【Gaolan】Political Marriage

Lancelot is alone in his new house.

At that time, the life of the British people was poor.Even in the chalk city built by elves and dwarf craftsmen, the decoration and furniture styles are mainly Celtic styles that are simple, rough, and practical rather than interesting.For Lancelot, who grew up in the country of lakes with colorful foam and swaying water plants, everything he saw was very novel.He squatted on the ground, studied the whole piece of animal skin tanned carpet, the tables and chairs nailed up from logs, and the two simple and wild flying dragons perched on the cast iron bed frame with great interest, and ate them all. The dinner brought in by the maid--like the pursuit of pragmatism's aesthetic taste, is a rather generous portion of roast meat, bread and vegetable soup.

After finishing these things, he began to feel a little bored, but the noisy ceremony outside seemed to have no sign of ending at all.

The small commotion at the gate of Camelot City earlier today was suppressed by Gawain with his iron fist without hesitation.The fair-haired knight greeted him with a gentle smile instead, and thanked the nymph for her kindness.Seeing this situation, the elves who came to see off their relatives also turned back with confidence, leaving Lancelot in Camelot—both the Kelpies and the Undines were almost dried up on the road.

The sun knight's smile was brighter than the sun.Thinking of this, Lancelot became a little excited, and at the same time sighed deeply for the inexplicable anxiety of the Nimues before.Camelot's Prince Charming is obviously very good!Gawain walked side by side with him, and walked through the streets of Camelot together, receiving cheers from the crowd. Lancelot had never seen so many humans, so Gawain turned his head and smiled at him, beckoning him not to worry. .They went to pay homage to King Arthur, the Queen, and Gawain's mother. These noble people all had decent smiles on their faces, caring for him affectionately, and asking about Vivienne's recent situation-this made Lan, who ran out on his own initiative, Sloter is very embarrassed to answer, and there are too many people staying here!

Fortunately, Gao Wen once again saved him, took him to the room of the bride and groom, and told him that he didn't need to attend the celebration ceremony at night, and just waited for him to come back here.Lancelot weighed boredom and being surrounded by strangers, and decided to follow Gawain's words.Although he was mentally prepared for the fact that "there will be many people in the human world", he felt that it was better for him to adapt slowly.

To sum it up, Lancelot felt that Gawain was good in everything, his appearance, character, manners, gentleness and consideration, no matter what he was impeccable.It is a mystery why the Nimues lament and weep at the mention of marriage to the kingdom of men.Ladies just worry, Lancelot thought.The elves' blessings given to him by the Nimues before departure now seem to be unnecessary.

Thinking of this, Lancelot raised his head and glanced out the window. It was already dark, and a raging bonfire was lit on the huge square in front of the palace. Along with the shouts of people drinking and carnival, they cast dancing shadows on the chalk city wall.As night falls, the blessings of the elves are about to work again.Lancelot took a deep breath and let it out again. Although several days had passed on the road, he was still a little unaccustomed to the change of day and night.

There was a sound from the heavy carved door, Lancelot raised his head vigilantly, bounced it deftly like a cat, and hid behind the curtain.But the person who came in was not a maid, but Gao Wen.The knight may have drunk too much wine, his cheeks were flushed under the cover of his blond hair, and his green pupils became brighter and brighter.He saw Lancelot avoiding at a glance, Gawain frowned and closed the door behind him. "What are you doing, Lancelot?"

"Ah! Please...please wait a moment!...His Highness Gao Wen..."

Is it an illusion?Gao Wen felt that the young man's voice coming from behind the curtain seemed to become higher and more slender, he shook his head to shake the heavy alcohol out of his mind. "Just call me Gao Wen."

"Okay, okay... Wait a moment, Gao Wen..."

Lancelot's voice sounded flustered, Gawain walked to the bed, threw off the groom's heavy attire, sat down, buried his face in his palms and took a long breath.The smell of alcohol hit his face, those local princes were really vicious.How old is this elf boy?Converted to human age, can it be fifteen or sixteen years old?This male bride came so suddenly, the moment he announced his family name this morning, even Gao Wen almost thought it was a malicious humiliation.No, what matters is not what he thinks, but what the princes who were present and who were not present, after hearing about it, thought.No matter what's wrong with these elves, if Lancelot is here to marry him, then Gawain must marry him...

The chaotic thoughts were interrupted by rustling noises behind the curtain, Gawain raised his head and looked there suspiciously, wondering what the child was doing again.Not long after, the sound stopped. Lancelot seemed to hesitate for a moment, then slowly opened the curtain and walked out from behind.

The girl is wearing a snow-white dress...

Girl.

Gao Wen slowly raised his hand and rubbed his eyes.That's right, he was drunk, but it wasn't so bad that he couldn't see the people a few steps away.The girl with bright purple hair and pupils has slender limbs, long hair hanging down her shoulders, her breasts are too well developed for her age, a large piece of snow-white skin is exposed in the open neckline, and her thin waist is wrapped in a delicate corset In the gauze skirt, she looks more and more exquisite and embossed, slim and lovely.

Lancelot bit his lip slightly, and seemed to be looking at Gawain with some concern. His—her pretty face didn't change much, but it became a little more heroic after turning into a young girl.Gao Wen felt his heartbeat suddenly accelerated violently, crackling against his chest.He took a few breaths and wanted to speak, but his throat was scorched by alcohol. "You—" Gawain tried his best to squeeze out his voice. "What the hell is going on with you—"

"It's the blessing of the elves..." Lancelot lowered his head shyly. Before he could explain, he was interrupted by Gawain's raised voice. "Then why don't you appear like this during the day?!"

So Lancelot recounted to him what the Elves had bestowed.

According to Lancelot, after the letter of King Arthur's marriage proposal for Gawain was sent to the country in the lake by the bird, the elf girls called Nimue fell into lamentation.The elves are a race born from light and love. They do not produce, and do not need to reproduce. They play all day long, enjoying happiness and love without worry. When the time limit comes, they return to the void and become unconscious light. .It is unimaginable pain for them to marry a human being and endure dust, labor, quarrels and separation.

"I am the knight on the lake." The girl—Lancelot raised her head and said firmly.After becoming a woman, now she has to look up to Gao Wen. "It is the duty of a knight to protect girls from sorrow and pain! And although I was raised by Vivienne, I am also a human being by blood. Vivienne also said that one day I will return to the human world .In this case, why not let me marry humans instead of them, and I can also repay everyone for their upbringing."

"But what if that person bullies you?" After hearing Lancelot's proposal, an elf girl worriedly asked a very realistic question.

"...Hit him?" Lancelot was not sure.

No, we can't let you suffer either.Watching Lancelot grow up from a young age, he treated him like his own children and younger brothers. The elf girls who doted on Lancelot expressed their opposition. At this time, someone came up with a genius idea: we can use the elf to test whether Lancelot's fiancé (who has swiftly changed Gawain's pronoun from "man of Camelot" to "Lancelot's fiancé") is sincere to him.

"The blessing of the elf allows you to remain male for twelve hours each day and become female for the other twelve hours. You can give him the choice to endure your male form as his wife during the day, How about having fun in the boudoir at night? Or having a beautiful lady in front of people during the day, but facing a man at night.”

"But if he really loves you, he will definitely respect your will and let you make your own decisions. Humans are very stubborn creatures, and they will not follow the tide like elves and let the wind decide where we go. What they want, You decide your own destiny.”

Lancelot stopped here. The girl stared at the blond knight expectantly with burning eyes, as if waiting for his answer.

However, he didn't know whether it was because he drank too much wine or because his heart was beating uncontrollably. Facing this girl who had become his wife according to the British law, Gawain felt restless all over his body. It's almost unbearable.He laughed "Hmph", "And then?"

"...?"

Lancelot looked at him blankly.

"What if I don't really love you? What are you going to do? Hit me? Or run back to the country of the lake?"

Lancelot opened his lips, but didn't know how to answer.

"Do you know that if I show any anger, humiliation, or unwillingness to marry you during the day, Camelot will have no choice but to go to war with the Kingdom of the Lake?"

The girl's clear and flawless purple pupils became more and more confused. Gawain closed his eyes and shook his head. Why did he say this to an elf girl who didn't know much about the world?I really drank too much.No, Lancelot is a human being, a male, and Vivian's doting adopted son... A more important question suddenly surfaced, which shocked him a lot. "Lancelot!" Gawain suddenly grabbed the girl's wrist, "You have to answer me honestly, you marry... you came to Camelot, is it because Vivienne, the fairy of the lake, or you made it up yourself?" Claim, Vivian didn't know about it?!"
