【Leian】Prison bird

Camille didn't change his face: "The bishop is interested in my knight?"

Daniel's gaze sought the knight's eyes.An Mixiu lowered his eyelids to avoid his probing gaze, and saluted the two with a humble gesture.Margaret, who has a keen intuition, is also suspicious. This knight whose face cannot be seen clearly always gives her an indescribable sense of familiarity.

Just as the focused An Mixiu's brain was running at high speed, thinking about the countermeasures to escape, Camille spoke.He said something particularly meaningful in a delicate tone: "The roses bloom in the courtyard of the master's house, but you can still find them in the forest and by the stream. If you like, you may wish to go there to enjoy them." .”

As soon as the words fell, the other three showed different expressions to varying degrees. Camille took a step forward as if nothing had happened, symbolically standing in front of Anmi Xiushen, which seemed to be defending the territory.

Daniel looked around the two of them and said with a smile, "You misunderstood. Although flowers are beautiful, they can only be used to decorate churches and dedicate them to God. Personally, they have no special meaning. They bloom in the garden. To get a compliment is also a way for passers-by to express their gratitude to the owner for creating beautiful things.” After speaking, he turned sideways and made way.

Camille nodded and said you are polite, and took the lead to walk forward, followed by An Mixiu. Just as he was about to pass by, Margaret, who was standing aside with a fan, suddenly said: :"etc."

An Mixiu took a breath and stopped.

Miss Bai Qiangwei stared intently at his back, doubts still in her eyes, "Excuse me, may I ask your name?"

An Mixiu was silent, the knight's code prevented him from uttering any false words, he was struggling in his heart, and he was extremely clear-headed, the longer the time dragged on, the more suspicious it would become.

"Miss Margaret." Camille interjected, "From tomorrow onwards, you will swear to the Lord that you will always be by Brother Wang's side. I hope that Your Excellency will be careful in words and deeds before the wedding."

Speaking of the latter, the young Duke's eyes sharpened.That bit of aggression is undoubtedly condemning her fuss and fuss, and the annoyance after her personal belongings are coveted.Margaret had no intention of interfering with his private affairs. The essence of the royal family's insidiousness is the same, either for personal affection or human desire, and cannot be separated from the drive of interests and primitive animal nature. She has heard about it since she was a child, and also Not to mention how surprising it was.

Now is a special period, in order to avoid extra problems, it is meaningless to offend Camille, who is apparently related to Leishi.Anyway, in another day, everything will be settled.Margaret closed her folding fan and smiled gracefully: "Although this is just a misunderstanding, I still want to thank you for your advice. Goodbye, Your Excellency the Duke."

Camille nodded at her expressionlessly, and led the people away.

Margaret stood beside Daniel, watched them go, and said with emotion: "Is the Lancaster family planning to destroy themselves?" Those who join the ranks of opponents are all addicted to forbidden love. According to this form, even if there is no horizontal intervention from Yorkshire, the Lancaster family will not be prosperous for long.

Daniel turned his head to look at her: "Isn't this a good thing for York?"

"Indeed—" Margaret lifted the hem of her skirt, and walked towards the direction where Amish and Camille came. "My lord bishop, it's time to visit our poor majesty."

Since Leishi "fell ill", Daniel, a clergyman, would go into the palace every day to pray for His Majesty and pray for God's blessing.Going with him is also the new king's fiancée.She fell in love with the new king at first sight, and even now that the other party is seriously ill, she still persists, takes good care of him, and takes care of daily chores for him, with the hardworking attitude of the master of the palace.

People love her and think she is a rare and happy person in a political marriage.

The knight left behind by Camille held his breath under the bed and listened nervously to the conversation coming from above.The sense of crisis that has been on the line of life and death for many years tells him that he is being involved in a dark secret.He recognized the voice of the archbishop in red and the king's fiancée. The Majesty he knew was talking to the two of them in an extremely weak tone, as if he would fall into a coma in the next second.

And not long after that, His Majesty did not make a sound.The knight couldn't help feeling uneasy. He hid in the narrow space, the curtains hanging down to the log floor, floating indistinctly, unable to see the outside scene clearly.Camille's entrustment before his departure was to protect His Majesty the king. Just when he was hesitating whether to go out to find out the situation, a female voice suddenly sounded: "Is Your Majesty 'sleeping'?"

After a while of fabric rubbing, the bishop said indifferently: "Yes." He then said: "Bring Your Majesty's seal, we need to write a letter to the city's garrison."

The female voice said: "Now the cavalry is taken over by Camille. His Majesty just handed over the command to him a few days ago. I'm afraid..."

"It's okay, I'll teach you how to choose words and make sentences."

"It seems that my lord has a plan in mind."

The male voice seemed to laugh, and the two said a few more insignificant words, and then they walked away with the sound of footsteps.

The knight waited for a while, then crawled out from under the bed to check the situation on the bed.At this time, the young king was sleeping peacefully, his face looked morbidly tired.Just as the knight was about to reach out to check his breath, Lei Shi who suddenly opened his eyes pinched his fingers and snapped them off. His eyes were piercing and sharp, as if the weakness just now was just an illusion.

The other party let go of his hand when he found out that it was him, and the sharp halo in his eyes also subsided. The knight was relieved, and raised his hand to salute Leishi respectfully.He ignored the pain coming from his finger bones, and focused all his attention on the conversation just now.

From the conversation between Bishop Daniel and His Majesty's fiancée, it is not difficult to see that they not only stole private seals, but also forged documents. These two points alone are felony enough to be hanged.And the goal that is willing to spend a lot of time and even take such a big risk to achieve it will only be bigger.

The more the knight thought about it, the more horrified he became, and the cold sweat dripped down. He said cautiously, "Your Majesty, should I inform His Highness Camille right now?"

Lei Shi on the bed snorted and laughed: "He knows it well."

Knight: "Then...?"

Lei Shi pointed to the bed, and said slowly: "Stay here, I have something for you to do tonight."

Upon seeing this, the knight immediately obediently lay back under the bed and waited.This was the first time he faced the monarch so closely, and it was also the first time he felt that kind of indescribable pressure.The other party seems to know everything, and calmly faces the malice and conspiracy from others, and responds to the ever-changing with a posture of control.

Perhaps this is the majesty that a king should have.He thought absently that his worries might not be anything to fear in His Majesty's eyes.

On the outskirts of Wangcheng.

It was morning, and as the sky was getting brighter, wisps of golden light fell through the lush branches and leaves into the forest, staying on the young man.Mottled and swaying lights and shadows floated, kissing the top of his head and the ends of his hair. The young man leaned against the rough tree trunk, holding a sword and closing his eyes to rest.The light froze on his cheeks, and he was nostalgic and refused to leave.Time seemed to stand still.

The rapid sound of horseshoes suddenly broke the quiet atmosphere, coming from north to south.On the horizon in the distance, a blurry figure slowly emerged. He was getting closer and clearer, and finally when he was about to approach him, the young man opened his eyes.

He walked to the middle of the road, blocking the way of those who came, calmly looked straight at the light cavalry who was in a panic because of his appearance, and put his hand on the hilt of his sword.

The other party obviously realized that his intentions were not good, and immediately stopped the meaningless abuse, and no longer tightened the rein, drew his sword and rushed towards the young man with the momentum of the horse.The latter drew his sword out of its sheath the moment he got close to him, and a cold light disappeared in an instant, sinking into the horse's body, and immediately, the injured horse raised its front hooves and neighed mournfully.

The young man sideways dodged the sharp sword that was stabbing at him, quickly grabbed the horsewhip in the cavalry's hand, and at the same time took a big step forward with his right foot, turned around and exerted force with his arm, using the strength of his waist to yank the man violently. fell to the ground.Before the writhing and screaming cavalry got up, he grabbed the end of the whip to control the distance between the two, took a few steps forward, and wiped the cavalry's neck neatly.

The young man bent over the person and groped for a while, took out a letter from the bag at his waist, looked at the sealing seal, and hid it in the compartment of his armor.

The frightened war horse ran away for a long time, and the young man didn't care anymore. He wiped the blood on the sword with the opponent's clothes, and then moved the man to the side of the prepared earth pit to bury the matter.After cooking, he hid behind a tree and stood still as he did not long ago.

Dots of scarlet smeared on the thick bandage, and the accompanying pain reminded the young man that his wound had opened due to the violent activity just now.

The young man looked at his palm, his eyes softened.He remembered what Camille had said before parting.

"Don't die." His Excellency the Duke, who had finished talking about the plan with him in the carriage, paused for a moment, and said suddenly.

He who was still immersed in the previous topic didn't react at first.

Camille looked into his puzzled eyes, and said again, "For the sake of Brother Wang."

The young man was taken aback, then nodded firmly, and smiled shyly: "Please rest assured, I will not die."

Only then did the little duke relax as if he was relieved, and leaned against the back of the chair and said to him, "Remember what you said."

Time passed silently, and it was noon in a blink of an eye.

Another horse came galloping from the direction of the king's city. The young man poked his head out quietly and watched him go northward, disappearing into the depths of the woods and at the end of the horizon.

He looked away, raised his head for one last look at the radiant sun, and turned away from it.

Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.
