The aristocratic young man who proposed to marry knew that the country with a foreign noble lady was very traditional, and this kind of incident had a great impact on her, and he proposed in public because he really had a good impression of this noble lady.

And when the noble young man proposed, the noble lady who had been crying seemed to be a little moved, and her complexion did improve a lot.

The few remaining young nobles were also reminded by the actions of this noble youth, and then two more young nobles stood up and said they would be responsible to the end.It wasn't that those few didn't want to take responsibility, they just had some scruples and didn't speak up rashly, but their frequent glances at the noble lady showed their concern.

As a bystander, Aila can more or less understand that their group of people is probably in a state of concubine's intention, but they have been interfered by others to make the situation worse, otherwise, they will continueAfter a while, she might still hear news of the marriages of several families.

It can only be said that the person who tampered with the lounge is too hateful, and don't know why he/she did it, or who prepared it for.

Most likely it was not Lucis. If he wanted to rest, he always left the multi-pillared hall and went back to his king's bedroom to rest. He never went to the lounge, and it was such a remote lounge, it was even more impossible for him to come here.

Eliminate this impossibility, and everything else becomes possible.

Ella gave up reasoning about the instigator of this incident, to see how Lucis would deal with it.

The current situation is that the condition of the noble lady who has been out of control has improved a lot because three young nobles proposed in public, and the instigator who caused this incident has not yet been found.

Therefore, Lucis did not punish these noble youths for the time being, but only asked them to invite their parents and the ambassadors of their respective missions over when they went back.

Considering that there are not many people who can really stay awake at this time, so the appointment is scheduled for tomorrow afternoon.

The time in between is for all of them to think about it calmly.

Of course, the best way to deal with this matter for these noble girls with special identities is to get married, but if someone is unwilling, it is impossible to force it, and marriage is often not something that the parties can decide on their own.Need to inform their parents and someone who can make the decision.

As for the person who arranged this lounge, as long as you check tonight's guests and people who have been here, you will always find it in the end.

Lucis asked everyone to go back to rest first, and wait until tomorrow to talk about it.

On the way back, Ella was still thinking about what happened tonight, and felt that things were not very good. Although it was a spare lounge and the location was remote, people who could do things in the palace felt that they knew something about the palace.But the scope of the accident is near the multi-pillared hall, which belongs to the office area of the ministers. As long as the nobles who are qualified to enter the palace can move around here, there are also many palace attendants who come and go on weekdays. It can be said that it is a place that is both remote and not remote.The place.

"Who do you think did it?"

"We'll find out when the investigation comes out." Lucis didn't want to discuss this matter: "It's already late, you should go back and rest."

It was only then that Ella noticed that Lucis was in the wrong mood, and turned to look at him. At this time, Lucis's face was cold, his brows were tightly frowned, and he was even more unhappy than when he was just woken up.

She asked with some concern: "Lucis, your complexion doesn't look very good, are you okay?"

Lucis pursed her lips: "I just remembered some unpleasant things."

Today's incident reminded him of some childhood experiences. When he heard what happened, he felt a disgusted and angry feeling. Even his stomach seemed to be churning, and that disgusting feeling could not be calmed down.

Of course, this uncomfortable state is not only due to those unpleasant childhood memories, but also due to the fact that he drank too much today and did not have a good rest.

Ella, who understood, looked at him even more worriedly: "Don't think about it if you are not happy."

Lucis responded, but it was clear from his appearance that he didn't really relax because of it.

The two quickly walked to the corridor in front of the dormitory. The end of this corridor leads to Ayla's dormitory and Lucis' king's dormitory. Lucis is going to send Ella back first, but Ayla pulls LuxiSi walked directly to the direction of his king's bedroom.

Lucis was surprised, thinking it was Ella who was uncomfortable seeing him, and planned to send him back.

Although he felt that he was not that vulnerable, Ella's concern really warmed his heart, and he didn't seem to be so uncomfortable anymore.

But until they returned to the king's bedroom, Ella didn't seem to have any intention of leaving.

She followed Lucis into the king's bedroom, and turned her head to tell Debbie, "Send all my toiletries and clothes here tomorrow."

Debbie was taken aback for a moment, then quickly nodded in response: "Okay, Your Highness."

Ella turned her head and saw Lucis looking at her in surprise, she said calmly, "Why, don't you want me to stay?"

The flame of the candle was romantic, enough to cover up the blush on Ella's face, and even make it hard to see that her ears were completely red at this time.Many people say that it takes courage to stay overnight.

Of course Lucis noticed her pretending to be calm, but he wouldn't point it out foolishly.

He made an inviting gesture, and Ella walked into his chambers like a queen.

Knowing that she was going to stay tonight, the valet asked someone to fetch the pillows and put them on the bed, and at the same time opened the curtain of the balcony to prevent the room from being too dark, and then extinguished the incense in the room to help sleep.The entire king's bedroom was adjusted to a more accustomed look. These details were carefully recorded by him when he was in Kaman, and these changes were also acquiesced by His Majesty.

Especially the incense that has a sleep-promoting effect. When the princess is around, His Majesty doesn't seem to need this kind of thing.

The actions of the attendants were silent and quick. After finishing their work, they retreated out without a sound and closed the door of the bedroom.

Ella unbuttoned the cloak on her body, covered her mouth with her hands and yawned delicately, took off her shoes skillfully, climbed onto the bed, and lay on the inside.

Lucis followed closely behind, put down the bed curtain by the way, got into the quilt, and hugged him in his arms. The smell of incense that hadn't dissipated was mixed with Ella's unique aroma, and slowly calmed down all his discomfort.

He lowered his head and kissed her pink lips, pretty nose tip, slightly trembling eyelids, smooth forehead, and finally the lovely hair top.What smells in the nostrils is the light and familiar fragrance of the silver hair.

"Sleep, my girl."

The princess, who was also used to and even attached to his breath, lay in his arms, murmured "good night" softly in a full sense of security, and soon couldn't resist the sleepiness and closed her eyes.

Not long after, Lucis was also lulled to sleep by the influx of drowsiness.

When woke up the next day, the room was already brightly lit.

There was no need to attend the court meeting today, and the servants did not disturb them, so the two slept until they woke up naturally.

Compared with them, there were many people who stayed up all night last night, but most of them went home because they caroused in the multi-pillared hall until dawn, and a small part because they knew about the way last night.

Manager Wadiye and his deputy also didn't have much chance to sleep. They were busy investigating yesterday's incident, and they couldn't come to report the results to Lucis until he got up.

But the progress is not without, at least they have checked out most of the people, and attributed the suspects to a small number of people.

When Ella and Lucis finished washing and were about to have brunch, Ella suddenly remembered something and asked the maid to go back to her bedroom to bring the tea set.

"Take the set in a wooden box sent by the steward of the pottery factory."

After finishing the order, Ella said to Lucis, "I ordered a new tea set from the pottery factory."

Lucis remembered the cake plates from last night's banquet and asked her, "Bone china?"

Ella nodded.

It was a set of European afternoon tea sets. The cups were in the style of coffee cups with trays and spoons, and everything from the teapot cups to the tray spoons was very gorgeous and exquisite. The surface was painted with blue and purple water lilies, with Sathya’s specialThe painting style is very exotic in Ella's opinion.

Add one-third of the milk and three teaspoons of honey to the brewed black tea and stir gently. There is a faint heat in the exquisite porcelain white cup. It is the taste that Lucis likes.I like milk tea very much, but her habit is half a cup of milk and a spoonful of sugar, which is too sweet for her.

In the past, Ella made more tea and sent out more than she kept, but since she had tea, Ella, who has developed the habit of afternoon tea in the fairy tale world, would brew a pot whenever she was free, or invite LucyTasting together or sharing interesting stories with the maids holding teacups, they have already finished drinking, and most of what Luxis got was given to the trusted ministers, and there is not much left. Now they are drinking LuxisSri Lanka had asked people to buy fresh tea from a tea factory built on land in Tibia, an island country.

Perhaps it was because the tea leaves were not the most suitable batch due to the wrong season, and the tea makers were not yet mature in their production techniques. The taste of this batch of tea leaves in Ella was similar to that of hers.Inferior products in tea are called rough tea in modern times.

But for Sathya people who have no tea tasting culture and are just getting in touch with this drink, and drink black tea milk tea with honey, it is undoubtedly a delicious and healthy drink.It's always good to drink a cup of refreshing drink first when you wake up.

Even after the appearance of tea, it has surpassed the status of wine in the hearts of many aristocratic women.

However, because the current output of tea is still small, not everyone can drink it even for the nobles, so even if the price is a bit outrageous in Ella's opinion, it is still sought after by people.

She heard that because the tea factory not only buys land to grow tea, but also buys tea from local people, and the price is high, the citizens of that island country called Tibia don’t even grow food much, and many peopleHe changed his career to become a tea farmer, and bought all his daily food needs from Sathya.

I don't know if this is a good thing for them, but Sathya is not suitable for planting tea trees. As long as the relationship between the two sides can be maintained, Tibia's side will always be able to sell tea, so there is no need to worry about the dayThey have no money to buy food, and there are not many people there, even the population of many pastors in Sathya, and their living standards are also very poor. Now that they start planting tea trees, maybe they will live better than before.

The same situation will also happen in Hamar, which is rich in hops. Even if it is not now, it will be when the beer market opens. After all, it is the only place in the entire African continent that produces hops. If they are not the same small country, and without the technology of brewing beer, he can definitely make a lot of money.

These are now cheaper in Sathya.

After drinking tea and having brunch, when Ella was thinking about whether to go back to deal with her pile of work, Wadiye came to see him again with his deputy.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness."

Lucis waved his hand to signal them to get up, and asked, "Have you found out?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, although there is no definite evidence yet, there are already signs."

The investigation is actually not in charge of Wadiah. There are still many things that need to be dealt with after the banquet last night. He can't even handle these things, so he can only hand over the matter to his deputy—if His Majesty hadn't said thisIt can't be made public, and it involves the interior of the palace. The investigation should have been handled by a special minister.

The deputy hadn't rested since last night. He looked very haggard, with bloodshot eyes, but he was very energetic. After a night and a morning of investigation, they had almost completed the investigation of this incident.

Although this result sounds a bit absurd.

Everyone knew that this incident was a conspiracy, and even like Lucis, they all suspected that a noble lady from a foreign country secretly did this in order to stay in Sathia.

But in fact, the conspiracy was a conspiracy, and it was not aimed at their group of people. The person who did this was not a noble lady from a foreign country as they had guessed, but a noble official from Sathya.

This official is not too old, only in his early thirties. His position is not too high but not low.He came and went in and out of the royal palace, and was very familiar with the area around the multi-column hall.

However, this aristocratic official had a good reputation in the past, and he looked very honest. No one thought that he would do such a thing as adding aphrodisiac spices to the incense burner. When they found him, they allSome wondered if their own investigation had made a mistake.

But the clerk in charge immediately turned pale when he saw them, letting them know that there was nothing wrong with his appearance.

They didn't even use torture to extract a confession, and the courageous official admitted his crime.

Lucis took the transcript recorded by his deputy and opened it to read, and Ella also came over.

It is clearly stated in the transcript that the clerk fell in love with a noble lady whose husband had passed away, but this noble lady always kept away from him, accepting expensive gifts from him but not responding to them.It was hanging him, and when he got angry for a while, he wanted to use some aphrodisiac incense for the noble lady, so that it would be a good thing.

The reason why he chose to be in the palace was because the noble lady didn't go to his appointment very often, and occasionally agreed to bring a few maids with her. There was no chance at all, and last night's banquet was of the highest standard.He could bring the maid into the palace but could only wait outside and could not enter the banquet, so he thought it was a good opportunity.

As for how he tampered with in the rest room, it was even simpler. The clerks were supposed to work in the palace on a daily basis. Every day when His Majesty held meetings with the ministers, he and the other clerks were responsible for the minutes of the meetings.He is very familiar with the surroundings of the multi-pillared hall, knowing that there will be many lounges in the palace during the banquet, but not all of the lounges will be used and not all of the lounges are guarded, so he specially found this oneIt is located in a relatively remote corner of the garden, and no one is guarding it, but if you take someone there, it will not cause too much suspicion. The lounge has hidden aphrodisiac incense in it beforehand, thinking that everyone else will wait until the banquet starts at night.I got busy, no one paid attention to this side, and then sneaked over to light the incense and candles, and then returned to the banquet hall to take the noble lady there.

And this noble lady is a person who likes to drink very much. She often gets drunk at banquets and is much more talkative than usual. As long as he finds the right opportunity to ask her to go for a walk in the garden, the other party will most likely agree., when the time comes, he will be able to take people directly to the prepared lounge.

Originally, he had already thought about all the procedures, but he didn't expect that His Majesty should be happy to stay in the banquet hall for a longer period of time last night. As a result, not only was the lady drunk, but he himself was also surrounded by several colleagues sitting next to him.I drank a lot of wine, and when I was able to get away, I took the noble lady to the lounge by the garden, and found that there were already people inside.

Although he had drunk a lot at that time, he was still not overly drunk. As soon as he found someone inside, he knew that his original arrangement would not come true, and other things might have happened, so he immediately took the noble lady to the place.Went elsewhere.

Ella frowned: "So the reason why he confessed so frankly is because he didn't know how big the incident was last night."

"Yes."

The deputy nodded. The clerk only knew that someone might have been hit by the incense he had prepared, but he didn't know who it was, and he didn't know that more than a dozen nobles were involved, and most of them were noble ladies from foreign countries.

If such a big incident breaks out, the head of the scribe's management is destined to be lost, and his family and family are more likely to be implicated. Even if Lucis does not punish them, it is impossible for those noble youths and noble ladies who suffered innocentlyLet them go.

Oh, I forgot to mention that the clerk himself has a wife and children, but Sathya's law stipulates that as long as it is not a serious crime such as treason, and the other party in the marriage relationship does not participate in the crime, then generally it will not be implicated.Theirs, so even though something like this happened, his wife can completely divorce him and take away most of the family's property and children to live a new life, and it can also prevent the children from being affected by having such a father.

Especially this time the incident was caused by the clerk's desire to cheat. As long as the original wife divorced, the nobles who had the accident would most likely not deal with the original wife who was also the victim. As for the widowI don't know if the noble lady will be angered.

The results of the investigation came out, and it was a good thing for the victims to be summoned in the afternoon. At least they knew who they should blame, and they didn't have to suspect that it was the lady among them who did it.

By the appointed time, all the nobles and ambassadors who had been notified had arrived.

This time the matter was very private, and no one wanted to make a big fuss, so Lucis called them all to the lounge next to his office where he usually worked, where he was usually asked to see him or be summoned by him, but he didn'tIt is a temporary waiting room prepared by the ministers who have no time to meet with them. At the same time, it is also occasionally used as a small meeting room, so the space of this room is not small, and it is still possible to accommodate twenty or thirty people.

It was only when Ella saw that the Kata ambassador was there that she knew that three of the ladies involved in the accident were from Kata.

Thinking about it, it probably has something to do with her. When the Kata mission brought her to Boiman, there were two noble ladies from Kata on the bed. Because they were ridiculed in public, one of the noble ladies alsoLifting Ella's veil caused her to be targeted by Lucis, which dragged down her subsequent escape, and because of this, she was indeed very angry at her behavior at that time.

And the two noble ladies who were sent back to their own country didn't hear very well-this is what the two little maids, Ona and Ali, who like to inquire about gossip, deliberately inquired because they knew what happened to her before-there areSuch an example happened not long ago. Of course, the noble ladies from Kata country do not want to go back more than the noble ladies from other countries.

In particular, most of them, like the two noble ladies, were sent out by their parents for benefits because they were not favored at home. When they were also sent back to the country, their future marriages would not be so good.

So it's better to find a suitable person in Sathya and marry yourself and stay here.

These noble ladies are also very good at selecting candidates. They choose young nobles who were born in great nobles, but these young nobles are not the first heirs, but the identities of the second son and third son. Their identitiesThose who are worthy of the noble daughters sent from various countries, but who cannot inherit the family, can get some property, but definitely not too much, so if they don't work hard enough in the future, they will become empty noble titles but nothingThe little nobles of the family property.

And when the noble girls were sent by various countries, in order to make King Sathya value them, each of them brought a large dowry - most of this dowry was bestowed on them by the king, no matter whether the marriage was successful or not, thisThe dowry will belong to the noble girls, and most of their parents sent people out because of these dowries.

Therefore, although these noble ladies have no foundation in Sathya, they still have the status of nobles and are very rich.Said to be the most suitable marriage partner.

So not only the young nobles liked these noble girls very much, but their parents didn't intend to stop them after they knew about it, especially after Lucis explained the ins and outs of the matter and confirmed that they were indeed innocent.
