she must be a fake
Duke Lauwin has always been an aristocrat who has the right to speak to the old king. He has several magicians under his command, who have always been feared by the old king.
It wasn't until he learned that the old king had married the powerful black witch in the Black Forest to the south that he put away a lot of crooked brains.
I thought that once the old king died, the young Snow White would be led by nobles like them if she could not get the support of her stepmother.
The result was just the opposite, and the black witch actually suggested that he should not use the pockets of the people.
The most outrageous thing is that not long after the old king died, the kingdom issued a tax reduction policy.
The lives of the other nobles including him were suddenly much sadder.
His wife, who can buy nearly a hundred dresses a month, has complained to him several times: "It's more than half of this month, and now I have bought less than [-] dresses!"
He contacted other nobles, and they also complained.
What can I do?His men may not be able to beat the Black Forest Witch.
Until the last few days, he secretly received a message about the princess's stepmother.
——The witch of the Black Forest has left the kingdom long ago, and the princess godmother in the castle is just a cover.
In order to verify the authenticity of the news, he sent someone to spend money to question the soldiers and attendants in the castle.
From their mouths, they learned that the temperament of the former queen, Fran Chesko, was very different from before.
She no longer scolded the maid, and her attitude towards the princess changed, even willing to become the princess' godmother.
He also found a merchant in the city. The merchant who sold medicinal materials told him that a certain important person in the castle always sent someone to buy certain medicinal materials from him. Until recently, the servant who bought the medicinal materials had never appeared.
After several investigations, Duke Lauwin became more and more convinced that the black witch left the country after the death of the old king.
The name in the castle was the princess who pretended to be someone to deceive others.
The more you think about it, the more reasonable it is.
So Duke Lauwin called other nobles to discuss, since the gold coins they deserved were deducted, they should use their brains from the rent of the untouchables.
"The witch in the castle is fake, that princess dare not interfere with us."
Even though they were taken to the castle together with Norton and Elser, Duke Lauwin still firmly believed in the authenticity of the Black Witch.
"This loyal servant of mine is the best at identifying magic. Once that impostor shows his feet, he will definitely be discovered." The man who said this was the Duke of Else in the west of the city, and a group of people followed behind him. A sorcerer with a large brim hat.
"I took a fancy to a painting not long ago. I thought I would be able to win it this month, but because of the damn tax policy, I missed it by a few bucks." The Marquis of Norton in the north of the city became more and more angry, " The princess is not very old and capable, so she even found a fake to deceive us."
While complaining, the three of them were led by the maid to the reception room of the Kingdom Castle.
When the door was opened from both sides, the three nobles were all stunned for a moment.
In the room surrounded by sofas and coffee tables on three sides, all the curtains were drawn.
Today is a cloudy and rainy day, and in the already dark castle, this room is even darker.
On the only sofa chair in the center of the room, an elegant lady stood facing the door in the darkness, calmly resting on a saucer, drinking tea from a porcelain cup.
"My lords, don't you plan to come in and talk?"
Two doors were closed from behind the three nobles, the last ray of light was taken away, and the room was plunged into darkness.
"This is..." Duke Lauwin was at a loss.
A black-blue flame lit up in the room, recreating some vision, and at the same time illuminating the woman in a long dress on the sofa.
The "fake" witch was as graceful and graceful as Duke Lauwin had seen last time.
It's not that he can't take this counterfeit after poking it out.
But soon, the source of the flame made him unable to laugh.
It does not exist in an oil lamp, but dances at a woman's fingertips.
The three nobles watched the woman put her fingertips close to the three candles on the coffee table, and the flames jumped up, illuminating the room.
"Why are you still staying at the door, don't you want to sit down?" The woman looked at them suspiciously, and pointed to the sofa in front of her and on her right.
"Hey, it's not that it's a risk..."
"Shh!"
The Marquis of Norton had just opened his mouth when he was interrupted by Duke Lauwin.
After the three of them sat down, the woman gently raised her hand, and the three teacups that were originally squeezed in the center of the coffee table were pushed to the three of them one by one by invisible magic power.
Duke Lauwin hurriedly looked at the expression of the magician Duke Else, and found that not only him, but also Else was asking with his eyes.
What I saw was the almost trembling hands of the magician.
"I heard that you have all increased the rental rent of your own assets recently?" The woman seemed not to notice their abnormality, and naturally picked up the teapot, ready to pour water.
"Ah... I'll do it." Marquis Norton had sensed that something was wrong, so he quickly took the teapot and poured tea for a few people.
He shouldn't have come to meddle in this kick.
"His Royal Highness..."
"Now I can no longer be called a queen." The woman corrected.
"...My lord." Marquis Norton immediately changed his words, "These are all misunderstandings, and those in charge of my shop made their own decisions. I will teach them a lesson when I get back!"
Duke Lauwin didn't expect Norton to see something wrong so quickly.
Didn't the forefoot still complain that they didn't buy famous paintings?
"Oh? So is there a misunderstanding on your part?" The woman showed a natural smile, and turned to look at the remaining two nobles, "His is a misunderstanding, what about yours?"
While speaking, Duke Else lowered his head and was about to drink tea when he suddenly noticed that the color of the tea was a bit strange.
It was clearly the sweet scent of tea, but the tea was black and red under the firelight.
——What the black witch is best at is preparing those deadly poisons.
This is what he heard a long time ago.
Thinking of the trembling hands of the sorcerer, Else's hand couldn't stop shaking, the teacup slipped and shattered to the ground, and the hot tea splashed on the back of his feet, making him shiver all over.
"Ah!" He hurriedly lowered his head to pick it up.
"I'll do it." The woman stopped him and bent down before him.
When he stood up and put the teacup in front of his eyes, Else noticed that the teacup, which should have been broken, had returned to its original state.
Elsie: "!"
"I... there is also a misunderstanding!" He hastily explained, "My manor is relatively large, and I need a lot of ingredients every day, so it is inevitable that I will miss it. return the money.”
"Then you should be more careful in the future." Mingming's tone was relaxed, but it sounded creepy to Elser's ears.
The teacup just now must have wanted to tell him—she can restore a broken teacup, and she can also crush a good person.
It must be like this.
In the blink of an eye, the two dukes and marquises had let go.
Duke Lauwin did not expect the result to be like this.
He only called them idiots in his heart. If the impostor the princess found was also a magician, wouldn't such a trick be easy to do?
"This is the tea I made specially, don't you drink it?"
Duke Lauwin lowered his head and took a sip of his tea. When he looked up, he found that both Norton and Elsie were madly making faces at him.
Then he followed their line of sight and looked down——
The woman's fingertips were tapping the coffee table lightly at this time, and along her slender fingers, a strange pattern was spreading towards their positions on the table.
"Duke Lauwin?" The woman called out his name, "What's going on with you? If this continues, our princess will be very troubled."
"Where I am..."
"Duke Lauwin must have misunderstood!" Duke Else answered the conversation for him first, and he squeezed his eyes hard, "Right, Lauwin?"
"That's right!" It was Marquis Norton who answered, and he couldn't wait to speak for Lauwin.
Lauwin:?
By the way, the sorcerer brought by Elsey.
Elser's position was [-] degrees to him, and he could see the magician standing behind Elser just by turning his head slightly.
At this time, the magician's pupils were dilated, and his whole body was trembling, almost unable to control his fear.
What is it that makes him so afraid?
Could it be that the rumors are all lies, and the person in front of him is a real black witch, not a fake.
An unspeakable coolness spread over Lao Wen's back.
"Since this is the case, it's okay." The woman put down the teacup in a cheerful tone, and the sound of the glass colliding with the glass made the three of them tremble in unison, "Then I'll tell the princess that it's all a misunderstanding, you go back."
After her words fell, someone suddenly said "ah" and ran out of the door.
It was the sorcerer brought by Elsey.
With his precedent, the remaining three nobles couldn't resist anymore, and left the parlor almost without looking back.
As soon as the three of them left, Fran pinched her neck, which was sore from being on the shelf for too long.
She only figured out the flame at her fingertips last night, and it took her a lot of effort just for such a small cluster of flames.
As for the magic of moving teacups, she broke almost a stack of plates before she could barely move a few teacups that were not filled with water along the table.
Just before the three came in, she was still practicing these two kinds of magic repeatedly. Because of this, she accidentally broke several teacups and saucers.
Fran wobbled her foot, and the heel touched the fragments of the teacup under the sofa.
In front of the original position of the Duke of Else, there was a small hole missing on the inconspicuous side of the teacup.
She knew it was impossible for this man to touch the teacup again, so she conveniently brought him a teacup that didn't fall badly while Hei was under the sofa.
Now she doesn't know any repairing magic.
The pattern on the table is just a little trick mixed with the change of the light source.
As for the person who looked like a magician, Fran didn't understand what she did to make him so afraid.
Outside the palace castle.
"Laowen, where did you get the news? It almost killed us!" Elsey still has lingering fears about the restored teacup.
"Could it be that she is really a black witch?" Lao Wen gradually realized that his guess was wrong.
"Elser, where's your sorcerer?" Norton couldn't control the painting now, and he was terrified, "Let him talk about it!"
Else swayed around, only to see the sorcerer who was so frightened that he almost climbed a tree in the woods outside the castle.
"I... I have never seen a black flame. Since I was a child, the magic I have learned is light magic. Hers must be a black magic flame from hell." The magician's lips are still trembling, "You see huh, the black shadow behind her, that's something that only demons can have."
demon?
When Lauwin looked up, he found that Norton and Elsie had already boarded the carriage. The coachman swung his whip, and the horse was about to fly.
Damn!
He also has to go back quickly to refund the overcharged rent!
