? Now the protagonist is here."

"What dance?" Isis was confused, "Is it related to me?"

"Your mother is planning to hold a court ball at Buckingham Palace this month." Seeing his daughter's puzzled expression, Ernst explained, "Of course you are the protagonist of this ball."

This is undoubtedly shocking news. In previous court balls, Isis hid whenever she could.Since entering the social circle, Isis has attended balls more than one hand can count.

The problem of incoordination of hands and feet in the previous life seems to have continued in this body. The girl who didn't have much talent for dancing still didn't make much progress after being ordered by the queen to study hard.

"Why do you want me to participate." The girl protested softly, "Mother, it's not like you don't know my dancing level."

"This has nothing to do with the level of dancing." Queen Helen looked at her daughter and said amusedly, "I think you should make more friends. At that time, I will invite all the young talents in London."

Sure enough, young talents are the key point, Isis is having a headache.
