"No, buddy..."

Looking at this low and dilapidated wooden house, Xia En almost blurted out a comment.

But when he thought about it, he realized that Edward's situation in the Kingdom of Turin might not be that good.

The previous assassination was only one aspect.

More importantly, as a prince, Edward's personal bodyguard only had a fifth-level George.

This is enough to illustrate the embarrassment of his situation.

Thinking about it, renting this small wooden house in [City of Giant Woods] has already brought a lot of burden to Edward.

Realizing this, Xia En immediately adjusted his mood and spoke openly.

"I think this place is not bad, Yan Yan, let's go."

Edward was quite embarrassed and guilty because of the shabby residence.

But seeing Xia En's nonchalant attitude, she naturally knew that he was trying to save face for herself, and she couldn't help but feel touched.

In fact, Edward's situation is worse than Shane expected.

Although he is the fifth prince of the Kingdom of Turin, he is also the least respected prince.

the reason is simple.

Edward was not a child born to the queen or princess of the Kingdom of Turin, but the son of an ordinary village woman.

In other words, he was actually the king's illegitimate son.

In the Kingdom of Turin, which adheres to the spirit of chivalry, illegitimate children are dishonorable to the entire family and will bring chaos and stain to the entire family.

It would be okay if the King of Turin didn't recognize Edward as his son and just cared about him secretly.

Edward might be able to grow up safely, eventually become a farmer and a wealthy man, and spend his old age in secret.

But maybe it's because of so-called love, or maybe it's just a moment of enthusiasm.

The King of Turin chose the worst path—

He took Edward back to the palace with great fanfare, gave him the surname "Phoenix", and officially made him the fifth prince of the Kingdom of Turin.

Such absurd behavior naturally caused an uproar in the Kingdom of Turin.

But the king went his own way and suppressed all objections.

No matter how angry the people of Turin Kingdom were, they did not dare to openly resist the king.

As a result, their target was pointed at the innocent Edward.

A lowly illegitimate son became the prince of the kingdom and obtained the right of inheritance. Of course, many people would be dissatisfied.

This is the root cause of Edward's miserable situation.

This time he came to [City of Giant Trees] to attend the Conference of All Nations, with the idea of ​​​​avoiding the fierce public opinion in the country.

It's just that Edward didn't expect...

He wanted to avoid trouble, but trouble always came to him.

Just like this time.

Edward was about to lead Xia En into the cabin to rest, but a not-so-friendly voice came from behind him.

"Isn't this our fifth prince, His Highness Edward?"

The speaker was a young, fat man, also wearing fancy clothes, with chubby cheeks. He seemed to be a few years younger than Edward.

At first glance, he looks like a pampered aristocrat.

George recognized his identity, frowned slightly, and whispered to Xia En and the others: "This is the youngest son of the prime minister's family, Xi Mei."

"I will not deal with His Highness Edward in the kingdom."

Ximei glanced at the low wooden house behind Edward and couldn't help but sneered.

"Humph, you are indeed the child of a prostitute."

"The style of this house really complements yours!"

People in the Kingdom of Turin are always willing to speculate and comment on Edward's mother with the greatest malice.

This also caused her to be unable to bear the pressure and finally chose to commit suicide.

In Edward's mind, his mother has always been his biggest enemy!

Upon hearing this, Edward immediately frowned, with dark anger in his eyes, and said solemnly: "My mother is not a prostitute!"

"Ximei, I think you have insulted the honor of the royal family."

"You have to apologize to me!"

Ximei was stunned for a moment, feeling a little panicked.

He didn't expect Edward to react so strongly and act so toughly.

On weekdays, Edward usually just tolerates this kind of cynicism silently, causing Sime to mistakenly think that he is very weak and timid.

Therefore, Edward's sudden counterattack now exceeded Xi Mei's expectations.

But in front of everyone, Ximei certainly didn't want to apologize so easily and said harshly.

"I'm just stating the facts. Do I have to be punished for telling the truth?"

"oh?"

A coldness flashed in Edward's eyes and he asked: "In other words, do you think that the current King of Turin, my father, will be a man who gave birth to a child with a prostitute?"

Hearing this question, Ximei was shocked and turned pale.

He finally realized that he had made a serious mistake.

It's certainly okay to belittle and ridicule Edward and his mother.

After all, the status of an illegitimate child is destined to bring about blank looks and criticism.

But if the King of Turin is involved, the problem will be serious!

No matter what, he is the king of a country. If you dare to speak ill of him in public, do you still want to hang out in the kingdom in the future?

On the side, Xia En also noticed the subtlety of Edward's words and couldn't help but give him a high look.

Although the fifth prince looked weak, he was obviously capable and scheming.

There is also a possibility that this weak and bully appearance is just a disguise for him!

"Sure enough, no one who can be a prince is simple."

Xia En sighed in his heart.

"But what does this have to do with me?"

He did not travel back to this era to help any prince win the throne, and he was not very interested in the love and hatred within the Kingdom of Turin.

After all.

If it is true as Shane guessed, the Great Flood was only about ten years away from this era.

The so-called princes and kings will only become waves in the flood.

At this time, the argument between Edward and Ximei attracted the attention of other passers-by on the street.

The group of [Black Flame Walkers] who were about to enter the gate also set their sights in this direction.

"Huh?"

One of the petite men in black robes, his eyes fell on Xia En and the two men who were also wearing robes, and he couldn't help but let out a sigh.

"Irina, what's wrong?"

Beside her, Sergey, who was as strong as a brown bear, asked in an angry voice.

As residents of the Far North, their pronunciation of the language is somewhat different from that of mainland lingua franca.

Irina stared at Yan Yan in the crowd and whispered.

"Look at that man in black robe, does he look a bit like Wang?"

Sergey glanced in that direction and couldn't help laughing: "He is wearing a robe, how do you see that he looks like the king?"

Irina defended: "It's the figure! The figure!"

Sergey still disagreed and said carelessly: "There are many people with similar figures in the world."

"Besides, the king is still fighting **** battles in the north. How could he come to participate in such a boring conference?"

[Black Flame Walker] is the elite of the Great Yan Kingdom. He is used to the life of an ascetic and is a natural fighting maniac.

For the exquisite and comfortable atmosphere of the elves, it is inevitable to feel a little contempt in my heart.

"That's quite true..."

Irina had to admit that Sergey had a point.

But she always felt that the man in black robe was not only similar in body shape to Wang, but also had a very unique and familiar temperament.

At this time in the field.

Edward insisted on Ximei's apology.

However, Ximei refused to bow her head because of her face, nor did she admit that she had any disrespect towards the king.

For a while, the two sides were in a stalemate.

Suddenly, a young man dressed in unusual clothes spoke. "Edward, that's pretty much it."

Seeing this young man, the crowd burst into a small uproar.

"It's His Highness Carlo, the Second Prince!"

"I didn't expect him to come to the Conference of All Nations!"

"Actually, I heard that His Highness the Second Prince is the core figure of the mission and can make decisions on behalf of the King. The rest are just incidental."

Unlike the notorious and embarrassing Edward, the second prince Carlo received a lot of attention as soon as he appeared on the scene.

This second prince is a strong contender for the throne and has made considerable achievements several times.

The reputation level has been raised very high.

Now, after hearing Carlo's words of persuasion, Edward's face suddenly became a little ugly.

But he still gritted his teeth and said: "That's enough, Ximei has to apologize first!"

Ximei received Carlo's support, her eyes immediately brightened, and she said confidently.

"I said nothing wrong, why should I apologize?"

"…you!"

Just as Edward was about to speak, another girl of a similar grade in the crowd scolded him coldly.

"That's enough, Edward, how long are you going to let outsiders watch this farce?"

This woman's identity is also unusual. She is the fourth princess of the Kingdom of Turin and has always been on good terms with the Prime Minister's family.

Speaking out at this time, it was obvious that he was blatantly favoring Ximei.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is the second prince and the fourth princess working together to put pressure on Edward.

The meaning of rejection and disgust is very obvious.

There is no way, who told him to be an illegitimate child?

Edward clenched his fists, a look of humiliation on his face.

He had long known that his brother and sister didn't like him, but now, the sight of the two of them helping outsiders to speak still made him feel chilled.

Seeing that the situation had reversed, Xi Mei became even more arrogant.

And Xia En, who was wearing black robes and looked particularly suspicious, quickly became the target of his attack.

"Your Highness Edward, why do you hang out with these sneaky and suspicious people all day long?"

"What if there is an assassin mixed in?"

Ximei said sarcastically: "Oh, I know."

"Birds of a feather flock together."

"Your Highness is the son of a prostitute, so he naturally likes to hang out with these despicable people."

Shane frowned slightly.

He was originally too lazy to meddle in such nosy matters, but now that the other party was pointing at him and scolding him, he naturally could no longer stay out of it.

When Xia En was about to teach this little fat man a lesson, a commotion suddenly broke out in the crowd not far away.

"what happened?"

The second prince Carlo looked back.

Soon, enthusiastic people responded: "It is Her Majesty the Queen's car!"

"The Queen is here!"

Hearing this, everyone immediately became excited.

After coming to [City of Giant Woods] for so long, they have heard the deeds of this queen candidate many times from the elves.

But this is the first time to see each other in person!

-Although that person has not officially been crowned, people are already used to calling her "Her Majesty the Queen".

This also shows the prestige of this elf.

Carlo, who had always maintained a calm and calm attitude before, couldn't help but look solemn, straightened his clothes, and looked solemnly in the direction of the sound.

I want to leave a good impression on the Elf Queen.

Although the Kingdom of Turin is also a well-known power on the mainland.

But in this era, the most powerful one is still the elven kingdom that masters advanced technology and magic!

Naturally, the Elven Queen is also one of the most powerful people in the world.

The fourth princess who was making things difficult for Edward looked over with expectation and admiration.

As a woman, the Elf Queen is like a role model to her.

In the blink of an eye.

People's attention was completely attracted by the Elf Queen. Edward and Ximei, who were previously in the spotlight, became uninterested.

Edward sighed, with a complex look on his face, envious and bitter at the same time.

Like everyone else, Xia En also looked in the direction from which the Queen's Seat driver came.

soon.

A steam locomotive composed of pipes, levers and gears slowly drove into everyone's sight.

Xia En's expression couldn't help but be a little strange.

Although it is a steam locomotive, its shape is very similar to the previous carriages. The carriage is closed and there are windows on both sides.

The exterior of the vehicle has a large number of exquisite and gorgeous decorations, and there are several elf attendants following on both sides of the motorcycle.

It seems that the style of painting is quite mixed.

However, the setting is still very luxurious.

Some people couldn't help but feel a little disappointed because they couldn't see the Elf Queen.

But that's it.

A gentle voice came from inside the carriage.

"What happened here?"

Obviously, the previous dispute here was the reason for the Queen's approach.

Ximei explained in a panic: "It's just a small dispute."

"Her Majesty has nothing to worry about."

He is also a smart man and knows that if things get too big, it will not be of any benefit to himself or the Kingdom of Turin.

Moreover, even the second prince and fourth princess could not protect themselves in front of the Elf Queen.

"Really? Why did I hear that some people called our guests in [Giant Wood City] dirty people?"

As he said that, the people in the car gently opened the curtains and looked out.

Everyone held their breath and stared at the windows nervously, fearing that they would miss the elf queen's true appearance.

After the curtains were opened, people fell into a daze.

The person in the car has a breathtaking beauty, and his facial features are like the most perfect creation of God.

She is so beautiful, with her platinum-blond waist-length hair hanging naturally, shining in the light, reminiscent of the cool moonlight at night.

Even if only half of the face is exposed, countless people will be fascinated by it.

This is the queen of the elves!

With such stunning beauty, it’s no wonder she rarely appears in the city.

At this moment, many people had the idea that their trip was worthwhile.

But soon, people were shocked to find that the Queen's gaze stopped in one direction for a long time.

And, gradually...

A hazy mist accumulated in her eyes, like pearls covered with dust.

People can't help but feel pity.

Who on earth could make such a woman heartbroken?

But in the next moment.

The Queen suddenly smiled. It was a surprise and pure smile, more beautiful than a thousand flowers in full bloom.

This impact, which ranged from hurt to surprise, made people lose the ability to speak for a while.

Immediately, in the disbelief eyes of everyone.

The Queen opened the car door and ran in one direction like a girl.

No hesitation or hesitation.

Finally, she hugged a figure wearing a black robe tightly and whispered.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Shane: "Long time no see, Laila."
