Shengshuiyuan

Close your eyes and exhale lightly, breathing in the fresh air in the forest.The pale blond boy was stroking the soft fur of the white reindeer beside him, his eyes full of relaxation and contentment.

Just as the blond boy was feeling the beauty of the forest, two or three small and cute elves were dancing happily beside the boy. The light blond boy smiled lightly and stretched out his fingers to caress the elf in front of him. The elf was teased Playing with a hehe laugh.

The burly orc man behind him is like a child, chasing a naive little wild boar.

Not far away, a man with delicate face, deep blond hair and sharp ears approached slowly on a white horse, and there were several light blond boys.When approaching the man with dark blond hair, he got off his horse and respectfully faced the boy with blond hair and knelt down on one knee to salute

"Welcome Your Highness to come to the Elven Race again. I am a non-commissioned officer of the Elf Queen. I will take you to meet the Elf Queen."

As he spoke, the dark blond man got up on his horse and led the way first.

Rantier and the others slowly followed the dark blond sergeant through the forest to the spacious and tall elf palace.

Outside the pure white towering palace stands a statue of a tall elf woman with a height of hundreds of meters, with her hands raised and spread out, holding a white dove in her hand.Just as the people in Lantiere looked at the exquisite and beautiful statue with eyes full of admiration, a clear and gentle voice like a clear spring interrupted the thoughts of the people in Lantierre.

"How, what do you think of this statue, Your Highness?"

Retracting his thoughts, looking at the gentle woman in a white dress that fell to the floor, Lantiere pursed his lips and smiled lightly.

"I read the history books about the elves earlier, and I think this beautiful statue should be the first elf queen who was both soft and strong thousands of years ago, and the whole continent was amazed by it."

Before the elf queen could answer Lantiere's words, a pure blond figure happily jumped into Lantierre's arms and said happily:

"Brother Lantiere! I miss you so much! You haven't come to see me for so long!"

Seeing clearly the cute boy who threw himself into his arms very intimately, Lantiere stroked the hair of the blond sharp-eared boy in his arms and said

"You, you are over 300 years old, why do you still call me brother, I am much younger than you."

Rantiyer looked behind him at the very affectionate young man who suddenly threw himself into Rantiyer's arms.Lige puffed up her cheeks in great dissatisfaction and sulked.Li Muyan at the side smiled lightly and stroked Lige's hair to comfort him.

Regardless of age, the boy with blond hair and sharp ears squinted his eyes, revealing his teeth, and smiled brilliantly.

"It's my coming-of-age ceremony in two days, Brother Lantiere will come to my coming-of-age ceremony, right?"

Instead, Lantiyer looked at the elf queen who was doting on her son and said,

"Is the queen's letter asking us to attend the prince's coming-of-age ceremony?"

He led the people of Lantiyer to the hall of the elf palace, and looked at the same pure white table and tablecloth, and there were delicious snacks of different colors on the table.

The Elf Queen invited Lantiel and the others to sit down and said

"It happens to be my son Nick in a few days, a very important coming-of-age ceremony in his life. I just think of His Highness's help to the elves, and this child must want His Highness to see him look completely new at his coming-of-age ceremony. Let me write to Your Highness."

Looking at Lantiere, who was taking a sip of fruit tea, and eating a piece of snack, the blond boy named Nick said very excitedly

"Brother Lantier, did you know that the appearance of the elves will change from a teenager to an adult in an instant on the day of the coming-of-age ceremony! Do you want to see my handsome adult appearance?"

With that said, Nick stood up, puffed out his chest and raised his head proudly, his eyes full of expectation.

After dinner, Lantiere went to the balcony and looked at the sky full of stars, feeling unspeakably comfortable and open-minded.

The elf queen walking behind walked towards Lantier, exhaled softly and said

"Now I think of the elves who were in dire straits because of civil strife a few years ago. If it weren't for His Highness's help, maybe my people would still be in danger and wouldn't see tomorrow."

Lightly shrugging, Lantiere said with a light smile

"At that time, the elves came to the elves purely to prepare birthday gifts for the mother, and it was a coincidence to help the elves."

The elf queen lightly raised her hand and a glass of crystal clear wine appeared in her left hand, containing delicious and mellow fruit wine.Pass the cider to Lantieldao

"Tomorrow, you are going to the Marquis of the East. After you go to the Marquis of the East. Remember to go and see the red-bearded grandpa. He is very lonely by himself, and he misses you and Lan Nuo very much."

Taking a sip of the fruit wine handed over by the elf queen, Lantiere nodded lightly and said

"Okay, Lan Nuo and I will go to see Grandpa Redbeard."

In the early morning of the next day, when Lantiere and his party walked down the palace stairs, a girl with orange hair and bright eyes was already waiting in front of the stone statue and said,

"Hehe, unexpected! A few days ago, I received news that you will come to the elves to see the rumored Marquis of the East. So I came!"

Speaking of which, the orange-haired girl jumped up to Lantiere, held Lantiere's wrist intimately and said

"Let's go!"

Watching Lantiere and Rococo walking away, just as the blond Nick happily waved to Lantiere and his party, a white dove quietly flew down on the handrail beside the Elf Queen.

The elf queen untied the letter tied to the white pigeon's leg and unfolded it. Her originally happy mood suddenly became serious.Seeing the figures of Lantiyer and his party walking away, the Elf Queen not only held the letter tightly, but was full of worry.

In a quaint and luxurious room, a young man with pale blond hair about eleven or twelve years old and wearing a Chinese dress with sharp ears stared blankly as he clasped his legs tightly with both hands.Sitting in the corner of the room.

A knock on the door broke the silence of the room.But the boy sitting in the corner still didn't respond.Feeling that the teenager in the room would not be able to open the door, the person outside the door sighed softly, stretched out his palm with one hand, and urged the magic power on the doorknob, and the automatic rotation lock of the doorknob was opened.

The door was opened, and a boy with dark gray hair who was about the same age as the boy in the room not only frowned as he watched the boy huddled in the corner motionless.Approaching the blond boy, the dark gray-haired boy knelt down on one knee.Tightly hold the hand of the boy who still stares blankly

"It is a very regrettable and sad thing that your parents passed away in an accident when they went out to play. If you continue to be depressed like this, the whole family will be over. You would like to see the family that your father worked so hard to protect fall in your hands Is it? So you have to cheer up even for your parents."

The pale blond boy with dull eyes suddenly suddenly waved away the hand that held him with anger and said angrily,

"It's not that your father and mother are dead! Of course you won't be sad, I am a person of flesh and blood. Don't I even have the right to be sad when my parents are gone!"

Looking at the furious pale blond boy, the dark gray-haired boy sighed and said

"You are different from the children of ordinary people, as if you were born in an ordinary family. Both parents died suddenly, feel as sad as you want. But don't forget, you are the only child of your father in the whole family. If you don't cheer up now, there will be many People are eyeing this position covetously, and when the time comes, the whole family will shed blood, is this what you want to see?"

After listening to the dark gray-haired boy's grown-up words, the light-blonde boy choked with sadness and said:

"But...but I miss my parents..."

Looking at the sad and fragile boy, the dark gray-haired boy held the light-blond boy in his arms with pity, and comforted him softly.

"Master, this is the last time you cry. From now on, you must be strong in front of anyone and everything except me. You must not show any flaws. Do you understand?"

Looking at the dark gray-haired boy who wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, the light-blond boy bit his lip, firmly clenched his palm and said,

"Well, I will. I swear in the name of my ancestors that I will make the whole family more prosperous in my generation and become the number one among the four great families of the elves."

Turning to the pale blond boy, he looked at the boy who was kneeling in front of him on one knee, and asked the boy about his age

"Phini, I am the head of the family. Will you assist me as my retainer?"

Looking at the blond-haired boy who grew up with him in front of him, the dark-gray-haired boy put his hand on his left chest respectfully, and swore:

"I, Phoebe, would like to swear an oath in the name of the first elf queen, and I will dedicate my duty to you in this life. My little master!"

From then on, the sole heir of the big family began his hard and boring study life.The dark gray-haired boy named Fei Ni was always by his side.

On a bright afternoon, a blond girl in a fancy dress held a book in her hand, passed by the light blond boy, deliberately bumped the light blond boy's shoulder forcefully, knocking him to the ground.

Looking at the young man holding his sore shoulder, the blond girl wanted to leave with contempt in her eyes.But he was stopped by the dark gray-haired boy who was with the light-blond boy with a slightly angry expression.

"Shouldn't you apologize for knocking someone down?"

Turning around, looking at the dark gray-haired boy who helped the light-blond boy up, the girl said with disdain

"It's because he didn't have eyes to block my way. He fell down by himself. What does it have to do with me!"

Seeing the little master who not only didn't apologize, but actually insulted him, the dark gray-haired boy bit his lips and wanted to say something, the blonde girl looked the light-blond boy up and down, and suddenly raised his lips lightly, thinking about it.I couldn't help but say that before everyone could react, they stretched out their palms and slapped the pale blond boy.

"Oh, that's right! My bracelet is missing, tell me! Did you steal my crystal bracelet!"

Looking at the blond girl's overreaching behavior with eyes full of surprise, he turned to look at his little master's red and swollen cheeks after being slapped.Before the blond girl could react.The dark gray-haired boy clasped his palms tightly, and quickly slapped the blond girl back. He approached fiercely with his eyes full of eyes, and tightly held the girl's wrist.

"Even if you are a girl who bullies the little master, I will not let you go."

There were bursts of tingling pain from the clenched wrist, and the blond girl yelled

"Let go, it hurts, you hurt me! He stole my things and hit him!"

Seeing the usual calm behavior of the dark gray-haired boy, the pale blond boy held the dark gray-haired boy's wrist and said,

"Let go of Finny, you're hurting her."

He shook off the blonde girl's wrist with all his strength, and said to the girl who fell to the ground and held the sore wrist, five finger prints were evident on the wrist.

"It doesn't matter whether he stole it or not. As the owner of the family, he is the future Marquis of the East. It's not something you, a cousin, can bully! Remember, if I see you bullying the little master next time, I won't let you go!"

Standing up, the blond girl bit her lips angrily and said

"I don't care, as long as the crystal bracelet is not found one day, he will steal it!"

Before the blond girl turned to leave, the girl narrowed her eyes and said viciously

"I can't find the bracelet for a day, so I won't just let it go!"

Looking at the crying girl running away, the pale blond boy said softly with worried eyes

"It seems that the crystal bracelet is very important to her. Is it really okay if you don't help her get it back?"

Raising his hand to caress the top of the light blond boy's hair, the dark gray-haired boy said

"Little master, you see that you are always tolerant towards people and things, so even this cousin dared to bully you. So from now on, you must learn to be strong, and don't be too tolerant to everyone, and be kind to them. In this In a big family, there is no kinship at all. As long as you are negligent, they will take advantage of your weakness."

Biting his lips lightly, the blond boy looked at the dark gray-haired boy in front of him and said,

"Will that Finney always be by my side?"

Puckering his lips lightly, Finney said with a faint smile

"Of course, I will always be by your side when the little master becomes the impeccable head of the family and the future outstanding Marquis of the East."

Hearing the dark gray-haired boy's promise, the light-blond boy finally smiled happily.

A pale blond boy stepped down from the white reindeer he was riding, and looked at the castle-like building in front of him, which was hundreds of meters high, full of approval.

In front of the Marquis' mansion, a man with dark gray hair and pointed ears calmly faced the pale blond boy and the friend who came behind him, and saluted lightly.

"Welcome Your Highness. I am the personal guard of the Marquis of the East, Fei Ni. Your Highness, you and your friends, please follow me."

Handing the reins in his hand to the servants of the Marquis' mansion, he followed the guard who claimed to be Fei Ni into the mansion with strict decoration and management, and looked at the servants in the mansion doing their own things in an orderly manner.

The young guard leading the way suddenly spoke in a calm voice.

"Before your Highness comes down, you should have heard that our Marquis is very clean to the point of cleanliness. So when your Highness and your friends enter the Marquis' room later, please be sure to change into the clothes I have prepared for you, suitable for everyone's body proportions." Clothes of the elves."

Walking to the overpass, Fei Ni stopped, turned to face Lantierre and said humanely.

"It's a little presumptuous, I have to remind Your Highness in advance. Without the consent of the Marquis, Your Highness and your friends, please do not touch the Marquis's clothes and supplies. Otherwise, the Marquis will do something regardless of his status, and his subordinates dare not ensure."

Slightly surprised, Rantiyer said

"Okay, I remember."

Rococo next to Lantiere puffed up his cheeks, eyes full of dissatisfaction and said

"Why is it so troublesome like Miss Jiao..."

Lantiere gently held Rococo's wrist to comfort him, and Fei Ni felt that everything was safe and continued to lead the way.

Hearing Rococo's dissatisfaction, thinking of his most important Lord Marquis, a man with dark gray hair, not only his eyes were full of doting, but his lips curled up slightly.

A simple and solemn room in the middle of the Marquis's mansion was opened from the outside to the inside. The dark gray-haired man was full of respect, and said to the people in the room

"Master Marquis, His Highness and his friends have arrived."

Sitting in the room, a man with pale blond hair and pointed ears slightly raised his lips and said

"Please come in, Your Highness and his friends."

dark gray haired man leading the way

"Yes, Lord Marquis."

Looking at the pale blond man in the spacious and bright room, Lantiere seemed to see his own shadow in surprise. . . .

Rantier, who had recovered from his shock, not only pursed his lips with some interest in the next moment.
