Chapter 120 The Queen's Mischief(1/2)
Chapter 120 The Queen's Prank
Elizabeth Susu returned to her kingdom, just like a wandering wanderer who returned to her hometown after a long time ago. She felt indescribable comfort in her heart.
Garfield is her distant uncle, and Orseya is her playmate since childhood. When she arrived here, every grass, every tree, every flower, every tree, everything she brought to her was warm and beautiful memories.
She did not wear expensive and gorgeous queen costumes, and because she could only secretly attend the Christmas celebration of Goddess Hope. When she came, she wore the costume of the maid of the Grand Duke's Mansion. She did not change it here, which made her easier and more comfortable, just like the innocent and romantic girl life when she was not a queen and did not marry Grand Duke Butani.
"Hey, you continue to say, what happened later?"
Su Su held her chin and listened with relish: "I really don't know these things?"
"Well..., let me tell you, don't tell others."
Orseya's face turned red because she could not remember how many of her friends she was instructed: "Later, Jade lost power and was in a very dangerous situation in the Principality of Norman. He could be imprisoned by a referendum at any time. At the most difficult time, his beloved wife Angelina Julie left him."
"Ah!" Elizabeth Susu covered her mouth in surprise: "What a shameless!"
"That's right? Later, I heard from the second lady of Earl Hosman's house that she ran away with her coachman!"
Orseya said angrily, not knowing that the second lady had just listened to her story. After some artistic processing, she passed the full version of the rumors back to her ears.
"Oh!" Queen Susu sighed softly. Everyone likes to listen to the love story of heroes and beauties, but if this heroes and beauties are as merciless as ordinary people, it sounds really uncomfortable.
The two were chatting, and Jady walked into the mansion with a whip gently. He was a regular visitor to the Garfield mansion and there was no need to inform him.
As soon as he saw Orthia, Jady smiled and said, "Miss Orthia, has the high priest returned home? I heard that the queen has been brought back."
The girl next to him looked back at him. The girl's eyebrows were as far away as the mountains, her inlaid was covered with smoke, and her graceful and charming appearance. Jady couldn't help but lit up.
However, although he had not seen many women, they were all beautiful in the world and had a certain degree of immunity. When he saw the girl dressed in a maid, he felt a little regretful for her, and his expression was very calm.
Queen Susu was also looking at him. She was burly and handsome, and her body was full of masculinity. She showed her white teeth when she smiled, just like the afternoon sunshine, so brilliant that people couldn't look directly at it.
Su Su couldn't help but look away, and a bright redness appeared on her pretty face.
"Captain Jady, Queen..."
"The queen has arrived, but she is a little tired all the way and is resting now." Elizabeth Susu grabbed the conversation and asked with a smile: "You are Captain Jady, are you? You have long admired Daming!"
Jady was stunned and smiled and said, "Yes, I am Jady...Worf, are you?"
"I am the Queen's personal maid Luo Ning. I have heard of your deeds in Butani City. I am very happy to see you here!" Elizabeth Susu lies calmly without blinking.
"Oh...hehe, I'm very happy to meet you, the beautiful Miss Luo Ning."
Jady smiled and nodded to her, then said to Orthia: "Since the queen is resting, I'll come back. I'll go to the monks' group first to see what's going on there."
"Hey, wait a moment!"
Susu's eyes rolled, and she caught up with her a few steps, and said cunningly: "The Queen is very concerned about our Apia situation. I heard that in order to establish her own armed forces in order to establish her own army in order to establish her own sects outside the Knights. The Queen has a noble status and has returned to China secretly this time. It is not convenient for you to visit it publicly. I have told me to observe it carefully for her."
Her little hand was placed behind her and she swayed slightly at Orthia: "Since Captain Jady is going to the monks' group, can you bring me with you?"
The Holy Lin Temple is located at the foot of the Holy Lin Mountain. It is the largest temple in Yamedi City. There are about 4,000 monks in the courtyard. At this time, two monks, one tall and one short, walked in wearing black robes from head to toe.
This one-piece robe has a hat, a pointed hat top, and a robe that drags the ground covers the whole person, revealing only one face. The two had just returned from outside the temple. Perhaps because they felt that there was too much dust on the dry road, they both wore masks and covered them tightly, revealing only a pair of eyes.
On the wide field in front of the temple, there were about a thousand monks undergoing training. They were completely blank, and they had no idea that others were training them in the formal manner of the army.
They were wearing black robes, and some had just returned from Mass, with white towels hanging around their necks. These strong and burly monks carried heavy or long weapons, horse-resisting spears, chain brass hammers, double-sided battle axes, shackles, etc.
As for the terrifying longbows that require great strength to pull and have an effective range of 350 yards, they are all in one. They are the bravest soldiers and the most fierce warriors. Jady only needs to send someone to teach them the skills of killing, and their will and fighting courage are not at all necessary to be taken into account.
Because they are all the most devout people, as long as they tell them that all this is for the existence and continuation of the Goddess Church, they will unswervingly obey any orders, even if they are asked to die, such a team is quite terrible, and the fanatical religious beliefs have made them the most terrible warriors.
The weather is so hot, they are still training very seriously. Anyone can imagine how terrifying lethal it will be if such a team is driven out.
Next to it, the hymns were holding hands in front of their chests, standing under the scorching sun to sing loudly. The hymns were all elderly and children, and the sharp and thick sounds perfectly merged together, creating a strong infectious force in the music.
"Awaken, every devout believer, turns our flesh and blood and faith into our spears and shields. Hope that at the most dangerous time, the pagans are sharpening their swords, destroying our temples, destroying the goddess believers, and our inheritance lingers on the edge of hell..."
The seductive chants made every monk who wielded the copper hammer and smashed the air down fiercely as the enemy. Every monk who set up a dense array of horse-resisting guns with a spear feels that he is engaging in the most sacred work, just as they prayed to the goddess in the temple. This is another kind of practice, and now he can even get God's joy than prayer.
"You see, the monks have strong bodies and practice martial arts in their daily lives. Now they just need to strengthen their cooperation and coordinated combat capabilities. They are the best warriors, as long as they are good at digging."
The leader Jady, who pretended to be a tall monk, said to the person next to him: "Before this, people generally had a very pessimistic view that the Goddess Cult had fallen, and as long as its apology knights were destroyed, this ancient sect that had existed for more than a thousand years would lose its final protection and disappear from then on.
But as long as you are good at discovering, you will see that everyone who believes in it devoutly, as long as you give him the opportunity to participate and express, he can become a force that cannot be ignored. These monks are pious and will never betray them. Together with the Knights of the Blood Rose, they will become the protectors of the people of the Apia Kingdom and the Goddess of Hope that coexist with it. Anyone who tries to destroy it will have to consider the terrible consequences."
"You are such a skilled person. It's so amazing. It's a bit of a metallic effect!"
Susu said in surprise: "No one ever thought that these monks could rely on. They used to be like a group of gentle lambs. Everyone knew that if the Blood Rose Knights were defeated, when the pagans broke into the temple, they would only kneel in front of God and pray, and then beheaded one by one."
"It cannot be said that it is my credit! These monks have the power to protect themselves, but in the process of promoting good and beauty, they gradually forgot that their weapons are not just a doctrine, but also their power. I just reminded them in time."
Queen Susu nodded frequently, her eyes flashing with a ray of surprise and joy.
She first married the Grand Duke Butani out of love for the other party. Butani, the lion god of war, was the most handsome and bravest warrior in the southern country. The ancient Apia Kingdom was adjacent to his principality, but their military strength was completely incomparable.
Whether it is personal conditions or the future of the Apia Kingdom, marrying the Grand Duke Butani under the Queen is a very good choice. What's more, the news that came out at that time was that Emperor Tagore intended to recruit Grand Duke Butani as his son-in-law, but he chose to propose to himself. Any girl would feel a sense of glory and vanity.
But when she married into the Principality of Butani and was looking forward to a beautiful and sweet future, she realized how reasonable the ancient proverb was: a beautiful mushroom may contain a very poison; a beautiful virgin may have an unpleasant armpit odor; don't trust your eyes easily.
Her handsome, elegant, rich in lion, and full of masculine beauty, turned out to be a homosexual. The wedding night that made the girl both excited and scared was spent alone in the bridal chamber. She didn't know why this man who would rather give up the future queen and choose her, and how she treated her like this.
That night, she slept in bed in a dress. The next morning when Grand Duke Butani appeared beside her bed with a smile, there were wet tears on the corners of her eyes. When Grand Duke asked her about her well-being, if she hadn't seen her makeup take off, she would have thought that the cold reception she had last night was her ridiculous dream.
The next day was like this, and the third day was like this. The grand duke took her to meet his subjects and rode her horse around the lake. No matter when and where, he was always a kind husband who was meticulous and considerate to her, except at night, and he would never see his shadow at night.
Elizabeth Susu has a soft and hard character on the outside. If you think that the gentleness she reveals on the outside is like water, it would be wrong. On the fourth night, the queen's forbearance finally reached its limit. She angrily broke into the study of Grand Duke Butani, and finally saw a scene that made her vomit.
Her husband was lying on the bed like a woman. On him, a red-eyed elf was moving in anger. The ugly appearance of the two people was so shocked that the queen was stunned.
The angry queen turned around and tortured the confidant of Mr. Butani, and then she realized his weird habits. This elf was his new love. She had just bought it from a merchant for a lot of money, fed him aphrodisiacs, and then had fun.
The queen was completely desperate, and the deception of the Grand Duke made her very angry, but this was the moment when the Grand Duke Butani was ambitiously planning to invade the Kingdom of Croa. The Grand Duke Butani, whose true face was exposed, threatened her with anger. If he dared to cause any trouble for him, then the army that was ready to lead the army to Croa would set sail to Apia and use force to conquer her kingdom.
The Kingdom of Apia became a hostage to control Queen Elizabeth, and the Queen became a hostage to control the Kingdom of Apia. Susu no longer had any hope for her future. The only thing she could do was sacrifice personal happiness in exchange for Apia's peace. Because she knew very well that Apia was unable to fight with Butani.
But now, Butani is being weakened, with countless enemies outside, the occupied Kingdom of Cloa has restrained many troops, and different internal interest groups are also taking their own ideas. At this time, Apia's growth and rise really made Elizabeth Susu ecstatic.
"All this is brought by this man in front of you, the one who saved me and my kingdom from the abyss!" The queen glanced at Jady with beautiful eyes secretly. His thick eyebrows, divine eyes, straight nose, sexy lips... He is a man!"
"Look, they haven't been training for a long time, but their physique and fighting enthusiasm are enough to make up for their lack of experience. Haha, but I doubt what you can understand. I hope you don't say the wrong thing when replying to the queen."
Jady said with a smile, and when she turned her head, she suddenly saw the queen looking at him with her face raised, her eyes shining brightly, and she couldn't help but say in surprise: "Luo Ning, what's wrong with you? Have you heard me?"
"Oh!" Queen Elizabeth quickly withdrew her gaze, and her eyes were curled into crescent moons: "Of course I heard it. I... I have never heard this hymn before."
Jady laughed and said, "Yes, this is a song written by the priest Salice. She said that these monks have been dealing with hymns all their lives, and the hymns have been integrated into their souls. Using an inspiring music will improve their fighting spirit. You see, the effect is really good."
The queen bit her lip and said carefully: "You have a good impression of her..., right?"
Jady tilted her head and thought for a while, and couldn't help laughing: "She is a very... special girl. I believe that no matter who is with her, she will be very happy. Haha, but she is like a fog, and I haven't seen through her until now."
The Queen heard Orthia say about Salice's dedication to him, but now she stared at Jady's eyes so calm and clear, and it looked as if Orthia said, it was just absurdity after drinking, and he had no memory of all this. Somehow, the Queen's heart suddenly became happy.
"Hey, you two, why are you lazy standing under the shade of a tree?"
As soon as the two turned around, a fat monk came over angrily: "Listen, we have faith in the goddess! We have patience and care for the believers! But we must be careful, there are jackals in this world! Take it! Practice well, just use pale prayers, and cannot express your piety!"
With a "slam", a full-body chain armor was thrown over to Queen Elizabeth. The chain armor weighing forty kilograms seemed to have locked her there, and then a huge copper hammer was stuffed into her hand: "Go and practice martial arts obediently, little guy, otherwise if there is a conflict, the first person to die will be someone like you!"
Jady couldn't help laughing, but before he could laugh, the fat monk turned to him again: "Big man, and you, take this spear, armor, bows and arrows are gone. When Captain Jady transports new goods, I will distribute them to you. This is a sharp weapon made by the dwarf. Train well for the goddess!"
Jady was stunned. After saying that, the big guy picked up a big bucket and walked towards the venue. He carried the big bucket to the center of the venue and knocked the bucket with a spoon: "Hi, take a break, take a break, come and drink some bean soup to relieve the heat."
Queen Elizabeth moved two steps awkwardly and almost fell to the ground. The sledgehammer in her hand hit the ground with a "clang".
Jady couldn't help but smile and said, "Luo Ning, are you thirsty? Let's go, let's drink some soy soup for cooling off."
He took the armor off the queen and pulled her little hand.
The queen's body froze slightly, she pulled her hand back and said coquettishly: "No, I don't want to drink with them."
When Jady saw that the monks who were dancing with swords and sticks were covered in sweat, surrounded the wooden barrels. After you used a wooden spoon, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "What I said is, you are a girl. Let's go, you have seen it anyway. Let's leave here. The shop at the intersection outside the temple made good cooling soup, sour and sweet. Let's go there."
As soon as the two left the temple, they took off their hats. Seeing that her dull face was red, Jady pulled off a few grasses beside the road. She quickly formed a straw hat and smiled and said, "Come on, put it on, it is not stuffy and cool."
"Okay!" The queen glanced at him happily, happy for his considerateness.
"You can help me put it on, I'm afraid I'll mess my hair."
"Yeah!" Jady agreed, looked at the straw hat and put it on her head, and praised: "So beautiful! Now you are like a beautiful forest elf!"
The fragrance of the grass penetrated into my heart. When I listened to Jady's praise, Elizabeth couldn't help but smile sweetly. The sunshine in the sky seemed not so fierce.
Two bowls of iced sugar porridge were sour and sweet, sour and delicious, especially when in a good mood. However, Elizabeth found that Jady did not like sweet and sour things. He only drank a few sips and put down the bowl. It seemed that he came here to drink ice porridge, and he took special care of her, the girl, and felt happier.
From a princess to a queen, she has been growing up in care, but as a girl with an ordinary identity, this is the first time she has received such considerate care from a man.
If she is talking about her appearance, even if her identity is a bit low, she may be flocking to men who are willing to serve her. However, Queen Susu does not have the opportunity to experience it, so she feels even more rare.
She was like an ordinary girl, asking Jedi this and that. After traveling around, Jadi had seen many strange stories. She could just take a little to say to her, which was enough to fascinate her.
While listening to Jady's words, he sipped the iced porridge in small sips. A small bowl of iced porridge was quickly finished.
Jady waved, "Boss, get another bowl!"
"No, no, no, isn't there a bowl?" Su Su brought the bowl in front of Jady, took a sip with a smile, and urged: "You continue talking, what happened later?"
"Later? Haha, the vampire bat monster never dared to come to the places where humans live again. People often change their face when they hear the monster, but they don't know that the monster is even more afraid of people."
On the way, a team of soldiers from the Blood Rose Knights hurriedly passed by. Jady watched them go away and said, "According to my opinion, although the Duchy of Butani is currently facing difficulties, their recruitment system is still right. Both the North and the West are recruiting systems, and powerful troops have been established long ago. The Tagore Empire is actually the same.
