Villainous princesses don't die in royal battles

As soon as the female voice fell, Elena suddenly thought of the fact that she forced Testia to be her maid, secretly thinking that the other party was not at the scene at the moment, otherwise it would be hard not to mutter in her heart.

"Take a few more books home at a time, as long as they are in the bookcase, I can borrow them." An Nuo said.

Delphis nodded when she heard the words, and responded in a low voice: "...Yeah."

It was already a surprise to be able to reach a deal with An Nuo, not to mention that the terms offered by the early party were far more generous than that black-hearted maid. Re-examine the noble and elegant blonde big sister in front of you.

She did help herself, there's no denying that.

Seeing that Delphis seemed to have let go of her psychological pressure, and her movements were no longer as careful as when she first came here, An Nuo softened her brows, gently held her arm with one hand, and looked at the girl with a smile.

The number of books that can be borrowed has increased, and Delphis has naturally picked up a lot faster. She doesn't need to think about which book she wants to read the most. If she thinks it is interesting or can help her, she will take it down and put it on the counter, and put it on the shelf after a while. I bought five or six books.

An Nuo noticed that the books Delphis took were basically popular science books, involving history, geography, painting and many other aspects. Among them, only one was the favorite story book for children of her age.

"Does Miss Delvis want to learn to draw?"

Seeing a copy of "A Brief History of Callist Empire Art" and another "Mastering Oil Painting" stacked together, Annuo asked Delphis curiously.

She reads these just to understand the overall world view of the novel world. If she is not an insider, she should not be interested in such professional books that are particularly boring to look at, especially when they are placed in the same column with several other novels. .

Delphis was silent for a while, and nodded slightly for a moment.

"Well, I want to learn."

Although she feels pretty good about her current paintings, in the final analysis, they are all the results of her own exploration, without systematic study, and without any reference comparison with other people. Even if she knows where the shortcomings are, she doesn't know how to improve .

Delphis has always needed a book related to painting, and she didn't take it just now because she subconsciously thought that An Nuo was unwilling to sell such a special item.

Art books are different from novels. The latter is often circulated among the people, but the former is monopolized by the rich or nobles just like magic, and it is difficult for ordinary people to get access to it. Elvis found the energy of the painting book.

After listening to the blonde loli's answer, An Nuo nodded thoughtfully, with a calm voice.

"Could you show me your paintings by chance?"

Perhaps this is a good breakthrough that can help her establish a deeper relationship with Delphis.

As soon as the words came out, the air paused for a few seconds. Delphis raised her eyes and looked at An Nuo beside her. In the eyes of the other party, she saw a slender figure in a white dress.

"..."

"If you really want to see it, you can."

Delphis hugged the book, her cherry pink lips opened and closed.

An Nuo looked at Delphis with a serious expression, blinked and said softly.

"Then I'll wait and see."

A topic that can be expanded is very important for the next contact. An Nuo's actual gains this night are far more than the sum of the previous nights.

After picking up the books she wanted, Delphis said softly, "I will keep them well."

There is a lock in the room. In order to prevent Rhine from accidentally scratching the books, she will lock all the borrowed things in the closet and take them out when she reads them.

After hearing this, An Nuo's expression remained unchanged: "That's good."

"By the way, this piece of jade will stay with you first, and it will be handed over to me after a year."

After speaking, An Nuo returned the suet white jade to Delphi.

"After all, there is no commercial contract here. I took the jade in advance and it does not conform to the transaction process."

After receiving the jade that still had a woman's body temperature, Delphis froze for a moment, then raised her face and took a deep look at An Nuo, and handed the jade to An Nuo after a few seconds.

"It's yours now..."

This approach ensures the fairness of the transaction to the greatest extent, or in other words, it is more inclined to protect the interests of Delphis.

Annuo can freely enter and leave the castle, but Delphis cannot. The latter is the initiator of the transaction and is also a relatively weak party. By doing this, Annuo actually expressed [-]% trust in her and showed enough sincerity.

"I borrowed the book but didn't mortgage anything. This jade is just right."

Annuo can trust her so much, maybe part of the reason is that she knows that she can't escape this gloomy castle, so there is no need to worry too much, but no matter whether there is a reason for Annuo to do so, Delphis will use the same trust pay her back.

Taking a step back, the proud self-esteem of the Callist nobles would not allow them to backtrack.

To deceive a 14-year-old girl is an insult to the royal family.

Seeing the persistence in Delphis' eyes, An Nuo fluttered his eyelashes a few times, and sighed softly.

"what ever."

It was necessary to do a full set of acting, since she had already shown a strong interest in this piece of jade, it would be counterproductive to be more humble.

Seeing An Nuo taking the jade, Delphis said softly: "Then... good night."

This was the first time that Delphis took the initiative to say good night to An Nuo.

"Good night." An Nuo replied.

Volume 115: Chapter 20.00 Chapter [-] Raiders progress [-]%

Having achieved a preliminary breakthrough in the relationship with Delphis, Eileen was not in a hurry to have further exchanges. The former has not completely let go of her guard against her, but his attitude is slightly relaxed, not as indifferent as before.

But in any case, this is a very good signal, at least her image with Delphis is developing in a good direction, and it is only a matter of time before a friendly relationship is established.

Looking at the remaining batch of books in the bookcase, Eileen pursed her thin lips lightly, and her blood-red eyes reflected a flowing luster on the glass.

She suddenly thought that if Delphis could only borrow books from her, wouldn't she be able to freely choose what kind of information she would get.

On a shallower level, Elena can filter out high-quality books, so as to avoid letting the other party come into contact with inferior books with bad content. Looking deeper, she can also let Delphis take her Hope the other person sees something.

A house girl who has lived in a deep palace since she was a child and has no contact with outsiders, the only effective way to obtain information is books, and the cognition and thoughts conveyed by books will have a profound impact on readers.

For example, when a person reads a lot of books that input negative emotions in childhood when the Three Views are not yet mature, it is particularly easy to form an extremely pessimistic and closed-off world-weary personality. This is difficult to change even when she grows up. Her thinking has already changed. Influenced subtly, a set of logical closed loops of self-consumption have been formed, and the views on things and problems have also been deeply ingrained.

This is why Elena would choose to change Delphis instead of Tadel or Andre, the future loli tyrant has not committed the unforgivable sin, and her biological age of 14 has not made her whole After the person has been shaped, she still has the opportunity to reshape, and in the long years to come, she can become a wise emperor who is truly loved by the people and continues the empire.

Caressing the rough texture of the writing, Elena glanced at the wall clock, said to herself that the time was about the same, then reached out and took out a bottle of dark green potion from the bag, took off the cork, and lifted the clean Delicate swan neck in one gulp.

For this kind of potion with weird taste and indescribable taste, fine tasting is a kind of torture for the tongue.

After drinking the potion, Elena stood still for a while, making sure that she wouldn't spit it out after just walking a few steps, then turned around and left the room.

"Dong dong..."

Delphis, who was sitting at the desk reading a book, froze for a moment when she heard a knock on the door, and asked in a low voice.

"Who's knocking on the door?"

There is a high probability that it is An Nuo, but I still have to ask just in case.

"Anno."

Hearing the very familiar female voice in the corridor, Delphis straightened her legs and walked to the door, and slowly opened the door a crack.

"What's the matter?" Delphi asked her.

An Nuo was about to speak, when Rhine in the corner suddenly crawled out of the nest, trotting all the way to the middle of the two, Delphis saw the orange cat was about to rush out of the room, its delicate snow-white calf gently lifted to the right and pressed against the crack of the door, Don't let it continue to run outside.

An Nuo, who noticed the girl's subconscious behavior, remained unchanged, and spoke softly.

"It's nothing, I just want to remind Miss Delvis not to go to bed too late, it's bad for your health."

"It's okay to read the book again tomorrow, there is so much time, and reading at night with the lights on hurts your eyes..."

The woman's gentle voice echoed gently in the quiet corridor, and even the cold moonlight falling on the brick surface became gentle like water.

After listening to An Nuo's words, Delphisi pursed her lips a few times, and the dark tide surged in her eyes.

"You...just to tell me this?"

At first, she thought that An Nuo had forgotten to mention some other terms of the deal, but her heart suddenly sank.

An Nuo nodded: "Well, the castle is cold, so Miss Delvis should pay more attention to her body alone."

More than eight years of living alone, An Nuo didn't know how Delphis survived. The book only mentioned a few words about it lightly, but it was the most difficult time for a person.

"..."

Delphis was silent for a long time when she heard the words, her eyes gradually lowered, until Rhine tried to crawl over her ankle restlessly, then she slowly raised her head with a deep tone.

"I see..."

"Miss Annuo too."

After closing the door, the orange beam of light disappeared before her eyes, and Elena stood in front of Delphis' bedroom, not leaving for a long time.

When the other party came to open the door, she didn't hear the sound of pulling out the latch, which meant that Delphis wasn't actually locked. This kind of insignificant detail is enough to prove something.

It seems that her harvest today is a little bigger than expected.

At the same time, Delphis, who sat back in the book chair, put her legs together and stared at the black and yellow pages in front of her with her green eyes.

Sleeping late is bad for your health...

Reading at night with lights on hurts the eyes...a person should pay more attention...

When was the last time someone cared so much about her?

Delphis squinted her eyes, biting her pink lips tightly with her white teeth.

The mother in the memory would not persuade her to go to bed early so gently, she would only force her to close her eyes by beating and scolding, and later on, the nominal father would not care about everything about her at all.

Not when, but never before, their concern for her is not even as good as this strange woman who has only met for more than a week and who has been away from her for an unknown number of generations.

Even if An Nuo's concern is just a hypocritical courtesy... the warmth she feels at this moment cannot be faked anyway...

Anno Fercis, it would be great if you were not from the Fercis family.

This way... she doesn't have to spend so much effort forcing herself to hate her...

After a few minutes, Delphis opened her eyes again, and the struggle and entanglement in her eyes disappeared.

That night, she didn't listen to An Nuo's words to go to bed earlier, but lit the lamp and read the book all night until dawn. She heard the sound of footsteps in the corridor, put down the book slowly, walked to the door of the room and approached the door back position.

The sound of hard boot heels hitting the floor tiles gradually faded away, and finally disappeared completely. Delphis opened the door, smelling the faint fragrance of flowers and plants in the air, and walked to the stairs gently.

The stone steps spiral down to the ground, and a beautiful figure with blond hair and white skirt steps on the steps and walks towards the gate step by step.

Sensing that there seemed to be eyes falling behind him, An Nuo raised his head and looked up, and the guardrail on the sixth floor was empty.

Is it an illusion... Eileen was stroking the hairband on the top of her head as she thought to herself, preparing for her next release of the lightness technique.

In the room, Delphis, who had already been exhausted from suffering, closed the door, her delicate body shrank into the bed, and slowly closed her eyes.

Volume 116: Chapter [-] Chapter [-] The Earl of Byron is blind!

After a good morning's sleep, Elena, who had regained her spirits, left the bedroom and had lunch served by Testia and Catherine. She was about to go to the library to find some books suitable for Delphis to read. Putting down the fork, she then remembered another matter that she had put aside for a long time.

The perfume deal between her and the Bulstrode family is going on in an orderly manner. A few days ago, Claire sent someone to report that she would be invited to the pharmacy where the perfume is made. After careful calculation, the agreed date seems to be Today, she has been focusing on Delphis recently, and she almost forgot about it.

Just at this time, Catherine reminded: "Miss Elena, Ms. Claire invites you to attend the investigation of hidden dangers in the perfume making process and the related ribbon-cutting ceremony in the afternoon. The venue is set to be at No. 32 Price Street."

Pris Street is located on the edge of Xicheng District and the suburbs. It takes about half an hour to drive from the Imperial Palace.

Elena wiped her lips gracefully when she heard the words, put Sipa on the tray that Testia was holding, and slowly stood up straight.

"When exactly?" Elena asked.

Catherine replied: "02:30 in the afternoon, according to the servant, if Miss Elena has something to do, you can decide the time yourself, or you can choose another day."

"Then 02:30, so as not to keep Miss Claire waiting."

"Understood, I'll arrange a carriage now."

"You don't have to do it yourself. Leave the trip to the other maids. You and Testia will go to eat first, and you will have to inspect it with me later. It's easy to be distracted when you're hungry."

"Okay, Miss Elena."

After listening to Elena's words, Catherine put one hand on her chest and bowed slightly, and responded in a calm tone. Testia, who was on the side, listened to the conversation between the master and servant, and her sky blue eyes sparkled with clear water.

Although His Royal Highness Elena said it was for herself on the surface, she was actually taking care of her and Miss Catherine.

As long as Earl Byron is not involved, Princess Elena is really gentle in other situations.

Twenty or ten minutes later, a group of three people boarded the carriage to Price Street. When they arrived at their destination, there was still about a quarter of an hour before the appointed time. Elena looked at Testy, who was standing obediently beside her. Ya, suddenly thought of something, so she turned to ask the reception staff at the door.

"Is Mr. Byron Bulstrode in today?"

The servant in charge of receiving Elena nodded, and said in a respectful tone: "Reporting to Your Highness Elena, the Earl is also in the medicine refining workshop."
