The Knight's Journey to the Empire

In the spacious and bright study, Connino knelt on the ground, lowered his head, and said solemnly:

In the spacious and bright study, Connino knelt on his knees, his back straight, his expression calm, and his words clear!

Connino reported everything he knew about the entire mission from beginning to end, no matter how big or small!

For example, Adric's arrogant attitude when he first arrived at Baron Soren's mansion caused Baron Soren's anger;

Zahavier had urged him to embezzle the 300,000 gold coins from the bounty, and he had agreed to it because he was greedy and couldn't help himself;

The three of them were too arrogant and lax, and were treated to good food and drink for several days at Baron Soran's mansion;

Baron Soren refused to cooperate with the Second Prince and chose to cooperate with Countess Katis. He has sold the sea salt refining and purification process to Countess Katis.

The three of them were subdued by Sir Colbert, who was a high-ranking knight, and then forcibly imprisoned for many days;

Baron Soren wrote a letter of exculpation for his great crime and released himself to deliver the message for him;

Two letters from Baron Soren to His Royal Highness Prince Leo II, and the box of "floral soap";

Baron Soren hopes to cooperate with Prince Leo II on the production process of floral soap!

and many more……

From the beginning to the end, Connino told everything without any reservation, without any concealment, denial or sophistry!

Because now he is mentally prepared to face death calmly!

Therefore, Connino's tone of voice at this time was extremely sincere and straightforward, without any pleading or hope for mercy!

After all, in Connino's eyes, the pressure brought by His Royal Highness Prince Leo II in this situation was so strong that it was suffocating!

Moreover, His Royal Highness Prince Leo II has great power and influence, so no matter how early or late it is, no matter how much information he has, perhaps he can learn the truth of the matter through other channels!

Also, who knows if Baron Soran also sent other people back to tip off?

Didn't Baron Soran originally belong to His Royal Highness Prince Leo?

Connino didn't know all this, so instead of taking the risk of hiding it, it would be wiser to tell it all!

And by doing so, not only can one demonstrate one's sincerity and show that one is remorseful;

More importantly, if I can escape this disaster by luck, I won’t have to live in fear all day long in the future!

His Royal Highness Prince Leo II sat high on a precious chair, listening quietly to Connino's statement...

His expression remained calm the whole time, and no one could tell whether he was happy or angry!

But it was precisely because of this that Connino became even more frightened!

After Connino finished speaking, he kowtowed heavily to the ground as if relieved of a heavy burden, and begged: "Your Highness, please punish me!"

"I only hope that Your Highness will spare my family for the sake of my loyalty to you in the past!"

Connino's head was flat on the ground and he didn't dare to lift it up!

"So, based on what you said, it is precisely because of your arrogance, your arrogant attitude, and your acts of corruption that ultimately led to the disastrous failure of this mission!"

His Royal Highness Prince Leo II frowned tightly, staring straight at the trembling Connino in front of him, and questioned in a stern and somewhat harsh tone.

"Your Highness, I dare not offend you!" Connino explained first, then said: "But I think that Baron Soren and Countess Katis must have cooperated with each other a long time ago, so they chose to reject us without hesitation!"

Prince Leo II ignored Connino who was kneeling, and turned to ask Odyssey Wiggins who was standing on the side: "What do you think about this matter?"

Odyssey Wiggins pondered for a moment before responding, "Your Highness, in my opinion, what Connino said is true!"

"That Baron Soran must have had dealings with Countess Katis for a long time."

"As for the technique of refining and purifying sea salt!" He paused, then analyzed, "The first place where snowflake sea salt was sold was in the city of Ganise, owned by Countess Katis!"

"So given Countess Katis's current situation and needs, she should have known it earlier and in more detail. Perhaps she has already discussed cooperation matters with Baron Soren before us."

"And Zahavier and others' many actions in going to Ganise County now seem to me to be a driving force that has accelerated the establishment of their cooperative relationship."

Upon hearing this, His Royal Highness Prince Leo nodded in agreement!

Although he didn't have much contact with Soran, he still had a deep impression of this lucky little man!

In the eyes of His Royal Highness Prince Leo II, these little people are very good at judging the situation and weighing the pros and cons!

Being cautious and changing with the wind is their usual tactic!

So if he didn't have sufficient backing or a way out, how could he dare to so decisively reject the olive branch extended by His Royal Highness the Second Prince?

"Didn't Baron Soran send me two letters in reply, as well as a 'floral soap'? Where is it?" His Royal Highness Prince Leo II continued to ask.

"Your Highness, here they are!" Odyssey Wiggins took out two letters from his arms and handed over the wooden box in his hand.

The envelope was still sealed and Odyssey Wiggins had never opened it!

His Royal Highness Prince Leo II opened it directly and started reading!

The contents of the two letters were similar to what Connino said: one was to absolve him of his guilt; the other was from Baron Sauron, who was planning to renegotiate cooperation with the Second Prince!

Of course, it is also possible that Connino has read the contents of the letter!

However, Connino also explained this situation!

But regarding this, His Royal Highness Prince Leo II no longer wants to delve into it any further!

What to do with Conino? Just leave it to Odyssey Wiggins!

You can't always make all the decisions by yourself!

So he picked up the beautifully crafted wooden box, opened it, took out a piece of "floral soap" and began to observe it!

His Royal Highness Prince Leo II put the soap close to his nose and sniffed it again!

Ah!

It is indeed very fragrant!

I just don’t know what the effect will be!

You have to use it to know!

If the effect is really as Baron Soran said, this "floral soap" can be a good business that can make a lot of money!

And if done properly, the process of making this floral soap may be more profitable than the process of refining and purifying sea salt!

Because it is foreseeable that once this kind of floral soap appears on the market, it will definitely be a luxury item that only aristocrats or wealthy people can afford!

And it is a consumable luxury!

So, how can this not make money?

Chapter 255 The Prince Takes a Bath

November 4877, 11 in the Knight Continent calendar.

At night, in order to be able to experience the special effects of "floral soap" more directly.

His Royal Highness Prince Leo II specifically instructed his servants to carefully boil a large bucket of steaming hot water!

Because if what Baron Soren said in the letter is true, then His Royal Highness Prince Leo II plans to use this fragrant floral soap to experience a comfortable and relaxing hot bath!

After all, taking a bath with such a wonderful floral soap is simply the ultimate enjoyment!

……

Normally, whenever His Royal Highness Prince Leo II takes a bath, there is always a caring and loyal valet serving him.

However, today, he deliberately drove all these servants out!

So at this moment, only His Royal Highness Prince Leo II was left alone in the bathroom.

I saw His Royal Highness Prince Leo II, completely naked, walking out of the small compartment where clothes were kept!

One has to admit that the Second Prince's physique is enviable enough!

Um~

Whether it's above or below!

And in the fair and delicate palm of His Royal Highness Prince Leo II, firmly holding was an exquisitely crafted wooden box!

And the items in this wooden box are the three pieces of floral soaps with charming fragrance that Soran gave him!

A large bucket of clear and pure hot water is quietly placed in the center of the bathroom. Hot steam continues to rise and spread, making it look like a fairyland!

Prince Leo II stretched out his hand to gently test the water temperature and couldn't help but smile with satisfaction - because this temperature was just right!

He immediately stopped hesitating, gently opened the wooden box, and took out one of the floral soaps.

……

This floral soap is in the shape of a rectangular block, but the edges and corners are rounded!

And its color is light green, elegant and fresh, just like a new green leaf.

The reason why this floral soap has such a unique color is that when Soren was making it, he ingeniously added certain green plant extracts into the soap for dyeing and fragrance!

Otherwise, the soap made with wood ash as raw material will only be a dull gray in color!

Moreover, on the upper surface of the floral soap, Soran carefully used a mold to print the word "floral fragrance", and the font is clear, beautiful, neat and standardized!

All of this makes this floral soap look like a fine product!

……

According to the instructions in Soran's letter, in order to use this floral soap, you must first wet it with water, and then rub your hands to produce a lot of foam!

So His Royal Highness Prince Leo II stretched out his right hand, carefully scooped up a handful of hot water, and gently sprinkled it on the floral soap!

However, just as he was about to concentrate on rubbing it hard, an inadvertent negligence caused the floral soap, which had already become extremely silky, to suddenly slip from his hands and fall straight to the ground!

The floor of this bathroom is paved with smooth marble.

Now, because there is a bucket of hot water, a thin layer of mist has attached to its surface!

So in this way, this piece of floral soap can drift along the ground and move unimpeded to the wall in the other corner of the bathroom!

……

Will floral soap become slippery when it comes into contact with water?

Baron Soran never said that!

So His Royal Highness Prince Leo II had no choice but to run over and pick it up himself!

Swinging it around!

Fortunately, there was no one else in this bathroom!

After the previous lesson, His Royal Highness Prince Leo II has also become a little cautious!

He no longer rubbed the floral soap with force, but kneaded and kneaded it gently and gently!

Soon, this floral soap quickly produced a layer of silky, smooth and delicate foam, giving people a dreamy feeling of being in the clouds.

At the same time, a light and fresh fragrance quietly wafts out and gradually fills the entire bathroom, making people feel relaxed and happy.

Then, His Royal Highness Prince Leo II evenly applied the delicate foam to every inch of his skin.

Then he began to gently rub it back and forth with his hands, feeling the pleasant touch and fragrance.

The smooth, white skin is as silky and firm as before. The delicate and soft soap foam caresses every inch of the skin, bringing an unprecedented feeling of comfort.

His Royal Highness Prince Leo II was immersed in it, and gradually developed an incomparable wonderful experience.

This made him quite dissatisfied with the ordinary foam powder he had used before!

Not only do these foam powders melt in water, but they also produce very little foam and are completely ineffective in cleaning the greasiness on the body's surface!

However, the soap in front of you with its charming floral scent is quite different!

Not only does it have a rich and pleasant fragrance, but it is also intimate and natural when in contact with the skin, without any discomfort!

……

At this moment, His Royal Highness Prince Leo II felt that all the pores on his body had opened up!

They seem to be breathing in the fresh air to their heart's content!

And the dirt hidden in the pores is also discharged from the body!

Although His Royal Highness Prince Leo II does not know what "pores" are now, he can truly feel the incomparable freshness and pleasure.

After doing this for more than ten minutes, His Royal Highness Prince Leo II carefully rubbed almost every inch of skin on his body!

Although the soap bubbles are still pure white, nothing has changed!

But at this moment, His Royal Highness Prince Leo II felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders, and he felt extremely relaxed!

……

Then, he stepped into the steaming bucket, letting the clear, warm water wash over his body and wash away the soap bubbles remaining on his surface!

After all the bubbles were washed away, Prince Leo II was surprised to find:

Her originally fair skin suddenly became even whiter, tenderer and more delicate, and also gained a sense of firmness and moisture!

Suddenly, His Royal Highness Prince Leo II's eyes lit up!

He thought to himself, “This floral soap might be able to solve my mother’s problem and satisfy her!”

……

Dear readers, I am making up for the chapter I owed you yesterday today!
