[Fate] Box and Servant

Chapter 10 What You Call Love

The king in silver armor and a crimson cloak rode a white horse all the way from the castle to the entrance of the forest. The hearty laughter of the knights attracted the peasant girls to look at them. If you don't want to wait in the castle, you have to come to pick up the princess in person.

Arthur Pendragon shook his head with a smile. His smile was as warm as the setting sun, and his voice was even more beautiful. The peasant girls stood far away, wearing bright dresses for this spring day, like a cluster of The wild flowers clustered around each other have a special charm, but the king didn't give them a gentle look or wave to them.The peasant girls didn't care, they knew that today was a big day, and their handsome king would marry a beautiful princess to become the queen of the country.

"My lord, you walked in such a hurry that you didn't see Mr. Merlin's face. It's rare for him to show such a helpless expression." A knight said, raised his hand to touch the neck of his steed, and said, "A look of hesitation and reluctance. It’s really interesting that Mr. Merlin will show such an expression only because of you!”

"Really, I don't care." The king of knights looked at the entrance of the forest motionless, ah, his eyes were as green as green mountains but extremely clear, as if he was holding a pool of clear water, blinking There was sparkling water in the room, he chuckled a few times, and said: "I insisted on marrying Guinevere, he is more or less a tempered person, and I don't blame him for being angry. You know, I am right. Guinevere fell in love at first sight, besides, her father is a man I respect, and the daughter he brought up with a happy nature, I believe she is an excellent woman, ah, here she is."

Arthur Pendragon stopped to explain, clamped the horse's belly, and stopped after a few steps. There were tall trees on the left and right sides of the forest path, covered with branches and leaves. The blonde beauty was not sitting in the carriage, but Riding a brown-red horse, the horse's hooves stepped on the path like a small drum, hitting the beauty's heart one after another. At this time, the clouds were blown away by the wind, and the golden sunlight happened to pass through the layers of tender green leaves and fell on her. On the white lily-like skirt, mottled, as if dyed with a little green pattern, it is really beautiful.

A head of thick golden curly hair as soft as a cloud hangs obediently, and slides down from the shoulders to the chest with the movement of the horse. The fair skin at the collarbone makes people unable to move their eyes away. The king on horseback waiting for her arrival, her husband.Before she got off the horse, he saw the blond young man walking towards her with agility. He raised his scaled hand and held her rein, patted the brown-red pony's neck soothingly, and then Then he raised his head, smiling like a crystal clear gem, shining with dazzling and seductive light, falling into the lake of her heart, splashing water in an instant, making her heart seem to have a deer running continuously.

The temperature from the palm of her hand was not comfortable, and the armor was always cold, but Guinevere didn't care, King Arthur's gentle and gentlemanly actions made the blood in her whole body boil, and a faint blush floated on her tender face. After standing still, she couldn't help but lower her head, and put the back of her hand against the side of her face with a smile.Her shy behavior fell into the eyes of King Arthur. The girl wore beautiful braids, and the journey was very boring, so she picked a few beautiful wild flowers along the way, and asked the maid to insert them in the braids, and the hair around the circle The braid now looks like a wreath, and in King Arthur's heart she is a fairy who rides a horse from the forest and slowly meets his eyes.

King Arthur took her hand and dropped a soft kiss on her fingertips, which was so soft, like petals passing by. He stretched out his hand and wrapped Guinevere's blond hair hanging on her shoulders around his fingertips, saying : "Finally waiting for you, my princess, my only wife in this world."

Then King Arthur kissed her lightly on the forehead again, the warm breath seemed to blow on her heart, and kissed away all her anxiety. She was still a young girl like a delicate lily in spring, a breeze and a little rain A few rays of sunshine can make her love blossom.

The days after the wedding were even more beautiful like a fairyland. Perhaps in order to show consideration for the busy king, the knights laughed and pushed him out of the meeting room, allowing King Arthur to spend more time with his newly married princess.

King Arthur rode a tall horse, put her in his arms, and took her through the green mountains and rivers, and led her to listen to the songs of elves and watch the dance of fairies. He raised his hand, and the magic of wind rolled up the flower field. The wild flowers fluttering in the air, like colorful rainbows, she couldn't help reaching out to touch, the magic that was obviously used for fighting didn't hurt her fingertips at all, and the warmth flowed into her heart , when she turned around with a smile, she saw Arthur holding a delicate red rose and gently putting it on her braid. Guinevere knew that King Arthur loved her blonde hair very much. He couldn't help stretching out his hand to play with the long hair around his fingertips, and sometimes he even leaned close to his ear and said to her: "Touching the long hair that shines in the sun, my princess, this is You brought me some of the best memories of the summer, and that's something I'm proud of."

Ah, what a beautiful day.Every day, she listened to King Arthur's love words and drank cup after cup of honey water. Love made her more beautiful, and she was a delicate rose when she was cared for.

However, the flowering period is short.

She gradually realized that King Arthur spent less and less time with her. She knew that King Arthur was busy with state affairs, but what was he busy with? Where did the constant love talk and the sadness in his heart come from?Guinevere didn't know, and she never wanted to.

That is a man's world. As a princess, she doesn't need to pay attention to these bad things.But her king, her husband, devoted all his love to her to state affairs, and left her alone in this palace, even those lingering nights were gone.

Whenever she saw King Arthur on the throne, she felt mixed feelings. Such a fine and handsome man belonged to her, but not, ah, he belonged to this country. The noble and aloof temperament she admired has also changed.This is not the love Guinevere is after, God, why give her such a good start?

Guinevere thought of Lancelot who had taken her from her father at the beginning, the first knight who had a melancholy temperament even when he laughed, he was so tall and mighty that people would be frightened, but he was So gentle, close and understanding.

His eyebrows are like a heart lock, which is untied every time because of her. Guinevere's delicate and beautiful face is reflected in the purple eyes, and Lancelot smiles for her.

Lancelot said to her, princess, you are the most beautiful rose.

Yes, she is the most beautiful flower, and flowers cannot lack rain and dew, and cannot lose the fascination of butterflies and bees.

Guinevere, what are you after?When she looks at the tough face of the purple-haired knight, she will often ask herself this question, and then Lancelot will tell her many interesting and moving stories in his deep and gentle voice, and accompany her tirelessly When you get old, accompany her to experience the changes in life.

Ah, this is what Guinevere was after.

The only true love, what she needs is a man who gives completely.

This King Arthur can't do it, he belongs to the throne because he cares about the country.King Arthur is her husband, her only husband, the blazing sun hanging in the sky, the lonely king in people's hearts, but never her lover.

What a woman wants is nothing more than a lifelong love.She got glory in Arthur and found her heart in Lancelot.

Stupid Guinevere didn't know that sex and love could be separated. She didn't refuse King Arthur's kiss, but accepted his warmth and love, and moaned and groaned under him.Lovely but cannot be separated from sex, the more she loves, the more itchy her heart becomes. This is the temptation of sin, the temptation of man, and the punishment of love. She finally swallowed the forbidden fruit with Lancelot.

God is keenly aware of the changes in Eve and Adam, and they cannot escape the accusations they deserve for their violation of morality.Rumors spread everywhere, and the knights all learned of her love with Lancelot, which was a dirty existence in the eyes of the world.

Guinevere and Lancelot are reluctant to leave, but the forest path is so short, they must part at last, love is sweet, love is painful.

Love made her infamous, and the glory that belonged to her disappeared.Every word of the innocent and unabashed little nun pierced her heart deeply. Guinevere, who had been loved since she was a child, collapsed. Her husband fought for her against Lancelot, the man she loved. .At the same time, it was also because of her that King Arthur was outnumbered and his hearts scattered like fine sand.

When King Arthur came to see her, the nuns shouted: "The king is coming!" The sound made her skull ache, and she walked towards her room step by step. Ah, the sound of this armor is so familiar, she used to pay for it every night. This wait.

Guinevere lay prone on the ground, trembling, her thin shoulders and snow-white arms made people feel affectionate, she still looked so beautiful, her golden hair like a cloud was scattered on the ground like a waterfall, and the moonlight fell, giving off a faint glow. halo.

King Arthur did not forgive her because of this. Her beauty was already the shame and pain of King Arthur. Her handsome face, which had not changed for many years, lost her smile. of sins stated.He was heartbroken but also angry. According to Christ's will, Guinevere should be swallowed by fire, but he couldn't.

King Arthur said to Guinevere: "You must be surprised, I still love you." These words made Guinevere lift up, knelt on the ground and looked up at her husband, and then King Arthur said : "Lancelot killed many of my warriors, and I should not have forgiven him for that, but he, my first knight, my bravest warrior, and the noblest friendship I have, if he chooses You must have his reasons. Just as I cannot throw you into the fire, I am also powerless to cut off his head. He is still in his own castle at this time. If you want to find him, go, I will not stop it, but Guinevere, I will deprive you of all the glory I bestow on you, and you will be infamous forever, the war you caused and the life in my hands are all related to you." The blond young man lowered his eyes, pity but Looking at his wife coldly, what a pitiful appearance, just like a rose in a storm makes people feel pity, Arthur trembled his lower lips, and said: "I will definitely remember the pain you gave me. From the pain of love."

Guinevere's eyes were empty, as if she was meditating on something, what she heard was the sound of the night wind blowing the golden dragon banner, and the night dew deeply moistened her skirt, an indescribable feeling gushed out from her heart, As it became stronger and more bitter, Guinevere laughed out loud. She stood up, looked directly at the great King Arthur, the fierce sun who made her feel unattainable, and said, "Do you love me? Do you love me?" Are you looking at me, Arthur?" She tilted her head with an innocent and seductive look, this is her most beautiful smile, her blond hair is like flowing gold, and her alluring appearance was once the pride of Arthur.

King Arthur never lied, and said coldly: "I love you, Guinevere."

"No, this is not love, Arthur!" Guinevere laughed and trembled all over, and the nuns at the side felt chills down their backs. They had never seen this lady like this before. After a while, Guinevere The child laughed and burst into tears, and said: "Do you know why I have an affair with Lancelot, my husband? Not because of his excellence and beauty, but because of you!" The fingertips that had been gently kissed were ruthless Pointing pointedly at King Arthur, she continued: "Because you don't understand love, King Arthur, my great husband, my great king! You are the blazing sun hanging in the sky, I can't look at it and I can't have it! What you love in your heart is This country, not me! I can't do it, I can't do it without caring, I don't have the same noble character and aloof heart as you, I can't bear loneliness, I yearn for love in the world! And these, you You can't even give it to me, King Arthur. The most ridiculous thing is that you say you love me, even now!"

King Arthur frowned, and the knights standing behind couldn't hold back any longer. They all wanted to cover this crazy woman who spoke wildly, but Arthur didn't even move, and Guinevere accused him.

"If you love me, why did you let Lancelot go? If you love me, why did you spare me and let me go to find Lancelot? Arthur, no, King Arthur, my king, you should be I really don't understand people's hearts, the love you know is the love in the Bible, you don't understand the love in the world, you don't!" Guinevere panted for a while, she straightened her back, and smiled enchantingly, even if the love at this time She was not wearing a gorgeous dress, and she was still too beautiful. She said: "Love is not a long-lasting patience. Love can be jealous, love can be angry, love is a sweet sin! You are very different from my love, Poor King Arthur, why didn't you listen to Merlin, you shouldn't have married me, you shouldn't have embraced me as a misfortune. You see, you have lost so much, and I must be infamous forever, poor you, poor I...I love you and hate you! It's ridiculous!"

"I don't understand people's hearts..." King Arthur's eyes sank a little, like the spring water in the middle of the night, covered with a layer of mist, dark and cold, unable to figure it out.This is the first time I've heard someone say that he doesn't understand people's hearts, and that the lonely king who won't grow old is like a character in a myth, how can he understand people's hearts.But at this moment, he heard this sentence from his beloved princess again, ah, Guinevere is right, maybe he really doesn't understand, he has not yet become the perfect king in the hearts of his people , so he stepped into a desperate situation, he sighed softly, and said: "Farewell, Guinevere, my former princess, may you be happy."

In this thick night fog, the king's never-aged face was shrouded in a halo, like a holy angel, and the banners symbolizing power rattled on his left and right sides. Leaving in the depths, the moonlight dyed the fog curtain, layer by layer, with the sound of horseshoes, the silver-white fog finally covered the king's figure.

She can no longer see, Guinevere will never see King Arthur again, the time when she first married Arthur flashed in her mind, it was so beautiful and infatuated, now thinking of it is like a fairyland, Guinevere Her pale lips trembled, as if she had suddenly realized that she opened her arms as if she wanted to keep the disappearing figure, but what was in her arms was only the coldness of the night, and a mournful scream sounded, the proud and conceited ex-queen Calling Arthur's name.

"Arthur——!" The voice stopped abruptly, just like the first time.

She is like a rose whose flowering period is short.
