Soft music floats among the gardens, against the sound of gurgling water in the garden pool, and the afternoon sun shines from the shade of trees, cool and slightly warm.

There were bursts of restrained laughter, and the light knocking of cups and plates. Without looking at the picture, you can guess that this is probably the garden tea party most often held by noble ladies.

Since it was the beginning of autumn, the tea party for the second prince and concubine of the Hess Empire was held in the autumn garden of his prince's palace.The palace garden of the Prince's Palace is divided into four areas; spring, summer, autumn and winter, each occupying a corner.The gardens in each district have a large area and are planted with flowers and plants that bloom in different seasons, so that when visiting, you can avoid those dead trees and dead branches that are not in season.

In this season, layers of fiery red leaves decorate the autumn garden, which happens to be the favorite red of the second prince and princess, so she prefers to host garden tea parties in autumn than in other seasons.In addition, the autumn hunting is approaching, and she can also talk about the preparations and gossip of the royal family's autumn hunting, which is a very honorable thing among noble ladies.

But it stands to reason that the status of the second prince and concubine alone is more noble than some noble ladies around her.

But unfortunately, the whole empire knew that the current princess was a continuation, and they got married suddenly several years after the previous princess died of illness.And when the second prince's second son was born six months after the second prince reunited, everyone knew why the second prince broke the original image of being devoted to the original princess, and suddenly continued the string without saying a word.

What's even more strange is that the second prince has changed his previous image of caring for his family after the sequel, and has become merciful everywhere, relying on his handsome and melancholic temperament, which fascinated many widows and unmarried ladies at that time. Heart.

All of the above naturally made the second marriage of the second prince subject to malicious speculation from all walks of life.

Some people said that the second prince and concubine must have conceived by tricks, so that the second prince had to marry, which made it so absurd.But there are also people who think that the second prince was originally a romantic temperament, but the father of the former princess was a general at the time, and the man in charge of military power was extremely dignified. Dedicated image.

But no matter what, the status of the second prince and princess is really there. No matter what the noble ladies and ladies think in their hearts, they are still very polite to the second prince and concubine on the surface.In addition, the current turmoil of succession to the throne has greatly benefited the biological son of the second prince and concubine; that is, the second son of the second prince, Berlin Hess.

Because if the throne cannot be passed on to the only princess of the current Emperor Hess; Jane Elisel Hess, the second son of the second prince among all the heirs of the princes, can be considered a candidate for the succession to the throne.Even if the competition fails, the eldest son of the second prince, Gonza Hess, will finally inherit the throne, and the position of the second prince will have to fall to the second son.

Because of this, the second prince and concubine have been proud of themselves recently.Garden tea parties are held one after another.The purpose is not only to win the relationship with his son, but also to carefully select candidates for his wife.The shrewd princess knows that Berlin's future has unlimited possibilities at this moment. When the market is the best, she has to take the opportunity to choose a family with the best conditions to marry.

And what does the above have to do with Pound?Even if Berlin and Gonza were Pound's blood brothers, Pound didn't intend to recognize relatives.However, on this occasion, the "salesman" sent by Pound infiltrated it.

"Madame Mayfield*, last time you brought the amethyst hibiscus ointment for the tea party, I would like to order two more boxes... No, five boxes are ready, please send it over another day, please," shaking the incense A young lady in a light green dress from Fan said with a smile.

"Okay, Mrs. Alrock, five boxes of amethyst hibiscus ointment," Mrs. Mayfair smiled cordially.She doesn't need to take notes on paper. She is already familiar with ordering and entertaining at this kind of tea party, and she will never make a mistake in any order.

"Madam should get used to it." Madam Mayfair did not forget to praise, "I see that the fine lines around the eyes of Madam have decreased recently. I am not boasting. Apart from removing scars, this hibiscus ointment also has a very good effect. Moisturizing effect, after all, the medicinal materials here are all first-class."

"Hey, I think so too," Mrs. Alrock said happily, pressing the corners of her eyes, "especially according to what you said, after applying some hot compress at night, the effect is really good. I can't even notice it in summer. In autumn, I used to feel dry and tight, but this one is really much better.”

"That's good," Mrs. Mayfield echoed a few more words, then looked around, and suddenly whispered in a secret look, "Since Madam is sure of the medicinal effect of this hibiscus ointment, next, I have There are some rare gadgets, so I dare to report to my wife for a try..."

Mrs. Alroc was very curious when she saw that Mrs. Mayfair, who had been prudent before, had such an attitude.

"What rare thing?"

Mrs. Mayfield took him to a hidden place in the garden first, and then took out an exquisite small box.Instead of giving the box to Mrs. Alrock, she lifted the lid herself.I saw the exquisitely carved small box with the inner lining of the finest dark blue velvet.On the velvet cloth lay a crystal clear pink bead with faint fluorescent light.About the size of the tip of your thumb.

Seeing this appearance, Mrs. Alrock already liked it a little. "What is this? It looks so beautiful."

Mrs. Mayfair closed the lid of the box, and then she came to Mrs. Alrock's ear and introduced the things in a low voice.

Mrs. Alrock only heard half of it, her face was already pink, and she took a step back annoyed and helpless. "This, this is really rude!... Madam Mayfield! You, this is..."

But this is not the first time Mrs. Mayfield has introduced it; she has given away a lot before, so she naturally knows how to deal with it.

"Madam, don't make a fuss. In the eyes of the potion master, this is a kind of treatment, the same as removing scars and blemishes. I am willing to mention this to my wife because I see that my wife believes in me. Otherwise, this is better than hibiscus ointment." The medicine, which is still precious, is regarded as a vulgar love potion and lost, I feel very distressed."

Seeing that Mrs. Alrock's face was still changing, Mrs. Mayfair continued, "Besides, from my experience, the happiness between husband and wife is a matter of each other. If you don't put some thought into it, can someone else do it? I often I miss the guy who has passed away, and think that I should treat him better at that time, how about having more children? I’m not afraid that he will leave me early,” he sighed after finishing speaking.

When she heard the word "child", Mrs. Alrock was really shaken. "You said... this medicine can help you get pregnant?"

Mrs. Mayfair patted Mrs. Alrock's hand, "If the night is much more fulfilling, are you afraid that your stomach will not be full?"

Mrs. Alrock blushed, and after struggling for a while, the wary expression finally dissipated, "The issue of sons and heirs is more important, I will try..." Then she remembered that there was only one in the box, Can't help but ask, "However, only one is enough?"

"One is only for one night. This is for my wife to try first. If you need it later..."

Mrs. Mayfield smiled mysteriously.

The advertisement of "Midnight Gem" in the capital was played secretly and hotly, and Pound was staying obediently in Sol's research room at this time.

Thor was reading the scroll brought by Pound with surprise and nostalgia; it was Deep Water who entrusted Pound to bring it to Master Sol.

Pound waited quietly.The research room still looks like it was visited a year ago. The space with strong coexistence and contrast of light and dark is filled with a unique smell from the old scrolls. Time seems to have stagnated in this space.

This reminded Pound, comparing his state of mind when he stepped here for the first time with his current state... It was only then that he was a little surprised that so many changes had taken place in him in the past year; he did not refer to magic power The level or the amount of gold coins are all about the state of mind.The pressure of being forced to move forward in the past seems to have calmed down a lot... Maybe because he is no longer alone, he can be sure that there is funk behind him, even hair balls and gold.

And this change in attitude, in the eyes of Sol, who has lived for a hundred years, can be seen clearly.Sol looked up from the scroll, met Pound's expression, and sighed with a smile, "After playing outside for a year, it seems that you have gained a lot."

When Pound came back to his eyes, he was a little surprised, but he hadn't said anything to Sol, "What does the teacher mean?"

Thor didn't point out what he really found, but only raised the scroll. "Here is the light-type healing spell mentioned here. Combined with Shen Shui's description of his illness, I guess, if the healing spell is lower than level nine, it won't work?"

It is indeed difficult to conceal one's strength in front of Grandmaster.Pound blinked and said honestly, "Students have some adventures."

"Oh, an adventure..." Sol's blushing eyebrows moved, "You don't have to tell me about this old man, as long as he comes back safely, he is my student after all, and Sham Shui also needs me to take good care of him You... hey, it doesn't matter if you say it or not..."

Pang De couldn't help black line, labeling him as a teacher and student, which doesn't mean he wants to say it himself.

But thinking about it carefully, the handbook on the application of dual-element elements that Sol gave saved his life by the lake.After learning that he could control the three series of elements before, Sol did not publicize it for his own benefit, and even sorted out his experience and shared it with others.When encountering such a teacher, why should we take more precautions?

So Pound smiled, "If the teacher wants to know, of course."

Then, it started from the beginning when I met the meditation scroll.

Sol did not expect that this one joke would bring Pound a series of real "adventurous encounters".The more I listened to this journey, the more amazed I became. Even Pound said that Sol immediately triggered the light element test.When it comes to the healing method of deep water, even Sol can't help but praise that the use of this kind of meditation is simply extremely flexible! !

Saul, who met Xinzhi, looked like a lively young man at the moment, with bright eyes.

"Hey, so there is a reason why you were able to induce the elements of the three series so evenly before! But you have made great progress, and I, the old man, have not been left behind," Sol proudly took out another A scroll.

"Come on, let's see! Compared with the use of the previous two-element elements, during this period, I have thought carefully about the possibility of combining the three elements. It is exactly the three elements of light, water, and earth that you know! Take it quickly. Go back and have a look, one month... no, come back in two weeks and we'll discuss!"

Thor lightly handed out the scroll, but after a moment of surprise, Pound took it solemnly.

Perhaps multi-system elements are a brand-new research field, so Sol is willing to delve into it, but it is undeniable that this kind of research can only be used by Sol, who can only induce light systems.In other words, this kind of research is only for myself at this stage...

The last sliver of defense dissipated, and Pound pressed his heart and was moved, grinning at the slightly excited Sol, "Thank you, teacher, but now I am a magician of all elements."

"...what horse!?" Saul paused and stared.

Pound innocently pointed out, "My story is not over yet."

"You, why did you give homework again! I am clearly the teacher!"

***

Pound stayed in Saul's research room for almost a whole day, and was released in the evening.

But before leaving, Pound did not forget to obtain Sol's assurance that there would be no problem with resuming school, including Master Alvato of the Mageweave Academy.It's just that when Sol heard that Pound still wanted to learn the magic pattern, he couldn't help muttering, this whole series of magicians is enough to study for seven lifetimes (there are seven elements), so there is no time to care about the magic pattern.

Pound ignored it, left the gift (golden magic stone ring) and said that he had to go home to take care of the child, which made Saul have no time to make a fuss about the gift, and was busy shouting to Pound who was rushing to leave, remember next time Bring the whole family.

Pound waved his hand and said goodbye to Saul briskly.When I got home that night, I found that Funk was full of hair, as if he had just gone to the old man's training before.At this time, the baby hairball was staying in Funk's arm, sticking out his little tongue to lick those wounds, and Goldo was obediently helping Jacob, who was applying medicine to Funk.

Pound tilted his head amusingly, "Why are you still being beaten so badly?" Didn't he go to give gifts?

Funk also went to see Master De Luca today to send a scroll; that is, that fart old man.

Funk grinned, "Oh, I'm afraid there aren't enough gifts, so I gave the old man an extra box of meatballs."

That meatball refers to the "Midnight Gem" that will be popular among the nobles of the empire in the future.

The author has something to say: *Mrs. Mayfield: 7th place in the potion competition, one of the potion masters who cooperated with Pound 0.0
