The Duke in the Spire of Thorns

Chapter 29 "What does that have to do with me?"

Every family has their own private room in the Green Opera House, and Darth Vaco is no exception.Miss Darthwick has reserved this box all the year round, and even though she seldom went out to the theater, her father still pays the full deposit every year.

Duke Darthwick is very wealthy, and the interior of the box is also magnificently decorated. This small box is just like a microcosm of his wealthy life.

Celeste sat down on the soft couch, and Miss Darthwick was sitting in front of him, with a pair of emerald green eyes that seemed to be full of affection.

Celeste: "... Escrito?"

He yelled uncertainly, was a little shaken, and wanted to run away: the person sitting in front of him seemed to be swallowing him down with his eyes.

"it's me."

"Miss Darthwick" blinked, and said in Celeste's familiar voice, "What's the matter, aren't you used to it?"

"It's quite uncomfortable."

Celeste touched his arm, he was pretty sure it was covered in goose bumps.

Escrito put his arms around Celeste, let him lean on himself comfortably, and said softly: "I have prepared some desserts, if you want, you can taste them before the show begins."

But Celeste doesn't want to eat any dessert now, his stomach is already full of bewilderment.

"how did you do it."

Celeste asked curiously: "Aren't you afraid of being seen through?" He reached out to touch Escrit's face, thinking he would touch a layer of white powder or something else, but in fact, this The unfamiliar face didn't feel any strange to the touch, it was just a face, soft, warm, with smooth skin.

Escrito reached out and held Celeste's fingertips, guiding him to touch his jaw, where Celeste felt a slight depression.Afterwards, he heard Escrit's extremely calm voice: "Duke Darthwick is traveling abroad now, and Miss Darthwick stays at home all day long, doesn't ask for any news, and forbids servants to speak in front of her." Saying the news, it's the best option."

In fact, there were many loopholes in Escrit's words. After all, the nobles were always well-informed, and Miss Darthwick was just pious, not stupid.No matter how much she doesn't want to have contact with the outside world, she will come forward to deal with it under the premise that her identity is impersonated.

But now it has been several days, and Briarson has never kept a secret. Even the rats in the sewer knew about Miss Darthwick's appearance at Duke Ulysses' ball, but everything Still calm, nothing happened.

This is extremely abnormal, but Celeste doesn't understand these unspoken rules very well. Although he also received noble education since childhood, there are some things that cannot be taught, so he can only learn by himself in reality.However, due to his physical condition, he has only a handful of opportunities to interact with other people, so of course he doesn't understand these things.I thought that Escrit had made a seamless and perfect plan.

"And this." Escrit gently lifted the thing covering his face, and said lightly: "It's just a layer of skin."

Celeste withdrew his hand abruptly, and just when he was about to start getting scared, Escrito explained in time: "This is a product of alchemy, not human skin."

He chuckled lightly, and his low voice combined with the ordinary female appearance sounded a bit strange and treacherous: "Please don't be afraid."

Celeste still believed in her own knight commander, and immediately accepted this explanation.He was taken care of by the other party and began to enjoy dessert, and from time to time, he chatted with Escrit.

The box is semi-open, and their every move can be seen by others. Princess Nali put down the small telescope in her hand with a gloomy expression. This telescope was originally used to watch the show, but now she is using it to observe To the every move of the two people in the van.

She watched the two people leaning close together, chatting and laughing like two little birds huddled together in a nest, the anger in her heart rushed straight to the top of her head, and she almost fainted, she took a small salt shaker and sniffed and sniffed again, before she managed to calm down .

Rodal sat beside her, with sympathy in his tone: "Your Highness, look, I didn't lie to you."

As she said that, she became filled with righteous indignation again: "Obviously everyone in Briarson knows that you are the fiancee of His Excellency the Duke, but that Darthwick is shamelessly trying to steal her love, it is simply too shameless! "

Princess Nali was already very angry, but now that she said this, she felt even more unbearable. Her anger was mixed with a trace of grievance and regret. If she hadn't been ill, Darth Werco would not have been able to steal her limelight.

She ignored Rodal, she knew what Rodal was thinking, she raised the small binoculars again, and the magnified picture made her chest heave with anger.

That damn Darthwick was feeding cherries to her dear Hill!

The two were happy and happy, with smiles on their faces.

Although Princess Nali is said to be a princess, her status is somewhat embarrassing. She is not the daughter of the previous king, but the daughter of the cousin of the previous king. Because her father died early and her mother died of lung disease, The previous king adopted her.

The previous king treated her really well, sometimes even better than his own son Noyce, and every time she had a conflict with Noyce, the king would stand by her side.For a while, she was mad to prove that she was the king's own daughter, but the cold truth told her that she was not.

No, it’s not, that’s okay, anyway, the king treats her very well, so Princess Nali doesn’t want to investigate further, but in the end, she realized that her own child is her own child after all, even though her age is relatively Da, the eldest princess, is also qualified to inherit the throne, but the king still passed the throne to Neuss.

And because of the frequent conflicts since childhood, although it is not a big deal, the relationship between her and Noyce can't get better.As soon as the previous king died, Noyce gave her a manor and asked her to live outside the palace.

Where is an unmarried princess who doesn't live in a palace?Noyce is just too much!

She felt deeply humiliated, and was so angry that she stayed in bed for a long time. When Celeste left Briarson, she couldn't get up to send her off. At that time, she had a comfort, thinking that if she died, at least she could still Accompanied by Celeste.Unexpectedly, his illness was cured.Princess Nali has hope, and her spirit is getting better every day, but unexpectedly, before she has time to meet Celeste, she will be robbed of her love by someone.

She had been ill for a long time, but her temper did not diminish by half. She raised her hand and smashed the small telescope, and then said to Rodal: "You, go and ask Duke Ulysses to come over, just say that his dear sister misses him very much, Want to meet him."

Rodal doesn't think it's a good job, but she doesn't dare to refuse, considering the way Princess Nali smashed the telescope just now, if she refuses, no one can say whether Princess Nali will do something to her .

Even though Princess Nali's status is embarrassing now, she is still a royal family after all, and she can't afford to offend her at all.

Since you want to play, let's do it to the end, Rodal put on a naive look of righteous indignation, stood up and said: "Don't worry, Your Royal Highness, I'll go right away."

Her water-green skirt swayed on the carpet, and she left quickly. Princess Nali stared at the opposite box, and not long after, she saw Rodal appear in the box.

She wanted to see more clearly, so she bent down and picked up the small telescope on the ground, but because she dropped the telescope on the ground very hard just now, the lenses on it were broken and could no longer be used.

Princess Nali was so angry that she smashed the telescope in her hand again.

Soon, the play opened. Today's play is "The Scarlet Kingdom". The red velvet curtain slowly opened to both sides. Celeste picked up a small telescope and planned to watch the play seriously.

However, at this moment, there was a knock on the door of their private room.

Celeste stood up dissatisfied, and Escrito gently pressed his shoulder: "Please let me go."

"That won't do."

Celeste picked up the broken hair beside his ear, and said in a low voice: "Honey, have you forgotten that now you are not my knight commander, you are Miss Darthwick, if you are asked to open the door, Then what have I become?"

He seated Escrit and opened the door.

"Hello."

Standing outside the door was a strange young lady, her fair cheeks had a faint pink blush, she seemed very embarrassed, she curtseyed politely, and said softly: "Please forgive my intrusion. "

"Princess Nali asked me to invite you. She said that she misses you very much and wants to meet you."

The smile of this strange young lady looked awkward, and the faint panic between her brows made her look like a frightened fawn, "I also know it's not good to bother you now."

Her voice became lower and lower, "But this is the order of Her Royal Highness, I cannot disobey... Please, please come..." After she finished speaking, she left in a panic without even introducing herself.

Celeste looked at her back and closed the door expressionlessly.

"Are you going?"

He sat down on the sofa again and picked up the small telescope on the low table.At this time, Escrit asked in a very soft voice: "Are you going to meet Princess Nali?"

"What?" The music had already sounded, covering Escrit's voice. Celeste looked back at him. Although he couldn't hear him clearly, he could roughly guess what he said just now.

His Excellency the Duke snorted arrogantly: "No."

It was because of the favor of the old king that he forced himself to endure Princess Nali's waywardness.Otherwise, Princess Nali will go to the king to sue him.But now he is not afraid of this.

The current king is Neuss, and he will not be partial to Princess Nali regardless.

Celeste reached out and held Escrit's hand, and said slowly: "I have agreed to accompany you tonight. I will not break my promise."

Escrit smiled: "But, if you don't go, the lady just now might be blamed."

"What does that have to do with me?"

Celeste looked at Escrit inexplicably, wondering why he suddenly became so considerate of others.

"When she chooses to curry favor with Princess Nali, she should consider the consequences. She deserves it."

Duke Ulysses said mercilessly: "Anyway, it won't be a big deal. Didn't I often scold you before, don't you sit here now?"
