Chapter 230
Gazef lowered his head, not daring to look more; with Princess Lana's status and fame, if he stared too much, it might cause a bad influence.
"Princess." Reynas didn't have so many worries; after bowing, she raised her head again.
Princess Lana walked over with light steps like a pure flower, her face full of a gentle and somewhat shy smile: "Warrior Captain, there is no need for that."
"Did I disturb you two?"
Her clear voice carried a hint of curiosity and teasing.
Gazef, who was just about to raise his head to respond, lowered his head again and hurriedly responded: "No disturbance... uh, I mean, Miss Reynas and I weren't chatting about anything just now."
"I thought I might be able to hear something."
Princess Lana muttered to herself, her tone carrying a bit of disappointed gossip.
The muttering wasn't loud.
But with Reynas and Gazef's hearing, they could obviously hear it clearly.
Reynas's exquisite face remained expressionless, her golden hair reaching past her waist tied at the ends, emitting a unique fragrance.
This made Gazef, who was standing to the side facing two beautiful women, look somewhat embarrassed.
"Then, Warrior Captain, we'll be going first." Princess Lana stretched out her slender fingers, tugged on Reynas's sleeve, and smiled innocently and cutely.
Following the disappearance of the two beautiful figures.
Gazef finally raised his head, reached out to scratch his nose, and his embarrassed expression gradually faded.
On the other side.
On the long corridor carved with exquisite patterns, Princess Lana walked in the very front, her white dress fluttering slightly with her steps.
Reynas followed closely behind, watching Princess Lana's figure, her lustrous lips pursed; she was somewhat surprised that Princess Lana would actually appear here, looking as if she were waiting for her specifically.
Could it be that she wanted to ask about the purpose of Ramposa III summoning her and Gazef?
But during the walk, Princess Lana had no intention of asking at all.
Instead, she would discuss the taste of the pastries provided by the court today from time to time, as well as which flower on the sides of the corridor was more beautiful and other such stories.
Another point.
Reynas also noticed that the other party seemed to be in a good mood during this period of time.
"What's wrong, Reynas?" Princess Lana stopped, blinking her deep blue eyes, looking at Reynas with ignorance and curiosity.
"It's like this, Princess; His Majesty, considering the defeat on the battlefield with the Empire this year, intends to form two legions."
Reynas paused her steps and spoke softly and directly; her current identity was an Imperial person who defected to Princess Lana, so there was naturally no need to hide such things:
"One led by me and one by Gazef, with three thousand people each."
"How amazing, Reynas."
Princess Lana clasped her hands together in front of her chest, a happy expression appearing on her face.
That kind of smile wasn't because her subordinate had gained the right to recruit a legion, but purely because she was happy that Reynas herself was being valued.
At least that was what the "smile" expressed.
"So, I'm somewhat troubled." Reynas shook her smooth golden hair and sighed lightly.
Forming a legion sounded simple, but just recruiting people was a very complicated issue; Reynas guessed that Gazef's recruitment situation should have Ramposa III's secret support.
As for her?
From the moment she chose Princess Lana, she essentially rejected both the "Pro-King Faction" and the "Noble Faction."
And under Reynas's observation, Princess Lana's side indeed didn't have any force support.
"Reynas, is it because of the problem of recruiting people?"
Princess Lana spoke understandingly, and after thinking slightly: "Indeed, wanting to recruit excellent soldiers isn't simple, and Reynas doesn't have any fief or connections here."
Speaking of this, Princess Lana lowered her head slightly, seemingly somewhat ashamed because she couldn't help Reynas.
"It's okay, Your Highness."
Facing Princess Lana's pitiful appearance, even Reynas, who always acted like a cold iceberg, couldn't help but soften her expression and hurriedly spoke.
Princess Lana could guess the reason for this, and Reynas wasn't surprised.
The title "Golden" didn't just describe Princess Lana's appearance; it also described the other party's flexible mind.
During this period, besides observing Princess Lana, Reynas also attended quite a few noble banquets and naturally could inquire about quite a bit of information regarding Princess Lana.
What the other party was most talked about and mocked for by nobles was proposing many measures considering the common people at the bottom of society and strengthening national power.
And these proposals were almost all rejected because of various loopholes and unrealistic situations.
But Princess Lana's kind heart shown through was known to the common people and deeply moved them; this was another layer of meaning to the title "Golden."
Analyzing just from this information.
Reynas also couldn't help but be filled with good feelings for Princess Lana from the bottom of her heart, but once she thought of the master's description of this Princess.
This made Reynas have to raise a trace of vigilance.
Reynas knew the master's strength and mystery all too well, and a princess who could be seriously praised by the master, and compared to the Bloody Emperor...
Thinking of this.
Reynas suppressed the thoughts and emotions rising in her heart.
"By the way, Reynas, I invited Brother Zanac to be a guest today; maybe he has a way."
Princess Lana seemed to remember something, raised her head again, happily put her fair arms behind her back, and smiled at Reynas.
Zanac?
The Second Prince?
Reynas was stunned for a moment, and the words the master said to her before leaving suddenly flashed through her mind.
【No need to do extra actions; just hand the problem to that Princess, and she will find a solution for us.】
Hum!
Her mind shook. Looking at Princess Lana's innocent and lively smile before her, Reynas's lips parted slightly, revealing a small section of pearl-white teeth, and a trace of horror rose inexplicably in her heart.
Regarding the matter of forming a legion, Ramposa III only notified some noble members to discuss and decide today, and only after getting the result did he tell the two of them this news.
That is to say, until today, no one should have known about forming a legion!
And Princess Lana had invited the Second Prince in advance; if one thought deeply, Princess Lana had already known this result long before today.
Thinking of this.
Reynas's pupils couldn't help but shrink.
No!
There was one more person who knew in advance, and that was the master; thinking of all the other party's arrangements, it seemed he had long anticipated that the Kingdom would form a legion.
"Phew~" Reynas let out a light breath, and the tense feeling in her heart relaxed a lot.
If Tang Zheng knew that Reynas was comparing him to Princess Lana, he would definitely be somewhat helpless; he had completely deduced the result through the plot.
While the other party had guessed it completely relying on her own wisdom.
Princess Lana's eyes, curved like crescent moons, swept smilingly over the change in expression that appeared on Reynas's face for a breath, and she withdrew her gaze as if she hadn't noticed.
【Note: No errors in content, keep reading!】
It was just that the small action of her mouth curling slightly upward seemed to be teasing a cute little animal.
"Let's go, let's go back to the palace first."
Princess Lana turned around, and her gentle voice drifted over.
"Princess, are we not going to check on the situation at Climb's side today?" Reynas seemed to think of something and asked softly while following her steps.
After following Princess Lana, Reynas accidentally learned of the existence of such a person; it was said to be a slave boy picked up by Princess Lana.
It was said that he only had one breath left at the beginning.
He was taken care of by people sent by Princess Lana for more than half a year before his body was completely adjusted, which showed Princess Lana's concern for him.
Reynas had seen him a few times; if she had to evaluate him, he was just a very ordinary boy.
"Not going for now, Reynas. Don't keep Brother Zanac waiting too long." Princess Lana spoke softly.
"Yes."
Reynas nodded.
What she didn't know was that since joining Princess Lana's side, Princess Lana's concern for Climb's side was far less frequent than before.
On the front that Reynas couldn't see.
In Princess Lana's innocent, deep blue eyes, a monster-like excited expression flashed for a moment.
"Who on earth is it,"
"That actually sent such a cute little animal to my side."
"I'm so looking forward to it."
Princess Lana's eyes returned to normal, and she continued walking forward along the corridor.
After picking up Climb, the other party's eyes made Princess Lana feel a trace of satisfaction, but after Reynas appeared, this satisfaction became even more intense.
Of course!
The satisfaction didn't come from Reynas, but from the master behind Reynas.
Being able to control a powerful and proud woman like Reynas and send the other party to her side.
Princess Lana felt a kind of invisible confrontation across space; the feeling of being understood and recognized made Princess Lana tremble all over.
"Hmm~"
Princess Lana's white dress trembled slightly with her body, and she let out a faint moan.
Reynas looked at Princess Lana in front somewhat strangely.
Lower Earth Month.
December 20th.
Even though it was noon, the cloudy sky made the light of the entire world very dim.
Bean-sized raindrops fell onto the ground, forming a water mist, blurring the line of sight ahead and shrouding the entire capital "Re-Estize."
A carriage drove out from the rain mist, the wheels driving rapidly on the muddy road, throwing up a series of mud water.
The Evil Spirit Dog pulled the carriage toward the massive capital ahead; the dense rain dripped along its smooth black fur, but didn't soak its body.
The obstruction of sight formed by the heavy rain didn't affect the Evil Spirit Dog at all.
The originally open carriage was now wrapped in circles of plant vines flashing with a pale green light, blocking the intrusion of the rain.
Inside the carriage.
Anri looked through the gaps in the vines toward the capital, which was somewhat blurry in the rain mist, her eyes full of anticipation and curiosity.
As a citizen of the Re-Estize Kingdom, Anri had only heard of the capital before but had never been there; or rather, let alone the capital, even the border city "E-Rantel."
If it weren't for following the lord, she might only have a chance to go there in the future.
"After traveling for more than ten days, we finally reached the capital." Tang Zheng straightened his back, stretched, and spoke with a chuckle.
I wonder how things are going on Reynas and Imina's sides; this trip to the capital, besides seeing the two and arranging the next things.
It was also to leave a magic mark, so it would be convenient to use teleportation magic later.
