After being addicted to alchemy, the lady was kneeled down and licked by the Duke

To celebrate the Emperor's triumph, a night banquet was held at Perkimlin Palace.

When Li Aili went back to her room to change clothes, she heard the whispers of the servants at the corner of the stairs.

"His Royal Highness Aqil is such a strange child."

Another person said: "Yeah, he just asked for a lot of monster blood and raw internal organs from the kitchen."

"If he wasn't a descendant of the Holy Dragon bloodline, I would have thought he was researching evil sacrifices."

Li Aili coughed lightly, "Cough."

The three footmen glanced at her in confusion.

Li Aili: "..." You three look familiar.

They hurriedly saluted Li Aili and ran away in a hurry.

Li Aili looked at the backs of the three people with a complicated expression.

A small number of people here can be seen in Constantinople a thousand years later.

But not much more can be seen.

Conrad a thousand years later is a devil.

But she was very sure that Conrad was still human at this time.

What happened in this thousand years?

Li Aili thought deeply and walked to her room.

On the way, she bumped into Aqil who was walking out carrying a bucket.

The little boy was pale, but his lips were surprisingly red.

He glanced at Li Aili and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, "Good night, Miss Li Aili."

When Aqil was in the Dragon Tower, that last look of hatred for everything was still before her eyes.

Li Aili nodded to him, "Good night, Your Highness."

After saying hello, Aqil carried the bucket and walked down the stairs.

He was humming a song softly, it was the Requiem of the Holy Dragon.

The tone is half yearning and mourning, half joyful, contradictory and strange.

She glanced at the bucket, which had a lid on it.

But the lid couldn't block the smell, and the strong smell of blood came out of the barrel.

Li Aili remembered the conversation of the valet.

"Your Highness, where are you going?" she asked out of nowhere.

Aqil paused as he walked down the stairs. He turned back and looked at Li Aili with his dark eyes.

He slowly raised the corners of his mouth and smiled, "Go to a place where the emperor can't see you, and play pranks."

After saying that, he quickly ran down the stairs with the bucket and disappeared.

When Li Aili returned to the room, Catherine had already delivered the dress for the night banquet.

"Thank you." Li Aili politely thanked her.

Catherine stood at the door and hesitated, "Well... may I ask, did I do something wrong?"

Li Aili: "...what?"

Catherine lowered her eyes slightly and said aggrievedly: "It feels like you... don't like me very much."

Li Aili: "..." Sister, it's because you don't like me very much.

But then she thought again, that was Catherine a thousand years later.

What does it have to do with the current Catherine?

She should think of the current Catherine as a completely new person, not the Medusa Catherine a thousand years from now.

Li Aili pondered for a moment, "Can you do makeup?"

Catherine's eyes lit up, "Yes! I'm good at makeup!"

"Can you please help me put on makeup?"

Catherine nodded vigorously, "Yeah!!"

Then, Li Aili realized what "excessive force" means.

Probably Catherine wanted to have a good relationship with her too much.

This makeup was really put on with all your might!

Li Aili looked in the mirror and was shocked by the effect.

That's so beautiful!

She understands daffodils!

but!

Boss, is it really okay for you to let me attend the emperor's banquet like this? ?

Isn’t it true that you won’t overshadow the guest? ?

Catherine was also stunned, then came back to her senses, looked at Li Aili in the mirror, and said with a hint of jealousy:

"You are so beautiful."

"No wonder His Highness Arthur would..."

When Catherine brought the jewelry, Li Aili directly refused: "No, this is enough."

Catherine dropped her jewelry from good to exile.

But my hands were itchy, so I made a half-moon-shaped garland with small white flowers in a vase.

She placed the wreath on top of Li Ellie's head.

Long, smooth golden hair, paired with a pure white flower crown.

"You are as beautiful as the moon goddess!"

Then, on the way to the banquet hall, Li Aili heard Catherine chirping and praising her appearance.

Until he reached the closed door of the banquet hall.

Catherine then stopped speaking and assumed the airs of a palace lady.

"Miss Li Aili has arrived——" the palace etiquette officer announced the name of the guest.

Then, the banquet door slowly opened.

The bright lights in the hall illuminated Li Aili's face with her moving words.

In the grand hall where people were drinking wine and drinking, countless people looked at her.

Soon, these people either lost their minds or gasped...

The emperor, standing in the middle of the crowd, cast an 'inquiring look' at the empress beside him.

The emperor looked at the youngest son beside him, whose ears were red, and nodded with a chuckle.

The emperor looked at his eldest son on the other side.

Albert was tilting his head and was pulled by Victoria, who was wearing a red dress, to speak.

The empress calmly pushed her youngest son.

Arthur belatedly strode towards the front door.

Li Aili saw the prince striding up to her on the red carpet.

He used his upright posture to block outside sight.

Arthur solemnly handed his hand to Li Aili.

There was a hint of anxiety in his eyes.

He seemed... worried?

For such a large banquet, everyone will find a male or female companion.

However, attending the banquet hand in hand does not mean anything.

So, Li Aili put her hand up with peace of mind.

When Li Ellie put her hand on Arthur's palm.

Arthur was visibly relieved.

Li Aili asked curiously: "Your Highness is nervous? What are you worried about?"

Arthur did not shy away and said bluntly: "You are too beautiful, no, too beautiful. I'm afraid you will reject me."

This is the simplest truth, but also the most beautiful.

Li Aili's cheeks felt slightly warm.

"Let's go, I'll introduce you to father."

Li Aili was also overwhelmed by 18-year-old Arthur's "candid offensive".

In this way, he was led to the emperor.

Li Aili rolled up her skirt and bowed to the patron saint of the empire.

"His Majesty."

The emperor nodded slightly, "No courtesy, miss. No need to be restrained."

He didn't talk much, and after saying this sentence, he was preoccupied with other matters.

Everyone spoke to him and he would nod or shake his head.

The emperor and empress stood quietly beside him, or slowly sipped the wine in the cup.

However, whenever the empress reached out for the dessert brought by the attendant, no matter how busy the emperor was, he would be distracted and stop her.

Li Aili glanced at Arthur faintly and said, "It turns out that it's hereditary."

Arthur: "?"

"His Royal Highness Aqil has arrived——"

The palace etiquette officer's words fell.

The door opened, and Aqil walked into the hall wearing a pure black dress.

The young man's face was as pale as paper.

He made a beeline for Prince Alex in the crowd.

This was the first time they had met since that day when Aqil was kidnapped.

Previously, the emperor and empress had deliberately separated them.

I want each other to calm down.

A waiter passed by Aqil and he picked up the two glasses of wine on the tray.

The young man held the wine glass and walked up to Prince Alex, "Uncle, are you willing to accept my apology?"

The bright red drink was handed to Alex.

The prince took the drink, patted Aqil's shoulder with his palm, and patted it slowly.

The prince picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp.

His throat rolled, and the drink entered his stomach.

The grievances and disputes between the royal family members have always been the gossip that the nobles are most willing to pay attention to.

Everyone has heard about the dispute between Duke Achiel and Prince Alex in the Dragon Tower.

Now that they saw this scene, everyone applauded sincerely.

I'm really happy for this uncle and nephew to break the ice.

Albert frowned and looked at Achill.

The emperor turned his head slightly and looked at his eldest son, "Albert, blood is better than..."

Before he finished speaking, there was only a "click" sound of glass breaking.

The wine glass fell to the ground and shattered.

Prince Alex's mouth couldn't help but bleed, and then large mouthfuls of blood spurted out.

He looked at the crazy laughing nephew in front of him in shock.

Then he fell unwillingly...

He didn't even close his eyes until he died.
