Passing through the layers of fortified guards, Ruhr sighed softly.
Although it is the other courtyard of the royal family, it is the Central Army who is taking over the defense here.
Ruhl looked at the defenses and the orderliness, and he was slightly relieved.
In any case, Adrick followed his advice.
Living in this royal courtyard is the real queen of the empire today, Daphne, the young daughter of Duke Minas.
Ever since the grandson of Duke Minas, Master David, was assassinated in the imperial capital, Adric and Ruhl were devastated by the emperor's crazy behavior, and just before Ruernan went to see Duke Minas, they had already suggested to him. Derek: This queen must be well protected!
God knows what drastic actions this emperor, who is already showing signs of going mad, will make - the assassination of little David has made the situation extremely difficult. If the rabbit emperor does something again, he will hit the queen. Daphne is the only daughter of the Duke of Minas. If she has any problems, I am afraid that war is imminent!
In any case, protect the safety of the queen.
After Ruhl came back from the south to meet Adric, he was still worried after all. He came here for a walk in person, and saw that this other courtyard was safe, and his heart was slightly relieved.
He didn't mean to ask to see the queen, he just inspected the defense a little and planned to leave. But just before he was about to leave, a court maid appeared in the other courtyard, bringing the queen's meaning.
"The queen... summoned me?"
Ruhl was stunned.
The court lady in front of him must be the confidant left by the Minas family to the queen.
Although the other courtyard was taken over by the Central Army, it still maintained enough respect for the queen. Adrick strictly ordered that the guards must not set foot in the other courtyard for half a step.
In the other courtyard, most of the inner servants brought from the original palace have been driven away, and the people who are left behind are also the direct descendants of the Minas family recognized by the queen.
A separate courtyard, the interior is taken care of by the Queen's own caring people, and the outside is handed over to the Central Army.
Ruhr is also curious: what is the purpose of the queen when she wants to see herself
Right now, this queen has lost any role in the imperial capital, and is purely a symbolic display. With her there, at least it was the last fig leaf for the Minas family and the royal family to completely turn their faces.
"What does this woman... want to do?"
Ruhl sighed in his heart, but he couldn't refuse the queen's summons, so he had to bite the bullet and agree.
Fatty did not bring any guards, so he had to enter the courtyard alone.
The other courtyard of the royal family is built naturally and magnificently. It is a building full of classical artistic conception. There are some master-level sculpture works in the hall, and the murals on the walls are all by famous artists.
It's just that this huge courtyard can't help but look a little deserted.
The queen only left dozens of servants, so in such a large courtyard, dozens of people naturally appear extremely deserted.
When Ruhl walked into the hall, there was no one in sight, only the court lady in front led the way, led him through the corridor, walked through a few doors, and came to the back of the courtyard.
When passing through a courtyard wall, the court maid looked back at Ruhl and hesitated a little.
Why didn't Ruhl know what the other party meant? After directly taking off the saber she was carrying, the maid was relieved, and a smile appeared on her face: "It is said that General Ruhr is smart, and sure enough."
Ruhl smiled: "If a rude person like me has the opportunity to visit the queen, I'm afraid that my arrogance will make the queen unhappy—this sister, I don't know that the queen called me for..."
Fatty is really thick-skinned, and this maid looks at most in her early twenties. It would be too old for Fatty to be a niece. This guy actually called her sister.
The maid really blushed and said in a low voice: "How can we, the servants, dare to guess what the noble mean. But..."
She looked at Luer, hesitated for a moment, and then whispered: "I heard that the general has a good relationship with the one from the north."
These words seem to be answering the wrong question, but what a shrewd person Fatty is, his heart suddenly moved.
Then the two stopped talking, and the fat man handed the saber to the maid. Under her guidance, he walked in through the gate of the courtyard, but the maid backed away and stopped following.
Ruhl walked through the inner courtyard here, but saw the tulips blooming in the courtyard. These flowers seemed to be newly planted. The courtyard was full of spring and looked quite climatic.
Ruhl couldn't help but guessed a few more points in his heart, and couldn't help but cursed secretly in his heart.
There is a door at the end of the yard, where the queen is naturally located. Ruhl stood outside the door, cleared his throat, and said loudly: "Ruhl's audience!"
There was silence for a while, and then a faint voice came: "General, please come in."
The voice fell, the door opened, and two middle-aged court ladies came out, looking at Fatty indifferently.
Fatty winked, and at a glance, he could see that although these two women were wearing ordinary court maids' costumes, they walked with an air of air, and they were clearly skilled female warriors.
Ruhl strode into the door, and the two maids immediately closed the door.
The room here is not big, but there is a curtain in front of it. Behind the curtain, a slender figure can be seen sitting in the middle. The air is full of fragrant aroma, and I don't know what perfume it is spraying.
Luer only glanced at it, and didn't dare to look at it any more. He lowered his head and said, "Luer was ordered to meet... I don't know that the queen summoned the last general..."
"General Luer, you're welcome." The queen's voice was soft, as if with a hint of sadness and melancholy, softly said: "The general is a hero of the empire, I'm just a useless woman, so don't be too polite."
"Your words really disturb me." Ruhl sighed.
After being silent for a while, Daphne inside said in a low voice, "The general went to the south to come back... I think I have seen my father, I don't know his old man..."
Luer pondered for a while, pondered his words, and said cautiously: "The Duke is in good spirits and seems to be in good health. If you want to come to the south, the climate is pleasant, and the Duke is old and strong. You don't have to worry about it, Queen."
Daphne listened, his tone seemed to be very calm, and he could not hear any emotional fluctuations, just a soft "oh".
After being silent for a while, Daphne spoke softly again: "General Ruhr, in fact, you are also from my Minas family. When I was young, I remember that you hugged me. Over the years, everyone is born and raised. It's been divided a lot, and now you talk to me so carefully."
"There is a difference between honor and inferiority." Luer smiled bitterly: "You are the queen of the empire, the mother of a country, Luer is just an old man in the army, and he dare not make trouble in front of the queen."
"Ah..." Daphne sighed softly: "Uncle Ruhr, you're making me embarrassed when you talk like that."
Ruhl couldn't help sweating on his forehead.
uncle
This queen calls me uncle... This name is too dare to be called! The dignified queen called Lao Tzu uncle, I was afraid that something embarrassing would ask Lao Tzu...
He took a deep breath and knelt down on one knee: "Your Majesty the Queen, please don't mention this title again! The last will be terrified!"
"You don't have to be so frightened." Daphne's tone seemed to be much calmer, and through a curtain, the voice slowly came out: "My father is far in the south, I naturally know what he did, hey... my brother He also left the imperial capital and led his troops. What the emperor did to David before is no longer a secret. Right now, I am alone in the imperial capital. When I look around, the only person I can trust is you, so…”
"You're too serious!" Ruhl had no choice but to smile bitterly: "Then... What's the problem with you? Don't make it difficult for the boss, the boss is so rude, the brain is not enough, you Might as well say it directly, in the end, I will do my best."
Daphne gave a soft "ah" from behind the curtain, as if he didn't expect Ruhl to go straight in. As if hesitating for a moment, Daphne carefully said a word.
"General Ruhr, can I trust you?"
Ruhr thought: If you don't believe me, you don't need to call me in at all.
Thinking of this, he knew that he must not be able to dodge, so he simply said: "Your servant is already in front of you. Whether your servant is worthy of your trust or not is just in your mind. If you have any orders, your servant will just rub the ground. ."
"..." Daphne was silent for a while, and finally said quietly, "I hope so."
After speaking, the figure behind the curtain seemed to stand up and raised his hand slightly: "Put the curtain away... Everyone else goes out. General Ruhr and I have something to talk about."
The two court ladies responded in a low voice, and rolled up the curtain little by little. Ruhl just knelt there on one knee, bowing his head and saying nothing, until the two waitresses walked away and left the door, and the door behind him was closed. …
"General Ruhr, please get up."
With the light footsteps, Ruhl heard that Daphne seemed to have taken a few steps in front of him, and Ruhl took a deep breath: "Then... I am offended."
After speaking, Ruhl stood up and raised his head, but his eyes turned to the moment of Daphne...
The fat man has changed color! !
Fat man is sweating! !
The fat man is crazy! !
Then the fat man almost jumped up! !
The queen in front of her, Daphne, had a face as beautiful as ever, and her charming face was full of worry, but it made her look even more attractive.
The snow-like long coat made her more delicate, her face was pale, and there was a deep sadness in her brows.
the most important is…
Although the white long coat is very loose, but... it still can't hide a fact!
This beautiful queen has a slightly bulging belly!
It is clear that she has been pregnant for quite some time! !
(Damn! This is going to pit me!!)
Ruhl screamed in his heart! !
The queen is pregnant! !
The queen is fucking pregnant! !
That Emperor is a Rabbit... So it's definitely not that Rabbit's species!
The queen is pregnant! She asked Lao Tzu to meet such an important matter, but she let Lao Tzu know such an important secret? !
But... this kind of secret, if you get it wrong, it will kill people! ! !
Ruhl was shocked, and then the fat man lost his mind, subconsciously raised his hand and pointed to the queen's lower abdomen, and the words blurted out.
"Fuck! Who did this?!"
