Skeleton King

Chapter 224 The Eve Of The Wedding

The wedding of Prince Nishimoto and Angelica is getting closer.

The attitude of the high society in the imperial capital towards Angelika has also changed greatly. Angelica can be said to be the hottest figure in the imperial capital recently.Prince Xiben is usually cold-faced and ruthless. Many people hope to have a relationship with Angelika, walk in her way, and show their faces in front of Prince Xiben.

Because Angelica lived in the villa of the Green family in the early years, the news that Ace was His Majesty Ludwig IV and the necromancer was limited to a small area and the Duke Grimm's mansion who was close to Ace It also looks busier than other noble mansions.There are still many people envious of Duke Green's good luck. The Duke Green's mansion has always treated the maids kindly, so they must have a close relationship with the future princess.

As for the real relationship between Nou and Angelica, even Princess Bernadette is not very clear about it.She knew that Nuo Ou trusted Angelica, but she was wary of her, which was very weird.

But even so, the Duke Green's mansion is as well organized as usual.Until this day, the most well-mannered old housekeeper of the Duke Green Mansion appeared in Nou's study in a hurry, and his hand that knocked on the door of the study was trembling.

Nuo Ou sat behind the desk in the study, looking at the old butler with red eyes in surprise.The old butler looked so excited that he seemed to be drunk, even standing there trembling.

Nuo Ou looked at the old housekeeper quietly.

The old steward sobbed: "The knights of Green Castle on the eastern plains of Louisiana Province, and the shepherds of the remote village closest to the monster forest, they have all returned. Those who died have returned. And mine son……"

Nuoou slowly looked up from his seat.Sure enough, Ace didn't lie to him, Nou thought.

"But, those people who came back, are they still alive?" Nuo Ou asked.

When the old butler heard Noou's question, he seemed to be strangled by someone.He was worried that Nou would take away God's gift to them, and he also knew in his heart that the dead could not be resurrected, and those who returned to the eastern plains of Louisiana Province might be human or not.This was the first time that the old steward regretted reporting the information on the Green family's fiefdom to Nou so quickly. He stammered: "Of course...they...they look no different from ordinary people..."

Nou sighed and explained: "It's not that I don't recognize them. As long as they are the people of the Green family's fiefdom, no matter what they become, I will welcome them back. I'm just worried... that kind of magic potion is made too much. Well, they are with their old wives and husbands, and they will have ghost babies. I will go to Ace about this..."

The old butler left Duke Green's mansion in a daze, he vaguely understood what Noou meant.Those who returned to the eastern plains of the Louisiana Province did not come back for no reason. It was because someone had refined a magic potion that could bring people back to life. Master related.Master Ace is not really missing, Duke Green can still contact him.

……

Territory of Chaos.

Even the Knights of the Royal Guards in the Territory of Chaos were affected by Prince Nishimoto's wedding.The deputy head of the Royal Guard Knights once came to discuss with Sykes, wanting to win a big victory before Prince Xiben's wedding and give Prince Xiben a wedding gift, but Sykes turned him away with a half-smile.

The deputy head's suggestion was indeed good. If they made a breakthrough in the city that never sleeps, it would indeed be more in line with Prince Xiben's wishes than other gold, silver and jewelry.However, Sykes already knew from Ace that many affairs in the city that never sleeps are still taken care of by Angelica. Offending the future princess who is in love with Prince Nishimoto for this victory is not only about being hated by the future princess It's as simple as that.

But Sykes also had a very distressing thing, "Damn it! Art can't be contacted!"

Originally, before every battle, Sykes would discuss with Alt, exchange information, and try to minimize the damage of both sides.These two people from the Knights of the Pansy Empire teamed up to trap the Knights of the Eiffel Province of the Finger Empire under the nose of the magic island, and won a big victory.But for a whole day, Sykes couldn't contact Art, which brought him an ominous premonition.

According to Sykes' conception, only the Twin Cities can survive for three months, and the Magic Island will definitely retreat without a fight.The situation in the small plane is precarious, and they don't have time to spend too long here.

Of course, from Sykes' point of view, the attack on the Twin Cities by Magic Island at this time is a very foolish move.

Magic Island has stood at the pinnacle of this plane for too long. They are used to speaking with strength, not resourcefulness.This is harmless in the first place, but the small plane and the twin cities are not like other forces, and the gap with the magic island is too big.If this recklessness continues, Sykes worries that the entire plane will pay the price for the reckless actions of Magic Island.

……

The Pansy Palace is surprisingly quiet and magnificent today.

Tomorrow is the wedding day of Prince Nishimoto and Angelica.Although Prince Xiben is not yet the king of the Pansy Empire, he is not far behind, and the wedding's specification is the king's specification.Just like 21 years ago, His Majesty Ludwig IV married Queen Celia.At that time, because the war had just ended in the imperial capital, the wedding was unavoidably a bit bleak.

Today, the imperial capital is also undercurrents. His Majesty Ludwig IV is "sick for a long time", and Prince Nishimoto's name is not right, and it is difficult for the imperial capital to truly celebrate.

However, for various reasons, the wedding was still very lively.More than a month in advance, Prince Xiben spread invitations to every corner of the empire.At this critical moment, as long as the families that were not determined to turn against Prince Xiben had already sent people to the imperial capital, they presented gifts to Prince Xiben and the new princess.

According to the tradition of the Pansy Empire, the family of the new princess should hold a ball and entertain guests tonight.

But it was no secret that Angelica was born in the upper class of the imperial capital. Her family members in Bad Soden were all personally escorted to the imperial capital by Viscount Neumann.Her pair of vulgar parents, more than a dozen brothers and sisters, simply opened the eyes of the nobles in the imperial capital.The nobles laughed at them privately, but they also clung to them face to face, praising Angelica.

Especially Angelica's pretty good-looking little sisters, whose suitors instantly changed from the sons of rural farmers to the sons of minor nobles in the imperial capital without inheritance rights.

Prince Xiben originally wanted to buy a villa in the imperial capital, give it to the Feiffer family, and then match them with servants and maids. Later, he wanted Angelica to hold a banquet in Rose Castle, but in the end he decided on the Pansy Palace .Not only is there a precedent in history, but it can also highlight the importance Prince Nishimoto attaches to her.

The Pansy Palace seemed to have been refurbished by Prince Nishimoto, and even the birds flying in the sky had exceptionally white feathers and elegant postures, as if they could feel the joy in the heart of this beautiful couple.

The silver armor of the knights in the Pansy Palace has hollow patterns, the swords around their waists are shiny, and the trousers are neatly tucked into their boots. Each of them looks so handsome that it can make people crazy.

And the handsomest man in the palace will soon be out of bachelorhood.

When Nuo Ou saw Angelica, she was sitting in the greenhouse, surrounded by several maids who were placing pastries.I have to say that newly married women are the most beautiful.Angelica wore a small wreath on her head and a long white dress on her body. She looked noble and elegant. If people who didn't know saw this scene, they would think she was a princess from a neighboring country.

Angelica wasn't as well dressed as many imagined.On the contrary, her dress was simpler than usual, and when she saw Nou, she saluted as usual, "Duke Green."

Nuoou also gave her a half salute, "Why are you here? Where is Prince Xiben?"

Angelica smiled, she looked like a woman completely immersed in the joy of newlyweds, she said: "We can't meet before we get married."

Nuo Ou's words were polite and flattering, and some jokes narrowed the distance between them, "You can't meet? You have occupied the palace of His Royal Highness Prince Xiben, where do you want him to live tonight?"

After Nuo Ou finished speaking, several lively maids around laughed.Only Angelica noticed that there was no smile in Nuo's eyes.

She said: "Prince Xiben should also be in the palace, but we won't see him."

After the maids finished placing the cakes, they withdrew.

Only Nuoou and Angelica are still in the greenhouse. The greenhouse is translucent, they can see the people outside from inside, and similarly, people outside can also easily see them.

This is the first time that Nou and Angelica have spoken alone since Nou and Ace went to the Finger Empire.How many things have become completely different since their mission.

Nuo Ou said: "I really didn't expect that you would marry Prince Xiben."

Angelica smiled softly and said, "I didn't expect this either."

Nuo Ou didn't believe Angelica's words at all.In terms of resourcefulness alone, Angelica can be ranked among the top five people Nuo Ou has met.Nuo Ou even felt that it was overkill for Angelica to marry Prince Xiben.

Every time she makes a move, she will preset dozens of moves ahead.

Before Nuo Ou could speak, he noticed a stranger outside the greenhouse.Angelica also followed Nou's gaze and turned to look over.A chubby old man with a smile like Maitreya Buddha walked towards the greenhouse with a crimson wine glass in his hand.

Although Nuo Ou had never seen him, he soon became clear about his identity.Because the attire and temperament of the old man are very similar to those of Mellon University scholars. They all wore simple gray robes. When they saw Angelica and Nuo Ou, they were calm and calm.They are not putting on airs, but wisdom has given them background.

Scholar Myron has been living in the Pansy Palace for a few days, and Angelica also recognizes him.Before marrying Prince Xiben, the status of most people in this palace was higher than her.Angelica still respects the Myron University scholar very much, she took the initiative to salute and said, "Myron University scholar."

Scholar Myron looked at Angelika with a smile, and said: "Prince Xiben worried that Miss Angelika would pay too much attention to tomorrow's wedding, and she would lose sleep tonight, so he asked me to bring it here. This is wine made from red roses in the palace. , has a miraculous effect on treating insomnia."

After the words of Scholar Myron fell, Nou cast his eyes on the glass of red rose wine, which had a subtle magical fluctuation.
