The Legend of Fatality

That night, Catherine, accompanied by Peverley, attended a banquet held for her. → Eight → Eight → Read → Book, ↓ .o ≥ She did not expect that she would get tired of this kind of thing so quickly. When she entered the hall, Prince Lothal was standing opposite the room, talking to the two elder nobles. The prince wore very delicate light blue leather pants and a silk jacket, which looked like it was made of ribbon and decorated with small silver beads.

A piece of fabric on the right side of his jacket was cut off, revealing the skin on the right side of Lotaire, which was dyed blue. Catherine thought her short-sleeved, low-cut new skirt was bold, but compared to Lotel's dress, she felt very traditional. But the prince's movements seemed a bit stiff, and there was no expression on his face.

Soon the prince noticed that she was staring at him and turned and bowed to her. Catherine froze, then bowed her knees and flushed. She found herself ridiculous, as if she had been trying to attract his attention and attract him in some way, but she definitely did not.

Peverly muttered to himself: "I hope they won't let us wait too long so that we can eat something and then leave here." He looked around and said, "Every woman wears better than the last one Women are funny, but I have to say that your future husband pays great attention to his appearance. It seems like this can deceive anyone. "

"Who?" Catherine asked.

"His scars covered the entire left side. We have a complete description of the scars on his body-this is what my father requested."

That's why he wore a long-sleeved turtleneck to cover his skin, Catherine thought.

"I heard this was an accident when he was a kid," Catherine said. "He ran across the kitchen and a large pot of hot oil splashed on him."

"Unless you assume that the staff in the kitchen is cooking oil just to do this," Peverly sarcastically. "The wounds on his body are said to have been left during the duel, although I think it was because he was a prince, and the opponents did not dare to actually kill him."

"What about his illness?" Catherine asked again.

"Oh, he's a typical weak man. Maybe he thought of the hot weather, he might be full of fear." Peverley giggled. "Maybe it made him think too easily that his skin was on fire. I think that's why he didn't come to see us. Too soft, maybe he was used to pleasing others with silk and blue **** body paint as he pleased. ③ ≠ eight ③ ≠ eight ③ ≠ read ③ ≠ book, ↗.o ● "

Before Catherine had more time to ask, they were led to the dinner table for the banquet. But Catherine was even more puzzled. What Sir Roland said was not the same as what Peverly said. What kind of person is Lotaire?

Catherine sat on the left of King Charles. Prince Lothal sat on the right side of the king, and Peverly sat on the other side. When Lotel spoke with her brother, Catherine glanced at him. His voice was too low, and she could not hear what he was talking about. From this position, she saw his bruised side. She glanced at his ear. His ear was small, as if a part was lost in the duel. His eyes were drooping and he looked tired, but the prince's straight posture showed no signs of tiredness.

"He was a little uncomfortable," Sir Roland said when she arrived at Somerset. Now Prince Lotter does not look as uncomfortable as he said. Perhaps Peverley's guess was closer to the truth, and Lotel was just too lazy to ride to see her. Catherine felt angry, and although she would become Lotaire's future wife, she was considered insignificant.

However, she soon forgot these feelings and relaxed a little. King Charles is a good host. He can tell court stories and the history of Burtania, but never dominates the conversation as her father did. Catherine responded with anecdotes in her book about Queen Valeria and a comparison of the fashions of Burtania and Bill Barry.

"Catherine, what do you want from this marriage that your father and I decided?"

Catherine was shocked that the king would ask her for advice at such a late hour and answer formally.

"My concern is to make sure that I can represent Bill Barley well."

"You are doing this, princess. Everyone is fascinated by you."

Catherine glanced at Prince Lotel with a smile. He didn't seem to be looking at her all night. Now, he is describing in detail to Peverly, and using very gorgeous gestures. Catherine tried to hear the conversation, and found that he was describing the process of sewing silk for the jacket. Peverley's face seemed to be mixed with disgust and boredom, and Catherine smiled, but then she wondered whether her own expression would be the same when she married the prince.

The party continued as always, with speeches and dancing. The prince did not dance, and when one noble after another dedicated their dance to her, Catherine had to hold back yawn. After that, Catherine was introduced to more nobles and ladies, and through the same conversation, she smiled and talked about how cute her trip was, Bill Bally and Burtania.

In the end the king said goodbye, which meant that she could also go. Nia and Sara took her back to her room, so tired she could hardly stand up. Fortunately, Sir Roland came to accompany her again and escorted her back to the room.

"Sir Roland," Catherine hesitated, trying to find an appropriate word to describe Pefley's evaluation of the prince. "My brother said that Prince Lothal was very weak, which seemed a little different from what you said to me before."

"Weak?" Sir Roland froze for a moment, then smiled. "Maybe the prince is a little cold and unsmiling, but weak, I do n’t think so. I said before that he is the best swordsman in Burtania. There is no doubt that anyone who doubts and has the courage to challenge him is dead . "

"But his dress ..." Catherine remembered the dress of the prince at the dinner again, and began to doubt Sir Roland's words. "And his conversation with Peverly ..."

"Your Highness," Sir Roland seemed aware of Catherine's distrust and became serious. "Trust me, you can ask Lancaster, Aquitaine and even the entire knights of Burtania about Rotter's swordsmanship and knight spirit."

He paused and continued. "Maybe some gossip, but when I saw him before, he was wearing full armor and stood beside the king more like an ordinary knight than a prince. Maybe he heard the news along the way and decided to do it for you Make some changes, do n’t I think this is a good thing? "

Catherine wasn't quite sure about this. The difference between what Peverly and Sir Roland said was too great. She couldn't believe that a serious and superb swordsman knight would talk to Peverly about sewing silk. But she wisely stopped asking this question.

"Then there is one more thing," Catherine asked. "Why do the Duke of Burtania seem to ..."

"On an equal footing with the king?" Sir Roland added.

"Yes."

"This is because the lady's choice is important to the heir to the throne of Burtania, although the consent of the Dukes is now equally important." Sir Roland explained. "Of course it has something to do with the fact that King Charles actually controls only Lancaster collar."

"I read in the history book that I didn't seem to have introduced Lancaster's collar before." Catherine continued to ask.

"That's because Lancaster's collar was originally an Earl's collar, and even when King Charles inherited the title, it was also the Earl's title." Lord Roland replied.

"what happened?"

"I'm not sure, the Burtanians seem to be taboo about this history." Sir Roland thought about it. "All I know is that King Charles defeated an Aquitaine monster many years ago. But he He did not accept the title of Duke of Aquitaine. A few years later, the Earl of Lancaster, who also had the blood of the founder of Burtania, gave the title to King Charles because of his heirs. Then King Charles opened the territory and will belong to Azerbaijan. The prince of Lancaster, the vassal of the Duke of Kitan, has become the present prince. "

"How did you do it?" Catherine thought it was amazing.

"Unknown, I guess it is the other dukes who think that if the vassals of the princes of Aquitaine are as large as the territory of a prince, this is a threat to other princes. The easiest way is to allow this vassal to The others are on equal footing. As far as their relationship is concerned, I only know that the Duke of Aquitaine, the Earl of Toulouse, and the Earl of Lancaster all seem to have the blood of the founder of Burtania. "

"Is it all a royal family?" Catherine began to understand now.

"It can be said ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ But the founder of Burtania did not pass on the kingdom to his son, but a Holy Grail knight blessed by the lady became king. It is said to be the first Grandson of Duke Alonson. "

Catherine also wanted to continue to ask some complicated historical questions about the country. But before she noticed that there was a servant waiting in front of the living room door, Sir Roland also said goodbye. The servant had a silver plate in his hand and a small envelope on it. There is a note inside.

You may find the garden more interesting than dancing.

At nine o'clock tomorrow morning, on the balcony?

"Who sent this?"

"Prince Lothal, Your Highness. He asked for an answer."

Catherine hesitated. She should not see him alone before getting married, and she definitely does not want to listen to a lecture on silk sewing. On the other hand, Peverley and Noyes would definitely not agree. But now it is her decision.

"Tell Prince Lotel ... yes." 11
