Through the snow-covered alleys, Livya's chest became warmer as she listened to the creaking sounds coming from the soles of her feet.
The winter in the north is always the same, the sky is dark and gloomy, like a stone slab pressing on the heads of everyone; the earth is shrouded in white snow, and everything has lost its original color.
Coupled with the cold and hunger that comes with it, it is hard not to make people bored.
But she saw a color that never existed in the past.
The color is even brighter than the rainbow light, and even in this whistling season, it is as eye-catching as the stars of heaven and earth.
The closer you get to it, the more impatient Livya is.
The end of the light pointed directly at the cabin she rented.
If it weren't for the sake of a livelihood, she wouldn't even want to leave it one step further
That was her child.
The crystallization of her and Goron Wimbledon.
With him, she felt like she had the whole world.
Thinking of this, Lifuya couldn't help but get a little faster.
However, when she turned into the last alley, her heart was suddenly grabbed.
I saw more than ten more footprints on the snow-white ground. From the direction, they walked into this place from another alley and broke straight into the entrance of the courtyard.
And she temporarily lived in this courtyard.
The neighbors here are all ordinary people. Not to mention the evil moon, even in spring and summer, there are few guests coming. Why do so many footprints appear in vain?
Suddenly, Lifuya felt dizzy in her head, and then an indescribable fear surged into her heart.
No, calm down... She kept telling herself that maybe it was just a bunch of robbers who came to rob, or the refugees who had wandered here seemed to be equally bad to outsiders, and it was her last hope.
But when he walked into the compound with a trembling trembling first glance, even this glimmer of hope no longer existed.
The door of the house she rented was full of patrolmen in soft armor. One of them was dressed in a knight, and the badge on his chest represented him from the Kant family who ruled the north.
No!
Lifuya burst out from somewhere, throwing the milk cake she had finally bought in her arms, lowered her head and rushed towards the door!
At that moment, she was ready to be killed.
There is no need for the other party to take action. As long as you draw out the long sword and block it in front of her, she will hit her head on it!
But unexpectedly, they seemed indifferent to her appearance, but just opened her body slightly and made her rush straight into the room.
The threshold tripped Livya, who was panicking, and the cold ground tore her cloth skirt like a millstone, but the pain from her knees was insignificant.
She crawled into the small bedroom with tears in her face. When she wanted to see the child for the last time, she found that the expected scene did not appear.
A green-haired woman sat at the head of the bed, teasing her child with expressionless face, while the nanny who usually helps take care of the child respectfully stood aside, as if the other person was the real person.
Then the woman raised her head and glanced at her for a moment, making Livya understand that this person and herself are definitely not in the same category. Although she has an unforgettable appearance, she can connect her with common women.
Gentle, weak, charming, sensual... Those words that belong to women are not suitable for her. Even if she holds the child, there is no trace of maternal light in her eyes.
Rather than saying she is teasing the child, she is teasing a toy.
When we first met, the other party slowly spoke, "My name is Itis Kant, you should have heard my name."
Lifuya, the North Pearl, was shocked. She was the eldest daughter of Duke Kant, the strange woman who was rumored to lead the knights to charge into battle?
The name of pearl is well known to everyone in the northern border, and even Ge Long has mentioned her many times.
Some even say that she is harder to deal with than the Duke herself.
Having seen an adult, Livya swallowed, leaned down and touched the tunnel with her head. Is it your arrival this time?
Itis waved his hand, and the nanny beside him immediately saluted, then left the bedroom, and closed the door while leaving.
At this point, she already understood that the nanny she found was arranged by Kant's family.
They had long discovered the secrets in their children.
After a long story short, I came here under the entrusted by His Majesty the King and brought the blood of the Wimbledon family back to Wudong City.
Then... secretly executed him?Livya said with difficulty.
If it was just to erase his existence, it would be fine wherever it was, and there was no need to be so much effort. Itis untied the cloth on the child's head and exposed the shallow gray hair. His Majesty needed a reason to hide his purpose, that's all.
Lifuya couldn't help but be stunned. She really couldn't understand what the other person said. Sir, I... don't quite understand...
This matter is not as complicated as you think. Northland Pearl shrugged, have you heard of the witch?
……
After listening to the other party’s story, Lifuya took a long time to connect the two things, and the conclusion she got was even more incredible than a fantasy!
Roland Wimbledon decided to marry a witch, so he planned to pull Goron's children out to calm public opinion?
She didn't understand the various aristocrats very well, but she felt that this method was too contrary to common sense based on her intuition.
The other party is the king. Is it really necessary to do this?
She gritted her teeth and plucked up the courage, "Sir, please forgive me for not believing that your Majesty has such an idea now, but it does not mean that it will be the case in the future. If anything happens, Xie Luohe...
Xie Luo?Is it the child's name?Itis raised his eyebrows. You didn't seem to understand your situation. Your Majesty's order was absolute.You have only two choices, take a sum of money and fly away, no longer ask about this, or follow him to Wudong City, but you can no longer show up in the name of his mother, but a servant of a noble family.
Lifuya felt tears flowing in her eyes again. Yes, her identity is too humble to be a member of the royal family. Who will take care of him on my behalf?
No one.
Eh?She raised her head suddenly, and the tears flowed into the corners of her mouth.
Your Majesty is not that inhumane. If you choose the latter, except for changing your identity, everything else has not changed from now. You can still stay by his side and watch him grow up.That aristocratic family has been destroyed by the attack of the church, and Goron's fiancée entrusts the child to you before she dies. The above is the whole story.Itis paused. In addition, the news has been announced in other territories, and the North is no exception. Just wait for two or three days and you will be able to hear the full content of this news.If he wants to get rid of you, why should he make a big fuss?
The Northern Pearl means... Is Your Majesty doing this mainly to make her feel at ease?
Lifuya pressed her chest, and the scene of that night appeared in her mind. She was desperate and found him, who was still the fourth prince at the time, and the other party did lend a helping hand to her.
Although he might have an ulterior motive, if it weren't for this, she would have died under the pub owner's murder.
She took a deep breath, wiped her face, and stood up from the ground.
Her kneeling position made her legs numb, but she still controlled her body. Lord Beidi Pearl, may I ask... Does this child have a chance to become king?
No.A trace of fun flashed in Itis's eyes. His Majesty specifically explained before setting off that you would not have to have fantasies, and there would be no hope, and there would be no disappointment.Of course, this is prohibited from being spread.
No, sir, I will not be disappointed that I can let him grow up safely, which is my greatest wish.Lifuya's voice became slower and slower, as if every word had to use all its strength, but this never solved the problem of His Majesty's heir.If he changes his mind in the future and decides to establish a real crown prince, the latter will definitely regard Xie Luo as a thorn in his side, and by then, he may not be able to survive!She looked directly at the other person and said word by word, "I know I can't change anything, but if you can't tell me a reasonable answer, please kill me here!"
oh?Itis narrowed his eyes.
It was a bloodthirsty smell.
In front of the other side, she was as weak as a lamb.
But even so, Livya still stood up and said without giving in. If not, this day would sooner or later become a reality.I can't do it, sir!
Of course there will be no answer. Even if there is, there is no need for the other party to tell a humble maid. All she can do is this... Sorry, Goron, Livya closed her eyes, waiting for the blade to cut the coldness of her throat, sorry... Dear.
As if feeling the upcoming farewell, the child woke up from his sleep and cried.
She tried her best to stop her from opening her eyes.
She was afraid that as long as she took a look, she would never make this decision again.
However, this attack has not arrived for a long time.
Until Itis chuckled, yes.
Livya looked at the other person in disbelief.
Then North Pearl opened her mouth and silently gave the answer.
It was an even more incredible answer, even beyond her imagination, but for some reason, she believed the other person's words.
Perhaps when she fell into the vortex, even a straw would become a hope for life, let alone her who was almost drowned.
Rather than being convinced by the other party, she convinced herself.
Itis threw the crying child to Livya, turned around and walked out the door, set off in three days, and prepare to get off his luggage.
Lord... Just as she passed by, she murmured, there was a tavern owner in Yougu Town and an unknown guard in His Royal Highness Goron, who might know about this.
I will deal with it myself, you don't have to worry.Itis said without looking back.
When North Pearl left, Livya hugged the child tightly, as if she was afraid that he would disappear, and the latter calmed down and buried her head in her chest.
With a violent heartbeat, she couldn't help asking herself, is that really possible?
During the silent conversation, she clearly saw the answer the other party said.
It was a simple word, but it had a fascinating magic.
eternal life.
This is the king's answer.
The winter in the north is always the same, the sky is dark and gloomy, like a stone slab pressing on the heads of everyone; the earth is shrouded in white snow, and everything has lost its original color.
