[Beauty and the Beast] Rose Castle

Ocean Northland is a brand new civilization to me.Generally speaking, people's attitudes towards new civilizations are very subtle.Just like after the red race was discovered, the debate on how to deal with them has not stopped until now.The royal family is only willing to welcome the new civilization by means of slaughter or slavery.

I am different from those arrogant royal families. I don't want to slaughter or enslave others. I just want to learn about the history and culture of the North Ocean Kingdom so as to determine my future destiny.

Fortunately, there is a study in this bedroom.After the iguanas left, I crouched inside and read for hours.I thought there would be a cultural gap between the land and the sea, but when I actually read their books, I found that they use the same language as us, except that some technical terms are still written in French.However, I have studied French for several years, and I can read it smoothly.

At the beginning, I just wanted to read the official history, but after looking at it, the history book in my hand became a miscellaneous history.It has to be said that the unofficial history of the Northern Kingdom is much more interesting than the official history.Almost every historian will make fun of Lambert and his first queen.Of course, not every historian has a romantic and humorous heart, and there are also many conspiracy theories emerging.One of the most widely circulated conspiracy theories is that the first queen may carry something that can make the sea people powerful.That's why Lambert wanted to find her so persistently.

I read it for a long time and found this statement to be the most convincing.Maybe because I have heard too many scandals about the royal family since I was a child, I still don't believe that a king can be so infatuated.Not to mention the ups and downs of the king's life, at least it is also full of opportunities.I still remember when my mother just passed away, although my father was extremely sad, he didn’t even have one more day to mourn, and he needed to judge and deal with the piles of official affairs...and once people get busy, there will be less time to miss the past .Infatuation that lasts for hundreds of years may exist, but it will never appear in the king.

After finishing "The History of the Absurd Northern Kingdom" and preparing to watch "The Love That Led to the Fall of a Dynasty", a voice came from behind me: "I seem to have come at the wrong time."

A day ago, I didn't remember this voice, but after today, I definitely remember this voice deeply.I closed the book, turned around and smiled dryly: "Your Majesty Lambert."

Lambert stood at the door of the study.He was wearing a shirt specially made by Ocean North, which was made of a kind of silk cloth that was soaked in water and would not deform easily.The collar of the shirt was attached to his neck docilely, making his neck particularly slender.He seemed to have a particular preference for rubies, and his shirt buttons, cufflinks, brooches, and rings on his little fingers were all set with gems as bright as pigeon blood. ! .I quietly put the book back on the bookshelf, and said without words: "People in our country also like rubies very much."

He walked over slowly, each step firmly landed on the ground, not like walking in sea water, but walking on land.

"What about you?" he asked.

"Of course I like it too. It's just that a ruby ​​with a pure color is too rare to come by, and each one is the blood and sweat of the people. I like rubies, but I don't like to waste money and money to get them." At this point, I suddenly realized that I made a mistake. , I quickly apologized and said, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I didn't mean to accuse you... I have been away from home for too long, and I have completely forgotten the royal etiquette. Sometimes I speak out, please don't mind."

He shook his head and whispered, "I don't mind."

For some reason, I always feel that he is carefully reading every word I said, as if I am a highly respected missionary, and he is my most loyal follower, every word I say, he hears like a god Sound, repeatedly figured out.

I only met him once or twice, and he put on this attitude... It's really weird.It stands to reason that I should be vigilant, but as long as I look into his eyes, there will be an indescribable sadness in my heart, and I can't be vigilant no matter what.I thumped my forehead, took a deep breath, and the strange sadness finally dissipated.

After a while, he asked, "You said, you've been away from home for too long...why? Did your family treat you badly?"

"No, my family is very kind to me. I came out to see the world by myself. I like to read books, but although the words are magical, they are not as good as what I saw with my own eyes. A woman's life is so boring, except for getting married and having children. I think Before getting married, take a look at the world."

He lowered his head, stroked the ruby ​​ring on his little finger, smiled, and did not speak.

His smile made me feel intensely sad again.For a moment, my throat was blocked, and my chest was also blocked, and I couldn't speak a word.By the time I could breathe smoothly, tears had flowed down in big ones, but they didn't merge into the sea water, but floated one by one in the sea water.I can't help feeling a little embarrassed.Lambert did not show a strange expression, but asked gently: "What's wrong?"

The intense sadness struck again, this time, it was heart-wrenching.Seeing more and more teardrops in the seawater, I was embarrassed and sad at the same time. I couldn't help covering my face, and said with a sob: "I, I don't know what's wrong... Your Majesty, the Second Majesty concluded a contract with me before." Blood contract, is there some side effect of this blood contract! Effect...I, I seem to want to cry when I see you...I-I can't stop."

"A blood contract will not cause this."

Awesome and even more embarrassing.

My eyes were red, I held my breath, and tried to swallow the choking, but not only could I not swallow it, I couldn't spit it out in one breath, and instead blocked my ears.It's all right now, tears blurred his vision, sobbed until he couldn't speak, and even his hearing became hazy.It's embarrassing to cry like this when nothing happened.

I don't know how long it has passed, maybe only a second or two, I looked up and met a pair of aggressive golden eyes.

A deep and cold voice echoed in my ears: "I have danced with many women, but none can compare to this dance with you."

After speaking, the man turned around and was about to leave.I sniffed and called out a name uncontrollably.In the hallucination, the man did not respond to me.But a reply quickly came from beside me: "I'm here." After waking up, I saw Lambert's concerned eyes and realized that I had called his name just now.

He stood beside me, bent down, patted the top of my head, and said almost helplessly, "Don't cry, Little Rose."

This night, Lambert did not leave.On the second day, no matter whether it was a fish or a human, they looked at me rather ambiguously.Who would have thought that this night, we did nothing.I cried uncomfortably all night, but he stayed with me quietly all night.I tried to persuade him to leave several times, but I couldn't say it no matter what.

I'm not one to run away from my feelings, even if they embarrass me.I have to admit, Lambert's presence was a comfort to me during times of unexplained sadness.

Could it be... I am really the first queen in history?
