fairy tale in fairy tale

The Marquis shook his head from the trance, brushed his messy hair, straightened his tattered clothes, carefully moved to the side of the devil, and asked softly, "Yes... did you save me?"

"Shut up!" It was still the clear voice, the words were more concise, and the tone was almost indifferent, but it fell into the ears of the Marquis, and it was extremely reassuring, like a ship that had just sailed out of a hurricane and finally arrived. safe haven.

He was born in a noble family and inherited his father's title. Originally, he gave birth to a strong determination to grow the Orlandore family, but it inevitably declined under the drag of many ruined children.

However, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. After all, the Marquis is a Marquis. He has mastered the lifeline of the Orlandor family. He can enjoy countless privileges, including wealth, territory, livestock and even women. He can have whatever he wants in his castle. Whatever it is, there are countless people who flatter him, including his closest relatives, brothers and sisters. However, these are all superficial scenery and decency. In fact, the closer the person is, the more likely it is to shoot a cold arrow in the back. , trying to end his life and splendor so that he could replace him.

Since the day the Marquis inherited the title, he has been assassinated and kidnapped no less than ten times, not to mention other conspiracies and schemes. Fortunately, he was lucky enough to save himself from danger every time, avoiding disaster after disaster. .

It is precisely because he has experienced cruel betrayal and bloody killings, and fought against the god of death on the front line of life and death, that the Marquis is more willing to keep a certain distance from anyone. Like a hedgehog, he can keep warm without hurting each other, so he stays away from the pillow. The neighbors, the young children who are far away from the calf, just want to protect each other in the safest distance.

Of course, Lord Marquis’s pillow has no basis for love with him. He and Chris met at a grand reception in Hong Kong. They were still very young at that time. Power, so hit it off, and happily handed over body and mind in the shortest time, thinking that they had seized the most beautiful encounter in this life, and after the wedding involving gangsters was over, the honey love period had almost exhausted the sweetness in fantasy Only when each other realized that the soul under the surface was not suitable for them, the contradictions began to emerge, and then heated up and intensified in the dispute. a familiar stranger.

Until a quarrel, someone yelled "divorce", the couple finally hit it off again, and they really went to the court to apply for divorce. Unfortunately, the judge looked away from the heavy documents and saw With the determination and impatience on the faces of the Marquis and his wife, they even told them coldly that he could not handle this family matter, and it would only be effective if His Majesty the Emperor approved it.

However, at that time, there happened to be a couple of dukes who had just got married and ran to His Majesty the Emperor for divorce. His Majesty confiscated all the property of the duke and his wife on the grounds of "unfaithful feelings, why loyalty to state affairs", not only The duke's hereditary title was taken back, and the two families were driven out of Regang. Anyone who interceded for them would be punished together.That incident caused a lot of trouble, and the Marquis and his wife did not have the guts to try such a terrible end, so the cold war began, and living in two places became the best choice.

When the Marquis was very bored and went to the manor to collect the rent, he met some flatterers who also greeted his wife in front of him. What appeared in his mind was a vague face, and he didn't remember much about his wife's appearance. .

Confused love, confused marriage, this is the only cognition that the Marquis and Marquis coexist after many years.

Therefore, the Marquis didn't feel disobedient at the devil's indifference. Instead, he enjoyed the sense of security because of the distance he kept between each other. He had a thrilling day, and his body and mind were exhausted to varying degrees, so he found a dry place. Originally wanted to take a rest and refresh himself, but he didn't know that he was sleepy, so he yawned a few times, curled up like this, and fell asleep.

The Marquis fell asleep, and was still a little out of shape when he woke up. When he saw the devil sitting cross-legged, all the memories came flooding back. He looked around vigilantly. The wild man didn't know where he went. The prisoners also seemed to be afraid of this They didn't come close to this cell to beat him up, they just hid in the darkness far away to observe the situation.

"You saved me, and I will repay you!" The Marquis coughed lightly and cleared his throat. He was instilled by his elders in the concept of aristocratic status since he was a child, and he behaved condescendingly towards those who were inferior to him. , Now that he is in peace, it is difficult to be humble, even if this person is his savior, and he looks handsome, very pleasing to the eye.

The meditating demon remained motionless, like an old monk in meditation, as if he had lost his five sense organs.Marquis's rare gesture of goodwill in his life was completely ignored by the devil, and he was not angry, but only felt a sense of loss. If it was normal, he would have to act like a domineering one more time before he would stop.

"What do you use the jade in your hand for?" The Marquis approached the devil and saw a piece of black jade in his clasped palms. The texture of a piece of family heirloom jade in the upper line looks very similar.

The demon who was busy accumulating energy still ignored him.

The Marquis touched his neck, only to find a round gem, and then remembered that a similar piece of jade had been given to the little lord when he was born, even though it was inherited from his ancestors. "Biography" jade, but the Marquis didn't think it was so precious, and he was reluctant to wear it in many cases. Later, when his son was born, the elders told him to pass on the family jade to the next generation, and the Marquis installed many jewelry accessories. The disheveled jade was found in the treasure box and given to his one-year-old son. It has been five or six years. If the Marquis hadn’t seen such an ugly jade, he would never have remembered that he had worn it before. Woolen cloth.

Although the devil ignored the Marquis, the Marquis kept the matter of the jade in his heart. When the little lord appeared in front of him with something delicious the next day, the Marquis' first question was: "Do you still have something to eat?" That piece of family heirloom jade? Bring it to me!"

The little lord tilted his head and thought about it. In his impression, he had never received any jade from his father, and he had never worn a piece of jade on his body, let alone other expensive accessories, so he followed him a few years ago. My mother left the aristocratic castle in Hong Kong and arrived in the metropolis. Two years ago, she came to the Friars College to take classes. Few people around could recognize from his clothes that he would be the heir to the Marquis in the future.

Seeing his son's bewildered expression, the Marquis was annoyed and impatient, and described to him the appearance of the family heirloom gem, and drew a rough shape on the ground based on his memory, and then asked his son to go back and look for it carefully. .

The little lord was disappointed for a while, and walked towards the castle dejectedly. After catching the garden bugs, he brought a meal to see his father before he had time to eat breakfast. He wanted to have breakfast with his father, but the father and son met On the other hand, his father didn't ask him if he had eaten or not, he didn't ask him how he was doing in the metropolis, and he didn't even give him a warm hug, so he hurriedly ordered him to find some family heirloom jade. No wonder.

Uncomfortable, the little lord still kept his father's entrustment in his heart, went back to the room, searched around, but found no piece of jade, so he asked the big butler to ask, the big butler thought it was the maid who took care of the little lord who stole it. After walking away, he caught the maid immediately, but unfortunately, he didn't find any clues under the punishment, so he had to drive her out of the castle.

The maid who had been wronged cried and hugged her companions to bid farewell, and the first maid who was fighting for her said: "You didn't steal it, why should you endure such injustice! Let's go to the city lord to uphold justice!" She When she said Lord City Lord, her body couldn't help shivering. Not only her, but her other companions were all afraid of Lord City Lord. When they saw him, their bodies couldn't help shaking, and they would just prostrate on the ground. Speak well?

Maid B said tremblingly: "Let's go to Brother Yacintos for help, he is the least afraid of the Lord of the City..."

"I also think it's more reliable to find Brother Hyacinthus, he is most willing to help us!" Maid C echoed repeatedly.

Brother Hyacinthus was rubbing his old waist right now. It had been a long time since he had been bullied so hard, and his bones were about to fall apart.

After hearing the cry of the wronged maid, Hyacinthus remembered something he did a few years ago.

At that time, the little lord was only three or four years old, with a small, soft body, and was as cute as little Baisha, so Hyacinthus played with the little little lord all day long. According to the legend of deep sea ghosts, every child should wear red clothes to ward off evil spirits. At that time, he was also influenced by the city lord, and became very interested in oriental culture, so he bought a small red dress from a businessman from the east. The apron, cut the piece of jade tied around the little lord's neck, and asked the embroiderer to embroider a beast on the little apron. The ghosts and monsters were all frightened away, so that they never dared to attack the little lord again.

It has been a few years, and the little lord has grown so big that the rusty beast's little bellyband can no longer be worn. I don't know where I put it back then. It must have been pressed at the bottom of the closet. ...

After appeasing the wronged maid, Brother Jacintos resisted the discomfort in his body and stood up slowly, intending to find the little bellyband in the little lord's room.

However, his luck was not very good. As soon as he reached the door of the room, he was blocked by the city lord.

"Where are you going?" asked an unhappy voice.

"Just go and see your little nephew..." He explained gently.

"What's so good about him!" said an indisputable voice.

"He's looking for... Hey!" The last voice protested.

"I'm not allowed!" It was still a domineering voice of refusal.

"Hmm..." The last vague ending covered the rustling of clothes, and Brother Hyacinthus still couldn't step out of his room that day.

The next day, when the sun was shining and the city lord Shi Shiran went out to deal with official business, Brother Yacintos was able to sneak out of the room where he was confined for two days. He wanted to go to the back garden to find little Baisha. , Unexpectedly, he was stopped by the butler halfway.

It turned out that the little lord was in a mood, and he didn't want to eat since last night.

The butler's technique of coaxing the children was a bit clumsy, and the little lord was not fooled at all. In desperation, the big butler first reported the situation of the little lord to the Marquise. Knowing that the Marquise was closing the door and asking the maids to help copy the book, she also She was so badly copied that her body was covered in ink, and her fair face was like a cat with a painted face, but she didn't have time to wash it, let alone meet anyone, so the head housekeeper couldn't even step into the courtyard where she lived.

The butler didn't dare to meet the city lord, because the castle had just welcomed a postman who seemed to have brought some urgent matter to tell the city lord, so he ran away and died at the gate of the city.

Therefore, the butler had no choice but to find Brother Hyacinthus.

Brother Hyacinthus thought of the maid who came to cry yesterday, and patted his head. Really, after being treated like this by that person, he forgot such an important matter...

The little lord probably couldn't find his family heirloom jade, so he wasn't in the mood to eat.

Brother Hyacinthus hurried to the little lord's residence, the door of the little lord's room was wide open, and little Baisha was sitting at the table eating heartily, gnawing on the greasy chicken legs.

It turned out that the little lord hadn't found the family heirloom, so he didn't have the heart to eat. The new maid was afraid that she wouldn't be able to take care of the little lord, so she begged him to eat more, otherwise if the housekeeper found out, it would be a trivial matter to scold her. It would be a big deal if she was kicked out of the castle like the maid from before!

Because being able to work as a maid in a castle is a very decent job in a big city. Not to mention the high wages, just saying that you can often see the city lord and occasionally get some rewards from the city lord is enough to earn a lot of money. The envious eyes of the common people, and when the age of marriage is reached in the future, more men with good families will come to propose marriage!

The little lord couldn't help the new maid's pleading with snot and tears, so he called little Baisha to share his worries.

Little Baisha is not too polite, she eats like an autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves!Holding the roasted chicken leg in his left hand, and the stewed pig's trotter in his right hand, his two dark eyes were glowing with excitement, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was on a killing spree...

"Master!" Little Baisha, who was biting something, could not speak clearly. When she saw Brother Hyacinthus, she burst into a smile and stood up happily. Come to his side to express the missing feelings that I haven't seen for two days.

"Hello monk." The little lord was much more cautious, he lowered his head, his pale face was obviously the result of insomnia and worry.

Brother Hyacinthus touched the little Lord's little head, took his little hand to the wardrobe, explained to him the whereabouts of the jade, and searched for the little apron that he didn't know where it was placed.

However, the little bellyband seemed to be invisible. It was neither in the closet nor in the suitcase, and I couldn't find it no matter how hard I looked.

The little lord drooped his little head, tears were hanging on his thick and long eyebrows, and his mouth was flattened if he wanted to cry or not.

Brother Hyacinthus gently rubbed the top of his hair, comforting him silently.

The missing bellyband was quickly found back. In order to find its whereabouts, Brother Hyacinthus quietly activated the magic of the hourglass against time, and recorded what happened in this room from this moment onwards. Reverse to six years ago.

Frames of images flashed before the eyes of Brother Hyacinthus. There was a picture of little Baisha biting a chicken leg, a picture of the little lord reading and practicing calligraphy, a picture of the maid cleaning the room, and a picture of the butler doing the job well. The scene of the new clothes being delivered, and the scene of Brother Hyacinthus returning with the sleeping Lord on his back...

And when the little Lord in the picture became smaller and smaller, more and more faces from the past appeared on the picture, but there was no trace of the little bellyband, until Brother Hyacinthus rolled down drops of sweat on his forehead, The time-reversing hourglass was finally fixed on the nanny who was feeding the little lord. She looked around furtively and saw that no one was around, so she stuffed the folded red rusty auspicious beast into her belly pocket. In his arms, he left in a hurry with it in his arms.

After Brother Hyacinthus stopped the spell, he swayed prostratedly and panted heavily. His face was very pale, and his rosy lips were so dry that a few bloody mouths were cracked, oozing tiny blood beads.

Sensing the weak breath of Yacinthos, the face of the city lord changed, and he hurriedly left behind the postman who had received the important news, and he did not hesitate to change into the original shape of the white wolf, and rushed from the living room in an instant Before Brother Hyacinthus.

So, the Lord City Lord was furious again, and punished a large group of people severely, even the little Baisha who was eating and the big housekeeper who was wandering far away were implicated.

Little Baisha was fined to go to the chicken farm to raise chickens, and the housekeeper was almost dismissed. However, under the plea of ​​Brother Hyacinthus, he was spared the heavy fine. He was only deducted half a year's wages. Who asked him to come People with unclean hands and feet!

The nanny changed positions three years ago, and was transferred to the kitchen supervisor, because she had raised the little lord, and she was considered a person who had made meritorious service. Her status overwhelmed those who refused to obey her discipline, even though she had never seen the little lord since she was transferred from the little lord's side.

Others don't know if it's true or not, but everyone knows that she is the little lord's nanny. Everyone is a little afraid of her, for fear of offending her and losing this good job, so if they can bear it, they can't. The people who endured had a big argument with her, and they were excluded and slandered by her in everything, and most of them resigned after not working for long.

So when the nanny was arrested for stealing, all the cooks in the kitchen were overjoyed.The wall fell under everyone's push, and there were no less than thirty crimes related to the nanny. The housekeeper was merciless in dealing with her because she was implicated.

Soon, the little apron with the rusted auspicious beast came out from her home. It turned out that she saw that the apron was beautiful, it was made of silk, and it was rusted with such a beautiful auspicious beast, so she became greedy very early on. She stole it home until the little Lord grew up and was no longer suitable for wearing it. Unfortunately, her son had grown up at that time and couldn't fit the little bellyband, so she put it under the box Next, after a long time, she herself forgot to steal the little belly bag.

But she has no way to deny it, because besides this little apron, there are many valuables that came out of the castle in her box, such as gauze hats, bracelets, vases, cups, and porcelain pillows. Pulled back.Counting them down, there are about a hundred items, big and small, and that doesn't include the items that she secretly took to sell...

There was a lot of commotion on this side of the castle, and everyone was in danger, but on the other side of the prison, it was still the same as before, and the prisoners were often chased up and down by the tiger monster, suffering unspeakably.

Because of the protection of the devil, the Marquis lived a slightly more peaceful life than other prisoners, but recently he often had dreams. In the dream, he returned to his youth, wrestling and practicing swords with a few of his former good friends, riding horses and hunting. The rabbit that came was given to the beautiful first love girl. The girl raised her beautiful face and smiled at him, like a lily blooming quietly, pure white, pure and natural...

But today's dream has a little more follow-up content. The Marquis held the hand of the girl he first fell in love with and wandered on the hillside full of wild flowers. The mountain wind rolled up her long brown hair, which confused his eyes one by one. The Marquis He stretched out his hand joyfully, trying to grab the locks of hair that stirred his heart, but the locks of hair suddenly twisted and turned into rattlesnakes with grinning teeth, flying high and high. He bowed his head, spat out a long snake letter, bared two deep fangs, and kept approaching his face.

"Ah!" The Marquis screamed, trembling all over, and woke up with a start.

"Ah!" The tiger demon who was painting a peacock on his face was also taken aback by him. He fell backwards, spilled the paint in his hand, and lost the brush somewhere.

The demon frowned unobtrusively. It was fine for the human to be frightened, but why was the tiger demon also frightened?At any rate, he is also the overlord of one party, who usually plays a role in bravado, and does not have the demeanor and majesty that a strong man should have. He has lived so many years in vain!

"What are you going to do!" The Marquis shrank back instinctively, but found that his body seemed to be wrapped in thousands of vines, and he couldn't move at all. The fear in his heart expanded infinitely in an instant, and he almost passed out, but he was young after all. He is strong, and his will is not as weak as the flowers in the greenhouse. He did not faint immediately, but his tone of voice has already taken on a trembling tone, "I...I warn you, don't mess around! I am the dignified Mo Binguo Your Marquis, if you die unexpectedly, your superiors will investigate thoroughly! At that time, not to mention arresting you on the gallows and paying for your life, even your whole family may be buried with you!"

The Marquis's body was firmly bound by invisible things, and he was beaten up by a group of prisoners before, and now he is telling lies again, so this speech filled with righteous indignation is hesitant, without any deterrent force, Mo Binguo has no He was implicated, but the Marquis looked down on this savage prison tyrant in front of him from the bottom of his heart, thinking that he was a reckless man who might not have studied for a few years, let alone be familiar with the law code, so he dared to pretend to be fooled by the law his.

The tiger demon got up in embarrassment, shook the dust off his clothes, stood majestically in front of the marquis, and taunted: "You have really poor eyesight, you deserve to be a marquis, you say that the prisoner in this prison, which one?" Don't you hate the rich and the noble? You insist on reporting your family name, don't you think your life is too long?"

The marquis was enlightened, and he really felt that his previous words and deeds really pushed himself to the forefront of the storm. He detested the filth and sloppiness of the poor, but he didn't know that the poor were full of arrogance, and if they felt offended by others, they would pay with their lives!

"Aren't you annoying? You're going to die, and you're still holding on to your worthless title. Looking around in this prison, let alone the Marquis, there are several Dukes, but it's only a Marquis, thanks to your kindness." I don’t feel ashamed when I mention it again and again!” Looking at the unfinished painting on his face, he was very dissatisfied, and the tiger demon searched the ground, and finally found the paintbrush he had thrown away at the bottom of the demon’s feet.

The tiger demon grinned, planning to finish the painting of the peacock with its tail open, but unfortunately the voice of the jailer came from the other side of the corridor: "Orlando, someone is looking for it! Orlando!"

The panicked Marquis breathed a sigh of relief, and responded loudly: "I'm here! Take me out quickly!"

The tiger demon's eyes rolled, but he didn't stop the jailer from taking the Marquis with him, and even waited for the Marquis' embarrassment with a smirk on his face.

What he painted on the face of the marquis was a peacock with its tail open. This is a great shame in Mobin Kingdom. The peacock with its tail open is regarded as a low-status male prostitute, because while it shows beautiful feathers on the front, it also shows ugly behind it. Isn't the ass of the man the same as those male whores who served Israel?
