The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer
Chapter 123 There's a Snake in the Garden
Three days, three full days!
When Prince Leon woke up from his coma, he remembered his forgotten memories.
That fatal assassination, and the communication process after contact with Li.
"Somebody come!"
Leon shouted loudly, and George, who was waiting nearby, heard the sound and immediately opened the bedroom door.
"Your Highness, your most loyal attendant George is here!"
Leon glanced at the servant who broke in, and then slightly let go of the fear in his heart.
He was in the palace, in his own bed, with trustworthy people watching over him.
After relaxing, Leon realized that he was physically tired.
Three days of sleep did not allow Leon's body to rest. He was now tired, hungry, and severely dehydrated.
Fortunately, George had prepared everything.
Several servants came in, wiped Leon's body, changed his clothes, and brought him warm and delicious soup to nourish Leon's empty body.
"George, what happened these days?"
Leon had some memory of these days, and George invited Lee over and helped cure his amnesia.
However, Leon was not very clear about the specific process. He only knew that he was often in a coma.
"That's right, Your Highness. Mr. Li has done his best to find out what happened to you and spent a lot of money to make you recover, but..."
"Just what?"
"Your treatment required some special magical materials, which required payment. Since Your Highness was ill, I took the initiative to agree to Mr. Li's request."
Leon closed his eyes and thought for a while. He was still a little confused and felt that the process George described was too simple.
"Just some money, pay him."
George clenched his hands behind his back and cashed out successfully!
"Your Highness, you need to rest more now, and there is a troublesome matter that needs your attention."
George quickly brought up another topic to disrupt Leon's thoughts.
As expected, Leon was led astray by George.
"Trouble? Oh, if you hadn't mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten. It's an engagement!"
Leon found this trouble in his somewhat confused memory.
According to the scheduled time, Leon and Lian’s engagement party should have been held two days ago.
However, Leon was knocked unconscious by Li Gezhi and missed the important day.
"The guests have arrived at the palace, and the banquet has been extended to today. Your Highness can rest up and show up at the banquet this afternoon."
Leon didn't want to attend the party. He had just woken up and wanted to sort out the confused memories in his mind.
But thinking back to the previous assassination attempt and the time he and Lee had hidden in the underground sewer, Leon finally adjusted his attitude.
"What excuses have you used to shirk your responsibilities during this period?"
"We announced to the public that Your Highness had fallen off his horse."
"very good."
After a while, Leon slept for two hours, washed his face, brushed his teeth, and matched his shirt and pants, and was finally ready to attend the party.
George pushed a wheelchair with Prince Leon, who had just woken up, sitting in it, and they appeared at the banquet venue.
This engagement party, which has been held for three days, finally welcomed its protagonist today.
Seeing Leon coming, many nobles stood up excitedly. They clapped their hands hard to relieve the pressure that had accumulated for three days.
During these three days, all kinds of rumors and gossip about the royal family and the Grand Duke spread back and forth among the nobles, changing and stirring everyone's heartstrings.
If Leon doesn't show up again, some fence-sitter nobles will not be able to hold on.
Most of the nobles present were slightly overweight, one reason was the pressure from the palace, and the other was that the food at the banquet was too delicious.
"Your Highness! Is your leg okay?"
An earl from the southern border was eager to show himself. He walked quickly to Leon and expressed his concern about Leon's legs.
"Don't worry about it, it's just a horse's pursuit of freedom."
Leon moved his foot to let everyone see that he only suffered a minor injury and it was not a real amputation.
"That's a really naughty pony. I hope your highness gets well soon."
"Lend your auspicious words."
After a brief exchange, the banquet was held again.
The classical music played by the palace band always made Leon feel that something was missing.
"The Grand Duke's daughter seems to be away?"
"Except for the first day, Miss Lian has not been here for the past two days."
Leon's legs were inconvenient to move, which served as an excuse for refusing to dance.
George pushed Leon to the dining table nearby, and George helped Leon pick up some exquisite-looking snacks.
"Originally I should have rejected this damn engagement, but I missed the best opportunity because of amnesia."
Leon cancelled his engagement with his cousin Feng and decided to get engaged to Lian instead. This was not something Leon had initiated.
The people behind all this are the aristocratic parliament that wants to hold on to power, and his father the emperor whom he has not seen for many years.
"There's nothing we can do about it. Your Highness, you didn't know anything at the time."
When the order was first given, Leon had the opportunity to refuse.
Now that the banquet has been held and the news has been made known to the public, it will be very difficult for Leon to go back on his word.
"Your Highness, try these snacks. They will improve your mood."
George put the fork aside, but Leon froze.
A single plate of desserts, a single fork, failed to attract Leon's attention.
But when the two items were combined, Leon suddenly felt a strong resistance in his heart.
“…George, are you hiding something?”
"Your Highness, how could I possibly hide this from my master?"
“About dessert and forks…”
"Your Highness, if you don't like snacks, I can get you some fruit."
George quickly took the snack away and replaced the contents of the plate with something else.
Leon's eyelids twitched up and down. He now confirmed what his personal attendant and that Li had done to him who had lost his memory.
Are they treating me like a toy?
"…You don't have to stay so far away from me. I'm not really angry. Anyway, what is Li doing now?"
Leon just felt awkward and didn't get angry with George.
George was relieved when he saw this, and was very happy about Leon's growth.
A leader who allows his subordinates to make mistakes is a good leader.
"Mr. Li said that your situation is very strange and he will try to find the source of the problem. By the way, does Your Highness remember what you encountered?"
Leon lost his soul, he must have encountered an abnormal attack.
Leon remembered it only after George reminded him.
"I remember walking in the garden and a snake seemed to appear..."
"A snake! Your Highness, should we notify the soldiers to seal off the entire garden?"
Leon rolled his eyes at George. It had been so long, how could the thing that attacked him still be in the garden?
What's more, a snake that can bite off the soul is not so easy to catch.
