What to do if your crush is the Earl

The Lost Garden is located in the western suburbs of City V. Although it is called the Lost Garden, it is actually a rather large garden castle.

Three centuries ago, Prince Tenner built this castle here. It is said that it was built for his beloved princess. The design was designed by the prince himself and supervised the construction, so it is also passed down as a good story.

Later, the Prince of Jersey rebelled, and the empire no longer assigned the title of prince. The story of Prince Tenner and the Queen has still become a beautiful legend that has been passed down for generations.

Three centuries later and several generations passed, the castle fell to the common people, and now it is the property of Mayor V's government, open to the public for tours.

Martin and Xiao Sheng walked around the castle for a long time.

The style of this castle is completely different from that of the Acropolis in the middle of the empire and Fancheng. The main building has a high floor height, but the windows are narrow and high, which leads to dark lighting on the indoor ground and creates a different feeling for the castle. atmosphere of.

On the wall of the corridor leading to the bedroom, there are some unknown paintings, some of which look like scribbled graffiti, or sketches drawn by hand.

Some of the people walking around the castle didn't pay much attention.

The Earl did the opposite. He took Xiao Sheng's monocle, raised it up with one hand, and studied the painting very seriously.

"..." Xiao Sheng stared quietly for a while, but couldn't hold back, and said:

"Sir, those glasses..." are just decorations, not magnifying...

"What's the matter?—Hey, this spelling..." Martin found a shallow pencil mark in the lower right corner of the painting, "El?" It seems to be a personal name.

who?

E.

Appleton?

Edward?

"It's Eli." Xiao Sheng said.

"Huh? Eli?" Martin read for a while, and then carefully looked at the imprint in the corner, "ELi, yes! There is an i that is fading away in the corner!"

He was a little surprised, turned around and asked, "How do you know?"

"Eli is Prince Tenner's chief of guard."

"Huh?" How do you know?

"Prince Tenner's princess has never been seen in front of the world."

"Ah...?" Martin's expression was even more confused, so do these two things have anything to do with these paintings?

"So Eli is Prince Tenner's princess." Xiao Sheng said calmly.

Martin blinked twice.

Blinked twice more.

boom--

A muffled thunder struck down from the sky.

Martin: "..."

He recovered from the shock of hearing the news, and finally recovered his rational questioning spirit, and said softly and gently: "Baby, is this just your guess?"

Hearing the name Xiao Sheng blushed a little, he explained: "The painting that can be hung in such a private place leading to the bedroom is absolutely impossible to be some random graffiti. It must be, the owner is very precious things, for example, the princess's own painting."

Martin nodded: "It's very reasonable, but how did you guess the name, and Eli is Prince Tenner's head of guard?" This kind of detail is so detailed that it makes people doubt that he has experienced everything in person. It's terrible.

Xiao Sheng smiled, glanced at Lord Martin faintly, and successfully turned him off.

Martin shuddered, and patted the goose bumps on his body: "Don't say that you are the princess's previous life..."

Xiao Sheng endured it, but couldn't hold it back, and laughed very happily.

"Hahahahaha..."

Martin had never seen him smile like this before: his eyes narrowed slightly, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows fluttered, and the brilliant sunlight fell on his pale cheeks and danced like notes of a piece of music.

He was gradually infected, with a faint smile on his face.

"Sir, I..." Xiao Sheng recovered his breath, his face was a little red from laughing just now, and he was very bright, and he handed over something, "I saw this because I have to say, yours The imagination is too rich."

The plain white hand spread out, and there was a letter on it, which looked very old.

"Just found it in another room."

It was a utility room that was not often visited by people. It had been dusty for many years, and there was dust everywhere.

Martin went in because he wanted to find some strange antiques.Xiao Sheng followed him, but he didn't pay attention to Martin. He saw a small bottle preserved in wax oil in the corner.

Driven by curiosity and strange inspiration, he took out the bottle.

"Inside is this letter." Xiao Sheng said, "It says: 'If a hundred years have passed, please open it and read it.'"

Martin took the letter and looked around.

The letter had been sealed in the bottle for a long time, and it was crumpled, but this did not prevent Martin from reading the writing on it.

Not very long, two pages.

The surrounding environment was strangely quiet.

-

"...I just want to speak out about this matter. No matter who I see, it has nothing to do with us whether they will make this matter public or bring it into the next grave. We just want to have at least one Only later generations will know. Thank you for reading this letter to the end. Stranger, best wishes to you.

— Tanner. "

Martin read the letter without saying a word.

This is a personal letter from Prince Tenner.

"That's why." Martin sighed, "Tianna and Eli admire each other, but they can't be known by the world. Tanner found someone to play the princess, but felt ashamed of Eli all his life."

Xiao Sheng nodded: "But at least they are together, together for the rest of their lives."

Martin looked at Xiao Sheng, and found something shiny in those black eyes, he smiled: "Let's go outside and have a look."

maze.The real maze is actually outside the castle.

"The Garden of Lost Gardens was also designed by Tanner. Judging from just now, it is estimated that it was also given to him as a 'dear princess'." Martin explained.

Xiao Sheng didn't reply.

A tall, manicured hedge of plants covers the entire lawn.

There is only one entrance.

It read: "Only one road leads to the final destination."

"It's interesting." With a faint smile on his face, Martin stretched out his hand to invite Xiao Sheng, "Do you want to go in with me?"

Xiao Sheng's heart beat faster, he looked around, and held that hand.

They are not the only ones in the maze.People kept walking past them.But the two of them were very close to each other, holding hands wrapped in the Earl's cloak, the people around couldn't see it.

Many of the plants planted beside the road are tall rosemary shrubs. This kind of plant is full of emerald green, and the leaves are slender and clustered with small fleshy strips, which have a special fragrance.

In the imperial banquet, rosemary is the finest plant spice.

This place was actually used as a fence for the maze garden, which shows that Prince Tanner is rich and deeply loves the princess.

There are several forks in the maze in the middle, and the two always choose a path tacitly.

"Maybe what we found is the final correct path." Martin laughed.

Xiao Sheng nodded.In fact, no matter whether the path is correct or not, it is enough for him to follow this person.

The two looked at each other and smiled slightly.

The Earl was full of confidence, his heart beat faster as he was tainted by the fragrance in the air, and felt that he must be the winner who found the finish line.

Finally, after turning a corner, the Earl looked over in surprise, and in front of him was...

A wall of flowers.

The Earl was completely stunned.

The small white climbing roses are bright pink, covering the entire vertical wall, but there is no way out for the next step.

This is a dead end.

Xiao Sheng smiled softly: "It seems wrong, sir."

Martin was very depressed, sighed, came to Qiangwei, and studied it based on the principle of not coming in vain.

"It is a variety that blooms in early spring. It was developed by the botanist Dockley at the end of the last century. It has double petals, and the flowers are white and beautiful."

Xiao Sheng approached, still with a smile on his face: "Mr. is really knowledgeable."

A small white petal fell from Martin's hair, trembling gently on the blond hair.

When Xiao Sheng saw it, he stretched out his hand, and with Bai Jie's fingers, he picked off the little petal.

In the next second, they were turned over and leaned against the wall, and many small petals were shaken off, and a white mist of flowers floated around the two of them.

Xiao Sheng's black hair and black eyes fell on the wall of white roses, and he looked at each other helplessly.

The Earl put one hand behind him, gently cushioning him, looking at Xiao Sheng with gentle and deep-set eyes:

"I wasn't comforted."

Xiao Sheng's eyelashes flickered slightly, and he had no other way to deal with some coquettish men: "Then what do you want, sir?"

Martin didn't speak, but his arms around him were tightened, and the two slowly approached.

As for why the hand is pillowed behind, because roses have thorns.

Xiao Sheng was soft-hearted and slowly closed his eyes.

"..."

"……what."

Xiao Business Xiangzhong's kiss did not fall for a long time. He opened his eyes and saw the earl stretching out a hand and touching the flower wall behind him.

He turned his head to look, and found that the wall that was parted by the Earl revealed the background color of the stone.

"Stone wall?"

The surrounding walls and hedges are full of plants, but a stone wall appears here.

The two looked at each other, and both saw the difference in each other's eyes.

"The so-called end is here, right?"

The Earl put on black gloves and groped around the wall.

Sure enough, after a while.The stone door shook slightly.

With a deep whining sound, the roses entwined on it began to slowly shrink to the sides, and the branches rolled.

By the time the two felt that something was wrong and wanted to avoid it, the stone wall had slowly fallen towards them.

"—Sir, be careful!!!"

Xiao Sheng reacted quickly and rushed over to protect Martin.

——Boom...

The two of them fell to the ground in embarrassment, looking at the stone door that tore the vines and fell down after the smoke billowed.

"..."

"..."

If Martin remembers correctly, this kind of door is recorded in Mechanism Strange Armor Art, but it is generally pushed back or retracted to both sides.

"So... this... this door is broken."

They are the organs that have been opened for a long time and have not been opened.

Didn't you say that many people have been to the end?

Xiao Sheng worriedly checked whether there was any injury on Martin's body, and was helped by Martin: "I'm fine."

He looked behind Shimen.

It was a stone chamber with a dozen or so steps down to a lower ground.

The entrance of the entire stone room is surrounded by dense plants. From a distance, it may be regarded as an ordinary tree in the bushes. No wonder no one has found it for so long.

"Shh~ I'll go down and have a look." Martin made a small gesture, took out the match that he carried with him from the inner pocket of his clothes, and lit it.

"My lord!" Xiao Sheng obviously objected.
