Xia Zuoyi came to Prince Kaxiu holding the rice cake, and when he saw his face stiffly glanced at the fluffy ones, he couldn't help but reached out and touched the big head that the briquettes were leaning against, and said softly, "They won't hurt people at will, Do not worry."
The beast, which is almost as tall as a person, is too close.
The overwhelming sense of oppression kept coming, so close that Kaxiu could clearly see the tiny fluff in the beast's ears, the stretched beard, and the clear pupils that were casually watching...
Kaxiu licked his dry lips, he couldn't be relieved.
He can't help fantasizing now - if these big beasts suddenly pounce on him and bite his arms, waist, and even head...
The God of Creation is above! Just thinking about it makes your chest feel cold and your limbs weak.
Prince Kaxiu couldn't help looking at Lord Desinia standing in front of him again, and couldn't help but feel a subtle contrast in his heart.
- They are about the same age.
But the other party is already the master of a huge territory, not only respected, but also has absolute dominion.
The black and white cavalry that is very famous even in the empire, the large beasts who are docile by his side, the thorns chamber of commerce that can make countless money...
Prince Kaxiu watched the other party's slender and fair fingers slowly brush the golden lion's hair, while the dangerous looking beast turned his head affectionately and rubbed his palm...
The surrounding cavalry was silent and orderly, and the momentum was amazing...
Kaxiu retracted his eyes, and his heart couldn't help but feel sour.
He said: "Dear Lord Desinia, in view of the existence of these beasts of yours... pets, it seems that it is not suitable to live with other distinguished guests..."
"I want to make another arrangement for you."
"The Sheli Hall is very large, divided into east and west sides. Most of the distinguished guests are arranged to live in the west side. Lord Desinia might as well live in the east side alone..."
"What do you think?"
Xia Zoe nodded, he had no opinion.
Just as Prince Kaxiu was about to introduce Lord Desinia into the guild hall, two people suddenly walked out of the guild hall, one with silver hair and gray eyes, and the other with blond hair and green eyes.
It was Orville and Archibald who came first.
The appearance of the two caused a little commotion in the crowd around the Shire Hall.
Xia Zuoyi looked around subconsciously, her caramel-colored eyes swept through them without paying much attention, and her eyes stopped suddenly on a petite figure wearing a white fluffy cloak...
Huh? !
He wanted to take a closer look, but the petite figure was suddenly blocked by someone else, and Archibald's voice came from his ear.
"I also live in the east, and I will order my things to be moved there later."
Xia Zuoyi turned around and smiled at Archie.
Prince Kaxiu hesitated: "This... Your Royal Highness Prince Cavendish, do you want to consider another..."
Although Archibald Cavendish did not inherit the throne of Anas, he was crowned Prince by Queen Laurie.
The prince is independent of titles such as dukes and marquises, and is only awarded to members of the royal family.
"No need." Archibald said.
Before waiting for Prince Kaxiu to nod, Orville also said that he wanted to live in the east.
Xia Zoe frowned at Orville again.
Prince Kaxiu probably understands that the Desinia Territory, the Akiyayoli Territory, and the Anas Kingdom can form an alliance, and the relationship between the three is indeed extraordinary.
He nodded: "Okay, then I will order people to move all the things of the grand duke and prince to the east of the Shili Guild Hall. Now I will ask Lord Desinia to come with me..."
As a prince, Kaxiu was impeccable in terms of etiquette. He turned his body and stretched out his hand—
Xia Zoe led a group of furry people, Judit Walker and others into the Shire Hall, while the black and white cavalry was led to other places for placement by the other officials responsible for reception.
As the backs of Xia Zuoyi and others disappeared, the crowd watching the lively outside the Sheli Hall gradually dispersed.
Samuel's cheeks were flushed, she, she seemed to have looked at Lord Desinia just now!
The housekeeper whispered, "Miss Samuel, it's time for us to go back."
"Okay, okay..." Samuel murmured and nodded while looking at the door of the Cheri Hall.
After a while.
When there was no one else around, she turned and left with the housekeeper and the maid, Meili.
Sheli Guild Hall is splendid and magnificent, and the building area is indeed very extensive. There are two luxuriously decorated halls and a courtyard lawn with good scenery separated from the east and west.
Although it is winter, the green grass has turned yellow.
On the first night of staying in the Cheli Hall, Xia Zoe received an invitation letter from the Pope, inviting him to gather at the Holy Church.
Moreover, the people who came to the hall to invite them were Cardinal Maledez and Archbishop Paul, who had not seen him for a long time.
Xia Zuoyi: "Alright, let me bring brown sugar. His Holiness the Pope has never seen brown sugar as an adult."
The black panther happened to be standing beside Xia Zuoyi at that time, the end of its long tail was slightly hooked, and it swept towards the Lord Lord's ankle from time to time, and its golden eyes gave two glances lazily like charity.
Paul: "Of course you can, please."
Xia Zoe then boarded the Holy See carriage with only brown sugar and Judit.
…
The Holy Church of the Holy See is located in the center of the Imperial City, not too far from the Shire Hall. The carriage arrived after a while.
Although it was already night, there were still people coming and going outside the Holy Church, and there were people wearing priestly attire everywhere.
An old man stood at the door.
With his hands behind his back and wearing a red and white cardinal robe, passing clergy would stop and salute respectfully.
Paul walked closer, pressed his right hand on his left chest and bowed his head in a salute.
When Maledez saw him, his face darkened: "Demps, what are you doing here?!"
Demps smiled and said, "I understand your hard work."
"It's better for me to lead Lord Desinia to the residence of the Pope."
As he said, he smiled at Xia Zuoyi, who was looking at him curiously. Compared with Malediz's stern and serious face, his expression was very kind.
Maledez has never had a good look at Demps, who is also a cardinal.
He couldn't see that Demps was very curious about Lord Desinia, so he appeared to take him to see the Pope himself.
"Don't bother you." Malediz said stiffly.
"How can it be troublesome, Howard, you are too outspoken." Demps said.
Xia Zuoyi looked around and felt that the atmosphere was stuck.
He hesitated whether to speak, and if he didn't go in, would he have to stand outside the Holy Church until the middle of the night
Paul was obviously familiar with the point-to-point confrontation between the two cardinals, and calmly persuaded: "Two adults, why don't you send Lord Desinia to see His Holiness the Pope together."
"Procrastinate any longer... Your Majesty may send Golden Knights over here..."
A ladder is handed over, and you can take it as soon as you see it.
Demps laughed, "Let's do it, Howard."
Maledez: Huh.
Paul breathed a sigh of relief.
…
Xia Zoe was led by two cardinals through a courtyard full of blooming Berranka.
Because it belongs to the private residence of the Pope, some people are forbidden to enter, so Paul and Judit stayed outside and waited.
They passed the corridor lined with golden knight guards and came to a door when Demps knocked softly.
"Your Majesty, Lord Desinia has arrived."
Segalot's low and magnetic voice came from the room: "Come in."
Demps opened the door slowly.
He didn't go in first, but turned his body sideways to expose Xia Zoe in front of him - for a moment, Segalot and Xia Zoe looked at each other.
Segalot raised the corners of his mouth.
Xia Zoe bent her eyebrows.
He gently touched Brown Sugar's round ears with one hand and smiled, "Your Majesty, long time no see."
Demps and Malediz left after a while, leaving only Segalot, Shazoe, and a beautiful adult black panther in the room.
They were sitting on chairs near the window, with a small round table in the middle. The silvery-white moonlight poured through the window on the scented tea and pastries, like a beautiful layer of frosting.
After taking a turn in the house, Brown Sugar jumped onto the wide window sill, lay lazily on the overlapping front paws, and dangled its long tail from the window sill, swaying leisurely.
Segalot poured a cup of scented tea for Xia Zoe, and his eyes couldn't help falling on the thorn rose ruby jewelry he wore on his chest and left index finger.
It was a gift he gave a few years ago.
It is still worn by Xia Zoe - this recognition can't help but make people feel happy.
Segalot remembered the scene of seeing Xia Zoe in front of the door of the Cheri Guild Hall today in a carriage, and his golden eyes slowly fell on his face again, deep and focused.
Xia Zuoyi was stared at by the Pope, slightly uncomfortable, and the tips of his ears became a little hot.
He finally moved his body and reached out to touch his face, and asked suspiciously, "Is there something on my face?"
It looks strangely embarrassing.
Segalot said: "I just think about the time when I met you for the first time. Looking at it now, I feel a little emotional."
Young people are growing too fast.
But I haven't watched it for more than a year. Not only is my height taller, but even the contours of my face are more refined, and I no longer have the slightly rounded and lovely feeling before.
His Majesty the Pope sighed involuntarily, his gilded eyes narrowed slightly, as if recalling.
He stretched out his hand beside the chair to compare the height: "I saw you for the first time in the church in Cais. At that time, you were only so tall, with round cheeks and small and soft hands..."
And meat pits.
Xia Zuoyi pursed her lips: "Your Majesty, there has not been much change."
Except that the majesty of the body is heavier.
"Yeah, but I think I've changed." Segalot curled his lips.
Xia Zuoyi looked at him suspiciously, but didn't notice any change in appearance. He was still as handsome as ever, with slightly curly black long hair scattered behind him, showing a bit of laziness.
Probably due to falling asleep at night.
The Pope was wearing only a casual black robe with the neckline open to the collarbone. His skin was cold because it was too fair, and it was a little red because of the cold air that had penetrated in by the window...
Look... it's a little heart-pounding.
Xia Zuoyi pursed her lips, and looked away uncomfortably, but heard His Majesty the Pope speak suddenly.
Segalot said, "Little Zoe, sleep here tonight."
