Dressed as Snow White's Stepmother

The scenery in front of him changed, and Payne had already arrived at the entrance of the dwarves' cave.

Different from the dark cave entrances in the past, the dwarves are covered with all kinds of shiny and luminous gemstones, as well as all kinds of cute decorations.

Percy and Sleepy Bug were waiting at the entrance of the cave. Percy stepped forward to take the cloak that Payne took off and explained, "Your arrival is a surprise. His Majesty Arnold was afraid that he would let Snow White know about his arrival, so he is waiting for you in the palace." .”

Payne nodded, he didn't care about these little things anyway: "Long time no see, Percy." He turned his head and greeted Sleepy.A group of people quietly marched towards the palace.

Along the way, Percy was reporting to Payne what Snow White had learned in the past few days: "His Royal Highness's swordsmanship has improved rapidly, and horsemanship and archery are also improving day by day." Speaking of this, he turned his head and glanced at Payne, "It's just that ...His Highness misses you very much, and needs to sleep with the little rabbit you gave him every night. He often wakes up in the middle of the night, and his spirit is not very good recently."

Payne felt sorry for Baixue when he heard about it, but he couldn't let Marjorie take care of her. After all, the old prime minister was secretly monitoring Marjorie's movements.He could only sigh: "Bai Xue will become a qualified heir, I believe."

The scenery on the road is basically the same as the last time I came, but Payne found that many shops and houses have many more bright colors and cute patterns, even a pink rabbit is added to the signboard of a weapon shop .

Seeing that Payne turned his head to look at the rabbit, the sleepy man explained that since Baixue arrived in the dwarf kingdom, everyone has loved Baixue very much.But the dwarves don't have any beautiful decorations on weekdays. The rabbits and various colors are all suggested by Bai Xue.

It turns out that Snow White has already won the love of the dwarves, Payne thought so, and couldn't help but quicken his pace—he missed that cute little angel even more.

Finally, we reached the palace.A group of people hurried in through the side door, barely disturbing the people in the palace.There are many dwarves coming and going in the corridors of the palace, including servants, nobles and commoners.Sleepyhead said that the dwarves are a very united race, and their banquets are generally open to everyone.

That's right, Payne thought that everyone danced together in Frozen.Sleepyhead said that the venue of the banquet is the square at the entrance of the palace, and the fountain will be activated at that time, which is very spectacular.

Spectacular?Payne thought of the small fountain he passed by and saw, and he was a little noncommittal. I would not be surprised if I have seen various musical fountain performances!Seemingly seeing Payne's indifference, Percy wanted to explain, but was quietly stopped by the sleepy bug, which meant--wait a minute and let him see.

At the door of Bai Xue's bedroom, there was a faint voice inside: "Your Majesty Arnold, what surprise are you talking about?"

"Hahaha, I can't tell you now, otherwise it wouldn't be a surprise." The dwarf king's bold voice penetrated the thick door panel.

The sleepy man bent over to indicate that his mission was completed and left. Percy walked to the door and knocked lightly, only to hear Arnold say, "Haha, your surprise gift has arrived!"

Bai Xue looked at the door curiously, but it was a pity that the dwarf king's huge body blocked it tightly, and he could only see half of Percy's face, so he shrank back in disappointment.

And Payne's vision is very good, and Bai Xue's appearance sitting on the bed can be seen clearly: Bai Xue seems to have grown up a bit, and her curly black hair has also grown long, with a cute low ponytail tied behind her head, It is also decorated with a dark blue bow.He was wearing a luxurious white dress, the edges were embroidered with gold thread, and the dress was still shining with silver light under the light.Bai Xue looked more like a little prince than when he was in the palace, and Payne suddenly felt a sense of loss as a child.

Percy didn't disappoint Snow White for too long. After Payne exchanged a few words with the dwarf king, he and the dwarf king stepped aside together, and Payne's figure appeared at the door.

When Payne said with a smile: "Bai Xue.", Bai Xue seemed to be shocked, and she trembled before turning her head slowly.After confirming that it was Payne, he rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

It's really the queen mother!My mother celebrated my birthday later!Bai Xue cheered, and flew into Payne's arms like a bird.

Payne also welcomed Bai Xue with open arms, but he didn't expect that the days of being imprisoned for the past few months would still have some impact on him.It wasn't obvious that she was wearing a slightly gorgeous palace dress, but Bai Xue's momentum, like a small cannonball, directly made Payne sit on the ground.

Feeling that she was not firmly caught by the queen mother and raised high like before, Bai Xue who threw herself on the ground raised her head strangely.Payne covered his face silently, and I started to practice push-ups and irons when I got back.

Percy, who didn't take a closer look at Payne because of time constraints, also saw the problem at this time. Payne was much thinner than when they parted.It turned out that it couldn't be seen under the cover of the moonlight and palace clothes, but I didn't expect the queen to be tortured like this by the prime minister.

It was a dereliction of duty as a courtier. As soon as Percy withdrew his right leg, he knelt down on one knee, scaring Payne and the others.Percy said in pain: "It's my incompetence that I can't save Her Royal Highness the Queen from the palace..." As he spoke, tears welled up from his eyes.

Payne had no choice but to put down Bai Xue, pretending that nothing happened, but Percy's kneeling forced him to face up to his neglect of exercise.Thinking of the fact that Magic Mirror inadvertently said two days ago that he saw that Payne's abdominal muscles had begun to disappear, Payne added another training plan for the abdominal muscle tearer in his mind.

Bai Xue was very happy to see that Payne really came to his birthday party. He talked to Payne how obedient these days, and he was still studying hard.Payne was also very happy when he heard that, after all, he was waiting for Bai Xue to come back to save him.Always encourage Bai Xue to say that you are really good, Bai Xue is really a good baby.

Percy, who was walking behind them, couldn't help becoming suspicious when he heard Bai Xue say that he was very obedient. He had actually lost a lot of weight these days.Since Bai Xue was rescued by him to the dwarf country, she couldn't sleep well every night, and she was not so obedient as she seemed. Percy fought wits and courage with him.The way Bai Xue acted like a baby in Payne's arms now was very different from when she was teaching him swordsmanship.

The banquet started with the arrival of Baixue, and all the dwarves cheered when they saw Payne appearing with Baixue in his arms.The band started to play, and the cheerful music echoed in the auditorium.The dwarves danced in pairs, and Penn was invited by Percy.

Well, Payne thought, let's take this opportunity to explain to Percy.

Seeing Penn and Percy enter to dance, the dwarves gave them the center, and Snowy sat eating and watched Penn waltz on the dance floor.

Percy's hand gently supported Payne's waist. Payne was looking for an excuse to reject Percy, but he didn't expect Percy to speak first: "Payne... please forgive my abruptness before." He didn't respond as usual. Instead of addressing Payne as Her Royal Highness, she called him by his first name, "My admiration for you before must have made it difficult for you."

Payne: "No, no..." It's over, how can I answer this question, it's too embarrassing.

And Percy didn't know if he noticed it or not, and he talked to himself.Said that his feelings for Payne may be love at first sight, or it may be a mistake.But after experiencing so many things, he found that his feelings for Payne had also changed from a love obsession to a friendship with his comrades. He hoped that Payne would have the opportunity to leave this palace and show himself in a wider place.

Payne:  …

Thousands of words, turned into one: "Thank you."

The banquet also reached its climax, everyone sang and danced, from the hall of the palace through the gate, all the way to the square.

After dancing a song, Payne returned to Snow White.Bai Xue put her arms around Payne's neck and said that she missed her mother so much, could she stay with her.

Payne patted Baixue's head helplessly: "Only tonight." Hearing Payne's words, Percy hesitated to speak, and finally said nothing under Payne's firm eyes.

It was almost midnight, and everyone gathered around the fountain in the square.

five four three two one......

What spewed out of the fountain was not water, but countless shining gems!I don't know what kind of technology the dwarves used to collect the debris of the gemstones, and then put them in the fountain to replace the water.

Bai Xue was very happy. He closed his eyes and made a wish: I hope that my mother and queen can be by my side like this on my next birthday.After making a wish, the fountain ignited fireworks, and countless gem fragments exploded above the head, illuminating the gemstones on the wall of the cave, like a starry sky.

The dwarves danced round and round hand in hand, and everyone sang and laughed.Bai Xue was also taken away by Percy, laughing together among the crowd.

At this time, the dwarf king came to Payne: "Recently...the prime minister has changed a lot."

Payne nodded: "I found out that before the autumn hunting, the homeless and some outsiders in the royal city mysteriously disappeared."

The dwarf king looked at the people dancing in the square: "Do you know... monsters?"

"The prime minister may have a powerful mage by his side. I suspect it's the dead witch." Payne simply said that he had already understood the situation of the monster disaster back then.

Unexpectedly, the dwarf king shook his head: "There are still some mistakes..." He didn't continue, but changed the topic, "Do you know how long a dwarf lives?"

Payne guessed: "More than 100 years? 200 years?"

The dwarf king smiled: "It used to be...but now, the dwarves are immortal, like a curse."

eternal life?Wouldn't that be nice, how could it be a curse?Payne was a little puzzled.

"Because the dwarves will never have new life." The dwarf king looked at his subjects and said, "that's why they quickly accepted Bai Xue, because... the dwarves have had no children for too long gone."

Don't have children, Payne thought of countless situations, such as dwarf genetic defects, and radiation due to mining.Before he could say anything, the dwarf king had already said that it was because of the disaster of the dwarves.

1000 years ago, there was a mixed dwarf king who inherited the throne of dwarves and elves.His name was Ruberia, and during his reign the dwarves and elves were the most powerful race on the continent.Behind the prosperity, there is also a shadow.The dwarves and elves were envied and resisted by other races, and finally after a great war.The elves were all wiped out, leaving only fairies and elves, and the dwarves were also cursed, and no new life was born after they were scattered.

"It is the curse of the king of Ruberia, and it is also the shackles of the dwarves themselves." The dwarf king sighed softly, "The death of the king of Ruberia had a lot to do with the dwarves. The dwarves believe that mixed blood is not It was time to rule himself, so he united with the elves who had the same idea, and assassinated him together. Unexpectedly..."

Unexpectedly, it directly led to his own genocide, Payne answered the words in his heart.These people are really mentally handicapped, they have no ability, they can only engage in assassination, don't you see that there has never been an emperor who rose to power through conspiracy in ancient times.Payne successfully escaped from prison and went to birthday party

The author has something to say: Bai Xue is growing up rapidly, and it is estimated that she will reach adulthood in a few chapters, and she can finally write the little mother in the copywriting. (although it may be poorly written)
