Lord Witch, please don't resurrect me again!

Lao Li was shocked by her super confident speech - if other women say this, no matter how beautiful they are, they will always feel that they are showing off, but when Teves said it, it seemed to be stating a fact, as if is saying:

Here!The sky is blue, the fire is hot, and I am beautiful.

that's the truth.

However, Her Royal Highness seemed to be talking nonchalantly, and she continued to say:

"However, Leoric, you are more beautiful than me! If you say that the most beautiful person among the plateau people is you, I am willing to bow down, so I like you very much."

Her voice was not loud, but her voice was resonant. Her voice echoed on the empty sky lake, and every word was like thunder on the ground.

"Huh?" Leoric opened his mouth, but couldn't speak.

Such a straight ball?Leoric couldn't keep up with the rhythm of this woman's speech at all, and he couldn't fix this straight-forward, open-close move.

How do I pick this up?If I knew it earlier, I would have listened to Shia and brought her here!It seems that the word "shy" does not exist in the princess's dictionary, but I can't do it!

"I'm just a vulgar man covered in sweat and smelly, I can't be called beautiful..." Leoric planned to say a few words modestly.

"No! Leoric, your face is the most handsome I have ever seen; your heart is the cleanest I have ever seen; your strength is also the strongest I have ever seen; and your body— —Although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but judging from the legend, it is as fit and handsome as a classical sculpture. So I said, you are the most beautiful man in the world today, is there anything wrong with that?"

Teves said some bad words, but there was no evil in her eyes looking at Leoric.Those eyes were sincere and pure, definitely not like someone with evil intentions.

Leoric was dumb again - bad, bad, I can't even catch a single card from this princess!If this development continues, she must be eaten!

As soon as the two talked, the boat had arrived at an island in the middle of the lake.This small island is only about the size of a basketball court, with a thatched shed in the middle, and a clear spring below, gurgling water.There is also a canal under the spring, which leads the spring water to flow meanderingly; beside the canal are a few small and exquisitely carved stone benches, and beside the stone benches are several long-handled water cups. Drink water straight away.Looking at this scene, Leoric thought of the text he had learned in school in his previous life, and the "Liu Shang Qu Shui" mentioned in it must have the same form.

Moreover, Leoric also vaguely smelled a scent of wine, but he didn't know where it came from. Could it be that Teves still brought wine?

Tevis and Leoric sat down facing each other, and took an oil lamp from the hut on the island.Then Teves said, "Leoric, let me ask you, do you want to be king?"

What?Is it so exciting when you come up?Although Leoric had already seen Teves's "art of speaking", he was still shocked when he was asked this directly.Leoric looked at Teves, and Teves was also looking at him at this time. The princess looked calm and indifferent, not as if she was asking a "sentence", but like ordinary chatting.

Leoric thought for a while, and said: "To be honest, Leoric has some talents and ambitions in his heart. If His Highness trusts me and is willing to hand over the important weapon of the country to me, I will definitely be able to make a career. , will never betray your trust."

Teves nodded and said: "I understand, you have the will to be a king, but you are a loyal person, and you don't want to do things that are disobedient, so you want to talk to me, and you want to talk to me in a civilized way. , and run this country with me."

It's all said and done, and there's no point in hiding it, not to mention that Teves invited him to the Tianhu Night Talk today, just for the two of them to have a frank conversation.Leoric saw that this woman was so straightforward, and the heroic spirit in his heart also occupied the high ground, suppressing the petty bourgeois character in his previous life, he said: "I only want real power, not false fame, at least I want to control military power and financial power , and more than [-]% of the land, without the support of these things, I would not be able to defeat the barbarians and demons, nor would I be able to lead the plateau people to recover their homeland."

Teves nodded and said, "That's all I want to hear from you."

"Your Highness?" Leoric was puzzled.

Tevis stood up from the stone bench—her back was straight, the silver moonlight soaked her white face, and her face was also soaked. She was facing north, like a goddess under the moon, and like a Is a tough fighter.

"Then let me tell you what I think."

"I already had the idea of ​​co-governing the country with you. You are good at fighting, and I have the talent to manage the world. You expand the territory to the outside world, and I will govern the country internally. When the time comes, we will have one outside and one inside, one military and one literary. , why worry about the country’s unhappiness? I will make you a marshal of the Northern Expedition, or your king, my queen, whatever you want.”

This is indeed the best policy, but Leoric did not expect that Teves could let go of the status of "royal orthodoxy".

Tivis then said: "However, the people around me said that I must become a queen and revitalize the royal family. They also invited my father's suicide note, which indeed ordered me to do my best to help the royal family." , To keep every inch of the royal family's land, every piece of property, protect every person who flows from the royal family, and those who are loyal to us.

"There are some unbreakable principles in people's hearts. Just like Leoric, you don't want to be a rebel who kills the king. I can't go against my father's last wish." Tivis looked at him at this point, "I wonder if you can understand my difficulty?"

"I can understand." Leoric nodded.

Teves coughed dryly, and said seriously: "Since ancient times, there has been no two days, and only one of you and I can be king."

"However, if I claim to be the sole king and only allow you a false position, you will not be convinced, and the soldiers will not be convinced, not to mention you, I also feel not convinced! The throne is created by fighting, how can it be stolen? I Not a stolen crown!"

"Your Highness is really magnanimous." Leoric thought deeply.

"But if you are allowed to be the king, I will violate my father's last wish and face my ancestors without face. If you win Lizi but lose your righteousness, you will become a traitor and be cast aside by others."

That's true too, Leoric thought, we're both stuck in a dilemma now.Especially Teves, if she obeys her father's last wish and becomes king on her own and defends the old royal system, she will be an enemy of me, and she will also violate her lifelong wish of "revitalizing the country and restoring the homeland".

But if Teves enshrines me as king, or if we rule the country together, she will not be able to pass the threshold of conscience, and even if she dies, she will have no face to face the ancestors of the Nashrut family.

From Leoric's point of view, it is certainly possible to force Teves to abandon her father's will and stand with him.But Leoric himself is more looking forward to how Teves will resolve this deadlock?After all, Teves called him to Tianhu in the middle of the night to "make a break", not to complain like a bitter woman.

Sure enough, Teves continued: "Then what should I do? I don't want either of these two outcomes."

"I've thought about it, but I can't figure it out."

"Finally, last night I figured it out!" she exclaimed.

Teves suddenly turned to face Leoric, and saw that she was excited and her eyes were full of stars.Leoric felt goosebumps all over his body, and he said, "What can your Highness do?"

"Let's compete!" Teves stretched out his hand and said loudly.

"Battle?"

"Yes! Contest! My father's last wish is to 'do my best to protect the throne', so I just need to do my best! As for whether I can keep it, that is God's will."

"So let's fight, Leoric!"

"If you can defeat me, then the throne belongs to you! Tomorrow I will announce our wedding, and the throne is my dowry. Since then, the empire has changed its name, its flag's color, and the royal family's surname—whatever it is, is up to you .You are the only king, and I will be your queen. You don’t have to worry about the female relatives at home. I will treat them as sisters. Then you will expand your territory outside and make a big splash! The barbarians and demons will run away with their heads in their arms! I will Build a city to accumulate food, recruit talented people, and create a rich and stable rear area. You and I are both born heroes, future heroes. We are husband and wife with one heart, internal cultivation and external struggle, are you afraid that the empire will not prosper?"

Teves pointed to the north, the white was rippling with the wind, she was full of vigor, and the light in her eyes was brighter than the light of the stars and the moon.

"If you lose to me, you can be my son-in-law with peace of mind—you are both the Duke of Wild Wolf City and the son-in-law. I will try to make you a general of the Northern Expedition later. It's not as spectacular as 'King Leoric', but it can still achieve some success."

How could you say such bold words?What kind of strange woman is this?Leoric was also aroused by these words, and he said loudly: "Okay, happy! Then draw your sword!" Leoric said and pulled out the giant butcher and Eyepecker.

"Hey, wait a minute!" Teves raised her right hand.

"Isn't it a contest?" Leoric asked with a puzzled expression.

⑧ Two 7 One

Chapter 210 Nine: King's Contest

Teves shook her head, and I said, "If it's a life-and-death fight, it's not a contest between kings, but a contest between beasts—you see, swordsmanship is superb, but it can't be used as a memorial; Govern the country, right?"

Leoric sheathed his sword and asked, "Then how do you want to compete?"

Teves said: "If you want to be a king! You must have great strength, a wise mind and a great mind!"

She stretched out three fingers and said, "Leoric, what do you think?"

Leoric thought for a while and said, "I agree."

"Then let's compare these three, win two out of three games, the one who wins two games will be the real king, and the other person will be the opponent's courtier."

"If I win, you will be my son-in-law. Of course, my love for you will not diminish."

"If you win, I will bow my head and become your woman. From then on, I will be loyal. If my husband asks me to kill, I will draw my sword. If my husband asks me to die, I will kill myself."

"How about it, Leoric!"

No one has ever challenged him like this!Leoric agreed immediately, and said, "Okay! Teves! I just like women like you, so I'll conquer you."

What Leoric said was not a scene, he really fell in love with this woman.Teves's boldness, wisdom, courage and determination are all rare in the world, presumably her valuable personality, her unique beauty is not even important... oh, it is also very important!At this moment, Teves was facing Leoric sideways, the moonlight shone on her chest, and a silver curve appeared in Leorick's pupils.

so big!Even the full moon tonight is not as big-hearted as her!Is this the queen of the plateau?I must have her!

...and then tuck the whole face in.

Teves said: "Well, there are three contests, the first is strength, which includes the ability to lead troops to fight, and personal martial arts. Although I am proficient in swordsmanship and archery, I am obviously not as good as you. If I admit defeat in one item, I don’t need to fight.”

Although Teves is proud, she is also very self-aware, Leoric thought, much better than other royal relatives.

Teves continued: "The second contest is the wisdom of governing the country. I ask myself, no one in the plateau can match me in this aspect of talent. Leoric, I heard that you are also very good. I am knowledgeable, but I am afraid that I am not my opponent in politics."

Leoric said: "Not necessarily." After all, he came from time travel and knew a lot of knowledge beyond the times.

Teves said: "But the way of governing the country is difficult to compete. You and I can argue all night, and it will be hard to tell the winner after all. Only by looking at the results of governing the country can we tell whether a person is a wise king—but, Leoric , I have seen your ability to govern towns in Wild Wolf City, and you have also seen how I healed diseases for Wild Wolf City. At that time, you also said that governing towns is your weakness, so you handed everything over to Give me this 'Miss Hannah' to take care of it. From this point of view, you should be inferior to me in managing the town. From the small to the big, the country is probably the same, what do you think?"

This woman!He is really bold and cunning, generous and petty, Leoric laughed dumbfounded, and said, "Forget it, tell me first, how do you compare the third contest?" Listen to the complete rules first, and then decide whether to argue with her or not. Leoric thought.

Teves said: "The so-called strength is the most difficult to compete with, but I have a trick, so that we can roughly understand each other's strength—hey, Leoric, do you know how to drink?"

"How can a soldier know how to drink... Wait, what are you doing?"

Leoric saw Teves take out two large wooden cups from the shed, the large cups were bigger than draft beer, probably more than half a liter.Teves installed two large wooden cups on the long handle of the water fetching handle, then handed one to Leoric, and said, "Take a cup of spring water and taste it."

"spring?"

Leoric took the clear spring from the island in the center of the lake with the long-handled wooden cup, held it to his nose and sniffed it, and was startled, saying, "Why does this spring water run out of wine?"

Teves smiled and said: "This place is called 'Bren Spring', and it is the first wonder in the swamp! Legend has it that the plateau hero 'Barrel Brun' followed the Nashrut family to fight in the swamp, and later because he was hit by He died under the curse of the demons. When he was dying, he said: "Bury me in Tianhu Lake in Wangcheng. I will protect the plateau people here forever, until a plateau king takes us back to our hometown." My ancestors obeyed their wishes Bu Lun was buried on this small island in the middle of the lake. Unexpectedly, in the second year, a clear spring burst open here, and all the spirits flowed out of it! Everyone knows that Bu Lun is the number one wine tycoon in the plateau, so everyone It is said that this spring is the incarnation of Brun's heroic spirit, and it is called 'Bren's Spring'."

Teves filled a cup full and said loudly: "Now, let the ancestor heroic spirits witness the birth of the new king, Leoric! The third contest! The amount of alcohol is the amount of energy! A drunk hero, if he can't drink enough, he can't be king."

"Okay!" Leoric also filled a glass of wine, and said, "Then let's use this contest to decide the outcome! The first glass, to the hero Brun!"

"To Brun!"

The two clinked glasses in the drain, and drank it all in one gulp. After drinking, they tacitly turned the glasses upside down, and there was really not a drop left!

"Good wine!" said Leoric.

"Nice!" said Teves.

Leoric filled another glass of wine and said, "Then this glass, to the ancestors of all ages!"

"Okay, respect the ancestors!"

The two drank it down again, and turned the glass upside down after drinking, it was still clean.

In the blink of an eye, he had already drank two glasses of spirits, not to mention the amount of alcohol, even if it was water, there was as much as a bottle of Coke. I am afraid that if he drinks like this again, his stomach will not be able to bear it.

Leoric then suggested: "This is good wine, you should drink it slowly and savor it carefully."

It wasn't that Leoric couldn't drink anymore, but he was afraid that Teves would drink too much with him in a fit of temper and ruin his health.

Teves laughed, and said, "It's not too late to get a closer look after the outcome has been decided."

This woman is really stubborn.

"That's good, pay homage to the fallen soldiers!" Leoric filled another large cup.

"To the fallen soldiers!" Teves raised his glass.

……

Teves deserves to be a woman with the blood of an emperor, her drinking capacity is really exaggerated.The alcohol content of this spring water is not low. Leoric's meat test has about [-] to [-] degrees, which is close to the low-alcohol liquor he drank in his previous life.In this era of single-digit alcohol content, it is a proper spirit.However, Teves kept drinking one glass after another, filled it up every time, and sat down in one mouthful. She never kept a whale.The two of them didn't have any food to eat, so they served the wine with pride, adding to the fun in the name of heroic spirits, wishing they could finish drinking the strong wine and sweet spring.

After drinking the tenth cup, Leoric felt bloated, so he proposed to go to the bathroom.As soon as he stood up, the spirit of alcohol surged up, and he felt dizzy and his body swayed.

"Hey, Leoric, if you drink it down, you've lost!" Teves, who was across the canal, said with a smile.

"Don't worry!" Leoric staggered, then stood firm and said, "This is just the beginning!"

Leoric came to the back of the thatched house to relieve himself, and released the several liters of spirits in his body. With the circulation of body fluids, Leoric's powerful body recovery began to take effect, and he felt the alcohol in his body dissipate. , the mind gradually became clear, and the feet were steady and powerful, instead of fluttering like before.

This princess is quite drinkable, Leoric thought, no wonder she picked this one over me.

Leoric didn't go back directly, but took a sneak peek at Tevez, and saw her standing by the canal, moving her arms and back, it seemed that this was just a warm-up for Tevesh.Leoric thought: Looks like I've got to get real!

"King of Northern Xinjiang, set my liver on fire!"

Previously, the heroic spirit of Targothus, the king of the northern border, reached the self-level, adding a holy relic effect to Leoric.The effect is to give him three iron-like livers!Together with Leoric's own liver, there are four livers!Sister, I know you can drink very well, but when you face Leoric with four livers + fast recovery, you can only bow down.

Leoric coughed dryly, came out from behind the shed, and said, "Devis, let's start the next round."

At this time, Teves hadn't realized the seriousness of the problem, she was standing by the water, taking advantage of the slight evening breeze to sober up, when she heard Leoric's speech, she couldn't help laughing: "Oh, you can still drink it ? As expected of Lord Leoric."

Leoric yelled, "Don't talk nonsense, come on!"

"it is good!"

The two filled up another big glass, and then poured it down, although both of them drank until there was not a drop left.But this time Teves obviously drank slower than before. She secretly glanced at Leoric while drinking, and frowned in surprise when she saw that Leoric's speed hadn't slowed down, but was much faster.

After drinking this cup, another cup, after this cup, there are three more cups, Leoric one cup after another, the more you drink, the more anxious you are, the faster you drink!It seems that the stomach is a bottomless pit, and tons and tons are poured down. Let alone a human being, even an elephant would be ashamed to see it.

Teves also changed from surprise at the beginning to surprise, from surprise to admiration, and finally from admiration to panic!

What kind of alcohol is this?Teves was also dumbfounded. She asked herself, she could drink a thousand drinks without getting drunk, but how could Leoric drink more than a thousand drinks?People in the plateau have always had the saying that capacity for alcohol is capacity for gas. From this point of view, Leoric really has the capacity for an emperor.No, this is more than just the spirit of the king!This is simply not human.

"Master Leoric, that..." Teves almost vomited it out as soon as she opened her mouth, and she hiccupped rudely, not caring about her image, and said, "Didn't you say that good wine should be tasted slowly?" Shall we drink it slowly?"

Leoric showed a mocking expression, and said: "Huh? But don't you say, do you want to wait until the winner is divided and then taste it slowly? Come on, come on, hurry up! I will do it first!" Leo Rick As Rick spoke, he filled another glass of spirits and blew it down.

Teves was already timid, but she didn't want to admit defeat, so she said: "Well, just wait for me, and I'll come when I go." She also wanted to make it easier.

"Okay, you go first, I'll drink first." Leoric said.

What?You drink first?What do you mean by drinking first, Lord Leoric!After walking a few steps, Teves quietly turned her head back, and saw Leoric began to pour himself a drink. With an unbelievable expression on her face, Teves hurried back and said, "How much more can you drink?"

"It's hard to say, let me drink and watch." So Leoric started his performance.

Tivis stared at Leoric's swollen abdomen, swallowed involuntarily, and said nervously: "Leoric, I know you are huge, but don't force yourself, if you drink badly your body will not alright……"
